The watching statics part hits hard because I actually did that a lot as kid lol. It's nowhere near scary though. At the time I was obsessed with Courage the Cowardly Dog to the point of memorizing episodes, so sometimes I just stare into the statics and replay the episodes inside my head, and it feels like I could see the show playing behind the statics
it might not be scary from your perception, but imagine being the parent that sees their kid staring intently at static on the tv and the kid just smiles chuckles at the screen- 💀💀🖐
Me and mom used to see it I found it scary at first but then I started liking it what I was very scared of hyperspace monkey go because I did not know it was real till in recently and in one episode I think the main characters chest got injured and robotic parts were exposed that really freaked me out
When I was a child I used to love watching the show and reading the books of Madeline. However, I'm convinced I was traumatized by the episode/book where Madeline has to have her appendix removed. There's a scene where Ms. Clavel ascends the stairs, repeating the words "Something is not right", while Madeline is crying in pain. I had a light outside of my bedroom that cast a shadow which resembled a nun (like Ms. Clavel). I used to have night terrors of Ms. Clavel running up the stairs repeating the line from the book/show. I'll never forget the fear of running past the shadow to wake up my mom. Sorry for the rant, great video!
I remember something about Madeline. It was probably the movie but it was something about it. I was around 7-8 when I saw it. But when I rewatched the episode you were talking about. It was not that scary as you said, I imagined it had loud crying in pain as she descended the tall building. But yea it is a little disturbing I get what you mean.
Dang I used to love it since I was in kinder I remember watching it on Netflix [used to be on there in 2012/2013?? I can't remember] with my dad really late when my mom was asleep. Good times
Slenderman is a great example of a false memorie as well. He was created in some sort of contest or experiment on how things spread throughout the internet (or something like that) and people started remembering seeing him as children when they were playing on playground.
Also to get rid of false memories you need to, run your (high frequency background) (memory brain state) or Also called sensory memory, while remembering something to remember remembering a memory. Or, to get rid of it, use the rare Live-memory-state so if the memory feels like there are manny tangent feelings/vibes it’s false. I can prove this because the memory doesn’t feel right, nothing fits, I felt two different vibes, my memory was later found out by me to be 2 tv shows. my mind mashed them together, The tv show I mixxed up, without context on the two either to shows, Are spiced and some other similar Canadian one.
I had this rare brain state as a kid, to have it you need to have a good mental health, and intelligent growth mindset. If you don’t use either of these, it’s hard to get it up and running. Idk if there’s suck thing as a live-memory brain-state. But I had it. I proved it that I heard a song called Tms, nothing was wrong with the memory due to logic. I kept hearing the song on radio, and it kept reminding me of that one night. I heard it for the first time, when I was 3 years old. After fact checking it was 2007, And the internet mystery began since 2007. I remember being three, the memory is of me in the back of my dads black truck, driving down to orrilia. I asked my secondary mother in the passenger seat, as the sun went down on the long road. And why the sky had a glow, she said it was by the city, it looked like a purple aura. And that might of been the night or some month similarly close Where at my grandmas farm, I ask for my favourite “rock song” I called this a rock song. That cars all night song song. I also recall hearing Tms just before going into Toronto, in the grass fields, that are now covered up in outlet stores. The time was 11:00 when it almost over. I remember playing a ds new super Mario game. I love the water sewers level. One memory I had, was of me going into a complex that I cannot recall where, but my grandmother was their Kate ring, and in the vehicle I was annoyingly pressing my obscure toy shotgun. The toy is obscure, I loved it so much, it got taken away 😢
I recall a memory that I thought nothing of, and whenever I asked my family about it thye didn’t know what it was, Now after, I knew why I felt a weirdly strange familiar connection to my family, it was because as a kid my cousins, watched me when I was 5 under, And the shows I recall are that weird space-website digital show, and that show called resses. You ever recall the weird tv show memory without context on how you can even recall that tv show? Or dream…. Then later that visual ear worm, dies down?
Speaking of false memories, I have a very vivid memory of going to ballet lessons as a really small child - I remember wearing the outfit, having to put my leg on the bar on the wall, I very distinctly remember the room - it had a nature mural painted on one wall. I casually brought it up to my mother a while ago only to find out I never went to ballet lessons and she has no clue what I was even talking about.
I have a very clear memory of going into an abandoned building with my dad and sister and some of our neighbors to watch fireworks on the roof. I remember the power was still on, but most of the lights were off. The rooms were mostly bare of furniture and kinda dusty, we took the elevator up and set up lawn chairs on a gravely flat roof. There weren't a lot of buildings around it. When we left, our neighbor needed to use a bathroom and something scared her and she shrieked when she left, but it was probably just because it was dark. I'm gonna ask my dad tomorrow of he remembers this at all, but I'm not sure I want to know lol. It's a weird memory and i kinda just like holding on to it
I very distinctly remember when i was about 8, my mom put me on her lap in the car. We were only a few minutes away from home and she wanted me to steer (she was helping, of course). But after saying i didnt know the way, she took me off her lap and drove home. As soon as we got home, i said that i could do it next time, and she had NO RECCOLECTION of that event, even though it was onky a few minutes prior. So i just kept on living my life up until now. No matter how many details i give, she doesnt remember at all and denied it ever happening. so ??????
@@hushfur i have a similar memory of being in the middle of nowhere and my dad was driving somewhere, for some reason we had stopped and my mum had me sitting on her lap in the front seat. Dad got back in and we kept going, I remember it being like the middle of western australia but i didn't go there until i was at least 8 and i was no more than 2 in this memory, also before my siblings were born my parents never took me anywhere other than to visit friends who lived in a built up area for no reason to drive in the middle of nowhere??? I also feel like there was a reason i was on my mums lap, its such a weird and vivid memory that makes no sense, also sorry this is so long
I remember watching a cartoon as a child which ended with four children gave up a quarter of their lifespan for their best friend. It really upset me. It still weirds me out now. For years, no one seemed to know what I was talking about. . . I googled a ton of different things. . .then finally. . ."The Halloween Tree". I still don't know anyone who has seen it.
HOLY SHIT! I HAVE A COPY OF THE HALLOWEEN TREE ON DVD MY OLDER SISTER LOVED IT. didn’t recognize the plot, i was probably too young, but when you said “the halloween tree” i immediately knew something clicked. yes, my grandmother had that on DVD. she had a lot of very underground stuff. like the halloween tree and the ketchup vampires. i cant believe that just got brought up, i literally forgot that existed.
That movie messed with me. My roommate is obsessed with weird, cheap, bad, and obscure movies and shows. He was ecstatic to find that online to show us for our annual Halloween party marathon one year.
i was OBSESSED with this story when i was like eight, and out of curiosity i looked “candle cove” up and found the channel zero thing. freaked me out so i refused to look at my tv for a while JAJFJSME
@@HannahTheHorrible It is A Great Creepypasta but My Favorite Creepypasta is 1999 please PARDON My Language but Mr. Bear Scares The ever LOVING SHIT out of Me A Man Who dressed in A BearSuit Who Kills Children and Eats Their Body parts and Sacrifices Them to The Devil
My weird memory of a tv show was this sitcom the adults watched. I think Seinfeld or Home Improvement? Something like that? It was a Halloween episode that I only saw on once when it was a new episode. One of the main characters was dressed as a butcher or something for a Halloween party, and every time the blood got too dry he'd kill another of the characters. Everyone was telling him it was a great costume and the blood looked so real, and I think he was killed by the police at the end but maybe not? The Next Week On (whichever show it was) segment at the end was the laugh track playing over empty sets because all the characters were dead. I assumed I fell asleep and dreamed most of it until I heard the adults all talking and laughing about it the next day. Thing is every person in my friends, and family I ask about it remembers the episode, but remembers it being a different show.
Ever since I found out humans taste like red meat this is one of my fears. No really according to cannibals we taste similar to red meat and are placed in the same category. I'm not a cannibal so I can't confirm that but a decent number of this cannibals are butchers as well.
Personally, I think it's better if the screaming episode was a broadcast test or an equipment test or something that was aired accidentally. I think it grants the idea of the show's existence more legitimacy than just "spooky ghost insanity episode oooo be afraid"
The detail that tipped me off that this was only a story was the mention of "channel 58." The televisions of that time had a knob that had only 13 channels. Some televisions, but not most, had a second knob that contained some higher numbers. Being able to tune into something above the regular 13 was a rare thing because most of the channels were just static. In most places, even most of the main 13 channels didn't have a station tied to them. My family TV was able to get 5 clear channels. Sometimes 6 if the weather was agreeable. If this story was real, the characters in the story would have mentioned the strangeness of the ability to get a clear picture regularly on such an obscure channel. People from that era casually talking about tuning in "channel 58" during the early 70s would surely have had a lengthy string on that topic alone!
Fun fact: the writer of this is also behind the analog horror series local 58, about a strange TV channel with supernatural occurrences. From there we can infer its in the same universe, and Candle Cove was shown on it Edit: oops, she mentioned it in the video! Don't mind this then sdhkjhfdxcv
Oh yes I remember the one at 8:50 ! It was the Haunting Hour, I think, and if I'm not wrong that episode was about a toy company that made dolls that looked exactly the same as the customer, and this girl wanted one so bad, but when she finally got it, the doll slowly turned into a real girl, and the girl slowly turned into the doll. So the doll wanted to turn into a flesh and bone human replacing the owner girl and nobody would notice because they simply looked exactly the same. You just unlocked a whole hidden childhood memory of mine.
I remember the mother being obsessed with the doll as well. I turned off the episode and never went back the second the doll started stroking the mother's cheek. Nope.
I highly recommend you check out the animated short film "Alma" I believe it's from 2009 and it also features a creepy doll that looks like the main character.
