Hey Battington! I love your early work. I’m sorry about what happened to your characters, but you should feel proud for getting this far. Can wait for S2E3
I know this is a month late but Britain's first big serial killer was a man named the muffin man as he would lure kids with muffins down a real road named drury lane and killed them. So thats a (not so) fun fact! Dark but yeah. That's what the nursery rhyme was based on. (why are so many nursery rhymes so dark...)
Frankly, the idea of having a build a Bear with a recording of Mat saying "Nobody wants a toy with my voice coming out of it" is absolutely GOLDEN to me.
matpat in his 4 theory channels: these characters are dead, and there is solid proof! matpat in gt live: so this is taking place in Gene Simmons' house
I was never a fan of horror, and I'm too easily scared to watch them on my own, but I LOVE watching them with Mat and seeing his theory process at work
You've got it backwards, Matt! It's Martin who killed the dog, who assumed his wife was cheating on him with Arthur and therefore killed her, and then killed Arthur and puthim into the IceCream man.
Yeah, indeed. It's the Emergency Alert System (EAS) sound that plays in the United States. It always scared the heck out of me when I used to hear/see it come on suddenly during watching children's shows and stuff. It still freaks me out a bit.
A good psychological horror series is Mister Manticore's Monument Mythos series. It's really good and is still on going (plus there's some really interesting LORE).
@@SuperMandibleclaw Do they go by They/Them prounons? I've been wondering how to address the new camera people (Ash and Mirror Mat) but couldn't find their preferred prounons anywhere
Martin (main creator) saw how everyone and everything had to be in control. He knew the dog wouldn't obey, so he hit it with the car. His wife was presumed cheating with Arthur, so he killed them both. He is a man obsessed with control and the only way to ever get that is by placing them into the minds of machines and toys. I can't wait for you to see more Matt!!
i wanna hear a "and that's just a theory, A GAME THEORY" come screaming out of my build a bear. i feel it would be the most terrifying and amazing thing to have.
For future reference Matt, a GREAT mother's day/ b day gift for steph would be a build-a-bear made by Ollie with a recording of him saying happy mothers day or I love you. Did that for my mom when I was little and she still loves it to death. If I ever have kids I'll do it too.
I'm slowly becoming convinced that, the more I watch GTLive, the closer I am to being attacked by something supernatural infecting their uploads. And yet, here I am still, smiling while alternates run amok through Matpat's house...
I read Bunnicula as a child and was charmed when the rest of the pets took it upon themselves to help it, but when it comes down to strange vampires it was Count Duckula that amused me.
I was actually hoping this was gonna be covered because Battington is definitely an interesting creator with some projects he has. If you get a Chuck-E-Cheese esque aesthetic, you aren’t wrong he has that nostalgic look in a lot of his designs. Definitely worth the look into his work.
I've seen several comments about having a recording of MatPat's voice in a stuffed animal, and I love the idea. But instead of just the Game Theory outro, it should have all of the channels' outros. It would also be cool to include some of his common phrases like "it's interesting..."
The betrayal that martin was talking about in "Goodbye Arthur" references the fact that Martin believed that Gloria(Martin's wife) and Arthur(Martin's brother) were having an affair. In reality, Gloria was finding comfort in Arthur because she was able to finally tell Arthur about the horrible things that Martin was doing i.e the killings. Martin mistook this for an affair and this is why Martin killed Arthur and Gloria.
Mat watching a video called Good bye Arthur, watching the entire conversation between Arthur and Martin, and then deciding Martin died and became the ice cream guy....it just feels like a very MatPat thing. All the attention to detail, and then one accidental name mix.
XD, it's very on brand. Catches all the little nuances, theory crafts as he goes, yet accidentally glosses over the simplest bit. He thinks so far outside the box he forgets to look in the box!
39:58 This part is a common mistake with viewers. Gloria, Martins wife, wasn't having an affair. But just like everyone else, Martin jumped to the conclusion that she was.
@@purplecat6578 yeah, I think Martin is infertile and their children are actually Arthur's children. She lied and said they were Martin's because he started getting aggressive when she wasn't getting pregnant
32:06 - MattPat, you 100% need to make a horror series around this moment. Some guy theorizing about analog horror, hearing weird stuff in a new studio, as he researches it the world gets more and more warped and he can't figure out if he's seeing reality or going crazy.
Fredrick Thomas Linwood, "the muffin man", was indeed a serial killer who murdered fifteen children by luring them into alleys with muffins. He did actually live on Drury Lane in England between 1589 and 1598, I believe. The country's first serial killer. The "song" was more of a warning to children to stay away from the muffin man. So, you're theory is actual history.
