@@Roloki454i mean jumpscares are scary and so is ugly monsters and blood but the audience expects it therefore they look for something else like a well done psychological horror
i can't believe no one has pointed it out yet, but based on the examples given to us, the delusions are not those of grandeur but rather persecutory delusions. Persecutory delusions are the extreme paranoia and attitude of "someone/something is out to get me." Grandiose delusions are inflated sense of belonging, self-worth, or superiority to others, which I think I can safely say those people are NOT experiencing. Seems like a pretty big oversight
I agree, I think it may be deliberate. But also being called delusions of grandeur from an outside point of view? The person experiencing them would call them persecutory, but to an outside person they could be grandeur because they think themselves highly enough that something has decided to come after them. That's how I see it at least
People with Fatal Familial Insomnia are unable to move past stage 1 sleep, and usually die within a year after symptoms show. No one knows why exactly, though. Putting them into induced comas, using sedatives ect only seem to speed up the symptoms. Very rare, but very scary. Because it's not understood why not just sleep, but certain stages of sleep are so important
wondered why all the youtube shorts recommended next to this video were from the fear and hunger guy only to look over to the uploader and realize that it was, in fact, the fear and hunger guy
I'm gonna be real. I really appreciate both the original series and this video, but with the quality of said work the only really disturbing thing, for me, was having to manage the volume so I could hear the review without getting blasted by the series's "spooky" static, beeps and screams. Should consider settling for a single volume for both sides of the work.
I must say that it is great to see a creator taking feedback from fans and listening. most of the time feedback can be taken offensively but I’m glad you can see where improvements can be made. Big ups
it's great to see you branching out from fear and hunger into adjacent horror media. This video was amazing and I'd love to see more like them! Keep up the amazing work!
Finally, I made time to watch this video. I'm glad i did. In my opinion, this anolog horror leaves a lot to be desired. Especially standing next to works like Mystery Flesh Pit National Park, Vita Carnis, and Midwest Angela, this series seems to fall flat. Honestly, i love the premise that surrounds the idea of making the viewer consider the concept of something so human as sleep as terrifying. They did an amazing job with building an overarching narrative centered entirely around the concept. Unfortunately, in my opinion, the execution renders the themes innefectual due to an overreliance on AI voices that don't sell the emotion vital to communicating a sense of deep human fear the work wants to inspire. The writing is ostensibly fleshed out to prompt the audience to recontexualize the normally safe and comforting idea of sleep and dreams as something to fear, and it lingers beyond the initial viewing in the minds of those preparing to sleep after viewing. The choice to attempt capturing conversations between people whether causal, in the case of phone calls documented between husband and wife, or in formal scientific reports from doctors studying the phenomenon, do not sell the reality of seeing this horror in real life. On top of this, it appears that the writer may not speak English as their first language. This alone is no criticism, but it undermines the tone to see "official PSA broadcasts" not understand the difference between 'affect' and 'effect'. Additionally the constant syntax and grammar issues make this feel like an amateurish work, even though it was easy to see it was very high effort. My review of the series, though, is only secondary to my real reason for this comment, to let you know that the best part of this video was not the work the video is based on, but you Mouth Dog. Your poignancy in writing and your ability to frame a narrative is astounding. Your ability to enhance your great writing with your grave-yet-comforting voice is why i watch your videos over and over again. These are all qualities this series could have benefited from, and it makes me think you could do an original horror narrative incredibly well. Im looking foreard to your next deep dive ❤ Also the way you began the video was an incredible hook 🪝

As a genre grows and expands you’re going to get more and more mixed quality of content. While most are going to be okay some will be great and others are going to be bad. I think it might be getting to the point where though people might like one or two series they don’t like the genre as a whole and maybe that’s what’s happening if you find them goofy. Logically all analog horror concepts paint a global and existential crisis but they weirdly focus on single individuals from super small towns and small organizations only participating. Vita Carnis does the best of making the scale feel large and involving government level institutes while Mandela catalogue has that big issue to me of wanting to be a large scale cosmic threat while staying at the small scale individual level horror which it frequently fails at if you ask me.