Late to the party, but wanted to share: I have this super clear memory of my wife and I on a road trip, visiting the town I went to high school in and seeing my friends. We met up with several old friends and I showed her around all the places we used to hang out; a park, a cofee shop, and a few cool stores. Thing is, my wife and I hadn't met when I took that road trip. It's wild to know beyond a doubt that something you recall so clearly never happened.
Also late but I experience this regularly as well; I think there is a part of our minds that categorizes the importance of that person to us and adds them into our memories. I have memories of going to see movies in 2015 with my girlfriend and we didn't meet until 2018
For 20 years, I've been intent on never missing my mom's birthday, because the year my son was born, I called my mom on her birthday, forgetting her birthday, and telling her she had to let me and my new baby move in. After realizing I forgot her birthday that day, I swore I'd never forget again. Yesterday, I was recounting this fact, and realized - my mom's birthday is 9 days before my son was born. I moved back in with mom when my son was a few weeks old. There is no way this fact I've lived my life by for 20 years, ever could have happened.
I remember when I was about 9 or 10, my family had one of those old wooden big TV that was a floor tv but only the audio worked,not the picture.I would go downstairs,at a certain time of the day and turn on the TV and Pippi longstocking cartoon would be on.Always the same part of the same episode.I could only here it,not see it bc let me remind you the picture didn't show.but that creeped me out.that happened for about 3 months straight!!! Creepy right??? Sincerely IRMA LILIANA from Chicago Illinois
Omg that is so creepy!!! I remember I had one of those super old floor wood TVs too, we got at a garage sale. Pretty sure all those type of TVs are haunted. Thanks for sharing!
I was a kid in the 90s and early 00s but I swear when I first found Candle Cove online it triggered some vague memories of a similar TV show and the video recreations of the creepypasta play out extremely similar to nightmares I had when I was little. It's so very well done and really taps into universal experiences
Ok but that one show the Haunting Hour that was similar to goosebumps traumatized me. When I was in like fourth grade my friend told me about how she watched the show and had nightmares bc of the doll girl. I liked scary stuff so I watched it and tbh that episode wasn’t that bad. However, me and my siblings kept watching the show and eventually we got to an episode about Big Yellow, which was a school mascot. And let me just tell you, I have not been the same since. Idk what it was about that episode but it was just sick and me and my brother couldn’t sleep for the next week.
same i stopped watching after that one episode I think called dreamcatcher where these girls go to a summer camp, and this one girl kept getting nightmares about this one creature, and it ended with the mean girl getting trapped in her dream and a very scary creature popped out it had black long hair and its body was white I think. and it told her she can never escape, it was so creepy i had to watch a barbie movie so I can sleep at night.
I REMEMBER THE HAUNTING HOUR!!! does anyone remember an episode of like a girl was in a princess palace or something and she got trapped there and like a dragon ate her?? I don't remember I was so young but my brother and I didn't sleep for days we were sooo scared
I remember watching a show as a kid called “The Boohbahs” and it terrified me. To quote my mom when I had asked her about the show; ‘Every time the characters would come on screen, you would scream and hide in your room until the show was over.’ To this day they still creep me out (even though it stopped airing in like 2008) with their weird bodies and big eyes. (If you can’t tell, I don’t like them)
I remember Boobahs, it came on just when I was too old to enjoy that kind of thing (maybe I remember wrong but I thought it was for preschoolers and younger) and for some reason I thought the Boobahs were the children of the Teletubbies and the show was intended to be like a replacement/reboot of the teletubbies. I remember thinking the Teletubbies was sooo much better, like a "kids these days" kind of moment. Lol
Oh god, I remember boobahs! I also remember playing games on the PBS website. The entire thing was really weird and surreal, looking back, but five year old me just saw colors and thought it was fun to watch.
I love this creepy pasta definitely one of my favourites and I love how you talked about it like it was a real thing at first haha. Another great example of a creepy "how was I even allowed to watch this as a kid?" Kids show is a show I was obsessed with as a child called Grizzly tales for gruesome kids. That show looking back was all kinds of messed up but I loved it.
8:49 holy shit when she started saying it was a show from 2010 to 2014 I realized I used to watch kid shows around that time and seeing this clip bring back way too many memories that I wish I could forget I don't know whether to thank you or go huddle in the corner for a few hours
A show that scared me as a child was actually you showed that Disney aired in 2010, my babysitters a vampire. There was an episode where a plant took over the school and it terrified me
On the subject of false memories, I have an incredibly strange one for ya. You ready........I distinctly remember from when I was around 2 or 3 years old, looking under my bed and seeing A HUGE anthropomorphic pink bunny staring at me. She looked almost like either a Muppet or an HR Pufnstuf character and just waved at me. I have always known that this never really happened, despite how vividly I remember it the whole thing was clearly just a dream. If if was like a typical ghost or gray alien, I guess I could open my mind to that. But a Muppet!? Come on, that stuff is clearly just a work of fiction! Lol I actually forgot about that "memory" for years until just last week, that bunny appeared in ANOTHER one of my dreams all these years later. I often watch whatever is playing on [adult swim] before I go to bed and in my dream, she was a new mascot that the channel introduced. She now had the name Sarah and would appear regularly in their signature between commercial bumpers. Man, the human mind sure is crazy, isn't it?
1visualfxguy oh my gosh. That is very very creepy! If I had that dream as a kid I don’t think I’d ever be the same 😂 Have you ever seen The Haunting Hour? It’s a kids show by the Goosebumps creator, the one I show the clip of in the video of the killer doll. There’s an episode of that show called “the Mascot” or something like that and it is SO disturbing. Lol. It reminds me a lot of your dream.
@@HannahTheHorrible Somehow that dream never scared me. In fact, I thought my dream bunny was really adorable. I've never had a problem with most puppets and costume characters, even the infamously creepy ones like the NHL character Gritty. For some reason the only mascot type characters that creep me out are the ones that resemble any sort of primate (monkeys, apes, sasquatches and yetis, etc). Real and cartoon monkeys have no effect on me in case you are wondering, just the puppet ones. Yes, I am well aware of how weird that last sentence sounded btw lol.
Dude I had the same thing happen to me. I was like four, sitting in my bed late at night and I stared at what looked like a person in a giant pink bunny costume. I think it was Easter Eve as well. I don't remember what I did or how long I stared at it. never brought it up to anyone and mostly forgot about it. It felt too real to be a dream so I think it must have been my one and only sleep paralysis demon.
kinda same, but scarier idont know what the frick was up with my mind, but i was seeing stuff one night that was spooky,, like the dog looked like a,, blood dog or something. there was more thanjust that that night, but that was the most scary one i remembered. another one was alot like yours, i was VERY young. i remember the zunifetish doll (i think that was the name) was underneath my parents bed,, just there. i also saw him under the sofa, like at the bottom where you can view it. it felt veryy real. i havent really told anyone about these, cause it was just my imagination. i saw the trilogy of terror alot when i was very young, so i was terrified of scary things like that (also caused alot of nightmares of the doll being a giant basically killing everyone.) sorry if written poorly, its 3am.
I was born in the late 70s and there were a lot of weird, creepy, low-budget kids shows that would air from the late 60s, 70s and early 80s. I was in Canada and in particular the low budget Canadian shows could be super weird. To anyone who grew up around that time, it does lend an air of believability.
oh. my. god. I have never heard of this and I LOVE it. That clip you added at the very end - FREAKING NIGHTMARISH. This is all just pure genius and honestly now I want to quit writing books and write internet conspiracy theories about shows that maybe never existed instead.
hahahah you could write SUCH an amazing novel based off of this show!! The clips that exist of the show are insanely creepy. But honestly some of the real childhood shows are even scarier!
@@HannahTheHorrible I honestly have had like five different novel ideas just from watching your videos! But yeah, you're right about the real shows being creepier. I mean, even movies like The Neverending Story or Labyrinth, while not exactly terrifying, are just...unsettling? In a way that kids' movies today definitely aren't. (So much of it was just Jim Henson, I swear. I really appreciate CGI but we lost a level of creepy when Hollywood stopped using his puppets.)
I never hear people talk about how crystal cove has potential to give us a deeper understanding of the Mandela effect. It personally leads me to believe our brains use other events to fill in gaps of our memory. What is likely going on, is another less memorable pirate show played around that time, and our brains use this story to fill in the gaps
Actually, i have a memory that has stuck with me for a really long time. When i was younger, i would watch Archie's Weird Mysteries, which was a show about Archie and his friends trying to solve mysteries of the paranormal. Anyways, i remember this episode that had something to do with a ghost on a ship or something. It was late at night, and i was young, so i got really scared. I closed my eyes because the ghost appeared on screen, but i could still see the screen. My eyes were closed and I could still see the whole room and the tv. I never felt more terrified of my own sight before. I opened my eyes again, and it seemed like i never closed my eyes, but i did. I don't know what happened, but it scared me nonetheless.
I'm so glad I found your channel, I love this stuff! How could you forget courage the cowardly dog? Any list of creepy kid shows must include that show XD
I had a reverse Candle Cove experience: I was sure I had imagined a super creepy show from my childhood that turned out to be real. It was a German show called "Die Gespenster von Flatterfels" and it used to air super early in the morning so my parents never saw me watching it. Due to it featuring a creepy ghost puppet and airing at like 6 AM, I assumed I must have dreamed it up. Imagine my surprise when I found it online :D
I've always loved creepy shows, even as a kid, my favourite was Are You Afraid of the Dark, it gave me a few weird dreams and a fear of the dark corner of my bedroom at night, but I just couldn't stop watching it
Yeah, that was an animated adaptation of a story with the same name. It was one of three animated short segments in an episode of, I think it was, “Mary Duval’s bedtime stories”. It was themed around spooky things in closets, under the bed and in the attic.
