45:37 when he reaches the top of the lighthouse, he says to himself "It's gonna be okay, it's all going to be okay". That's the hint that he is scared of heights. Although the other stuff with the balancing etc. on the way there doesn't make sense, I agree
i have an intense fear of heights, mostly due to my lack of depth perception. Things that are close look to close and things that are far look too far down. I would honestly be too distracted to notice. Climbing im fine with because i’m not looking down, but a bridge freaks me tf out.
@@Gofakara_100 Right? Same here. And on top of it all, it's usually viewers of the playthrough that can spot more things than the player since their focus is so fine tuned while playin the game, yet she *still* spots things I have to rewind to catch. Literal god gamer Gab. Be the perfect rebrand back to GG Gab. xD
Lol exactly what I was coming here to say I watched Sean's playthrough first and am now coming back to watch Gab and see what is different and that's cracked me up.
1:31:40 laughed at this part because clearly the check in dates are all written by the guests, and the check out dates are all clearly written by just one person. I guess you could argue that guests don’t write the check out dates themselves, but I’d like to believe this is a clever hint that they’re all dead and the killer “checked them out” themselves 😅 good on them for keeping track! A place for everything and everything in its place I guess.
I am visually challenged so I often am looking at the clear text for notes during these videos and my lady pointed out that they were all written by the same person on the checkout. I would have missed it because I was just reading it from the right hand side
As a legally blind watcher, I really really appreciate the bigger text, it makes the game so much more enjoyable for me. I'm so excited for this series ❤
I have astigmatism in both eyes, but different angles because my body hates me. My diopter is only -0.75, but my astigmatism is so crazy that I can't read fonts for shit. So I really appreciate it too! So many games I'm like, "I can't read that!" On my 47 in tv...I'd have zero hope handheld on my Switch...
Hey, Gab. Can't wait to see how you fare in keeping everyone alive for this one! You asked about the re-used face models so here's a breakdown of the ones here. Mark= Junior (Man of Medan), Young Vince (Little Hope) and Kurum (House of Ashes) Jamie= Fliss (Man of Medan) Charlie= Older Anthony (Little Hope) Du'Met= Alex/Brad (Man of Medan) and Nick (House of Ashes) Marie= Julia (Man of Medan) H. H. Holmes= John/James/Joseph (Little Hope) and Dar (House of Ashes) Jeff: Sailor (random NPC in Man of Medan) and Reverend Carver (Little Hope) H. H. Holmes Actor (the guy in that recreation scene with Kate)= Charlie (Man of Medan), Dennis/Daniel/David (Little Hope) and Joey (House of Ashes) Judge Actor= Joe (Man of Medan) and Jason (House of Ashes)
I always forget the beginning people in this game tend to die 😂 I was so shook by the bathroom scene in the beginning before being like “Oh yea. It is a dark picture game.”
I played this game on release and it was so buggy that it was almost impossible to take it seriously. None of the characters' eyes moved with their head and they just stared lifelessly into your soul, and before Jeff fell into the spikes, his neck did a complete 180 and he just walked around like that for a bit. 10/10.
It actually unintentionally heightens the horror. It becomes obvious that the game's going to make me lead the way in some sections but a suddenly mute, unmoving, crew member or members really does sinisterly shatter the illusion that the person I'm playing has more chance of surviving with one or two other crew around than if they were on their own.
So excited for another Dark Pictures! I don't know if Gab caught it, but when she was looking at the ledger with the past three groups of guests, each had their own distinct handwriting, but the check out dates were ALL written in the same handwriting! Even between the groups it was the same, not as if one person from each signed everyone out. There's ONE PERSON signing out for EVERYONE!
When Gab made the subtitles bigger, I was watching on my TV because my phone died and I said "thank you so much gab! I'm blind as a bat" also started my elden ring playthrough and I kept thinking "gab did it, I can to" and she really influenced me to keep going. So thanks gab 🙂
I loved the inclusion of the skeleton at the very beginning, and the ‘dark pictures’ being medical diagrams because Holmes was super scared of the skeleton in his doctor’s office as a kid, and some other kids shut him in a closet with it as a prank. People said he came out of that experience different. Maybe that knocked a few screws loose? Then as an adult, a few of his victims he basically harvested their skeletons and sold them to doctors for money. Grave robbing for that purpose was pretty common at the time, so buyers didn’t ask too many questions.
Marie is Julia Jeff is Carver(priest from Little Hope) Mark is Junior/Kurum Charlie is Anthony(as the bus driver) Jamie is Fliss Holmes and Du’Met are John/Dar The judge is Jason Trial Holmes is Daniel Ferryman is Alex/Brad/Nick The little girl is Mary Erin and Kate are unique models
Marie sounds like Jessica from Until dawn, but it's not the same actress. She is voiced by Kitty Archer and Jeff is voiced by Edward Bluemel. Both of them are fairly new to the voice acting scene, and acting in general. It's really nice to see new talent being showcased in big franchise games. Holmes is voiced by John Dagleish, he's been in more stuff, mostly as minor characters, so I'm sure being a huge lead in this game is something he was really proud of.
I'm used to binge-watching your different TDPA series' and the fact that I have to wait now just hit me like a pile of bricks. I can't wait for the next episode, I'm so excited!
