Bro that feeling of "someone being centimetres away from your face and staring you down but you can't see them either because it's dark or you have your eyes closed" is visceral
I noticed that the whispering that makes people go mad sounds almost the same as the whispering in the angel episode, right at the end. And as the angel says, those people had "weak minds". And considering that angel was an alternate, i think religion plays a big role in this story.
Also, surviving the MAD caused by the alternate and being part of the 3% is called having gone through "Delusion Reversal", and the binary in the angel episode says "I am the true savior, I must reverse the delusion", to later say that we are weak and that he's deceiving us.
No it’s just showing u how it was all supposed to go according to the Bible but the story got altered by the alternates, that something got on the boat with Noah that he didn’t notice until it was too late that everyone was deceived “such weak minds” I hope this makes sense
You'll notice that the angel in the episode Overthrone also appears with a large, alien head for a moment. That was one of the "biologically impossible features" that was listed for type 2 "detectable" alternates to have. Then, later on, a shepherd is looking up at "Gabriel," and the text "Type 2: Detectable" is briefly shown. Gabriel was never an angel, it was always an alternate.
I’ve sat through Marble Hornets, I’ve sat through FNAF VHS by Squimpus McGrimpus, I’ve sat through The Walten Files, but this… This is something else. This is gonna be a good time.
@@haydenetic oh I whole heartedly agree that GHE is better than this, if it wasn’t obvious enough woodcrawlers were the main inspiration behind alternates lol. I’ve talked to remy a few times, he’s really cool
at 0:39, the same audio is played as in "Overthrone" when (if you have captions on) the angel alternate apparently starts speak in binary code. this binary code translates to "I am the one true verse the delusion. Joseph is next." which means that the patient was made aware of the presence and nature of whatever the angel actually is.
Actually, the Binary code in that video translates to, "I am the one true savior. I must reverse the delusion." I don't know about the Joseph bit, I probably missed it.
Listen, I know this was supposed to invoke fear, but the way the man just materializes like “BVBBVHWHBABSBSBABABQBBW” and whispers some demon’s hex before disappearing again is funny to me.
This is probably the most unsettling piece of horror I've ever watched. Mostly because of the fact that it weaponizes our sense of security or lack there of. We feel safe in our homes but as soon as we think someone or something unknown could be in the house with us, creates a sense of absolute rucking dread and I think that's absolutely terterrifying
And then there’s the fact that there’s no one for you to rely on in the event an Alternate does appear such as emergency services. They can out wait humans for days and will torment them until they willingly give up on life or they decide to confront the Alternate and are forced to go MAD and they end up killing themselves anyways. It’s frightening on every level because there seems to be no escape for most people and Alternates can appear out of nowhere. There’s no rhyme or reason to their appearance.
"...Last but not least, looking after your loved ones is a key factor for maintaining your mental stability."

@Ta ble that vague evil can just try me, the abyss within me will drive that poor thing MAD first. Im honstly pretty amazed how well im holding up on the outside.
So last night, I was in bed. I had just got off the phone with my girlfriend, and I had started to feel really tired. Keep in mind, I watched this around lunch time that same day. I was almost asleep with my eyes shut, until I heard a ring in my room, sounding like it came from the corner where my door was. After thinking about this video, I literally didn’t open my eyes. I started breathing really oddly, and I was sweating a lot. Keep in mind it was like 40 degrees outside, and my fan was on in my room, and I was only in a pair of sleeping shorts. I stayed like that for 30 minutes until I finally opened my eyes, and there was nothing there. I slept fine afterwards, but I was genuinely terrified. I used to have bad nightmares as a kid, and would often see figures in my room and the hallways. This series seems to have brought back a fear of mine I haven’t had in a long time. Mind you I’m 18, and I haven’t had to sleep under the covers like that since I was 10.
freaked me the FUCK out. production is great, atmosphere is EVERYTHING. but the weirdest part is that you somehow knew my delusions and hallucinations. my earliest psychotic episode started similarly to what was described at 1:50. it's strangely comforting to see it here, though. can't wait to see where this channel goes!
What if the suicide rate is 100% but they want people to have hope and come to them for help for the shown 3% reversal and then the "helpers" get information and maybe a cure?
This is such a surreal experience that hits really close to home when dealing with psychosis, I'm so glad that the similarities are being used/ treated respectfully!! It's so tiring when people use symptoms like that as an " enemy " in series instead of what causes the behaviorisms. Rooting for this series all the way!!!