I love the whole Candle Cove story and I wasn't aware it had expanded as much as it had until now. This is so cool. Thanks for the great video, Hannah. By the way, I am currently down with Covid (for the second time) and I've just been binge-watching all your stuff the last few days. You've really made my sicky time so much more pleasant with your delightfully creepy content.
Man, i still remember the episode where they found that container in the shape of a heart with wish granting candy inside. That siren queen or whatever she was was freaking scary, especially as she got more and more deteriorated, but the scariest part was immediately after the last candy was used and she essentially started shaking and i think she was screaming as well?... That part genuinely scared me and even gave me nightmares... Ah, gotta love remembering creepy flap jack crap at almost 2 am
@@skyc-1375 yeah, the entire show just had this really creepy air to it, but I think the episode that freaked me out the most was the one about the cat. Remember, the gray cat with hollow eyes and sharp teeth? Man that cat was creepy!
Svengoolie,the original one scared me a lot bc when I was about 5 or 6, my two older sisters bell who was 9 and cio who was 11 at the time would scare me with Svengoolie.They would tease me and sing a song they made up and sing Svengoolie dadadat! They were mean and bullies.Im 41 RN and till this day,I'm afraid of Svengoolie!!! Sincerely IRMA LILIANA from Chicago Illinois
Probably the oddest thing for me was I once had a dream about Candle Cove, but I wasn't ever told the actual story. One of the kids at my school had said it was a Disney ride that was creepy (though perhaps they were talking about the Pirates of The Caribbean ride??). I remember very little about the dream, but it was very dark. Kind of like a misty sort of darkness, a dim blue color shining through the fog. It was definitely on a pirate ship, but I don't remember any specifics about characters or anything. Either way, still a creepy little dream that this video reminded me of!
The Haunting Hour. I remember watching that show every single time it came on when I was around 9. I remember getting really upset when the show no longer aired even though it gave me nightmares after watching each episode
there was this norwegian show that got created in 2007 called Skrimmel Skrammel. The show was about 5 guys who all met on this magical land called Skrimmel Skrammel. Some of the stuff that would happen is that one of the character's would lose something, and then they had to ask this statue for help, called mr mister yåså (pronounce mr mr yausau). He was so scary, because his design was very dark in color, he had this gaping mouth, glowing red eyes, and everytime he was on screen, there was this low growling voice, and he had a really dark voice. He also had this globe that he would spin, and everytime it landed on a country, steam would come out of it. Then they would have to sing a song related to the lost item, and in the style of the country. Then there was also Gammel kanten (The old edge). You see, even though Skrimmel Skrammel was a magical place, staying there too long was dangerous because of The old edge. You see, most of the time The old edge was just an edge. It didn't do anything to the character's as long as they didn't fall over it, but it they did ever fall over, they would turn over a 100 years old. And staying in Skrimmel Skrammel too long was dangerous, because after a while The old edge would start to lure them closer to the edge. One time, they stayed there so long that one of them fell over. They managed to save him, but it was still very creepy
it for sure wasnt a kids movie, but i remember having a fever-dream like experience w this movie called \the cell, with Jennifer Lopez. It scared me so much as a young one and it took me years to figure out what i watched. Parents be wildin'
There was this one thing that absolutely scared me to death as a little kid and it was…. An episode of pingu. The episode in question is called something like “pingus nightmare” and the whole episode is super abstract and uncanny. It starts off with Pingu falling asleep and waking up in his bed (he’s dreaming) and his beds kegs grow all long as it walks around. Then, for some ungodly reason, the creators of the show decided to put a literal JUMPSCARE in the episode by having this giant fucked up and horrifying looking seal just. Peak its massive head over the horizon. It goes on to tease pingu and eat his bed while manically chuckling. That shit… I remember when it first came on and the seal appeared I ran out of the room so fast and just cried and screamed. I had nightmares for years, lmao
@@ivyblack2209 IT WAS WAY TOO MUCH FOR KIDS LOL I’m pretty sure the episode got pulled from some networks and there was a revised version of it rereleased
OH MY GOD I THINK THAT CREEPY DOLL CLIP WAS GOOSEBUMPS! That episode TERRIFIED ME of American girl dolls and honestly it’s still so horrifying why was I allowed to watch that??!!?!!
actually, it was rl stine the haunting hour if im remembering correctly. there are reuploads on youtube of it! it was a very scary show for me when i watched it when i was younger
oh my god goosebumps... i never actually watched it as a kid, but when i went to psych residential, we watched EVERY episode. every single one. so now when i think of goose bumps i think of residential lmao
8:52 I was 4-8 in 2010-2014 and that show freaked the shit out of me. ESPECIALLY that one part where the parents are sleeping and the girl and her older brother had set up a camera in their room so they could catch it moving and the doll gets up from where it was laying next to the mom (she had gotten attached to it because it was the ‘well behaved’ version of her daughter) and it walks off the screen and then she literally moved back into frame like a jumpscare. It was so scary, I had nightmares for weeks.
The screaming episode sounds like an inside joke among producers that was never intended to be aired, similar to the incredibly violent unused title card for an adventure Time episode.
I love this creepypasta It's one of my all time favorites I did look into whether or not it existed and I found no records of its existence I also found out through a RUclipsr who covers a lot of creepypastas that the "screaming episode" used stock audio
Anyone else watch 'Grizzly Tales For Gruesome Kids' growing up? It was traumatising. That and 'Round The Twist' had its fair share of traumatising episodes. The haunted doll episode really stuck with me especially 😭
When you spoke about memories flooding in from childhood something instantly came to mind. That episode of Invader Zim when Zim discovers he needs human organs or everyone will find out he's not human so he precedes to collect organs from the children at the school and replace the organ he stole with a random object. For some reason I've always been very disturbed by that episode! It's just so unsettling.
You look so pretty in this video!(you always do, but it looks like you’ve done something different with your hair or makeup, or maybe it’s the top you’re wearing) i love remembering creepy childhood shows, books, songs.
The two "scary shows" I loved as a kid were goosebumps and takes by the campfire, also I think I remember watching an episode or two of tales from the crypt.
This wasn't a kid's show, but Tales from the Dark Side was one of the scariest shows I watched as a kid. Scariest movie, Trilogy of Terror. That killer doll's face still haunts me
The older kid shows you did name, I remember fondly. Also, that one from 2010ish I remember watching a few years back. That was a really interesting and well-done series. That clip was bizarre because it was from an episode about a little girl who had a doll made of her hair and it was like becoming her. It was insane. I loved it. I love weird and creepy shows though. lol
I LOVED So Weird. Still love So Weird, and Goosebumps, and Ahh! Real Monsters! oh my god, I remember R.L. Stine's Nightmare Room, I think is what that last clip is. But I think my absolute favorite besides So Weird, is Are You Afraid of the Dark?
Angela Anaconda always freaked me out but I grew up watching all the scary shows lol. Tales from the Crypt cartoon and Beetlejuice cartoon, Goosebumps, Are You Afraid of the Dark (literals since the premiere). Scary Salute Your Shorts (Zeke the Plumber) and Hey, Dude Halloween episodes were so good.
Beetle juice creeps me out so much. I’ve seen some very scary horror movies and Beetlejuice scares me more hahah. He’s just soooo weird and creepy. I am definitely going to look up the other things you have listed here though! I haven’t heard of a few of them.
7:07 so basically my greatest example of this is when I was younger I saw my mom watching a version of “if you give a mouse a cookie” where the mouse ate the child’s mom?? Recently I saw a clip of a robot chicken episode of the same concept but the ending was different. In my dream the mouse could never be stopped and it got bigger and bigger but in the robot chicken episode a swat team killed it? I think I caught my mom watching it and went to bed and my subconscious finished what I saw?
Not saying it was the scariest show ever as I was a very anxiety prone child (and ironically am now an aspiring horror writer) but I remember how some of the puppets in Between the Lions freaked me out, mainly the dancing pants guy (Artie Smartypants?) I still have his creepy song stuck in my head. There was also one of the Pocahontas movies that had a jester character who was just demented looking and even googling his image again as an adult years later I was still like "absolutely no this was not okay for children"
Candle Cove is by far my favourite creepypasta. I first stumbled upon the website when I was around 11 and I had nightmaressss about the show for like a week. It was so cool and creepy, and I’m still amazed that I could have been affected so much by it. It’s beautifully written, and it’s modern enough for it to have some belief in it
Your videos are amazing, I'm so glad that I found your channel! Thank you for such interesting and well-researched videos. Is there anything that fans can do to support you?
Hi Mikayla! Thank you so much for such a lovely comment. Making these videos is so fun for me! To answer your question- “Liking” my videos as you watch them is always a HUGE help! Or, if you’re so inclined, sharing them with a friend or group who might also enjoy them is very much appreciated as well. Again thank you so much!! ❤️❤️
I honestly wish Channel Zero would have lasted longer. Imagine if they could have covered other creepy pastas. The other show you talked about (with the doll trying to kill the girl) was also created using RL Stines (Goosebumps creator) book series.
It is extremely relatable. I had several creepy memories from 90s/2000s tv shows and couldn't find out if it was real until years after. Like I remembered an episode about housewives sleeping in tupperware boxes to remain young: it actually came from Eerie Indiana. And don't get me started on Are you afraid of the dark, cause a lot of memories actually came from that show! It's amazing that the internet helped us to remember those. There truly was a golden age of teen/children creepy horror shows
5:49 bro that scene looks so familiar that it’s terrifying I remember the doll smashing the mirror with the hammer and I was scared of dolls since then I would see my toy box full of Barbies and scream and cry…… god the 90s was evil
Okay so I remember watching this stop animation show as a kid in the early 2000s, after extensive searching, I found out it was a short film called "Not Without My Handbag" I watched it in my 2nd grade class but never finished it because the teachers thought it'd be too scary for us, then later played Horton Hears a Who. I thought Not Without My Handbag was a short before Horton Hears a Who but they were separate films. I've tried searching for what format the teachers could've gotten Not Without My Handbag, can anyone help with that, on how the film was distributed? That film scared me as a kid, but I saw it all recently and it's just as creepy as I remember
There are a lot of people who think this is real, even today. Kris Straub have my respect as a cartoonist. This is the most fun creepypasta ever made! And i loved your channel , hi from Brazil!
