The scariest thing in this game is when a Wickerbottom joins the server and starts using the lunar grimoire making it impossible to get the shadow atrium.
I remember when I played this years ago, when the generator went out and so did my flashlight… I said to myself ‘nope, not turning on the flashlight.’ And Bill just kept asking who was there in the darkness until the game ended. Never played it again after that and after seeing what happens when you turn the flashlight back on? Yep, I’m glad I never saw that horror the first time or I would have had a heart attack. lol
There... isn't any proof that this is Constant? Like, sure, you die in the dark, but we were shown that shadows can very easily go into real world. And as you said yourself - one of the notes suggests that it's the screecher that kills you. Map having the same style proves nothing.
On top of this, unless I misunderstood, there is no concrete proof who you play as in the screecher mod. It is never confirmed that you play as Bill. Again, I could be wrong and just missed something, but yeah, it is never confirmed to be in the Constant. My theory of it is that part of the Constant or another similar dimension leaked into the "real world" at Pillet Creek.
@@aid3n910 my theory, wagstaff bringer owl, happens same stuff that happent with webber (because when you bring things from constant they are kinda... unstable?)but in form of adult man and much worse personally
I wanted to bring this up as a fun fact near the end aswell but didn’t want to add too much bloat to the video Maybe our constants version of the screecher is the thunderbird, and this constants thunderbird turned into the screecher 🤔
I actually loved theory that this thing is what Wilson accidentally(or maybe not accidentally) created when he was on shadow throne. I know it doesn't really add up all that much, but still it's cool concept to think that Wilson had some impact on the world when he was on shadow throne.
I 100% know the mod doesn’t take place in the constant since helicopters don’t exist in the constant neither were helicopters invented in the time period don’t starve takes place and while radios do exist there aren’t any radio frequencies also why would there be a professional map for the constant like it was some nature preserve. and while the mod was made by klei it was made for a 2013 horror mod contest and probably was made to show off what modding was capable of
My theory is that when Wilson took over the Nightmare throne he tried to make a way to leave the Constant. He would fail and create an Island somewhere in the Constant and in the real world. A some sort of inbetween of the two, where Wilson could have tried to make his own version of the Pigman/ Merm based on a human. He failed and created a monster that would "Go for the eyes" it would be considered hideus by Wilson, thus making it enraged when stared at, because of its creators disgust when looking at it. He sucseeded but never knew it, a place connected to the real world, with a beast too deadly to let annyone leave or enter the Constant.
I remember turning this mod on unknowingly one time and returning to my computer, confused, thinking I downloaded a 1st pov mod or something, then ALT F4'ing once I saw the first jumpscare
9:55 it should be noted they they aren't who survived, merely who was found vs is currently missing as only 3 were found with just 2 making it out, everyone else is either dead or missing
When i was in middle school, i sneek in to my brothers laptop to play don't stave, I did not now how to start a new game NOR how to read english at that time, I wne to this horror mod and got traumatized LOL. and I still did not told my brother after YEARS later so he doesn't know.
Why not? Klei made the mod themselves, and it has some noticable ties to our constant (night monster, same design) Sure, its certainly not OUR version of the constant, otherwise this game really would be a horror game, but that doesn’t mean it can’t be another version of the constant entirely with different rules. Plus, klei left too much lore here for me not to atleast make a deep dive video :P
@@polarlotus this mod might be a mirror of the constant instead , i mean it looks like the constant but it s not the constant itself , u know . like seeing urself in the mirror , what u see in the mirror is not you , it s a representation of you , and closing the light and starring at it makes your mind hallucinate and see it distorted and horrific. sure this own thing might exists in the constant , but not looking like this , this thing is more alike to the new shadow rift monster that posesses spiders , bunny man and even players , i mean a lot of the things in that mod got added eventually in don t start together , for example the flash light under the form of that mechanism that winona makes , same with the generator , but looks different , chairs also , they look different from the mod , perhaps the mod was a reflection of the future of the constant , annnd it starts to indicate that the future of the constant and our current survivors is... very very grim
@@polarlotus I like your theory, I think it's a cool theory to think about, but I personally disagree with it. The icons on the map are probably just reused from the main game, and the night monster is probably just a way to punish the player for being too slow or for not interacting with the set pieces. Plus, there are no mentions of the constant in any part of the mod, there's a paper in the mod that says they were camping on a place called Pillet Creek. I also think the multiverse theory is a bit far fetched, cuz there are no mentions of that in ds or dst, and also, if there are infinite constants with diferent rules, then you could argue that any world in fiction is a constant with completely different rules. I also think if the mod was canon, or important to the lore, Klei would talk more about it, this mod was also made for a Halloween mod contest that they hosted in 2013. Like I said earlier, I like your theory and I think it's fun to think about and do deep dives on stuff like this, but I personally disagree with it, this is just my opinion.
@@konstralit2105He's not wrong though. Besides, with Termina and the original F&H getting more fame recently (Especially with that Connor guy that plays with Iron mouse streaming a while playthrough), it's even starting to get referenced a lot by other games.
i know im late to this and all but i always thought this version of the constant was from before MaxWell got sucked there and take over, so the darkness itself is untamed and possess anyone whos stay in the darkness, since if i recalled correctly maxwell did pretty much built the constant to the state it currently is, which would also change the way darkness act
This video was actually an experimental video for me, its the first video I released early for members, something that im going to experiment more with in the future!
What's your basis that this is on the constant other than it uses the same assets? Because it seems more likely it's just a fun mod completely outside of the don't starve universe
Where’s your deep dive video that was supposed to be linked in the description? It’s not really an issue but it feels weird to not link it after saying you would.
i always jokingly said that this is where you get sent if your name doesn't start with a W. Cool to see someone analyze this creepy mod
Maxwell:
William Carter in don't starve lore is his name before he changes it in an attempt to leave his old life behind
There's also the fact that the game files call the playable version of Maxwell Waxwell
Never knew that one, thats quite funny
@@Zxr-r6q his real name is William tho.
The scariest thing in this game is when a Wickerbottom joins the server and starts using the lunar grimoire making it impossible to get the shadow atrium.
the ban button exists though
pretty expensive though...
not to mention time consuming...
They rush the archives and take the gem from there.

