- Minecraft creepypastas, Minecraft ARGs, Minecraft Lost Media. All sorts of Internet horror has been adapted into Minecraft in all sorts of ways. In this video, I'm going to cover all of these topics with specific examples and theorize what might come next.
Examples include: Herobrine, Error 422, Don't look at the moon, and Casey's Cave, the most mysterious Minecraft horror series out there.
Minecraft doesn't really need an introduction, does it?
My name is Peter, and I cover strange and interesting video games every single week. Join me in my journey to talk you ear off about every single one!

Yoo thats DjDeadpig
MY DUDE! I didn't expect to see you here! Good god I was shook when I checked the comments and watched on and found you lmao
You famous bro
Who are you?
@@sildude9951 someone who was mentioned in a video
something about playing creative mode as if it was survival feels so cursed
Very true
A god amongst men
Bible
I can tell this is his first time playing minecraft in a a long time
@@OfficialSalad21 hello
Every copy of Herobrine is personalized
Every update “removed herobrine”
As of writing this comment, ScareTheater was live streaming and I mentioned Casey's Cave to him. He said he was very fond of it as part of his childhood. He used to get around 20k views on those vids, which was surprising since he used to only get around 100. I then asked him if he had any of the deleted videos saved, and he said that he didn't. If he did, he wouldn't mind sharing them
Omg
What timestamp was it?
@@DjDeadpig unfortunately, it seems the entire stream doesn't seem to have been archived. Great, now him acknowledging him is also lost media
@@DjDeadpig hey, update: the video was just unlisted. I will post a link to it and hopefully it will stay up

You say Herobrine isn't scary to us anymore but, whenever I'm reminded of him and I'm playing Minecraft, it sends shivers down my spine and makes me go slightly paranoid.
Same thing I'd say about Gmod dark figures tbh.
Even if it's been around 10 years since I learned about Herobrine and I am now 19 years old, it still gets me sometimes.
Oh definitely LMAO. I agree, and I’m 22 XD
Play From the fog, A datapack that adds herobrine the correct way.
@@chaoswhaletv6306 I've seen The Librarian's series on From the Fog, but I don't have the guts to play it myself
There's something about letting yourself intentionally fantasize and be guillable so you can intentionally scare yourself even if you kbow it's not real
@chaoswhaletv6306 I was playing from the fog and forgot I added it (I had like 30 mods) and it scared the shit out of me
Imagine Mojang puts out a secret halloween update, like they do with april fools day, but instead they just add herobrine for a day lmao
One ARG I highly recommend is Minecraft Lilypad, or Minecraft Alpha 1.0.16 Versions.
It's an ARG about how Minecraft at a certain point had a branch of development, leading to other people developing the game in secret. At this point, the game version(that you can play btw!) is so wildly disconnected from Minecraft as a whole that it feels like a whole other game. It makes me so uneasy seeing these other mechanics, and textures, that look like they belong in the game but at the same time.. don't. It's like looking at Minecraft from a parallel univese. It freaks me out. I love it so much.
YES PUH-LEASE! The more people know about that one, the better.
Bible
Yeah it’s pretty cool
@@gadellomagnollo1810 hi
Bible
i remember watching the Casey's Cave series YEARS ago, i remember the final entry ending with a shot of a cave with redstone on the floor (to represent blood) alongside a Steve head by the mess on the floor
Remember the same
Similar to Error 422, there's a mod that translates what people said Herobrine does (stalking you, popping up behind you, making structures, leaving signs, etc.) in a mod called "From The Fog" which is a brilliant mod/datapack that has a resource pack to go along with it.
I had my little "Hovel Base" in the side of a hill, and inside, I had a staircase going down to just about bedrock.
I was mining along, and I could have sworn I heard blocks breaking close by, ones I wasn't mining myself. I shrugged, blamed it on sleep deprivation, and found diamonds shortly after.
In excitement, I ran back to the top of the mine's staircase, and back into my base.
All the torches had been replaced with redstone ones.
