5:02 Lexi, I have PTSD. In the 80s, I was labeled as a "problem child" in school and yes, I can confirm that the small rooms for "insane" people are real. I've spent countless hours in them. I actually felt better inside, it was quiet, dim, and covered in a nice fluffy carpet and it made me feel safe.
I was put in a mental hospital about three years back, the people there are really kind and nice. Thankfully, though, I wasn’t put in any of those carpeted rooms, but I can kinda relate to you. They kept us in these tiny rooms to sleep in, and we couldn’t have any shoelaces, for fear of strangling ourselves. I know it’s not that simple, but I hope you can get over your PTSD:)
Yeah, they call them "quiet rooms", and there's been some controversy over their continued use in some schools because kids have been locked up in them for hours at a time with no bathroom breaks.

5:11 one of my schools converted a closet to this kind of room (granted it had a window so it had natural lighting) and it was used for the special education department. Some kids with developmental issues would sometimes get really upset and they would be placed inside a safe, padded room where they wouldn't be able to hurt themselves or others. You'd be surprised at how much damage and self harm some of those kids can do and how surprisingly strong some of them can be. Sometimes it's best to let them have their tantrum and to let them express their frustration where they otherwise may not be able to do. Then once they've calmed down they would check to make sure the kid was OK, gave them drinks, snacks, etc. and provide a quiet place to let them rest and collect themselves again. Of course this would also be reinforced with behavioral counseling where they can teach the kids better, more constructive rather than destructive expression of emotions. Basically TLDR: there can sometimes be a legitimate need for these kinds of rooms but I can definitely understand how this can be jarring to see in a school

The Uncanny Valley thing is actually a lot less horrifying than you think. The common theory is that figures in the uncanny valley probably subconsciously look like corpses or something, and whene said figure also moves around (like animatronics) it’s extremely offputting. Personally, I’ve found I’m immune to the uncanny valley; I do not recall a time I have ever been creeped out by animatronics or whatnot in the way others describe.
People also forget that evolution doesn't happen because of a need, it just happens and the animal can sometime use it to it's avantage but it's not always useful
Conversely, I believe the audio uncanny valley, particuly when it come to accents. When someone does my accent (Australian) badly, or *just* that bit wrong can be disturbing and annoying. Or strong New Zealand accents. The Kiwi accent is similar enough that the differences end up uncanny.
There is also the idea that this could have helped early humans avoid sick people or say recognize when someone is not from your pack/tribe and therefore a threat to your people or land.