It's theory crafting.
and the time that don't starve is set in doesn't have modern flashlights like this mod.
@@macyk113 but Wagstaff is very much alive and well?
The screecher's head looks like a The thunder bird from Hamlet.
I don't know it's real name of the bird.
I wanted to bring this up as a fun fact near the end aswell but didn’t want to add too much bloat to the video
Maybe our constants version of the screecher is the thunderbird, and this constants thunderbird turned into the screecher 🤔
@@polarlotus or like webber. the thunder bird fused with an adult man in some way.

Finaly a smart person. But this can be a future for upcoming events.
The mod is set in the 80's... after the events of the game...
@@sentane8031 in 2013 most of the lore didn’t exist yet

You know the more I think about it the more I realize that this monstrosity does seem very "wilson"..
FYI, This was supposed to be my halloween special video, BUT! I had so much fun editing it that I decided to release it early, enjoy!
If I was in this world, knowing my luck I would fucking die.
I REMEMBER THIS WHEN I WAS IN MIDDLE SCHOOL. Genuinely scared the shit out of me back then. Now I think its a super cool monster
"perhaps darkness IS the spirit" what an ominous fucking sentence
TMA vibes (episode 86 specifically)
This scared the shit out of me when I was little
The Screecher mod is unironically how i found out dont starve existed
Same!
So, could you say that it's Don't Stare?
KLEEEI, DROP THE SCREECHER 2 AND MY LIFE IS YOURS

well also could be that charlie went got into the constant take over the darkness and got rid of those creatures

It wasnt in constant. You can hear helicopter.
Babe wake up new vid just dropped
Cool video! You don't see too much content for don't starve UA-cam. Your video was a pleasure to watch!
alternate ending. The main character closes their eyes or looks down.
I wish Klein made more interesting mods like this one
POLAR
I hope your having a fun making content, I really do enjoy what you make :)
Your the GOAT polar
No YOUR THE GOAT
holy shit , the last time i remember anyone talking about this was all the way back when markiplier played this game
1:04 I wish it was
I've been looking at any content about Screecher few weeks ago but sadly didn't find anything so thanks for the video
never search up "don't starve creepypasta"
nobody's talking about how well the camera works and feels like a don't starve prototype of some sorts
Maybe the screecher itself is just the head and it latches on to its defaced victims heads to control their bodies? Like a headcrab.
4:24 left for dead 2 reference
I rememeber trying to play The Screecher back when i was like 12, and i failed
I think the mod would be more fun as a hunting game instead of whatever this is
6:30 I am sorry but GYAAAAATTT
Game is game…
Fitting i saw this as a kid on October and now i see it again many many years later.
Sooo charlie try to kill us to not becoming an owl man?
This mod was peak, if it became its own thing that wouldve been fun
I remember Markiplier playing through this and being terrified of it back in the old days.

@@oritimesthree thank you! That means a lot to me :)