May I ask for elaboration, if that's okay? I don't know much about psychosis, so I'm not really sure what you're talking about, but I'm curious to hear your point of view!
I’ve had psychosis before and for me it seemed like I was reading and then suddenly I thought that I had discovered a “god code.” After that happened, I lost all understanding of the context in which I existed. examples being, I drove somewhere on a paranoid whim and couldn’t figure out how to put my car in park. I also posted about 6 hours of very concerning footage on my instagram story of me just ranting. My self-awareness, identity and self control were gone. In reality, I was taking my meds wrong, barely eating, and barely sleeping. Because I was at such a dysfunctional place, I lost my mind for a little bit. Everyone’s psychosis is different, but I at least can somewhat relate to the idea of M.A.D.
This feels illegal to watch for free, holy hell- scared me shitless last night because I made the mistake of watching it before sleeping, but this is some high quality stuff right here- Hats off to the creators, god damn
I knew alternates could cause someone’s suicide!, since mark opened the door the alternate was laughing in the background knowing that he screwed up, ending up having mark shooting himself explaining the images and the text “nobody came for me” another reason being on the phone line the police were instructed to not help someone encountering an alternate encounter “no matter how frantic their screams are” so mark never could’ve gotten help no matter how fatal his attack was.
Considering that at least one "class" of alternates has the ability to seemingly possess analog technology and the statement that, "They exist on different spectrums," my theory is that the instructional materials telling Police not to respond to alternate encounters is actually edited propaganda from the alternates in order to ensure the vulnerability of their victims. It would also seem to be implied that alternates are drawn to people experiencing fear or paranoia, as part of the instruction for police responders is not to talk too much or risk showing that you're afraid.
@@FFXyvis my theory was that the police cannot actually do anything about them,soninstesd of wasting humans for someone they cannot save they try to make the victims stall their death so the alternates take longer,untill they find a solution to this mess
@@somo4227 yeah I wasn't thinking the police being told to not help was a bait so it'd be easier to kill the person calling for help, I figured it's because they know that it could be a trap, the same way Cesar and Mark's call was, and knew that calling for help would be something used to lure more people in
For someone who is dealing with depression and schizophrenia, watching this feels a bit comforting. I think the feeling that someone talenting is making horror videos about entities that you see and make you want to kill yourself... i feel like this speaks to me, for so long being mentally abused by those hallucinations but still here alive, i guess i'm the 3% of that video lol. Keep it up i appreciate your work a lot. Edit: Yall should leave my walls NOW.
hey even though I don’t have schizophrenia, I get where you’re coming from. this series started as a creative outlet for my extreme depression, so I can definitely confirm that this series has a lot of psychological elements that have stemmed from my own personal experiences. the 3% is the ones who has stuck through the hard times, including both me and you man. sometimes living is hard but the delusion can be reversed :) if this community makes you feel any more comfortable then we welcome you with open arms. I just want you to know that I truly understand what it is like to be tormented by your own mind. you’re not alone
I have schizoaffective disorder (basically bipolar and schizophrenia combined), and I feel the same way. the Alternates being like... a distortion of reality reminds me a lot of how hallucinations & delusions feel for me, like reality is just slightly off
Wow, a reference to both Overthrone with "Gabriel's" message used as the demonstration and possibly the stand-alone version of the THINK Principle segment with that man in the corner being alluded to in the final avoidance method. I probably shouldn't expect too much callbacks in Volume 2 but it's still cool to spot how these different threads in the story come together.
This confirms the Theory that Religious entities are Alternates, and that Alternates can't get you if you can't see them. Excellent world building and video as usual, I'm excited to see where this gets taken.
I don't think religious entities are alternates just because it mentions them, as it also mentions that you shouldn't think about philosophy. I think they know you will have an easy fear if you're too religious or if you think too much about death, because a few words can drive you to existential crisis. They can be demons, though, and the Jesus of this universe is probably Satan.
