Dude after all these years it still breaks my heart. Imagine how the little boy must have felt, when he woke up from a nice nap beside his best friend, and there's a rotting corpse of said best friend right where she was sitting
@@hyperwolfiemegadash4317 It's because he's the only child of their family. Young children who don't have any siblings tend to make up imaginary friends. Disney/Pixar's Inside Out does this too.
Stop trying to be smart you probably just went on to google and searched imaginary friend real name or something Edit: this was my idiot self 2 years ago. I’m better now, just had a couple crazy beliefs, probably still do
I seriously go back to this every October and it ALWAYS hits just as hard as when I first watched it. I feel like there’s always new details I pick up on each time I watch, god this animation is incredible
What makes the revelation ending even worse is the fact that she didn't die instantly. She might have stayed on the same spot waiting for help cause she was bear trapped and as she waits her final meal were candies, the last one she ate was the one with that wrapper that says you found me
Eu não sei o ingles por completo então vou falar em portugues mesmo Você esta serto,ela pode ter ficado presa em uma armadilha de urso( que é mostrado a marca na perna esquerda dela)e ter se arrastado até aquela arvore,e ter ficado lá até a morte(porque é mostrado o corpo dela estar pertubadoramente intacto,com as larvas se alimentando dela)e o fato dela não conseguir doces mesmo recebendo do garoto mostra isso que você falou ,ela se alimentou com o que tinha(ou seja,doces) e o que sobrou foi aquela na qual você mencionou"you found me", e se você continuar lendo outros comentarios,vai achar mais detalhes do que deveria E sei que paresso um maniaco falando isso,mas achei fofo essa historia toda.
At the end, you can see how the dead child’s body is still in the rotting process. If we’re getting scientific here, the body was left in a forest which is usually somewhat moist and lush. In this climate and environment, bodies take only about 3 weeks or so to decompose. In the flashback to the previous Halloween, they were still alive. That child died very recently.
At 7:56 you can see there’s a bear trap on her foot, when the flashlight hits her. Also, it was “last halloween” when he was beat up and first met her (without his mom there) and she first got the “you found me” note with him. He met her when she was alive, but I think the story was she died later that night last halloween (regardless of actual rot time). I mean, why else would she have died in that costume?
She was no imaginary friend she was a spirit that wanted to show the kid the truth she wanted to show him where her body was so they could finally meet
I think she was leading him to her dead body so that someone could find her and she could finally rest easy. Which is why in the end when they were both eating candy by the tree, she finally had a smile on her face. Or she knew someone would come look for the boy, so they could give her a proper burial and she could finally rest.
Everyone here saying how sad they are from the ending But I think its actually kinda wholesome that the girl came back as a ghost to spend halloween with her only friend again
Sounds like both to me, she proved herself real AND lead them to her body. NOW, she actually gets a final resting place. She's finally able to, as a restless spirit to get some peace.
Pretty sure she held the same wrapper with the “You found me” she was given last Halloween in 2:04, which implies she was actually alive that time and all the other times they were together were imaginary
This story gets drastically more sad when you realize just how much of a torturous death that would've been. Especially for a little girl who knew so little.
@@bijal341 @Troublemaker the girl was long dead before they play together. So basically the time they spend together all this time was just in the male kid's mind. Or we could say he's with the girl's ghost/soul all this time. She probably got bear trapped there. As she was slowly dying waiting for help. Her last meal was a candy with the note you found me. As her corpse still holds the note. The female kid led him to where she is so they can find her body. Sorry if my english is bad. Im not an english native speaker. + i know it's just animation but this really broke my heart when you think about the torturous she went through.i mean she's just a kid.
This is one of the videos I come back to every Halloween, truly makes me miss trick or treating, didn't actually have friends who went with me so I feel this personally
@@mojonel No, the one with the nail in the head died years back from a bear trap. He was having hallucinations from possibly seeing her before she died. He ended up chasing the girl with the nail in her head through the woods (it was a hallucination) and eventually sat down at the tree. But he was alive. The corpse of nail girl definetly wasn't.
It's sad to think about a little girl, bleeding and dying in the middle of nowhere and all alone. I kept going back to this animation, still making me tear up.
When the boy was touching her face to see if she was real, she lead her to the forest where her body was. Don’t you think she did that to prove she WAS real?
@@keif9447 don't worry. Mnn I was trying to say that if he can see ghosts or spirits. Would be other disease or It's completely different. I am confuse by that. Sorry, sometimes my keyboard makes mistakes because I normally speak in spanish
@@stopreplyingtomycomments7954 I'd say its more bitter if you think about the fact that someone probably killed her and left that note as some sick joke
@@DryAgedMignon that's probobly what happened, but I theorize that the girl was bitten, got infected and died that way over there, maybe the boy saw that girl in an image, and became his imagination only the actually see her later, unable to tell the difference went over there and the girl died there
The fact that she might’ve been alive for a bit before dying because if a bear trap gets caught in your leg or arm, it can break/partially amputate it. That means that she was alive, only eating off of candies to survive.
I don’t think she used to be “imaginary” I think they truly did meet “last Halloween” that’s why she has the wrapper with her, she just went missing after their meeting.