That thing at the beginning is a hedge apple. Maclura pomifera, commonly known as the Osage orange, horse apple, hedge, or hedge apple tree is a small deciduous tree or large shrub, typically growing about 8 to 15 metres (30-50 ft) tall. The distinctive fruit, a multiple fruit, is roughly spherical, bumpy, 8 to 15 centimetres (3-6 in) in diameter, and turns bright yellow-green in the fall. The fruits secrete a sticky white latex when cut or damaged. Despite the name "Osage orange", it is not related to the orange. It is a member of the mulberry family, Moraceae. Due to its latex secretions and woody pulp, the fruit is typically not eaten by humans and rarely by foraging animals, giving it distinction as an anachronistic "ghost of evolution".
Remember to buy glow in the dark spraypaint for those chicken wire ghosts. I've been wanting to do this for Halloween for many years. I can't find glow in the dark spraypaint in my country though, and I'm not sure I can shape the ghosts correctly. But I want to. Damn it, I want to so bad.
I want to get one of those prosthetic face masks with ol' Zuck's face on it. ...and get the same for all my friends. Then walk down the street. /evil grin/
So terrifying that his face ended up on the "when the impostor is sus" meme... Or someone who can make a great impression of that face. Photoshopped or not.
That bird isn't a crow or a raven, you can tell by the eyes. Crows and ravens have all-black eyes, this bird has blue irises, which means its a grackle. They're still common birds, just not corvids. They like to hang out near bird feeders and steal seeds from smaller birds, but they're generally friendly to humans!
fun fact: the “things to lock up insane people” (5:11) are actually just small padded rooms that are usually in special ed classrooms. they were meant as a solo space if the kids get upset and violent where they can spend some time alone to cool off and beat up some walls if needed. they’re put in place for the safety of both the students and the administration.
Sounds like a stereotypical padded “insane room” but with permission and consent from the child. If they actually get consent from the child I guess it’s okay?
I was once in a school with one of these, it wasn't padded, they put in anyone that misbehaved like it was a punishment, one kid punched his hand through the tiny window on the door because they refused to let him out while he was screaming and he had to go to the hospital, my mom took me out of that school after that but she never knew I actually was put in that room once, they didn't close the door on me, and I stayed quiet the whole time so they let me out pretty fast, I have autism and adhd, so it was pretty hurtful, I think it was way back in elementary school?
@@justseffstuff3308 i agree, my step mom is a special ed teacher and used to have one in her classroom and she rarely had to use it but she used it right
I remember I had a pool when I was younger. The lights in the pool always shocked you if you got too close. When you went near it you could FEEL the electricity of the light.
Lexi did not look nearly long enough at that artwork, they would have seen cthulu's arrival, the tentacles, bloodstains, smoking pentacle, deep sea horror beast, the hand in the drain etc, etc.
My mother made me terrified of the swimming pool intake. When she told me about a little girl who had all her internal organs sucked out of her butt when she went too close to one. I'm like wtf why would they let kids near something so dangerous?!.... then I grew up a bit and realised my mother was just a liar!
It is very much real, her name is Abbey and she died later in the hospital since her injuries were fatal, also final destination has a death scene directly based off of that
If I'm not mistaken, Shoebill's are the ones where their babies occasionally fight while the mother watches and *she lets the loser starve.* Like, she straight up lets the one that loses die and only brings food for the winner thereafter. Great parenting!
6:45 I think Lexi misunderstood the OP's post and picture. I think they meant that before they bought the property the relatives spread the ashes of the previous owner. Now that OP has bought the property their camera took a picture of a strange humanoid figure out late at night, implying that it might be the ghost of the previous tenant. I think Lexi mistook the image to be relatives of the previous owner spreading the ashes late at night which is not the case.
I believe the uncanny valley one can be explained by us developing a fear of… corpses, because they are basically inanimate people, and the concept of death itself can just be terrifying enough to find a decomposing body horrifying, even if it’s the corpse of a loved one. It’s uncanny to see them rot away. Plus they can be unhealthy to be around because of biohazards
The bird is actually even though it looks like it came straight up from hell and is known to decapitate crocodiles they will actually let people come up to the nests as long as you bow to them.