Theory time: I think Joseph Morello was the guy that got everyone on the island, his whole family except him and one of his daughters survived (the whole "my wife is dead" ordeal you overheard and the burnt shoe you found) he probably has to stay and find the next victims for the yellow raincoat person. Maybe the old lady is the one steering the whole thing as she must've been there since it was a care home?? We shall see, the theories are already brewing in my mind I'm enjoying this a lot so far!!
yeah i was thinking the same thing! especially since he says he had a wife and has a daughter, and the email mentions bringing a wife daughter and brother. So maybe whoever is lured onto the island takes the name of du'met and then lures more people in under that name before they can leave?
Evelyn picking up the first coin. “what is that?” (me who watched Sean’s play through first…casually hearing in the back of my head) *a dabloooooooooooooooooon*
I was born and raised in Chicago and never heard of HH Holmes till I randomly read Devil in the White City riding the L to work everyday, there are so many good documentaries on him, I love how jazzed you are about this piece of history, loving the playthrough!
I wanted to watch her play through but she just talks way too much and it's so annoying all her constant comments and noises even comments not to do with the game. And I like people that talk during games but she just talks so much constant non stop I cannot even enjoy the game or listen to the characters talk and listen to other stuff in the game. And like I said I don't mind talking but this constant non stop talking is too much and annoying you cannot even enjoy game.
@@ravenc4912 I disagree and I love her play style and commentary. I’ll be honest, not really sure why you felt the need to comment on a video you probably didn’t watch. But hey, whatever.
I love that this game is based on H.H Holmes. I didn't find it creepy when I heard his story years ago but now it's very disturbing, not knowing that many deaths were being placed at a hotel. One of the seasons of AHS was a inspired by it, half of it of course.
huh, i thought it was inspired by the cecil hotel, i mean considering that ramirez (nightstalker) stays there in the show and he was known to frequent the cecil, definitely remember reading about that, guess it couldve taken inspiration from both??
So I just finished binge watching all of Gabs dark pictures anthology playthroughs and finally caught up to this one. I'm really pumped to see her reactions to this game! Have fun watching everyone! Also for a different fun take on H H Holmes I recommend reading this YA novel called capturing the devil by Kerri Maniscalco!
I was waiting for this one, I did not watch anything before your video came out to make sure I discovered it with you! Welcome back and happy you are feeling better! ❤️
Yeah I really like this one too with how the characters kinda like in the House of Ashes grow together and have really fun moments where they interact or kick butt!
you have to read the "Devil in the White City" by Erik Larson. it is currently being made into a movie. i think Keanu Reeves has been cast to star in the movie. it takes you into the world of the Great Chicago's World Fair. the book uses this back drop to tell the story of Holmes. it is soooooooo gooooooood. the audio book as well is just as good.
And the city walk tour is great. You can actually go to the site of the hotel in Englewood, Chicago. It's a decommissioned post office building now. It still has a portion of the castle's basement and parts of the building are still original, but the remaining building is about 1/5 the size of the original.
Also, am I the only one who ALWAYS gets chills and insane goosebumps from Oh, Death? And just... God, the evolution of that song, from Until Dawn to today is just... *chef's kiss* There's no better video game song. Period.
It’s originally a southern Appalachian folk song dated back to a Baptist preacher in the early 1900s, but was probably cobbled together from older folk songs. It really is an amazing song, and if you haven’t heard the Shakey Graves/Monica Martin version, you should. It’s my personal favorite.
@@auggiet8380 I honestly didn't know it predated these games. I just played the... this game ending version, lol. Don't wanna spoil it for the Gabs. About 4 times in a row.
@@LampDoesVideogame yep, there are A LOT of covers of this song. The first time I heard it was in the movie O Brother, Where Art Thou? And there is a cover of it used when they first introduce Death in Supernatural. I don’t think I have ever heard a version that I didn’t like, it’s just a great song.
Potassium Hydroxide has a number of uses in chemistry but for this game's story I would say one listed in other uses in wikipedia fits the bill: Chemical cremation.
Yay! Happy you’re doing well Gab! I played it when it launched and i somehow managed to keep them all alive 😂 but it was great! I’ve been waiting for your play through before I start another round so I can try out new paths 🥰
The mocap for the faces are quite strange, but that’s nothing new for dark pictures. In any case it’s always interesting to hear your thoughts. Story is quite intriguing, and I’m curious to see how your choices go
Oooh and Kate is new. I don’t recognize Erin from anywhere but I know the rest. Mark is one of the warrior dudes from Ashes, Charlie is the bus driver from Little Hope, and you’re right Jamie is Fliss from Medan. So cool how much they can change them.
Judge is Jason House of Ashes but with moustache. I think the groom we see first is also Jason but with different facial hair. I recognize them by their jaw 🤔
@@cookieinhaler I think he's not Jason tho. He is in Hidden Agenda as Adam Jones & in Little Hope that one guy at the court who accuses that little girl Mary if I remember correctly EDIT: I mean the groom not the judge
I just realized that the story is all three famous hotels, rolled into one: Bates Motel, Overlook Hotel, and the Murder Hotel from Chicago. I'm really excited to see where they take this and spin it.
I have been evading this game and waiting for you to upload since it came out. I have been teased but managed to avoid all spoilers like Neo dodging bullets in The Matrix, because I knew the wait would be worth it. It was worth it. So glad you are feeling better, my horror queen!!!!!!!!!!!
Woohoo!! I so hope you're able to do a good girl and bad girl run! I watched one playthrough where they got almost everyone killed on accident and I was scolding the screen 'When Gab Smolder gets people killed, it's on purpose.'
Paul Kaye(Charlie Lonnet) has one of the most relaxing voices I have ever heard honestly. P.s. My cat's name is Cassiopeia and it is rare to hear it spoken anywhere so that was a pleasant surprise.