Im so confused with this storyline what understand So they met last Halloween (i think the mark may be part of her costume)(her body at the end was too fresh to be 1 year old) she was lost in the woods died under the tree then he met her spirit on the current Halloween then she led him to her body?
A neat detail is that from the boy’s pov there is no sound effects, only music, in contrast from the search party’s pov there’s ambience and talking. These could be representative of a grounded reality vs childhood ignorance and stuff
The short gives me Coraline vibes. Not because they have a similar story, but because they're creepy despite starting off innocent enough, and people are still coming up with different theories and interpretations of it years after it came out.
2024 and I still go back to this animation every halloween season. Still hits right at the kokoro the same way it did the first time I watched it. What a masterpiece. ❤
a lot of people say this is either scary, or wholesome, but i just have this general weird feeling of sadness. its like when you had an amazing friendship and its over, because of time. you remember the good times, but because of the present, they are sad.
Yesssss!!! Exactly!! When I first found this video the end made me feel all sorts of emotions! I felt sad, scared, sort of happy and more... It's just the fact that she was dead and decomposing this whole time and he was sitting next to her. And she must've been so scared as she was dying and in so much pain too. She is probably at peace now that the boy found her... 🙁
When I first watched this I was more or less a bit confused so I didn't pay no mind When I came across it in a RUclips short of a shorten version of it And all of sudden I just started crying Like right now my eyes are still wet from crying Like every times that music and replayed over and over something in me just broke and I started crying Like it's fucked up this girl was alone but what's even more fucked up was the fact that she was young And judging by the woman book kids go missing a lot Like who knows how many more kids are out there in does woods waiting to be found Only for them to do a half-ass job at it Now this girl is dead didn't get a chance on having a full life with friends family her start own family Be successful have fun in life But no some dumbass decided to be funny and put bear trap all over the place And it took this young girls life Wtf it's just ugh
I remember when I first watched this back when I was a kid and was struggling to understand what had happened. Now, as a teenager, I get it and makes me feel empty…
Since the girl's body wasn't completely bones, this means that the boy actually met her while she was still alive the Halloween prior to that Halloween. Since the girl is also still holding the same candy wrapper she got from the prior Halloween, she may have died the night they first met each other.
@@alexthecursedchild724 Her corpse was rotting, and flesh takes a little bit to Rot completely, so i think the time It takes to actually dissapear takes a while.
@@Izzy-sj3ck actually with the body being out in the open like that, different types of bugs and what not would have decomposed the skin in a few weeks leaving only the bones and hair behind
Can we take a moment to acknowledge the fact that the "You Found Me" note was real, and the very last thing she ever read? Like, this little girl was bleeding out, in pain, in the middle of the woods, all alone, and when she ate her candy, the wrapper said, "You Found Me." But no one ever did. (Until the boy) This poor baby. ;^;
I discovered this animation several years ago, back when I was a young kid, no older than 6 or perhaps 7 years. I didn't know english back then, so I lost the name of the animation for quite some time. It relies very little on dialogue so I did understand the gist of it, and it has shaped a lot of my perspective on halloween. It made me really sad all that time ago, and made me think, for a good while. I still come to it, and it still has a lot of impact in me. It's pieces like this, characteristic and emotional, that get to people the most. I hope it doesn't sound corny, but ever since I saw this, Halloween's been more of a date to think for me, about life and friends, even moreso since I stopped going out for candy. It's been a long time since I last revisited this. It had quite a big impact this time. That's a lot of text to say I just think this is a wonderful work of art. You put a lot of soul to it, and I'm absolutely sure there's a lot of people around the world who won't ever forget it. Happy Halloween (I know it's december but I still gotta say it)
The fact that the wrappers said “I found you!” and “You found me!” then he sees that he actually found her with her corpse, it’s so heart breaking for him to realize he really had found her and that she was a ghost the entire time..
Actually I don't think he ever actually found her body I think he still sees her as if she was still alive because he still looked happy not sad that she died
@@furry_child9497 he is hallucinating, he entered the domain of a beautiful sunny sky with a "flat land", even though that land was suppose to be a ditch with the tree, so he may be hallucinating the ghost all this time until he found her, he will probably freak out when he sees her dead
When he wakes up, i don't think his parents will allow him to see the dead body, they'd just post pone this news for telling it letter when he grows up
I think what I liked most was the polar opposites in their personalities. The boy was always so happy and cheerful while the girl didn't show much emotion. In the picture in the police's notebook, it looked like she was just as cheerful as the boy when she was alive, so maybe she was attached to seeing what she used to be when she was alive. Still fun to see how two people acting completely opposite of each other could have been such good friends.
It’s a curse, i once forgot mike inel and this video because i got too much of the horror. A young, innocent mind cannot even comprehend this much. The only thing i remembered was the time i didn’t watched the video fully.
She wasn’t an imaginary friend she was a ghost making a friend. This was really sad but over all the animation and story line were enjoyable, and all the extra characters were amazing and well drawn, keep up the great work!
@Anonymous If you notice, she's just like a ghost. The "You found me!" wrapper explains that only the boy can see her, and he found her. In all of the cutscenes, You can see on the girls leg, there is a bear trap mark. It seems she had wandered off and died, but we don't know that.