I'm a Australian who grew up primarily in the late 2000s to the early 2010s and i grew up with a show called Grizzly tales for gruesome kids. I think it was british and it was about kids being naughty and getting brutally murdered or hurt. If you remember there's still episodes on here on youtube. But like, the animation style was so weird and creepy. I remember an episode where a kid swore so a hairdresser cut her tongue off? And honestly the intro song haunted my nightmares. It depicts a young boy going into a movie cinema and getting a ticket to see a move, he's handed popcorn but it turns out to be beetles. The intro was in this creepy tim burton esk claymation but the actual show was in a weird dodgy style. I don't know, it was just creepy. I rewatched one of the episodes a few weeks ago and its still just as creepy. Does anyone remember? so weird. Honestly sometimes i feel like us Australians just got Canada and Britain's failed kids shows. But hey no we can make kids shows just look at dirt girl world! :(
The BBC network aired CAPTAIN ABERCROMBY. it was the genuine puppet style pirate themed show from 2002. I remember it to be creepy with some strange scenes. Footage was lost cause the studio caught fire. Everyone else is lying about remembering a supposed pirate puppet show if they think it was candle cove in the 80s.
I don't have any memories like that, since my parents closely monitored my media consumption as a kid and I wasn't allowed to watch anything my parents thought was too scary for me.
I hadn’t heard of this creepy pasta, but did watch it on Channel Zero. Weirdly, the doll and the ship were very familiar to me, like I had seen them before. It’s always nagged at me a bit. I was hoping your video would explain where I’d seen them before, but now I’m more confused than ever. 🤔
Holy crap At timestamp 8:50 I had serious nostalgia I would literally watch that episode of the show over and over again! It’s called Lily D and It is actually written by RL stine, the creator of goosebumps. It low key gave me nightmares.💀
I want to see Hannah go over “So Bizarre” or the one she doesn’t name with the doll in a longer video. I’m not familiar with either show and would be totally down for a whole video about these real shows.
I can't remember what it was called, but when i was maybe 8 or so there was this movie on Disney channel about these people from another planet who were actually BUBBLE PEOPLE? I remember it really unnerving me for some reason, and now looking back it still does lol
I remenber being young, from like age 1 to 6, there was this show called "oobi", I think. I don't remember much about it, but I know I would hysterically cry and scream when it played on Noggin(old nick jr). I remember that there was an episode with a weird noise, a dark background, and weird lighting. My mother and grandmother never saw anything wrong with it, however. I dunno if it's just a child thing, or maybe it was visible, and my family wasn't in the room, or were preoccupied. Anyone else remember??
My disturbing childhood TV show memory is this: When I was little in the last 1970s-1980s there was a live action show based on the fairytale Rapunzel starring the puppets of Mr Roger's Neighborhood and some of it's human costars. The Lady Elaine puppet was the mother/witch and the human woman that was always in Make Believe Land played the princess. There was a scene where the human prince is pushed out the tower window and his eyes are scratched with thorns and then he crawls around in the desert bleeding and crying out for several minutes.
Yes, hell yes. When I was very young, in the late 70s and early 80s, I lived in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. I used to watch Sesame Street as all kids did, on PBS. When there was an interruption in the broadcast, a black and white image of the main SS characters would come on screen. The image horrified me for some reason. I would scream bloody murder and cry. Snuffleuppagus off to the left was this floating head and his long trunk, no body. I had dreadful insomnia for years, as every time I closed my eyes to go to sleep, Snuffleuppagus would slowly form in my vision off to the left. Every night. I would only fall to sleep from pure exhaustion. I have tried, as an adult, to find the same image to see if I am equally horrified as an adult, but I have not been successful (and that is possibly a very good thing, who knows? I could be back into the cycle all over of that eerie black and white head and trunk forming in my mind when I closed my eyes).
yea the first couple episodes of r.l. stines the haunting hour with the doll actually traumatized me. it made me so afraid that my dolls would come kill me. one night i even woke up having a panic attack and since then i've had to sleep with a lamp on in my room.
Thank you for pointing out the detail that "Candle Cove" was broadcasted on Local 58. While "Candle Cove" has become associated with the paranormal, both it and Local 58 have the connection of being sinister media you weren't supposed to see - including the connection of a dark "Show for Children" starring a skeleton. I doubt that Kris planned for these connections from the beginning, but it's insanely good writing and world building nonetheless.
I mean it was “mainstream” af but The Teletubbies. What creeped me tf out was the vacuum that would go around sucking up the messes in their little bunker or whatever. Shit you not I straight up believed as a child that the vacuum was unhinged and would come out of the TV and suck me up too and well, goodbye lil Kate, parents would never know what happened to me
I remember this show from the 80's. It came on a low budget channel. It was really creepy. I don't care if they're calling it a Creepypasta, I remember watching this show as a kid. Could this be a Mandela Effect?
Shared false memories, something similar happened with "ever dream this man?". Something about the brain trying to fill in gaps, I belive? Either way it's weird, but interesting.
I remember this show from when I was really little. What I remember was a house and a few puppets, and they would end every episode by singing the words "so long" and the door to the house would close. It wasn't anything creepy, it's just been on my mind for the past few years and I haven't been able to figure out what it was or if it was real.
my siblings and i have a similar experience with a german movie called “the ketchup vampires” when you look it up, there is no information except where to buy copies of the movies. i have both “ketchup vampires” 1 and 2 so i know that the movies are real, but nobody else has ever heard of them. very underground, i guess? but what’s creepy is that on IMDB there’s no cast, no director listed, only Elvira Mistress of the Dark. that’s it, no info. there might not even be a synopsis available, and if there is, it’s only three sentences that aren’t really indicative of the plot. very strange. gives me a “does anyone remember candle cove” vibes.
The watching statics part hits hard because I actually did that a lot as kid lol. It's nowhere near scary though. At the time I was obsessed with Courage the Cowardly Dog to the point of memorizing episodes, so sometimes I just stare into the statics and replay the episodes inside my head, and it feels like I could see the show playing behind the statics
it might not be scary from your perception, but imagine being the parent that sees their kid staring intently at static on the tv and the kid just smiles chuckles at the screen- 💀💀🖐
i would watch static as a child and call it the "ants channel" lmao
Weirdo
I personally would just watch the statics and see shapes and scenes in it
It was a good memory and overall very fun
Me and mom used to see it I found it scary at first but then I started liking it what I was very scared of hyperspace monkey go because I did not know it was real till in recently and in one episode I think the main characters chest got injured and robotic parts were exposed that really freaked me out
"except for Janice who was crying"
Same
That’s rough buddy
good one, props 2 u
My grandma's name is Janice. First time I've ever heard it elseehere
That’s funny cuz that’s my real name but it’s spelled differently
When I was a child I used to love watching the show and reading the books of Madeline. However, I'm convinced I was traumatized by the episode/book where Madeline has to have her appendix removed. There's a scene where Ms. Clavel ascends the stairs, repeating the words "Something is not right", while Madeline is crying in pain. I had a light outside of my bedroom that cast a shadow which resembled a nun (like Ms. Clavel). I used to have night terrors of Ms. Clavel running up the stairs repeating the line from the book/show. I'll never forget the fear of running past the shadow to wake up my mom. Sorry for the rant, great video!
I dont remember this episode but i loved that show as a kid
Was that the episode where she sings “voila! My scar!” or did my brain make that up?
@@imagicat_ Yes!! I forgot about that line, but I remember it vividly now lol
Here’s that episode m.ruclips.net/video/lo472Cpxhw8/видео.html
I remember something about Madeline. It was probably the movie but it was something about it. I was around 7-8 when I saw it. But when I rewatched the episode you were talking about. It was not that scary as you said, I imagined it had loud crying in pain as she descended the tall building. But yea it is a little disturbing I get what you mean.
Courage the cowardly dog was so demented
agreed!
It scared little 5 year old me ;-;
this show literally gave me nightmares, my siblings loved it but i was so scarred by it i hated it
I love that show! I still do,,me and my grandma used to watch it when I was little
Dang I used to love it since I was in kinder I remember watching it on Netflix [used to be on there in 2012/2013?? I can't remember] with my dad really late when my mom was asleep. Good times
Slenderman is a great example of a false memorie as well. He was created in some sort of contest or experiment on how things spread throughout the internet (or something like that) and people started remembering seeing him as children when they were playing on playground.
No he was from a photoshop contest
@@senatorarmstrong1233 Right.
Also to get rid of false memories you need to, run your (high frequency background) (memory brain state) or
Also called sensory memory, while remembering something to remember remembering a memory.
Or, to get rid of it, use the rare Live-memory-state so if the memory feels like there are
manny tangent feelings/vibes it’s false.
I can prove this because the memory doesn’t feel right, nothing fits,
I felt two different vibes, my memory was later found out by me to be
2 tv shows. my mind mashed them together,
The tv show I mixxed up, without context on the two either to shows,
Are spiced and some other similar Canadian one.
I had this rare brain state as a kid, to have it you need to have a good mental health, and intelligent growth mindset.
If you don’t use either of these, it’s hard to get it up and running.
Idk if there’s suck thing as a live-memory brain-state.
But I had it.
I proved it that I heard a song called Tms, nothing was wrong with the memory due to logic.
I kept hearing the song on radio, and it kept reminding me of that one night.
