How have not gotten audiobook offers? You have the perfect voice and passion for literature.
So true
I could listen to her for hours
In the meantime, I hope you all are enjoying her second channel. There are so many recordings of her reading I genuinely don't know where to start.
Thiissss
@@searchingfororion what is her second channep
This kinda strays from the main point to the video, but have you heard of the nightmare death? There's over 100 cases of people ( aways men and the average age 33) dying in there sleep with no health problems what so ever. Might be something you’d like to look into.
I’ve heard that Freddy Kruger was inspired by an event like that
@@tera1692 I was going to comment the same thing. A young man was refusing to sleep and keeping himself awake (down to the coffee maker hidden in his room) then his father gave him RX sleeping pills, the same night the parents woke to yelling went into his room and saw him sitting up (still unconscious) screaming bloody murder and thrashing like he was fighting an invisible force then immediately stopped and collapsed dead in his bead from what could only be defined as a heart attack (despite being in perfect cardio health).
From what I know the cod is still considered a medical mystery. How did a perfectly healthy teenager suddenly have heart failure?
@@searchingfororion I've heard of that story, but it's not for sure that it actually happened or it was inspired by the nightmare death
What about that one where the woman was basically real life sleeping beauty
@@tera1692 really?
Of course, Junji Ito would have a short story with a similar concept; or perhaps its considered an inverse plot.
A guy suffering from his dreams/nightmares lasting longer and longer spans of time, even though he's only getting a normal amount of rest.
That's what I thought of too. It was wild and I loved it.
I take it you're referring to The Long Dream?
I was literally thinking about that episode
@@jammiedoughnut1126 episode?
Please tell u have read it and haven't watched it
I've had this happen to me before... It's genuinely horrible. You can only avoid it for so long, and personally for me when I /tried/ to avoid sleeping it would just make my dreams even more vivid. Thankfully I don't dream much at all anymore. But yeah, I can see how it would make for a horrifying plot
Sandman plus abitfrank? YES YES YES
I’m so happy to see you posting again. It’s so nice ❤
AWSOME ANOTHER VID, I love ur vids and ur topics r amazing 🤩
I love sandman and I love your channel!! ❤
Very wonderful video getting into some of the inspiration behind The Sandman.
Love your vids! I always find them so interesting and they always talk about unique topics at a different angle with more information and truth.
Super cool topic, I wonder if that flu pandemic had something to do with more people getting the sleep disease back then.
Dancing plague was interesting to learn about. Idk how much of it is fact, but it’s interesting none the less
Please do the Neil gaiman Snow White I think that one is really good
I loved this show! I'm excited for it to continue!
I have been watching this channel for quite sometime, but I just notice the sub count. My my, you deserve so much more
Wow.
I didn't expect this to actually move me, but it hurt.
I love your voice it's so soothing
abitfrank and The Sandman? Count me in.
I haven't watched one of your videos in ages, I'm glad you're still making them though
Did you say it may come back!? crap, there goes my sleep tonight... um... no pun intended 😅😨😴
Finally a story video, kind of
Now I’m thinking of the manga chapter ”Long Dream” by Junji Ito ❤
I've read the entire sandman series and I absolutely loved it
Ik you’re not a gaming channel, but you should totally play tiny bunny on stream. On your other channel. It’s a visual novel game with chosen paths to take. you’re calming voice would be so perfect and it has that midwinter folktale vibe to it with just enough supernatural elements. Its truly amazing and I think you would love it. And I know we all would too ❤❤
I seen the show sandman and it was good I was waiting on a video for it
Love the sandman ^^
That is terrifying.
There is a really good movie with Robin williams that deals with a similar illness. I forget the name of it.
She literally said the name of the movie. It's Awakenings
You should do a video about the comic book called The Crow and it’s 90’s movie adaptation.
Well im now afraid of something ive never thought of
Would you please make another video about Neil Gaiman's The Sandman and the fairytale that inspired it.
I miss your videos on this channel.
It sounds like a varient of narcolepsy a sleeping disorder
Awesome
This came out fast
u saying every century not only do we get some sort of plague but also some sort of sleep spell??
So nodoby ate, feeding tube? Sleep wakers eat( they might eat alot when in that state) so how did some of the older cases survive??? Intravenously??? 3 weeks with out eating. Yea... And you can live off sun light a lone. Text me when you wake up. If not I might be there with you.
7:20 so essentially what’s happening to ADHD today?
first love you and your videos
💜💜💜
