I hope you enjoyed this video about the demon inside lot 36. Guillermo del Toro's cabinet of curiosities on netflix was enjoyable to watch and like I said in the video, I might cover another episode from this anthology series eventually.
I am currently working on a video about dog soldiers and Being human TV series. I have been thinking about covering american horror story as well but always let me know what you want to see

If you’re taking a trip down HP Lovecraft’s works You’ll find it’s quite the rabbit hole
3 jumps before entering..3 jumps when leaving. Gives you the number 33. 33 is huge in occultism and free mason circles.
the people he owed money to are morons, breaking his window and threatening to kill him means they do not get there money back.
the original guy did the hop and such to keep darker thoughts away so the creature would not eat him.
There’s a 1970’s episode in the Night Gallery series called Pickman’s Model which was originally written by H.P. Lovecraft if you’re interested in checking it out ❤😮 Greetings from Boston, Massachusetts Amerikkka of course! I like Del Toro as well!
Dude sees a whole demon on the floor in a summoning circle and says "I don't believe in this stuff " and just walks right through it.
Lol... so true.
sounds like an average middle aged uncle
The most stupid part is not the whole '' I don't believe thing '' , but the fact there was a corpse, with a thing in it moving, over a pentagram. Even if he didn't believe anything, that was a crime scene. The whole writting of this particular episode on this character was just stupid.
Plus that Mexican woman, wanting to go into the lot 36 for whatever reason also made no fucking sense.It was left clear that the only owner was that German nazi family.
He said f this iam going for the book lol
300k is 300k
I agree that nick probably couldn't hear the whispers due to his hearing loss thus was unaffected. The whispers were likely to draw in people since the other guy seemed to sense something when he entered the unit with nick later
Good point, I never thought about his hearing loss affecting that!
I think it also carries a more symbolic message about Nick’s character, that being his greedy and self centered philosophy. Throughout the story, Nick is shown to be only interested in himself and completely fixated on resolving his own issues before addressing anything or anyone else. This manifests itself in Nick as a form of obliviousness to things or people that he believes are insignificant in regards to helping himself yet could pose a threat later on (for example he cared little for what the old man was carrying to the storage locker everyday, he ignored Emilia’s request to retrieve her familial items, took no mind that the locker had Nazi imagery and Occult objects, and above all took little interest in a decaying corpse harbored by a demon that was surrounded by a Pentagram). Although appearing odd at first, when you consider that Nick is only interested in what is to what could be gained for himself, it makes sense that he would ignore the foreboding signs and messages such as the whispering.
Good point
@@mycure0498 facts that’s also present in his victim mentality as demonstrated in his “it’s my turn” argument.
10:12 I love how Agatha confidently lies to Nick's face, as she states that books are not her province. All the while she is surrounded by shelves and shelves stacked full with thousands of books. But his eyes were only on the price. I think that's a really neat little detail. I really liked this episode a lot.
Pretty sure she meant those specific books are not what she is into.
I love how the ‘demon’ looks more like a Lovecraftian entity from another dimension than that of the usual trope design.
indeed iv always been a fan of cosmic and supernatural horror but most the good stories are a mix of both
@@lordsathariel4384 cosmic horror tends to be misused a lot. My personal favorite is John Carpenter's The Thing since its actually an alien whose ability and intelligence can't be comprehended. Can't immediately think of good examples of mixing supernatural with cosmic horror, since the supernatural is mostly anchored to earthly beliefs related to religions developed in our lifetime
@@EB_3693 try the dreamlands it mixes older pagan gods with lovcraftian gods its sort of inbetween true lovecraft cosmic and normal supernatural horror most the stories in the cthulhu mythos with elder gods in are mostly plainer supernatural beings coming into contact with lovecraftian cosmic horror's their are some pretty good one's out there if you look
@@EB_3693 Dreamcatcher was an okay one
I like the idea of them as eldritch beings; angels are already incomprehensible in actual lore, so why should demons be any different? Except whereas angels are aspects of incomprehensible beauty and grace, demons are… well _demons,_ avatars of foulness that corrupt everything around them just by existing in one spot for more than a second.
