Honestly loving how the internet has transformed horror as a genre, like args, creepypastas, found media horror, etc like it feels like there's been an explosion of creative horror fiction on the net and it's great.
Another one that I'd really suggest if you haven't watched it already would be Monument Mythos. Not so much because it's scary, but the lore of it. It's ending it's second season and it's about to move on to it's third season. It's absolutely massive.
Also worth noting. The first thing that the angel says when coming to marry, joseph, and the Shepard’s, is “be not afraid” which is noticeably absent here
Which makes sense since the angels in The Bible are described to look scary but in here the alts and Satan are using people's fear as a weapon so they have no reason to tell them to not be afraid
@@mrwrigh actually that’s a common myth. There are several different kinds of heavenly beings. The ones people seem to be confusing with angels are the seraphim. Actual angels are the messengers (angel actually means messenger in Hebrew) but they are described as looking like people, but with a bright radiance around them
Everyone remember! He targeted people in the 1980s And in the Mandela Area specifically for their plan, anyone outside of this frame is not targeted and can avoid the intruder things :D
This series is genuinely unnerving, I’ve watched horror series before, and in the night and didn’t usually get the creeps, but in the morning when I watched this series, I lost it, I still have nightmares after 3 days. It’s truly a series which shocks you down into the core.
At first it unnerved me. When I woke up about two or three days after, which is today, I randomly thought of it, and I couldn’t get any more sleep until my girlfriend had woke up & was out & about.
especially the video where it says something along the lines of "when the man in the corner is looking at you inches away from your face do not open your eyes" made me not open my eyes
The part that got my insides struggling was the “entity messing with victim’s dead body” video. I havent seen any piece of horror use that idea to its fullest extent, but man
I feel like the reason the entity steals children is to train their mind over his own reality because children have not yet been introduced properly to our reality so it will be easier for them to accept the other reality rather than adults who might loose thier minds when finding it out
True bro if matpat was like those others Theory people the one who's always serious i would have been sobbing cuz this is some stuff that i will cry to😭😭😭😭
One thing that used to scare me as a child in the 80's was the announcement at 10 every night "its 10 o'clock... do you know where your children are?" Scared the crap out of me every time I heard it.
it was just adults trying to paranoid parents bc children were wild back then so they needed to find a way to stop them xdd some things can be explained, im sure there is something more but im to lazy to think
Well considering the things that happened back then, Altanta child murders, those girls killed at camp, and a few other things... we made sure to make it home before dark.
Well, the most likely theory for the missing children is a pretty smart play. The intruder knows that a parent's worst FEAR is losing their child. Adding onto that the mom you-know'd herself after she lost her child, which means they can now possess her body.
"Distraught at the sight of her missing infant" "Distraught at the sight of her missing infant" "Distraught at the sight of her missing infant" "Distraught at the sight of her missing infant" "Distraught at the sight of her missing infant" "Distraught at the sight of her missing infant"
The "alter" that's stealing children can also be a metaphor for satan trying to severe their connection with God or the religion. Matthew 19:14 "Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.”
I watch it and when i paused on vol 1 and it showed that sketch i paused on it and looked at it for like 10-30 minutes and it looked like it was moving
When he said "The stepfather of Jesus" I was just like "I- I've never heard someone call him that-" And as a student in a catholic school, that just shocked me, but he's not wrong-
This series has given me a fear I haven't felt since I was a child. Theres is a part of my brain that is tricking me into thinking that it could be real and I hate it.
Ha! I am not scared I am just going to bed with the lights on, surrounded by the holy ikons, with the tv unplugged and wearing my Cross because you know to spice it up... yeah... yeah...

Same. I'm usually unaffected by these things, but something about the Mandela Catalogue does it for me. I'm still thinking it might be because I was raised catholic, but even then...I usually love stuff that plays with mythology, religion, lore. So why does this manage to creep me out!?! xD
@Pee Pee I wonder if that's part of it. The cartoon parts really disturb me, and that might be because I was raised on those stories. Combine with the uncanny valley factor...and this is just the right amount of atmospheric and psychological horror to make me squirm, I guess. xD
I just noticed that at 9:20 he says “Can you feed the cat?” Well there was a new Mandela catalogue and it talks about a cat. Hmmmm Matpat is the person that predicts stuff not even on purpose.
I know I’m late, but when I was rewatching the series, I noticed that at 0:32 of Mandela Calagoue Vol 1, it says that an alternate can be identified by looking identical to you. If alternates are created by people killing themselves to come back as members of Satan’s army, then you would never see an alternate of yourself. In order for there to be a “you” alternate, you would need to be dead.

