One of the members of the discord server was kind enough to do the French lines for me for the nurse character. Thanks so much Capy! Check out her youtube channel! ruclips.net/channel/UCoePomD0wOfLJLD3qwrfDQg
Your french was pretty good too! I would gladly offer my support for French voice overs but I don't think my mic quality would be enough for these amazing videos. In any case if you two need help I'd be happy to offer mine :)
I think the creature is a Nachzehrer - a German vampire which is "born" when someone dies from suicide or accidental death. My theory is the eccentric land owner who died at the beginning of the war is the nachzehrer and the place is understaffed because the people around the town knows what he turned into. He satiates his hunger by allowing his home to be used as a hospital so he can feed on those close to death. The death of the severely injured in a hospital during a war will not arouse suspicion.
I really like this theory! That would also explain why everyone keeps quiet about it- they'd rather pretend everything is fine, especially if they know who the monster really is.
Seems like a nice guy, then, actually. He lets his home be used as a hospital, and only feeds on those who will die anyway. He's not stealing anyone's innocence (not in wartime, anyway, although they may be innocent people), or hurting children. As far as murderous, flesh-eating monsters go, Mr. Gangly isn't so bad.
I wasn’t expecting this to be a World War ll Story, but I was pleasantly surprised when it was. The voice actor for Mr. Gangly knocked it out of the park. His voice was terrifying, as were the sound effects. Great job!
A parent killing their kids and themselves to keep them from being raped or tortured when an invading force comes in. A rancher putting his horse down because of a broken leg. Thanos snapping to rid the universe of half its population to prevent overcrowding All fucked up, all acts of mercy. My wording is fine sir, your understanding just needs to be better.
@@HippieInHeart Right! Thats exactly what i thought. Maybe suffocating him could be merciful but tearing apart his chest all obi wan kenobi style then ripping out his still beating heart aint no kinda mercy id want to go through.
I have a theory about why mr gangly attacked his friend and not Louis. What Gangly pulled out of his friend, to me, sounded like a tumour, not out of benevolence but that he picks his victims based on who is definitely dying. Just a theory, as always you did a magnificent job!
Thank you . I listened to the series out of order and couldn't think how Mr Gangly fit into All the stars in sky, I was thinking he feeds on that feeds on the dead but it makes sense now.
Nothing strange about it, i reached 6'6" by 13-14 but thankfully i stopped there. Anyone over 6'8" is a freak of nature, let your friend know. Just incase.
Dude I have a friend who's 7'4, he has gigantism and his growth only recently got stopped. He's tall and thin too, but a really cool guy none the less.
God, I've missed these kinds of your narrations. Your gift shines through this one like a beacon in the darkness. I know you reached out to us in the last few days...you knew...whatever it was, is gone. You really are an amazing artist. Let it shine. Thank you, Ronnie
The fifth trumpet is my favorite narration by somnium, oh and that figure was a fallen angel that was binding you to laws of creation to keep the creator in a loop of creation and destruction to save himself(fallen angel) and other fallen angels.
I used to watch other narrators but I can't anymore because they feel empty without the Solomon's narration and sound design skills so uh thanks for ruining that for me
I'm in the same boat here. Part of me is happy and respects the high quality of these, but then it makes every other channel just feel flat and I'm suddenly on life support waiting for Ron to upload
@@lostcausegaming4068 DrCreepen is also amazing he is the only addition to the above list I'd add. There are some of these guys that are soooo bad, it is truly refreshing to the ears mind and soul when a quality narrator finds their way onto your Playlist.
@@shawnteknapstad3379 Currently subbed to Dr.Creepen but I have to admit that his narrations are definitely lower quality compared to Somnium, Mr.Creepypasta, and Nature'sTemper. His characters almost always sound out of breath when they speak. Small criticism but still gets grating after a while.
Thanks Ronnie for always giving me something to look forward to even during my darker times I always find my self calm and lying here listening to the sound of your voice so honestly just thank you so much
Thank you for yet another great story! Every single night you play on my nightstand. You're literally my most watched youtuber for a very long time now. Keep it up man, you're killing it
The description of post-war Paris sounds a lot like what my grandparents told me. To be fair, the entire setting is really well-thought-out, historically speaking! Kudos to the writer. I loved your narration, you put a lot of emotions and just the right pacing in your work, which I really appreciate. Keep up the excellent work! 😊
Aw thank you! Honestly though I have more than I ever thought I would, so if I never gained anymore I would be more than happy with the community I have :)
Really enjoyed the narration of my story. Thanks for helping bring it alive in a way that written word can't! Psst, last name's spelled wrong in the description, heh.