I found how unphased Nick was by the demon in the circle unbelievable. I totally checked out when he nonchalantly just walked by it. Even if he didn’t see the tentacles and only saw a rotting, faceless corpse in a demonic summoning circle, the fact that he didn’t even react was so dumb to me. I just couldn’t take this episode seriously at that point
He was blinded by greed at that point.
@@andrewfornes5320 anyone in desperate need of money like nick would immediately stop in shock upon seeing something as disturbing as what’s in the ritual room
@@ethancrenshaw3936
The camera panned over the body, revealing the writhing tentacles only once _WE_ as the audience could stare down its throat. From his angle, Nick could see the hole but not its contents. Furthermore, the body was the victim of a now-dead stranger he cared little for and he was under a great deal of pressure to not only satisfy his greed, but collect the $10,000 sufficient to pay his debts to the fellow who busted up his car and his forehead ASAP. As he saw it from the doorway, a greater prize just beyond to which his eyes were peeled, it was nothing but legal headaches and another's ancient, sordid business.
Had it NOT been possessed, I'm sure he would've gotten what he'd come for; close up the passageway, and forget the business entirely without having to notify the authorities, file an extensive police report (that might've entailed the repossession of his tome and an investigation into his less than above-board container dealings), and cost him the good graces of his associate that ran the place (i.e. "you bring the police into my business and you kiss your inside spot goodbye").
Regardless however, the enjoyment of fiction demands the suspension of disbelief and giving credit to characters who are not in possession of the knowledge _you_ as _the audience_ possess. Unlike us, fictional characters generally don't know they're in horror movies and it's all too human to distance one's self from the outlandish "things that go bump in the night" as mere figments of our imagination and that whatever _we_ see in horror movies could never happen to us. As far as he knows, he's got very little time to make a sh|tload of cash to cover his ass and make out like a bandit and another faceless corpse is little different from the mangled carcasses he no doubt stepped over and contributed to as a Vietname serviceman. _YOU_ would be disturbed but, to him, it's just another set of putrefying remains that's laying in his way.
Food for thought.
@James Pamson Thank you. This was great until that scene. Completely took me out of the story. It's like they dont care about logic and common sense anymore.
I agree
I understood Mrs Amelia hanging around the locker on that night as her wanting to break in and get her things - but she can't, cause Nick is there. Which places her conveniently at the site to deliver some Karma;]
Good point! I didn’t think of that
I just assumed she was stalking him to get revenge. Then fate dropped an opportunity in front of her.
Uh yeah I’m glad you were coherent during this lol.
@@MrDj232 She has to be messed up too. I mean it sucks someone got your stuff, legally. Though I don't think it condones killing someone...
@@ithikussssukihti406 she didn't kill him. She let wherever happens to to him happen. He was a bitter bastard who suffers form his own actions. That's karma.
AAAAND the dumbest move in cinematic horror history goes to Nick for walking straight through a demonic circle while there's plenty of room to walk around it
To be fair, he apparently seems to have hearing and sight problems
And being warned not to do so.
@decimusvitaei like how u said 'not very smart'. A polite way to say dumb
This was by far my Favorite episode of the series. I would have loved for it to be longer and for them to expound on everything in deeper detail.
I was trying to connect the episodes together till the 3rd episode.... But I enjoyed the season...
I liked the witch house as well
Yes fellow Lord, you are correct - the table was made with blood mixed in. It's how the old occultist knows that it is authentic and has the power imbued within to do real conjurings.
wouldn't it be cum if it was authentic? or is that more "New" wave occultism with Crowley? Don't believe me look it up, dude spawned multiple cults all through the idea that sex and juices from that stuff is what demons, angels spirits and entities all actually crave and are drawn too, blood being a more minor one.
I would guess that it's not 2003 but rather 1991. The president on his TV is George Bush Sr and he's talking about the first desert storm invasion of the middle east. The exact date is a bit blurry but on the bottom of the TV it says what looks to be 01-16-1991 which would be the time of the gulf war almost being over in February 1991
Yeah I was about to type, the exact same thing, you beat me to it lol. Cogan missed an obvious one there, without even reading the text, I immediately knew something was off, when I saw, who was actually on the TV. Because of the later, middle eastern wars, the general populace, rare remembers desert storm anymore, same with the Korean war, being overshadowed, by the Vietnam one.
Thanks for clarifying!