"They exist on different spectrums" tells me that they're able to morph between spectrums of light including radio waves. it's also kind of ties into the "he will appear as an angel of Light".
I'm pretty sure Lucifer means "Bearer of Light" (since he used to be an angel) making him an (ex) angel of light, so it would also make sense if he appeared to others in some version of his old angel form
2 Corinthians 11:13-14 13 These people are false apostles. They are deceitful workers who disguise themselves as apostles of Christ. 14 But I am not surprised! Even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. 15 So it is no wonder that his servants also disguise themselves as servants of righteousness. In the end they will get the punishment their wicked deeds deserve.
Me: Afraid of religious horror Me: Finds the Mandela Catalogue without knowing its religious horror and gets invested in the story And lastly, me: Absolutely terrified but still watching
@Big Juice Same, but I'm a Christan who happens to be Lgbtq+ so it's more of the fact that throughout my entire life I was told to be terrified of God because of me being lgbtq+.
I relate as a Christian, I have come to realize as an adult, this content is terrifying. I started to watch this alone till i had my brother watch the rest with me. He didn't feel so great either. It was well done, don't get me wrong. But just something other than just horror.
Matt: Explains contents of analog horror, able to silence a man to nightmares and digs deep into horrifying lore and therories. Also Matt: “ thanks for ridge Wallet for sponsoring us”
In case anyone needs to hear this: The Mandela Catalogue is a work of fiction. Dopplegangers looking to replace you and everyone you love aren't going to come through the tv screen; physical, almost-human creatures aren't going to whisper your darkest fears leading to you to hurt yourself; the police and other emergency services won't ignore your calls for help. While it's fun to pretend and play along, at the end of the day, this series exists inside a fictional universe, not this one. You are safe Take care of yourselves
@@mybagisfull No, but it can still spark little bits and pieces of paranoia in someones mind, if they happen to be vulnerable to certain topics (for example, the unknown of our reality) or imagery, which can lead them to feel unsafe in their own houses or minds :/
@@mybagisfull To add on to what @kris isnt funny was saying, there are people who suffer from depersonalization and derealization, so if they jump into the Mandela Catalogue completely blind, it could be a huge trigger for that. Even if they're aware it's just analog horror or an ARG, it might take a ton of effort to calm down the rest of their system
i am easily scared but also very addicted to stuff like this, but of course i have nightmares. But somebody actually talking and explaining stuff makes me feel safe. I dont know if somebody will read this but Thank you :)
@@bungabean3292 Make sure to report the comments as spam!!! I can’t believe they’re now hiding in the comment to the comment section . Soooooo annoying 🙄
My take is that when the “Gabriel” stumbles on the first letter of the word “angel”, he wasn’t saying “I am the alien”, he was saying “I am the Antichrist”. Also, if Alex read up on some Bible theory, he would know that demons usually appear as humans with certain warped or irregular features. The alternates fit this profile perfectly.
If anyone else want another similar theory/explanation on the Mendela catalog I’d recommend the video done by wendigoon. He also goes in-depth into this series and has some amazing analysis that is a bit more organised (matpat did a great job too but it would probably make more sense). Wendigoon had also talked to the creator himself and builds his theory on the recommended way of watching the videos (which is to start on the video ‘the Mandela catalogue - The THINK Principle).
If you have a little Lovecraftian Knowledge, you can really imagine that the "Angel" Figure has real close traits to Nyarlathotep, the Underling of the Eldrich Gods, who blends in with men, lies to them, and makes them either become his followers or reach madness.
Nyarlethotep is an outer god himself and is only bound to azathoth in lovecraftian lore. I imagine it's not an arrangement nyarlethotep would be happy about since if azathoth Wakes up it's all over and that would spoil his fun.
@@john-paull4943 The Cthulhu Mythos, aka the fictional universe of H.P. Lovecraft's that encompasses all of the monsters/gods he wrote about (though other authors worked on it as well).
Nice. Wasn't the Slenderman also based on Nyarlathotep? Victor Surge apparently had Lovecraftian horror in mind among some other works when he created the mythos. Idk if the Slenderman was meant to be a direct parallel to the Eldritch God but there's definitely a similarity in form and behavior, there's even a Fandom page about it.
