That's actually a _really_ good premise for a plot. Everything is normal until one day, bam, there's suddenly, like, vampires or something, and everyone knows who they are so they can't hide and it's all out war. Why now? Why didn't they stay hidden? Because some gullible vampire believed a lie from a normal human and spread it to all the other vampires, and humanity figured it out before the vampires did, causing the vampires to out themselves. The war ends up taking both sides by surprise, so neither is properly prepared but they can't back down either. In fact, forget plot, this would make for a good TTRPG setting. When everything is in chaos like this, adventure hooks are aplenty.

@@williechops I kinda wanna see a broken Chalmers in the style of the Recent Mandela Catalogue Entry. "Skinner...I may not have ever seen eye too eye with you, you were an odd Fellow...but I respected your Service, and what I did see in you was a Man with Potential to do good, (if managed properly. "I'm...so sorry that I let you down. That I couldn't do anything at all. I knew something was off, I should have torn that damn door down, I could have, but instead I just stood there! I'm sorry Seymour, I'm so sorry! To You, and your Mother!"
Honestly it’s super terrifying when the alternate Chalmers “I see” and gets straight to the point with killing Skinner when the real Chalmers rings the doorbell. Clearly it wasn’t his goal but he had to clean up the mess that was already spilling out of control.
If i remember well, if you ignore alternates, there's a chance that nothing happens, maybe thats why chalmers decided to just walk out, but looks like the alternate had already figured out his greatest fear, and when that happened it was already too late for him.
@@michaelaxelafton1611 Thanks for the explanation, makes sense now. Though, still funny to think that he's so used to it now that he can't be bothered to give a thought about it.
The moment of realization that something is not right when the real chalmers knocked, the implication of what inside the oven is, the reveal that seymour is actually the mosters. These are actually genuinely good horror elements lol
This has to be one of the best Steamed Hams videos I've seen. The moment the real Chamlers rang the doorbell, it become seriously unnerving!!! Turning the "isometric exercises" scene into Imposter-Skinner attempting to escape was incredible. What an edit!
Ok, not gonna lie, this was actually pretty creepy. The scene with Chalmers immedieately noticing something off with Skinner and running (or... walking) away unironically gave me the chills Edit: somehow this video also kept me awake at night
If you ignore the Alternate, and don't show it any sign of fear, it will be forced to leave you alone. Whether it worked or not for Chalmers is debatable.
@@walterblanco5046 It's true. An Alternate's primary weapon is psychological warfare. They'll say anything to make you lose your cool. Undesirable Knowledge, they call it. They tell you something the human mind can't understand, and it drives humans insane, and in most cases, they'll do the Alternate's job for them and [RUclips Friendly] themselves. That's how they get you.
@@walterblanco5046 from what I've heard, alternates can't actually harm you directly, but they can psychologically torture you until you game end yourself, usually be disseminating "knowledge that is not desired to be known", which then causes MAD I'm guessing the Alternative in this case hasn't had the chance to ensnare the real Chalmers
I like how at the end you see the alternate skinner whisper in chalmers ear like how the alternates are all knowing and would tell people something so horrible they’d typically end their life unless they weren’t phased by the truth. Very nice touch
I know many people have already done this, but it makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside writing my interpretation of what happened sometimes. Principal Skinner invited Superintendent Chalmers over for some Steamed Hams. An alternate took the form of Chalmers and got there early, and either somehow misheard or just presumed Skinner meant "steamed clams", but was confused to find out Seymour calls hamburgers steamed hams. Then, someone rang the doorbell. Seymour was confused and so was the alternate, until the person said "Well Seymour, I made it." And then he realised. The person infront of him might not be Chalmers. He probably didn't get to leave his seat, since the blood was on the table, and the alternate killed him and put his body in the oven. Chalmers walked in and gave a smile because he thought Seymour was ok, but caught on to his weird behaviour and tried to leave, but got killed. The house is now burning and the alternate makes its way up to Agnes' room and kills her. Edit: removed mistakes and reworded parts.