@@RedSpade37creepy story
a few months ago I was playing a slightly modded 1.20 world and I was in my mines and I saw a thing for a split second, I almost quit the game, few days later I saw it place a sign and build several pyramids on the other side of a large river from my house
I wasn’t alone.
I was also partial to creative mode. As in blow everything up into smithereens.
I mainly played the console versions which had tutorial worlds. Especially the Wii U version which had a Mario world. It was so much fun to blow up Peach’s castle.
I agree with the points of not making "Minecraft Analog Horror", the medium just doesn't fit, but the route I've seen some more recent series take is the new route of "Digital Horror", similar in idea, but execution including Windows 7, XP, Movie Maker, Unregistered Hypercam 2, whatever else you can think of, it's there.
I remember actually watching Casey's Cave as a kid. I'm pretty sure for a period of time, Scaretheater actually had the channel that Casey's Cave was uploaded to showcased on his main TH-cam page, under that old "Channels" tab that used to exist, and that's how I found out that ScareTheater actually made Casey's Cave. It's a shame to see that it's become lost.
Honestly, I never thought of Herobrine as a creepypasta. I always saw him as a sort of tradition or kind of an inside joke. Also, a friend. I always imagined he watched over you to protect you.
I think one of the reasons Herobrine was so scary compared to other creepypastas was the ability for it to happen to *you*. A common trope of other iconic stories like Sonic.exe and Ben Drowned was "I found this strange second hand copy of the game" or "my friend gave me a weird ROM". Herobrine on the other hand was ambiguous enough that a naïve kid could blame any unexplained glitches in the game as "herobrine is visiting me personally". Not only was it more believable because of the way many people online portrayed him (plus Mojang's sly references that a kid wouldn't understand is a joke), but it was a lot more intimate horror since it was a game basically everyone owned and he wasn't exclusive to a single copy. However I think the Achilles Heel of the myth dates all the way back to the original post, when it claims Herobrine is Notch's dead brother. Such an extremely specific claim could be so easily disproven (and in fact was when Notch tweeted that he had no brothers) which removed some of the potential credibility.
even today i still get creeped out by Minecraft sometimes. sometimes my footsteps are delayed and doubled over. sometimes a leaf texture glitches and it looks like a player in the distance. little things like this when you've been playing on a world for a few hours can really creep you out for a second
Today i went mining and started jumpsprinting back on my tunnel when i coudnt help but felt chased
I felt an unnerving presence behind me all the way back and up the stairs, thank god the tunnel was short
Playing Minecraft alone can sometimes feel like being home alone as a kid
It's rare for an analog horror to interest me, but I love Mystery Flesh Pit National Park. Its free-roam approach to storytelling is fresh
I wouldn't really consider that analog horror since there's no actual video material emulating analog technology, it's more of a historical fiction horror piece shown through old merchandise, photos and other physical media
that part where you talked about FNF kinda came outta nowhere tbh
The take is unfathomably based though
@@lucky7gaming15 lmao
Wait ain't you the cod zombies presidents channel?
@gaming15 i would disagree, while the aesthetic is really hooky (kind of comes with the territory of what kind of game it is) and doesn't work well with the concept of horror, and there is alot of genuine crap to wade through, there is actually some really good stuff in there
Analog horror has developed a more modern offshoot known as digital horror, which focuses on tech and aesthetics from the 2010s
I remember the day they released the first update to minecraft post-herobrine that did not have the "Removed Herobrine" text in the patch notes. Everyone lost their minds and thought Herobrine was back or that Mojang planned to add a Herobrine mob for that update.
OH MY GOD YEAH LOL I remember that!!
Who’s to say they didn’t….
The herobrine image with the black eyes really made me unnecessarily mad
I love watching footage of people build stuff in minecraft that is almost impossible to determine what it is
Tbh I'm glad that ARGs are somewhat falling out of style as the main mode of telling spooky stories. It comes down to personal preference and if you like em' that's fine, but the style of "okay so you gotta solve this cipher on this Twitter page that will give you the passcode for the next video." Always seemed like such a convoluted method of telling a story.