@@Dski190 not really with quiet place you can’t make a noise with the mandela catalogue you can’t hear something or it will drive you mad and with bird box you can’t see something or it will drive you mad do you see the similarities
I found this theory to be extra creepy. The mixture of spiritual and sci-horror hits the sweet spot for me, and the imagery is very unsettling. Something about that decades old vintage look to things makes it way more disturbing. I'm excited for the next part!
“Something about the 1980s was terrifying” it’s the production quality. Lots of old vhs camera quality, packed condensed sound, low quality material strips your senses of clear stimulus so it adds that small sense of uncertainty to your body and it effectively makes you fear/feel different with old school horror. For example old Texas chainsaw compared to reboots
As someone who believes in God, this is genuinely terrifying cause how the story is deformed and twisted into a nightmare version of where Satan made himself into God
And worst of all is the name Mandela, if you don't know what Mandela means and as if it was one thing that everyone remembers most it was actually something else and that's scary since the show is Saying that this will happen
@@Lucas-lo2vh Ever since 2020 happen we’ve been living revelation that’s the last chapter of the Bible. It also forced all people, great and small, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hands or on their foreheads -Revelation 13:16
It's funny how, in less than a week of sleep loss, people hallucinate. I went a week without sleep once because I was afraid, and I wasn't tired and had none of the mentioned side effects. The only thing was that once I was back home, I immediately fell asleep.
3:49 I dont believe it stuttered on the word “Alien”. I think it was saying “Alternate”, because the face is censored due to it not wanting to reveal itself.
I've been wondering why those animated bible segments looked so familiar and it turns out I had a Beginners Bible book when I was younger. Sort of a freaky coincidence.
@@tankboi for me growing up in a muslim family I haven't seen the beginners bible but I've seen enough islamic cartoons for this to scare the crap out of me
1. In occult practices, it is well known that demons use mirrors as gateways to our world. 2. Have you considered Lilith (according to some traditions, Adam’s first wife who became a demon) might be the demonic intruder? She traditionally went after children.
@@odd-arnedahle2173 it probably depends, some don’t clearly have one, some weren’t human but do have genders, and some were human and did have genders. And Lilith is definitely female and the picture looks male.
The concept of lillith is a ‘new age’ pseudo religious idea that came from NO tradition. It is the modern day attempted to make the sacred profane as usual. But well done about the mirrors
Matpat: this one will give you nightmare fuel for days Me who is terrified of all things horror: seems like a good thing to watch at 11:39PM Oh no did I just realize my fear?
The Mandela Catalogue gave me something to draw on my church's chalkboard to mess with them, thank you for introducing me to this beautiful work of art.
So I got a theory on how would someone defeat an alternate. It's confirmed that alternates have a physical form and can move physically and through TV's (probably mirrors too). Perhaps they go invisible for stealth and shows themselves when it finds it's prey. Also I don't think they can harm physically either, they like to inflict fear and madness to basically scare their prey to death. So the trick is to resist fear at all costs for example shout some really messed up stuff. They can't harm physically so go ape crap on them, one of the videos confirm they are killable. They're not omnipotent either, they don't always know your location since you can hide apparently so traps and sneak attacks are a viable option. And also never take your eyes off them, you don't want to lose track of them or you'll get scared. Staring at them will probably mess you up so remember try making the situation ridiculous and stupid. As far as I know as long as you can resist the fear the alternate will fear you.
I think there is a spectrum of them. Remember there is confirmed types of alternates and it may be possible that some can not physically harm you directly while others can. One that can't harm directly may have limits too such as needing to be visually seen to cause psychological death. Like, the one behind Mark's door may not have been physically strong enough to fight him nor force open the door so it relied on coaxing him out where it could begin it's psychological attack (it may need to be seen in order to do this with maximum effectiveness).
There's pretty much no evidence that they CAN'T physically hurt you, just that they will always prefer not to and are happy to wait and pysch you out because fear seems to be their main directive.
