You never saw it, but the old man rips your face off when he catches you, and that specific death helps explain some dialogue. It's why the grandma calls him the "man with the faces", and also why one of the spirits under the house was surprised to see people with faces down there. He does it to Melody right away because she's not supposed to be awake, but he probably does it to everyone if they're asleep long enough to be fully "claimed".
I think the Facestealer is the one who claims the souls of those who were trapped inside the accursed house. The idea of that most of the family members were put to sleep and then they experience a harrowing nightmare of an endless time loop allows the Facestealer to steal their souls in the physical world. He seems to be independent from the lingering atmosphere of the House though.
Fun Fact: There's also a way to save the cat. Basically, you have to use the glass to pick up the wine that drops on the floor once the mom's bottle breaks. Then you have to give it to the rat. The rat will then write a new entry in your diary that gives you a new song to play. Playing that song will cause a small rat to appear. You have to guide that rat to the piano room. Then the cat will jump out from behind the painting and eat the rat, before jumping on the piano and crushing the monster inside. Then, after you kill the Grim Reaper dude and jump down into the spirit realm thing, the cat will follow you. During the TV cutscene, you'll then see the cat sleeping on the floor.
I likehow at the end all the family memebers are laid to rest and get to apologize, gaining closure, and I love how the neighbor doesn't lose her long neck and also takes in the girls
It's interesting how they make unique gameplay for Tabby's sister. While she had father issues case, Melody actually has some more secrets like her boyfriend who died, grandma who reached her about music and different but similar to her older sister mission Edit: I left this comment I didn't expect so many corrections because of name
Is it just me, or does the scissor woman who wants to play hide and seek with Melody look very similar to the doll that taunted Tabby throughout her journey before Tabby destroyed her?
There's actually dialogue in the game where the scissor girl asks Melody if she liked the doll she made for her and asks Melody if she recognizes her, so the doll from the base game really seems to be connected to the scissor girl
No honestly the neighbour head is fine since ive seen the teachers head in little nightmares 2 extend way longer and more high quality so its more scary
@@shaineanagaran7510 *SPOILERS* I have too, but I've always known the neighbor in the first House game to be pretty nice and helpful. Long neck, sure, it weirded me out when I first saw it, but she always established herself as a descent person who wanted to help. I didn't except her to chomp off Tabby's head like a f*cked-up snake
I knew that you might play the dlc and explain the entire story! I couldn’t get the purpose of the endings being explained, but I’m glad that I do now! Thanks for this! You’re the best!
Damn, one of my favorite pixel horror games is still relevant! I thought HOuSE (I spelled like that because of the title screen) has fallen out of relevancy because everybody finished it
There is 1 more ending, well more like bonus to the ending. First you need to get the bucket than brake mom` s wine and pick it up from the floor ,after that give it to the big rat he will give you a new song. By this point it will be late to do the ending so just restart the day and go find the little rat that goes around the living room and gives sandwiches and play the song to him ,than go to the piano room and the cat will get the rat and kill the piano when its starts playing the song. Than after that just get the ending again it will be different, you will know that you got it when you jump down and cat follows you. I hope it helps ;)
There are many strange things in this update, there seems to be a lot more trees and the house seems to be much more weathered. Also, the corpse of the old man that tabby killed and the main game now has trees growing out of it. I find it hopeful that if in this DLC we can save tabby’s sister and their cat, maybe in the future we will be able to save more
The first time he cut the mother with the scissors ✂️ he didn’t exactly slip more like the mother turn and kick melody for cutting her legs with the scissors ✂️ causing melody to fall forward and die
My theory is that the shadow girl holding the melody doll is the girl that possesed the doll in a pink dress, the thin shadow man poking tabby is the thin shadow enemies in the first game