Well, damn. This was open ended. I now need a whole novel that talks of Corporal Lewis' exploits in discovering and avenging his friend ... or discovering something even crazier
I tried other creepasta but the only one that has really caught my attention. I don't mean no offense to the other readers out there and haven't looked up them all. I have a particular set of skills and they draw me to Dark Somnium. You have a skill and so do the writer's to all that work so hard to bring others happiness.
Got my mate to watch all 11 episodes with me the other day, freaked him out a bit but he liked it, my brother made me watch it years ago and I rewatch it every now and then
People know the saying fight or flight but those aren't the only instinctual options. There's also freeze and fall. Freeze is when you get so scared you just freeze, you can't move or speak. Fall is passing out. You either fight, run, can't move out of fear or pass out. Fight, flight, freeze or fall.
Loved this narration. I only listen to yours and Dr creepen. I love the emotion you give as the situation climaxes , Along with the music. Its like a full production. Please keep up the great work
This might be a stretch, but Mr. Gangly kinda reminds me of SCP-542: Herr Chirurg. A disfigured German scientist who goes around harvesting organs from people to replace his own. He also wears a cloak to hide his features, is described as having a boney face, and claimed to have worked with the Germans during WWII. Though, that wouldn't explain the second row of teeth, the knife fingers, the elongated head, hairlessness, or his height. In other words, there are enough differences that it's safe to say that Mr. Gangly is not SCP-542 But, going off of those similarities, I think the nurse was right when she said Mr. Gangly was a scientist who experimented on himself. And he probably stole Johnston's heart to either replace his own, to experiment on, or to eat. And he's been hanging around the hospital to harvest organs from those who are near death, and intimidating the staff into covering his tracks.
@@johnmckenna5782 omg is that why? I thought he was going back because the nurse told him not to tell anyone about mr.gangly but here he is writing this letter
I see a lot of people commenting on someone's German in the video, can't wait to see! I'm a bit of a World War connoisseur, so when I heard "Pushing out of Normandy" and "Germans" my eyes lit up.
I just love listening to you! The truly great production that all of your vids become is just worlds away from every1 else & that’s just how it is. ♥️♥️♥️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I noticed twords the end as it got a bit quieter, there seemed to be the sound of poping and cracking like a old analog record, did you do this as a effect, its not very loud but it is there....
I absolutely love your narration and your voice is very good it's creepy but smooth nice if you can do tell some more he'll stories they really touch home
Monsieur Gangly showed up again in the dark somnium's most recent story, "all the stars in the sky" wich was connected to another recent story "the destiny machine"
I have a "gangly" (he's more lanky) friend named Ray who's 7'4 tall. He has gigantism and acromegaly. Really lovely guy. from now on I might call him mr gangly
Sounds a lot like a creature from the series The Strain. A very similar creature is either killing people or making them his slaves but also it did appear during WW2 just like this one.

that was me :D thank you!
Wait why weren’t you expecting it to be WW2?
At least the monster had the manners to say "Good Night" before it left
"Pardon my intrusion. So sorry to disturb you. Breakfast is at 6. Just ring the front desk if you need anything."
I think Mr gangly knew the guy wasn't going to make it and decided to end his suffering in his own merciful way.
i like thinking of horror monsters as helpful creatures
In his own merciful way....was the key point in my theory.
A parent killing their kids and themselves to keep them from being raped or tortured when an invading force comes in.
A rancher putting his horse down because of a broken leg.
Thanos snapping to rid the universe of half its population to prevent overcrowding
All fucked up, all acts of mercy.
My wording is fine sir, your understanding just needs to be better.
wouldn't exactly call it merciful to tear a mans chest open and remove his heart while he's still conscious, but yeah, i get what you mean.
@@HippieInHeart Right! Thats exactly what i thought. Maybe suffocating him could be merciful but tearing apart his chest all obi wan kenobi style then ripping out his still beating heart aint no kinda mercy id want to go through.

This deserves a part two. What is he going back for. Does he plan on avenging his friend??? I need to know.