@@kikefuentes5191 By the first video, they are probably a sort of alienigenuous type of creature, which made Earth a future farm and wants to claim it back. They assumed ideologies and religions in order to kill its prey easily, and don't need to go hand-to-hand combat, i do wonder why they wouldn't though. I assume they can't kill their prey directly, but can induce them to it, if suicide by religion/ideals don't work then they will torture its prey until it suicides
That also is confirmed by the last video (the one before this one) where the baby of a mother has gone "missing" but we still hear cries of an baby, maybe she got hypnotized with something she "feared" and suicided, that's why Angel Gabriel talks about knowing what you dread and like
I’m so glad I found this. I’m tired of horror being all about jump scares and “shock” horror. The feeling of unease that every video produces is amazingly crafted. I look forward to the rest of your content. Thank you for providing us with these beauties
I've seen many ARGs and gore and stuff and listened to true crime so much that I am desensitized to scary stuff, but this series has managed to scare me. And not through jumpscares or scary imagery but through more creative and satisfying means. Excellent work
One of my favorites, the idea of having entities communicate with you in such an abrupt and disturbing way, revealing dark truths or what not is creepy
This is a genuine master class of horror content. It consistently subdues expectations and uses audio to its fullest extent to fully immerse the viewers into the fictional word this is based on. This is what deserves funding from companies like Netflix and Hulu instead of cheap shock value and jump scares keep it up dude
I have to say, I've seen a lot of analogue horror and other series on UA-cam (Local58, The Walten Files and such) and this is BY FAR the scariest one that I have I have watched. It's so unique and different and its set my anxiety on a different scale, when I watch these videos I genuinely am turning in my seat to see if an 'Alternate' is behind me. I'm in genuine awe at this series and how fantastic it has been so far, while being freaked out, I find it to be my favorite series on UA-cam! Literally dude, you have the hairs standing on the back of my neck, if that was the effect you were going for the your most certainly achieved it! Much love dude, can't wait to see the next episode
I love when having genuine fear imprinted upon my being, it's my favorite. Looking forward to season 2 being a deeper dive into this narrative of psychosis.
That last part triggered some sort of primal fear I didn’t know I had. Like an urge to do something, anything, to stop the “threat”. It was very unpleasant. And I want more
Remember when they said the 3 types of the monsters and how the second one was missing? What if the second one is the ones that watch you from the corner
There's actually another vid with the second ones, they're called "Detectables" and theyre some sort of religious thing as the picture representing the Detectables was jesus
My theory is, mad is just the psychological effect alternates have on people. Alternates have either existed throughout history, or they’re time travelers. This seems possible because the organization from the think principle is called the us defense against temporal phenomenon. Think about it, alternates can change shape. The angel in dethrone is obviously a very dangerous and powerful alternate, possibly the first ever. What if all angels, all supernatural beings throughout history, are simply alternates? The video states not to participate in religious or philosophical practices, implying that makes M.A.D. worse. What if god, all gods, are just mass psychological effect that alternates had? Muhammad could’ve been an alternate. Jesus could’ve been an alternate. Abraham could’ve been an alternate. Alternates use psychological warfare to get their prey in a vulnerable state, but I think we underestimated just how bad the mental effect they have on people just from being near them is. Almost everyone who is affected by this disorder kills themselves. This explains why the mother in intruder alert immediately committed suicide after seeing her baby missing. Any rational mother would call the police, file a missing person report, look for their child, right? No. She just ended it right there. Why? Because the alternate was in the immediate vicinity. Its effect was too much.
Cool but now imagine if this ends up being some dude who was driven mad via Mother killing herself due to the child actually being a miscarriage The guy who's mother became a alternate killed himself due to his mother actually dying by a intruder and the guy was the protagonist friend And then he turns to religion but hes far gone that he thinks that alternates were the things to cause all the bad things to happen so he imagines everything creature being a alternate And why police abandoned alternate victims is because they abandoned the protagonist due to his frequent calls to the point its annoying and pointless
So there's a horrifying force sweeping the community and authorities insists that the best response is to ignore it and hope it goes away on its own. Nope, can't think of any real world analogues.
Thank you for this series Alex. it's the best way to show people what living with Severe OCD is like everyday.It is truly a horrifying Mental struggle.
Omg I didn't think anyone else watching experienced the same thing. I also have severe ocd and this video actually freaked me out cause my ocd tried going like WhAt If It'S rEaL BeCaUsE YoU ExPeRiEnCe ThIs dAiLy and I legit couldn't continue watching for weeks until recently because it'd trigger major panic over the thought of me becoming delusional and thinking it's real. It was pretty bad. I don't want to assume you have ocd in case you're just speaking for people like me who do, but if you do then just know you're not the only one watching who totally feels the same way and experiences the same things.