As someone who has/is suffering with a rarely seen form of severe insomnia and have for most of my life, this is particularly horrifying. I can’t quite put into words what it’s like being awake for days at a time. In high school I was known for collapsing from exhaustion every once in a while. It was a running joke, asking me how much I slept the previous night. The joke was that you could immediately tell approximately how long it had been based on my reaction, around the 3 day mark my answer to the question would be uproarious laughter with no hesitation whatsoever (which was usually genuine). 4-5 days I get my second wind and function rather normally. After that, I go low-power mode and am prone to falling asleep in the middle of conversations or just eating dust. It’s not as bad nowadays but when my PTSD causes me issues, the hyper-vigilance kicks in and I’m extremely lucky to get a few hours every other night. I’ve got compounding mental health and genetic factors (or that’s the theory atleast) combined with (mild?) brain damage from a combination of head trauma and medical trauma, so it’s probably not something y’all will have to worry about. I’m so well-versed in sleep therapies and hygiene that by the time I left all of my long-term intensive therapy stints, I was teaching the classes for kicks because I was bored out of my skull, so don’t even try to go that route with me. Concurrently, I’ve tried every med available for sleep and one works: Ambien. Unfortunately though, I’ve been taking it for years and it’s not recommended for long-term use so I limit my usage to emergencies. Similarly, most medications with a ‘sedative’ affect either have no effect on me or will do the exact opposite and I will start tweaking (like actually running around screaming, doing power squats for an hour, ripping out IVs and fighting staff, the whole nine yards). You can imagine how this was a massive problem during ANY of my past surgical procedures. I’ve woken up in the middle of 2 and for 4 of them I became EXTREMELY combative out of straight up delusional notions that my life was somehow in danger. This is another massive problem when you consider the fact that I’ve been an athlete for the majority of my life. I’m a black belt in MMA and I’ve been playing softball since I was in the first grade (recently retired) interspersed with 2 dozen unique sports that I tried out for a while, each. This includes fencing, synchronized swimming, Tae Kwon Do among other things. Combine those with the fact that I come out of surgery believing that all of the nurses and doctors are there to harvest my brain for the government and you have a major, massive issue. This is also in tandem with the fact that I’m a 5 foot tall female and so it’s really, REALLY easy to assume I can’t pick up a grown man and toss him but I’m stalky with dense muscle mass and years of functional weight training under my belt. I won’t go into detail except to communicate that I’m personally responsible for the retirement of well-known and respected physicians across Seattle, I will NEVER do ketamine because it makes me sick as hell, and I apologize to the staff who would have to put me back together after security managed to take me down. Literally. But that’s not all. When I do sleep, even when medicated, sleep paralysis doesn’t kick in. This isn’t a huge issue when I’m petting a dog in my dreams but the problem is that I have frequent hyper-realistic, fully fleshed-out night terrors in which I will usually have to physically fight someone or something. I’ve broken and destroyed so many things when I sleep that I actively check to make sure any furniture I may be sleeping on can withstand a full-force kick from me. My bed frame is currently steel. There are holes in the wall, I’ve punched my fiancé in the face, I even kicked my dog one time (he’s okay he’s a 60 pound pittie but I scared the shit out of him). Now combine that with being prone to microsleeps and falling asleep in odd, semi-public places after not sleeping for a while, and I’ve literally assaulted people I barely know in my sleep. I’m not gonna lie, it’s pretty fucked. One last thing. My artist tag is Bibliophile Insomniac and I have it tattooed on my ankle in my handwriting. I’m literally labeled as an insomniac. It’s been making me chuckle the whole video. Good work, keep it up.
I had a friend in highschool that had insomnia, I could tell how hard it was on him, he described just randomly falling asleep in some classes. Wish I kept in contact with him but I was a dumbass. I don't know how he or you do anything. I genuinely feel like I can barely function under 6 hrs of sleep. Under 5 hrs I've had mild hallucinations, hearing someone saying my name, and seeing something out of the corner of my eye.
@@omk573I have a whole album on my phone dedicated ONLY to pics of me, asleep in class, taken by other people (it’s all in good fun though, I love them)
@@BugLivestreams alas only a few do that, and even then, it can only do as good as you already did at thr time of drawing, best use of AI is feeding it background drawings and photos you yourself took, as for backgrounds AI is shockingly good. But people, its not good at.
It's not really important or anything but the belief that you've "been uniquely chosen for some unknown punishment" is not a delusion of grandeur, but one of persecution. I really wish that when analog horror creators wrote things that are supposed to be clinical notes/observations and the like that they'd get the very basics correct.
I’m gonna be honest, I really wanted to get into this but I just couldn’t. There was too much AI - the voices, the imagery, it really ruined the immersion. If somebody doesn’t care enough to use real content, why would I?
Honestly voices would've been one thing, ppl use computer generated ones all the time, but the rest yeah I agree. Disappointed hes giving attention and clout to shit that uses AI rather than something that put effort into its art
FIRST: This reminds me so much of the Billy Joel song, River of Dreams! I keep thinking this stems from something like the Philadelphia Experiment, since its origin is a shipyard/ocean. But that was in the 40s. So that would have to make the crew at least... 40, and certainly no women. And it's not near either port. But that would be cool. I think its people sacrificing to an incubus/succubus whose child is now expecting. The alien theory would explain the aging process, if they traveled through time and space theyd be much older. Idk it's a lot.