@@void4947 also the fact that it was really a short conflict/war where the US went in and dominated the Iraqi military with crazy fast tank formations and basically "owned " the night with very good state of the art night vision. To the point of an utter one sided domination in less than a year. Whereas the 2nd Iraq war was a horrible drawn out unwinnable war vs guerilla warfare. It went on for over a decade and followed 9-11 so it was just so much more memorable. It's crazy though how much Bush Sr actually looks like Bush Jr more like brothers than Father/Son.
@@coganLollins I just want to say I really enjoy your channel. The videos are really well made and loaded with great info. Especially the Underworld videos and True Blood. They are so full of lore and crazy creatures it's really hard to keep track. Your videos do a really great job of breaking everything down so I can easily make sense of it.
@@coreyhamby2989 thank you I appreciate it! 🙏
I like how in Watchmen, Nelson's character uses a similar storage locker/garage box as a low-budget Batcave to switch cars and change into his mask.
When I started watching this I was like “Damnit Guillermo, you got me interested in something again when I’m supposed to be doing something else.”
The three book names are a mix of latin and greek.
the latin part: "liber primus/secunda/tertius" = "first/second/third Book"
the greek part:
"Daemonia" from "δαίμονες" = "Demons"
"Symvolia" from "σύμβολα" = "Symbols"
not sure about "Perilipsi". But it sounds like "Περίληψη" which means "Summary".
Maybe they made a typo when putting the English words into the translation program and typed "summary" instead of "summoning" lol
I think the third book is about protection, not life. Vit is the prefix used in words associated with life, like vitae. Para, is usually associated with defense or readiness. Sounds like it’s about how to protect or ward yourself against demons/evil possibly.
Wild I wanna read them 😂😂
@@lashawn20000 Same, I love reading old and weird Latin books, that is if my Latin hasn’t become too rusty.
yeah, or possibly the preperations/readiness for asking favours of the demon, as we see the old man do some kind of ritual and bringing sacrifices daily, possibly to extend his own life? or to prevent the discovery of the demon or even to prevent his arrest if someone were to know?
@@youareaspook5897 That’s quite possible too
I really liked this episode as well. I would've liked a hair more explanation. Plus, it made me really want to know more of the back story. I get less is more sometimes but with this one, I'd like more lol.
And I'm down if you do other episodes.
Definitely the best episode of the series.
I think the hair might be from Holocaust victims.
I think Nick, smirking, shows Miss Amelia the broken lock, saying it was all that was left. He drops it in her hand and swaggers off screen, but later the audience sees the lock on the door Nick was trying to escape from would have worked much better.
If someone is paying me 300k I'mma listen to everything he says. If he think unicorn is real I'mma play along.
I don't think he had the demon in Germany because the newspapers are all American papers talking about the sister disappearing.
Yep, that's what also caused my attention. I guess he just brought the books from Germany, not the demon. Which doesn't mean that he couldn't have conjured another demon back there, of course. Maybe with another 4th book, or even the identical copy, which would then mean that one demon with an unfulfilled contract is still somewhere back in Europe 🤔.
But whatever, his sister only vanished after the family had arrived in America.
I guess that the rabbit feeding and the hopping was some kind of portrayal of "innocence", since rabbits are commonly associated with it, and the vessel being a woman, Dottie, possibly a virgin, could also be a sign of "innocence" too, since there was a picture of a demon bleeding a child, the feeding on innocence and "darkness" must be what maintain the demon alive.
the animals in the beginning were definitely not rabbits though. The head dropping on the floor clearly had fangs and an overall carnivorous set of teeth. I think it's more likely cats.
From "Curiosity kills cats" to "Greed bypasses curiosity can struck traps".
You know, if Roland really didn't want Nick to mess around, he could've just said "Hey if you touch anything, I'm not giving you the money."
It would work, too, given Nicks greed. I've always wondered that.
As far as the candelabra is concerned; “collected from a very particular source a little bit at a time.” I’m almost certain this is probably implying gold teeth harvested from jewish captives sent to concentration camps.
German efficiency! 👍
Waste not! Want not! 😏
That was my first thought. But then I realized that the candelabra would therefore consist of about a pound of dental gold, which would make it worth more than the $12000 debt he owes on its own.. Also it looks much more like brass than gold. I'm going with the melted holy object theory.
