- I saw this really cool concept art on twitter by @_jamboe and thought I would mix their themes together to see what it sounded like.

no freaking way

no way..
I thought you all just disappeared in totk...
The real
You know what would make it more scarier?
That they grab you, then they will start preparing the laser to shoot you while they are grabbing you with their hands
Edit: they can walk like a spider even on the roof they can also glitch out since you know they are old and they are being controlled by malice
Yooooooo that sounds sick. If I had talent and could mod games, I would make that
Where from the darkest depths (see what I did there) did that come from?
And if you defeat one of them, they transform into one of the Blight Ganon’s from BOTW
I could see that as a Boss fight mechanic, the Guardian part not fully focused trying to lazer you whiles the Gloom Hands hold you and as they hold you and the Guardian trying to find and shoot you, you pull out a bow and shoot it in the Eye

ok, the music is stellar, but can we just talk about how amazing the art is as well, the idea of a decayed guardian getting it's spider legs back by fusing with gloom hands and sprinting at you even more quickly than in botw, while being able to grab you and make it impossible to avoid getting lasered is absolutely terrifying
well the guardians were REALLY fast at the start of the calamity
@@1000-THRFrom your pfp I’m not surprised you know so much about the machine walkers lmao

Literal chills over the idea of the gloom hands taking over the empty shell of a guardian
Can you imagine if they made a DLC and you find a cave with decayed guardians that never got dismantled. You make your way deeper and deeper, and right at the end, this music starts playing.
I’m would switch off my switch so fast
PLEASE GIVE US THAT NINTENDO
I would cry, scream, go back to playing pikmin 4
As you can walk through the darkness of the cave, it transitions into a cutscene and link turns around to see gloom hands take over the body of a guardian and the health bar appears on the top of the screen and it says “ gloom guardian (the sheikah and malice incarnate).
That makes it even worse @@Rando_528 😭
The scariest part to me is the lack of warning and just hearing the shriek of the monster. If you are not near an elevated surface then you are in for a shitty time.
Elevation won’t help you if it can climb.
Your only option will be fight.
Fast travel
@@AuroraTheIdiot unless it's a similar situation to a sandstorm in Gerudo Desert back in Botw since you couldn't fast travel there, so if this was an actual boss then it could be located in a place where you just couldn't fast travel, which would be really terrifying if you ask me.
I was LITERALLY JUST TALKING ABOUT THE SCREECH. I remember walking on the Hyrule castle grounds, heard the screech and said “Dear God where is that thing??”
Imagine an area in the depths called the "Shiekah Tech Dump" or something along those lines. As you venture further into this maze of a junkyard, you find items such as the ancient arrow head and other great gear. On your way out, an old, broken guardian head rolls out of the pile in front of you. A gloom hand rushes out of said pile, dragging the corpse of the guardian out with it. The gloom hand screws the head of the guardian back on, activating it and several other gloom hands shoot out of the bottom, where the legs used to be. A health bar appears on your screen. "Scourge of Hyrule Kingdom, Gloom Guardian" (or smthing) It screeches and takes aim, the combination of shiekah tech and gloom interfere with your purah pad, having a similar effect to the sandstorm in gerudo desert. You try to run, but this thing is faster than anything you've faced yet. Using prior knowledge of the gloom spawn, you climb up high, but this is no gloom spawn. Instead of appearing out of the ground, the arms come from the guardian itself allowing it to climb. Even an incredibly powerful weapon (like a silver Lynnwood horn with a royal guard claymore) seems to be practically ineffective. If the gloom infused laser misses you, it will explode and splatter gloom everywhere around it. However if you get hit, it will deal tremendous damage (even full heart containers is similar to just a few) it will also permagloom one of your hearts (which could be bought from bargainer or horned statues) or can also grab and shoot you, which at such close range is fatal unless you escape (or are at full health as you can't die if you are) of you manage to kill the arms, the second phase will initiate. Phantom Ganon bursts out of the guardian shell and no longer has the traditional gloom weapons, but wields a seemingly shiekah blade with a scythe (similar to silver lizalfos horns) fused on top. With this weapon, phantom Ganon is able to use it like all 3 weapon types. After the phantom Ganon fight, he drops the scythe topping as a material for fusing. It would have the most fuse attack power in the game. Also probably some special thing.
This enemy is not Ganons doing. It will not respawn after a blood moon as Ganon has no control over it. After a blood moon, only normal gloom hands would spawn here.
how does this not have any replies yet? this idea is top tier pls nintendo hire this man
So F cool and terrifying
I smell a mod idea 👀
Genuinely got goosebumps listening to this. Imagine you're on great plateau tower and you see this scuttling up the side at 50mph shooting gloom beams at you
I’m surprised Nintendo didn’t do this in tears of the kingdom because it would bring back those Botw flashbacks while terrifying you with the screams of the gloom hands.
like fr... they almost pretended everything 'ancient' didn't exist! there's still plenty of examples but even the remotest guardian shells vanished without a trace
@@Shnarfbirdmaybe Ganondorf could pull some illusion stuff or something bring you flashbacks of the Guardians but they’re all Gloomed/Maliced up
@@Shnarfbirdwell actually you can find a decayed guardian shell on top of the lab
@@jblockminermc5401 Yeah I already said there's still some examples, they are just too rare
@@Shnarfbird yeah I agree, the worst examples are the towers.
They took down all these towers that all had map data just to make there own that serve the exact same purpose but not only less efficient but also…..

