- Living in an isolated cabin during winter sounds quite comfy. Until you get an unexpected visitor, that is.

(Late) Happy Holidays and (late) Happy New Year! 😅
This video was long overdue and I'm glad it's finally out! Original videos are always a challenge for me, especially when it comes to pacing and all that. I initially planned it for early to mid January but unfortunately my computer broke for about a week while working on it and I lost around 3 minutes of animation that I had to remake from scratch, which set me back quite a bit. Either way, I hope it was worth the wait!
Cool
Thank you for the upload!!!
Amazing video as usual, love your stuff
Do you know what surkee means on finnish
lel
Not many times do you see a character in horror who actually fights back with a gun.
aside from games of course
OBJECTIVE: KILL
@@bennnoboyo5238 or movies.
@MC CRAFTER shoot first, ask questions later
"Get the fuck out of my house bitch"
Best SFM creator by a long shot, every video absolutely delivers. You deserve so much more.
ong these are top teir
Thank you! :)
You can tell an animation is good when you find yourself watching it at 5am before it's light outside and it gives off a primordial creep factor that makes you keep only the bottom half of the video on your screen as you prepare to dive into the safer trenches of the comments section.
i watched this at 5am too!! what a coincidence
Top*
4 am ngl it gives me the creeps
Yes
ohhh i'm so glad that's not just a me thing
This is the type of videos I adore. No narration, no jumpscares, no silliness. Just letting the horror speak for itself. Also I'd have preferred it if you waited a bit longer before showing the monster.
I love videos without jumpscares it makes it so much more surreal but I do like the main character having a voice
ok but what did the horror actually say? monster touch head fall down go boom?
11:13 this scene. the way it walks is so surreal and disturbing, and the added shadow of snow that covers it is really nice. the added detail of him having to rack a bullet since he never did that after his first shot is great.
13:13 *THIS SCENE.* the near silence, the final reveal of the monster's sheer size, the silhouettes, his horrified face, it's all so good
I'm happy to hear those scenes were as impactful as I tried to make them!
@@Surkee Haha, I kept whispering to myself, “Keep the gun ready!”
I agree, I love the ending. The way how the other guy doesn't even say anything, just points behind him. The silence is what really help sell it imo
@@Surkeehate to ask but the story really confuses me may you help and explain
@Surkee could you pls explain the story?
I love the long shots where you’re left to look at whether there’s something in the background. Although I didn’t notice anything, seeing how the thing looked, I’m left to wander if it was creeping among the trees.
Little shit like him scooting the bucket over with his foot to put the logs in is why I love your animation so much. Small human detail like that really sell it so well.
the absolute great detail of him shooting a round, then forgetting to rechamber until he tries to shoot again, is outstanding
I can't tell if this guy is just going insane or if this is really happening, and I love it
I'd say really happening, I haven't even watched the video but all of this other guys animations have it REALLY happen.
Like a time-loop, infinitely waiting, ETC.
7:55 - 9:13
With the wide angles, the windows in shot, you expect something to pop up, especially when he lowers his rifle. when NOTHING happens, the tension is maintained in a bone-chilling air until the music starts. You breathe a sigh of relief. THEN, IT POPS UP. You never get a good look at it. Fucking art.
Creepy af. However, even if you run out of bullets you never drop your gun. You may always use it to melee someone.
Also, what does this story represent? I wonder...
maybe panic attacks/unreasonable fear?
here, the monsters don't actually do anything. the tall guy probably doesn't attack our protagonist, and the little pat they did... maybe it was just a pat and the protagonist just passed out/ died from fear?
@@hanscatzer3rd294
*head pat*
*ambatukam.jpg*
*fucking dies*
Guilt the other person had a hole in its head implying that he may have shot him in the head
He couldn’t escape from the man ether so he couldn’t escape his guilt
i've got such a big post-apocalyptic vibe that i want a whole series about this
The lack of music and talking, just ambience. This is definitely a masterpiece that is better than anything I have ever seen in the SFM world before.
LETS GOOO NEW VIDEO
Awesome seeing your channel growing man, work like this really shows how talented you are.
Been saying it since your first horror SFM, great stuff and keep it up man :)
I'll do my best 💪
This was SO worth the wait and then some! I love winter stories and this one.. is just so perfect. It's so clear how good you've gotten at animating, I'm so impressed, this was an amazing watch. My theorist brain is going with this. Did he kill the guy in the blue coat? Hence why the note asks if he's been a good boy? So seeing him again isn't just seeing him as a monster but him facing the living representation of his guilt and what he'd done? That's the vibes I got. The continuous shots to the axe and the gun he has, the fact that one of the monsters looks like another person. it all radiates vibes that our protagonist did something
how long do these take to make you? they are definitely the best horror animation's i've ever seen and easily better than the hollywood nonsense these days
Thank you! This one took me around 3 months, though I also had some significant technical issues along the way.