RUclips recommended me just now and yes, I’ve never seen this video before. This is a very sad Halloween video. Thank you RUclips. Happy Halloween in 2024.
I don’t know if I’m correct, but in the last scene we can see that the forest is dark and the police have to use flashlights and sticks to see where the bear traps are. When the girl’s spirit is walking through the forest, she is lighting the way so the boy doesn’t fall on the bear traps. I found that cute.
@@itsukisomii yeah i know that. I just wondered why its still rotting and with flies. that place is a forest, its a good area for bodies to decompose very fast.
Small detail. A lot of people believe that the first time they meet she was alive but if you look at her legs. You will see the mark of the bear trap! Comparing it to the last shot with her corpse and the closed bear trap on the side, it should be the right leg. Came back here to this animation after years now. Glad to see more people finding it too!
The problem here is what day the girl died? Cuz if last year, the body would have been decomposed but as you can see, it's not. And the picture of her missing case, she's wearing the Halloween costume. So to speculate, the girl died between the first day of Halloween and the day before Halloween started. She went out to show her costume and ended up at the barricade with a DANGER sign. She got curious so she went in and regretted it afterward. She got chased by some wild animal and luckily got away with some bruises but she accidentally stepped onto a bear trap and can't stand anymore so she leans on the tree and waited to be found. How tragic
All the little details… the tooth marks on her leg at the beginning, the unchanging costume, the literal cobwebs in her bucket, they’re all so good! The fact that they really could have been great friends is absolutely heartbreaking tho.
god the scene where she gets mad at the bullies but he guides her to a different location hurts me so much because she wants to hurt the kids who made fun of him because she's his friend but she's also dead this story is so goddamn amazing
The reason the kids got mad is because he was carelessly running and didn't notice the other kids walking, what's worse is when he introduced his friend (the girl) but thinks he's lying because they can't see the girl cause she's only a spirit
Explanation: The boy was lonely, vulnerable, and young being a perfect target for a spirit to show itself too. The first year they met, it is visible on the girls leg that there is teeth marks from the metal bear traps, where she unfortunately lost her life to one. Throughout the whole video, she is trying to lure him into finding her body, however she finds it no better time to do so when he finds out that she could possibly be fake, and played out from his mind, once she makes herself to the metal fencing and through, she descends into the woods in a swiftly manner, knowing where every bear trap is and knowing he’d follow closely behind so he wouldn’t lose her in the woods, mainly for his safety but most importantly to find her body. Once he meets her at the tree, they both share another piece of candy together, sadly that will be their last. He had found her. Where she had passed due to the trap, where she was once lonely and vulnerable, and sadly where she bled out to death. It is seen once the search party found the boy and now, the girl laying up against the tree beside him, she is badly decomposed, and upon her lap laid the candy note “you found me” where a year prior she had ate her last piece of candy and died shortly after, Reason why whenever they shared candy together, it always read the same thing. When the women officer notices the dead remains of the child, she looks through her book where she notices that the girl looks like the one who went missing a year prior on Halloween day. Thus the boy finding the girls remains, letting her pass on freely, and the search party that could never find her can now properly give the girl a funeral and bring her family closure for her disappearance. This is very sad, yet so beautiful. Hope this cleared up some confusion
@@Nmerejilla she gets candies from him multiple times, and it looks like he’s the only one who can actually touch her. she only gets notes that say “you found me”, which elude to her last meals message
wait, I think I figured something out, if you look at the girls basket it has a shape that looks like a stomach or broken heart, if it's a stomach then that would mean that she was starving at home because the basket is always empty which would mean that she ran away from home because she was starving and found a piece of candy on the ground, ran into the forest and got trapped by bear trap and died of hunger after eating the piece of candy and then died of starvation because she was already starving beforehand, if it's a broken heart then that would mean that there were problems at home which caused her to run away into the forest where she died or it's both which would mean that her parents were abusive which is why she was starving
Well I don't think she's a imaginary friend because they found her dead so it looks like the boy could ghosts but only on Halloween night until the night had end they go back to the where they had die
The first time I saw the ending I was genuinely disturbed, I had thought it was a simple story about two friends on Halloween but one of them wasn’t being given any candy, I never expected it to be about a spirit helping one of her old friends to find her body so she could be put to rest
I made my main oc based off this, her names Corruption and only somebody called Iris can actually see her. Everybody acts like they also see her but shes not there at all.
I still can't imagine how the little girl must have felt after getting injured by the bear trap. She must have waited and waited for someone to find her, the note from the candy in her hands must have been the last meal she ever ate... Until she finally passes on from her wounds or hunger. Ahhgh, this is just so sad for a child to bear. She even looked so happy on her picture from the policewoman's missing files. At least she was finally found, and can now rest in peace. Awesome work! I really felt a lot of emotions from watching this.
She was probably lonely for a whole year, and then when the time comes (Halloween) she picked him to help her to find her body, at the end, she made a last friend before going to the afterlife and knowing that her family find her body. Sorry I'm not really good at English