@@marcusmoonstein242
Nothing "holy" about the menorahs, Kiddush Cups, mezuzahs, and other relics of a fallen people who abandoned their God and His Son for the empty teachings of Rabbinical tradition any more than there is in the pagan artifacts of bloody and begone barbarians. Notice that it did little to save Sebastian Roché's occultist character, Roland, when the demon ignominiously swallowed him.
Other than that, I'm more inclined to believe _this_ theory than that of the gold tooth fillings, which had substantially more utility in either extraction, concentration, and trade to pragmatically sustain The War Effort *AND/OR* for the arcane, calculative research of the Ahnenerbe-Abteilung, SS (specifically their own, internal _Abteilung Numerische Analyse_ or "Numerical Analysis Department"), where theretofore copper circuitry was replaced and soldered with the gold of plundered teeth in the stolen and reassembled Zuse-2 computer and reverse engineered replicas which secretly coordinated and consolidated the pneumo-informational energy collection at the camps for the necromantically-ambitious but unfulfilled "𝕻𝖗𝖔𝖏𝖊𝖐𝖙 𝕵ö𝖙𝖚𝖓𝖍𝖊𝖎𝖒".
Either way, this was a great episode and tiresome as the trope of occult Nazis doing evil shit for shits'n'giggles has become, I loved it. The rest of the series though, while making welcome references to Lovecraftian cosmology, kinda dropped the ball when it came to delivery. Better than nothing, I suppose but, it seemed disappointing in execution...especially for something overseen by Lovecraft aficionado, Guillermo del Toro.
Technically if he had helped the lady she would never had been there that night anyway since she wanted to get her stuff that morning. So he still would have been stuck in there since apparently someone needs to open the door from the outside.
Lot 36
Three six
Three sixes?
Might have passed on bidding for that lot...
I saw a bad man write the number 3 one time. Coincidence?
Does no one else think Roland was the one asked to summon the demon? It's clear that he is knowledgeable of the occult and even confesses to being far more familiar with the Wolmar family than he initially lells on. A purveyor is a dealer. If he's not the dealer of this deal, why burst into flames? This act is not random as Nick could have been instead the one to combust if the deal was only about A soul, not the purveyor's. 🔥🔥
You're so good at this. Thanks for the content. Beautiful editing
So, here's some creepy coincidence for folks (trust me, it ties in to Lot 36) : the actor portraying Roland (Sebastian Roché) also starred alongside Heath Ledger and Vera Farmiga (whom he was once married to) in the T.V. Series ROAR, portraying the Roman Centurion (Gaius Cassius Longinus) who pierced Jesus with a spear and was cursed with immortality until the Final Judgement. Believing that the Spear (long since lost to him) is the only weapon with the power to end his life (because it was powerful enough to kill a god, after all), he eventually tracks it down hidden somewhere in Ireland. In the episode "Spear of Destiny", he finds it, and though it is shown to give the one in possession of it the ability to bring death or life into the world depending on the individual, he finds that the Spear ultimately still answers to the Will of the one who cursed him and Longinus is not allowed release from his debt.
Do you know who else fervently searched for Longinus' Spear (aka The Spear of Destiny)? Adolf H*tler. In fact there is a book by the metaphysical historian, Trevor Ravenscroft, titled "The Spear of Destiny" which I highly recommend that details H*tler's obsession with the occult and postulates that his rise to power has everything to do with him having acquired the Spear of Destiny and his downfall was the result of him losing possession of the Spear.
For even more weird, here's a bonus: Sebastian Roché also portrayed the angel Balthazar on the T.V. Series SUPERNATURAL and the character had The Spear of Destiny in his arsenal of Heavenly weaponry. In the Christian tradition, Balthazar (magus aka King of Macedonia) wasn't an angel, but one of the three magi who gave gifts to an infant Jesus. Balthazar is the Patron Saint of **drum roll please** GERMANY. 😉
P.S. the symbolism of the rabbit/hare is quite rich and can be found as far back as the first human civilization in ancient Mesopotamia. It's most common symbolism is in relation to the Underworld, death, and fertility. The constellation Lepus (Latin for hate/rabbit) is what comes to mind with this episode. In Jewish lore, he constellation Lepus was associated with "the sinner collection sticks on the Sabbath" and as "Cain being chased out of the garden of Eden" after murdering his brother. Honestly, the rabbit symbolism in the episode is likely drawing on numerous sources, but I believe Lilith is the main inspiration behind the demon.
