Ok so here are the things I see as far as possible clues. -The opening has "eye" imagery with two distinct frames, back to back, with an audio and video glitch that draws a lot of attention to it. Eyes can hold a lot of symbolic value, or could be something to do with the moonlight and the brainwashing as we have to use our eyes to perceive the light. -Included frame of Newspaper with headline "Mine Now Burning". Other bolded statements on the newspaper are all tragic and depressing. I think my earlier speculation on the mine disaster mentioned in "Digital transition" may have been spot on. Current feeling is that it may be a sort of mass sacrifice to the entity. -Narrator comments on the county being founded by missionaries, may be early moon cultist. -Date mentioned for 1961. Vostok 1and Yuri Gagarin make history for being first man to orbit the Earth. (common conspiracy theories actually believe that he was just the first cosmonaut to actually survive and that many other cosmonauts made it into space, but didn't survive either the conditions of space or re-entry of the atmosphere) John F. Kennedy announces the Apollo program and his dedication to put a man on the moon. -Police sketch for the woman in profile notes 5 sighting dates. One in 1961, two in 1962, and one for 1963 and 1957 1962 events of note: US spacecraft Ranger 3 is launched to study moon, but misses. An incredibly rare astral event occurs where many of the visible planets line up with sun and moon creating a rare solar eclipse. The Mariner 2 passes Venus being the first spacecraft to transmit data from another planet. The actual date of the sighting 6/11/62 has the Pope convene an ecumenical council that hadn't been done for 92 years. 1963: A total Penumbral lunar eclipse. NASA launches first geosynchronous satellite, Syncom 2. JFK assassination. 1967: outer space treaty signed between USSR and US to prohibit weapons of mass destruction from being used in space. NASA launches lunar orbiter 3. Surveyor 3 probe lands on the moon. NASA announces APOLLO 7 mission(first with crew). Mariner 5 launched towards venus. The Patterson-Gimlin film of Bigfoot (have to include this obviously). Launch of first successful Saturn V rocket. -Witness to Hannah Burch murder. This apparently is a character from CandleCove -kids drawing that says "the lady can see me, even though I'm not up there". Probably just referencing that it has what appears to be two faces. -Mentions that she looks to the sky at Twilight....can't think of what this could mean, but my intuition is that it could mean something. -The creature has what appears to be two faces looking in opposite directions. One up, one down. -"A predator cannot differentiate prey from accomplice" mentioned for the first time outside the ARG. I'm going to wait until another release or two before making any new speculations on the series (apparently it's back now), but I do want to point out that my hunch on the mining disaster has some weight to it now. Other than that my brain is currently soup.
@@NormansIndexOk with the two faces I can think of a few things 1. Janus, Roman god of many things but importantly doorways, transitions, and the beginning and end of conflict. 2. Greek Hecate, a goddess associated with the moon, doorways, withcraft, and creatures of the night. While she has three faces and the female figure has two… the true face in the middle could be seen as a third face…
@@NormansIndex I don't believe the creature has two faces, I took it as the "faces" are just the sides of its head and it was always staring directly at us. Certainly more unsettling that way.

How does it feel to finish a video essay on a topic that has been dormant for two years, only to publish it _Right Before_ it comes back with a double feature?
Oh cool the hidden vid is public and they confirmed something quite horrifying. Thx for telling I had no idea but damn the actual new vid had some scary shit!
There's a detail he didn't mention about the moon in Show For Children that I always thought was something important disguised as an animation error. Before Cadavre reaches the first grave, a tree comes into frame and passes OVER the moon as one would expect since the moon is way far away and the tree is in the foreground. But after Cadavre looks in the second grave and sees the beaked thing, another tree comes into frame and passes UNDER the now freaky-faced moon. I don't know if that was ever confirmed to just be an error or if the theories around it were ever proven wrong, but at the time people thought it implied that the sinister moon that keeps appearing (such as the much closer one in Skywatching) is a separate body entirely and possibly replaced the moon or is covering it. A much smaller heavenly body in the sky at a much closer distance (and with substantially less mass) could potentially obscure the moon from view and would explain the lack of natural catastrophe that would result from the real moon being vastly closer. It could also be the moon itself but replaced or corrupted by something else, and the animation bloop in Show For Children merely represents this change in its state.