At a little before 33:00 when they’re talking about mat’s animatronics that he keeps in his house, I realized that William Afton was the original furry
26:47 Seriously, the most terrifying thing to me in ANY analog horror that I've ever watched is that horrible, sad, and hyperrealistic (in a good way) face of the wife that died, always following around in the episodes. Nothing compares to the absolute terror that face makes me feel when I see it appear.....
It's interesting to see others legitimately creeped out by the stretched and distorted kinds of faces, while it's something that doesn't really get to me at all? The terrifying inanimate objects on the other hand...
@@kitnal4143 Yeah, that's the wife. I forgot who killed her, but she appears throughout the series and even has a video dedicated to her and her poor transformation into that sad and horrifying "spirit"...
My dad is at the hospital and the gt live episodes have helped so much through it. He’s going through a heart operation so I think you can imagine the stress and mathews videos have helped me through the stress. His content brings me joy and millions of others (: keep it up mat pat, much love!
... After hearing Matt talk about people not wanting a doll with his voice.... I gotta be honest, all I could think is that I would buy a Pipichu that says "But Hey, That's just a Theory!"
Happy Friends was pretty creepy. The children's begs for mercy and the creature at the end actually had me do a double take, which doesn't happen often from how desensitized I've become to scary stuff
yes!! i absolutely love this series, its so underrated compared to other analog horror/youtube spooks but its SO GOOD, battington’s work never disappoints
I think it’s really interesting to note that when the shadow figure appears in the arthur tape, there is an amber alert sound playing in the background
Hearing Matt talk about bunnicula gave me so many flashbacks to my favorite book related to it being the slight spin-off called Howliday inn which followed the cat and dog from bunnicula as they were put into a pet boarding.
This series may be all over the place. I understand people's concerns about it. But you got to admit that Battington is a pro at animations. Honestly one of the most underrated analog horror series.
36:38 - When he mentioned the stain on his bumper, my brain looked back to the "are you happy" episode, and to the end credits with Banzo. "He was still moving when he hit my bumper." Can't wait for the theory, Matpat!
Is it just me or does anyone else wish we could see mirror Matt and Ash just once? Would love to see the faces of the voices that have made me cackle so frequently this year!
Mirror Matt you can easily find on his fandom page, where you can see his side profile as well as his linked in profile with a full face PFP. As for Ash, well... You can find her Reddit profile as well as her Twitter profile on her Fandom page. Nothing else is really know about her
i mean i know i wouldnt be the only one who would totally love a FNAF Build-a-Bear crossover that had Mat's voice inside of it saying "That's just a theory. A GAME THEORY"
When it comes to horror I'm not really affected by images but throw creepy distorted sounds and that's what gets me.As someone who loves getting scared I love how they incorporate not just the visuals but also auto
Battington’s Harmony and Horror is such a good series in my opinion. I hope Mat can watch the whole thing. A decent chunk of the story can be explained by the Christmas special so I recommend saving that for last
31:26 yea, actually where's mirror matt? What happened to him? Dont tell me he got stuffed into an animatronic 😰 Kinda miss that guy, the three of you are always in such perfect balance 😁
Aight so I might need to explain some things, but Henry is Martin's son, the shadowy figure is gloria, the icecream man is arthur and the dog is banzo (pronounced bon-zo) and the daughter gets shown later
I’m so glad Matt narrates these, because I love the LOOOOOOORRRRRRREEEE but I can’t look at the screen. Also that Among Us plushie is adorable and I’m comforted by the lemon yellow plushie crew keeping Matpat (and us) company.