@@Masterneedshelp1010 Yeah. The whole time they were trick or treating, you can notice that most adults gave candy to the boy but seemed to disregard the girl. She was already dead before she even met the boy. The boy was also diagnosed with having an Imaginary friend by the doctor. The girl sticked with him because he was the only one who can see and acknowledge her existence. Eventually leading to the discovery of her body.
@@matloxr7144 I think another twist is considering the last time they were seen it could suggest that they were killed by their parents. Still adore this animation though
This should make you sad really cuz she died in the last Halloween seen but she promised the to come back and she didn't break her promise that at least what I understand from it
@@bearwithme9433 I can't believe I am saying this but you gotta point in that ;-; still I want to believe that when they met she promised to come back to visit next year but cuz she died she couldn't so she just came back as a ghost idk man that what I want to believe lol
I think my theory here is that she got into an argument with her family, it was said in the book of the woman she was last seen with her family, she then ran off to the woods because maybe that was her happy place, but then she did not realize that people there put bear traps all over the place, so she accidentally stepped on one and died of blood loss. Nobody even bothered looking for her, unlike the boy's mother who even go as far as going into the woods full of bear traps, it would have made sense why the little girl was still not found. Her parents did not love her like the boy. It's sad.
Alright so I get that she wanted someone to find her decaying body but something still ticks me off at 6:06 was she hoping him to step in one of the bare traps hoping that he whould die and then they whould be ghost together?
I watched this video back when i was 12, this made me cry now and then, but i still can't get enough of the ending and still hoping that someday they'll make a sequel but with the good ending 😥
Kid: has mental breakdown because their friend is "imaginary" me: *sadness* *later finds out that the girl was a ghost to lead the boy to her dead body so she can finally rest in peace* Me: *S A D N E S S*
imagine being a little child, going into the woods, getting trapped in a bear trap, and waiting there for probably years while slowly rotting to death, i cant imagine the misery that child has went through.
And the last thing you do is eat a candy with the phrase you found me on it. You cling to the hope that you will be found but it only happens after you are already dead
9th time and 9th time I recommend this video annually. I have watched this short film for 9 years🥹. I watch this every Halloween. Always so sad and always my favorite, I cry to it alot too. It has a big place in my heart. ❤❤❤💔💔
Since 2019, RUclips recommended me to watch this video during Halloween time, and I never got motivated to watch it, but now this Halloween 2024 I did it, and I didn't think it would have that ending.
After all darkness started from Cute! When someone loves to be in the dark?That means they are scared of what there would be in the light! that's me lol
Came back to see this animation again after 6 yrs, watching it again made me tear up again. Seeing them together was nice but the ending always gets me.
Damn. This hits hard. The whole imaginary friend thing was sad enough, but finding out she was actually a ghost who was just chilling with her living friend on halloween, then decided to lead him to her body to prove that she was real had me so close to crying. The artstyle and innocent music also made this way sadder than it should be.
@@natural7179 I'm pretty sure, she herself was alr a ghost and set free, but wanted people to know where she was, hence she wanted her friend to lead him to her
Re-watchin this a year later and... Jesus, I can imagine the aftermath when they show her photo and ask him "Is this the friend you were talking about?" He'd be like, "YEAH! That's her! I told you she's real!" Then they all look at eachother, some with tears in their eyes whe the boy is confused. It wasn't until years later, when he randomly asks his parents about this "Imaginary friend" when they tell him the full story of the event... Now he knows why he hasn't seen her since they had candy under the tree... He didn't "grow out of a phase"... she passed on because... ... He *found her*
This needs more likes. Also, if you think about it, the kid is likely well into his teens by now. Wonder if he would still be alone or have friends by then.
@@hitsugatatsuro9978 I hope he lives a good life, giving happiness and hope to those who need it, just like he did with the girl. Maybe he'd tell the story to friends every Halloween night, cuz wrather they believe him or not, it's still a good story. Then, when he finally passes away from old age, he sees a familiar girl, with a screw headband, sitting under a familiar tree. The elderly man plops down, sitting next to her, and she gives him a candy... He hugs the girl, leaving her stunned, as he cried, "I missed you..." She hugs back, not saying anything. When they part from the embrace, they unwrap their candy, and pop it in their mouths, smiling as they chew on the candy in eachothers' company... The man looks at the wraper, and it read- "I missed you too" With that, the girl asks the man if he'd like to play. Without hesitation, the man agreed. As he stood to run after the girl, he was no longer an old elderly man in the hospital gown he died in, but the little boy in his costume who went trick or treating with her all those years ago... ... HOLLY SHIT I DID IT AGAIN I'M SORRY 😅 I just got the idea and wanted to share it but now it feels like I wrote a sequel fanfic nobody asked for. But that's how I imagine it... lemme know what u think tho. Also- thank you ☺
@@skeletonwarrior9393 It's shown that he's resting peacefully when they find him. The bear trap was simply a device to raise tension. I've watched that final scene several times and can find no evidence of injury.
This animation was a part of my childhood. Rewatching it again brings back so much nostalgia. I still love this animation till this day. I’ll never forget about it.
She's not a imaginary friend, he just saw her soul, and then found her dead body.