@@ostrich3335 I understand that you might not find it that bad, but as someone who couldn’t sleep after a week from the Waltern fiels, I’ve learned from my mistake
"the intruder can travel through tvs and kidnap children." Man, I did not know the Thin Man from Little Nightmares was that mad at Six for her betrayal.
YESSS! Mandela Catalogue is probably my favorite analogue, with L58 being a close contender I highly recommend checking out the Monument Mythos series. It's another analog series, but it's not really horror more than just Found footage and it is PACKED with lore. You might like it
when she says “I know your greatest fears” I think we can all agree that someone whispering that she knows our greatest fears would probably be one of our greatest fears
As a Christian, this absolutely terrifies me cause it could be a metaphor for how easily Satan can sneak his way into our lives. I also see it as a metaphor for how easily he can distort the truth
"Believe in god, but question the teachings of man." Kind of difficult to do when it's men who translated the bible. Suddenly religion doesn't seem very comfy anymore, what lies and manipulations have people slipped into god's word?
@@GoodfellaZeta4873 God provided the translation. Besides in Revelations, it says that if anyone takes away from or changes anything in His word, then they will lose their place in Heaven
@@evantgm1055 "if anyone takes away from or changes anything in His word, then they will lose their place in Heaven" I thought it said in the bible that they would die on the spot for mistranslating? or does it depend on the translation?
It should also be noted that, like in “The call of Cthulhu”, not everyone who experiences MAD commits suicide, 3% of them survive. Now, what we know about the survivors of Cthulhu in his story, is that they become _followers_ of Cthulhu, they worship him and “spread the good word” of Cthulhu, so to say. So, in the Mandela Catalogue, is it possible that the people who _don’t_ take their own lives could potentially become followers of the entity, whether it be the devil or an alien, and could perhaps be the people in the TV that can enter people’s homes and kidnap children? *I think it’s definitely possible, but that’s just me.*
Lmao, here's the thing Satan in this setting is not the anti christ. Satan IS Christ. He has fooled everyone into believing Jesus is a savior, a messiah When in reality Jesus is a form of alternate
Alex the creator of the mandela catalogue is so phenomenal with his analog horror series like this series is so entertaining and very interesting. The lore and the story he makes is top tier. Like I can't wait for his newest video that coming out this month. I am looking forward this newest video, Alex. Kept up the phenomenal work. And matpat please do the battington tapes. They are so good as well.
I work in an RF lab, and use Bluetooth headphones, so on occasion when tests are running my sound will cut out. In this case , the sound cut out when Mat was explaining about the TV intruder, and came back after a few seconds, just in time to hear the "I'm inside your home" part. Freaked me out for a sec
If anyone wants to know what canonical order to watch these episodes in, I’m here to help 1) “The THINK principal” 2) “The Mandela Catalogue vol.1” 3) “Overthrone” 4) “Metaphysical Awareness Disorder” 5) “Intruder Alert” 6)”Exhibition” I hope this helped!
@ Zanetti It would be the latest in the timeline because it takes place in 2009. It could come before exhibition but for what we know it’s the latest one
Honestly, watching you react to the series was such a fun experience, and you talking about how Time travel might be an important element made me think that maybe the alternates aren't aliens or demons or anything supernatural, but that they are just people, time traveling, becoming distorted and messed up and corrupted as they try to change the past.
What's very impressive is that Alex Kister actually made all of these videos without a budget. If he can make a series this scary without one, I dread to think what he's capable of WITH a budget.
then again part of why its so scary its how authentically old and low-quality it seems which immerses us in its world. if it had a bigger budget i dont think the creator would make it look any different anyway, because the way it looks like this helps the horror a LOT
This analog horror legit gave me some trouble sleeping the last few days. I’ll just be trying to sleep then I’ll remember about the Mandela catalogue and take a look at all the corners in my room in the dark
It's extra terrifying to me because in all seriousness, in the early 90s my family owned and forced me and my siblings to watch the Beginners Bible cartoon vhs tapes feature here because "normal tv would poision our minds, it's full of satanic propoganda".