WOAH! Pausing at the mention of ScareTheater! I thought that guy had quit years ago and stopped watching. Crazy that this is how I find out he's active again. Kudos to you, Peter.
as someone who's admittedly dedicated a huge amount of time to fnf, i can explain why people like horror themed fnf mods, at least partially.
See, its less trying to be scary (mostly), and moreso trying to represent the character or characters in question. Think of it like smash bros in a way. People are trying to make mods that represent horror entities they enjoy, whether it be old or new. That's the appeal. I personally got hooked onto modern internet horror via fnf and if it can do that to me, a fully grown adult, then its probs doing the same for the kids who'll write the next generation of horror stories and creepypastas methinks.
Same, it's not so much being scary, as much as it's just trying a different aesthetic and genre and just have fun
Which ig is the whole point of fnf mods (or at least it should)
Grab a concept you love and run buckwild and have fun with what you can male
What songs you can compose
Fun designs
Maybe a story if you feel daring enough
Sure it might not be "scary" but thats not the point!
Back in my day before version 1.13 everything was always feel off, survival feels being hunted by something that shouldn't be exist and creative just feel like in survival. And you feel always being watch and you don't even know what is watching you
I would genuinely love to see Casey’s Cave make a resurgence. It’s an OG Minecraft creepypasta that even predates Entity 303 and it’s lost media history is fascinating
Me to
I like the idea that ECW gaming AKA scare theater was so disturbed by the girl in the cave that he deleted everything out of fear
I had completely forgotten about Casey's Cave until recently. I tried looking it up, but couldn't find anything and genuinely thought i'd made it up until I found the Reddit threat about it. It's cool to find I'm part of a group that remembers about this lost media.
actually, arg are made for viewers to also play (aka with minecraft it would be a world or a website that's released to the public), what you described is unfiction
Yup! Even if there isn’t a website or server, it still requires audience interaction in order to proceed.
Edit: meaning, for example, it requires audience members to figure out puzzles/major story points or interact directly with the ‘arg characters.’
Yeah, I'm not really a fan of people lumping any web horror series nowadays as "an ARG". I think a lot of people use it because it's just a more well-known (and probably more marketable) term than unfiction, but I think it needs to be clear whether a series has actual audience participation or not.
When you said “ScareTheater,” I knew exactly what you meant, and I got genuinely excited at the idea that SOMEONE remembered Casey’s Cave. It’s sat in the back of my mind for so long, but there’s been no mentions of it anywhere for years. I’m glad you and DjDeadpig have worked to find it, thank you!!
The Gygas theme from earthbound, yes, the scariest track on the human planet.
I like how this entire video is essentially one big advertisement for ScareTheater.
26:20 EH WHY NOT?
(most MC "horror" mods aren't scary really so here's just mods I recommend in general)
Dungeons and Taverns
From the Fog (course)
Tectonic
WF's cave overhaul
Distant Horizons
Macaw's mods
Modern Industrialization
Aileron
Librarian's balance
Eureka
Immersive Weathering
Majrusz's progressive difficulty
Another thing similar to error 422 is: Minecraft PS1 edition (yes they have already done analog horror)
(but seriously this is a good video)
Autumn and Winter have always been my favorite seasons.
Andrew gaming is a good example. Of a arg.
Because it feels ominous and scary I wanna see you do a analysis for the series after you watch it fully.
I think that kids getting into creepypasta through FNF is really cool actually, it's not for me but the more people who get to enjoy a subset of the internet I've loved since I was a kid myself the better
also complaining about how it makes no sense that a monster picks up a microphone and sings is just missing the point, it's like saying it makes no sense that the characters in puyo puyo match little blobs together instead of actually fighting lol
There's a guy named Raygloom who does a lot of creepypasta videos, usually playing with other people. Some episodes are actually pretty decent, others, maybe not so much. It can get a little too generic, and he likes to use the same audio tracks and horror stingers, that said, I do enjoy them from time to time, especially when a decent one pops up.