Think they were friends when she was alive?
@@gavinl3806 I think he met her while she was still alive. Not sure good question tho, but maybe he did see her soul and she led him to her dead body.

Kinda copied

Sounds like both to me, she proved herself real AND lead them to her body. NOW, she actually gets a final resting place. She's finally able to, as a restless spirit to get some peace.

obvioulsy
What really got me in this, is the fact is she probably realized she was gonna die so she ate one last candy before dying
Ye same
But apparently the body says no though
And the story too HAHAHAHAHHA
Pretty sure she held the same wrapper with the “You found me” she was given last Halloween in 2:04, which implies she was actually alive that time and all the other times they were together were imaginary
@@steelspeedy4513 Idk on the last Halloween she has marks over her leg (the bear trap) so I think she was a spirit the entire time
This story gets drastically more sad when you realize just how much of a torturous death that would've been. Especially for a little girl who knew so little.
Yea. It makes me so sad. She either bled to death or starved to death. Both sound terrifying. Ik it's just an animation, but I feel so sad for her.
@@shrishri5029 ikr? I never felt sad for Things in animation but this story made it so Heart shattering as she is just a child and had Painful death
Pls explain the story
@@bijal341The boy’s “imaginary” friend is the girl’s corpse
@@bijal341 @Troublemaker the girl was long dead before they play together. So basically the time they spend together all this time was just in the male kid's mind. Or we could say he's with the girl's ghost/soul all this time.
She probably got bear trapped there. As she was slowly dying waiting for help. Her last meal was a candy with the note you found me. As her corpse still holds the note.
The female kid led him to where she is so they can find her body.

anohana flashbacks~
Yes i never knew that😭
The fact that she might’ve been alive for a bit before dying because if a bear trap gets caught in your leg or arm, it can break/partially amputate it. That means that she was alive, only eating off of candies to survive.
😢😢😢😢😢 that brake my heart even more
I don’t think she used to be “imaginary” I think they truly did meet “last Halloween” that’s why she has the wrapper with her, she just went missing after their meeting.
she has the mark on her leg when it shows they first met... sadly she has always been a spirit to him 🥺

2024 and I still go back to this animation every halloween season. Still hits right at the kokoro the same way it did the first time I watched it. What a masterpiece. ❤
a lot of people say this is either scary, or wholesome, but i just have this general weird feeling of sadness. its like when you had an amazing friendship and its over, because of time. you remember the good times, but because of the present, they are sad.
Yesssss!!! Exactly!! When I first found this video the end made me feel all sorts of emotions! I felt sad, scared, sort of happy and more...
It's just the fact that she was dead and decomposing this whole time and he was sitting next to her.
And she must've been so scared as she was dying and in so much pain too. She is probably at peace now that the boy found her... 🙁
When I first watched this I was more or less a bit confused so I didn't pay no mind
When I came across it in a RUclips short of a shorten version of it
And all of sudden I just started crying
Like right now my eyes are still wet from crying
Like every times that music and replayed over and over something in me just broke and I started crying
Like it's fucked up this girl was alone but what's even more fucked up was the fact that she was young
And judging by the woman book kids go missing a lot
Like who knows how many more kids are out there in does woods waiting to be found
Only for them to do a half-ass job at it
Now this girl is dead didn't get a chance on having a full life with friends family her start own family

Since the girl's body wasn't completely bones, this means that the boy actually met her while she was still alive the Halloween prior to that Halloween. Since the girl is also still holding the same candy wrapper she got from the prior Halloween, she may have died the night they first met each other.