I'm Filipino, and it is called "Bangungot" in our language. It is true that people sometimes die in their sleep, without any warning. Healthy males just die suddenly. It is true, but the insomniac part and people dont sleep just to survive is the fiction part. 😂
[Danny Devito voice] "Bullshit. Bullshit. D e r i v a t i v e." This series was so blah. Just meh. You did a good enough job recapping it, but good gravy this series was just wholly unimpressive.
I think Dean's doctors just had regular involuntary insomnia. IUNDS kills vis extreme internal trauma to the nervous system followed by blood loss. It was possible to see that Dean had survived IUNDS without having to cut him open, and apparently he needed an emergency blood transfusion or several. His entire body was probably badly bruised and possibly partially crushed. He also mentioned that he was changed physically. I doubt he was a very pretty sight.
Thanks for the review, but this is a poor example of the genre. Crude, in-your-face, childishly written, no build, no atmosphere, nothing original, just bits of better analogue horror cobbled together. Look to Greylock, Local58, Gemini, perhaps Darewho, expand your palate and raise your standards.
" ONCE I PRACTICED THE SACRIFICE WITH MY BLOOD BOWL, _I'M DOING WAY BETTER_ " it'd be hilarious if this is the one member who actually isn't a part of all this insomnia stuff and is not at all touched by watchers-- he's genuinely just leading a healthier life through sheer psychopathy
Alr y’all say the pics weren’t scary but this is the genuinely the first time I’ve ever been scared by an arg. At around the 20 min mark I jumped and let out a small scream when I saw them lol
Anyone else feel like the faces have almost a pug like quality, especially the one in the thumbnail? The eyes are crosseyed outward, slightly bug eyed, the cheeks, i dont, but thats definitely what it reminds me of.
This over reliance on using "AI" on everything and using the same stale, boring and derivative themes & tropes is getting old real fast!! There wasn't a single scary image anywhere, it was all corny AI warping that literally made me facepalm myself multiple times in utter amazement that someone thought it worked. Now the premise was interesting and different, but the execution was horrible it felt like every other AH that's come out post Mandela, Greylock, Vita Carnis etc.
Self-induced sleep deprivation is a very bad idea. I did it for years working on artwork. It really harms your immune system. The type 2 diabetes I have now is probably thanks to that. As for someone dying in the middle of the night ...I have heard of that in real life. Not as an epidemic, but it happens.

I feel like if they really wanted everything to go the way they wanted they could literally just tech 1 very very very devoted and brainwashed follower and used the power of the dream to shape the reality they want by uses them
i have no lead you have not said after seeing this but just one question: if dreams are the reality we choose, then what would happen if everyone on earth was having the same controlled insomnia-dream?
If you're looking for more analog horror series that deserve more attention, then I have 3 series that I think you should check out: 1. Tryred Witness Archives 2. RICHLAND 3. Tbenett43 I guarantee you that these three are much better than most slop that you see in the analog horror genre.

This is also in tandem with the fact that I’m a 5 foot tall female and so it’s really, REALLY easy to assume I can’t pick up a grown man and toss him but I’m stalky with dense muscle mass and years of functional weight training under my belt. I won’t go into detail except to communicate that I’m personally responsible for the retirement of well-known and respected physicians across Seattle, I will NEVER do ketamine because it makes me sick as hell, and I apologize to the staff who would have to put me back together after security managed to take me down. Literally. But that’s not all. When I do sleep, even when medicated, sleep paralysis doesn’t kick in. This isn’t a huge issue when I’m petting a dog in my dreams but the problem is that I have frequent hyper-realistic, fully fleshed-out night terrors in which I will usually have to physically fight someone or something. I’ve broken and destroyed so many things when I sleep that I actively check to make sure any furniture I may be sleeping on can withstand a full-force kick from me. My bed frame is currently steel. There are holes in the wall, I’ve punched my fiancé in the face, I even kicked my dog one time (he’s okay he’s a 60 pound pittie but I scared the shit out of him). Now combine that with being prone to microsleeps and falling asleep in odd, semi-public places after not sleeping for a while, and I’ve literally assaulted people I barely know in my sleep. I’m not gonna lie, it’s pretty fucked. One last thing. My artist tag is Bibliophile Insomniac and I have it tattooed on my ankle in my handwriting. I’m literally labeled as an insomniac. It’s been making me chuckle the whole video. Good work, keep it up.