Hey Ash, or whoever reads this, for the next episode would it be possible to turn down the Battington video audio, either in post or not? The static noise is really loud compared to everything else which feels like its gonna blow my eardrums out... it not thats completely understandable too
Yeah I was sitting here at a reasonable volume to be able to hear everyone and then that happened and I'm like either I'm not going to be able to hear them or I'm going to have these super loud random noises that keep peeving off my cats. I'm lucky my cats are used to my BS and love me lol
Bunnicula was one of my favorite books as a kid. I remember I got the first one and a different one at the book fairs my elementary school did. That probably started my love for vampire stories actually lol
I love the hockey part because it's absolutely true, when me or my teammates knock someone out on the ice or in the stands once we know they're ok the first thing we do is start laughing
14:10 They're actually making a low budget Winnie the Pooh Horror Movie, that has some reallly disturbing designs. Thought it was a joke, then heard about this whole public domain thing
I came up with this: There is a family, a dad, a mom, a daughter, a son, an uncle, and maybe a dog. The father made toys and abused his children, the man's wife and his brother Arthur, begged for him to stop. The father Martin is the box-headed toy maker, The mom Gloria is the girl with the gaping mouth, The son is Henry, The daughter is Sofia the dancing marionette, The uncle Arthur is the ice cream man, And if there is a dog, it is Banzo. (The dad made the dog into a toy, and when the kid realized, the dad beat them for crying and being unappreciative.) Edit: I have already watched 99% of these videos and feel like I am really close to the truth. You need to watch more of the videos soon. Happy Hunting! :)
I think there would be 3 brothers I dunno who they would be but in the missing tape where Banzo became a toy there were two brothers, either of them were called Henry but I can't remember their names. So Henry is one of them But the other two are unknown
@@KRTobiasYT that would make sense considering it talks about three dead kids and a dead dog (banzo) at the end of "Are you happy?" The boys in the video were named Marcus and Andrew
Great, now that Matt has predicted it, we are 100% getting a Winnie the Pooh movie/game/series/ETC, and knowing Matt, it's gonna somehow end up being a child-death related horror absolutely dripping with LORE
@@yeeyt464 gotta say. It definitely was quite different indeed. It had a bit of that thriller horror like vibe, buts it’s definitely got some differences for sure. I liked it a lot
I'm sorry, but I am so shocked how you weren't able to connect the dog whimpers to the Banzo animatronic after Aurther confronted Martin about the dog. Also, SPOILERS: Martin skinned Banzo (the family dog) before stuffing him in the animatronic like he did to everyone else 😁👍 nothing like family bonding
I haven't seen other comments of it so I just wanna say, late 2022 early 2023 we should be getting a horror retelling of winnie the pooh due to the public domain thing Matt was talking about @14:20 and I'm actually really excited for it
18:18 I agree with MatPat! My mom has a Slappy Dummy that I thought was in the attic, but it apparently is still on the top bookshelf, and I am terrified whenever I look at it!!!
Finally you're covering harmony and horror, extremely underrated especially when it comes to Season 2 and the quality within those episodes. Easily the best analog horror series on youtube so it's good to see some more mainstream recognition
Ew. My early videos. Which I should be proud of for getting me this far, but ew. Skip to season 2
no, they're amazing 🤩. I love your work on season 1
Hey Battington! I love your early work. I’m sorry about what happened to your characters, but you should feel proud for getting this far. Can wait for S2E3

@leafies that is a pretty negative connotation isn't it? I'll fix it c:

Exactly. He is so mixing them up
Finally, someone noticed.
I love that when they cut to the "backrooms" for the first time you can hear the signature alarm sound associated with Siren Head
Yeah, indeed. It's the Emergency Alert System (EAS) sound that plays in the United States. It always scared the heck out of me when I used to hear/see it come on suddenly during watching children's shows and stuff. It still freaks me out a bit.
I’ve never heard that alarm from siren head at all, that’s the EAS alarm for weather alerts that terrifies me greatly
That cut right after
Matt- "I have a theory the Muffing Man is really a serial killer"
Ash- "Sorry, what?"
...
Chills MattPat, literal chills
Kind of ironic that Ash’s answer to the question “What’s your favorite scary movie?” was “Scream”.
Ooooh my gooooosh!
The thing! she said the thing!
A good psychological horror series is Mister Manticore's Monument Mythos series. It's really good and is still on going (plus there's some really interesting LORE).

@@aisaciurlea6217 almost definitely based on the books

Hey Ash, or whoever reads this, for the next episode would it be possible to turn down the Battington video audio, either in post or not? The static noise is really loud compared to everything else which feels like its gonna blow my eardrums out... it not thats completely understandable too
Yeah I was sitting here at a reasonable volume to be able to hear everyone and then that happened and I'm like either I'm not going to be able to hear them or I'm going to have these super loud random noises that keep peeving off my cats.
I'm lucky my cats are used to my BS and love me lol
Bunnicula was one of my favorite books as a kid. I remember I got the first one and a different one at the book fairs my elementary school did. That probably started my love for vampire stories actually lol
I love the hockey part because it's absolutely true, when me or my teammates knock someone out on the ice or in the stands once we know they're ok the first thing we do is start laughing
I seriously LOVE when u react to analog horror. It makes it so much easier to watch and I don’t feel alone watching. >:)
14:10 They're actually making a low budget Winnie the Pooh Horror Movie, that has some reallly disturbing designs. Thought it was a joke, then heard about this whole public domain thing
Fun fact: only the *book* version is public domain, the Disney one is still copyrighted by them. Basically: red top = stop, bare chest =best. 😂
At 16:06 when Matpat says “Can I build a bearz plz” I thought it was actually the video saying it and they were listening in on matpat XD
honestly if mat made a build a bear line of him saying, " but that's just a theory, a game theory." I and probably many others would buy it.
I came up with this:
There is a family, a dad, a mom, a daughter, a son, an uncle, and maybe a dog. The father made toys and abused his children, the man's wife and his brother Arthur, begged for him to stop. The father Martin is the box-headed toy maker,
The mom Gloria is the girl with the gaping mouth,
The son is Henry,
The daughter is Sofia the dancing marionette,
The uncle Arthur is the ice cream man,
And if there is a dog, it is Banzo.
