Horror really is the things you don't see. Silent Hill PT proved this when someone debugged it and discovered the uncomfortable fact that there is a creepy ghost floating directly behind you out of your view the whole time you play, totally unawares you are being followed except perhaps subconsciously from the odd noise, shadow or reflection.
In real life something like this would work because subconsciously we can sense presences behind us. Even though we can't see what is behind us our subconscious can tell through consciously imperceptible details. The problem is that in a videogame these "consciously imperceptible details" don't exist.
The scariest part was me a 6 year old watching my early/mid 20s parents look at each other and say "I didn't realise this would be a real live show i thought it was a movie" I remember being scared beyond anything I ever experienced at that age. I remember coming in with my bag of sweets and sat on the brown patterned carpet excited about what most thought was to be a movie for kids after finished trick or treating.
Same here. I saw the title and clicked because even though I can watch ghostwatch whenever I want and know it inside out, I still love watching these breakdowns and discussions about it.
Everyone keeps mentioning the drawing at 3:39, but no one is mentioning that the ghost is a man who was convicted of c s a, and that the drawings were made by children. Like yes, haha funny drawing, but also YOOO THAT DETAIL MAKES IT SO MUCH SCARIER. EVEN AFTER DEATH HE IS TAKING ADVANTAGE OF KIDS
I remember watching this. It was actually terrifying. They used children’s TV presenters which added an extra layer of trust from us children. I’ve never been so scared to go to bed.
Imagine having a sleep paralysis of a demon in your room and then jarring awake switching on your bedside lamp the bulb immediately bursting with a bang and then you rush to press the room light switch the bulb also bursting with a bang leaving you in pitch black. Happened to me, no joke.
Thank you for using the term "intrusive thoughts" in the correct context. It's been incredibly harmful for people with actual mental health problems that people continue to twist and water-down the meanings of real clinical terms by turning them into buzzwords. It does more good than you might even know to use the terms correctly.
I saw it 'live' back in 1992. I was a horror geek even when I was eleven, so I wasn't taken in (plus the credits helped) but it was really creepy in a way that got better with time. Yes it's aged, but if you look past that, the actual story is horrifying.
context was given at the start and end of broadcast, but the British public also supported the ban of the word 'ninja' and 'depictions of nunchuck like objects' in the 80s because apparently ninjas using nunchucks were a huge street crime issue (they werent). So yeah, an outraged British Public has never been too bright and easy to manipulate even by accident
@@Rynewulf - In fairness, I think the PTSD aspect was a bit of hysteria. PTSD diagnoses were starting to be talked about in the news back then, so I guess people had heard of it but didn't know that much about it. Also... a lot of the people watching it (myself included) were very young, partly because of the people who were in it. Sarah Greene and Craig Charles were both on shows that were very popular with kids, and it was pretty common for kids to stay up late on Halloween. Not saying we weren't capable of dumb-ass moral panic, but most of the reason people bought into Ghostwatch wasn't anything to do with that.
Hah…I saw that. Not at the time, but on other montages covering joke broadcasts. I feel terrible for people affected by Ghost Watch, but…it seems odd that people thought it was real (ok, maybe kids). Some reports claim people thought the “War of the Worlds” radio broadcast was “real,” but other reports say that was exaggerated by Orsen Welles for publicity and never happened.
Yo, nice intro and color grading! This looks really good! I love the integration of the retro CRT TV to show the footage of the show. I've seen clips of Ghostwatch making their way around the internet for years. It's cool to finally know where they came from. This story reminds me of the stories about farmers shooting at water towers when The War of the Worlds was broadcast on the radio because they thoughts aliens were actually invading.
I was thinking that the whole time watching it. Especially when they said there was a skeptic brought on and how they had the girl like sound deprived communicating with the spirit. Soo like the movie
@@Mojo_Jojo9869 You should look up who James Randi is. He's the actual guy that the skeptic in "Late Night With The Devil" is based on, and yes, he literally had a deal going on that if somebody could prove they had supernatural powers he'd give them a check with a large amount of money on it. James Randi even appeared on The Tonight Show, and other talk shows for awhile.
Google purposefully limits all your search choices to be on the first page, page 2 to 9? Who looks at that. People pay to have their shit pop up on the first page. People pay to have things taken off the page... anyone can do that if their name yields personal info and you pay a service to nag the data brockers to delete said date on you they acquired for free or paid for
@@Squidbush8563Even when what theyve found is labelled by Google as an ad post or ai generated! And thats when they actually look anything up.

I still dispair
@@Squidbush8563 Thats because the first page of results is all there is... go ahead and search something on google, skip to the 5th or 6th page - theres nothing, the internet is curated to show us what the ISP's and search engines only what they want to show you. Go look into the "dead internet" theory on RUclips after. Youll want to sit down - its a rabbit hole.