Dude I saw this two years ago and I still love this mini film
I discovered this animation several years ago, back when I was a young kid, no older than 6 or perhaps 7 years. I didn't know english back then, so I lost the name of the animation for quite some time. It relies very little on dialogue so I did understand the gist of it, and it has shaped a lot of my perspective on halloween. It made me really sad all that time ago, and made me think, for a good while. I still come to it, and it still has a lot of impact in me. It's pieces like this, characteristic and emotional, that get to people the most. I hope it doesn't sound corny, but ever since I saw this, Halloween's been more of a date to think for me, about life and friends, even moreso since I stopped going out for candy. It's been a long time since I last revisited this.
It had quite a big impact this time.
That's a lot of text to say I just think this is a wonderful work of art. You put a lot of soul to it, and I'm absolutely sure there's a lot of people around the world who won't ever forget it. Happy Halloween (I know it's december but I still gotta say it)

The fact that the wrappers said “I found you!” and “You found me!” then he sees that he actually found her with her corpse, it’s so heart breaking for him to realize he really had found her and that she was a ghost the entire time..
Actually I don't think he ever actually found her body I think he still sees her as if she was still alive because he still looked happy not sad that she died
Oh I didn’t notice that-
@@furry_child9497 he is hallucinating, he entered the domain of a beautiful sunny sky with a "flat land", even though that land was suppose to be a ditch with the tree, so he may be hallucinating the ghost all this time until he found her, he will probably freak out when he sees her dead
I don't think he realized she was dead. He will have to be told once they are able to safely get down and rescue him.
When he wakes up, i don't think his parents will allow him to see the dead body, they'd just post pone this news for telling it letter when he grows up
Another Halloween and I can't forget this video
Hi
I think what I liked most was the polar opposites in their personalities. The boy was always so happy and cheerful while the girl didn't show much emotion. In the picture in the police's notebook, it looked like she was just as cheerful as the boy when she was alive, so maybe she was attached to seeing what she used to be when she was alive. Still fun to see how two people acting completely opposite of each other could have been such good friends.
Literally most popular dynamic in literature since it exists.

RUclips recommended me just now and yes, I’ve never seen this video before. This is a very sad Halloween video. Thank you RUclips. Happy Halloween in 2024.
I don’t know if I’m correct, but in the last scene we can see that the forest is dark and the police have to use flashlights and sticks to see where the bear traps are.
When the girl’s spirit is walking through the forest, she is lighting the way so the boy doesn’t fall on the bear traps. I found that cute.

@@whyareugae3372 she died a year ago thats why the body is still there

@@whyareugae3372 youre right,, the body would've been pretty much gone. the animation just isn't scientifically accurate
Small detail. A lot of people believe that the first time they meet she was alive but if you look at her legs. You will see the mark of the bear trap! Comparing it to the last shot with her corpse and the closed bear trap on the side, it should be the right leg. Came back here to this animation after years now. Glad to see more people finding it too!
It was on her left leg
It was one her left leg
It was left, but amazing discovery!
I didn't notice that
The problem here is what day the girl died? Cuz if last year, the body would have been decomposed but as you can see, it's not. And the picture of her missing case, she's wearing the Halloween costume. So to speculate, the girl died between the first day of Halloween and the day before Halloween started. She went out to show her costume and ended up at the barricade with a DANGER sign. She got curious so she went in and regretted it afterward. She got chased by some wild animal and luckily got away with some bruises but she accidentally stepped onto a bear trap and can't stand anymore so she leans on the tree and waited to be found. How tragic
All the little details… the tooth marks on her leg at the beginning, the unchanging costume, the literal cobwebs in her bucket, they’re all so good!
The fact that they really could have been great friends is absolutely heartbreaking tho.

Gotta leave the 666 yk
Explanation: The boy was lonely, vulnerable, and young being a perfect target for a spirit to show itself too. The first year they met, it is visible on the girls leg that there is teeth marks from the metal bear traps, where she unfortunately lost her life to one. Throughout the whole video, she is trying to lure him into finding her body, however she finds it no better time to do so when he finds out that she could possibly be fake, and played out from his mind, once she makes herself to the metal fencing and through, she descends into the woods in a swiftly manner, knowing where every bear trap is and knowing he’d follow closely behind so he wouldn’t lose her in the woods, mainly for his safety but most importantly to find her body. Once he meets her at the tree, they both share another piece of candy together, sadly that will be their last. He had found her. Where she had passed due to the trap, where she was once lonely and vulnerable, and sadly where she bled out to death. It is seen once the search party found the boy and now, the girl laying up against the tree beside him, she is badly decomposed, and upon her lap laid the candy note “you found me” where a year prior she had ate her last piece of candy and died shortly after, Reason why whenever they shared candy together, it always read the same thing. When the women officer notices the dead remains of the child, she looks through her book where she notices that the girl looks like the one who went missing a year prior on Halloween day. Thus the boy finding the girls remains, letting her pass on freely, and the search party that could never find her can now properly give the girl a funeral and bring her family closure for her disappearance.
This is very sad, yet so beautiful. Hope this cleared up some confusion
This very much helped, thanks
Wait so if she's already dead when they first met how did she get the candy with the you found me written on it?
@@Nmerejilla she gets candies from him multiple times, and it looks like he’s the only one who can actually touch her. she only gets notes that say “you found me”, which elude to her last meals message
@@bonkers1917 niceee
this comment is underrated af
wait, I think I figured something out, if you look at the girls basket it has a shape that looks like a stomach or broken heart, if it's a stomach then that would mean that she was starving at home because the basket is always empty which would mean that she ran away from home because she was starving and found a piece of candy on the ground, ran into the forest and got trapped by bear trap and died of hunger after eating the piece of candy and then died of starvation because she was already starving beforehand, if it's a broken heart then that would mean that there were problems at home which caused her to run away into the forest where she died or it's both which would mean that her parents were abusive which is why she was starving
That’s so nice, even tho the mom knows he has imaginary friend she still took the picture of them.
Ghost friend actually
Well she didn’t know he was talking to a ghost
I think she took the puc just of the boy and he thought it was of both
So in the video the kid sees the ghost of a kid who died in the forest
Well I don't think she's a imaginary friend because they found her dead so it looks like the boy could ghosts but only on Halloween night until the night had end they go back to the where they had die
Jokes aside guys, This is really sad and depressing, The boy thought he made a friend.

