    43:00 I think this is less a reference to folklore and more to the Holiday Illness. Basically any time theres a major holiday with big gatherings, the chance of giving, spreading, or getting sick goes up. Making a natural phenomenon into something caused by strange creatures is something this game does well, so I wouldnt be surprised if the reference is that simple.

    • @casanovafunkenstein5090
      @casanovafunkenstein5090 Місяць тому +29

      @@writer4life724 I think there's also the aspect of Christmas being the only time you see a lot of the people there, so you could go your entire life never interacting with them outside of that brief period where you share a house each year, meaning you'd never know the difference if they were an elf.
      It's a very human thing to rationalise that a person you don't recognise at a party must know someone else there. The whole gathering would probably know that the person is a stranger, but nobody would want to bring it up in case they made a fool of themselves.

"It entered a man's body with a single wound, like a javelin, then opened into thirty barbs. Only by cutting away the flesh could it be taken from that man's body.".. "coursing through the highways and byways of his body so that every single joint filled with barbs."

      SERIOUSLY
      I adore this video, I love the world of Home Safety Hotline, it’s absolutely fascinating, but HOLY MOLY some of these new hazards ARE SO. SCARY.
      Perchta was the first to truly freak me out, she’s just so unsettling and cruel, though that’s partly because of 1: the uncanny valley and 2: I would… definitely be a target of her. Mental+physical illness tends to make it hard to clean, and while it’s certainly possible to get help, well, mental disorders.. they’re called disorders for a reason, it’s hard to think logically that someone would be willing to help you when you can barely help yourself.
      But rewatching the video, I have a newfound understanding and terror about The Hunt. I didn’t quite grasp it last time I watched it, BUT YIKES!!!! It’s… really sad, too. From that one call of the aftermath, it’s clear that The Hunt is a force of cruel, cruel nature, capable of wiping out entire communities with very few survivors, and even after, those survivors have to face their former neighbors as Wights, probably resulting in even more deaths. You think it’s just a heavy snowstorm, but nothing remains in the morning. The audio of the Wight’s cough is so unsettling, they managed to make the sound so human and so.. wrong. I feel bad for the towns that are hit with no warning :(
      Thank you for letting me ramble, I have one concept to consider: when they target someone, do you think the Mountain Warlocks are doing a silly little dance while they chant? I literally can’t see them doing anything else during their chanting, they’re all dancing silly

    28:24 the sugar wisp might be a reference to the sugar plum fairy with their fae-like elements, but I think between the ‘sugar plum’ scent and the ‘dreams of dancing orbs’ it’s a clear reference to famous poem ‘A Visit from St. Nickolas’ also known as ‘The Night Before Christmas’. Specifically, the passage “The children were nestled all snug in their beds;
    While visions of sugar-plums danced in their heads”

    2:06:38 With Disco Elysium mentioned, Righty and Wrongy kinda remind me of how the skills work in that game.
    If I had to rename them as skills in D.E., Righty would be "Perfectionism" and Wrongy would be "Trial & Error".

    Mixing Winter Cheer and Spooky just goes so well together. Like Peanut Butter and Chocolate. Or a house gnome and a dish of milk you leave for him to drink over the night so he's nice and happy and willing to fix your shoes for you. I hope this trend continues, and not just because I want Halloween and Christmas turned into one giant mega holiday that lasts three festively scary months.

    I like that as I started watching, you’ve been trying some new things video editing wise, throwing out some stuff you didn’t like, keeping some stuff you did or upgrading. You just work hard on your stuff.
    I don’t think people say this enough. I’m really proud of you for working this hard on something you love, even though sometimes it’s frustrating and it makes you hate it temporarily. You should be proud of yourself. Take some time to do that.

    In Sweden, “Lucy” is Saint Lucia (Loo-see-yah) and it is a tradition where a daughter will wake up her family with fresh pastries and song while in the traditional Lucia robe. It takes place on the 13th of December and churches will have Lucia choirs, and they sing the traditional Yule songs. At least, that’s true for Sweden, I don’t know much about the other countries. Lucia is a very benevolent figure, the whole idea is to bring light and cheer to the family. Personally it’s my favorite tradition

      @@redwiltshire1816 while Kenku are originally based on the Japanese Tengu, they've been apart of D&D since the 80's I believe, and I'm pretty sure the creator of HSH is a D&D fan. Regardless, crows and ravens are known for their mimicry of human voices, so perhaps the carolers are just a general reference to that, as well as how they're often considered a bad omen

    I was so hyped when I saw this!!! I was hoping you would cover the DLC. The next videos sound super intriguing because I really don’t know much about either of those pieces of media so I’ll be excited to see what you come up with!!
    On another note, I recently watched some people playing the game Mouthwashing, and that game struck me as right up your alley because of how many things could be dissected and theorized about from it, since there are a lot of metaphorical sequences taking places within a character’s mind/psyche. It’s a very dark game though, so I understand if you might be hesitant to cover it

    The original Lussi tradition still exists in almost the exact same manner in Sweden called Saint Lucia day. A girl is picked to be Saint Lucia, she dresses the exact same way with the lit candle wreath and all, and she goes through the streets holding a candle to light the way as saffron bread is passed out. It is practically the same in every way almost, I'm surprised it wasn't mentioned!
    My grandma's family is Swedish, and we used to do the tradition when my sister and I were the right ages still. I think it's like the youngest girl who is at least 8 or something, it's been a long time since then. 😂