The BBC had a long history of making horror based mini-series by the time Ghostwatch came about... One early example is the 1981 4 part series 'The Nightmare Man' - about a mysterious and vicious killer slaying people on a remote Scottish island. It was adapted from a David Wiltshire novel 'Child of the Vodyanoi' by legendary Dr Who writer Robert Holmes... Holmes was often being reigned in by Dr Who producers for his vivid and repugnant horror elements, which often got dramatically toned down... With 'The Nightmare Man', he had a field day, as did the production team. Again, it succeeds greatly from what it doesn't show. In the first couple of minutes, a dismembered corpse is found in the 'rough' on a golf course - but this is only implied... a bloody hand under a bush, then another hand an impossible camera-pan away [as the actor turns], implying the victim was torn limb from limb without showing any more than a hand caught in a bush. In a later episode, there is a whole segment of photographs from a recovered camera that are projected as a slideshow in synch with the audio from a cassette player of the victim who was recording his daily birdwatching progress as he was attacked in his tent. Again, you see glimpses, blurry suggestions, shapes but the audio is utterly blood-curdling for reasons I won't reveal. The sombre mood of this whole mini-drama, the seriousness and grounded performances of the believable actors and the sparing use of actual horror augmented with implied horror makes this mini-series very effective. I was scared as an almost teenager at the time, and it still creeps me out a little even now, if I rewatch the DVD. I thoroughly recommend searching this out.
You also have to remember that this was back before everyone had HD TVs and whatnot. So things like the fake injuries on the girl couldn’t be seen well and examined carefully
Love the fact that the BBC made Ghostwatch. I'm a Brit, and It was terrifying to watch the shots that were presented to us. Wouldn't of thought that the BBC would make something as scary/investing as this.
Most of our “news” networks are brought to us by entertainment conglomerations. How many of us can really tell the difference between reality and fiction? If someone wearing a suit who calls themself a “journalist” or “newscaster”from CNN, ABC, FOX, etc. tells us that something is real, we tend to believe it. We haven’t learned much.
I think things have changed but maybe it's not actually better. Now more and more people just assume everything they hear is lies but that means a lot of them think the "truth" is whatever web of magic, spiritualism, and government cover-ups they think are the real ones. I am saying that as someone who thinks the truth probably is some set like that lol
The first time you see Pipes and an audience member calls in to say what they saw (and what you saw) is incredible - they rewind the video to examine it but, when they do so, it's had Pipes pretty much removed from the video and they start highlighting shadows and lighting that *could* possibly be misconstrued as a person. This was live TV - you couldn't just rewind to find out if you overreacted when you thought you'd seen him. It completely gaslights you into thinking you didn't really see anything at all and it's done perfectly because this then gives you a false sense of security.
This takes me back to when Animal Planet released their Mermaid documentary.My family watched it (granted we didn't watch it on AP but in a Spanish dubbed when it aired can't remember what channel though) BUT man I remember watching this and believing every second. it felt so convincing
I love that the next review you have under this on Letterbox is “The Voyage Home” - that was the Star Trek movie that really got me into Star Trek lol. My dad had tried my whole life with the classic episodes and the Wrath of Khan but it was the whales and the campy fun with the characters I’d grown up with that really drew me in for good.

You should do a video on the movie Threads. Similar idea to Ghostwatch. Aired by the BBC in the 1980s, presented in a documentary style, and infamously scared the bejesus out of an unsuspecting audience already primed by TV news with nuclear anxiety between NATO and the Soviet Union. Threads was presented as a frighteningly plausible "what if" scenario except it kept the knife in for longer than is typical - showing how nuclear war would cause a near total break down of society for years and years after the dust settled. Not something that would likely ever allow you to return to whatever normal life you led before the attack. Showing how survivors would be reduced to chronically ill scavenging mobs. Showing cops executing people on site and windswept irradiated farmland being the sole source of any long-term food reserves for decades to come. It exposed not only how hopelessly underprepared the UK was for a nuclear attack at the time,. but also how any sufficiently large disaster can unravel the threads (har-har) of an urban society in an instant. And modern industrial people like us aren't in a position to handle that. The sheer sense of insecurity and dread it created left me speechless. I don't live in the UK, nor was I alive when it broadcast, but I heard about it recently and watched it online, at home, alone, in the middle of the night, and it's the scariest movie I've ever seen in my life! I didn't feel okay for days afterward. Something I wasn't prepared for. Given your video topics I'm sure you've seen or at least heard of Threads. I would love to see you breakdown the production and cultural impact of this brilliant and terrifying TV movie! *Also, good job on this one. I never would've heard of Ghostwatch otherwise. I'll check it out!