Hi! Slight correction, The greatest sin according to Dante's Inferno is not fraud but "Treachery" because he was chewing on Judas, Brutus, and Cassius, the biggest historical traitors at the time
You’re correct, treachery is the final room! However, treachery is categorized as a subcategory of fraud, as it was originally noted as “fraud against benefactor”, if I’m not mistaken.
Fraud is the level above, subdivided into ten ditches or Bolgia. Treachery is subdivided into four rounds: against family, against community, against guests, and against masters

"It looks to be a blue alien ripped straight out of James Cameron's Avatar." "Whatever this thing is, it ain't an angel." I have to agree. Real angels are horrifying beasts as tall as the Chrysler Building. That thing looks like a failed Captain America ice pop.

Same. I'm usually unaffected by these things, but something about the Mandela Catalogue does it for me. I'm still thinking it might be because I was raised catholic, but even then...I usually love stuff that plays with mythology, religion, lore. So why does this manage to creep me out!?! xD

It's actually just one dude doing all of this.
@Pee Pee I wonder if that's part of it. The cartoon parts really disturb me, and that might be because I was raised on those stories. Combine with the uncanny valley factor...and this is just the right amount of atmospheric and psychological horror to make me squirm, I guess. xD

Stolen comment
I know I’m late, but when I was rewatching the series, I noticed that at 0:32 of Mandela Calagoue Vol 1, it says that an alternate can be identified by looking identical to you. If alternates are created by people killing themselves to come back as members of Satan’s army, then you would never see an alternate of yourself. In order for there to be a “you” alternate, you would need to be dead.
thats genius good job bro

I read it as "an angel of Luigi"
@@billybobjoephilcorncobtiptopge nice
A very possible outcome
I'm pretty sure Lucifer means "Bearer of Light" (since he used to be an angel) making him an (ex) angel of light, so it would also make sense if he appeared to others in some version of his old angel form
2 Corinthians 11:13-14 13 These people are false apostles. They are deceitful workers who disguise themselves as apostles of Christ. 14 But I am not surprised! Even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. 15 So it is no wonder that his servants also disguise themselves as servants of righteousness. In the end they will get the punishment their wicked deeds deserve.
Me: Afraid of religious horror

Can I ask why you are afraid of "religious horror" specifically? Not to judge just curious.
Same with me and im not religious
I'm pretty sure "Gabriel" was the Antichrist
@Big Juice Same, but I'm a Christan who happens to be Lgbtq+ so it's more of the fact that throughout my entire life I was told to be terrified of God because of me being lgbtq+.
I relate as a Christian, I have come to realize as an adult, this content is terrifying. I started to watch this alone till i had my brother watch the rest with me. He didn't feel so great either. It was well done, don't get me wrong. But just something other than just horror.

My take is that when the “Gabriel” stumbles on the first letter of the word “angel”, he wasn’t saying “I am the alien”, he was saying “I am the Antichrist”. Also, if Alex read up on some Bible theory, he would know that demons usually appear as humans with certain warped or irregular features. The alternates fit this profile perfectly.
Makes more sense
Good take

If you have a little Lovecraftian Knowledge, you can really imagine that the "Angel" Figure has real close traits to Nyarlathotep, the Underling of the Eldrich Gods, who blends in with men, lies to them, and makes them either become his followers or reach madness.
Nyarlethotep isn’t the underling, I’m pretty sure he’s FAR alive most of the others. Cthulhu is the underling.
Nyarlethotep is an outer god himself and is only bound to azathoth in lovecraftian lore. I imagine it's not an arrangement nyarlethotep would be happy about since if azathoth Wakes up it's all over and that would spoil his fun.

Nice. Wasn't the Slenderman also based on Nyarlathotep? Victor Surge apparently had Lovecraftian horror in mind among some other works when he created the mythos. Idk if the Slenderman was meant to be a direct parallel to the Eldritch God but there's definitely a similarity in form and behavior, there's even a Fandom page about it.