I wonder if when Season 2 comes out, there will obviously be events that happen in game that are influenced by the save file you have in Season 1. Since Season 2 is not out yet, the only thing I can compare it to is like when you are doing the Curator Cut the character you do not control will react based on the decision you choose for them in the main game. The reason why I bring it up is because when Gabs plays these games, she typically plays them three times: Vanilla, Save All, Kill All meaning her Kill All file is the most recent file
I'm currently sick with my own bout with the flu, so I'm definitely going to spend the next few days bingeing everything. Your channel is so chill and relaxing.
I just finished watching Wendy play co-op with Celine and it went from hilarious to scary to frustrating (because of major bugs). But one thing I kept thinking during their playthrough is: how the heck are you supposed to save anyone??!! 😂 I can't wait to watch how Gab will do on her first run, and really hope I get to join her "Save All, Kill All" streams!
Also, Charlie the old guy was the war guy at the start of man of Medan, in my medical opinion guy, Mark is the same as Junior from man of Medan again, and Jamie is fliss, Erin and Kate and the little girl are all new characters? that couple, the lady was Julia, and the guy was reverend carver from little hopeeee. You’re 100% correct on the ones you said though like Jamie and the Holmes guy x
I have a theory. I think the person who brought the group there is not actually Du'met but Joe Morello. If we see the register of check in and check out, Morello family seemingly left the day before the show crew came, which is the case for all the guests before Morello as well. So what if out of the entire Morello family, only Joe and one of his daughters survived and the real Du'Met let them go only if they lured in new victims? That would explain why they ran away immediately after the crew got in. Also the taxidermy guy might be the real Du'met who is a huge fan of H.H. Holmes and has recreated/renovated into the Murder Castle.
Little fun fact: Granthem Dumet is an anagram of Herman Mudgett, which is H.H. Holmes' real name. Love the enthusiasm, always love watching your playthroughs.
So glad you are back and feeling better! Just got sick myself (covid) and there's nothing I want more than to cuddle up with a bottle of headache medicine and watch your videos all day long
In 2017, amid allegations Holmes had in fact escaped execution, Holmes's body was exhumed for testing led by Janet Monge of the University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology. Due to his coffin being contained in cement, his body was found not to have decomposed normally. His clothes were almost perfectly preserved and his mustache was found to be intact. The body was positively identified by his teeth as being that of Holmes. Holmes was then reburied.
this is my first video watching Gab and I love it. Massive fan of Jack and saw that she was doing this series too. They have similar humors in some ways but she's so deadpan and I love it so much. I will say, she's a lot more put together at the jumpscares than either jack or I are so far LOL I jumped when Jamie was too close to Kate😂😂😂
Found this channel bc I was randomly really in the mood for Silent Hill 4 and I'm enjoying your series on it from a few years ago! 😄 Your joy then and now is infectious. I'm glad you're feeling better, Gab!
I've been rewatching a lot of these, mainly cause I love all the choices being made. I'm really looking forward to an all death of the Devil in Me, all the different choices and ways it can happen/reactions. It's really relaxing to listen/watch this series, and i can't wait for the next game!
About the charachter models 😊 -The couple in the prologue is Julia from Man of Medan and Carver fron Little hope. -H.H. Holmes is John/James from Little Hope. -I think actor Holmes is Charlie from Man of Medan prologue and Daniel/Dennis from Little Hope. -Charlie is old Anthony/Andrew from Little Hope. -Jamie is Fliss from Man of Medan. -I think Du'met is Alex from Man of Medan. I like how they use previous models, it feels like actors returning for different roles 😊
@@ChocolateThaiE Jamie is voiced by Gloria Obianyo where as Fliss is voiced by Ayisha Issa, who is also the face model for Fliss. All voice actors in the previous games have also been the faces for the characters. This time they seem to have used voice actors new to the games but faces of previous actors with features slightly altered. Such as Jamie's short pink hair instead of how she has long hair as Fliss. Charlie seems to look exactly the same as John from Little hope but they still have different Voice actors
I don’t know if you’ll read this, but if you want to learn about H.H Holmes, check out the last podcast on the left and their HH Holmes series-they actually revisit an original series they did because of the misinformation surrounding him and his status as “Americas first serial killer”. I feel like they are right up your alley too!
Holmes was hung in Moyamensing prison in Philadelphia. There is a grocery store where the prison once was. I like to imagine that the frozen section is haunted by his ghost when I shop there
Since Gab mentioned Holmes not actually being “that bad” of a murder. I thought I should clarify some things. The issue with H.H. Holmes is we cannot factually confirm his kill count because of when he was caught and the time period in with he was operating. Missing persons reports were nonexistent, tracking didn’t really exist, it was incredibly difficult to verify much of anything. The actual hotel only contained a few hidden rooms here and there, mainly to hide furniture Holmes had bought on credit and did not intend to pay for or return to the creditors. As the home burned down, many people prefer to believe the falsified floor plans showing the place as intentionally built for murder and concealment of such murder. It’s absolutely true a lot of the lore behind the “murder castle,” was exaggerated by tabloids and such, likely not helped by Holmes himself insisting that he was innocent and had been possessed by Satan at the time. Back then these sensationalized journalistic pieces were often put into record as historical documents leading to a lot of confusion today when we can no longer reference the original building, hear Holmes’ original testimony and that of others, nor read police records of the time. Holmes confessed to 27 murders (some of whom were verifiably alive at the time) and while only 1 was able to be confirmed, he’s suspected of a total of 10. He was executed for them, but even if he wasn’t that shows you how reliable of a narrator Holmes was. The murders he was confirmed and suspected of had a clear and distinct motive, while those of the murders suggested by the murder castle theory really have no motive other than pure bloodlust and perhaps greed. While Holmes absolutely had greed, the murder he did commit and those he is suspected of don’t really show bloodlust, but necessity. He killed when he could tell his plans, lies, and delusions were beginning to unravel. For example, he’s confirmed to have murdered his business partner. He planned a scheme to falsify his partners death and collect his life instance, but when he couldn’t find a suitable body in time he simply killed him instead. Following, he’s suspected to have killed his business partners wife and kids over time as they each slowly realize Holmes spent in fact plan to reunite them. Holmes, to me, is simply one who believed himself to be smarter than the rest, likely suffered from delusions, and killed simply out of convenience, arrogance, and greed rather than bloodlust. He wasn’t even truly a serial killer, as he didn’t have a true method that made him unique if you separate him from the lore.