Yeah, you want to be in a good place mentally before you watch 'Threads'. I never saw it as a kid when all that nuclear threat was in the air, but I remember being convinced I'd be melted before I became an adult. We had 'When the Wind Blows' in our primary school library - not sure any of the teachers had actually read it, they probably thought it was on par with Fungus the Bogeyman.
There was something before Ghost Watch. A radio broadcast of Orson Welles’ War of the Worlds Same thing with people tuning in after is started. This happened right before WW2 so people freaked out. 6 million heard it, 2 million believed it and 1 million were left frightened and disturbed
I saw Ghostwatch when it aired - I would've been about 9 at the time. I think something people don't realise about it is that, because of a combination of the people in it - Craig Charles and Sarah Greene were both popular with younger folks - and the fact that it aired on Halloween... a lot of people who were watching were younger and more likely to be susceptible. There's also the fact that this was pre-Blair Witch Project (and an inspiration for that movie), and I guess people were just less media-savvy back then. Unless you were one of the few who'd seen Cannibal Holocaust, this would probably be your first exposure to a horror mockumentary. I think also, PTSD had only started being widely diagnosed a year or so before (possibly because of the Iraq War?), and people might've been a bit trigger-happy with their armchair diagnoses. Claims of PTSD came in very quickly, and as I understand it, you can't really make a PTSD diagnosis at that point because it's just not distinguishable from just being shaken up by something scary. Still, with all that said, it's just a very well-crafted piece of horror. I watched it again about 20 years after the original airing, in broad daylight, fully aware that it was not real... and it's still pretty damn scary. I think they really went all out because they weren't sure if they were going to be allowed to air it as a mockumentary, and it paid off. Everyone who saw it remembers it, and I think most of us are pretty happy about it, even if the BBC doesn't seem very proud of it.
When were you born though? That makes a difference in how you see the world. Back then we didn’t have the amount of sceptics that are around today. No socials to discuss it either. 😊 It makes a difference in what you’d believe. ✌🏻
Orson Wells did a radio show in the 40s that caused wide spread chaos in America. There was a disclaimer at the beginning but most people missed it. Halloween night and Orson Wells with his "War of the Worlds" broadcast frightened an entire nation as it was set up to look like it was breaking news of alien invasions and people dying.
7:05 - I never noticed this in the movie when I watched it. The cat was the jumpscare, a slight of hand, and the ghost probably wouldn't have been noticed. (I didn't, like I mentioned in the first sentence.)
imagine not having unmanned cameras on tripods around the house on loop recording and trying to convince people on national TV that there is something super natural going on. I was born at night, but it wasnt last night.
I don't understand how people think things are real like this. Acting is very obvious when it comes to being filmed. People speak too perfectly, there's no stutters, no misspoken words. No fillers, no ums. Just super obvious that it's a rehearsed line. Also, actors rarely bring their whole face into acting. Especially back then lol. Now, some start to. But many don't, you can see it in the eyes. So it's weird to me that people ever fell for this. And none of them react as most humans do to situations. I dunno. It's like when you watch ghost investigation shows or RUclips videos, you can always tell when the crews are faking stuff.
I have to say, you got me to sub in the first five minutes. This was excellently done and your voice is absolutely lovely. I can't wait to see what you make next and I'm off to catch up on the rest of your videos!
This sounds familiar. This sounds like the War of the worlds broadcast of 1938. Same thing happened with that one. People misses the disclaimer in the beginning and thought it was a live news broadcast.
This house was so old that the kids could see the kitchen through a crack from their bedroom! No wonder the house had so many noises and things going on. 😂😂😂😂😂
its like the radio broadcast of war of the worlds when they wanted it to sound like a live coverage and people went crazy thinking the world was ending
I've heard it and the beginning is pretty convincing. They 'interrupt' a dance music programme to report on the crashed ship and you get to hear quite a horrifying scream of someone being heat rayed.
It's so annoying how many reviews I've read of "Late Night With the Devil" being "unique" - the entire film is insanely heavily "inspired" by Ghostwatch except with an exorcism angle instead of a poltergeist
What I've never heard about Ghostwatch is... did they advertise? I mean, were there commercials? And if so what were they like? I was thinking that if they showed GW an hour later, maybe fewer kids would've seen it, and it wouldn't have been that big of a deal as far as scaring children was concerned. But there WAS a disclaimer saying GW wasn't real, but apparently, a lot of people missed that as they tuned in while it was already on. So I'm wondering, did they advertise? Print or commercial? If so, then everyone would've known when to tune in, and some would've missed the disclaimer anyway, but if they advertised, then I feel more people would've tuned in early enough to catch the disclaimer. Or was this something that just popped up on the BBC that night and no one knew that it was going to be on? I feel bad for those kids. But still, GW was awesome!