Wow you should start a channel. Love that kind of stuff.
These are very tenuous connections at best
@@Hughjaoses8766😂 that's an understatement
@@Hughjaoses8766 nonetheless fascinating. Definitely added some more yarn to my loom if you know what I mean
Yeah, Rabbits have the same relation with the moon and the underworld in Mesoamerican culture like Ancient Mayans.
The hopping might be a way of cloaking the entity. The cloak was lifted after the owner of lot 36 died. So, when Nick entered the locker he immediately noticed that the size was unusual, as he mentioned he knew the sizes of the lockers.
I just thought it was because he was a weirdo.
I took the hopping as a traditional Kabbalah ritual of making rhythmic noise to "alert" the spirits you were approaching... because if they get startled bad things happen. Sign of respect.
@@bunnyblackwell6107 Can't you just knock?
@Bas Yas So are those other spirits just waiting in limbo?
@@richpryor9650 You could, but then you'd just be a crazy old guy instead of a dangerously spooky crazy old guy.
The small animal getting butchered in the beginning is a cat by the look of the skull.
Personally the demon kind of reminded me more of Shub-Niggurath since it tend to be depicted as a mass of tentacles attached to some legs, while Cthulhu is more like a humanoid with a octopus head like Davy Jones in Pirates Of The Caribbean.
Really liked this episode but the whole series is just a stroke of genius!^^
I thought it was a skunk.
@@psychodboy1511 Its not impossible, might be easier to get a skunk skull!
But I'm pretty sure it cats the guys chops up atleast story wise to feed the demon, he seem like the type of person that would pick of an animal that in most cases would walk up to you rather than a feral stink bomb that would run away, it also makes sence because of the dudes age and general demeanor of not leaving his house alot😅
Hey Cogan, I just remembered I good and underrated/not well known series you could explore for monsters. I can't remember how long it was on but I believe it was a History Channel original series called: "The Librarian." It had Noah Wylde? I believe as the protagonist and the show focused on finding occult artifact like the Holy Grail. I believe I vaguely remember him fighting a vampire in an episode as well.
There are 3 Librarian movies starring Noah Wylie and a spin off TV series with an ensemble cast. The third movie, Search For The Judas Chalice, is the one with vampires.
@@MrDj232 Ah! I knew I was possibly remembering some things poorly but much Obliged for the correction friend!
I was quite young when I watched those movies on TV. Pardon Me for the incorrect information.
You really took effort slowly going through this episode. Well done
Honestly why this was the opener of the series and it was the best one Like no other episode came close to how badass this one was.
I'm excited to see new episodes! del toro is a genius!
Love your reviews. You deserve more subs.😍
Buster Scruggs gets into some wild shit.
Great episode from you as well as the COC
The three hops are a signification of the father, the son, and the Holy Ghost.
Hippitus hoppitus let me in your propotus
this was one of the best episodes of the series
Nice name
The second to last episode was my favorite
Roland was Dottie's husband and had been searching for her, he escaped from being the payment forthe demon when the demon was summoned thereby betraying the demon trapping it in this world.Her brother wanted her for himself and when she married Roland he offered her to the demon and Roland as the payment in his rage. That's why the book burst into flames when Roland was taken. That's why when describing the man Roland spoke of him in such hatred and inside the unit and hallway he keeps saying where are you Dottie. Everyone wonders why he lived in squalor if he controlled a demon and it's because he desired sins of the flesh his sister's flesh,and while bound the demon could take her shape and fill all of his desires.
That was great explanation, thank you!
thats whole incest take is stupid, it could be anything else. simply he hated roland
@@dr.palsonp.h.d815 sick yes. But how is it stupid if it what actually tells the truth of the characters motivations? The very reasons you had the privilege to look upon such a strange and horrific story at all? The twisted-ness of it is a sensible ingredient in the unfolding of such madness
just here to say that it's great seeing Tim Nelson getting more work. he's been a favorite of mine since Oh Brother
This was a great story, it would have made an epic movie in itself, but, all of the unexplained things within allow the audience to draw their own conclusions about not only the story line but the people in the story too. I really like stories like these. Gets the brain working.
imo this is the one that should be turned into a movie.