If this ever actually happens in a Master Mode DLC, I can and will throw my cartridge into a lake.

@@nathanpfirman625 good idea
I WANT this to be a thing!
It’s confirmed that totk is getting no dlc 😭
Now this is the missed opportunity of the century. They didn't have to remove the busted up Guardians when they could have made these absolute beasts!
0:49 strikes fear into my heart
Okay, but Imagine this:
You take out the legs, thinking you immobilized it, but then two more legs sprout out, along with arms, and now you have to deal with a humanoid guardian (b/c phantom ganon)
phantom ganon in guardian armour would go crazy
Ganon guardian
Phantom Ganon with sheikah tech is pretty much just a humanoid calamity Ganon Lol. And I LOVE it
The body drops out from below the head and it PICKS UP THE BODY AND USES IT AS A SHIELD
I would be terrified but I would be so excited to fight it
A gloom possessed spider guardian with gloom hands popping out from everywhere. Once it catches you, it starts charging up to fire at you. You have to immobilize it AND defeat the gloom hands to "kill" it. Once it is "dead" a phantom Ganon with ancient weapons pops out. Best of luck
or, a blight could emerge once the guardian and hands are done for
A mangled phantom ganon mixed with a blight or ancient technology. Instant nightmare fuel
Or Ganondorf Phase 2 will appear
or gloom hands come out when you chop off the Guardian limbs.
That's just ganon in age of calamity
I love the concept of this, just finding one of those broken nonfuntional guardians like in BotW, and then it starts moving but its legs are replaced by the hands
Instead of that lynel in glooms approach , imagine a solitary decyaed guradian ,you jump down and a cut scene begins with THAT coming for you??? Terrified bro terrified
That fanart is terrifying.
It gave me chills
Pretty good mixing the pieces together, however the gloom spawn theme is very dissonant and quiet and uneasy whereas the guardian theme is not dissonant, very fast and in your face. These pieces are polar opposites, I am surprised you made it sound that good!
it really helped that they're both _mostly_ the same time signature, albeit different tempos
The gloom Hand is itself unsettling whilst the guardian is merely machinery
@@enclavesoldier770 One wouldn't think anything about ripping you to shreds; meanwhile, the other would relish the idea 😂
i think the mistmatched songs would make it scarier

this is just uncreative
Actually kinda wish this was a boss in the Depths. A Gloom-infected Guardian
Gloom Stalker. The body would just be the husk of a Guardian that the Gloom found and took over, there would probably just be one, like the one on top of the laboratory
oh my god imagine the one atop the lab suddenly woke up full of gloom
Bro I just drew a version of this and called it that, do I need a new name now?
Nah, it'd probably be in the field of decayed guardians. There's the one, and if you happen to be near it when a blood moon triggers...
@@Raving_Piranha_Plant oooo
Imagine getting grabbed by depression as hands while a living rock turrent aims at you.
Theme song of the physical manifestation of fear just dropped.
You do know Nintendo hasn't made any DLC for Tears of the Kingdom yet. You have just given them the most horrifying idea imaginable...
Imagine adding the skyward sword guardian theme now
No please no.
yessss
Hahahahaha, that would be delightfully horrifying.
And the gidos screen randomly
😃 un uh
"The lingering malic within this abomination remembers you, and it is ragefull indeed"
associate surely the two most terrifying video game themes there is.... pure genius
They should just make the next Zelda game a full on horror game, with this as one of the enemies. Just imagine the pure fear in every Zelda fan's eyes when encountering one of these.
If you're feeling extra spicy, add in the Ocarina of Time Redeads with their chilling scream and make the moon look eerily similar to the Majora's Mask moon and add in a cutscene of the Skull Kid being briefly seen before running off to add to the fear of the Moon possibly going to crush the planet again.
@@TinySwanGrandAdventures and add the dead hands in, in new horrifying glory
Search up zelda horror game and i guarantee that majora’s mask is somewhere there
Don't sleep on Twilight Princess's Shadow Beasts. Those things are nightmare fuel.
@@Stormthepolterwolf Let’s not forget the Skyward Sword Guardians!
I don't know what's greater. The utter fear and PTSD i have from the guardian theme, or the heart attacks when the gloom hands show up.
This is why the Hylians dismantled the guardians
Listening to the music and looking at the art reminds me of those horrid nightmares where something's chasing you and your legs stop working. Oddly enough though, I love this!
The soundtrack to Link's nightmares
indeed it is