I heard it for the first time, when I was 3 years old.
After fact checking it was 2007,
And the internet mystery began since 2007.
I remember being three, the memory is of me in the back of my dads black truck, driving down to orrilia.
I asked my secondary mother in the passenger seat, as the sun went down on the long road.
And why the sky had a glow, she said it was by the city, it looked like a purple aura.
And that might of been the night or some month similarly close
Where at my grandmas farm, I ask for my favourite “rock song” I called this a rock song.
That cars all night song song.
I also recall hearing Tms just before going into Toronto, in the grass fields, that are now covered up in outlet stores.
The time was 11:00 when it almost over.
I remember playing a ds new super Mario game.
I love the water sewers level.
One memory I had, was of me going into a complex that I cannot recall where, but my grandmother was their Kate ring, and in the vehicle I was annoyingly pressing my obscure toy shotgun.
The toy is obscure, I loved it so much, it got taken away 😢
I recall a memory that I thought nothing of, and whenever I asked my family about it thye didn’t know what it was,
Now after, I knew why I felt a weirdly strange familiar connection to my family, it was because as a kid my cousins, watched me when I was 5 under,
And the shows I recall are that weird space-website digital show, and that show called resses.
You ever recall the weird tv show memory without context on how you can even recall that tv show?
Or dream….
Then later that visual ear worm, dies down?
Speaking of false memories, I have a very vivid memory of going to ballet lessons as a really small child - I remember wearing the outfit, having to put my leg on the bar on the wall, I very distinctly remember the room - it had a nature mural painted on one wall. I casually brought it up to my mother a while ago only to find out I never went to ballet lessons and she has no clue what I was even talking about.
Or your mom forgot that you even went there
I have a very clear memory of going into an abandoned building with my dad and sister and some of our neighbors to watch fireworks on the roof. I remember the power was still on, but most of the lights were off. The rooms were mostly bare of furniture and kinda dusty, we took the elevator up and set up lawn chairs on a gravely flat roof. There weren't a lot of buildings around it. When we left, our neighbor needed to use a bathroom and something scared her and she shrieked when she left, but it was probably just because it was dark.
I'm gonna ask my dad tomorrow of he remembers this at all, but I'm not sure I want to know lol. It's a weird memory and i kinda just like holding on to it
People say maybe that was your past life. I don’t know though I have to same things but I can’t remember right now
I very distinctly remember when i was about 8, my mom put me on her lap in the car. We were only a few minutes away from home and she wanted me to steer (she was helping, of course). But after saying i didnt know the way, she took me off her lap and drove home. As soon as we got home, i said that i could do it next time, and she had NO RECCOLECTION of that event, even though it was onky a few minutes prior. So i just kept on living my life up until now. No matter how many details i give, she doesnt remember at all and denied it ever happening. so ??????
@@hushfur i have a similar memory of being in the middle of nowhere and my dad was driving somewhere, for some reason we had stopped and my mum had me sitting on her lap in the front seat. Dad got back in and we kept going, I remember it being like the middle of western australia but i didn't go there until i was at least 8 and i was no more than 2 in this memory, also before my siblings were born my parents never took me anywhere other than to visit friends who lived in a built up area for no reason to drive in the middle of nowhere??? I also feel like there was a reason i was on my mums lap, its such a weird and vivid memory that makes no sense, also sorry this is so long
I remember watching a cartoon as a child which ended with four children gave up a quarter of their lifespan for their best friend. It really upset me. It still weirds me out now. For years, no one seemed to know what I was talking about. . . I googled a ton of different things. . .then finally. . ."The Halloween Tree". I still don't know anyone who has seen it.
Oh wow! I’m looking that up immediately
Sounds almost like a south park episode
HOLY SHIT! I HAVE A COPY OF THE HALLOWEEN TREE ON DVD MY OLDER SISTER LOVED IT. didn’t recognize the plot, i was probably too young, but when you said “the halloween tree” i immediately knew something clicked. yes, my grandmother had that on DVD. she had a lot of very underground stuff. like the halloween tree and the ketchup vampires. i cant believe that just got brought up, i literally forgot that existed.
That movie messed with me.
My roommate is obsessed with weird, cheap, bad, and obscure movies and shows.
He was ecstatic to find that online to show us for our annual Halloween party marathon one year.
I have definitely seen it as a kid a few times on a family channel at Halloween time, it really upset me too.
i was OBSESSED with this story when i was like eight, and out of curiosity i looked “candle cove” up and found the channel zero thing. freaked me out so i refused to look at my tv for a while JAJFJSME
I didnt grow up when this aired but for some reason I remember candle cove
isn't it so strange?!
@@HannahTheHorrible So I guess that in The Story that Parents couldn't see The Show because They don't have The same Imagination than Kids do
The brain sometimes makes up memories. Like you never actually did what you remember, but your brain makes the memories up to make it make sense
@@mizuki3183 And that's the entire point of the CreepyPasta.
same- i remember Laughingstock saying "you have to go inside"-
candle cove is my favorite creepypasta! it’s so well done!
I LOVE Candle Cove too! Thank you so much!
@@HannahTheHorrible It is A Great Creepypasta but My Favorite Creepypasta is 1999 please PARDON My Language but Mr. Bear Scares The ever LOVING SHIT out of Me A Man Who dressed in A BearSuit Who Kills Children and Eats Their Body parts and Sacrifices Them to The Devil
My weird memory of a tv show was this sitcom the adults watched. I think Seinfeld or Home Improvement? Something like that? It was a Halloween episode that I only saw on once when it was a new episode. One of the main characters was dressed as a butcher or something for a Halloween party, and every time the blood got too dry he'd kill another of the characters. Everyone was telling him it was a great costume and the blood looked so real, and I think he was killed by the police at the end but maybe not? The Next Week On (whichever show it was) segment at the end was the laugh track playing over empty sets because all the characters were dead.
I assumed I fell asleep and dreamed most of it until I heard the adults all talking and laughing about it the next day.
Thing is every person in my friends, and family I ask about it remembers the episode, but remembers it being a different show.
Ghostess Whoa, that's fucked up !
Ever since I found out humans taste like red meat this is one of my fears. No really according to cannibals we taste similar to red meat and are placed in the same category. I'm not a cannibal so I can't confirm that but a decent number of this cannibals are butchers as well.
@@3arthandsky There is a Cannibal from Japan who said human mean tastes like pork but with a gamey taste.
what the hell, i think i know what you're talking about!!!! i don't remember anything but i SWEAR i saw what you're describing!!
@@pussepinkman What's it called? I need to know!
Personally, I think it's better if the screaming episode was a broadcast test or an equipment test or something that was aired accidentally. I think it grants the idea of the show's existence more legitimacy than just "spooky ghost insanity episode oooo be afraid"
The detail that tipped me off that this was only a story was the mention of "channel 58." The televisions of that time had a knob that had only 13 channels. Some televisions, but not most, had a second knob that contained some higher numbers. Being able to tune into something above the regular 13 was a rare thing because most of the channels were just static. In most places, even most of the main 13 channels didn't have a station tied to them. My family TV was able to get 5 clear channels. Sometimes 6 if the weather was agreeable. If this story was real, the characters in the story would have mentioned the strangeness of the ability to get a clear picture regularly on such an obscure channel. People from that era casually talking about tuning in "channel 58" during the early 70s would surely have had a lengthy string on that topic alone!
Candle cove IS static. The kids may have turned the tv past it's point, discovering something strange.
UHF (channels above 13) was available long before the 1970s.
VHF was channels 2-13.
Fun fact: the writer of this is also behind the analog horror series local 58, about a strange TV channel with supernatural occurrences. From there we can infer its in the same universe, and Candle Cove was shown on it
Edit: oops, she mentioned it in the video! Don't mind this then sdhkjhfdxcv
Oh yes I remember the one at 8:50 !
It was the Haunting Hour, I think, and if I'm not wrong that episode was about a toy company that made dolls that looked exactly the same as the customer, and this girl wanted one so bad, but when she finally got it, the doll slowly turned into a real girl, and the girl slowly turned into the doll. So the doll wanted to turn into a flesh and bone human replacing the owner girl and nobody would notice because they simply looked exactly the same.
You just unlocked a whole hidden childhood memory of mine.
oh my gosh thank you, I couldn't remember the name at all!
I remember the mother being obsessed with the doll as well. I turned off the episode and never went back the second the doll started stroking the mother's cheek. Nope.
That's correct! It's the first episode of the series called Really You. It was a two parter episode.
Thank you so much lol i forgot what the name was
I highly recommend you check out the animated short film "Alma" I believe it's from 2009 and it also features a creepy doll that looks like the main character.
Late to the party, but wanted to share: I have this super clear memory of my wife and I on a road trip, visiting the town I went to high school in and seeing my friends. We met up with several old friends and I showed her around all the places we used to hang out; a park, a cofee shop, and a few cool stores. Thing is, my wife and I hadn't met when I took that road trip. It's wild to know beyond a doubt that something you recall so clearly never happened.
exactly i'll remember some thing vividly and it didn't even happen
Also late but I experience this regularly as well; I think there is a part of our minds that categorizes the importance of that person to us and adds them into our memories. I have memories of going to see movies in 2015 with my girlfriend and we didn't meet until 2018
For 20 years, I've been intent on never missing my mom's birthday, because the year my son was born, I called my mom on her birthday, forgetting her birthday, and telling her she had to let me and my new baby move in. After realizing I forgot her birthday that day, I swore I'd never forget again. Yesterday, I was recounting this fact, and realized - my mom's birthday is 9 days before my son was born. I moved back in with mom when my son was a few weeks old. There is no way this fact I've lived my life by for 20 years, ever could have happened.
No matter how scary a show can be, nothing can beat Courage the Cowardly Dog's
"Return the slaaaaab"
I know right!