My favorite aspect of the Black Paintings of Goya is that he never named any of them, the whole connection to Saturn Devouring His Son is educated guesswork at best. It very well could have been raw madness, devoid of context or meaning.
I really wish I would have communicated that better than I did in hindsight. It's an absolutely inspiring topic that sent me on a whole separate rabbit hole when I was doing my research. When I was making my own speculations in regards to it's inclusion in local 58, it was based on general interpretation and name given to the work, rather than a personal interpretation or alternative modern interpretations. I feel that the general interpretation and name better coincides with my speculation on it's inclusion with "Ivan the terrible and his son Ivan". Of course that is all speculation, but that's what makes this fun. As far as my initial reaction to the painting before discovering it's name and history, my thoughts slid towards Nephilim. Anyways, I really appreciate this sort of comment, thank you.
@@DemortixxVaatiVidya is a youtuber who does lore readings for the games of fromsoftware, like Dark souls. Due to the nature of the games, the lore is very much meant to discussed and interpreted according to each player's own experience, but far too many people now just wait for vaatividya to put a video out and take it as gospel. It's also gone to Vaati's head. The guy is insufferably smug.
I remember watching local 58 when I was younger and being so afraid to look outside at the moon afterwards that it continues to stick to me today, it's such a good analog horror I love it‼️‼️
I think "You are on the fastest available route" will forever remain my favorite despite not quite fitting in with the rest because without the supernatural elements it just feels so real. I think anyone who's driven long stretches through remote parts of the country has had their GPS recommend some strange roads before and the drive can be a little unsettling late at night, with that thought in the back of your mind along the lines of "what if I broke down out here?". The idea of something sinister luring you down those desolate roads using the GPS just adds an extra layer on what can already be an unnerving experience.
I legit freaked out when Local58 posted a new video on Halloween, after a year of silence We have regularly scheduled car-bearing ferries in Seattle, WA. Many folks commute on them daily. It's not that odd Blair Witch Project is specifically found footage; the equipment used was contemporary for the era it was created in, so I don't know if it necessarily fits into analog horror, which is specifically looking back in time at old footage obtained via obsolete media
@29:00 Narcoleptic here. I too often hallucinate during the day because im randomly entering rem sleep w/o being conscious of it (i might feel like ive blinked my eyes and see something, however it could be 5-10 minutes later and i slept w/o knowing) and then Ill hear/see things for a while. Its mostly under control but man is it weird. another thing, bc earlier you mentioned the goofy warped faces- i always thought they were lame til maybe a month ago when i learned that...some of my hallucinations may not actually be that- I very well may have demon face syndrome. If you look it up there was a study that created images based on someone w the disorder and ffs i cant look at them- theyre too dead on. Anyway maybe thats what people started to try to tap into, and somewhere along the way it was imitated w/o really understanding the why okay time to continue watching ^^ great work, guy!
A quick thing on memento mori, it's less interpreted as a pessimistic worldview and more of a reminder to find meaning while you can. The second phrase that often follows "remember you must die" is "remember to live." Lots of the living live in a way closer to the dead, and vice versa.
I'm very proud of the creator for evolving. I admit I thought it was dumb at first when it was mainly just psa videos about the monsters, but it's cool to see them evolve with cgi, props, special effects, and now voice acting! It's fun to see creators evolve and get better
The Golden Throne isn't an amplifier as such, it's a focusing lens. The thousand sacrifices a day isn't a fixed number, it just sounds cool as an average. The idea for the Golden Throne was to have a giant psychic gun aimed into the Webway. The Emperor and Malcador were going to, essentially, blast the Webway with psychic energy to get rid of the Eldar, then use it for the Imperium. That gets rid of Warp travel, which weakens Chaos.
@@NemFX- presumably just the literal seat part though, seeing as the false emperor wasn't a psychic juggernaut like Malcador, who the actual Golden Throne nevertheless fried to crispy ashes in abt 5 minutes flat! The actual Golden Throne is, I believe, the single largest machine in the galaxy, and many of its parts are confirmed to be of unknown Xenos origin, and according to the Dark Eldar, humanity has totally misunderstood their intended original purpose. But then I guess they would say that, wouldn't they...
@@jimdoom2276To be fair, humanity doesn’t understand much of anything about most of the tech it uses. They just cobble together shamanic operating procedures from distorted fragments of the original protocol, which is comedically inefficient.