You need a nap.
jesus christ dude
I had a friend in highschool that had insomnia, I could tell how hard it was on him, he described just randomly falling asleep in some classes. Wish I kept in contact with him but I was a dumbass.
I don't know how he or you do anything. I genuinely feel like I can barely function under 6 hrs of sleep. Under 5 hrs I've had mild hallucinations, hearing someone saying my name, and seeing something out of the corner of my eye.
@@omk573I have a whole album on my phone dedicated ONLY to pics of me, asleep in class, taken by other people (it’s all in good fun though, I love them)
@@omk573and I hope your friend is doing well.
Ai has ruined art
Absolutely
Agreed.
People need to learn to feed ai THEIR OWN ART STYLE. That way they’re using it AS AN AID like it’s supposed to be used.
@BugLivestreams Not at all. Work on your own art. I'm not a great artist myself but I sure as hell won't be using ai.
@@BugLivestreams alas only a few do that, and even then, it can only do as good as you already did at thr time of drawing, best use of AI is feeding it background drawings and photos you yourself took, as for backgrounds AI is shockingly good. But people, its not good at.
Ah yes!!! The perfect video to watch before going to sleep 😀
As someone who battles insomnia and other chronic sleep issues, this series hits hard
It's not really important or anything but the belief that you've "been uniquely chosen for some unknown punishment" is not a delusion of grandeur, but one of persecution. I really wish that when analog horror creators wrote things that are supposed to be clinical notes/observations and the like that they'd get the very basics correct.
Are you sure it wasn't intentional?
I think Master Chief did a great job in this series. I look forward to seeing him getting more, higher profile voice acting job offers soon.
I’m gonna be honest, I really wanted to get into this but I just couldn’t. There was too much AI - the voices, the imagery, it really ruined the immersion. If somebody doesn’t care enough to use real content, why would I?
Honestly voices would've been one thing, ppl use computer generated ones all the time, but the rest yeah I agree. Disappointed hes giving attention and clout to shit that uses AI rather than something that put effort into its art
@@ToyotaCorolla-en2mv agreed.
Good video, needs more views, will send to friends, keep up good work, keyword buzzword keyword, fear and hunger, Mandela catalogue, etc.
payment for therapy does not decline and I watch Mauthe Doog's videos again
FIRST: This reminds me so much of the Billy Joel song, River of Dreams!
I keep thinking this stems from something like the Philadelphia Experiment, since its origin is a shipyard/ocean. But that was in the 40s. So that would have to make the crew at least... 40, and certainly no women. And it's not near either port. But that would be cool. I think its people sacrificing to an incubus/succubus whose child is now expecting. The alien theory would explain the aging process, if they traveled through time and space theyd be much older. Idk it's a lot.
My main man, the dawg. Keep it up.
I'm Filipino, and it is called "Bangungot" in our language. It is true that people sometimes die in their sleep, without any warning. Healthy males just die suddenly. It is true, but the insomniac part and people dont sleep just to survive is the fiction part. 😂
[Danny Devito voice] "Bullshit. Bullshit. D e r i v a t i v e."
This series was so blah. Just meh. You did a good enough job recapping it, but good gravy this series was just wholly unimpressive.
Man being able to warp with my dreams would be heaven, i'd love this.
I think Dean's doctors just had regular involuntary insomnia. IUNDS kills vis extreme internal trauma to the nervous system followed by blood loss. It was possible to see that Dean had survived IUNDS without having to cut him open, and apparently he needed an emergency blood transfusion or several. His entire body was probably badly bruised and possibly partially crushed. He also mentioned that he was changed physically. I doubt he was a very pretty sight.
this is what playing F&H at 3AM does to a feller
It seems so cool i just wish there wasnt so much ai imagery in use
Wow and last night i had a manic episode where i belived i would die in my sleep thanks Mauthe :)
yw
Lmao
This is a really good video
As an insomniac, this series is fucking horrifying.
Thanks for the review, but this is a poor example of the genre. Crude, in-your-face, childishly written, no build, no atmosphere, nothing original, just bits of better analogue horror cobbled together.
Look to Greylock, Local58, Gemini, perhaps Darewho, expand your palate and raise your standards.
this is better than everything you mentioned tbh
Those are all very popular though (for a reason but still) and covered to death. I'll take something new even if it's not the best that exists.
@@MonSolum8543 You know that's a damn lie. None of those need shitty AI voice acting and footage to actually be interesting
@@josephdavis4682 that's ur opinion bud. i just think its better.
@@MonSolum8543 with all due respect, you really need to up your standards
This is the 1st analog horror where the visuals have really gotten me, the face at the start is HORRIFYING
Watching this before bed
Lowkey actually had good sleep just had dream about ghost attacking me lol
33:14 - Love a good Ecclesiastes reference
It really bothers me that they have used so much direct footage from Metropolis.