@@robokill387 Lol. Well, yeah. I'm sure England doesn't have just one channel. I'm sure there are lots of reasons some people didn't tune in on time. Late coming home, dinner, hanging out with friends. But that's not what I'm asking or wondering about. I was just curious if they advertised.
You look so much like Barry (character in Friends). That being said, I love your set, retro and cozy at the same time. First time I watch your channel, I hope there is a room tour video :)

27:04 It wasn't really meant to be a horror project, but this whole thing reminds me heavily of when "war of the worlds" was being read on a radio station and people thought it was the news and that aliens had actually invaded
Kind of reminds me of when I experienced similar confusion at a "documentary" about dragons. Though certainly a more wholesome incident, it wasn't until about halfway through the broadcast that I confirmed it was entirely fictional, as the narrator had been mostly vague and dodgy about it.
I remember watching it at the time and thinking the acting was so terrible. I still find it shocking anyone took it seriously. Even now reading the comments is frankly embarrassing.
@AA-ed6ek America, the UK, Germany, France, honestly most developed countries. Lack of critical thought might be a symptom of development in general at this point
Unrelated but when I was a kid, in France, sometimes, simingly randomly, a warning message was poping on tv to warn people about a kid that has been kidnaped with a picture of the kid and some informations. It legit trauma me, I still remember the siren noise and the voice saying "alerte enlèvement". All I want to say is the little things that scare kids stay in their head for life. Edit : I haven't watched tv for a while and just noticed it's still a thing! They're still doing those same warning messages. It's still creepy as fuck.
I cannot believe any sane person would believe this. They are behaving in an over the top dramatic manner and yeah, Lister is a dead give away. Ohmy, Cat was outside the glass door😂😂😂🐱🐱
Maybe parents should not let their kids watch scary things on TV or on the computer. There are some kids that are just way too sensitive and shouldn't be exposed to stuff like this.
Unbiased as in the opposite spectrum of nbc and fox news, if what they report don’t align with whichever party/cult you believe in, then you should reconsider your beliefs
No TV show or movie should EVER be held responsible for the reactions of the public. Those actions are the responsibility of the individual. I don't care what happened; it merely means that they weren't strong enough, smart enough, or mentally sound enough in the first place. It's called separating the wheat from the chaff. That entire 'trust in the media' experiment angle worked perfectly and made it's point. You can't put your full faith in something like that, you have to think for yourself. It's all a process of natural selection, really. It only goes to show how easily manipulated people are and how fragile they are/have become by hanging on every word as gospel. Which, ironic word usage, I realise now--as religions do the same thing. It's all manipulation and brainwashing for power, control, status and being able to 'other' yourself or group as something special/blessed by an all seeing force, OR othering groups of people that don't share your beliefs by shunning them, hurting them, and sometimes downright killing them. All while operating under the guise that they're doing the right thing and/or doing the will of their God. And not just cults. All religions.
I vividly remember watching this on the night as a 6 year old in 1992 and being absolutely gripped and terrified and fully believing it was all real! I'm sure I will have slept with the lights on that night! I legit thought Sara Green had been 'taken' by Pipes. Absolutely amazing what they managed to achieve. It was only years later that I even learned it was scripted. Never again could anything in the paranormal genre achieve that same level of verisimilitude again

Horror really is the things you don't see. Silent Hill PT proved this when someone debugged it and discovered the uncomfortable fact that there is a creepy ghost floating directly behind you out of your view the whole time you play, totally unawares you are being followed except perhaps subconsciously from the odd noise, shadow or reflection.
But that was horror by the ghost being seen then, otherwise you never knew or cared.
In real life something like this would work because subconsciously we can sense presences behind us. Even though we can't see what is behind us our subconscious can tell through consciously imperceptible details. The problem is that in a videogame these "consciously imperceptible details" don't exist.
I would love to see this idea explored further in horror games though
God, I love PT. I wish they ended up developing a full game. So much potential.

Yeah it takes a certain skill set to reliably find anything somewhat near the truth
Google purposefully limits all your search choices to be on the first page, page 2 to 9? Who looks at that.
People pay to have their shit pop up on the first page.
People pay to have things taken off the page... anyone can do that if their name yields personal info and
you pay a service to nag the data brockers to delete said date on you they acquired for free or paid for
@@FlapJacks7 and MANY people completely believe everything on the first page of Google results too. It's honestly worse now than it was back then.
@@Squidbush8563Even when what theyve found is labelled by Google as an ad post or ai generated!
And thats when they actually look anything up.
I was one of two on hand tech support and company policy checkers in a call centre once- because I and one other person in the entire office were the only people to ever, ever look anything up even if it was important and mucking it up but cost our jobs.