RAYGLOOM MENTIONED!!!!!!! THE FUCK IS PROPER GRAMMAR!!!!!!!!
@@_rainwater Sorry, I got no context for this comment.
like caseys cave I've been looking for the OLD SIMS 2/3 Slenderman ARG project for years
Even though I've been playing Minecraft since 2012 (only occasionally every few months in recent times), I still get creeped out. The occasional delayed footsteps that come from behind you, the weird terrain generation or the random two block structures in the distance that are distorted enough to the point where it looks like another player. You never truly feel alone while playing Minecraft.
I've had my fair share of odd encounters while playing Minecraft. These include three block tall sand pyramids, trees will very little foliage and fires raging no where near any lava.
I remember watching the original Casey's Cave video when I was barely even 10. Pretty sure it scared the shit out of me back then . So many old memories rediscovered...
The “Entity 422” thing reminds me of the “Beta 1.8.X” mod for beta 1.8.1
Nice video. Why does your gameplay look like you were forced at gunpoint to record Minecraft? Lmao.
Right?!?
I remember watching ECWGaming as I was a fan of ScareTheater back in the day. Unfortunately, I never watched the Casey’s Cave series but I used to watch his Shock site reactions.
16:57 as Russian person myself, I can confirm that absolutely true
Yup. Yup, absolutely, can confirm as well
Hey, speaking of BCW, I actually had my very first job interview at the BCW warehouse near my house, but I didn't get the job cause they were full. But they are still keeping me in mind.
I was actually involved in the casey's cave ARG with Eric when I was 13. It's fucking insane hearing someone bringing it up with fond memories.
Also, seeing multiple people call him ECW Gaming like it's 2013 again lool
Oh my God.
Well I don’t want to be a prick or anything but can I ask you a few questions about your time working on the show?
-Do you remember the plot of maybe the first few episodes more clearly than the filmora descriptions?
-Do you have any screenshots that you may have taken at the time of the shows release?
-(beating a dead horse with this one) do you have any footage by any chance from back in the day?
@@DjDeadpig I remember the plot involving Casey being the victim of some heinous crime, resulting in her death, and her haunting the cave as a result. I don't remember if the incident happened in the cave though. I know there were police characters and such, but I don't remember they were in Minecraft or not.
I do remember a plan for her spirit to gradually extend beyond the cave, like an SCP or eldritch abomination, messing with the game and real life as well. Iirc elements of this were introduced at the end of season one (like, episode 11 or 12 I remember a twist/reveal).
I have no screenshots, and never took any, because I expected the series (and youtube as a whole) to have wayyyyy more longevity. I stopped watching for like 4 - 6 months and next thing I knew it was cancelled lol.
As for footage, I don't have that either, but I think Eric might. Your only hopes are to A.) Deep dive into search engines and pray, or B.) Get ScareTheater's older community members to spam Eric about it.
ECWGaming remained for a long time after ScareTheater got a shoutout from WatchMojo and blew up. ECWGaming was a freshman high school thing, and had a decent amount of subs (potentially up to 15k, which was very big in 2013). It was part of a community of channels like FOEGaming, a bunch of high schoolers shouting each other out and forming a makeshift community similar to early youtube with machinimas/AMVs. I imagine Eric has very fond memories of it like I had, and had the videos privated for a very long time until the deletion of the channel. There is a high likelihood the videos are archived, given that it was his channel's magnum opus, and a large inspiration behind ScareTheater. Casey's Cave was really blowing up before it buckled under its own ambitions (the story of the internet). In fact, I would argue that Casey's Cave was the death of ECWGaming, as the channel gradually stopped making gaming content during and after the series.
EDIT: I just found out Eric has confirmed he has no archives of the series; bummer.
Finally, I want to make it very clear that I didn't feature in any episodes, nor was I involved in any major decisions. I am a former friend of Eric's (nothing happened, I just moved on). We even collabed at one point. I was a candidate for voice acting in the series, and ultimately wasn't selected because I was too busy in real life. I believe I auditioned for a cop or paramedic role.