Adrian Lao / AceAids Except Courage the Cowardly Dog's "You're not perfect..."
The show is on hbo max. My sister loved that show but I don't think she was scared just intrigued.
@@3arthandsky Really ? I thought it was just on Cartoon Network.
@@justindenney-hall5875 I don't think they play it much on cartoon network alot now a days maybe boomerang.
I remember when I was about 9 or 10, my family had one of those old wooden big TV that was a floor tv but only the audio worked,not the picture.I would go downstairs,at a certain time of the day and turn on the TV and Pippi longstocking cartoon would be on.Always the same part of the same episode.I could only here it,not see it bc let me remind you the picture didn't show.but that creeped me out.that happened for about 3 months straight!!! Creepy right??? Sincerely IRMA LILIANA from Chicago Illinois
Omg that is so creepy!!! I remember I had one of those super old floor wood TVs too, we got at a garage sale. Pretty sure all those type of TVs are haunted. Thanks for sharing!
@@HannahTheHorrible wuv candle cove😂😂😂😂
pippi longstocking was low key scary tho
Oh, wow, I had no idea about the connection between Candle Cove and Local 58.
Isn’t it so cool? He’s basically just a pure genius.
@@HannahTheHorrible candle cove is also s creepy pasta
I was a kid in the 90s and early 00s but I swear when I first found Candle Cove online it triggered some vague memories of a similar TV show and the video recreations of the creepypasta play out extremely similar to nightmares I had when I was little. It's so very well done and really taps into universal experiences
Ok but that one show the Haunting Hour that was similar to goosebumps traumatized me. When I was in like fourth grade my friend told me about how she watched the show and had nightmares bc of the doll girl. I liked scary stuff so I watched it and tbh that episode wasn’t that bad. However, me and my siblings kept watching the show and eventually we got to an episode about Big Yellow, which was a school mascot. And let me just tell you, I have not been the same since. Idk what it was about that episode but it was just sick and me and my brother couldn’t sleep for the next week.
same i stopped watching after that one episode I think called dreamcatcher where these girls go to a summer camp, and this one girl kept getting nightmares about this one creature, and it ended with the mean girl getting trapped in her dream and a very scary creature popped out it had black long hair and its body was white I think. and it told her she can never escape, it was so creepy i had to watch a barbie movie so I can sleep at night.
That show was fucked up. I think I blocked it out from the trauma until I saw that clip lol. How tf was it allowed to be shown on kids TV????
I REMEMBER THE HAUNTING HOUR!!! does anyone remember an episode of like a girl was in a princess palace or something and she got trapped there and like a dragon ate her?? I don't remember I was so young but my brother and I didn't sleep for days we were sooo scared
@@4udioslave I don’t think I got that far in the show but yeah that shit was messed up
The doll one is still scary to me tbh it traumatized me and my siblings
I remember watching a show as a kid called “The Boohbahs” and it terrified me. To quote my mom when I had asked her about the show; ‘Every time the characters would come on screen, you would scream and hide in your room until the show was over.’ To this day they still creep me out (even though it stopped airing in like 2008) with their weird bodies and big eyes. (If you can’t tell, I don’t like them)
I remember Boobahs, it came on just when I was too old to enjoy that kind of thing (maybe I remember wrong but I thought it was for preschoolers and younger) and for some reason I thought the Boobahs were the children of the Teletubbies and the show was intended to be like a replacement/reboot of the teletubbies. I remember thinking the Teletubbies was sooo much better, like a "kids these days" kind of moment. Lol
Hehe booba
Oh god, I remember boobahs! I also remember playing games on the PBS website. The entire thing was really weird and surreal, looking back, but five year old me just saw colors and thought it was fun to watch.
bOoOoOoOooOOObAaaaaaaaaAAahhaAh
ur welcom
I love this creepy pasta definitely one of my favourites and I love how you talked about it like it was a real thing at first haha. Another great example of a creepy "how was I even allowed to watch this as a kid?" Kids show is a show I was obsessed with as a child called Grizzly tales for gruesome kids. That show looking back was all kinds of messed up but I loved it.
Ohhh never heard of that one!! I’m going to go look it up though I LOVE creepy kids shows hahah
@@HannahTheHorrible yes! I'd love to hear what you think !♡
8:49 holy shit when she started saying it was a show from 2010 to 2014 I realized I used to watch kid shows around that time and seeing this clip bring back way too many memories that I wish I could forget I don't know whether to thank you or go huddle in the corner for a few hours
A show that scared me as a child was actually you showed that Disney aired in 2010, my babysitters a vampire. There was an episode where a plant took over the school and it terrified me
that show was my fave when i was in fifth grade omg
On the subject of false memories, I have an incredibly strange one for ya. You ready........I distinctly remember from when I was around 2 or 3 years old, looking under my bed and seeing A HUGE anthropomorphic pink bunny staring at me.
She looked almost like either a Muppet or an HR Pufnstuf character and just waved at me. I have always known that this never really happened, despite how vividly I remember it the whole thing was clearly just a dream. If if was like a typical ghost or gray alien, I guess I could open my mind to that. But a Muppet!? Come on, that stuff is clearly just a work of fiction! Lol
I actually forgot about that "memory" for years until just last week, that bunny appeared in ANOTHER one of my dreams all these years later. I often watch whatever is playing on [adult swim] before I go to bed and in my dream, she was a new mascot that the channel introduced. She now had the name Sarah and would appear regularly in their signature between commercial bumpers. Man, the human mind sure is crazy, isn't it?
1visualfxguy oh my gosh. That is very very creepy! If I had that dream as a kid I don’t think I’d ever be the same 😂
Have you ever seen The Haunting Hour? It’s a kids show by the Goosebumps creator, the one I show the clip of in the video of the killer doll. There’s an episode of that show called “the Mascot” or something like that and it is SO disturbing. Lol. It reminds me a lot of your dream.
@@HannahTheHorrible Somehow that dream never scared me. In fact, I thought my dream bunny was really adorable. I've never had a problem with most puppets and costume characters, even the infamously creepy ones like the NHL character Gritty. For some reason the only mascot type characters that creep me out are the ones that resemble any sort of primate (monkeys, apes, sasquatches and yetis, etc). Real and cartoon monkeys have no effect on me in case you are wondering, just the puppet ones. Yes, I am well aware of how weird that last sentence sounded btw lol.
Dude I had the same thing happen to me. I was like four, sitting in my bed late at night and I stared at what looked like a person in a giant pink bunny costume. I think it was Easter Eve as well. I don't remember what I did or how long I stared at it. never brought it up to anyone and mostly forgot about it. It felt too real to be a dream so I think it must have been my one and only sleep paralysis demon.
kinda same, but scarier
idont know what the frick was up with my mind, but i was seeing stuff one night that was spooky,, like the dog looked like a,, blood dog or something. there was more thanjust that that night, but that was the most scary one i remembered.
another one was alot like yours, i was VERY young. i remember the zunifetish doll (i think that was the name) was underneath my parents bed,, just there. i also saw him under the sofa, like at the bottom where you can view it. it felt veryy real.
i havent really told anyone about these, cause it was just my imagination. i saw the trilogy of terror alot when i was very young, so i was terrified of scary things like that (also caused alot of nightmares of the doll being a giant basically killing everyone.)
sorry if written poorly, its 3am.

I was born in the late 70s and there were a lot of weird, creepy, low-budget kids shows that would air from the late 60s, 70s and early 80s. I was in Canada and in particular the low budget Canadian shows could be super weird. To anyone who grew up around that time, it does lend an air of believability.
What are your thoughts on the 1999 story?
oh. my. god. I have never heard of this and I LOVE it. That clip you added at the very end - FREAKING NIGHTMARISH. This is all just pure genius and honestly now I want to quit writing books and write internet conspiracy theories about shows that maybe never existed instead.
hahahah you could write SUCH an amazing novel based off of this show!! The clips that exist of the show are insanely creepy. But honestly some of the real childhood shows are even scarier!
@@HannahTheHorrible I honestly have had like five different novel ideas just from watching your videos! But yeah, you're right about the real shows being creepier. I mean, even movies like The Neverending Story or Labyrinth, while not exactly terrifying, are just...unsettling? In a way that kids' movies today definitely aren't. (So much of it was just Jim Henson, I swear. I really appreciate CGI but we lost a level of creepy when Hollywood stopped using his puppets.)
I never hear people talk about how crystal cove has potential to give us a deeper understanding of the Mandela effect. It personally leads me to believe our brains use other events to fill in gaps of our memory. What is likely going on, is another less memorable pirate show played around that time, and our brains use this story to fill in the gaps
Actually, i have a memory that has stuck with me for a really long time. When i was younger, i would watch Archie's Weird Mysteries, which was a show about Archie and his friends trying to solve mysteries of the paranormal. Anyways, i remember this episode that had something to do with a ghost on a ship or something. It was late at night, and i was young, so i got really scared. I closed my eyes because the ghost appeared on screen, but i could still see the screen. My eyes were closed and I could still see the whole room and the tv. I never felt more terrified of my own sight before. I opened my eyes again, and it seemed like i never closed my eyes, but i did. I don't know what happened, but it scared me nonetheless.
Oof! That does sound super scary, especially for a kid.
Congratulations, you briefly had superpowers
I'm so glad I found your channel, I love this stuff!
How could you forget courage the cowardly dog?
Any list of creepy kid shows must include that show XD
Cryptic cheese Lover someone else told me that too!! I still need to look it up. Glad you’re here and enjoying the content!