And grabbed you and started to point a lazer
@@sebastianrodriguez8145i'm picturing them crawling on cielings and walls like spiders too
@@willoworm Oh god, flashbacks to when wallmasters were a thing in LoZ games. I actually forgot about those guys!
@@zero9435 It would definitely fit with their motif of bringing back old enemies with new mechanics. I doubt they'd use guardians again, but I can't wait to see what they do with the DLC
@@sebastianrodriguez8145So like grabbed you, held you near the eye laser and focused the beam on you?
It grabs you and then stares into your face with its cold, soulless eye(s) as it shoots its laser… terrifying
I'm terrified of you. The concept is absolutely incredible as an artist and musician though.
THIS IS EVEN MORE TERRIFYING
YOU DESCRIBED BOTH OF MY TRAUMAS
I could imagine it would look like the guardians that are in the ground from BOTW but when approached gloom would surround it and make it burst from the ground covering the broken guardian in its own gloom and the hands would rapidly make their way to you working like its legs *(and like a comment said the hands would grab you while target locking a laser on you)* And when you hit the guardian in the eye to stun it a few times it would work like a hinox, the hands will start to cover the guardians eye if you try to take aim again.
The idea of it looking like a dead guardian then popping up to ambush you reminds me a bit of the giant crab monsters in Dredge! The gloom in TotK looking like the Panic in Dredge really adds to it too!
WE RUNNING FROM HORRORS BEYOND OUR COMPREHENSION WITH THIS ONE 🗣🗣🗣🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
a bit late to comment, but I agree, this isn't anxiety, dread, or even fear.
This would be pure terror
I want whoever made this to be left alone in hyrule field with this thing.
1:12 was probably my favorite part, as it slowed down the Guardian Battle theme and added in the creepiness of the Gloom Hands. And the reversed hums made by people just made this even better.
This is stressing me out so much just to listen to
If this happens i am genuinely going to cry. I know this because I cried the first time I met the hands, and the guardians
ALL THE PAIN, ALL THE NIGHTMARES, THEY'RE ALL COMING BACK TO ME!!
Too bad there's no plans to make DLC, because this would be such a perfect addition and a great way to address where the Sheikah technology went
There's no plan until there is
@@cripheponine normally, I would agree. However, Nintendo did say that they have no plans on making TOTK DLC
As someone who has played both games, words cannot explain the chill i felt listening to this. Bad memories indeed
i was more scared listing to this then watching all of the first IT movie good job

@@Enforc3r bullet time my a- it can just GRAB YOU before you have time to activate it
ooh, i like the 'short break' in the music to just have Guardian Whirring sounds...it almost feels like trying to run away from this "Gloom Guardian"-- maybe for just a split-second, you broke Line-Of-Sight (maybe you ran past a tree or something) so it has to take a moment to re-acquire a Target...
I found this and i was like
"im so afraid. and yet intrigued." glad to know it was as terrifying as i thought itd be
I can imagine all the hands hurrying off in different directions after you manage to take down the head.
(The story cuts to link, feeling a disturbance at the sealed off shrine of ressurection.)
*Link has a vision of Zelda as he brushes his arm along the door*
Link... I had hoped you would never find this place... Ganondorf, when experimenting with his new powers, created monsters, many of which were ungodly...
Fusing Shikah technology with his newfound power, created a creature that I fear... would be the last one you meet...
So, with the last of my strength, I sealed the beast away in the shrine of resurrection, in hopes to contain it, so that you shall never cross paths with it...
*Link exits the Vision*
Link: Grunts in confusion/curiosity.
*Link brushes his arm up against the doors of the shrine*
Door: *Glows bright blue, being overtaken by a dark red, with gloom oozing out of it.*
(Suddenly... familiar beeping noises with a red laser points at link.)
*Gloom hands sprout out of the darkness and grab hold of link*
(Finally, with a closer look... Link trembles in fear... the gloom guardian, has awoken...)
*Blast!*
*Queue Game Over Screen*
Link’s thoughts: *it’s like all my nightmares all come to life, cloned itself, fucked the clone and made those things!*
Thanks for the nightmares!
@@neoterumi4772 well, that is an interesting way to be thinking there Link 😅
Hypothetically Speaking:
If Nintendo was to make a BoTW 3, what nightmare fuel enemy (akin to the Guardian or Gloom Hands) do you think they would add to keep us on our toes?
honestly I'd be FLOORED if they brought back guardians, but friendly
not exactly "nightmare fuel" but it would be awesome so whatever
Maybe a normal enemy that appears to be normal but once you kill it gloom/malice sprouts out of its body and consumes the entire enemy camp and all the enemies nearby and acts as a fusion of enemies with things like bokoblin arms attached to it and lizalfo arms. Worst part is that they don't have set spawn areas an maybe every 300 enemies killed one will spawn or just make it happen randomly. And make it chase you down like the gloom hands. And guarantee the next night will be a blood moon.
@@nathanpfirman625 That would be nightmare fuel... I love it