So true. My only refuge to cry about it is the comment section 😢
I made my main oc based off this, her names Corruption and only somebody called Iris can actually see her. Everybody acts like they also see her but shes not there at all.
I still can't imagine how the little girl must have felt after getting injured by the bear trap. She must have waited and waited for someone to find her, the note from the candy in her hands must have been the last meal she ever ate... Until she finally passes on from her wounds or hunger. Ahhgh, this is just so sad for a child to bear. She even looked so happy on her picture from the policewoman's missing files. At least she was finally found, and can now rest in peace.
Awesome work! I really felt a lot of emotions from watching this.
She was probably lonely for a whole year, and then when the time comes (Halloween) she picked him to help her to find her body, at the end, she made a last friend before going to the afterlife and knowing that her family find her body.

I think my theory here is that she got into an argument with her family, it was said in the book of the woman she was last seen with her family, she then ran off to the woods because maybe that was her happy place, but then she did not realize that people there put bear traps all over the place, so she accidentally stepped on one and died of blood loss. Nobody even bothered looking for her, unlike the boy's mother who even go as far as going into the woods full of bear traps, it would have made sense why the little girl was still not found. Her parents did not love her like the boy. It's sad.
She ran away then led him to her so she could see what parents caring about they're child looks like.
or may be animator didn't think about it
This is one of the theories that I feel that are right☁
Alright so I get that she wanted someone to find her decaying body but something still ticks me off at 6:06 was she hoping him to step in one of the bare traps hoping that he whould die and then they whould be ghost together?

The older we get the more we realize that the imaginary friend was a better friend then real people
Sadly true....
True 😔🖐
yup
Ur pfp finna make me act up 😂

She probably just needed a friend to comfort her before her soul finally finds peace
I think she wanted him to find her soul
My god this makes it sadder
@@shhhhh7547 ik :(
I think she wants someone to bring her body back to home.
She need to be comfort,and to treat that since she already dead she wanted to bury so she can rest in peace
Officer: "You good?"
The mom: * *IS DYING* *
The father: "lady are you blind?"
Oh look,its skid,and this video is about Halloween/the spooky month, and there's a theory that pump is imaginary, or dead
Wait a minute... white boy is skid-?
@@ohnowhyameh8710 I don't think so, since the creator of skid and white boy are different, but I can see how people can misunderstands this
Wtf 666 likes
Wait you had 666 likes about a day ago and now over 2800 likes
Since 2019, RUclips recommended me to watch this video during Halloween time, and I never got motivated to watch it, but now this Halloween 2024 I did it, and I didn't think it would have that ending.
Shout out to my 6th grade English teacher for showing this to the whole class and thoroughly freaking us out at the ending.
imagine if someone asked to see his other videos
@@smirshmira o no
That’s a great English teacher you got there
lol english teacher knows what's up

I don't know how "cute" and "dark" could go so well together.
Same
Yeah so creapy and cute
Do you heard about Edmund MCMillen?
After all darkness started from Cute! When someone loves to be in the dark?That means they are scared of what there would be in the light! that's me lol

