The Haunted House set has a really interesting story. It's shown from the painting that the house was owned by Baron Von Barron the main villian of the old Lego Adventures line, which explains all of the historic trinkets littered throughout. The Pharoah hidden in the painting is implied to be a curse Barron set on himself after taking these trinkets from the Pharoah's tomb, that may or may not have eventually killed him.
It boggled me why Monster Fighters never got its own TV series the same as Ninjago, Chimera or even Unikitty. A LEGO set that paid homage to the Universal Monsters with a twist sounds like a cool concept.
This might possibly be my new favorite episode between seeing all these amazing labors of love in the Lego sets, to watching Strider cook in the sponsorship, and then watching Nin, other guy, and Animerica annoy Strider, this was start to finish one fun episode! 🤩
I really love the small little details that are put into these little sets. Especially sets like the venom set look absolutely awesome when fully built. Awesome Video Strider!
In Japan, the PG-12 rating is even more harsh than most PG/PG-13 ratings in other countries. For example, the extreme gorefest psychological horror film The End of Evangelion (complete with nudity and the infamous hospital scene) was only rated G in Japan.
@@JustaHedgehoginSonicBoom Yeah. Japan thought that The End of Evangelion was okay for all ages. It actually takes a lot to get a film or show a PG-12 rating in Japan. Let alone an R15+ or R18+ rating. But I don’t know how The End of Evangelion got a G rating. Demon Slayer: Mugen Train was not nearly as gruesome or frightening, and it got a PG-12.
The Halloween and spooky genres of LEGO sets have always been some of my favorite, I always have at least one set saved to build for Halloween! The Monster Fighters sets are unfortunately not in my collection, maybe one day. I'll have to save this video for later to add some more sets to my collection! 🥰🥰🥰
For the Nightmare Before Christmas set, I believe she referred to it as "spoopy", which is different from spooky in that it leans more on being friendly and cute than actually, genuinely horrifying
Yeah, I never knew Nin was someone who believes all Halloween sets are automatically scary, even though as Strider mentions, that isn't always the case anymore.
You know what the Upside-down set makes me think of? Does anyone remember that "Wizards of Waverly Place" episode where Alex wanted to paint that mural design with the city up top and the sewer at the bottom, but everyone was walking over her? That
Horror and monster themed LEGO sets have always been my favorite kinds of LEGOs, even when i was a small kid. They felt so dark and unnerving in a toy franchise known for being kid-friendly and colorful, that they just made me happy to see their simple yet spooky designs.
Fun fact, ghosts are often depicted as being covered in a sheet because people used to be buried in burial shrouds, which were often just cloth sheets (not bedsheets).
And on that note, I don’t think PhantomStrider needs to worry too much about the ghost designs. I doubt a lot of people would mistake the classic ‘bedsheet ghost’ as depicted by LEGO for the, well, you know. These pretend monsters don’t have long pointy hoods like the real life ones.
@@knightofarkronia9968 also the problem-club based their designs on sheet-ghosts, which predated them by centuries, like many such groups they had no imagination of their own and stole from pre-existing media.
A couple of quick things regarding some sets on this list: 1) The Venom set was noted to be almost identical to the one they did for Carnage, and as someone who owns both (and as a fan of these 2 villains from Spider-Man), I feel this was likely done intentionally as homage to the fact that Carnage is actually Venom's "spawn", if you will. You see, when Vemon was defeated the first time, his symbiote was sent into space with the hopes of being rid of it for good, but it later returned, and came back with the Carnage symbiote as it reproduced while in space. 2) The spider us pronounced "she-lob", as it's specifically a female spider. Gollum intended to have her eat Frodo and Sam to get rid of them and claim the ring for himself afterwards; of particular note, this took place at the end of the second book, the two towers, but when they were adapted into movies, it was moved to the third film, most likely due to time issues while filming (if I had to guess). Also, I'm pretty sure the side build with that set that is used to catapult Gollum was added purely as an extra play feature, as Gollum himself never actually got involved with this past leading the Hobbits to Shelob; as I mentioned earlier, he intended to let them be eaten by her
I love a lot of the set designs featured in this video. 😁 The way you got upset during the honorable mentions part was so relatable. 😅😂 Also, the painting featured in the Haunted House is a great homage to Lego Adventurers. Featuring the big bad of the series as well as the mummy. 😁
If you're looking for suggestions for another Lego list, they've been making a lot of plant themed sets. I have 2, a Lego Bonsai with two themes included, traditional and cherry blossom (I went with the latter), and a Lego Bouquet. It has a bit over a dozen pieces that you can arrange in a vase (not included) but looks quite good. Even capable of convincing you they're real at a distance. I've also seen dried flower arrangements, wildflower bouquet, orchids, and succulents among others.