5:02 there is a good reason for these, I’ve been in them a few times •_• When ASD kids go a little bit crazy, they can (and will) tear up everything around them, and potentially hurt teachers/aids, so they tend to put them in these till they calm down. I am very ashamed to say I’ve been in these a time or two, 5th grade was rough on me. So yeah, they are common, at least in every school I was in they had them. Though usually they are in the ASD rooms away from everything
10:18 I heard this so many times and every time I think "oh, you mean like a human with a contagious and fatal disease? because that's something that would look like uncanny valley depending on how severe the disease." Nobody ever seems to think about that.
The Parisian street scene with the wolflike dog and terrified cat is full of tiny, disturbing details, including a ghostlike figure, a woman in black leading a scared, sickly looking child, a man with a crate of what look like soda bottles that are labelled as being toxic, and a small bicycle mirror in which you can see the eldritch horror that the cat is reacting to attacking the Eiffel Tower. It's a clever painting, and I would like to know who actually painted it. Also, the "room for crazy people" is called a "quiet room" and they are used (and often misused) in some schools on children whom the teachers deem problematic, though in my personal opiniion it's generally the teachers themselves who need to be locked away in a padded room!
The uncanny valley thing probaly stems from when there were several species of humans living alongside each other. Being able to recognize your fellow congeners is an advantage when there's a bunch of other very similar species around...
1:11 as someone whose owned an aloe plant since elementary school... yea that's definitely mutated XD I have a bunch that are nowhere near that size, I'm gonna assume the owner managed to make it overgrow
I think my favorite theory about where the uncanny valley comes from is that it more or less probably comes from a fear of rabies. Same with the concept of zombies/the undead
Shoebill storks are so awesome. They are actually tied for my favorite bird. They're cute and friendly. Seriously, you can just chill by their nest (with eggs, or without) and as long as you don't get too close or do anything that might hint towards "Im gonna eat yo babies" they just let you sit there and do whatever. And I just checked, they are CRITICALLY endangered, not just endangered. :'(
0:02 Oo those are locally known around my area as monkey brains. They’re actually called osage oranges, if I’m not mistaken. Their seeds are actually edible, but that’s the only edible part.
Speaking of the uncanny valley theory, the people living in the Mandela Catalogue Universe have exactly what I would imagine to be what we would have needed to be afraid of.
5:02 my old elementary school had those too. Teachers called them "safe rooms" (i.e you were put there when you were being a threat to yourself or others, so you'd become safe), so it was a bit of a partially-unspoken contest among us students whenever you got sent there, to see how fast you could figure out how to hurt yourself in it. by the time I graduated I held the record at 1 minute, 25 seconds by using an exposed nail to punch a hole through my earlobe.
5:02 something my elementary school did for kids that ‘heavily disrupted’ class (i.e have sever emotional/mental breakdowns or temper tantrums) was that they would lock them in the windowless sensory rooms that we had for the special ed kids without turning on the lights for about an hour or until they calmed down, and would then suspend the kids for about three days. Two off-duty teachers or security guards were to guard the room from the inside and physically prevent the kid from escaping. I was given this punishment after having an emotional breakdown in the fourth grade, and to this day I still have a severe fear of the dark and any kind of confrontation by my current school or any of my school’s offerings of ‘help’ scare the crap out of me
The uncanny valley has some truth to it. Back in the day there were other types of humans that are extinct now. Like neanderthals for example. There were a ton more non human, humans. We were likely hunted by a few of them.
@@DrakoWulf Studies show we only survived because there was more of us, so we hunted more food leaving other non humans to starve, or mate with us. Either way we still won in the end.

I know what that first thing is! It's a 'Monkey Brain' AKA Osage Orange. They grew around my neighborhood as a kid. A couple kids used them for an assignment where we had to bring in leaves, seeds, etc. From plants around us.
7:40 a new camera was made that is the size of a grain of sand, and doesent need wires. it was made to be small enough to put in your bloodstream or on bugs to see what is happening.
The camera in a screw makes me feel even more suspicious of this guy whose house I visited to see if the room he was renting out was a good fit. He seemed nice for the most part (although he talked on and on and on about his whole life story and didn't seem to have much self awareness), but he told me about how his brother fooled around with him when he was a little boy and that's what he thinks made him bi. Like why did you tell me that??? Also he was kind of insistent on keeping this dresser in the room, even though I had my own furniture and he was willing to remove everything else. Just kinda gave me the creeps a little.
Fun fact; the shoebill stork, despite being upwards of 6 feet tall, actually tends to be friendly towards humans. And ravens are pretty easy to identify once you know how; they're the big glossy blue/black ones, that look like a hawk took a swim in an oil spill. Like, around 2 feet tall, whereas crows are a similar size to pigeons. Judging by the size of the boot, that's probably a crow.
Mark is scary.. think about it, there's a meta sign behind him while he has this eerie smile.. The meta is for metaverse which is where you can do everything and I mean EVERYTHING virtual. His plan is to take over humanity with this invention AND IT'S WORKING..No wonder he's smiling so hard, it's because us idiots are falling for this. Think about HOW MUCH HE CAN DO NOW, he's SO RICH and is well known for apps he has made. NOW the metaverse, it's all working.. ITS ALMOST TOO LATE AND WE MUST DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT NOW!
3:20 - Shoebills are actually pretty friendly towards people. Most of them will just be chill around people, but some will just stay away from you unless you bow to them, then they'll just be chill as well. They're even okay with humans approaching their nests.
So, with the last one, it is more fun to imagine something strange or inhuman, but the truth is it's because of competing tribes and species at the time, such as Neanderthals. There was some intermingling, but for the most part, they didn't get along and Neanderthals, while looking very human, weren't quite the same as humans. It's very possible that human/Neanderthal war greatly contributed to the disappearance of the Neanderthal species. But even when Neanderthals weren't a concern, we still had tribalism among humans, which the remnants of can still be seen today in modern societies and how we think of different people as "other" and not like us for all these ideas that are just made up concepts(religion, ideology, gender, etc). So, in the early days, people learned to recognize friend or foe based on outward appearances, be it skin color, clothing choices or makes, and so on. Human, but "other" to the tribe. It's sadly also why different people such as albino or redheads in many cultures were treated as if they were cursed when they were born into a society that looked nothing like them, often being abused, mistreated or outcast by their village. The truth behind the Uncanny Valley being already ingrained in us is a sad one, but it's always interesting to imagine something creepier without the tragedy.
im pretty sure the opening image is an osage orange. We were always told that they kept inscects away (it does but its not concentrated enough in the fruit to be of any real use). The wood itself is pretty dense and has a lot of uses, primarily fencing, handtools, bows etc. Golf course near where i grew up used to use them as a wind shield on their course

