    I personally like the “dead dad” ending. Because he would have been SO CLOSE to being able to at least START making it up to his daughter, and yet, he’d never be able to. So close, yet always out of reach. And Daisy just stepping over/on his corpse? Perfection.

    I always thought Curtis Brown left daisy because he knew he was a terrible person, and father. Now that I know the 2 Canonical endings, I believe he was killed in the basement by one of his creations. It's a sad ending, but it makes the most sense to me. What makes it even sadder is when Daisy has a breakdown, wondering why he left her, because he didn't leave her. His remains are still in the basement.

    I'm 52 yrs old, I've been into ARGs since I played the Blair Witch one as it was happening in real time.
    Daisy Brown touched me like very few things ever have in my life. ❤️
    It came at the perfect time for me (my extremely absent, abusive, talented Dad had just died after a horrible illness & sucking me back into contact with him after many yrs of staying the hell away for my own mental health)
    The story gave me feels like I can't describe.

      @dormie basne
      exactly!! I used to watch the (pretty well known) ghost cam in a library & one that a girl had set up in her (IIRC) NYC apartment w cams in a couple old trunks & inside the platform her bed was set up on bc those places seemed to have the most activity. I don't think I ever rly saw anything but OMG was it scary & so much fun to not know what would possibly happen!!
      The Blair Witch site was so incredibly interactive, it was CRAZY!! I don't think any of us who played had ever experienced anything like that before.
      Once the guys realized we were obsessively combing thru EVERYTHING, they started doing stuff like adding messages into the HTML (common now but back then, it was mind blowing!!)& making the ARG story as we went along. We knew it wasn't 'real' but it was so much fun & genuinely creepy.
      I made an 'ate my balls' fan page (LOL it was a thing back then)
      en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ate_my_balls
      with all the names of the producers/cast/directors & they sent me an autographed poster!!
      Daisy Brown tho hmmmm idk how to explain it exactly. So many of the first videos were stuff I watched anyway like succulent plant videos, cooking tutorials, nail art, cosmetics videos & when I looked at her subscriptions, I subbed to many of the same channels she did so getting sucked in was EASY for me, not to mention the incredibly compelling story she was weaving little by little. I've messed around with many ARGs (the AI movie one was probably the biggest bc I missed out on the Batman one where they sent ppl stuff like cakes with phones in them & crazy shit like that) but Daisy's story touched me like nothing else ever has & I'm a huge media consumer: books, movies, music, magazines, internet. Literally only one other thing has ever done that for me: the book CRUDDY by Lynda Barry. If u can find it, I can't rec it highly enough. It's amazing!!!
      There were a few times where I legit wondered if Daisy was a real person with a severe mental illness & was making these videos bc she truly thought Alan was real or what. Jules acting was EFFORTLESS & so genuine, you couldn't help yourself getting wrapped up in it.
      (Also, bc I'm hard of hearing, I was watching w the CC on from the beginning so I was getting that other level of the story right off the bat. I think that might have helped with the immersion)
      I know I was particularly emotionally vulnerable at the time but I've watched the whole series again several times & there's so much you can get from it on so many levels. It speaks to so many issues in such a real way.
      I was afraid for a while that it would end with Daisy committing suicide & I think my heart would have broken if that happened. I'm so glad it didn't.
      I could talk about the series all day but I should go do my dishes lol.
      Jules, if u read this, I'm not a crazy fan, just a crazy fan LOL. & Thank you again. Yr artwork helped me thru a very shitty time in my life💚👾💚

    I discovered daisy brown when I was fairly young, i had always loves creepy and macabre themes and imagery (my favorite author has always shifted between lovecraft and edgar allen poe since I was probably younger than 8?). I think i found your series through Night Mind's video on it in 2018 and had always felt a sort of connection to it. I had always knew to some extent that myself and my family werent exactly normal, and while im happy to say that its better than the majority; I had to grow up pretty fast, looking back I wish i had more time to just be a child.
    When I found Daisy Brown i believe I had been diagnosed with depression for about 3 years despite only being 11-10 years old. At the time I was coming to terms with the fact I would never be a normal kid without really knowing what that even meant.
    Daisy Brown helped me feel like I wasn't alone. I'm not even sure how. But i remember seeing it and despite being a little scared of the creature designs, I remember relating to Daisy in a way I don't think I could ever concisely describe.