24:40, I’m not a superstitious person, so I went in all smug thinking “huh some silly internet thing isn’t gonna scare me”, I just woke up an few minutes ago, and I’m genuinely horrified at what my brain concocted
This is so well done! I'd like to raise a possibility - what if the moon entity is contained within, or made of, moonlight? There's references to the moon 'coming in' through windows, and I think once the entity refers to itself as coming in. Light is also on the same electromagnetic spectrum as radio waves. The scary things that Cadaver sees are all bathed in moonlight. Etc, etc.
i remember going deep on the Book of Job, Orion, Pleiades on the actual original local 58 vid and ppl were like 'nahhh, that's a reach' glad to see someone else actually going after that thread
@@WobblesandBean The very first frame of Local 58 says 'Focus on... Faith' and the Book of Job is expressly about Faith and mentions Orion and Pleiades in the SAME SENTENCE while Skywatching has it in back to back scenes. It's actually not that big a reach, you just lack imagination.
I also thought it was a bit of a reach because those are just two very easy to spot constellations in the northern hemisphere's night sky, but I couldn't help but notice that the year 1938 is when that cave sleep experiment took place and is the year Local 58 started broadcasting. As he said in the video, the line from Job is 38:31. When a number shows up that many times, I sort of start to believe it's not just a big reach. Of all the current videos on the Local 58 channel, 6 of them were posted on the 31st (all of these are October 31, Halloween), and 3 of them are just 1 day off from the 31st (one of them is from June however, which only has 30 days). This could just be because the videos are spooky so it's in the Halloween spirit to post them around that date, but the repetition of both 38 and 31 could lend some credence to the connection with the Book of Job.
Every once in a while I come across gold on RUclips. Just absolute amazing channels that make the niche content I look for. Watching these channels grow is a joy in it of itself. Great stuff you made man and here's to many more.
18:50 the 476 megahertz is also the frequency of an unknown transmission that we received from somewhere in outer space. Just some tones but still interesting.
The only reference to 476MHz I can find is the upper edge of channel 14 on old-school American UHF TV (and some offshore oil rig communications out in the Gulf of Mexico). And by old-school, I mean back when we pointed particle accelerators at our faces, and tuning to a channel that didn't exist showed you the terrible secret of space instead of a blue screen. (CRTs, and the terrible secret of space is just gray and white static, but a couple percent of that static is the faint leftover screams of the beginning of the universe.)
I have to say yours is the best analysis of Local58 I have watched and now I get it how well incorporated H. P. Lovecraft is in this lore. You're also the first one to explain the number 58 in the name. Subscribed! 💗
I'd feel remiss if I didn't mention a few connections to Kris Straub's other works in Local58: Cadavre comes from _Broodhollow_ , a webcomic Straub also does. He shows up in characters' dreams in that comic Some of the towns the channel services include Broodhollow, Ichor Falls (another Straub horror location and the name of another horror project), Edenvale, and Lasker City, both are locations mentioned in _Broodhollow_ And of course, Local58 first appeared in Straub's works as the channel that aired the infamous _Candle Cove_
the flash face distortion effect, which is what that one with the faces was based on, is pretty weird and i think it was just stumbled upon. turns out if you rapidly cycle through different faces, 1 on each side of the screen, and you just focus on the middle between them, they just look wrong somehow. then you go back and they're completely normal faces. it's like a mind glitch or something. there are multiple videos of it on youtube
@@WhitneyDahlin the Local 58 video is just spooky video. it's the other "flashed face distortion effect" videos on RUclips that are meant to show this effect. it's nothing drastic, but for me it looks like their eyes are weird or other facial features are somehow wrong, but then if you rewind and look at those same faces again directly, they're completely normal people. maybe it doesn't work with some people? i don't know
the most accepted reason for the flash face distortion effect is that it flashes just fast enough that you brain has not fully processed it (things in your focus are prioritized more), so the faces get layered and this layering appears as distortion
You have the look of someone who uses that telescope to look up every night, see one more incomprehensible threat arriving from space, go “Ugh not this again,” grab your shotgun, and head out to put it down, night after night. Seriously great video, bud. Keep up the great work. This channel will be huge one day soon! 👍
I’m glad RUclips algorithm decided to recommend this video I fell asleep to it and I’m back to watch it fully bc it’s so intriguing! Subbed, I can’t wait to see what you make next
Amazing analysis here, love the inclusion of real world inspirations and potential connections with figures who pioneered their fields - love local58/analog horror and the content created on it and this one sticks out as particularly insightful!!