Love that Gab recognized Holmes and the murder Castle/hotel so fast! H.H. Holmes is interesting. He really was more of a conman and business man, rather than resembling a "typical" serial killer. He was detached, true, but he killed to collect on money and sell cleaned up bones to institutes... Plus, building a fancy death maze was quite the feat.
Rose Red was one of my favorite tv shorts I watched as a child, but I just remember it as a really long movie 😂 I’m just happy to hear it mentioned cause I’ve brought it up to many people and they look at me like I’m nuts
The reason the characters look familiar between the Dark Pictures series is because they do re-use models! They're sort of treated as digital "actors", and only need some editing/tweaking/adjusting to be used between the games. It cuts down on dev time and cost for Supermassive. I don't think all of these have shown up previously, but a handful *are* in Man of Medan and in Little Hope! The voice and motion-capture actors will change between games, though, so they aren't always voiced by the same people 🙂
I've been waiting for you to play this eeeeeee very excited!!! Can I also just say that the small detail of the dates of check-out being in a different handwriting than the check-in dates is 10/10, just shows that these people never really checked-out themselves. Am so excited for the next videossss
I LOVE THIS SERIES!! I cant wait to see how this goes!! Curator my beloved, i missed him 😭💖 Also, the house at the beginning? The taxidermy? The old woman? NORMAN BATES IS THAT YOU
I'm glad you're feeling well💗I've tried to watch other videos of playthrough The devil in me but I wanted to watch your videos first, so I waited patiently
I'm such a baby when it comes to these games haha, they spend so much time setting up the background of characters that I get too attached and then get nervous about if they'll die 🙈 They're mean. But hey, at least Gab always does a perfect run afterwards 😆
I know this is a super old video but I’ve started to really enjoy your videos because I like scary games. When you made the comment about “rose red movie by Stephen king” I haven’t heard that in awhile that movie scared the crap out of me when I was younger lol
I'm really excited for your playthrough! this is a thrilling game! The cast of characters are amazing with my favorites being Charlie and Jamie! Oh yeah and the Curator too XD
I absolutely LOVE that you know Rose Red. I was obsessed with that miniseries when I was younger and even have a dvd copy of it that I watch at least once a year. It's one of those stories that were kind of overlooked though so I was happy you mentioned it!
Lets goooo! I screamed with excitement once the guys said his name, hope this one is fun! I have been avoiding all spoilers and waiting for Gab's playthroughs
The chill that ran through me when I realized where all the items in the hotel store were from. By the time I had everyone on the island, I had a mix of Saw, Blair Witch, and Scream vibes. I’m so excited for the rest of the games this studio does
They have finally altered the run button, so that instead of increasing your walking speed by 1% you actually jog!! LOL It's also a LOT harder to save everyone in this one, with some choices being pure guesswork as to whether it will leave everyone alive... it IS possible to save everyone though, even though it may not look like it.
I’ve seen other people play through this game already but I waited for you to play it. Glad you’re feeling better now Gab !!! I had a nasty flu a month ago too and I’m thinking of getting the jab for it for next year
I am so happy more streamers are playing there games! I have binge watched almost all your videos of dark pictures games. As a side note, it’s exciting to hear the opening some conversation with death, finally show it’s performed live!

Mark: walks on a log across a chasm, climbs, all to get to the lighthouse
Mark 20 minutes later on the bridge:
I am afraid of heights
Maybe because he was distracted by the constant conversation 😅
I feel like that height wasn't as bad, the worst part for him wouldabeen the log, but he felt how unstable the bridge felt and got scared.
45:37 when he reaches the top of the lighthouse, he says to himself "It's gonna be okay, it's all going to be okay". That's the hint that he is scared of heights.
Although the other stuff with the balancing etc. on the way there doesn't make sense, I agree
There wasn't any drop under that log.
i have an intense fear of heights, mostly due to my lack of depth perception. Things that are close look to close and things that are far look too far down. I would honestly be too distracted to notice. Climbing im fine with because i’m not looking down, but a bridge freaks me tf out.
Can we just appreciate Gab's ability to spot the Curator at damn near every turn? I mean, holy shit. That's one hell of an eagle eye.
Suddenly her obsession with Observation Duty makes more sense.
Oh, I thought it was Holmes.

I third this! Thank you Gab for making this more accessible to visually impaired folks
Same as a mobile watcher. Even with her turning it up, it’s still very small on mobile, but at least visible. Definitely appreciated tho.

Even between the groups it was the same, not as if one person from each signed everyone out. There's ONE PERSON signing out for EVERYONE!