@@lanabobana3311 I do have severe ocd and it gets to the point where I lose touch with reality and believe this stuffs actually happening. The catalog is an amazing representation of what it's like to Struggle with Severe Ocd what really does it for me is the "NOTHING IS WORTH THE RISK" and the twist on religious beliefs really hit hard for me. As an fellow ocd fighter I pray you'll get to a better place mentally.
You can't change the thumbnail AND make it "titleless" and expect me to not come back to it (and enjoy every second of it) Ladies and Gentlemen and all in between, It's theorizing time
Im curious, essentially this is saying "Say no to religion and philosphy" or at least to not make them take a majoroty of your life Im wondering if this is because people who are have a more structured expectation of life and hwo thing work among others, a d as such M.A.D is them breaking down into lunacy and madness and depression as their entire world view is broken, possibly by the Alternates who seem to feed or empwper from fear
Maybe they're trying to break down religion to strip people's morale to rely on the fear factor because I think that they use fear as their tactics when killing
Its also curiois to note the only example we're ever given of an "identifible" Alter, that is,a Type 2, is the Angel from the first video, the problem is... how do they know? How did they even know such a thing happened so long ago? Maybe Just maybe The broadcasts arent made by the goverment But by Alters making them pass as goverment PSAs to help themsleves stir up much more fear and make victims way more vulnerable, that could explain odd thinga on breadcasts such as calling the aithorities (whom we know are under direct orders to not answer) or trying to self defense if they see it viable Hell the PSA for authorities could also be made by alters to discourage authirities form getitng involved and bringing in more powerfuk fire weappns that could actually harm them or at the very least have an effect on them
This series is actually motivating me to make my own series :) ive been wanting to do it but im alittle nervous tho, and your recent stuff with some other series, is motivating me to upload more stuff! Cool series :D
Oh god this is so awesome!! ajdbisb, you gave some paranoia last night in bed, bad, but cool to see that your videos have those effects on people sometimes. Also proud to say here before it becomes popular! Seriously dude, this is going to explode any time soon when it starts to recommend to people (like me that i discovered this like two days ago) or is shared by the fans! Love it :)
I don't usually share personal stories, but after seeing this; I think I'll make an exception. One time when I was fifteen I was resting on my bed, getting ready to fall asleep but for some reason I couldn't. My eyes were closed as i tried to sleep and something was keeping me awake. For some reason I began to feel uncomfortable and then I felt my vision darken as my eyes were closed. The thing is, my window at the time was near a street lamp and it was bright and would brighten up my room a bit and feeling this sudden darkness scared me. I could feel someone staring down at me but I dared not open my eyes. It was honestly the scariest moment of my life and I did what every teenager would obviously do and prayed to God. I'm not sure if saying the verses in my head helped or not but I was able to feel safer and fall asleep. To this day, I have no idea what could have stood next to me or darkened my room but I'm glad I never felt it again. Side note: a few months before that incident, my sister and I were downstairs talking when I heard my youngest brother at the time, he was around six, come crying down stairs from the second floor, yelling that he saw an old lady outside the window. I asked him now but he has no recollection of it and plays it off. I wonder sometimes if that was her watching me.
I hate to be that guy who exaggerates everything, but that sequence at 1:37 is straight up TERRIFYING. It really takes some skill to build up this much tension with so little.
thank you coryxkenshin now i found about this amazing content to watch! such a creppy unsettling videos but it’s so cool !! keep it up waiting for volume 2

I’ve had psychosis before and for me it seemed like I was reading and then suddenly I thought that I had discovered a “god code.” After that happened, I lost all understanding of the context in which I existed.
examples being, I drove somewhere on a paranoid whim and couldn’t figure out how to put my car in park. I also posted about 6 hours of very concerning footage on my instagram story of me just ranting. My self-awareness, identity and self control were gone.
In reality, I was taking my meds wrong, barely eating, and barely sleeping. Because I was at such a dysfunctional place, I lost my mind for a little bit. Everyone’s psychosis is different, but I at least can somewhat relate to the idea of M.A.D.
This feels illegal to watch for free, holy hell- scared me shitless last night because I made the mistake of watching it before sleeping, but this is some high quality stuff right here-
Hats off to the creators, god damn
I never actually "hiT tHe beLl" for any channel before, but this one does make me want to be aware of new uploads as early as possible.