@@skoovee I honestly have no respect for people who attempt to shoot down positive comments with their negativity - In fact, such behaviour disgusts me. And I'm getting too dang old and tired to entertain that kind of BS. Therefore, my straightforward, "extreme" reaction.
@@KorilD you are being more negative than that guy who just said they disagree with your view, not agreeing with you is not trying to "shoot down" your comment. you should learn how to handle differing viewpoints, its a very important skill
This video was great, I'm so excited to see what other content you make! I put this on mostly as background noise to work on a project, but I had to rewind the whole thing because I was so interested. You have a great way of speaking, keep making videos please!!
Hey, i remember hearing the whole "this message will repeat until there are none left to hear it" in this one scp or horror related reading that was exploring some alternate dimension or planet where reality was fragmenting and the remnants of the former civilization was very similar. When the signal was translated it spoke about "Something terrible had happened, suggested to embrace loved ones in final momemts, and message would repeat until none left to hear it" Edit: found it, it's SCP-3426. A phenomenon that causes the total eradication of a planetary civilization once it reaches a certain level of technological and social advancement. Judging by the date the scp entry was made I would say, it's probably a neat little nod to this analog horror series
You know, i've always imagine the moon is behaving a bit like SCP-001 when day breaks. People are not as much kneeling as they are melting, it even has the compulsion to make people go outside. I guess the moon is a mix between SCP-001 and the markers from dead space, not a pretty way to go.
great video, had me enthralled the entire way through, which is pretty good considering I usually have videos like this on in the background while I work on other things, excited to see what other things you make!
I was a history major with an art history minor. Francisco Goya was my favorite to write about. Fun(?) fact, he was a witness to Napoleon's invasion of Spain and the atrocities that this brought upon people. The theory was that this caused severe PTSD and led to the mindset that he found himself painting the Black Paintings at the end of his life. You can read about his painting "The 2nd and 3rd of May, 1808" to learn more about his experiences with the invasion. His Etchings are also very interesting to look at, another look into the dark mind that may have been caused from seeing the bloodshed of the invasion.
proud to say I'm your 100th subscriber! I love your content dude, your perspective is refreshing, and the way you narrate is comprehensive! I can't wait for more videos!
Note that "The Era of Home Recording" Easter egg actually begins at the end of the preceding paragraph [directly following "Never lose a single moment again."]: Time, at once both warden and thief, laid low by gossamer loops of air and iron. Here is a greater, finer memory than that of men.
I remember seeing their second video on 4chan when I was a kid and thinking it was a real leaked public announcement the USA had prepared just in case.
i thought this would just be another local 58 breakdown video but you pointed out details i’ve never seen pointed out in the countless other local 58 vids i’ve seen. i really appreciate how detailed you get with this. i fucking love local 58, thank you!!!
This is impressive analysis and much more in depth than I've ever seen. I did a watch/reaction on stream for the CLOSE video as it was airing.I have a lot of analog horror unfiction stuff on my page. Glad I stumbled on this channel as I'm a small creator as well. If you ever want to collab or need any astronomy / physics related info hit me up. If not, thats cool too, no pressure. Anyway my degree is in astrophysics, might as well make use of it as much as I can.
As someone who isn't an astrophysicist, but loves space, I will absolutely take you up on that offer. I know there are some topics I will eventually cover where I will definitely need some insight. As an astrophysicist yourself, how off the mark am I when it comes to my conclusion on Eidolons trajectory? It's towards the end of the video, so no worries if you didn't make it that far.
OMG you are the first person I’ve ever seen online who mentioned Land between the lakes!!! That brought back so many memories for me, both good and bad
Local 58 was my first exposure to analog horror and I think it's still the best example of it. It's always unnerved me more than anything else and it's taken forever to work out why but I think I've worked it out. I grew up in the late 80s/early 90s and during this time camcorders became increasingly easy to buy, and consequently there was this explosion of "UFO Footage" TV shows that I was addicted to and terrified of as a kid, and the camcorder footage in Local 58 nails some of the shakiness and distortion. The other big thing growing up in the UK at least was nuclear death paranoia; most people my age in the UK have seen or heard of the film "Threads" which traumatised an entire generation about nuclear war, plus I remember after the Chernobyl disaster seeing news articles on what alerts might have sounded like if the disaster had posed any risk to the UK. So this combination of apocalyptic events and homely local TV stations sounding warning sirens and preparing you for imminent doom is just hardwired to my fear response as an adult.