I still dispair
@@Squidbush8563 Thats because the first page of results is all there is... go ahead and search something on google, skip to the 5th or 6th page - theres nothing, the internet is curated to show us what the ISP's and search engines only what they want to show you. Go look into the "dead internet" theory on RUclips after. Youll want to sit down - its a rabbit hole.

THAT SCARED THE SHIT OUT OF ME WHY DID YOU POINT IT OUT?!?
(my cat then randomly appeared, the universe is screwing with me)
Homie, I live innawoods in the American South. I went outside to smoke after that part and there's a bobcat (North American Lynx) roughly 30 feet from my back porch yowling and glaring at me like I owe her child support money
The BBC had a long history of making horror based mini-series by the time Ghostwatch came about... One early example is the 1981 4 part series 'The Nightmare Man' - about a mysterious and vicious killer slaying people on a remote Scottish island. It was adapted from a David Wiltshire novel 'Child of the Vodyanoi' by legendary Dr Who writer Robert Holmes... Holmes was often being reigned in by Dr Who producers for his vivid and repugnant horror elements, which often got dramatically toned down... With 'The Nightmare Man', he had a field day, as did the production team. Again, it succeeds greatly from what it doesn't show. In the first couple of minutes, a dismembered corpse is found in the 'rough' on a golf course - but this is only implied... a bloody hand under a bush, then another hand an impossible camera-pan away [as the actor turns], implying the victim was torn limb from limb without showing any more than a hand caught in a bush. In a later episode, there is a whole segment of photographs from a recovered camera that are projected as a slideshow in synch with the audio from a cassette player of the victim who was recording his daily birdwatching progress as he was attacked in his tent. Again, you see glimpses, blurry suggestions, shapes but the audio is utterly blood-curdling for reasons I won't reveal. The sombre mood of this whole mini-drama, the seriousness and grounded performances of the believable actors and the sparing use of actual horror augmented with implied horror makes this mini-series very effective. I was scared as an almost teenager at the time, and it still creeps me out a little even now, if I rewatch the DVD. I thoroughly recommend searching this out.
I don’t remember the nightmare man…but I think I remember the nightman cometh. That was another one, no?
oh my god i got those like weird like tears in my eyes during the dude in the reflection part...
Same!!!
You also have to remember that this was back before everyone had HD TVs and whatnot. So things like the fake injuries on the girl couldn’t be seen well and examined carefully
Loved the film, this is exactly what Late Night With The Devil wanted to be.
Love the fact that the BBC made Ghostwatch. I'm a Brit, and It was terrifying to watch the shots that were presented to us. Wouldn't of thought that the BBC would make something as scary/investing as this.
Most of our “news” networks are brought to us by entertainment conglomerations. How many of us can really tell the difference between reality and fiction? If someone wearing a suit who calls themself a “journalist” or “newscaster”from CNN, ABC, FOX, etc. tells us that something is real, we tend to believe it. We haven’t learned much.
I think things have changed but maybe it's not actually better. Now more and more people just assume everything they hear is lies but that means a lot of them think the "truth" is whatever web of magic, spiritualism, and government cover-ups they think are the real ones. I am saying that as someone who thinks the truth probably is some set like that lol
I watched this in the UK as a teenager when it first aired. It scared the bejeezus out of me.
The first time you see Pipes and an audience member calls in to say what they saw (and what you saw) is incredible - they rewind the video to examine it but, when they do so, it's had Pipes pretty much removed from the video and they start highlighting shadows and lighting that *could* possibly be misconstrued as a person. This was live TV - you couldn't just rewind to find out if you overreacted when you thought you'd seen him. It completely gaslights you into thinking you didn't really see anything at all and it's done perfectly because this then gives you a false sense of security.
This takes me back to when Animal Planet released their Mermaid documentary.My family watched it (granted we didn't watch it on AP but in a Spanish dubbed when it aired can't remember what channel though) BUT man I remember watching this and believing every second. it felt so convincing
This was such a classic! I honestly didn’t notice the pic at 3:38 before! Did they really sneak that in there and think no one would notice 😂😂
here's hoping you get to 100k soon. You put so much effort into your videos!
I love that the next review you have under this on Letterbox is “The Voyage Home” - that was the Star Trek movie that really got me into Star Trek lol. My dad had tried my whole life with the classic episodes and the Wrath of Khan but it was the whales and the campy fun with the characters I’d grown up with that really drew me in for good.

Do you know Jesus Christ can set you free from sins and save you from hell today

John 3:16-21
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
Mark 1.15
15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.