Ferryman is Alex/Brad/Nick
The little girl is Mary
Erin and Kate are unique models
Also the actor for Holmes in the beginning - is that Daniel?
Edit: not in the prologue, in the courtroom scene
@@louisep.9499 yeah
YAY I KNEW JASON RECOGNISED HIM RIGHT AWAY
@@kanonball it’s Jason with a mustache
So?
Marie sounds like Jessica from Until dawn, but it's not the same actress. She is voiced by Kitty Archer and Jeff is voiced by Edward Bluemel. Both of them are fairly new to the voice acting scene, and acting in general. It's really nice to see new talent being showcased in big franchise games. Holmes is voiced by John Dagleish, he's been in more stuff, mostly as minor characters, so I'm sure being a huge lead in this game is something he was really proud of.
I thought she sounded like Emma from the Quarry. But I guess she just has one of those voices. Either way she did a great job.
I'm used to binge-watching your different TDPA series' and the fact that I have to wait now just hit me like a pile of bricks. I can't wait for the next episode, I'm so excited!
Theory time: I think Joseph Morello was the guy that got everyone on the island, his whole family except him and one of his daughters survived (the whole "my wife is dead" ordeal you overheard and the burnt shoe you found) he probably has to stay and find the next victims for the yellow raincoat person. Maybe the old lady is the one steering the whole thing as she must've been there since it was a care home?? We shall see, the theories are already brewing in my mind I'm enjoying this a lot so far!!
I think the old lady is dead...that scene was very reminiscent of Psycho.
A taxidermist with a mother we don’t see yelling at him in a rocker, total psycho vibes!
yeah i was thinking the same thing! especially since he says he had a wife and has a daughter, and the email mentions bringing a wife daughter and brother. So maybe whoever is lured onto the island takes the name of du'met and then lures more people in under that name before they can leave?
@@melodiesblue2442 Yeah! Leave at least 1 alive to bring in the new ones
Evelyn picking up the first coin. “what is that?”

FAT STACKS'A DABLOOONNNSSS
I was born and raised in Chicago and never heard of HH Holmes till I randomly read Devil in the White City riding the L to work everyday, there are so many good documentaries on him, I love how jazzed you are about this piece of history, loving the playthrough!
YESSSS!!!! So glad you are feeling better, and SO STOKED to watch your playthrough of this! Let’s gooooooo!
I wanted to watch her play through but she just talks way too much and it's so annoying all her constant comments and noises even comments not to do with the game. And I like people that talk during games but she just talks so much constant non stop I cannot even enjoy the game or listen to the characters talk and listen to other stuff in the game. And like I said I don't mind talking but this constant non stop talking is too much and annoying you cannot even enjoy game.
@@ravenc4912 I disagree and I love her play style and commentary. I’ll be honest, not really sure why you felt the need to comment on a video you probably didn’t watch. But hey, whatever.
I love that this game is based on H.H Holmes. I didn't find it creepy when I heard his story years ago but now it's very disturbing, not knowing that many deaths were being placed at a hotel. One of the seasons of AHS was a inspired by it, half of it of course.
huh, i thought it was inspired by the cecil hotel, i mean considering that ramirez (nightstalker) stays there in the show and he was known to frequent the cecil, definitely remember reading about that, guess it couldve taken inspiration from both??
@@novas2905It’s a bit of both! The traps, moreso Holmes.
@@novas2905Also, Ramirez actually LIVED at the Cecil!
So I just finished binge watching all of Gabs dark pictures anthology playthroughs and finally caught up to this one. I'm really pumped to see her reactions to this game! Have fun watching everyone!
Also for a different fun take on H H Holmes I recommend reading this YA novel called capturing the devil by Kerri Maniscalco!
I was waiting for this one, I did not watch anything before your video came out to make sure I discovered it with you! Welcome back and happy you are feeling better! ❤️
You and me both! I loved Gab's videos on House of Ashes and was patiently waiting for her to play the newest DPA game 😊
This is personally my favorite DPA game to date. Hope you enjoy it, looking forward to the rest of the series!
@@DigiCentral sucks for you
@@DigiCentral Playing on PC and no bugs for me and I'm nearly done.
I was liking it a lot, but there were some parts that were a bit annoying.
Liked it the most too! Kept having the original Until Dawn feeling throughout. Which I found really nice!
Yeah I really like this one too with how the characters kinda like in the House of Ashes grow together and have really fun moments where they interact or kick butt!
I Like how Gab Picked The "Bath Milk" , Just Like Sean Did LOL
you have to read the "Devil in the White City" by Erik Larson. it is currently being made into a movie. i think Keanu Reeves has been cast to star in the movie. it takes you into the world of the Great Chicago's World Fair. the book uses this back drop to tell the story of Holmes. it is soooooooo gooooooood. the audio book as well is just as good.
Yes Keanu Reeves will be in that movie
And the city walk tour is great. You can actually go to the site of the hotel in Englewood, Chicago. It's a decommissioned post office building now. It still has a portion of the castle's basement and parts of the building are still original, but the remaining building is about 1/5 the size of the original.
Also, am I the only one who ALWAYS gets chills and insane goosebumps from Oh, Death? And just... God, the evolution of that song, from Until Dawn to today is just... *chef's kiss*
There's no better video game song. Period.
It’s originally a southern Appalachian folk song dated back to a Baptist preacher in the early 1900s, but was probably cobbled together from older folk songs. It really is an amazing song, and if you haven’t heard the Shakey Graves/Monica Martin version, you should. It’s my personal favorite.