We went from high rated movies to something as low quality as a 1900s film that couldn't actually do a lot with quality.
Except now it's possible to do 4k quality or 8k, and we have color and sound now.
sad to see that this one didnt get as many views. it deserved way more
It was just put up 3 days ago.
@@troy2000me yeah thats fair
still 3 months and not much views as it deserves
Amazing! The subtle off-ness of the first creatures "Hello." and the second's movements, the fantastic atmosphere and sound design, the lack of jumpscares and the fact you put in the effort of having snow ACTUALLY ACCUMULATE ON HIS HAIR AND CLOTHES!
Another great well sound designed animation dude! Love the lighting effects, realistic sounds and creepy atmosphere!
Thanks man!
I have a theory!
I think the main character is a murderer!
When that piece of paper said, “Have you been a good boy?” It gave us a shot of the axe,
I believe that he killed someone with the axe! He even looked at the axe, showing us he knows what it’s talking about!
And the man with half his face cute off is most likely the ghost of the guy he killed!
So when that tall thing touched our main character, the guy fell down, maybe symbolizing his soul is at piece because his killer has been caught!
That’s my theory anyway!
No matter how far off this was from winter, it's still a wonderful SFM video, the cinematography, the ambient sounds, the atmosphere and the animation itself! i loved how has a different model for being covered in snow, and the guy's expressions and mannerisms are so well communicated, i feel like if you used more hi-res detailed models and textures, this could passs off as realistic.
It’s still winter 💀
@@NicolasRamirez12417 i live in the southern hemisphere
I live on the equator so I only know summer
So good to see another upload. Hope things are going awesome. That was damn amazing. Awesome work!! Pacing was crazy good and I didn't know what to expect at every turn
9:10 "!!! Clever girl....."
*Jurassic Park theme intensifies*
Bro really had a kar98k under his bed
RESPECT
Das Ding hat einen Vorgeschmack auf deutsche Ingenieurskunst bekommen.
Moral of the story: Don't live alone in the middle of nowhere.
Average day in canada:
I Wish he had survived, the first horror protagonist which actually thinks and knows how to use a gun
I wonder if he'll ever do a half life horror, metrocops discovering that paranormal things exist or something
@@coooolduude not saying they would, but it would be an interesting take on how they would deal with it
Like the ending to Civil Protection, by Accused Farms?
@@wizardwhen eh a little bit, maybe more on the horror side of dialogue like he did for the "strangest security tape" and "glenmont metro"
I can see a scenario of civil workers from hla being sent as a hazmat crew to investigate an infestation outbreak and comfirm theres something down there which they then send out a squad of cps which would take a turn after never finding any xenian life forms
Something like this
0:21 - that's more Japanese books than I've come to expect in stories/channels/videos such as this!
Awesome as always, glad I subscribed, looking forward to more!
immaculate. it's so nice. my favorite thing was how the hand clumsily fumbled on the door for a second
To me it seems like the version of him that chased him was just trying to warn him…
mans got a fuckin mauser under his bed lmao. If only we were all so lucky.
i farted and a poopy came out
edit: thanks for all the likes!!!
edit 2: oh god it reeks, i think im gonna die it stinks so bad
edit 3: i died
ew its wet!
and stinky!!!!!
this yo average day in Colorado 💀
Merry febmas
wtf i was watching youtube on console and saw you posted new video so i went on pc to listen this while playing and there was video called basement stairs and now i cant find it even thought IT WAS BETWEEN METRO VIDEO AND THIS ONE
EDIT:nvm it was just a short didnt know that surkee makes shorts
His Existence Has a purpose Of Life But who Thinks Could Face the Mann
The dude just has a Kar98K?
what the Hell??
and he just drops it when it's empty? the fuck?
God damn, your understanding of cinematography and how to build tension is insane, absolutely fantastic work!
I didn't know Slenderman had a cousin
dont you hate when the christmas spirit of the skinny black guy steals your house and throws you on a infinite road with the christmas spirit of the broken glass guy and then steals your life? happens to me every christmas
Reminds me of this quote I forgot where I heard it tho
You will run
I will walk
You will stop
I will not
Can somebody explain the ending to me like I'm four? :D
finally, new video!
Just noticed the protagonist is a high resolution Male_Cheaple
I’m feeling pretty damn sick rn so this lightens up my day by alot!
Guy has k98k in his home probally a collectionist
woah, the attention to detail, lighting and that great sound design, your animations are truly a work of art
я думаю смысл заключается в том что главный герой с винтовкой убил какого то мужика и скрылся от полиции
этот монстр олицетворяет совесть, или карму
кароче это как бы месть ему
immediant like as soon as i saw this, this dude single handedly bringing back my childhood/early teenage years
i love this. i don't have anything new to say about it but i love this
Something wicked this way comes...