I had two of them: the one with the Werewolf and the one with the Crazy Scientist and his Monster. Edit: I just remembered that I also had a third set: the one with the Swamp Creature.
I only recently discovered the Lego Hidden Side sets through your vids and I absolutely adore the theme, it's really disappointing that it didn't take off cause I'd have loved to see them build on the haunted town theme more
That being said, I strongly disagree with the ghost hoods being problematic, personally I just don't see that connection and think the sheet ghost design looks cute
Personally, I used to absolutely LOVE the Monster Fighters sets! They were so creative, expansive just the right amount of horror without become "gory" or gruesome! You got to actually fight the legendary monsters and see all their spectacle and power come to life! The "Moonstones" aspect of the sets really gave it more of a feeling of underlying mystery and lore surrounding these horror legends. The Lego Studios Scary Laboratory & Vampire Crypt are old classics and somewhat "primitive", and I think that's why it looks so scary. It's made with what they had at the time, and it works! Even Dr. Frankenstein's face here is stretched unnaturally! The Vampire's eyes are missing that "glint of friendliness", which makes it look much more otherworldly.
I can call a face ugly, I can call CGI ugly, and I can call costumes ugly. But I can't call them scary. I had the Vampyre Crypt Studio as a kid. It was also among the many LEGO sets, to my regret, I took for granted. I wouldn't call anything else on this list creepy or scary, but I see the artistic value. I like your skits, too. Though it sounds otherwise, Nin's cameo ends the video with a bang.
18:41 Hey strider! just wanted to point out, because its an easy mistake to make. "Macabre" is actually pronounced like "Muh-Cobb". like corn-on-the-cob. you probably wont see this, but hey, if you do, love the vids!
Hey Strider. Kids and I love your content. 🙂🙂🙂 Just thought I'd respond to your point referring to the Venom LEGO set. Whoever made the complaint that it looks too much like Carnage absolutely missed the point. I'll explain. Carnage is the offspring of Venom. It was an offshoot or leftover from the original symbiote to make contact with Cletus Kasady and his blood. So if they are similar, it's both by design and comic accurate. So there's no reason for anyone to make that take reasonable if they took the time to access the source material. Hopefully this helps. Have a great day 🙂!
Hey strider, since you’ve mentioned the FNAF games a few times in your videos, I’d be interested in you doing a video on the best FNAF fan games. I know you talked about one in your SpongeBob horror games video, and the community could use some positivity in light of recent events.
RIGHT?! I don't know where the heck this dude's head was at when he compared them to freaking KKK hoods. That's about as asinine as you get there, and this was the same dude that went on a tirade about a company's slogan of Life's Good!🤦🏾♂️
My favorite thing about Lego is the DC Villains game. There's a custom setup where you can make the Postal Dude! It's got Lobo too, my favorite anti hero.
It's a common misconception regarding Frankenstein. First you think that Frankenstein is the monster. Then you learn Frankenstein is the doctor. Then you realize Frankenstein *is* the monster.
Strider: All of these builds are particularly unsettling given the atmosphere that they all create with their exterior designs, interior decorations, and facial expressions on all of the mini figures. Everyone else: BIG BUG EYE ANIMALS AND DARK CHRISTMAS MOVIE SCARY.
Another great ranking video, Strider. Also I have a fun suggestion you... how about doing a lego ranking video based on the top ten Sony Picture movies that should be molded into a Lego set, take Cloudy with a chance of meatballs 1 or 2, Goosebumps, the Hotel Transylvania franchise just to name a few. I think that one would be a lot of fun! 🙂👏👏💀
Great video about the top 10 scariest LEGO sets, Strider! 👍 But did you know that the only OTHER scary LEGO set that you’re MISSING is LEGO Mario? A lot people said that the electronic LEGO Mario figures looked CREEPY when you turned them OFF.
ah, talk about a blast from my past. I loved the monster fighter series and actually have the vampire's hearse. almost every set was beautifully gothic and soaking in every classic horror trope and monster that makes my vampire loving heart flutter. I was always sad that the series was short lived and that I was never able to get the castle. Also, while the movie itself may not be scary (though one of my personal favorites) it can't be denied that nightmare before christmas is dripping in horror aesthetic which the lego set captured masterfully.
hey strider! I’m a big fan, I’ve watched literally all your SpongeBob and Lego reviews!😂 and that actually gave me an idea. maybe you could make a video about ranking the top 10 SpongeBob lego sets?? I’d love it! and I’m sure many others would too!