@@auggiet8380 I honestly didn't know it predated these games. I just played the... this game ending version, lol. Don't wanna spoil it for the Gabs. About 4 times in a row.
@@auggiet8380 Well, shit, thanks for the rabbit hole to go down... I didn't even know the name of the band for the intro version, Khemmis.
@@LampDoesVideogame yep, there are A LOT of covers of this song. The first time I heard it was in the movie O Brother, Where Art Thou? And there is a cover of it used when they first introduce Death in Supernatural. I don’t think I have ever heard a version that I didn’t like, it’s just a great song.
No same here, it’s so moving idk I feel like it touches my soul or something
That freaking song is so epic. It makes me rock out everytime I hear it. And the guy coming through the doors like a boss. Just yes! Love it!
Potassium Hydroxide has a number of uses in chemistry but for this game's story I would say one listed in other uses in wikipedia fits the bill: Chemical cremation.
Yay! Happy you’re doing well Gab! I played it when it launched and i somehow managed to keep them all alive 😂 but it was great! I’ve been waiting for your play through before I start another round so I can try out new paths 🥰
The mocap for the faces are quite strange, but that’s nothing new for dark pictures. In any case it’s always interesting to hear your thoughts. Story is quite intriguing, and I’m curious to see how your choices go
Yeah, their facial capture technology is a bit dated and expressions aren't very good, but it's par for the course at this point.
Erin throwing absolute shade at Charlie was awesome! XD

Lake Michigan: Thank you once again for your support 🙏
Oooh and Kate is new. I don’t recognize Erin from anywhere but I know the rest. Mark is one of the warrior dudes from Ashes, Charlie is the bus driver from Little Hope, and you’re right Jamie is Fliss from Medan. So cool how much they can change them.
Judge is Jason House of Ashes but with moustache. I think the groom we see first is also Jason but with different facial hair. I recognize them by their jaw 🤔
Kate is played by Jessie Buckley, she’s in a couple weird little movies like ‘Men’ and ‘I’m Thinking of Ending Things’
Conrad, Andrew, Rachel, and Kate are modeled after their actors. Erin happens to be a new face model that'll probably be used again.
@@cookieinhaler I think he's not Jason tho. He is in Hidden Agenda as Adam Jones & in Little Hope that one guy at the court who accuses that little girl Mary if I remember correctly
EDIT: I mean the groom not the judge
@@subscider ah I see. I wasn't sure about him being the same face as Jason cause the Judge.
I just realized that the story is all three famous hotels, rolled into one: Bates Motel, Overlook Hotel, and the Murder Hotel from Chicago. I'm really excited to see where they take this and spin it.
I have been evading this game and waiting for you to upload since it came out.
I have been teased but managed to avoid all spoilers like Neo dodging bullets in The Matrix, because I knew the wait would be worth it.
It was worth it.
So glad you are feeling better, my horror queen!!!!!!!!!!!
This is so awesome! The first Dark Pictures game I'm catching as the videos are released! Can't wait to see what comes next, thanks Gab!
Woohoo!! I so hope you're able to do a good girl and bad girl run! I watched one playthrough where they got almost everyone killed on accident and I was scolding the screen 'When Gab Smolder gets people killed, it's on purpose.'
Paul Kaye(Charlie Lonnet) has one of the most relaxing voices I have ever heard honestly.
P.s. My cat's name is Cassiopeia and it is rare to hear it spoken anywhere so that was a pleasant surprise.
I wonder if when Season 2 comes out, there will obviously be events that happen in game that are influenced by the save file you have in Season 1. Since Season 2 is not out yet, the only thing I can compare it to is like when you are doing the Curator Cut the character you do not control will react based on the decision you choose for them in the main game.
The reason why I bring it up is because when Gabs plays these games, she typically plays them three times: Vanilla, Save All, Kill All meaning her Kill All file is the most recent file
I'm currently sick with my own bout with the flu, so I'm definitely going to spend the next few days bingeing everything. Your channel is so chill and relaxing.
Can't recommend the stardew valley and Nancy Drew let's plays of hers enough! Hope you get well soon :)
@@timeisaweirdsoup Thanks for the recommendations! I will definitely check them out, and thank you for the well wishes.
I just finished watching Wendy play co-op with Celine and it went from hilarious to scary to frustrating (because of major bugs). But one thing I kept thinking during their playthrough is: how the heck are you supposed to save anyone??!! 😂 I can't wait to watch how Gab will do on her first run, and really hope I get to join her "Save All, Kill All" streams!
Also, Charlie the old guy was the war guy at the start of man of Medan, in my medical opinion guy, Mark is the same as Junior from man of Medan again, and Jamie is fliss, Erin and Kate and the little girl are all new characters? that couple, the lady was Julia, and the guy was reverend carver from little hopeeee.
You’re 100% correct on the ones you said though like Jamie and the Holmes guy x
I have a theory. I think the person who brought the group there is not actually Du'met but Joe Morello. If we see the register of check in and check out, Morello family seemingly left the day before the show crew came, which is the case for all the guests before Morello as well. So what if out of the entire Morello family, only Joe and one of his daughters survived and the real Du'Met let them go only if they lured in new victims? That would explain why they ran away immediately after the crew got in. Also the taxidermy guy might be the real Du'met who is a huge fan of H.H. Holmes and has recreated/renovated into the Murder Castle.
If you play the full game, you'll find that Morello and his daughter were indeed only allowed to leave if he lured in new victims.