I had a reverse Candle Cove experience: I was sure I had imagined a super creepy show from my childhood that turned out to be real. It was a German show called "Die Gespenster von Flatterfels" and it used to air super early in the morning so my parents never saw me watching it. Due to it featuring a creepy ghost puppet and airing at like 6 AM, I assumed I must have dreamed it up. Imagine my surprise when I found it online :D
I've always loved creepy shows, even as a kid, my favourite was Are You Afraid of the Dark, it gave me a few weird dreams and a fear of the dark corner of my bedroom at night, but I just couldn't stop watching it
Has anyone else seen "There's a Nightmare in my Closet"? Creeped me out so much as a kid. Real show lol
Yeah, that was an animated adaptation of a story with the same name. It was one of three animated short segments in an episode of, I think it was, “Mary Duval’s bedtime stories”. It was themed around spooky things in closets, under the bed and in the attic.
I love the whole Candle Cove story and I wasn't aware it had expanded as much as it had until now. This is so cool. Thanks for the great video, Hannah.
By the way, I am currently down with Covid (for the second time) and I've just been binge-watching all your stuff the last few days. You've really made my sicky time so much more pleasant with your delightfully creepy content.
I know I'm very late but: there is something of candle cove caliber that actually aired: Flajack. That crap was bonkers
Agreed.
Man, i still remember the episode where they found that container in the shape of a heart with wish granting candy inside. That siren queen or whatever she was was freaking scary, especially as she got more and more deteriorated, but the scariest part was immediately after the last candy was used and she essentially started shaking and i think she was screaming as well?... That part genuinely scared me and even gave me nightmares... Ah, gotta love remembering creepy flap jack crap at almost 2 am
@@skyc-1375 yeah, the entire show just had this really creepy air to it, but I think the episode that freaked me out the most was the one about the cat. Remember, the gray cat with hollow eyes and sharp teeth? Man that cat was creepy!
@@Morovygostex yeah i remember that part. Honestly, that was so outlandish it moved from creepy to just strange for me
I still have to say “CANDY WIFE!” in doctor barber’s voice from time to time.
Svengoolie,the original one scared me a lot bc when I was about 5 or 6, my two older sisters bell who was 9 and cio who was 11 at the time would scare me with Svengoolie.They would tease me and sing a song they made up and sing Svengoolie dadadat! They were mean and bullies.Im 41 RN and till this day,I'm afraid of Svengoolie!!! Sincerely IRMA LILIANA from Chicago Illinois
Ok I just looked that show up and NOPE. Looks so creepy!!! I can't believe the things they let us watch as children.
Why did I look that up
Lol, Svengoolie is not supposed to be scary. He’s just a fat Chicagoan in skeleton makeup telling cheesey jokes.
I used to listen to Candle Cove through out my childhood.
I still do to this day.
AHHH Real Monsters! Was my Jam! That TV show freaking rocked!
Probably the oddest thing for me was I once had a dream about Candle Cove, but I wasn't ever told the actual story. One of the kids at my school had said it was a Disney ride that was creepy (though perhaps they were talking about the Pirates of The Caribbean ride??). I remember very little about the dream, but it was very dark. Kind of like a misty sort of darkness, a dim blue color shining through the fog. It was definitely on a pirate ship, but I don't remember any specifics about characters or anything. Either way, still a creepy little dream that this video reminded me of!
The Haunting Hour. I remember watching that show every single time it came on when I was around 9. I remember getting really upset when the show no longer aired even though it gave me nightmares after watching each episode
there was this norwegian show that got created in 2007 called Skrimmel Skrammel. The show was about 5 guys who all met on this magical land called Skrimmel Skrammel. Some of the stuff that would happen is that one of the character's would lose something, and then they had to ask this statue for help, called mr mister yåså (pronounce mr mr yausau). He was so scary, because his design was very dark in color, he had this gaping mouth, glowing red eyes, and everytime he was on screen, there was this low growling voice, and he had a really dark voice. He also had this globe that he would spin, and everytime it landed on a country, steam would come out of it. Then they would have to sing a song related to the lost item, and in the style of the country.
Then there was also Gammel kanten (The old edge). You see, even though Skrimmel Skrammel was a magical place, staying there too long was dangerous because of The old edge. You see, most of the time The old edge was just an edge. It didn't do anything to the character's as long as they didn't fall over it, but it they did ever fall over, they would turn over a 100 years old. And staying in Skrimmel Skrammel too long was dangerous, because after a while The old edge would start to lure them closer to the edge. One time, they stayed there so long that one of them fell over. They managed to save him, but it was still very creepy
it for sure wasnt a kids movie, but i remember having a fever-dream like experience w this movie called \the cell, with Jennifer Lopez.
It scared me so much as a young one and it took me years to figure out what i watched.
Parents be wildin'
There was this one thing that absolutely scared me to death as a little kid and it was…. An episode of pingu.
The episode in question is called something like “pingus nightmare” and the whole episode is super abstract and uncanny. It starts off with Pingu falling asleep and waking up in his bed (he’s dreaming) and his beds kegs grow all long as it walks around. Then, for some ungodly reason, the creators of the show decided to put a literal JUMPSCARE in the episode by having this giant fucked up and horrifying looking seal just. Peak its massive head over the horizon. It goes on to tease pingu and eat his bed while manically chuckling.
That shit… I remember when it first came on and the seal appeared I ran out of the room so fast and just cried and screamed. I had nightmares for years, lmao
I REMEMBER THIS EPISODE AND IT FRICKIN TRAUMATIZED ME!!! 😱😭
@@ivyblack2209 IT WAS WAY TOO MUCH FOR KIDS LOL I’m pretty sure the episode got pulled from some networks and there was a revised version of it rereleased
OH MY GOD I THINK THAT CREEPY DOLL CLIP WAS GOOSEBUMPS! That episode TERRIFIED ME of American girl dolls and honestly it’s still so horrifying why was I allowed to watch that??!!?!!
actually, it was rl stine the haunting hour if im remembering correctly. there are reuploads on youtube of it! it was a very scary show for me when i watched it when i was younger
oh my god goosebumps... i never actually watched it as a kid, but when i went to psych residential, we watched EVERY episode. every single one. so now when i think of goose bumps i think of residential lmao
8:52 I was 4-8 in 2010-2014 and that show freaked the shit out of me. ESPECIALLY that one part where the parents are sleeping and the girl and her older brother had set up a camera in their room so they could catch it moving and the doll gets up from where it was laying next to the mom (she had gotten attached to it because it was the ‘well behaved’ version of her daughter) and it walks off the screen and then she literally moved back into frame like a jumpscare. It was so scary, I had nightmares for weeks.
have you seen the sequel to that episode?
The screaming episode sounds like an inside joke among producers that was never intended to be aired, similar to the incredibly violent unused title card for an adventure Time episode.
I love this creepypasta It's one of my all time favorites
I did look into whether or not it existed and I found no records of its existence
I also found out through a RUclipsr who covers a lot of creepypastas that the "screaming episode" used stock audio
i remember hearing about this through snarled (a youtube channel which focuses on urban legends and scary stories) and snarled was my childhood!!
Anyone else watch 'Grizzly Tales For Gruesome Kids' growing up? It was traumatising. That and 'Round The Twist' had its fair share of traumatising episodes. The haunted doll episode really stuck with me especially 😭
Such a good creepypasta, and this is a fantastic exposition of it. Thank you so much for sharing this
When you spoke about memories flooding in from childhood something instantly came to mind. That episode of Invader Zim when Zim discovers he needs human organs or everyone will find out he's not human so he precedes to collect organs from the children at the school and replace the organ he stole with a random object. For some reason I've always been very disturbed by that episode! It's just so unsettling.
You look so pretty in this video!(you always do, but it looks like you’ve done something different with your hair or makeup, or maybe it’s the top you’re wearing) i love remembering creepy childhood shows, books, songs.
The two "scary shows" I loved as a kid were goosebumps and takes by the campfire, also I think I remember watching an episode or two of tales from the crypt.
This reminds me of crashbox, which was an amazing show that I wasn’t allowed to watch much because it was creepy
This wasn't a kid's show, but Tales from the Dark Side was one of the scariest shows I watched as a kid. Scariest movie, Trilogy of Terror. That killer doll's face still haunts me
The older kid shows you did name, I remember fondly. Also, that one from 2010ish I remember watching a few years back. That was a really interesting and well-done series. That clip was bizarre because it was from an episode about a little girl who had a doll made of her hair and it was like becoming her. It was insane. I loved it.
I love weird and creepy shows though. lol
I LOVED So Weird. Still love So Weird, and Goosebumps, and Ahh! Real Monsters! oh my god, I remember R.L. Stine's Nightmare Room, I think is what that last clip is. But I think my absolute favorite besides So Weird, is Are You Afraid of the Dark?
Been loving watching your videos! Just one small thing: 2:39, "calliope" is pronounced "cuh-LIE-oh-pee". I know. It's not obvious. :)
Omg thank you. Hahaha I remember struggling with that one 🤣🤣
Angela Anaconda always freaked me out but I grew up watching all the scary shows lol. Tales from the Crypt cartoon and Beetlejuice cartoon, Goosebumps, Are You Afraid of the Dark (literals since the premiere). Scary Salute Your Shorts (Zeke the Plumber) and Hey, Dude Halloween episodes were so good.
Beetle juice creeps me out so much. I’ve seen some very scary horror movies and Beetlejuice scares me more hahah. He’s just soooo weird and creepy. I am definitely going to look up the other things you have listed here though! I haven’t heard of a few of them.
Are You Afraid of The Dark is great
Thank you for mentioning So Weird!
7:07 so basically my greatest example of this is when I was younger I saw my mom watching a version of “if you give a mouse a cookie” where the mouse ate the child’s mom?? Recently I saw a clip of a robot chicken episode of the same concept but the ending was different. In my dream the mouse could never be stopped and it got bigger and bigger but in the robot chicken episode a swat team killed it? I think I caught my mom watching it and went to bed and my subconscious finished what I saw?