ok but this picture is pure nightmare fuel.
Idk why this got recommended to me eight months later but ofc I’m still gonna watch it 💪
The goat
This actually works
I imagine that the decayed guardian from hateno is found by a set of hands and the way it walks is by the hands clawing and dragging the forcefully active corpse of the guardian and his t might attack you by grabbing and draining your health while also firing the laser point blank.

The beginning goes so F*cking hard, gotta give some credits to this man👏
This genuinely scares me. Good job.
You know… A twilit Gloom hand mix would slap, hard
Guardians posessed by gloom spawn seems like an Age of Calamity enemy
Yeah, AoC’s Malice Guardians are pretty close to this concept.
gonna find a way to wind-bomb again just so i have a fast getaway if this ever happens in the DLC :)

I know nintendo say they won’t add any dlc to the game but BRO I WANNA SEE THIS HAPPEN SO BADLY 😭💀
actually heart attack. the amount of anxiety from both separately and then TOGETHER, im dying
thats actully really coool
now i get nightmares from both games....
Very neat concept, hope a totk dlc adds this as a miniboss or a boss in general
NOW THIS MAKES SENSE, and even with my knowledge on these 2 bosses, both fought, I would still die to the combination, lasers plus the grab, oof.
The only thing that could make this any more horrifying is if the guardian head stretched off of its body, revealing a gloom neck covered in eyes that spread shoots lasers. Just picture the demonic Thomas the tank engine, and you will understand what I mean.
You mean Choo Choo Charles?
@@TinySwanGrandAdventures Yes.
This is great. It captures the dissonance of both songs really well and instills the same fear as my first encounters with both of these horrors.
See, they said they couldn't do anymore with totk, but this is the exact kind of stuff that I would love to see from a dlc. Could you imagine?
You go to the hateno tech lab and robbie tells you he got a sheikah shrine up and running, or that it activated out of nowhere and then sends you to check it out. You go down the elevator like in botw until the elevator stops, pauses for a couple seconds (maybe shakes and link regains balance for dramatic effect), then plummets at high speeds. When you reach the bottom, you see a ruined guardian. (Specifically the kind from botw where it's just the main body without any of the legs) you either run towards it expecting to search it for screws or you cautiously move towards it being ready to parry a laser. When you get close enough a cutscene plays where you observe the guardian expecting it to turn on.... but it just... doesn't. Link starts to walk away when you hear the gloom hands theme start playing. You turn around to see a single hand enter the guardian.
Suddenly multiple hands rise out from under the guardian lifting it up from the ground. As you watch in terror as the guardian sputters back to life, eye glowing and targeting you.
This music starts playing and on the gloom hands, the guardian comes running at you like the world's scariest spider. As you try to come up with a game plan whilst running away one of the hands lifts up and grabs you holding you in place as the guardian revs up a laser. And if you don't escape in time.... well, you know what happens.
When you finally beat it the room goes quiet. And you realize... wait, doesn't gloom hands have a second phase? Boom! Phantom Ganon wearing ancient armor shows up wielding an ancient blade with sheikah markings that still say his mother's names.
He functions mostly the same as regular phantom Ganon except now he's tankier and can fire lasers at you. And for those who play with a master mode mod (or if you have a future master mode esc file) then when you get to far P.G. shoots ancient arrows at you. Which is an instakill. Or for bonus points when hit with an ancient arrow your teleported to an arena surrounded by sheikah writing (idk what it would say) where you'd have to fight one of those baby guardians from the tests of strength. Upon beating baby guardian, a portal would appear letting you get back to the main battle.
When you beat phantom Ganon you get all the ancient armor (max upgraded already) mostly to fit with the Devine beast helms, but I'm sure someone could find a good buff for it to make it worth while. You also get the master cycle back as well as some ancient blades.
And a part that most people wouldn't think of that I would add, is that if you take a picture of either form, then you can get a statue made for kilton
The Guardians give me more PTSD than the hands do , at least with the hands all i have to do is climb to a high surface and they poof away
holy shit this is actually terrifying
but this is also mixed perfectly and the two themes go together really well
thanks for making this monstrosity💀
This is the perfect opportunity for Nintendo to make the most terrifying bossfight in video game history
that just activated my FLIGHT instinct from the first note
not fighting whatever THAT thing is
THIS IS SICK- They're so different, yet they work so well together! I never would have thought of doing this.