@@Picnicland by the time the dinner is over, they are likely dead. Because the lobby counter jumps from 178 to 180
Little fun fact: Granthem Dumet is an anagram of Herman Mudgett, which is H.H. Holmes' real name.
Love the enthusiasm, always love watching your playthroughs.
I knew it had to be an anagram! I just used the wrong name as the basis to unscramble.
Hurray! You're back on the mend!! We missed you for sure!
So glad you are back and feeling better! Just got sick myself (covid) and there's nothing I want more than to cuddle up with a bottle of headache medicine and watch your videos all day long
In 2017, amid allegations Holmes had in fact escaped execution, Holmes's body was exhumed for testing led by Janet Monge of the University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology. Due to his coffin being contained in cement, his body was found not to have decomposed normally. His clothes were almost perfectly preserved and his mustache was found to be intact. The body was positively identified by his teeth as being that of Holmes. Holmes was then reburied.
this is my first video watching Gab and I love it. Massive fan of Jack and saw that she was doing this series too. They have similar humors in some ways but she's so deadpan and I love it so much. I will say, she's a lot more put together at the jumpscares than either jack or I are so far LOL I jumped when Jamie was too close to Kate😂😂😂
YAY!!! I rewatched your Little Hope and House of Ashes this week in preparation for this playthrough!!! IM SO EXCITED
I like how they show it's a TV spot by changing the face model for Holmes from John/Dar to Daniel/Joey
Found this channel bc I was randomly really in the mood for Silent Hill 4 and I'm enjoying your series on it from a few years ago! 😄 Your joy then and now is infectious. I'm glad you're feeling better, Gab!
I've been rewatching a lot of these, mainly cause I love all the choices being made. I'm really looking forward to an all death of the Devil in Me, all the different choices and ways it can happen/reactions. It's really relaxing to listen/watch this series, and i can't wait for the next game!
About the charachter models 😊
-The couple in the prologue is Julia from Man of Medan and Carver fron Little hope.
-H.H. Holmes is John/James from Little Hope.
-I think actor Holmes is Charlie from Man of Medan prologue and Daniel/Dennis from Little Hope.
-Charlie is old Anthony/Andrew from Little Hope.
-Jamie is Fliss from Man of Medan.
-I think Du'met is Alex from Man of Medan.
I like how they use previous models, it feels like actors returning for different roles 😊
It's only the faces they reused, not the the voice actors who belong to those faces irl. It's odd because they do with all the other games
HH Holmes is also the same actor as Dar Basri iirc! :D
Jamie/Fliss has the same voice actor. She just used a “Caribbean” accent as Fliss.
Mark was what’s her faces boyfriend from Little Hope.
@@ChocolateThaiE I looked up the voice actors. They aren't the same va
@@ChocolateThaiE Jamie is voiced by Gloria Obianyo where as Fliss is voiced by Ayisha Issa, who is also the face model for Fliss. All voice actors in the previous games have also been the faces for the characters. This time they seem to have used voice actors new to the games but faces of previous actors with features slightly altered. Such as Jamie's short pink hair instead of how she has long hair as Fliss. Charlie seems to look exactly the same as John from Little hope but they still have different Voice actors
I don’t know if you’ll read this, but if you want to learn about H.H Holmes, check out the last podcast on the left and their HH Holmes series-they actually revisit an original series they did because of the misinformation surrounding him and his status as “Americas first serial killer”. I feel like they are right up your alley too!
Holmes was hung in Moyamensing prison in Philadelphia. There is a grocery store where the prison once was. I like to imagine that the frozen section is haunted by his ghost when I shop there
The post office where the murder castle was is supposed to be haunted
Glad you’re getting back to it! Spent this week watching all your old vids
Since Gab mentioned Holmes not actually being “that bad” of a murder. I thought I should clarify some things.
The issue with H.H. Holmes is we cannot factually confirm his kill count because of when he was caught and the time period in with he was operating. Missing persons reports were nonexistent, tracking didn’t really exist, it was incredibly difficult to verify much of anything.
The actual hotel only contained a few hidden rooms here and there, mainly to hide furniture Holmes had bought on credit and did not intend to pay for or return to the creditors. As the home burned down, many people prefer to believe the falsified floor plans showing the place as intentionally built for murder and concealment of such murder.
It’s absolutely true a lot of the lore behind the “murder castle,” was exaggerated by tabloids and such, likely not helped by Holmes himself insisting that he was innocent and had been possessed by Satan at the time. Back then these sensationalized journalistic pieces were often put into record as historical documents leading to a lot of confusion today when we can no longer reference the original building, hear Holmes’ original testimony and that of others, nor read police records of the time.
Holmes confessed to 27 murders (some of whom were verifiably alive at the time) and while only 1 was able to be confirmed, he’s suspected of a total of 10. He was executed for them, but even if he wasn’t that shows you how reliable of a narrator Holmes was.
The murders he was confirmed and suspected of had a clear and distinct motive, while those of the murders suggested by the murder castle theory really have no motive other than pure bloodlust and perhaps greed. While Holmes absolutely had greed, the murder he did commit and those he is suspected of don’t really show bloodlust, but necessity. He killed when he could tell his plans, lies, and delusions were beginning to unravel. For example, he’s confirmed to have murdered his business partner. He planned a scheme to falsify his partners death and collect his life instance, but when he couldn’t find a suitable body in time he simply killed him instead. Following, he’s suspected to have killed his business partners wife and kids over time as they each slowly realize Holmes spent in fact plan to reunite them.