Hopefully this lore dump helps you on your search. The memories Notch gave me as a kid during the 1.0 era are very important to me, and remind me of what life could become again. The truth is I likely won't experience any of it again until I'm in heaven. Have a good one, and remember that no matter how fast or confusing something may be, cherish it, because once it's gone... it's gone.
@@modtrashfire5518hey man, sorry for being late. Thanks for your input. I have plans to look into this further and make a comprehensive doc or video in the future about the series, laying out everything I could find, so that someone could maybe take the mantle of being head of the search, as so far, I believe I am stumped.
Once again, thank you :)
Herobrine is a fake story, but it made alpha minecraft feel infinitely scarier.
'one time i convinced someone that herobbrine was real and they had a mental breakdown'
YOU. are you that person from my karkate class??? you jerk, i slept with the closet light on for three years!
i know this is probably just a joke but imagine if its actually you LMAO
the latest myth that everyone believed in was around 2021 with the piracy is no party meme but it was quickly debunked by the creator himself
I forgot pibby existed 💀
I love Digital Horror, I grew up with it and I feel like it will always be timeless. Digital Horror is so open-ended that creativity can be explored infinitely as long as the internet exists.
Analog horror is supposed to invoke the feeling of horror that comes from looking back to your childhood and finding something wrong
But yeah, using analog tech for minecraft would be weird, but digital horror would work just fine, a horror type that's supposed to do the same thing as analog horror, looking back and finding something off putting you don't remember, but instead for the 2000s and on =]
Just to clarify, there’s already a named horror genre for things such as Minecraft and GMOD that separates it from Analog Horror; it’s called Digital Horror
stop trying to get things going. Its not called that at all
@@zutharthirteen wow, what a way to be a wet blanket. It’s a recent term for this genre of horror media and it’s way more fitting
"I Have a negative view of analog horror"
Bro is uncooking lmao
No no, he's got a point
analog horror is shit
analog horror used to be good but now the analog horror has been used to death, it just ain't scary anymore
Ikr lmaoooo
Him and the people in the replies here think analog horror is just nothing but lame vhs filter over footage with jumpscares
@@korrinkorr6606 that's not what i meant. i love a good analog horror piece and one good example is the game "Home Safety Hotline". i just don't like how analog horror is overused and how people doing analog horror rarely get it right. there are just too many bad analog horror media that i have begun to dislike analog horror and also excuse me for my bad english.
Bro the Casey’s cave creepypasta scared me even more than Herobrine. I love this.
30:00 actually the Xbox 360 had a music projector built into its media player although that was more a screen savour that would change based on the media playing but it is possible so not a stretch but it definitely would take alot of work in theory hope this helps
bro what's with the FNF slander 😭
@ThirdyMeowy this feels really lacking in self-awareness from someone in the Mine Craft community lmao
@@gallade1052 i literally just said im not in the mcyt community/fandom. i just play minecraft
@@gallade1052 like i said i didnt mean it in a rude way. ill delete my comment
It was an unfathomably based take
@@lucky7gaming15 ?
Two vids in one day? What is it our birthday?
"Nostalgic Memories" a.k.a "Twisted Memories" too scary nostalgic creepypasta.
6:25 I remember as a kid reading creepy pastas (I’ve never liked reading anything else) and being inspired to write my own stories. While my English and story writing were awful I had a lot of fun. And being in the second grade writing stories in a foreign language I had taught myself I would get stopped by my teachers when they ran into me and get a lot of praise, which I was really happy about
I think Don’t Look At The Moon might be my favorite arg honestly. It’s so good
26:18 I know one: *"Minecraft PSX Edition"* *(an ARG as well.)*
This is so freaking cool. Thanks, man!
what the actual fuck is this background gameplay😭
I remember Casey's Cave as well as the ridiculous ECW Gaming vids.