2 Peter 3:9
The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

Thank you for this video!! Its my birthday today and I'm so happy to watch this
Hey Virgo ♍️ happy birthday 🎁🎂🎉
@@priskavictoria6458 thanks girly!!!
Ah yes, we’ve heard about this… The Star Wars Holiday Special.
Come on! You didn’t like Bea Arthur? It made perfect sense.
You should do a video on the movie Threads. Similar idea to Ghostwatch. Aired by the BBC in the 1980s, presented in a documentary style, and infamously scared the bejesus out of an unsuspecting audience already primed by TV news with nuclear anxiety between NATO and the Soviet Union. Threads was presented as a frighteningly plausible "what if" scenario except it kept the knife in for longer than is typical - showing how nuclear war would cause a near total break down of society for years and years after the dust settled. Not something that would likely ever allow you to return to whatever normal life you led before the attack. Showing how survivors would be reduced to chronically ill scavenging mobs. Showing cops executing people on site and windswept irradiated farmland being the sole source of any long-term food reserves for decades to come. It exposed not only how hopelessly underprepared the UK was for a nuclear attack at the time,. but also how any sufficiently large disaster can unravel the threads (har-har) of an urban society in an instant. And modern industrial people like us aren't in a position to handle that. The sheer sense of insecurity and dread it created left me speechless. I don't live in the UK, nor was I alive when it broadcast, but I heard about it recently and watched it online, at home, alone, in the middle of the night, and it's the scariest movie I've ever seen in my life! I didn't feel okay for days afterward. Something I wasn't prepared for.
Given your video topics I'm sure you've seen or at least heard of Threads. I would love to see you breakdown the production and cultural impact of this brilliant and terrifying TV movie!
*Also, good job on this one. I never would've heard of Ghostwatch otherwise. I'll check it out!
Yeah, you want to be in a good place mentally before you watch 'Threads'. I never saw it as a kid when all that nuclear threat was in the air, but I remember being convinced I'd be melted before I became an adult. We had 'When the Wind Blows' in our primary school library - not sure any of the teachers had actually read it, they probably thought it was on par with Fungus the Bogeyman.
There was something before Ghost Watch. A radio broadcast of Orson Welles’ War of the Worlds
Same thing with people tuning in after is started. This happened right before WW2 so people freaked out. 6 million heard it, 2 million believed it and 1 million were left frightened and disturbed
I saw Ghostwatch when it aired - I would've been about 9 at the time.
I think something people don't realise about it is that, because of a combination of the people in it - Craig Charles and Sarah Greene were both popular with younger folks - and the fact that it aired on Halloween... a lot of people who were watching were younger and more likely to be susceptible.
There's also the fact that this was pre-Blair Witch Project (and an inspiration for that movie), and I guess people were just less media-savvy back then. Unless you were one of the few who'd seen Cannibal Holocaust, this would probably be your first exposure to a horror mockumentary.
I think also, PTSD had only started being widely diagnosed a year or so before (possibly because of the Iraq War?), and people might've been a bit trigger-happy with their armchair diagnoses. Claims of PTSD came in very quickly, and as I understand it, you can't really make a PTSD diagnosis at that point because it's just not distinguishable from just being shaken up by something scary.
Still, with all that said, it's just a very well-crafted piece of horror. I watched it again about 20 years after the original airing, in broad daylight, fully aware that it was not real... and it's still pretty damn scary. I think they really went all out because they weren't sure if they were going to be allowed to air it as a mockumentary, and it paid off. Everyone who saw it remembers it, and I think most of us are pretty happy about it, even if the BBC doesn't seem very proud of it.
We had no tv back then so we missed this (probably just as well!). We literally lived off grid in a remote part of scotland at the time.
Your production skills continue to increase, good work

i cannot imagine trusting a news source so much that you would sooner believe in ghosts than believe they were lying to you
Lmao ikr?
When were you born though? That makes a difference in how you see the world. Back then we didn’t have the amount of sceptics that are around today. No socials to discuss it either. 😊 It makes a difference in what you’d believe. ✌🏻
No idea how you don’t have 1 million subs. Your intros are amazing
Ghostwatch and inside no9 Halloween special have to be some of the most creative amazing produced media I’ve ever seen simply both are legendary
Orson Wells did a radio show in the 40s that caused wide spread chaos in America. There was a disclaimer at the beginning but most people missed it. Halloween night and Orson Wells with his "War of the Worlds" broadcast frightened an entire nation as it was set up to look like it was breaking news of alien invasions and people dying.
I’m enjoying your videos quite a lot I just found your channel. Good editing
7:05 - I never noticed this in the movie when I watched it. The cat was the jumpscare, a slight of hand, and the ghost probably wouldn't have been noticed. (I didn't, like I mentioned in the first sentence.)