This was the first video when i opened youtube and i am so glad i watched it. The way you speak and the way you explain things is easy to follow and your voice is perfect for video essays like this. I had heard about this analog horror series before but never got into it but this video has made me want to research further. I'm surprised you don't have more subscribers dude your videos are awesome keep up the good work🙏
I love the sort of campfire storytelling vibe you're giving off! I'm too much of a weenie to watch the stuff myself but I love seeing analyses like this :D Good shit!
You hooked me with just seven minutes in the intro. Well done on the efficiency of the sequence and now I am looking forward to more long-form content from you!
i really enjoyed this, and the rest of your channel. you definitely don't *need* a huge following or fancy setup like nexpo to please your audience. it was very refreshing to see the same intelligent input and enthusiasm in a more casual environment. it makes the video feel more personal and easier to keep up with. i'd love to see more creepy videos from you!!
Good job with this video buddy. I'm excited to know that Local 58 is still being produced. I think I tuned out 3 years ago and figured it was never getting finished.
By far the most researched video on Local 58 yet, love the work! I personally think the phrase "Parasite is to host, as inhabitant is to Environnement" is less of a motto and more of a mantra for the cultist to further remind themselves about their own brainwashing/madness. As to tell themselves "this is right" whenever a rational side surfaces and have them questioning if they should continue. Remember, the whole time the cultists have been trying to subvert the counter-cultists at every turn and shatter the mind of potential civilians by messing up their recognition of faces and REM sleep. They are twisted individuals that know how to play mind games.
Love how far wendiigoon has come in such short time. Yet the one who got me into analog and still makes it intercessor me is always Nick Nocturne/nightmind. But I just started following you and you're doing it justice.
This was such an amazing analysis! The depth and detail you got into was incredible. I really enjoyed this video, and subscribed! Can’t wait to see what you make next!🎉
Damnn this was such a good video and I'm shocked I've never heard of this series if it's really the originator of the 'analog horror' title! I can definitely see how it originated some recurring tropes. My only criticism is that I think your video would benefit from more visuals! I'd love to see the videos laid out on an actual time line because just hearing the dates didn't really cement them in my brain. Great work!!!
Huh, I had no idea Kris Straub was behind this. I read the guy's webcomics for years and was always sad that Broodhollow never finished. Nice to see the guy's kept busy.
Something worth mentioning is that Cadaver from Show for Children is actually a character from another of Kris Straub's projects called Broodhollow. A webcomic series.
Bro I love the video, probably my favorite Local 58 analysis that I've seen, I have happily subscribed and will be watching more of your stuff, thank you for your work!
Supeku is definitely one way to pronounce that XD Honestly tho, I'm happy this is my first introduction to local 58, it looks so cool and really well done.
what a great video. somehow im in Analog Horror analyitcs as much as im in t analog Horrer it self. Its just facinating on many levels.

Some may ask what's wrong with me or why I'm sending messages with "obscure" links in the middle of the night at 1:30 am.

I used to live 15 minutes from LBL. Have taken that ferry quite a few times. Also, me and my family now live on a dirt road that is 2.5 miles long, just to our place, surrounded by forests. Loving the video.
The Orson Well's Radio Show War of the Worlds and why sooo many people believed it was real is a very fascinating deep dive to get into. I really enjoyed learning about that point in our history.
I'm far too much of a wuss to watch any of these brilliant series, so ytbers such as yourself or wendigoon or crowmudgeon just come in clutch every time I want to experience the goodness without scaring myself half to death while doing so. Thank you for the great analysis and storytelling!!!