I've seen enough anime (Shiki) to know from first episode that these are vampires.
1:07:40 THE TRUTH?
hah. i fell asleep trying to watch this. very cool
uh oh
3:55 I'll be damned, it nearly got me. Kinda cheap jumpscare, but fun
This horror would be better with LESS VISUALS.
I tried watching this on Benadryl. Even the spiders were watching with me.
" ONCE I PRACTICED THE SACRIFICE WITH MY BLOOD BOWL, _I'M DOING WAY BETTER_ "
it'd be hilarious if this is the one member who actually isn't a part of all this insomnia stuff and is not at all touched by watchers-- he's genuinely just leading a healthier life through sheer psychopathy
Trick to deal with all the goofy faces: imagine them yelling "HURRRB DIRRR!" As soon as they pop up and try not to die from laughing.
amazing video
22:37 Super Mario RPG - It is the only one just for me
My goat💜
We need a Fear and Hunger analogue horror
Alr y’all say the pics weren’t scary but this is the genuinely the first time I’ve ever been scared by an arg. At around the 20 min mark I jumped and let out a small scream when I saw them lol
A collective vs one person. You're an outlier so it doesn't matter if you find it scary
@@base21 This isn’t stats lil bro
@@69hikikomori and this aint a college essay but you in here writing paragraphs about being a bitch
@@69hikikomori this ain't a whole paragraph talking about how you the only scared one here. Go back to watching coco melon or something
@@base21 It’s 2 sentences. Maybe Cocomelon would be better for you 🤣 or a retirement home with the all your base are belong to us meme
Anyone else feel like the faces have almost a pug like quality, especially the one in the thumbnail? The eyes are crosseyed outward, slightly bug eyed, the cheeks, i dont, but thats definitely what it reminds me of.
This is one of the more intellectually stimulating analog horrors I've come across. Delightful amounts of metaphor from real-world sources.
Are you being serious?
Yooo it was farting in my ear at the beginning😂😂
I can't watch this without the timestaps of the jumpscared 😭
This over reliance on using "AI" on everything and using the same stale, boring and derivative themes & tropes is getting old real fast!! There wasn't a single scary image anywhere, it was all corny AI warping that literally made me facepalm myself multiple times in utter amazement that someone thought it worked. Now the premise was interesting and different, but the execution was horrible it felt like every other AH that's come out post Mandela, Greylock, Vita Carnis etc.
holy shit new video
Ironic
I'm getting sleepy
Maybe watching this before going to sleep was a bad idea...
Self-induced sleep deprivation is a very bad idea. I did it for years working on artwork. It really harms your immune system. The type 2 diabetes I have now is probably thanks to that. As for someone dying in the middle of the night ...I have heard of that in real life. Not as an epidemic, but it happens.
that one dude sounds like a silent hill protagonist
32:01 And you may tell yourself, "This is not my beautiful house" And you may tell yourself, "This is not my beautiful wife"
Why do all analog horror "monsters" have to look the same. Its not scary just looks goofy
Placate is pronounced with a hard C, like a K, otherwise great video!🎉
the bits around 29:00 just feel like surreal shitposts
History: band of 10k heroes led by local yokek, bankrupt the nation to arm themselves, hold-out at a mountain pass to defeat a 100k invader and miraculously rout them before capturing their emperor
Eu4: lol I have 666 leader and clicked dev 20 times. I now conquered the world as ottoman in 1500ad
I agree
It is great to show lesser known analog horror. Some of them are hidden gems.
There's some absolutely fantastic series out there that don't get the attention they deserve!
I feel like if they really wanted everything to go the way they wanted they could literally just tech 1 very very very devoted and brainwashed follower and used the power of the dream to shape the reality they want by uses them
Maybe that's what they're trying with Luna or Samantha?
I don't think you can just turn into a mummy without special prep upon death
listening to this to fall asleep to
24:07
Okay.
I can't here this Voice without hearing Wendee Lee.
Maybe it's my imagination...
i have no lead you have not said after seeing this but just one question: if dreams are the reality we choose, then what would happen if everyone on earth was having the same controlled insomnia-dream?
If you're looking for more analog horror series that deserve more attention, then I have 3 series that I think you should check out:
1. Tryred Witness Archives
2. RICHLAND
3. Tbenett43
I guarantee you that these three are much better than most slop that you see in the analog horror genre.
thanks for the recs!
If it's sitting on you it's an incubus.
Been up for 5 days straight wasn’t planning on sleeping anytime soon Lol