Lol same
I absolutely hate when magic and technology combines because togheter it makes absolute horror
How does fear fuel you with excitement? I do not understand.
“Something about the 1980s was terrifying” it’s the production quality. Lots of old vhs camera quality, packed condensed sound, low quality material strips your senses of clear stimulus so it adds that small sense of uncertainty to your body and it effectively makes you fear/feel different with old school horror. For example old Texas chainsaw compared to reboots
The 1980s also had real life slashers (dahmer for example) and the satanic panic
As someone who believes in God, this is genuinely terrifying cause how the story is deformed and twisted into a nightmare version of where Satan made himself into God
I was just thinking that
And worst of all is the name Mandela, if you don't know what Mandela means and as if it was one thing that everyone remembers most it was actually something else and that's scary since the show is Saying that this will happen

Bro know I know the best thing to draw in my theology of the body notebook thanks
😳
So I got a theory on how would someone defeat an alternate.
It's confirmed that alternates have a physical form and can move physically and through TV's (probably mirrors too).
Perhaps they go invisible for stealth and shows themselves when it finds it's prey.
Also I don't think they can harm physically either, they like to inflict fear and madness to basically scare their prey to death.
So the trick is to resist fear at all costs for example shout some really messed up stuff. They can't harm physically so go ape crap on them, one of the videos confirm they are killable. They're not omnipotent either, they don't always know your location since you can hide apparently so traps and sneak attacks are a viable option.
And also never take your eyes off them, you don't want to lose track of them or you'll get scared. Staring at them will probably mess you up so remember try making the situation ridiculous and stupid.
As far as I know as long as you can resist the fear the alternate will fear you.
I think they can do it physically, because the one is stealing babies, so it can interact with people.
I think there is a spectrum of them. Remember there is confirmed types of alternates and it may be possible that some can not physically harm you directly while others can. One that can't harm directly may have limits too such as needing to be visually seen to cause psychological death. Like, the one behind Mark's door may not have been physically strong enough to fight him nor force open the door so it relied on coaxing him out where it could begin it's psychological attack (it may need to be seen in order to do this with maximum effectiveness).
There's pretty much no evidence that they CAN'T physically hurt you, just that they will always prefer not to and are happy to wait and pysch you out because fear seems to be their main directive.

Never thought anything could top the terror of biblically accurate angels.
The angels are "scary" to scare demons Satan was the strongest angel so he is far scarier than an angel
@J Dude
No.
The cult of Moloch
Human looking angels are also "biblically accurate"
I don't think biblically accurate Angels even try to be scary.
It should also be noted that, like in “The call of Cthulhu”, not everyone who experiences MAD commits suicide, 3% of them survive.
Now, what we know about the survivors of Cthulhu in his story, is that they become _followers_ of Cthulhu, they worship him and “spread the good word” of Cthulhu, so to say.
So, in the Mandela Catalogue, is it possible that the people who _don’t_ take their own lives could potentially become followers of the entity, whether it be the devil or an alien, and could perhaps be the people in the TV that can enter people’s homes and kidnap children? *I think it’s definitely possible, but that’s just me.*
But hey, that's just a theory, YOUR THEORY! Good theory!
@@RozyPoyo thank you :D
Very good theory!
also MC isnt about aliens its about the takeover pf earth by devils
the 3% are probably "replaced" already. the moment you contract MAD, you're doomed to be a chess pawn or a corpse up for mangling by the intruders.

Honestly, watching you react to the series was such a fun experience, and you talking about how Time travel might be an important element made me think that maybe the alternates aren't aliens or demons or anything supernatural, but that they are just people, time traveling, becoming distorted and messed up and corrupted as they try to change the past.
Now *that* is an interesting idea!
I love that idea so much
the ad at the end lifted my mood so much so uh thanks-
What's very impressive is that Alex Kister actually made all of these videos without a budget. If he can make a series this scary without one, I dread to think what he's capable of WITH a budget.
then again part of why its so scary its how authentically old and low-quality it seems which immerses us in its world. if it had a bigger budget i dont think the creator would make it look any different anyway, because the way it looks like this helps the horror a LOT