7:04 This "i found you" and "you found me" made this even sadder...
7:26 take me to your house as soon
I don’t really get why people say that “this messed them up” or “this is going to give me nightmares” it’s not even that scary just sad
Dude it hit deep and might have nightmares of that But it don’t always have to be scary dream
To be honest it's sad and Scarry at the same time to me
It is scary and sad
Is not really scary
I don’t get what’s scary... at all. To me it’s heartbreaking :(
Came back to see this animation again after 6 yrs, watching it again made me tear up again. Seeing them together was nice but the ending always gets me.
Yes, me too
Ikr same so sad 😢
Same
How she fuсk he didn't get jammed his legs
Same😭😭😭😭😭😭
Damn. This hits hard.
The whole imaginary friend thing was sad enough, but finding out she was actually a ghost who was just chilling with her living friend on halloween, then decided to lead him to her body to prove that she was real had me so close to crying.
The artstyle and innocent music also made this way sadder than it should be.
its as they say, halloween is when the barrier between the living and the dead is at its thinnest
the music feels nostalgic
She probably led him to set herself free.
@@natural7179 I'm pretty sure, she herself was alr a ghost and set free, but wanted people to know where she was, hence she wanted her friend to lead him to her
She wanted to murder that boy 😭
Never understood this as a kid but now I’m almost 17 and I’m in tears.
I'm younger but, yeah. I can't believe I watched it innocently and left behind the memory, only to get it recommended and reminded.
5 years has passed, but this mini movie is still in my mind.
edit: im-- thanks for the likesss 🤧
agreeee
Same
i watching this movie 60 times
agreed
Why am I here tho
So she died because she got caught in a bear trap and bled to death waiting for someone to help and find her.
yep
kinda dark..
Notice that she has puncture marks on her leg when hanging out with the kid
@@ctorresct902 I didn't notice that until I rewinded the video after reading this reply.
Yea..
7 YEARS AND ITS STILL MY FAVOURITE ANIMATIONS TO EXIST.
agreed
Same 😢😊
What are they gonna tell the boy? That hes been sleeping next to a corpse?💀
@@Pulgoh better than saying it was his imagination
Right
Finally, I'm back here, watching an animation that influenced my life and remained my Roman Empire.
What’s sad is that the female Police had a book of missing people and that there were more people missing
First one got found
Maybe the Boy could help locate other list or missing children, Luke he lead the officials to her body, solving a year-old cold case!
The second one is from Draw with me
@@ElesisClaireB2ST died of cutting her arm off
@@Zxiiozn She didn't die
"i found you" "you found me"
:( last words when we realize this is so deep story
:(

@@adrianalmoete9242 this is such a sad story. Also wow bruda.
@@angsarmartin7555u are *COMRADE*
Yeah...😢
5 years have passed but this video is a gem
yeah
I feel old
6 days ago???
I swear to god i have such flashbacks of 5 years ago
Yes
I always come back to this somehow, every year around this time, I only ever left one comment but I think I might as well now.
Re-watchin this a year later and...
Jesus, I can imagine the aftermath when they show her photo and ask him "Is this the friend you were talking about?"
He'd be like, "YEAH! That's her! I told you she's real!"
Then they all look at eachother, some with tears in their eyes whe the boy is confused.
It wasn't until years later, when he randomly asks his parents about this "Imaginary friend" when they tell him the full story of the event... Now he knows why he hasn't seen her since they had candy under the tree... He didn't "grow out of a phase"... she passed on because...
...
He *found her*
This needs more likes.
Also, if you think about it, the kid is likely well into his teens by now. Wonder if he would still be alone or have friends by then.
@@hitsugatatsuro9978
I hope he lives a good life, giving happiness and hope to those who need it, just like he did with the girl.
Maybe he'd tell the story to friends every Halloween night, cuz wrather they believe him or not, it's still a good story.
Then, when he finally passes away from old age, he sees a familiar girl, with a screw headband, sitting under a familiar tree. The elderly man plops down, sitting next to her, and she gives him a candy...
He hugs the girl, leaving her stunned, as he cried, "I missed you..."
She hugs back, not saying anything.
When they part from the embrace, they unwrap their candy, and pop it in their mouths, smiling as they chew on the candy in eachothers' company...
The man looks at the wraper, and it read-
"I missed you too"
With that, the girl asks the man if he'd like to play.
Without hesitation, the man agreed. As he stood to run after the girl, he was no longer an old elderly man in the hospital gown he died in, but the little boy in his costume who went trick or treating with her all those years ago...
...
HOLLY SHIT I DID IT AGAIN I'M SORRY 😅
I just got the idea and wanted to share it but now it feels like I wrote a sequel fanfic nobody asked for. But that's how I imagine it... lemme know what u think tho.
Also- thank you ☺
...providing that he didn’t also die. I mean it *did* look like he fell into a bear trap.
@@demongirl1019 you good my g
@@skeletonwarrior9393 It's shown that he's resting peacefully when they find him. The bear trap was simply a device to raise tension. I've watched that final scene several times and can find no evidence of injury.
Honestly it warms my heart a bit that he got the chance to make her soul happy for at least a little while.
@EL AUTENTICO LOL
@EL AUTENTICO mike inel is also a porn creator, so yknow
I can't imagine how long she was alone in the forest, until she was found by that boy. Just thinking about it makes me cry :"(
2 years or longer or i don't care

This animation was a part of my childhood. Rewatching it again brings back so much nostalgia. I still love this animation till this day. I’ll never forget about it.