First of all good work, love the video but im curious innocents at 1:31:47 , ruby ridge in your first video, a man in your second video which i didnt investigate cause it scared me, this is really cool Cant wait to see what more you do, to have a very well made about video about interesting topics with a mystery that may connect them all, I really like the idea, keep it up
i am commenting and liking but honestly, thanks for putting out your original and new ideas and own experiences that related to the video, this was quite brain enrinching
18:31 it's the TV station's tuning frequency. You use a radio signal at a set frequency in the range of VHF/UHF (very high frequency/ultra high frequency) in order to transmit your broadcast, and the receiving end tunes to it to watch your broadcast. That's what a TV channel is in technical terms.
Didn’t realize that you only have 1.6k subscribers, you talk and record like someone who’s been doing this a lot longer. Definite up and comer, glad I got in on the ground floor, can’t wait to see where you go from here!
This has been the best analysis I've found on this site. I hope you do more as the story comes out. Just wanted to add: parents that k*ll children in the paintings...same with "Contingency" when it asked to take care of the "littlest patriots" first before yourself.
i'm not too far into the video but MAN you have such a nice voice to listen to!!! 16:58 - oh, this is a nice question!! i still have videos of it somewhere, but before i decided to be an artist full-time, i worked for my father as an errant book salesperson. it was for a short time and it ended with something worse than a car crash, but of all the things i did then, the one i cherish most was the ferry ride i would often take between our hometown and this other, somehow even smaller city lmao- the GPS never works in these places. it was mostly up to road signs and my father's batshit insane memory of the paths, ngl.
Oh, glad to hear someone else's parent knew batshit crazy directions! Mom's instructions are always right but BOY do they sometimes make me feel like I'm an extra in a horror movie whose horrible death is foreshadowed by missing person posters in the background.
Really good analysis. Some of the analyses about Local58 overcomplicate the story and speculate too much, but you did a good job of trying to keep it grounded (as much as you can with a story about an eldritch moon god).
1:06:55 it’s crazy, I’m an hour or so drive from mammoth cave. Growing up I heard a bunch of stories about that place and the experiments and productions that went on down there, how famous it was. I’ve never actually seen it in the wild like this. I kind of forget how impactful Mammoth Cave is. It’s spooky. I can’t wait to go back there again, haven’t been there since I was itty bitty
How do you theorize the newest episode fits into your already existing theory? Would love to hear it!
Ok so here are the things I see as far as possible clues.
-The opening has "eye" imagery with two distinct frames, back to back, with an audio and video glitch that draws a lot of attention to it. Eyes can hold a lot of symbolic value, or could be something to do with the moonlight and the brainwashing as we have to use our eyes to perceive the light.

(common conspiracy theories actually believe that he was just the first cosmonaut to actually survive and that many other cosmonauts made it into space, but didn't survive either the conditions of space or re-entry of the atmosphere) John F. Kennedy announces the Apollo program and his dedication to put a man on the moon.
-Police sketch for the woman in profile notes 5 sighting dates. One in 1961, two in 1962, and one for 1963 and 1957
1962 events of note: US spacecraft Ranger 3 is launched to study moon, but misses. An incredibly rare astral event occurs where many of the visible planets line up with sun and moon creating a rare solar eclipse. The Mariner 2 passes Venus being the first spacecraft to transmit data from another planet. The actual date of the sighting 6/11/62 has the Pope convene an ecumenical council that hadn't been done for 92 years.
1963: A total Penumbral lunar eclipse. NASA launches first geosynchronous satellite, Syncom 2. JFK assassination.
1967: outer space treaty signed between USSR and US to prohibit weapons of mass destruction from being used in space. NASA launches lunar orbiter 3. Surveyor 3 probe lands on the moon. NASA announces APOLLO 7 mission(first with crew). Mariner 5 launched towards venus. The Patterson-Gimlin film of Bigfoot (have to include this obviously). Launch of first successful Saturn V rocket.
-Witness to Hannah Burch murder. This apparently is a character from CandleCove
-kids drawing that says "the lady can see me, even though I'm not up there". Probably just referencing that it has what appears to be two faces.
-Mentions that she looks to the sky at Twilight....can't think of what this could mean, but my intuition is that it could mean something.
-The creature has what appears to be two faces looking in opposite directions. One up, one down.
-"A predator cannot differentiate prey from accomplice" mentioned for the first time outside the ARG.
I'm going to wait until another release or two before making any new speculations on the series (apparently it's back now), but I do want to point out that my hunch on the mining disaster has some weight to it now. Other than that my brain is currently soup.