If you listen closely to "Chalmers" ringing the doorbell at the start of the video, you can notice that he rings it much later than the original Steamed Hams video, which hints at him being an imposter from the very start
The fact that someone could take a dead, overused meme, and combine it with a severely oversaturated horror genre, and somehow still produce something legitimately unsettling, speaks both to the talent of the creator, and the effectiveness Analog Horror still has when done well.
The fact that there was no ruined roast, nor can you see Skinner’s body when the real chalmers enters the dining room, implying that the alternate hid skinner’s body in the oven to burn it.
I never thought such a poweful edit could be made while still mostly using the original video and audio, just rearranged. Truly one of the best Steamed Hams edits of all times
Not gonna lie the bell ringing scene was really clever and the ending with the house burning has a completely new vibe! Massive props to your editing skills
Recontextualizing Chalmers catching Seymour trying to go to Krusty Burger to Chalmers catching Alternate Seymour trying to escape was a brilliant move. Absolute masterpiece.
Chalmers would survive in any other horror scenario. Without a word he turned and left, ready to leave this shit behind the moment his suspicions of something being off were confirmed.
This... is truly genius is some way... It's a silly little comedy scene, that's not even that long, and with an original concept you've managed to turn it into something that deserves to be studied. It even has subtle acting... That eerie silence as Chalmers is knocking on the door and the alternate just says "... I see"
It's funny that before Seymour dies Chalmers sounds so disappointed like he wanted it to be longer than this bit the real Chalmers came in fast. The alternate wanted an "incredible luncheon" but never got it and killed Seymour because he didn't get it.
Oof. Something about Agnes screaming her son’s name and begging him for help is blood-chilling. Almost reminds me of Mufasa’s death. Crying out for help, unable to understand why this person who loves you… they do love you, don’t they? But why… why are they just standing there? Letting you fall. Letting you… *burn*
It's amazing attention to detail that fake Chalmers doesn't stop immediately when the doorbell rings, he's still talking for half a second before they both realize what they just heard
i like how this version implies the alternate became skinner and then deliberately set the house on fire with the oven to hide the evidence & kill anyone else in the house.
this feels like one of those creepypasta lost media clips people would post as "Forgotten VHS tape recordings" on their channels and then it would randomly get recommended to you

@@williechops I kinda wanna see a broken Chalmers in the style of the Recent Mandela Catalogue Entry.
"Skinner...I may not have ever seen eye too eye with you, you were an odd Fellow...but I respected your Service, and what I did see in you was a Man with Potential to do good, (if managed properly.
"I'm...so sorry that I let you down. That I couldn't do anything at all. I knew something was off, I should have torn that damn door down, I could have, but instead I just stood there!
I'm sorry Seymour, I'm so sorry! To You, and your Mother!"

This one is so good that it is worth saving directly into the hard drive.
The best way to save a memory core
Right
I wouldn't do that if I were you
Don't let it become lost media when youtube shuts down in 20 years
how
I love how at 1:25 the alternate stops his explanation like he just got sick of it and thought “you know what, I’m just gonna kill him.”
“I don’t need to explain a thing. C’mere!”
Honestly it’s super terrifying when the alternate Chalmers “I see” and gets straight to the point with killing Skinner when the real Chalmers rings the doorbell. Clearly it wasn’t his goal but he had to clean up the mess that was already spilling out of control.
It's rather funny to see Chalmer's almost no shit giving expression when he sees the fake Seymour, as if this is just Tuesday for him.
If i remember well, if you ignore alternates, there's a chance that nothing happens, maybe thats why chalmers decided to just walk out, but looks like the alternate had already figured out his greatest fear, and when that happened it was already too late for him.
@@michaelaxelafton1611 Thanks for the explanation, makes sense now. Though, still funny to think that he's so used to it now that he can't be bothered to give a thought about it.
*an
@@topsykrets2438 NEEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRDDDDDDD.
I thought he was trying to run away.
I want an animator and VAs to redo this whole fucking idea, and make it absolutely fucking terrifying
I'd love that
Get it so that when Chalmers walks into the kitchen, he sees Impersonating Chalmers climbing out the window. "GOOD LORD". Then it ends.
Wake up Seymour
WAKE UP
WAKE UP
WAKE UP
WAKE UP
Need this
Meat canyon could do it!