this is accurate; Uncanny Valley is our brains saying "this isn't normal, is it a threat?!"
@@trauben03 homo Sapiens and Neanderthals were thought to get along well and actually mate. Uncanny valley most likely just comes from diseases like rabies

That thing at the beginning is a hedge apple. Maclura pomifera, commonly known as the Osage orange, horse apple, hedge, or hedge apple tree is a small deciduous tree or large shrub, typically growing about 8 to 15 metres (30-50 ft) tall. The distinctive fruit, a multiple fruit, is roughly spherical, bumpy, 8 to 15 centimetres (3-6 in) in diameter, and turns bright yellow-green in the fall. The fruits secrete a sticky white latex when cut or damaged. Despite the name "Osage orange", it is not related to the orange. It is a member of the mulberry family, Moraceae. Due to its latex secretions and woody pulp, the fruit is typically not eaten by humans and rarely by foraging animals, giving it distinction as an anachronistic "ghost of evolution".
We call them horse apples where I’m from.
My family always called them "Monkey Brains", but that might just be us being weird
also the osage orange tree is a strong wood used for bows and architecture here in ohio. (also we call the hedge apple monkey brains) :)
We called them horse apples and used them to play baseball
Yoo some love for the osage orange trees, sweet we love bowling them down the road racing against walnuts here
Remember to buy glow in the dark spraypaint for those chicken wire ghosts. I've been wanting to do this for Halloween for many years. I can't find glow in the dark spraypaint in my country though, and I'm not sure I can shape the ghosts correctly. But I want to. Damn it, I want to so bad.

That bird isn't a crow or a raven, you can tell by the eyes. Crows and ravens have all-black eyes, this bird has blue irises, which means its a grackle. They're still common birds, just not corvids. They like to hang out near bird feeders and steal seeds from smaller birds, but they're generally friendly to humans!
Huh. I thought it was a a jackdaw because of its eyes.
@@melorawr1608 As did I
Okay, looked at some images of grackles and jackdaws and it looks closer to a Jackdaw (in my opinion).
They are also brood parasites like the cuckoos.
3:15 and fun fact they do not see humans as a threat and kinda just vibe with us
4:38 is anyone gonna talk about how the longer you stare at the image the creepier it becomes?
8:50 I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE WHO WAS TERRIFIED OF THOSE THINGS OH MY GOD
fun fact: the “things to lock up insane people” (5:11) are actually just small padded rooms that are usually in special ed classrooms. they were meant as a solo space if the kids get upset and violent where they can spend some time alone to cool off and beat up some walls if needed. they’re put in place for the safety of both the students and the administration.
Sounds like a stereotypical padded “insane room” but with permission and consent from the child. If they actually get consent from the child I guess it’s okay?
I was once in a school with one of these, it wasn't padded, they put in anyone that misbehaved like it was a punishment, one kid punched his hand through the tiny window on the door because they refused to let him out while he was screaming and he had to go to the hospital, my mom took me out of that school after that but she never knew I actually was put in that room once, they didn't close the door on me, and I stayed quiet the whole time so they let me out pretty fast, I have autism and adhd, so it was pretty hurtful, I think it was way back in elementary school?
@@testofplaces the only consent the child gives is getting violent, no conswnt there, nope, can be emotionally damaging in my opinion
Yeah, they're misused far more often than they're used like this. Overall they tend to be abused and have done much more harm than good, I suspect.
@@justseffstuff3308 i agree, my step mom is a special ed teacher and used to have one in her classroom and she rarely had to use it but she used it right