Holmes, to me, is simply one who believed himself to be smarter than the rest, likely suffered from delusions, and killed simply out of convenience, arrogance, and greed rather than bloodlust. He wasn’t even truly a serial killer, as he didn’t have a true method that made him unique if you separate him from the lore.
Welcome back!! Glad you are feeling better! I was hoping you would play this, yay!
YES! I'm so glad you're feeling better now, and that you were eager to play this.
Love that Gab recognized Holmes and the murder Castle/hotel so fast! H.H. Holmes is interesting. He really was more of a conman and business man, rather than resembling a "typical" serial killer. He was detached, true, but he killed to collect on money and sell cleaned up bones to institutes... Plus, building a fancy death maze was quite the feat.
Ugh yes! I've been avoiding playthroughs of this, waiting for yours to come out but it's been so hard because the game looks SO good 🥰
Rose Red was one of my favorite tv shorts I watched as a child, but I just remember it as a really long movie 😂 I’m just happy to hear it mentioned cause I’ve brought it up to many people and they look at me like I’m nuts
The reason the characters look familiar between the Dark Pictures series is because they do re-use models! They're sort of treated as digital "actors", and only need some editing/tweaking/adjusting to be used between the games. It cuts down on dev time and cost for Supermassive. I don't think all of these have shown up previously, but a handful *are* in Man of Medan and in Little Hope!
The voice and motion-capture actors will change between games, though, so they aren't always voiced by the same people 🙂
I've been waiting for you to play this eeeeeee very excited!!!
Can I also just say that the small detail of the dates of check-out being in a different handwriting than the check-in dates is 10/10, just shows that these people never really checked-out themselves. Am so excited for the next videossss
I LOVE THIS SERIES!! I cant wait to see how this goes!!
Curator my beloved, i missed him 😭💖
Also, the house at the beginning? The taxidermy? The old woman? NORMAN BATES IS THAT YOU
Yes. Been se excited to watch Gab play this. I hope she’s planning on doing normal/save/kill all play throughs.
Yay!! Welcome back! I'm glad you're feeling better! :)
So glad you feel better
I'm glad you're feeling well💗I've tried to watch other videos of playthrough The devil in me but I wanted to watch your videos first, so I waited patiently
I'm such a baby when it comes to these games haha, they spend so much time setting up the background of characters that I get too attached and then get nervous about if they'll die 🙈 They're mean. But hey, at least Gab always does a perfect run afterwards 😆
Been waiting for this!! Glad your playing this 😊
I know this is a super old video but I’ve started to really enjoy your videos because I like scary games. When you made the comment about “rose red movie by Stephen king” I haven’t heard that in awhile that movie scared the crap out of me when I was younger lol
YAAAAAAY! I was waiting for someone nice to play this to watch a playthrough and I'm so happy it's you!
I'm really excited for your playthrough! this is a thrilling game! The cast of characters are amazing with my favorites being Charlie and Jamie! Oh yeah and the Curator too XD
Ok, that's this evening's viewing sorted 🥳 Glad you're feeling better! 💖
I've been waiting for your playthrough of this! Glad you're feeling better 🤗
When I saw the title of this video I thought it sounded familiar. Then when I realized I got SO EXCITED.
I can't wait for this whole series! 😍
I absolutely LOVE that you know Rose Red. I was obsessed with that miniseries when I was younger and even have a dvd copy of it that I watch at least once a year. It's one of those stories that were kind of overlooked though so I was happy you mentioned it!
Lets goooo! I screamed with excitement once the guys said his name, hope this one is fun!
I have been avoiding all spoilers and waiting for Gab's playthroughs
The chill that ran through me when I realized where all the items in the hotel store were from. By the time I had everyone on the island, I had a mix of Saw, Blair Witch, and Scream vibes. I’m so excited for the rest of the games this studio does
Happy to hear you're sick no more!
it doesn't seem like they made much progress on the character models...
glad to see you back
Yay! Finally! Waited this game from you for too long 🥹
Love that you can watch multiple people play the same game with different endings
Thank you for playing it! ;D And glad you are feeling weel now! ;)
I love this I just finished binge watching Sean’s now I’m gonna binge watch yours I love seeing the difference in what yous both choose 😀🤍
Welcome back, Gab! So excited for this!
YES! I waited for your playthrough. I'm glad you're feeling better.
They have finally altered the run button, so that instead of increasing your walking speed by 1% you actually jog!! LOL It's also a LOT harder to save everyone in this one, with some choices being pure guesswork as to whether it will leave everyone alive... it IS possible to save everyone though, even though it may not look like it.
I've only seen one playthrough so far and everyone was saved. It'll be interesting to see some deaths 😬
@@nunpho They must have used a guide o have cosmic level luck LOL
@@madquest8 no, they got the game early so just lucky. There were a few near misses though 😂
I cannot wait for the rest of this series. My wife and I are already hooked. Glad you are feeling better
I’ve seen other people play through this game already but I waited for you to play it. Glad you’re feeling better now Gab !!! I had a nasty flu a month ago too and I’m thinking of getting the jab for it for next year
I am so happy more streamers are playing there games! I have binge watched almost all your videos of dark pictures games. As a side note, it’s exciting to hear the opening some conversation with death, finally show it’s performed live!
The perfect combo, Gab and the newest Dark pictures games. So excited!
YEEESS! I'm glad you're feeling better 😊 I was waiting to see your playthrough, yours are definitely the most enjoyable to watch ❤️
yayyyyyy so exciting!!! hope you're feeling a lot better gab 💕
YESSSS, i was hoping that you would play this!! so excited to see the progression of this game