Not saying it was the scariest show ever as I was a very anxiety prone child (and ironically am now an aspiring horror writer) but I remember how some of the puppets in Between the Lions freaked me out, mainly the dancing pants guy (Artie Smartypants?) I still have his creepy song stuck in my head. There was also one of the Pocahontas movies that had a jester character who was just demented looking and even googling his image again as an adult years later I was still like "absolutely no this was not okay for children"
Candle Cove is by far my favourite creepypasta. I first stumbled upon the website when I was around 11 and I had nightmaressss about the show for like a week. It was so cool and creepy, and I’m still amazed that I could have been affected so much by it. It’s beautifully written, and it’s modern enough for it to have some belief in it
I loved goosebumps and the haunting hour as a kid I used to love anything scary as a kid
Woah, I had never heard of this before! Thanks so much for posting this video, it was so entertaining to watch!
I genuinely thought it was real until that last sentence. It's just so brilliantly written
Me listening to Hannah talk about this like it’s a real show when I know it’s a creepypasta: 😐
Or IS it...?
Your videos are amazing, I'm so glad that I found your channel! Thank you for such interesting and well-researched videos. Is there anything that fans can do to support you?
Hi Mikayla! Thank you so much for such a lovely comment. Making these videos is so fun for me! To answer your question- “Liking” my videos as you watch them is always a HUGE help! Or, if you’re so inclined, sharing them with a friend or group who might also enjoy them is very much appreciated as well. Again thank you so much!! ❤️❤️
I honestly wish Channel Zero would have lasted longer. Imagine if they could have covered other creepy pastas. The other show you talked about (with the doll trying to kill the girl) was also created using RL Stines (Goosebumps creator) book series.
It is extremely relatable. I had several creepy memories from 90s/2000s tv shows and couldn't find out if it was real until years after.
Like I remembered an episode about housewives sleeping in tupperware boxes to remain young: it actually came from Eerie Indiana.
And don't get me started on Are you afraid of the dark, cause a lot of memories actually came from that show!
It's amazing that the internet helped us to remember those. There truly was a golden age of teen/children creepy horror shows
That episode of So Weird traumatized me as a child! I remembered that baby looking a lot creepier as a kid and kept me up all night!
the doll episode of r.l. stien from the 2010's gave me nightmares for weeks, i was about 8 or 9 when it aired.
I only really recently discovered your channel and I’ve been binge watching since
5:49 bro that scene looks so familiar that it’s terrifying I remember the doll smashing the mirror with the hammer and I was scared of dolls since then I would see my toy box full of Barbies and scream and cry…… god the 90s was evil
OMG THAT ONE SHOW THAT WAS LIKE GOOSEBUMPS SCARRED ME OML. THE DOLL HAUNTED MY DREAMS FOR DAYS AFTER WATCHING IT!! IT USED TO BE ON NETFLIX!!
Okay so I remember watching this stop animation show as a kid in the early 2000s, after extensive searching, I found out it was a short film called "Not Without My Handbag" I watched it in my 2nd grade class but never finished it because the teachers thought it'd be too scary for us, then later played Horton Hears a Who. I thought Not Without My Handbag was a short before Horton Hears a Who but they were separate films. I've tried searching for what format the teachers could've gotten Not Without My Handbag, can anyone help with that, on how the film was distributed? That film scared me as a kid, but I saw it all recently and it's just as creepy as I remember
There are a lot of people who think this is real, even today. Kris Straub have my respect as a cartoonist. This is the most fun creepypasta ever made! And i loved your channel , hi from Brazil!
Tales from the crypt, Goosebumps, Courage the cowardly dog are just the ones that come to mind that I remember seeing
I'm a Australian who grew up primarily in the late 2000s to the early 2010s and i grew up with a show called Grizzly tales for gruesome kids. I think it was british and it was about kids being naughty and getting brutally murdered or hurt. If you remember there's still episodes on here on youtube. But like, the animation style was so weird and creepy. I remember an episode where a kid swore so a hairdresser cut her tongue off? And honestly the intro song haunted my nightmares. It depicts a young boy going into a movie cinema and getting a ticket to see a move, he's handed popcorn but it turns out to be beetles. The intro was in this creepy tim burton esk claymation but the actual show was in a weird dodgy style. I don't know, it was just creepy. I rewatched one of the episodes a few weeks ago and its still just as creepy. Does anyone remember? so weird. Honestly sometimes i feel like us Australians just got Canada and Britain's failed kids shows. But hey no we can make kids shows just look at dirt girl world! :(
The BBC network aired CAPTAIN ABERCROMBY. it was the genuine puppet style pirate themed show from 2002. I remember it to be creepy with some strange scenes. Footage was lost cause the studio caught fire.
Everyone else is lying about remembering a supposed pirate puppet show if they think it was candle cove in the 80s.
The show with the doll is called Lilly D. Scared the life outta me.
The Haunting Hour. I only saw the movie.
No it's called The Haunting Hour.
I don't have any memories like that, since my parents closely monitored my media consumption as a kid and I wasn't allowed to watch anything my parents thought was too scary for me.
I hadn’t heard of this creepy pasta, but did watch it on Channel Zero. Weirdly, the doll and the ship were very familiar to me, like I had seen them before. It’s always nagged at me a bit. I was hoping your video would explain where I’d seen them before, but now I’m more confused than ever. 🤔
Candle Cove is great Creepypasta. The person who wrote is extremely talented. A great example of less is more in horror.
Holy crap
At timestamp 8:50 I had serious nostalgia
I would literally watch that episode of the show over and over again! It’s called Lily D and It is actually written by RL stine, the creator of goosebumps. It low key gave me nightmares.💀
Nick Antosca made this story *come to life* in Channel Zero season one. Loved that series, and LOVED Brand New Cherry Flavor on Netflix.
I want to see Hannah go over “So Bizarre” or the one she doesn’t name with the doll in a longer video. I’m not familiar with either show and would be totally down for a whole video about these real shows.
I can't remember what it was called, but when i was maybe 8 or so there was this movie on Disney channel about these people from another planet who were actually BUBBLE PEOPLE? I remember it really unnerving me for some reason, and now looking back it still does lol
I remenber being young, from like age 1 to 6, there was this show called "oobi", I think. I don't remember much about it, but I know I would hysterically cry and scream when it played on Noggin(old nick jr). I remember that there was an episode with a weird noise, a dark background, and weird lighting. My mother and grandmother never saw anything wrong with it, however. I dunno if it's just a child thing, or maybe it was visible, and my family wasn't in the room, or were preoccupied. Anyone else remember??
My disturbing childhood TV show memory is this: When I was little in the last 1970s-1980s there was a live action show based on the fairytale Rapunzel starring the puppets of Mr Roger's Neighborhood and some of it's human costars. The Lady Elaine puppet was the mother/witch and the human woman that was always in Make Believe Land played the princess. There was a scene where the human prince is pushed out the tower window and his eyes are scratched with thorns and then he crawls around in the desert bleeding and crying out for several minutes.
Yes, hell yes. When I was very young, in the late 70s and early 80s, I lived in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. I used to watch Sesame Street as all kids did, on PBS. When there was an interruption in the broadcast, a black and white image of the main SS characters would come on screen. The image horrified me for some reason. I would scream bloody murder and cry. Snuffleuppagus off to the left was this floating head and his long trunk, no body. I had dreadful insomnia for years, as every time I closed my eyes to go to sleep, Snuffleuppagus would slowly form in my vision off to the left. Every night. I would only fall to sleep from pure exhaustion. I have tried, as an adult, to find the same image to see if I am equally horrified as an adult, but I have not been successful (and that is possibly a very good thing, who knows? I could be back into the cycle all over of that eerie black and white head and trunk forming in my mind when I closed my eyes).
yea the first couple episodes of r.l. stines the haunting hour with the doll actually traumatized me. it made me so afraid that my dolls would come kill me. one night i even woke up having a panic attack and since then i've had to sleep with a lamp on in my room.
Thank you for pointing out the detail that "Candle Cove" was broadcasted on Local 58. While "Candle Cove" has become associated with the paranormal, both it and Local 58 have the connection of being sinister media you weren't supposed to see - including the connection of a dark "Show for Children" starring a skeleton.
I doubt that Kris planned for these connections from the beginning, but it's insanely good writing and world building nonetheless.
I mean it was “mainstream” af but The Teletubbies. What creeped me tf out was the vacuum that would go around sucking up the messes in their little bunker or whatever. Shit you not I straight up believed as a child that the vacuum was unhinged and would come out of the TV and suck me up too and well, goodbye lil Kate, parents would never know what happened to me
I remember this show from the 80's. It came on a low budget channel. It was really creepy. I don't care if they're calling it a Creepypasta, I remember watching this show as a kid. Could this be a Mandela Effect?
There is a document author of the creepypasta. The brain makes up memories.
Shared false memories, something similar happened with "ever dream this man?". Something about the brain trying to fill in gaps, I belive? Either way it's weird, but interesting.
I remember this show from when I was really little. What I remember was a house and a few puppets, and they would end every episode by singing the words "so long" and the door to the house would close. It wasn't anything creepy, it's just been on my mind for the past few years and I haven't been able to figure out what it was or if it was real.

I personally really like this creepy pasta and think it’s so inventive and unique!
my siblings and i have a similar experience with a german movie called “the ketchup vampires” when you look it up, there is no information except where to buy copies of the movies. i have both “ketchup vampires” 1 and 2 so i know that the movies are real, but nobody else has ever heard of them. very underground, i guess? but what’s creepy is that on IMDB there’s no cast, no director listed, only Elvira Mistress of the Dark. that’s it, no info. there might not even be a synopsis available, and if there is, it’s only three sentences that aren’t really indicative of the plot. very strange. gives me a “does anyone remember candle cove” vibes.