I remember I had a pool when I was younger. The lights in the pool always shocked you if you got too close. When you went near it you could FEEL the electricity of the light.
Lexi did not look nearly long enough at that artwork, they would have seen cthulu's arrival, the tentacles, bloodstains, smoking pentacle, deep sea horror beast, the hand in the drain etc, etc.
My mother made me terrified of the swimming pool intake. When she told me about a little girl who had all her internal organs sucked out of her butt when she went too close to one. I'm like wtf why would they let kids near something so dangerous?!.... then I grew up a bit and realised my mother was just a liar!
I think that was real wasn’t it?
@@Bisexual_Frog_Witch oh god don't tell me that!
Lol
It is very much real, her name is Abbey and she died later in the hospital since her injuries were fatal, also final destination has a death scene directly based off of that
If I'm not mistaken, Shoebill's are the ones where their babies occasionally fight while the mother watches and *she lets the loser starve.* Like, she straight up lets the one that loses die and only brings food for the winner thereafter. Great parenting!
6:45 I think Lexi misunderstood the OP's post and picture. I think they meant that before they bought the property the relatives spread the ashes of the previous owner. Now that OP has bought the property their camera took a picture of a strange humanoid figure out late at night, implying that it might be the ghost of the previous tenant. I think Lexi mistook the image to be relatives of the previous owner spreading the ashes late at night which is not the case.
My theory for the uncanney valley is other human species. For example the neanderthal
Who we bred into our gene pool to the extent that they survive as remnants in our DNA. So no.

I believe the uncanny valley one can be explained by us developing a fear of… corpses, because they are basically inanimate people, and the concept of death itself can just be terrifying enough to find a decomposing body horrifying, even if it’s the corpse of a loved one. It’s uncanny to see them rot away.
Plus they can be unhealthy to be around because of biohazards
The bird is actually even though it looks like it came straight up from hell and is known to decapitate crocodiles they will actually let people come up to the nests as long as you bow to them.

5:02 there is a good reason for these, I’ve been in them a few times •_•
When ASD kids go a little bit crazy, they can (and will) tear up everything around them, and potentially hurt teachers/aids, so they tend to put them in these till they calm down. I am very ashamed to say I’ve been in these a time or two, 5th grade was rough on me.
So yeah, they are common, at least in every school I was in they had them. Though usually they are in the ASD rooms away from everything
Nonsense.

Why did I even think about if Siren Head is real just from this sign
The Parisian street scene with the wolflike dog and terrified cat is full of tiny, disturbing details, including a ghostlike figure, a woman in black leading a scared, sickly looking child, a man with a crate of what look like soda bottles that are labelled as being toxic, and a small bicycle mirror in which you can see the eldritch horror that the cat is reacting to attacking the Eiffel Tower. It's a clever painting, and I would like to know who actually painted it. Also, the "room for crazy people" is called a "quiet room" and they are used (and often misused) in some schools on children whom the teachers deem problematic, though in my personal opiniion it's generally the teachers themselves who need to be locked away in a padded room!
3:26 I feel like I should be worried, but the sci-fi nerd in me just thinks this is the raddest shit ever.
*nods in nerdy agreement*
The uncanny valley thing probaly stems from when there were several species of humans living alongside each other. Being able to recognize your fellow congeners is an advantage when there's a bunch of other very similar species around...