Never thought I'd see this game again but I'm very glad I did. I love that we got a chance to save Melody and I really hope we can do that for the rest of the family
It's not quite a horror game, but I suggest you play Everhood! It's scaryness is sorta existential, about how living forever is horrifying, it's got tons of cool characters, jamming music and unique rythm game/RPG gameplay! It reminds me of Deltarune/Undertale, but of course it makes its own identity.
Mike, I absolutely LOVE your videos! I adore indie horror games but I’m too scared to play them myself lol so watching your videos and listening to your pleasant voice is pretty relaxing and awesome. Thanks so much! Keep it up! Oh and I love this game!
My little theory: maybe this is a game where all of the family members need to escape this cursed house, like Tabby did, so now is Melody, then the next maybe is the Dad maybe the Dad story maybe we can see how the Dad killed Toby and Toby died then the Mum, maybe Mum story is she founded out about Toby has died, is kinda like Mr. Hopps playhouse
Interesting thing I noticed you can see someone in the reflection of the water at 36:17 next to melody, I think it’s Toby but I’m not entirely sure. I’m not the only one who sees that right? Edit: upon closer inspection it appears that the whole family is in the reflection next to melody Mom and Dad on the left and Toby on the right, how sweet :) AND THE CAT THE CAT IS THERE!
So٫ the basic gist is: The grandmother and grandfather are both dead. Grandma is the spirit with the book٫ Grandpa is the old man controlling everything. This was passed on to the father٫ James٫ who married the mother٫ and had Melody and Tabby. Tabby is the alive one here٫ and does the true ending. Then٫ in her nightmare dreams of this place٫ the neighbor and her give Melody a chance to escape. Melody and the mother are both٫ by the sounds of if٫ angry at Tabby for leaving them behind. Now٫ without the grandpa٫ the spirits in the house go haywire٫ getting new forms٫ and Toby's spirit is corrupted. Eventually٫ Melody is going to escape.. Somehow.
Why is no one talking about how creepy Toby is? He is MUCH taller than Melody which leads me to believe he is too old for her and since he died hes been waiting and watching in the bathroom????? ( Melody used the bathroom in the first part of the game) No wonder the dad lost it and killed him... with or with out the house's influence.... Melody is a little girl... younger than Tabby. Also kinda sucks grandmom liked melody way more than tabby :(
I like house, it’s a very basic thing, trial and error over and over again until you get what you want, while it being horrific and gory. I hope more games are like this.
Hey, Mike. I know an older horror like game you should play, that I have suggested before: Epic Mickey is where Mickey Mouse gets pulled into a wasteland that is corrupted by the Shadow Blot, a creature made out of paint and thinner from a magical brush owned by master Wizard Yen Sid. You use the brush to fight enemies and take care of certain walls and pumps. You have to fight your way through the dangers to stop the Shadow Blot,literally retrieve your heart, and save Wasteland. There are some control issues, but it's still fun to play. I even have a theory that I might put on my channel, one day.
My idea for a concept idea in poppy playtime is 100% my oc Cherry the chicken, she has a cheerful smile on at all times along with a brown fur colour, blue eyes and red maine.
I am still not going to be taking any of this gameplay at face value but will instead contemplate about the actual, metaphorical meaning behind the events. I like the idea of this being a very grim metaphor for familial trauma. I think that this is the perfect way to satisfy both fans of the paranormal and realists - we have ghosts and strange visuals for supernatural fans, while the story grounded in reality is for those who appreciate realism.
Fun fact:if you talk to the toilet monster aka akaname if you talk to her she said ruthless and if go to the end and keep entering the game then you will see the boss watching you but dying you will see the doll
So meldoys boyfriend toby and her father and mum. They try to help her escape this hell loop and when they do we can say goodbye to their souls before they leave and... So do they get peace!?
(EVENTS) 14:00 you had to deal with three of them 20:46 he realize what to do 24:00 he had to deal with three of them again 27:49 he dies at the end 30:18 he wins