There's a detail he didn't mention about the moon in Show For Children that I always thought was something important disguised as an animation error. Before Cadavre reaches the first grave, a tree comes into frame and passes OVER the moon as one would expect since the moon is way far away and the tree is in the foreground. But after Cadavre looks in the second grave and sees the beaked thing, another tree comes into frame and passes UNDER the now freaky-faced moon.
I don't know if that was ever confirmed to just be an error or if the theories around it were ever proven wrong, but at the time people thought it implied that the sinister moon that keeps appearing (such as the much closer one in Skywatching) is a separate body entirely and possibly replaced the moon or is covering it. A much smaller heavenly body in the sky at a much closer distance (and with substantially less mass) could potentially obscure the moon from view and would explain the lack of natural catastrophe that would result from the real moon being vastly closer. It could also be the moon itself but replaced or corrupted by something else, and the animation bloop in Show For Children merely represents this change in its state.
Glad someone else mentioned this, was going to do this myself.
Never even noticed this detail. Good catch
My favorite aspect of the Black Paintings of Goya is that he never named any of them, the whole connection to Saturn Devouring His Son is educated guesswork at best. It very well could have been raw madness, devoid of context or meaning.
I really wish I would have communicated that better than I did in hindsight. It's an absolutely inspiring topic that sent me on a whole separate rabbit hole when I was doing my research. When I was making my own speculations in regards to it's inclusion in local 58, it was based on general interpretation and name given to the work, rather than a personal interpretation or alternative modern interpretations. I feel that the general interpretation and name better coincides with my speculation on it's inclusion with "Ivan the terrible and his son Ivan". Of course that is all speculation, but that's what makes this fun. As far as my initial reaction to the painting before discovering it's name and history, my thoughts slid towards Nephilim. Anyways, I really appreciate this sort of comment, thank you.
thank you for clearing that up. its up for way more interpretation that way, it also nakes it far more disturbing imo.
Local 58 says that YOU should go outside and stare at the solar eclipse with no eye protection right now!!
That’s a great idea!

I think "You are on the fastest available route" will forever remain my favorite despite not quite fitting in with the rest because without the supernatural elements it just feels so real. I think anyone who's driven long stretches through remote parts of the country has had their GPS recommend some strange roads before and the drive can be a little unsettling late at night, with that thought in the back of your mind along the lines of "what if I broke down out here?". The idea of something sinister luring you down those desolate roads using the GPS just adds an extra layer on what can already be an unnerving experience.
I legit freaked out when Local58 posted a new video on Halloween, after a year of silence
We have regularly scheduled car-bearing ferries in Seattle, WA. Many folks commute on them daily. It's not that odd
Blair Witch Project is specifically found footage; the equipment used was contemporary for the era it was created in, so I don't know if it necessarily fits into analog horror, which is specifically looking back in time at old footage obtained via obsolete media
I'm pretty sure he also released the asteroid livestream on halloween one year as well.
Done it a couple times, myself.
yeah i wouldn't describe WOTW as "analog horror" either
yes! the seattle ferries! so fun to ride on them when i was younger and it was a regular thing
@29:00 Narcoleptic here. I too often hallucinate during the day because im randomly entering rem sleep w/o being conscious of it (i might feel like ive blinked my eyes and see something, however it could be 5-10 minutes later and i slept w/o knowing) and then Ill hear/see things for a while. Its mostly under control but man is it weird.
another thing, bc earlier you mentioned the goofy warped faces- i always thought they were lame til maybe a month ago when i learned that...some of my hallucinations may not actually be that- I very well may have demon face syndrome. If you look it up there was a study that created images based on someone w the disorder and ffs i cant look at them- theyre too dead on. Anyway maybe thats what people started to try to tap into, and somewhere along the way it was imitated w/o really understanding the why
okay time to continue watching ^^ great work, guy!
Fellow narcoleptic here. It's comforting to hear someone else has the hallucinations too. It makes me feel legit crazy sometimes.
Fellow narcoleptic, I had no idea that was what caused the hallucinations! Thanks))
A quick thing on memento mori, it's less interpreted as a pessimistic worldview and more of a reminder to find meaning while you can. The second phrase that often follows "remember you must die" is "remember to live." Lots of the living live in a way closer to the dead, and vice versa.