I thought Storage Wars was a boring show, but in this season they've really found something cool.
Definitely one of my favourite episodes of the series. And I was wondering what that hair thing was
Loved it!
This was actually my favourite episode followed by the rat one
Loved the Rat episode.
The whole point of this genre of horror is that it leaves you with tons of questions that will never be answered and that is part of it's beauty.
Yes. It's a simple story that works on magical logic - answers are necessary to enjoy it. I don't need to know why the man was hopping - it was unsettling and made the viewers curious to know what's in the unit, and that's what it was supposed to do.
He was hopping, like a rabbit to feed it rabbits. The demon was looking/listening for whatever approached the door.
Can you do The Autopsy as well, i think it's episode 2, it's a very good twist on the vampire mythology and right down your alley
The hopping was how he got in and out of the room without breaking any of the circles trapping the demon.
I only clicked on this video to post this question: how on earth does this straight forward story need an explanation??!!
It reminds me of Hastur the Yellow god from HPL
If reminds me of Nyarlathotep too!! Even though it seemed more animal like compared to him.
There could be another more likely source for that gold: the fillings and jewelry stolen from the victims in the Concentration Camps.
I don’t think the demon “ate” the main character. I think it took him as a new vessel since the last one was effectively dead/dying.
love your videos
I think she was there to show how truly dark and miserable he was
That Agatha lady looks like how the Agatha from the MCU shouldve looked like. 😂
4:38 reminds me of Tesla he walked around a building 3 times
Nick’s jacket says he’s a private and if he fought in a war and got out as a private, he clearly wasn’t a very good soldier.
I love your videos!!!!!! 😊
The intro with Del Toro kinda reminds me of the old Spawn animated show.
It always made me think of Johnathan Frakes in Beyond Belief: Fact or Fiction. The delivery is so similar I wondered if Del Toro was mimicking him intentionally.
@@MrDj232 possibly. I just thought about the old animated show. 🤷
Same!!!
So this guy is broke and divorced, 12k in debt to gangsters, and yet is driving around in a perfect condition classic C10 pickup? That's a $20k truck, easy. Sell the truck, story over.
not super relevant, but quite certain it was a raccoon he was cutting up in the beginning (rabbits don't have canines)
Oppossum I reckon. I have a raccoon and the cranium isn't the same. Related though :)
I had assumed it was a cat.
Very good and thorough explanation!
I think you got your George Bushes mixed up. That's Dad talking about Desert Storm. Timing still doesn't make a lot of sense; Nick's already back as a veteran? His tour of duty must've a few minutes
Or he was in Vietnam. He is the right age for that if it is 1991.
@@rnash999 he was born in '64, but I guess he could've been playing an older character
The date on the TV was Jan 1991. The gulf war ended a month later. It was a very short war it lasted less than a year. He could have been in the military for longer and was already in when the Persian gulf war started. Also he may have been injured or wounded and then discharged to go home.
@@coreyhamby2989 I've known lots of young men that came back from that conflict, and they acted nothing like that. He must've just been a major assh*loe before he left. Still no correlation between 2003 and G.H.W. Bush. We would have up to our necks in a new Iraq/Afghan conflict. Also, Desert Shield Became Desert Storm, so maybe he was there from the very beginning. Maybe he just wasn't cut out for the service?
Nick was told not to touch anything or speak but Ron did it anyway.
It is a great series. I really hope that they do another season.
I really like your channel, I've have investigated Vampires and Werewolves, and other cryptids, but I haven't done so much in media so its nice to have a different view of how things are. Since its unknown
I think the deal with the demon was to kill Roland and that's why the book burned when he got killed because that was the demons original deal
The demon looks more like a Lovecraftian creature..and Nick's demise is so satisfying to watch...
you say about how bad he is but not about how others have treated him
Liber Tertius "Pair O' Lips, SEE?" "Third Book of Double Smoochers?
so, before entering, he acts like a bunny, with the hopping, and feeds bunnies to the demon. maybe it's related. I can't figure out why he would do the same when he leaves though.
or how he made the secret area to store the demon.
but it's a good story from what I saw.
The part I find a little odd is where he says the book would burn down completely with "the purveyor" of its favors. Shouldn't it be "the receiver"?