I didn't think we were going to get anymore house, but I'm not disappointed!
same
Who knows if the grandpa could possess the house who to say outher people can’t possess outher house’s
Amd the Grandma even tells a little lore, I think. (There was a Grandfather, right?)
Nooooooo wee need it please
Ye I thought it was done for
Fun Fact: There's also a way to save the cat. Basically, you have to use the glass to pick up the wine that drops on the floor once the mom's bottle breaks. Then you have to give it to the rat.

Then, after you kill the Grim Reaper dude and jump down into the spirit realm thing, the cat will follow you. During the TV cutscene, you'll then see the cat sleeping on the floor.
I guess the house didn't want to take a cat soul just for the sheer fact that its a cat.
And if you end up saving the cat, the end screen where you are watching the TV will have the cat sleeping on the floor
@@rabies6418 yep if i play the dlc i will be saving noddles yes I call them noddles
@@mapleflame9027 I love that name it's adorable

huh? the NIGHBOR takes in the girls?! explain?
@@RubyLetsPlays at the end you see the neighbors neck, and the house is technically destroyed so they most likely went to her house

The fact that all the comment are correcting tabby’s name

How sweet

Thats true

I'm pretty sure one the lines for scissor girl is there's no end or something you know like the doll said
@@jennifertran7555 After all, in the main game, it literally was her doll lol.
I actually was very curious about that and wondered why was that there [the doll]
I love how the neighbour adopted the girls, what a good neighbour.
like a good neighbor, statefarm is there ;)
sorry, I had to! you just reminded me of that :)
Was anyone else absolutely horrified with the neighbor at the beginning of the game? I actually gasped at that!
No honestly the neighbour head is fine since ive seen the teachers head in little nightmares 2 extend way longer and more high quality so its more scary

These kinds of games are really incredible. How does this simple animation and graphic make people feel scared?
@Agent E is that a fnaf refference
You almost got the true true ending
You need the cat to be alive at the end to join you after you jump down into the underground

I haven't seen anyone mention this, but I just realized the way you get the true ending is breaking the GRANDFATHER clock.
I didn't expect a dlc to come out but it's very welcome

Gonna love this channel

Yes crunchy is correct and sometimes he just uploads theories or explaining games he has played
His reactions are just as good as the other guy whose name I can’t remember well…
I wonder what else he’ll do next…
Yay! More House! This is one of my favorite horror games!😊
I agree, this game is really cool.
I find it not scary
@@srharpoonidk8625 Oh yeah, it's not scary but I still consider it a horror game😂. But it is a rather cool game, isn't it?
Right
TabDoll: It never ends...
MeoDoll: It's pointless...we're doomed to fail...
Great series! Happy to see more of it and hope to see more of it in the future still.
In each DLC you have to save each character to make them say dream once done youll get the family ending

That is a lot of scenes D:
Thanks for your time to make this comment
There was also the reflection of the mother, father and boyfriend beside Melody in the water.
The song you sing on the flut to summon the grandma sounds like the main song from Disney pixars UP
My theory is that the shadow girl holding the melody doll is the girl that possesed the doll in a pink dress, the thin shadow man poking tabby is the thin shadow enemies in the first game
Cool Theory
The bouncy animation style and the item swapping sound really remind me of a game called forager!
Never thought I'd see this game again but I'm very glad I did. I love that we got a chance to save Melody and I really hope we can do that for the rest of the family

i just finished watching this playthrough XD what a coincidence!
Out of this Dlc and the actual game, or any other horror game for that matter, should really consider on becoming movies. They're just THAT good!
Mike, I absolutely LOVE your videos! I adore indie horror games but I’m too scared to play them myself lol so watching your videos and listening to your pleasant voice is pretty relaxing and awesome. Thanks so much! Keep it up! Oh and I love this game!

Please do a story explained video! 🙏
YA
Yessssss!!
Yee
Four people can watch the tv: Tabby. Marty (the snail), Melody, and the cat
and the neighbour
@@Spazticious9591 yeah but the neighbor doesent watch all the time (also there is an easter egg with akaname (toilet demon))
in the reflection in the water you can see toby & the dad
Really interesting to see this, thanks for playing through it! Can't wait for the endings and story explanation video!
I love this game it's really amazing 💕
I was waiting for this ! love your videos

For some reason I’m surprised that melody is younger than tabby, I always thought she was older

