AWSOME ANOTHER VID, I love ur vids and ur topics r amazing 🤩

[@Rixec2]

Very wonderful video getting into some of the inspiration behind The Sandman.

[@RoarTheRapper]

I loved this show! I'm excited for it to continue!

[@AT7outof10]

Of course, Junji Ito would have a short story with a similar concept; or perhaps its considered an inverse plot.

[@pikapika7402]

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 love your voice it's so soothing

[@vagabondschemes]

I have been watching this channel for quite sometime, but I just notice the sub count. My my, you deserve so much more

[@SweetPotato_17]

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.

[@hannahsenders6462]

Dancing plague was interesting to learn about. Idk how much of it is fact, but it’s interesting none the less

[@tayloredwards4968]

Please do the Neil gaiman Snow White I think that one is really good

[@bdariamihaela]

Finally a story video, kind of

[@muralmarshall5044]

I haven't watched one of your videos in ages, I'm glad you're still making them though

[@Rscapeextreme447]

Super cool topic, I wonder if that flu pandemic had something to do with more people getting the sleep disease back then.

[@alyssamontgomery2978]

Wow.

[@lordvader619]