I knew alternates could cause someone’s suicide!, since mark opened the door the alternate was laughing in the background knowing that he screwed up, ending up having mark shooting himself explaining the images and the text “nobody came for me” another reason being on the phone line the police were instructed to not help someone encountering an alternate encounter “no matter how frantic their screams are” so mark never could’ve gotten help no matter how fatal his attack was.
Considering that at least one "class" of alternates has the ability to seemingly possess analog technology and the statement that, "They exist on different spectrums," my theory is that the instructional materials telling Police not to respond to alternate encounters is actually edited propaganda from the alternates in order to ensure the vulnerability of their victims. It would also seem to be implied that alternates are drawn to people experiencing fear or paranoia, as part of the instruction for police responders is not to talk too much or risk showing that you're afraid.
That actually makes sense!
@@FFXyvis my theory was that the police cannot actually do anything about them,soninstesd of wasting humans for someone they cannot save they try to make the victims stall their death so the alternates take longer,untill they find a solution to this mess
@@somo4227 yeah I wasn't thinking the police being told to not help was a bait so it'd be easier to kill the person calling for help, I figured it's because they know that it could be a trap, the same way Cesar and Mark's call was, and knew that calling for help would be something used to lure more people in
@@FFXyvis oh shit, that also makes sense
For someone who is dealing with depression and schizophrenia, watching this feels a bit comforting. I think the feeling that someone talenting is making horror videos about entities that you see and make you want to kill yourself... i feel like this speaks to me, for so long being mentally abused by those hallucinations but still here alive, i guess i'm the 3% of that video lol.
Keep it up i appreciate your work a lot.
Edit: Yall should leave my walls NOW.
hey even though I don’t have schizophrenia, I get where you’re coming from. this series started as a creative outlet for my extreme depression, so I can definitely confirm that this series has a lot of psychological elements that have stemmed from my own personal experiences. the 3% is the ones who has stuck through the hard times, including both me and you man. sometimes living is hard but the delusion can be reversed :) if this community makes you feel any more comfortable then we welcome you with open arms. I just want you to know that I truly understand what it is like to be tormented by your own mind. you’re not alone
@@justfriendsgaming6151 bro what
@@justfriendsgaming6151 what?
I have schizoaffective disorder (basically bipolar and schizophrenia combined), and I feel the same way. the Alternates being like... a distortion of reality reminds me a lot of how hallucinations & delusions feel for me, like reality is just slightly off
@@AlexxKister Thanks a lot for the welcoming and kind words.

"Reverse the delusion."
That was said in 'Overthrone' nearing the end. Coincidence?
Wow, a reference to both Overthrone with "Gabriel's" message used as the demonstration and possibly the stand-alone version of the THINK Principle segment with that man in the corner being alluded to in the final avoidance method.
I probably shouldn't expect too much callbacks in Volume 2 but it's still cool to spot how these different threads in the story come together.
is Gabriel the angel statue thing?
@@ussrname1254 yeah, it's the angel
@@ussrname1254 I think it wasn't a statue, but in fact a real alternate.
This confirms the Theory that Religious entities are Alternates, and that Alternates can't get you if you can't see them.
Excellent world building and video as usual, I'm excited to see where this gets taken.
they cant get you if you dont listen to them
I don't think religious entities are alternates just because it mentions them, as it also mentions that you shouldn't think about philosophy. I think they know you will have an easy fear if you're too religious or if you think too much about death, because a few words can drive you to existential crisis.
They can be demons, though, and the Jesus of this universe is probably Satan.
@@kailyjuarez8811 imagine them trying to lure you and you're just like 🤨 anyways and going on w ur daily life
@@kikefuentes5191 By the first video, they are probably a sort of alienigenuous type of creature, which made Earth a future farm and wants to claim it back. They assumed ideologies and religions in order to kill its prey easily, and don't need to go hand-to-hand combat, i do wonder why they wouldn't though. I assume they can't kill their prey directly, but can induce them to it, if suicide by religion/ideals don't work then they will torture its prey until it suicides
That also is confirmed by the last video (the one before this one) where the baby of a mother has gone "missing" but we still hear cries of an baby, maybe she got hypnotized with something she "feared" and suicided, that's why Angel Gabriel talks about knowing what you dread and like
this whole situation is giving me metaphysical awareness disorder fr

@@TediiMilkyWayz hii
So M.A.D. is essentially an existential crisis on steroids?