(The dad made the dog into a toy, and when the kid realized, the dad beat them for crying and being unappreciative.)
Edit: I have already watched 99% of these videos and feel like I am really close to the truth. You need to watch more of the videos soon. Happy Hunting! :)
The only one you are missing is the baby
I think there would be 3 brothers
I dunno who they would be but in the missing tape where Banzo became a toy there were two brothers, either of them were called Henry but I can't remember their names.
So Henry is one of them
But the other two are unknown
@@KRTobiasYT I'm confused,there's two brothers right?
@@KRTobiasYT that would make sense considering it talks about three dead kids and a dead dog (banzo) at the end of "Are you happy?"
The boys in the video were named Marcus and Andrew
@Acer The Edge Lord I didn't say I was correct. I was just telling people my thoughts.
Oh boy....THIS one is gonna be NUTS XD I hope MatPat can get through them all. They are pretty horrifying
Great, now that Matt has predicted it, we are 100% getting a Winnie the Pooh movie/game/series/ETC, and knowing Matt, it's gonna somehow end up being a child-death related horror absolutely dripping with LORE
were already getting a winnie the pooh slasher where winnie and piglet go on a killing spree after being abandoned by christopher robin
@@gigglemuggz. that honestly makes me sad.
@@gigglemuggz. um excuse me what. what company is making that omg
Ash has officially changed my way of talking. At work I now say yeah bestie on an hourly basis
The witty banter in this video was actually so enjoyable, usually i just skip it but its pretty entertaining today
Been waiting a long time for The Battington tapes, the wait was worth it. Now, I’m off to see vol 333 Mandela Catalogue. Heard it was unique.
vol 333 of the MC was way different that the others, not spoilers but it was really different from the others
so how was it
@@yeeyt464 gotta say. It definitely was quite different indeed. It had a bit of that thriller horror like vibe, buts it’s definitely got some differences for sure. I liked it a lot
"When Van Helen say Jump, Ash jump" XD i love Ash
I wonder if there'll be a film theory on this series. I've been dying for something new in the analog horror world.
They're better be a film theory on this 💢
It could be a game theory because it's kinda like an ARG
@@GabbaGooober True
I'm sorry, but I am so shocked how you weren't able to connect the dog whimpers to the Banzo animatronic after Aurther confronted Martin about the dog. Also, SPOILERS:
Martin skinned Banzo (the family dog) before stuffing him in the animatronic like he did to everyone else 😁👍 nothing like family bonding
Someone needs to make a horror thing that's tailored to matts fears.
Ahhh so happy you finally got to watch them! I've been expecting some of my favs creators to watch it and you did it first x), really a nice surprise!
Reacting with MatPat and Ash helps me, because I don't like being terrified alone and they make it less terrifying. So thank you.🙃😅👍
Hey MatPat, I recommend the Macabre Experiment. It's based off of old creepypastas and is really terrifying and interesting
LOVE THIS- i cant watch horror on my own but u guys make it a lot better
I work at Build a Bear and I would like MatPat to know that the record your own sounds are $8 and not $20
Ash being a ginger human that likes horror but with not too many "jumpy jumps"... And with an amazingly sweet voice ♥ I love her even more now!
I haven't been having the best day but after seeing you uploaded it made me so much happier :)
I'd love a stuffed animal that just screamed "GAME THEORY!" At me
Kids these days will never realize the Horror of a Furby going off at 3am.
When you hug a build a bear and hear that’s just a theory a game theory
I haven't seen other comments of it so I just wanna say, late 2022 early 2023 we should be getting a horror retelling of winnie the pooh due to the public domain thing Matt was talking about @14:20 and I'm actually really excited for it
I would love a build a bear that just screams "But that's just a theory A GAME THEORY!!!" whenever I accidently squeeze it in the night
18:18 I agree with MatPat! My mom has a Slappy Dummy that I thought was in the attic, but it apparently is still on the top bookshelf, and I am terrified whenever I look at it!!!
I just need like 5 hours long video of Ash and Mat talking, it is so enjoyable!
Loved Bunnicula growing up. "The Celery Stalks At Midnight" is still one of my favorite book titles.
Ash and Matpat has the same synergy as hugbees arguing on that one video of making a ball inside out.
Finally you're covering harmony and horror, extremely underrated especially when it comes to Season 2 and the quality within those episodes. Easily the best analog horror series on youtube so it's good to see some more mainstream recognition
now I want a bear to say "THAT NOT A THEORY ITS A GAME THEORY" or Mat pat yelling " MUSICCCCCCCC MANNNNNNN" that would be so funny
28:30 definitely a nanny cam lol
Why is nobody talking about the weird noises mat and ash pointed out
Ash:"sorry,what?!"
Matpat:"yep"