Ooohh damn! I forgot Craig Charles was in Ghost Watch. I love Red Dwarf series.
imagine not having unmanned cameras on tripods around the house on loop recording and trying to convince people on national TV that there is something super natural going on. I was born at night, but it wasnt last night.
😅😅😅
I don't understand how people think things are real like this. Acting is very obvious when it comes to being filmed. People speak too perfectly, there's no stutters, no misspoken words. No fillers, no ums. Just super obvious that it's a rehearsed line. Also, actors rarely bring their whole face into acting. Especially back then lol. Now, some start to. But many don't, you can see it in the eyes. So it's weird to me that people ever fell for this. And none of them react as most humans do to situations. I dunno. It's like when you watch ghost investigation shows or RUclips videos, you can always tell when the crews are faking stuff.
You definitely got me. Just before the reveal I was thinking "hooolyyyy shit this is legit insane", and the idea of a nation-wide seance was wild
the weirdest part of this is the decorative apples on strings in the kitchen
it as the 90s, kitchen deco was just like that
"Self annihilation" LMFAO nice one
It's so amusing to watch the satire from BBC it is very obvious they are all acting. The genre started.
I have to say, you got me to sub in the first five minutes. This was excellently done and your voice is absolutely lovely. I can't wait to see what you make next and I'm off to catch up on the rest of your videos!
3:39 um, what is little Suzy drawing?? That’s a big ol thang on that ghost
Reminder that the ghost was convicted of csa when he was alive. :3 and that Suzy is a child. *finger guns*
😅😅😅
Very glad RUclips recommended your channel to me. Instant subscribe
This got me good as a kid, I was about 8. Couldn’t sleep one bit. Shit everyone up!!!
Ahhh, Ghostwatch. A classic. Also, your set is really amazing!
Anybody else notice the picture of the wang and balls in the girl's notebook at 3:38?
LMAO omg you’re right! 😂😂
I mean it makes sense. The ghost was convicted of csa before its death. Quite dark, yea?
An erect, ejaculating one, no less. What the **** goes on in that house?
I haven't even watched the video yet, but this is the kind of content I'm here for.
Yeaaa I found it
Can’t believe I haven’t seen your videos before. This is the type of media I LOVE. Amazing work.
this is proper horror, still terrifying decades later
Really!?
This sounds familiar. This sounds like the War of the worlds broadcast of 1938. Same thing happened with that one. People misses the disclaimer in the beginning and thought it was a live news broadcast.
This house was so old that the kids could see the kitchen through a crack from their bedroom! No wonder the house had so many noises and things going on.
😂😂😂😂😂
"As a public media institution [the BBC] have to work hard not just to be unbiased but to also uphold a high level of integrity." lol
I saw this live, i was 11. I remember it to this day. Scared the crap out of me.
Inside no.9 did one a few years ago too.
its like the radio broadcast of war of the worlds when they wanted it to sound like a live coverage and people went crazy thinking the world was ending
I've heard it and the beginning is pretty convincing. They 'interrupt' a dance music programme to report on the crashed ship and you get to hear quite a horrifying scream of someone being heat rayed.
It's so annoying how many reviews I've read of "Late Night With the Devil" being "unique" - the entire film is insanely heavily "inspired" by Ghostwatch except with an exorcism angle instead of a poltergeist
What I've never heard about Ghostwatch is... did they advertise? I mean, were there commercials? And if so what were they like? I was thinking that if they showed GW an hour later, maybe fewer kids would've seen it, and it wouldn't have been that big of a deal as far as scaring children was concerned. But there WAS a disclaimer saying GW wasn't real, but apparently, a lot of people missed that as they tuned in while it was already on. So I'm wondering, did they advertise? Print or commercial? If so, then everyone would've known when to tune in, and some would've missed the disclaimer anyway, but if they advertised, then I feel more people would've tuned in early enough to catch the disclaimer. Or was this something that just popped up on the BBC that night and no one knew that it was going to be on? I feel bad for those kids. But still, GW was awesome!
The reason a lot of people didn't tune in earlier is that there was something else on on another channel.
@@robokill387 Lol. Well, yeah. I'm sure England doesn't have just one channel. I'm sure there are lots of reasons some people didn't tune in on time. Late coming home, dinner, hanging out with friends. But that's not what I'm asking or wondering about. I was just curious if they advertised.
Yeah, there should be some kind of parental advisory symbol on these, like a red dot or smtg.
You look so much like Barry (character in Friends). That being said, I love your set, retro and cozy at the same time. First time I watch your channel, I hope there is a room tour video :)
I commented before the end of the video so now I know it was a special cabin where you stayed for the filming 😅
So how do you know you can trust Incogni? Is it a Corp or private? If it has shareholders who are they? People need to look deeper before they fall for something like this right?