As a retired vet who also suffers from complete deafness and chronic tinnitus in my left ear, I assure you it's absolutely hell on earth. For years i wanted to end it all, and luckily I'm one of the few who was able to achieve some form of decent habituation. Still i sympathize with this character..
You should do the whole series (plz).
I really dislike how unfazed the dude was at the sight that could at least been the the place of a sacrifice of the potentially sister of the previous owner, dude went for the book like he seen that shit everyday.
Fantastic. This series was great. I really liked pickman’s model
I feel like the hopping was the old guy couldnt see well but memorized the circle pattern and hops around to feed the demon, while avoiding the circle pattern
Yeah, I want more of these videos.
Del Toro is both a fan and friend of Stephen King, who helped make Creepshow and as this show is very much setup inspired by Creepshow,which also would be be still relevant as it was made in the mid 80s and this episode was set in 92, as the George bush speech from the start of Desert Storm.
Sorry, I'm old this was my generations playground 😂😂.
Great breakdown❤ new sub
"The spear of destiny" is another book about all this. It's how I learned of Nazi occultism.
I also think that the candle was a little clue once again to nazi germany. I can see it being holy objects being melted, however I also think it’s more sinister than that. Chances are the line “bit by bit” was in reference to POWs in concertation camps who had their gold teeth ripped out. Quite sad, but it lines up with the rest of the info in the episode
I think the candelabra was made by collecting gold from human blood, since there is trace amounts, and it would be collected in certain ways
Quick google search told me a 70kg human has about 0.2 milligram of gold. If that candelabra was 2kg, you would need to process a million people. I find that theory unlikely
The demon is right in front of the guy and the guy just said 'Fuck it I'm going in'. lol
You know this was my favorite one and pannos 's the viewing was fantastic too
Given the state of the place that the old guy lived in, i took it that he’d got what he wanted from the deal with the demon but lost it all. And that he was feeding it to just maintain it and to stop it getting its part of the deal, which would kill the old guy. That basically the old guy was living in a repetitive limbo that he can’t leave or the demon would somehow escape and feed on him
24:28 I suspect Karma is very painful when you deliberately turn your back on someone. You have to always reach out with kindness and help each other. One should never twist their responsibility to help the poor and destitute with a twisted narrative that seeks to glorify their pain as if the poor and destitute deserved it. Don't let evil conquer you, Bless them which persecute you: bless, and curse not.
If your enemy is hungry, give him food to eat; if he is thirsty, give him water to drink. In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head, and the LORD will reward you. Proverbs 25:21-22

I'm not a big fun a horror movies but I like your explanation of horror movies.
You should do more videos on other movie tv and possibly book monsters
The noise the demon tentacles make🤢
This was very interesting love horror fiction
I don't think Roland was Dottie's lover or was connected to the Wolmar's in any sort of way. Whenever he looked at Dottie's pictures or anything concerning the Wolmars, his expression was more of fascination than longing. Plus, when he finally saw Dottie, he called her by her name, not by endearment which lovers very commonly do. I think he really was just very fascinated with the occult just from the way he admired the seance tables, the books, the candelabra, the crosses along the way, and especially the demon. Plus, since he was obviously german like the Wolmars, he probably was obsessed about their story back when he was younger and that's why he knew alot about them. He very clearly stated he knew alot about them, not "I knew Mr. Wolmar and Ms. Dottie" specifically.
Nice. Ye the lover angle seems a stretch mainly for the reasons you mentioned.
Then why did the 4th book burst into flames when Roland died?
@@kaetispannbauer9082 might have something to do with Mr. Wolmar's contract with the demon. The contract must have been that Mr. Wolmar must be the one to give the demon offerings. Roland was neither an offering nor was he sent by Mr. Wolmar, so it would make sense why the book burned at that moment.
i loved all epesodes
Here's the explanation as to why the old man would hop before entering the lot:
He fed the chopped up rabbits to the demon by pouring them into the hole where the face of the corpse used to be. To get to the corpse he would have to hop across the double ring around the pentagram without disturbing it. That's why he would practice hopping every time before he entered the lot. And there wasn't enough space inside to practice hopping there.
love it
do you know if you'll do more form this series?
Lol watched it already only stopped by for title 😂😂