Always have a smile on my face as soon as i see a new SFM from Surkee.
I hope you never stop making this incredible content. Each animation is just better and better. Luv ya.
Bro casually has a Kar98k for home defense.
13:12 mf looks like those long thin sausages you can buy in the store
Was.. was he wearing shoes in his sleep?!??
*Oh god..*

I wrote an almost exact mirror of this story for my college newspaper and got paid $100 for it. Flt good but I knew so many people before me and after me had crafted it. Congrats though you did it best
Could you share the story? I'm genuinely curious and would like to read it 😁
@@mavmemes5341 its lost because this was over a decade ago - but the gist of it was Santa was a greaseball biker type with a red leather jacket. He kept deformed midgets (elves) chained up in a warehouse to make his presents. The climax of the story was a kid waking up to Santa breaking his front door open with a crowbar and rushing into his living room. The punchline was Santa pelting the kid square in the face with a small but heavy present, shouting “Merry Christmas!!” and running back outside to screech into the night on a Harley
@@metafication Okay that was pretty interesting to read, thank you!
I said once I'll say it again, this is my favorite sfm creepypasta channel, don't know why I hadn't subscribed to you yet.
Your animations keep getting better and creepier
No attention to detail when firing the Garand? Kinda sad
That's just the lump of coal Santa sent.
This is absolutely one of my favourite unsettling SFM, it's perfectly animated and the story is so creepy. Absolutely fantastic!
This was awesome. Truly one of the most creepy sfms i have seen. good job bro. the animations were awesome aswell. You just gained a sub.
this gave me feeling of dread like in a silent hill game
isolated cabin? I saw like 4 or 5 others. Also what even is happening like it wasn't a bad little movie but I wish it had done a little more exposition
Interpretation
8:05 we need a creepypasta on the moving tree
jesse pinkman after moving to alaska
I believe the first time he shot it was his neighbor
He was too calm for what the fuck was happening
Such effort and work. Great job dude.
Man you must work hard for these videos and what to only get 80k subs?
Let's not let this mans talent get wasted.
Im glad to see you're still making content, your SFM animations are great
I LOVE YOUR LITTLE VIDSSSSSS
Just discovered this channel and have been binging your videos. These are awesome
WOoOOo NEW VIDEO????????
Amazing as always!! Please do an SCP video!
The animations were AMAZING!! As well as the shots!! Great job!
Glad you're still doing videos after so long. Yours are the best :)
I can't tell if I'm a fan of this animation or not because it's awesome and I really like the animations, the horror element but I don't really get what's going on here. I guess someone could make a theory video or something to explain this lol
i think the monster was a stand in for being frozen to death, as in the very real an immenent threat the cold poses in the heart of winter to those living in such a bleak landscape, with the monster being essentially the grim reaper for those claimed by the cold
He hasn't been a good boy
your videos went from 100k views to 20k. not fair at all considering how GREAT your animations are.
YOU PICKED THE WRONG HOUSE, FOOL!
Though, aside from that joke, Really good video surkee!
These always manage to scare the shit out of me, keep up the great work mate
How to beat "The Christmas visitor"
The best thing is not to go alone in to a desolated house in a snow storm if paranormal things start to happen just go,as we see there wasnt any way to phisicly hurt the creatures,the only option is to not be in range of hes paranormal attacks.
I absolutely loved your “no face” video and have been following your channel ever since. I love your videos and it always make me smile whenever I see new uploads So thanks for that and I hope you’re doing well ❤ love from Canada 🇨🇦
another masterpiece by Surkee. love the videos
I'm 8 and a half minutes in and I'm having a hard time finishing because the internet has made me terrified of jump scares. This is an extremely tense piece. Holy cow.
glad to have my favorite youtuber upload
Perhaps the monsters are the result of some guilt / previous trauma that happened around a previous Christmas? And the protagonist shooting and running from the faceless entity in an infinite cycle represents his struggle to live with / get away from the said trauma or guilt. I came up with this from details in the house, such as bottles of alcohol surrounding a picture frame facing downwards on the table and the over all "depressing mood".
I'm telling you man, great content Just crack down on these titles and thumbnails! It will change your channel forever! Also your titles don't have to explain sfm stuff Just something creepy, and thumbnail for this one example that creature at the door when he first sees it might be a fantastic thumbnail. There's so much potential here! ❤
Wtf did i just watch
HE STEPPED ON IT DUUUDE
Surkee, a master of sound, story, and suspense. Keep creating, man.
all the guy wanted to do was to get his fire wood.
Idea for sfm creepypasta: continuation for stuck in the bath but an entity is the one doing it
10:43 Kinda cool! An interesting detail with a snow-covered hat and eyebrows