A good rule of thumb is to see every youtube sponsorship as some sort of scam.
I didn't think anyone else knew about Late Night With the Devil, it was a really good movie actually

13:22 there is another shot of the old bald dude. After exploding light.
Good job on this video. I really liked the way you presented it😊
27:04 It wasn't really meant to be a horror project, but this whole thing reminds me heavily of when "war of the worlds" was being read on a radio station and people thought it was the news and that aliens had actually invaded
Kind of reminds me of when I experienced similar confusion at a "documentary" about dragons. Though certainly a more wholesome incident, it wasn't until about halfway through the broadcast that I confirmed it was entirely fictional, as the narrator had been mostly vague and dodgy about it.
If he looks familiar and ya can't place him, Craig Charles was Lister on _Red Dwarf_ 😂
I remember watching it at the time and thinking the acting was so terrible. I still find it shocking anyone took it seriously. Even now reading the comments is frankly embarrassing.
"a time when people mostly just believed what they saw on TV" sir thats today. that time has never ended lol
Well, maybe 25-30% believe “if it’s on TV/film”….but most don’t.

wish the BBC would rerun this for Halloweens 🎃🍂
late night with the devil was a lot of fun, thanks for the rec!
Unrelated but when I was a kid, in France, sometimes, simingly randomly, a warning message was poping on tv to warn people about a kid that has been kidnaped with a picture of the kid and some informations. It legit trauma me, I still remember the siren noise and the voice saying "alerte enlèvement". All I want to say is the little things that scare kids stay in their head for life.
Edit : I haven't watched tv for a while and just noticed it's still a thing! They're still doing those same warning messages. It's still creepy as fuck.
Ghostwatch is so good! Watched it a few months ago and loved it. Late Night with the Devil reminded me a lot of it!
I like this channel, and the way you speak is very enjoyable. Thanks
The fact that Dave Lister was doing interviews should have been a dead giveaway that it wasn't real.
I cannot believe any sane person would believe this. They are behaving in an over the top dramatic manner and yeah, Lister is a dead give away. Ohmy, Cat was outside the glass door😂😂😂🐱🐱
I remember this a kid, man it was scary as it was very believable.... Great bro, 👍🏼
It was ahead of its time, that's why it caught people out.
"I let my child watch a scary programme and he got scared😡😡😡"
"the BBC is trustworthy"
lol
Maybe parents should not let their kids watch scary things on TV or on the computer. There are some kids that are just way too sensitive and shouldn't be exposed to stuff like this.
Did you just call the BBC unbiased? 😂 Regardless great video!
Unbiased as in the opposite spectrum of nbc and fox news, if what they report don’t align with whichever party/cult you believe in, then you should reconsider your beliefs
i believe that may have been the joke

No TV show or movie should EVER be held responsible for the reactions of the public. Those actions are the responsibility of the individual. I don't care what happened; it merely means that they weren't strong enough, smart enough, or mentally sound enough in the first place. It's called separating the wheat from the chaff. That entire 'trust in the media' experiment angle worked perfectly and made it's point. You can't put your full faith in something like that, you have to think for yourself. It's all a process of natural selection, really.
It only goes to show how easily manipulated people are and how fragile they are/have become by hanging on every word as gospel. Which, ironic word usage, I realise now--as religions do the same thing. It's all manipulation and brainwashing for power, control, status and being able to 'other' yourself or group as something special/blessed by an all seeing force, OR othering groups of people that don't share your beliefs by shunning them, hurting them, and sometimes downright killing them. All while operating under the guise that they're doing the right thing and/or doing the will of their God.
And not just cults. All religions.
i suspected this was ghostwatch; but i love your take on this.
LETS GOOO FARRELL MCGUIRE VIDEO ON MY BIRTHDAY BEST GIFT!
God I love this film, I bought the 20th anniversary box set the millisecond it came out, no regrets. I love seeing people talk about it 💜
Nah this is honestly sick as fuck, shoutouts to these folks makin this shit, creative and so well executed
I vividly remember watching this on the night as a 6 year old in 1992 and being absolutely gripped and terrified and fully believing it was all real! I'm sure I will have slept with the lights on that night! I legit thought Sara Green had been 'taken' by Pipes. Absolutely amazing what they managed to achieve. It was only years later that I even learned it was scripted. Never again could anything in the paranormal genre achieve that same level of verisimilitude again
The ghost saying "Hawk tuah," is wild.
I almost spit my beverage out when i heard that the bbc is a trusted source, lol
You did great on this video, can you do a few more videos similar to this? It’s almost Halloween !
It'd be a little sus to have Craig Charles hosting this supposedly real broadcast. Still, notes I've got to watch it in it's entirety.