I hope we get more content regarding the “alternates” that stuff was absolutely terrifying
i think all of the cannel is content about the alternates
right it's like I'm so terrified of them, but I want to see other forms of them and different appearances of them in later videos
"Pim, can we watch something else?"
"Shh, its about to get good."
I’m so glad I found this. I’m tired of horror being all about jump scares and “shock” horror. The feeling of unease that every video produces is amazingly crafted. I look forward to the rest of your content. Thank you for providing us with these beauties

I've seen many ARGs and gore and stuff and listened to true crime so much that I am desensitized to scary stuff, but this series has managed to scare me. And not through jumpscares or scary imagery but through more creative and satisfying means. Excellent work
0:49 change the world. My final message. Goodbye.
One of my favorites, the idea of having entities communicate with you in such an abrupt and disturbing way, revealing dark truths or what not is creepy
Oh this is a cool concept, looking forward to seeing how it connects to everything else when more is shown of volume 2
1:37 thanks! i will never be able to sleep again ever.
0:33 i love how the alternate just phases into existance, whisphers some wierd shit into the paitient's ear, and then phases back out of existance
This is a genuine master class of horror content. It consistently subdues expectations and uses audio to its fullest extent to fully immerse the viewers into the fictional word this is based on. This is what deserves funding from companies like Netflix and Hulu instead of cheap shock value and jump scares
keep it up dude
This series is so underrated, yet so unique and compelling. Looking forward to volume 2!
I love it when a figure manifests beside me and whispers sweetness in my ear
I have to say, I've seen a lot of analogue horror and other series on UA-cam (Local58, The Walten Files and such) and this is BY FAR the scariest one that I have I have watched.
It's so unique and different and its set my anxiety on a different scale, when I watch these videos I genuinely am turning in my seat to see if an 'Alternate' is behind me. I'm in genuine awe at this series and how fantastic it has been so far, while being freaked out, I find it to be my favorite series on UA-cam!
Literally dude, you have the hairs standing on the back of my neck, if that was the effect you were going for the your most certainly achieved it!
Much love dude, can't wait to see the next episode
I love when having genuine fear imprinted upon my being, it's my favorite.
Looking forward to season 2 being a deeper dive into this narrative of psychosis.
I knew they were watching me when I was very little. I didn’t need my eyes open to watch them back.
That last part triggered some sort of primal fear I didn’t know I had. Like an urge to do something, anything, to stop the “threat”. It was very unpleasant.
And I want more
I just started watching this today, what are the odds. this looks great though, good job!
Bruh same lol
Same!! lmao
Not even gonna lie, same here buddy
I described these videos as horror that isn't scary, rather they're uncomfortable and ominous
I think thats a pretty good description
Now this is the type of horror I love. This series truly stays unique to most other analog horror series. Props to you man!
Remember when they said the 3 types of the monsters and how the second one was missing? What if the second one is the ones that watch you from the corner
Probably the antichrist
There's actually another vid with the second ones, they're called "Detectables" and theyre some sort of religious thing as the picture representing the Detectables was jesus
@@workplacei1024 oh cool
@@TrueHey also fun fact I'm pretty sure this video has to do with the detectables since the mention of the religion and philosophy

@@coyolxauhquipendejowey361 yeah that would be awesome
the auto generated captions throwing in a 'you' at the very end when there was no sound really added to the experience
My theory is, mad is just the psychological effect alternates have on people. Alternates have either existed throughout history, or they’re time travelers. This seems possible because the organization from the think principle is called the us defense against temporal phenomenon. Think about it, alternates can change shape. The angel in dethrone is obviously a very dangerous and powerful alternate, possibly the first ever. What if all angels, all supernatural beings throughout history, are simply alternates? The video states not to participate in religious or philosophical practices, implying that makes M.A.D. worse. What if god, all gods, are just mass psychological effect that alternates had? Muhammad could’ve been an alternate. Jesus could’ve been an alternate. Abraham could’ve been an alternate. Alternates use psychological warfare to get their prey in a vulnerable state, but I think we underestimated just how bad the mental effect they have on people just from being near them is. Almost everyone who is affected by this disorder kills themselves. This explains why the mother in intruder alert immediately committed suicide after seeing her baby missing. Any rational mother would call the police, file a missing person report, look for their child, right? No. She just ended it right there. Why? Because the alternate was in the immediate vicinity. Its effect was too much.