The moment of realization that something is not right when the real chalmers knocked, the implication of what inside the oven is, the reveal that seymour is actually the mosters. These are actually genuinely good horror elements lol
Seymour wasn't the monster.
He's a victim.
Yeah, I’m pretty sure the monster was chalmers, then after skinner was dealt with it took his form to try and trick chalmers
the premise is amazing too, letting the monster into your house without even realizing
Whats a moster
This is based on a horror ARG. The first Chalmers is an alternate, he killed Seymour and took his place.
His instant realization was creepy yet so funny
This has to be one of the best Steamed Hams videos I've seen. The moment the real Chamlers rang the doorbell, it become seriously unnerving!!! Turning the "isometric exercises" scene into Imposter-Skinner attempting to escape was incredible. What an edit!
Ok, not gonna lie, this was actually pretty creepy. The scene with Chalmers immedieately noticing something off with Skinner and running (or... walking) away unironically gave me the chills
Edit: somehow this video also kept me awake at night
If you ignore the Alternate, and don't show it any sign of fear, it will be forced to leave you alone. Whether it worked or not for Chalmers is debatable.
@@kingcamelot1395 i heard lore that alternates also mock and belittle the pray, not sure if its cannon though
@@walterblanco5046 It's true. An Alternate's primary weapon is psychological warfare. They'll say anything to make you lose your cool. Undesirable Knowledge, they call it. They tell you something the human mind can't understand, and it drives humans insane, and in most cases, they'll do the Alternate's job for them and [RUclips Friendly] themselves. That's how they get you.
@@kingcamelot1395 wholesome
@@walterblanco5046 from what I've heard, alternates can't actually harm you directly, but they can psychologically torture you until you game end yourself, usually be disseminating "knowledge that is not desired to be known", which then causes MAD
I'm guessing the Alternative in this case hasn't had the chance to ensnare the real Chalmers
I like how at the end you see the alternate skinner whisper in chalmers ear like how the alternates are all knowing and would tell people something so horrible they’d typically end their life unless they weren’t phased by the truth. Very nice touch
This is legitimately scary. I was not expecting it to be this good holy shit.
I know many people have already done this, but it makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside writing my interpretation of what happened sometimes.
Principal Skinner invited Superintendent Chalmers over for some Steamed Hams. An alternate took the form of Chalmers and got there early, and either somehow misheard or just presumed Skinner meant "steamed clams", but was confused to find out Seymour calls hamburgers steamed hams. Then, someone rang the doorbell. Seymour was confused and so was the alternate, until the person said "Well Seymour, I made it." And then he realised. The person infront of him might not be Chalmers.
He probably didn't get to leave his seat, since the blood was on the table, and the alternate killed him and put his body in the oven. Chalmers walked in and gave a smile because he thought Seymour was ok, but caught on to his weird behaviour and tried to leave, but got killed. The house is now burning and the alternate makes its way up to Agnes' room and kills her.
Edit: removed mistakes and reworded parts.
If it helps, I enjoyed your narration/interpretation. 🍺
If you listen closely to "Chalmers" ringing the doorbell at the start of the video, you can notice that he rings it much later than the original Steamed Hams video, which hints at him being an imposter from the very start
This dude is the definition of overanalyzing
I suppose it takes a bit of mental preparation to try to get free food not meant for you.
I love how when Not Seymour blows its cover, the real Chalmers just turns around and leaves like "Nah, fuck that"
Creepiest part of this is the impersonator coming to have lunch only for the impersonated to knock at the doorstep
is it really
Uh duh
why dont you describe more of the video for the folks at home having a hard time using their eyes
@@awsomebot1 wdym? the point of this comment isn't to describe the video, they're saying what they think the creepiest part was
@@katie-ampersand except it wasnt just a part, it was literally what the entire video was about
That little detail at the beginning of him repeating what hes saying in little snippets instead of one whole take really puts the cherry ontop
The fact that someone could take a dead, overused meme, and combine it with a severely oversaturated horror genre, and somehow still produce something legitimately unsettling, speaks both to the talent of the creator, and the effectiveness Analog Horror still has when done well.