( Melody used the bathroom in the first part of the game) No wonder the dad lost it and killed him... with or with out the house's influence.... Melody is a little girl... younger than Tabby.
Also kinda sucks grandmom liked melody way more than tabby :(
Yeah this is something that's been bothering me since the first game
Yoi why does Toby even like melody she smaller then him.
who said toby is older? They're both probably teens, boys are naturally taller than girls usually. You're making stuff up
And spoilers melody is a teenager
in other videos, house seems like a simple horror game, but in reality it is very complex
Keep up with the great content!!!
Bagels r pretty cool ngl, you can use them to make some cool things with them. Like pizza bagels, sandwiches, etc.
Superhorrorbro I have covid and your videos are carrying me through this 😭 Thank you!!
Amazing video! Thank you for the hard work!
Fun fact: if you get the melody doll and go to the long neck neighbor you can play as melody.
🤦♂️
The first time tabby played the flute I thought she played the sad song from up
I like house, it’s a very basic thing, trial and error over and over again until you get what you want, while it being horrific and gory.
I hope more games are like this.
More house videos! I love this game :)
There's a way to save the cat
Well i think it has a reference to Up (or so i think)
If you skip to 8:35, the tune sounds like the song from Up, "Married Life"
Woah didn't know were gonna be going to this again, i liked this game ngl
Hey, Mike. I know an older horror like game you should play, that I have suggested before:
Epic Mickey is where Mickey Mouse gets pulled into a wasteland that is corrupted by the Shadow Blot, a creature made out of paint and thinner from a magical brush owned by master Wizard Yen Sid. You use the brush to fight enemies and take care of certain walls and pumps. You have to fight your way through the dangers to stop the Shadow Blot,literally retrieve your heart, and save Wasteland. There are some control issues, but it's still fun to play. I even have a theory that I might put on my channel, one day.
Red the journal as tabby
Theory: at the end the shadow people they might be the past owners of a house who have just faded away from being so corrupt
This is so cool!!! I am so excited for more details on this!
I was just watching videos of this game!! Perfect timming!!
Why do I keep finding horror games I wanna watch, then I instantly go to a theory channel
Maybe the scissor girl was another sibling of Taby and Melody, but got sliced up in a scissor accident...
Yuppie Psycho can be just as horrific and adorable as this game, so I hope that more horror-themed creators give it a chance!
it's wierd bc the toilet monster said she did a good job even though it killed melody in the og one
Superhorrorbro when you get the ending and you can watch tv and change channels look out the window and you can see a shadow human watching you
My idea for a concept idea in poppy playtime is 100% my oc Cherry the chicken, she has a cheerful smile on at all times along with a brown fur colour, blue eyes and red maine.
1:43 i love that OOO.
thank you melodii's family hope you rest in peace
Guess the doll was more human then we thought. There's always another story.
I am still not going to be taking any of this gameplay at face value but will instead contemplate about the actual, metaphorical meaning behind the events. I like the idea of this being a very grim metaphor for familial trauma. I think that this is the perfect way to satisfy both fans of the paranormal and realists - we have ghosts and strange visuals for supernatural fans, while the story grounded in reality is for those who appreciate realism.
Try getting this ending but get out of the door instead of jumping in the hole
Other changing stuff you didn't notice when you started the 1st round
-doll
-remix in "walking" music
"I slipped over somehow" Guess he somehow didn't see the mom kicking melody
I like to think that at the end you're both staying with the neighbor, since she's there
Ah. So THIS is why UA-cam recommended your “story explained” video again
Yai it's the first time I came early to a video.
oh my god i loved this game so much when it came out and now your telling me theres a sequel!!!??
thanks for the gameplay
Yessss i love this game (and your videos)
already watched a playthrough of this DLC but I'm watching it again
When mike is speaking at the intro, its make me scared
There's a mimic in our midst
They could be in this very room they could be you they could be me they could even be (gets shot)
Tabby: I've saved my family and went to different timelines and murdered a monster while losing an arm
Melody: So anyways I started cutting
I LOVE UR CONTENT SO MUCH
SHB: I played it 6 months ago
Me: Shit i wasted 6 month at home again lol
Looks like these guys are the new Aftons. They ALWAYS come back 🐻🦊🐰🐤
I'm looking forward to the DLC EXPLAINED. 😌
song on the flute sounded like “Up”
Fun fact:if you talk to the toilet monster aka akaname if you talk to her she said ruthless and if go to the end and keep entering the game then you will see the boss watching you but dying you will see the doll
So meldoys boyfriend toby and her father and mum. They try to help her escape this hell loop and when they do we can say goodbye to their souls before they leave and... So do they get peace!?
Awesome and cool!
I find it interesting that melody has it so much easier than tabby
(EVENTS)

I came as soon I could come which is now.