Cool but now imagine if this ends up being some dude who was driven mad via
Mother killing herself due to the child actually being a miscarriage
The guy who's mother became a alternate killed himself due to his mother actually dying by a intruder and the guy was the protagonist friend
And then he turns to religion but hes far gone that he thinks that alternates were the things to cause all the bad things to happen so he imagines everything creature being a alternate
And why police abandoned alternate victims is because they abandoned the protagonist due to his frequent calls to the point its annoying and pointless
@@crimsononaut_in_space there should be a story about the national guard division and to see what they do besides law enforcement
This was so very well said I almost cried.
good theory!
Alternates making you realize that history itself is sus.

Thank you for this series Alex. it's the best way to show people what living with Severe OCD is like everyday.It is truly a horrifying Mental struggle.
Omg I didn't think anyone else watching experienced the same thing. I also have severe ocd and this video actually freaked me out cause my ocd tried going like WhAt If It'S rEaL BeCaUsE YoU ExPeRiEnCe ThIs dAiLy and I legit couldn't continue watching for weeks until recently because it'd trigger major panic over the thought of me becoming delusional and thinking it's real. It was pretty bad. I don't want to assume you have ocd in case you're just speaking for people like me who do, but if you do then just know you're not the only one watching who totally feels the same way and experiences the same things.
@@lanabobana3311 I do have severe ocd and it gets to the point where I lose touch with reality and believe this stuffs actually happening. The catalog is an amazing representation of what it's like to
Struggle with Severe Ocd what really does it for me is the "NOTHING IS WORTH THE RISK" and the twist on religious beliefs really hit hard for me. As an fellow ocd fighter I pray you'll get to a better place mentally.
You can't change the thumbnail AND make it "titleless" and expect me to not come back to it (and enjoy every second of it)

Im curious, essentially this is saying "Say no to religion and philosphy" or at least to not make them take a majoroty of your life
Im wondering if this is because people who are have a more structured expectation of life and hwo thing work among others, a d as such M.A.D is them breaking down into lunacy and madness and depression as their entire world view is broken, possibly by the Alternates who seem to feed or empwper from fear
Maybe because religions was created by alters(there is a video hinting on this in this channel)
Maybe they're trying to break down religion to strip people's morale to rely on the fear factor because I think that they use fear as their tactics when killing
maybe they're being told that they're fictional characters created for our entertainment and that their world isn't real lol.
Its also curiois to note the only example we're ever given of an "identifible" Alter, that is,a Type 2, is the Angel from the first video, the problem is... how do they know? How did they even know such a thing happened so long ago?
Maybe
Just maybe
The broadcasts arent made by the goverment
But by Alters making them pass as goverment PSAs to help themsleves stir up much more fear and make victims way more vulnerable, that could explain odd thinga on breadcasts such as calling the aithorities (whom we know are under direct orders to not answer) or trying to self defense if they see it viable
Hell the PSA for authorities could also be made by alters to discourage authirities form getitng involved and bringing in more powerfuk fire weappns that could actually harm them or at the very least have an effect on them
Most people's faith isn't strong enough, no matter the religion, making it worse when alternates strike

Oh god this is so awesome!! ajdbisb, you gave some paranoia last night in bed, bad, but cool to see that your videos have those effects on people sometimes.
Also proud to say here before it becomes popular! Seriously dude, this is going to explode any time soon when it starts to recommend to people (like me that i discovered this like two days ago) or is shared by the fans!
Love it :)
I don't usually share personal stories, but after seeing this; I think I'll make an exception.
One time when I was fifteen I was resting on my bed, getting ready to fall asleep but for some reason I couldn't. My eyes were closed as i tried to sleep and something was keeping me awake. For some reason I began to feel uncomfortable and then I felt my vision darken as my eyes were closed. The thing is, my window at the time was near a street lamp and it was bright and would brighten up my room a bit and feeling this sudden darkness scared me. I could feel someone staring down at me but I dared not open my eyes. It was honestly the scariest moment of my life and I did what every teenager would obviously do and prayed to God. I'm not sure if saying the verses in my head helped or not but I was able to feel safer and fall asleep. To this day, I have no idea what could have stood next to me or darkened my room but I'm glad I never felt it again.
Side note: a few months before that incident, my sister and I were downstairs talking when I heard my youngest brother at the time, he was around six, come crying down stairs from the second floor, yelling that he saw an old lady outside the window. I asked him now but he has no recollection of it and plays it off. I wonder sometimes if that was her watching me.
Oh I am HERE for THIS series.