I like how even the alternate isn't impressed
starts kinda weak but turns into an unforgettable luncheon
The fact that there was no ruined roast, nor can you see Skinner’s body when the real chalmers enters the dining room, implying that the alternate hid skinner’s body in the oven to burn it.
I never thought such a poweful edit could be made while still mostly using the original video and audio, just rearranged. Truly one of the best Steamed Hams edits of all times
He was not prepared for such an incomprehensible luncheon.
I like how this meme has never died over the 4+ years it's been alive
Yeah but people rarely made these type of video ever since
This is phenomenal, really creative, well done!
That's a good one, the 'Help, HEEEEELP' at the end in cherry on top. Let's hope this one blows up, definitely deserves it.
S p o i l e r
Seymore: [Turns into a literal demon]
Chalmers: [Exits room calmly]
another detail is that the shapeshifter didn't say "despite your directions" because he didnt get any
Not gonna lie the bell ringing scene was really clever and the ending with the house burning has a completely new vibe! Massive props to your editing skills
Yeah this was a really good one. Let's boost it!
This is actually really fkn good horror , not only is it expertly put together but it genuinely unnerves me when ever I watch it.
Recontextualizing Chalmers catching Seymour trying to go to Krusty Burger to Chalmers catching Alternate Seymour trying to escape was a brilliant move. Absolute masterpiece.
0:09 I like how skinner says “uhh” at the beginning because chamlers was acting weird when he got there
I felt my heart drop when I heard the doorbell rang
Honestly was waiting for a jump scare, secondly this has a Mr hopps feel to it *shivers*
Who?
What a great horror movie
Love the fact that Alternate Chalmers must have thought: "Why tf is he answering so damn nervous and stupid... does he know?! No way he knows.."
Chalmers would survive in any other horror scenario. Without a word he turned and left, ready to leave this shit behind the moment his suspicions of something being off were confirmed.
I love how The Thing was like “…I see.” when it got found out.
I like to see more people do Mandela Catalogue edits of cartoons like this, would be interesting to see.
0:38 this freeze frame has no right fitting so perfectly
The Springfield catalogue
*sees the horrors*
*leaves calmly*
I actually got goosebumps when skinwalker Skinner's face stretched. Great job with this one my friend.
Wasn’t a skinwalker. Was an alternate, based on the mandela catalogue
I would say Alternates are WAY more terrifying
This one is a horror masterpiece. Can someone tell me anything about why the "steamed hams" thing is suddenly a thing? I like it, I'm just curious.
The steamed hams meme started 4 years ago and has kept getting edits since. The scenario just lends itself to memes really well, I guess
@@hamburg4034 It does. Thanks.
I would say it started because people genuinely just loved the scene, started making their own edits, and it blew up from there
No no… we’re having steamed chalmers
This... is truly genius is some way... It's a silly little comedy scene, that's not even that long, and with an original concept you've managed to turn it into something that deserves to be studied. It even has subtle acting...
That eerie silence as Chalmers is knocking on the door and the alternate just says "... I see"
I like how the alternate thinks the idea of steamed hams is ridiculous and just goes ahead with his own steamed clams idea.
This is the most intense one yet
It's funny that before Seymour dies Chalmers sounds so disappointed like he wanted it to be longer than this bit the real Chalmers came in fast. The alternate wanted an "incredible luncheon" but never got it and killed Seymour because he didn't get it.
Oof. Something about Agnes screaming her son’s name and begging him for help is blood-chilling. Almost reminds me of Mufasa’s death. Crying out for help, unable to understand why this person who loves you… they do love you, don’t they? But why… why are they just standing there? Letting you fall. Letting you… *burn*
Happens a lot where i come from
“GOOD LORD WHAT IS HAPPENING IN THERE?!”
“the birth of our true saviour.”
theres honestly something so terrifying about the “i see” in this
"Spy creepin' around here!"
It's amazing attention to detail that fake Chalmers doesn't stop immediately when the doorbell rings, he's still talking for half a second before they both realize what they just heard
The way he just walked out. Me too man.
i like how this version implies the alternate became skinner and then deliberately set the house on fire with the oven to hide the evidence & kill anyone else in the house.
this feels like one of those creepypasta lost media clips people would post as "Forgotten VHS tape recordings"
on their channels and then it would randomly get recommended to you