I think my favorite theory about where the uncanny valley comes from is that it more or less probably comes from a fear of rabies. Same with the concept of zombies/the undead
Shoebill storks are so awesome. They are actually tied for my favorite bird.
They're cute and friendly. Seriously, you can just chill by their nest (with eggs, or without) and as long as you don't get too close or do anything that might hint towards "Im gonna eat yo babies" they just let you sit there and do whatever.
And I just checked, they are CRITICALLY endangered, not just endangered. :'(

Speaking of the uncanny valley theory, the people living in the Mandela Catalogue Universe have exactly what I would imagine to be what we would have needed to be afraid of.
I just looked that up just now at 2 in the morning, saw it, and it definitely made me afraid.
5:02 my old elementary school had those too. Teachers called them "safe rooms" (i.e you were put there when you were being a threat to yourself or others, so you'd become safe), so it was a bit of a partially-unspoken contest among us students whenever you got sent there, to see how fast you could figure out how to hurt yourself in it. by the time I graduated I held the record at 1 minute, 25 seconds by using an exposed nail to punch a hole through my earlobe.

5:02 something my elementary school did for kids that ‘heavily disrupted’ class (i.e have sever emotional/mental breakdowns or temper tantrums) was that they would lock them in the windowless sensory rooms that we had for the special ed kids without turning on the lights for about an hour or until they calmed down, and would then suspend the kids for about three days. Two off-duty teachers or security guards were to guard the room from the inside and physically prevent the kid from escaping.
I was given this punishment after having an emotional breakdown in the fourth grade, and to this day I still have a severe fear of the dark and any kind of confrontation by my current school or any of my school’s offerings of ‘help’ scare the crap out of me
About half of these would be great for D&D and other TTRPG magic and cursed items or plot lines.

The uncanny valley has some truth to it. Back in the day there were other types of humans that are extinct now. Like neanderthals for example. There were a ton more non human, humans. We were likely hunted by a few of them.
We, hunted by them? Ha, quite the contrary!
@@DrakoWulf Studies show we only survived because there was more of us, so we hunted more food leaving other non humans to starve, or mate with us. Either way we still won in the end.

Me, a Floridian: *Hard to argue with his assessment...*
The camera in a screw makes me feel even more suspicious of this guy whose house I visited to see if the room he was renting out was a good fit. He seemed nice for the most part (although he talked on and on and on about his whole life story and didn't seem to have much self awareness), but he told me about how his brother fooled around with him when he was a little boy and that's what he thinks made him bi. Like why did you tell me that??? Also he was kind of insistent on keeping this dresser in the room, even though I had my own furniture and he was willing to remove everything else. Just kinda gave me the creeps a little.
Fun fact; the shoebill stork, despite being upwards of 6 feet tall, actually tends to be friendly towards humans. And ravens are pretty easy to identify once you know how; they're the big glossy blue/black ones, that look like a hawk took a swim in an oil spill. Like, around 2 feet tall, whereas crows are a similar size to pigeons. Judging by the size of the boot, that's probably a crow.

In response to the thumbnail and title:

2:14, why does he look like mark zuckerburg
3:20 - Shoebills are actually pretty friendly towards people. Most of them will just be chill around people, but some will just stay away from you unless you bow to them, then they'll just be chill as well. They're even okay with humans approaching their nests.
So, with the last one, it is more fun to imagine something strange or inhuman, but the truth is it's because of competing tribes and species at the time, such as Neanderthals. There was some intermingling, but for the most part, they didn't get along and Neanderthals, while looking very human, weren't quite the same as humans. It's very possible that human/Neanderthal war greatly contributed to the disappearance of the Neanderthal species. But even when Neanderthals weren't a concern, we still had tribalism among humans, which the remnants of can still be seen today in modern societies and how we think of different people as "other" and not like us for all these ideas that are just made up concepts(religion, ideology, gender, etc). So, in the early days, people learned to recognize friend or foe based on outward appearances, be it skin color, clothing choices or makes, and so on. Human, but "other" to the tribe. It's sadly also why different people such as albino or redheads in many cultures were treated as if they were cursed when they were born into a society that looked nothing like them, often being abused, mistreated or outcast by their village. The truth behind the Uncanny Valley being already ingrained in us is a sad one, but it's always interesting to imagine something creepier without the tragedy.