Monster Fighters could've been a huge hit, and perfect for older kids. But on the other hand, we also have a limited-time only 2011 ghost set reviewed by Just2Good(Warning: the end of the video includes a jumpscare).
I agree with you for all 3 honorable mentions, but also i gotta point out that compared to other disney movies, Nightmare has some stuff that i can see younger audiences being scared by. You can't deny some of the characters aren't grotesque and eerie.
If I had the money and the chance to buy any of these, I’d probably call dibs on one of those spooky train sets, just so I could make some more dumb Thomas jokes 😅
Hello, Phantomstrider! My name is Ian Rodgers, and I live in Round Hill, Virginia! I subscribed to your channel once. And, I have a suggestion for another video that you should do next time. You should make another video about Harry Potter!
You know, I’ve been coming up with ideas for my own LEGO Horror theme! Right now, I’m calling it “LEGO House of Terror.” If you want to know more about it, feel free to ask me!
"Venom is just a repaint of Carnage!" *howls in laughter* That's because Carnage is the *spawn* of Venom, of course they're gonna look similar as constructions as they're family! Read the Comics (or at least watch the 90's cartoon)! XD
Good video, Strider! I personally have the majority of the Monster fighters sets, and the ghost train and the vampire castle are my favorites. Unfortunately, the pieces making up the doors on the rib cage jail car degraded over time and broke when I tried to move the ghost train set. One of the only times I’ve had Lego break on me due to age. I ended up taking the doors off and turning it into a cushy passenger car for the monster elites, but I gave it some jet black T-rex arms for extra creep factor. I gravitated towards this series because of the ghost train set. It really reminded me of the ghost trains in Pumpkin Hill from Sonic Adventure 2, which is one of my favorite levels from my all time favorite game.
I was in elementary when Monster Hunters came out and loved it. Before the Scooby-Doo Lego sets it was my favorite outside of Ninjago, which I was addicted to.
Ah, good old Lego Studios. Talk about a callback to my childhood. While I didn't own many of the sets, I do remember an old game called Backlot, which took place in the Lego Studios universe. It was a fun game that I hope people remember.
I think the LEGO Pirates of the Caribbean set "Silent Mary" should also be on the list. It looks all broken and worn down like you would expect a haunted shipwreck to look. Also, the set has zombie sharks in it. I mean, how many ocean related LEGO sets do you know of that have zombie sharks in them?
I have always loved the depth of expression the lego ghost retains with such a simple face design, and being a fan since the 90s and living in the deep south I can honestly say I've never made an association between the clan and that brick, I 100% think that's a you thing
I'm just now realizing that during the Venom portion of the video, you're playing the helicarrier music from the first Lego Marvel game in the background. Nice touch 👌
The Haunted House set is actually the final set from the LEGO Adventurers line. The portrait of the series villain, Sam Sinister, indicates that this was his house.
10:03 correction, its Sprite your face productions that made the movie, it was commisioned by the LEGO group in 2002, the person who you credited just reuploaded the video.
Another cool reference to Stranger Things in a Lego set is the LGBT rainbow set, the yellow figure has the same hair mold as the Will Byers figure (a gay character from Stranger Things that is represented by yellow by certain details in the show).
The Haunted House set has a really interesting story.
It's shown from the painting that the house was owned by Baron Von Barron the main villian of the old Lego Adventures line, which explains all of the historic trinkets littered throughout. The Pharoah hidden in the painting is implied to be a curse Barron set on himself after taking these trinkets from the Pharoah's tomb, that may or may not have eventually killed him.

I was mindblown when I found this level of lore in Lego sets.
Disturbing isn't always a bad thing.
Sometimes its the intensity and fear that truly makes us feel alive.
Disturbing makes me feel alive

Yes! The Monster Fighters sets are amazing, and I really liked that Monster Fighters game on the Lego website, it brings back so much nostalgia.
The Monster Fighters sets deserve to be in a Museum.

I don't even like lego but I like hearing Strider talk about stuff.
I've recently begun investing in Lego kits and your videos on the subject have given me some great kits to look into. Thanks!
The creepiest thing about #1 is that one of the gravestones in the front has the initials of the former lego designer Tiago Catarino