I haven’t finished the video yet but recently I actually I just out of the blue remembered caseys cave and tried refinding it. Crazy how all of us are kind of interlinked mentally in a way.
as soon as you said fnf horror mods that caught me so off guard, that was SO random but there is no way you werent referencing Starecrown there lmao
looks like bros first day playing minecraft lmao
Honestly was expecting another just basic emotionless video on this but honestly you have a very good sense of humour and I enjoyed the whole video! You remind me a lot of Retro Gaming Now who is another rare example of someone having a special personality of this genre!
i love nostalgia for that very reason. it's unsettling if done right
EDIT: my 2024 is fine so far. as you mentioned about winter - it's not having me kindly this year so i am scraping by at times. as for a good minecraft mod - or rather modpack in this case that would be "better beta". i doubt i will need to tell you anything about it though! hope you're fine in this new year
Something about this video started making me fear monsters more than people again for a moment. It's a weirdly nostalgic feeling
36:30
Mario's Madness V2 (especially this one with all the impressive technical stuff + bangers), VS Sonic.EXE (which left a trace forever in the EXE community with bangers like You Can't Run, Cycles & Endless), Hypno's Lullaby (pretty good Pokemon mod)...: Are we a joke to you ?
yeppers( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Listening to this late at night while playing Minecraft, the vibes are unreal
i really like that you're subtly plugging an ARG (of your own I'm guessing?) that is really cool.
Used the Playstation startup sound at the beginning of the video and didn't even mention Minecraft: PS1 Edition. Tsk tsk
I forgot about Casey’s Cave, I watched that when I was like 10
that's a small amount of attention for a really well done video like this
This is a brilliant video dude
That scroll at the beginning was tough💀
Oh hey, Hey Peter! Your videos are being recommended!
Oh crap I watched your urbanspook vid awhile back... I'll sub this time 😅
Loved this video! And as someone who knows very little about video game culture in Russia, I’d be genuinely intrigued to learn more
Now I really want to know about "violent, deranged and free videogames" that russian people love. Because I am from Russia, and I play in every modern videogames like the most people from Russia I know do. So I am really curious now to know what you were talking about
Мужик, мы создали Вангеров, МОР Утопию, Полную Трубу, Штопор Жжот и Ядерный Титбит.

I REMEMBER WATCHING FEW I remember one of the episodes and the house vividly!!! It's so good to see people remember him!!
ECW ** Autocorrect ):
Herobrine is a name i havent heard in so long that it gives me nostalgia, the creepypastas of minecraft are some that are unique, and the way they evolve is so amazing to me, how it all derived from one image. Herobrine, or the white eyes ig. All i can say is that the creepypastas have come a far wqy and have evolved into something really great.
The way it evolved as well is really interesting, for example, herobrine was a hoax about a ghost, a supernatural being with unknown intentions with that spiraling into phycological horror of e.g dont look at the moon which shows mental deterioration.
Thats all i can really say, although if i were to recommend an ARG it would have to be Andregaming667.
It perfectly captures the old school minecraft creepypasta presence whilst mixing in moral standpoints and emotive works.
Love the video!
The haunted - now that’s a show, technically a sequel Minecraft show that I loved. Really good too
Man how young are you? Minecraft came out when I was in college lol
I think you're just getting older.
i hate the gameplay in this video
As a Floridian, winter is the only season that's bearable, and summer can go die in a hole
Just the moon? go mess with the sun then.
26:22 the gigeresque mod is really neat
Oh my look at this sandstone pill *gulp*. Lol thanks for this vid I'm really diving into Minecraft . And of course it's creepypastas . I think I encountered a horror entity in one of my world but the encounter was like.
Horror entity: " Imma mess with this gu-wtf"
Me: " weeeeeee" runs head first off a cliff because I saw a puddle at the bottom
Don’t forget to leave a like if you enjoy the video!
Someone needs a white eye dweller mod.
I know this sounds very weird and far fetched but I’m pretty sure the open Minecraft clip is on a seed me and my brother used to play on.
I am like 30 seconds in and I already need to do a double take if I heard that right
That joke came so out of left field that I think I had to go to the right one again to even comprehend that it happened
Prominence and Cottage Witch are pretty good modpacks to play.