This story gave me chills! Love the mysterious vibe!
I love this series, it's the channel that got me into analogue horror in the first place
Great video!
I hope he does Harmony and Horror
this is 2ndua-cam.com/video/Fe4oBx8D8kQ/v-deo.html place
It's extra terrifying to me because in all seriousness, in the early 90s my family owned and forced me and my siblings to watch the Beginners Bible cartoon vhs tapes feature here because "normal tv would poision our minds, it's full of satanic propoganda". No joke. I LIVED this concept... bringing back repressed memories of religious trauma AND analog horror?? Amazing (ly horrifying)
I’m sorry that your family was so religious crazy.
@@soundwavesuperior28 i think its a good thing tho
My mom made me do this as well this is why religious stuff scares me…
@@Human_traain Nah son, That's not.
This is batshit creepy and I'm not even Christian! (Well, I'm still in between if I believe in God or not)
@@gachamoon_xx5235 same, i kinda do, but idk if god is a general entity or like jesus specifically, pretty tough, i just study buddha mostly these days, i also believe in rebirth, idk how all that fuses together haha
this is truly the only thing I have ever watched that I was unable to finish a single episode of because of how terrifying it is!
Wowww ua-cam.com/video/FSSFgWlDbJU/v-deo.html………….
I once saw another theory on it, and I clicked off ‘cause I was that scared. I didn’t even get halfway through the video.
Even watching this theory video made me too scared to stay alone in my room. I can’t even think about watching the actual Mandela Catalogue videos.
I swear, MatPat makes me feel so comfortable watching horror movies/series or literally anything that revolves a jump scare.
I love how the warning was like "Don't let your kids watch T.V., it may project scary imagery" and I was watching jumpscare videos for fun when I was like eight lmao
I'm pretty sure that, in the 90's, my best friend was watching all sort of horror films at 7. She told me of people getting their eyes clawed out and it really put little baby me off watching horror films for half a decade while she was OBVIOUSLY grown up.
same
@@river7591 SAMEEEEE
please when i was eight i was to scared to even look at the real models of fnaf sisterlocation so all i could watch where the minecraft mv's rip lol
@@Bseaz Omg iconic
Hi! Slight correction, The greatest sin according to Dante's Inferno is not fraud but "Treachery" because he was chewing on Judas, Brutus, and Cassius, the biggest historical traitors at the time
You’re correct, treachery is the final room! However, treachery is categorized as a subcategory of fraud, as it was originally noted as “fraud against benefactor”, if I’m not mistaken.
Fraud is the level above, subdivided into ten ditches or Bolgia. Treachery is subdivided into four rounds: against family, against community, against guests, and against masters
@@Dracosfire14 Oh, right! Must have gotten them mixed up, thank you for the correct info!
Fnaf never kept me up at night as a child, now that I am older and watch analog horror, it is one of the scariest experiences, not even with jump scares, just with wonder and perception
"It looks to be a blue alien ripped straight out of James Cameron's Avatar." "Whatever this thing is, it ain't an angel."
I have to agree. Real angels are horrifying beasts as tall as the Chrysler Building. That thing looks like a failed Captain America ice pop.
There are different degrees of angels some of which appear as ringed halos who are as big as the bowls of a sink and those which are millions of miles across in wings span
@@CultOfCausality plus they have a tier scale
Angels Arch Angels , and Princpalities are the lowest tiers and look the most human or just look human in general as they are the closest to mankind.
Gabriel is an Arch Angel
@@ultramangeed624 but is there a tier list that ranks them based on whether they are S tier, A tier, etc? that's one of the most valuable tier systems to me. and is the traditional tier ranking system based on size? or something else?
I'm a heathen non believer but I find how these things are organized very fascinating. and did god supposedly pass on the knowledge or are there people who do taxonomy for this kind of stuff? because taxonomy is a legitimate discipline in scientific fields, you can't just group a bunch of stuff together just because it looks the same because once you get into the nitty gritty, the classifications we give stuff based on the way things look are usually really wrong.
so is there any kind of rigorous organizational method? or did some old dudes just wing it a thousand years ago and now everyone who believes this sort of thing has to just live with it?
shoutout to the Chrystal Building, btw. it's good to see it getting some love
@@sethescope less a tier and more a hierarchy
The higher they are the more powerful they are and more important the job they have
Ah, just when I thought I was over my fear of the Mandela Catalogue.
You can not overcome the fear you can only forget about it
@@mariahowlett625 oh my god
Just think about Jerma whenever the alternate face shows up
as long as you hide in the comments you can
@@BlueRGuy when the alternate is sus
I would love to see your take on the Monument Mythos series. It’s an alternate timeline with cosmic horror and government conspiracy. The perfect blend if you ask me.
Have you seen Wendigoons video on it? Its a long watch, but its worth it
Might make the suggestion on the subreddit
Please
As someone with horrible claustrophobia, Lincoln Lookers really get me.
panic
15:53 is useful. I now know what Matpat's family looks like.