      @Ty The Great it is. Literally every Olympian, famous musician, artist, world record holder etc (essentially anyone considered impressive by any reasonable metric) invested an atypical amount of time into developing their impressive skill or talent. Regardless of rate or improvement over time or the capacity to carry over other skills which are still factors in talent, the necessary time investment itself is part of what makes feats of skills impressive. A mediocre drawing on someone's first try is less impressive than a great one after years of practice, even if it would take a while for some other person to reach that level of mediocrity.

    i watched your videos back when they were coming out in 2017, with my then girlfriend who was totally into them. i was terrified of alan, i thought he was so creepy and real. now, at age 19, (then 15/16) i watched it again and it really resonated with me. i loved it and it really did show how much you were going through and how much you grew. now it really resonates with me because im facing (as you did) more adult themes of abuse from family members like daisy has. just like daisy, i hit my abusive parent because i was cornered. its so relevant to me that its scary in this way instead of the creepy way it was to me before. alan, for me, symbolizes the relationship i had with my toxic parent, how i nurtured it and begged it to be kind to me and how even though i did everything i could i would never recieve the unconditional love and acceptance i desired and really deserved. thank you so much for making this. i want you to know that i never actually had to suspend my disbelief during my first watch because it was so real and guttural. the was alan and you interacted and the people you had to help you really helped this not only be brung to life in a realty sense, but also an artistic sense. this reminds me of the painting of saturn devours his son, where the painter was going through a lot and it came out of him, but he hid it. you were going through a lot and this came out of you, but you showed it to the world and the world loved it! im ever so proud of your growth and i am a die hard fan of yours! im sending love and support!

  • @optikaros

    i honestly think your "sad" ending for the father is better than what i concluded, which was that he committed suicide from being so overwhelmed at not being able to create his wife and instead these horrific monsters, and left the tape there as a suicide note. he didnt want to completely leave her, so he left part of his dna in alan as a "rebirth" to be better to her, which obviously didnt work.
    if i had to choose i would go with him being killed by his monsters rather than him leaving, but i'm sticking to my version because it makes me understand the narrative that i see better.
    i loved alan's death though, there's something funny about thinking about him exploding

    I first started getting into online horror in 2021 when I was doing late night crunch sessions for months on end for a grueling job (I'm a 3D artist). When I did personal art in my few precious moments of spare time, I was just drawing for validation online. I was isolated and sick and in a bad relationship and hating life. That summer, I came upon Daisy Brown and subsequently this video, and both rattled me far more than I was prepared for.
    I remember sobbing the first time I watched this video as you discussed the reasons you kept creating. I realized how much effort I was putting into things that didn't have a true and passionate reason behind them. I have no doubt that your words, both through this video and the series, played a huge role in me turning my life around after that. I deleted my social media, took a medical leave from work, got out of that relationship, started making art and stories for myself again. Not everything's perfect, but it's so much better than it was, and I'm eternally grateful that Daisy Brown exists for all it did to inspire and connect with me during one of the worst times in my life. Thanks so much for making it and sharing it with the world.

I myself being an aspiring artist wanted and still want to make something like it and its very existence continues to motivate me to this day.
    It helped me come to terms with some negative things in my past and continues to inspire compassion and wonder in me to this day. I've created fanart and likely will continue to do so for a very long time of Daisy and Lithop who gave me mother/daughter feelings.

    An Abusive relationship that you feel like you can’t let go , that it’s your fault , that you need the person the hurts you for no reason
    The monsters we create inside our own head ,the haunt ourselves , specially at night like sleep paralysis and self doubt
    The depression the we refuse to accept that is there , or choose to live with but not fight it , the depression that sucks all the life from our life .
    I have the 2 sometimes and the 3 e everyday.