Vita Carnis is criminally underrated, especially cause it's one of the best Analog Horrors currently going.
Vita Carnis becomes less an "analog horror", and more like a standard "web series"
@@sertiana2512 It's analog enough imo, especially season 1. But the world building and storytelling is phenomenal.
I'm very proud of the creator for evolving. I admit I thought it was dumb at first when it was mainly just psa videos about the monsters, but it's cool to see them evolve with cgi, props, special effects, and now voice acting! It's fun to see creators evolve and get better
That and greylock are my two favorite analog horror series'
@@anticksss Yes! Same here, I love Greylock and Vitas Carnis!
The Golden Throne isn't an amplifier as such, it's a focusing lens. The thousand sacrifices a day isn't a fixed number, it just sounds cool as an average. The idea for the Golden Throne was to have a giant psychic gun aimed into the Webway. The Emperor and Malcador were going to, essentially, blast the Webway with psychic energy to get rid of the Eldar, then use it for the Imperium. That gets rid of Warp travel, which weakens Chaos.
It's quite fitting that the device the Emperor wanted to use to make a monument for himself ends up becoming more or less his tomb. Call it karma.
@@christopherwall2121 It wasn't made for himself. Parts of the Golden Throne were literally stolen from the False Emperor, from the first HH book :3

This is so well done! I'd like to raise a possibility - what if the moon entity is contained within, or made of, moonlight? There's references to the moon 'coming in' through windows, and I think once the entity refers to itself as coming in. Light is also on the same electromagnetic spectrum as radio waves. The scary things that Cadaver sees are all bathed in moonlight. Etc, etc.
Also stuff like "not light/but blood" sounds like what you're saying
i remember going deep on the Book of Job, Orion, Pleiades on the actual original local 58 vid and ppl were like 'nahhh, that's a reach' glad to see someone else actually going after that thread
It IS a reach. Massively so.
@@WobblesandBean The very first frame of Local 58 says 'Focus on... Faith' and the Book of Job is expressly about Faith and mentions Orion and Pleiades in the SAME SENTENCE while Skywatching has it in back to back scenes. It's actually not that big a reach, you just lack imagination.
@@JaxonRabbitehhh
I also thought it was a bit of a reach because those are just two very easy to spot constellations in the northern hemisphere's night sky, but I couldn't help but notice that the year 1938 is when that cave sleep experiment took place and is the year Local 58 started broadcasting. As he said in the video, the line from Job is 38:31. When a number shows up that many times, I sort of start to believe it's not just a big reach.
Of all the current videos on the Local 58 channel, 6 of them were posted on the 31st (all of these are October 31, Halloween), and 3 of them are just 1 day off from the 31st (one of them is from June however, which only has 30 days). This could just be because the videos are spooky so it's in the Halloween spirit to post them around that date, but the repetition of both 38 and 31 could lend some credence to the connection with the Book of Job.
Every once in a while I come across gold on RUclips. Just absolute amazing channels that make the niche content I look for. Watching these channels grow is a joy in it of itself. Great stuff you made man and here's to many more.
18:50 the 476 megahertz is also the frequency of an unknown transmission that we received from somewhere in outer space. Just some tones but still interesting.
This is incorrect. That transmission was at 1420 mHz.
The only reference to 476MHz I can find is the upper edge of channel 14 on old-school American UHF TV (and some offshore oil rig communications out in the Gulf of Mexico). And by old-school, I mean back when we pointed particle accelerators at our faces, and tuning to a channel that didn't exist showed you the terrible secret of space instead of a blue screen.
(CRTs, and the terrible secret of space is just gray and white static, but a couple percent of that static is the faint leftover screams of the beginning of the universe.)
I have to say yours is the best analysis of Local58 I have watched and now I get it how well incorporated H. P. Lovecraft is in this lore. You're also the first one to explain the number 58 in the name. Subscribed! 💗
I'd feel remiss if I didn't mention a few connections to Kris Straub's other works in Local58:
Cadavre comes from _Broodhollow_ , a webcomic Straub also does. He shows up in characters' dreams in that comic
Some of the towns the channel services include Broodhollow, Ichor Falls (another Straub horror location and the name of another horror project), Edenvale, and Lasker City, both are locations mentioned in _Broodhollow_
And of course, Local58 first appeared in Straub's works as the channel that aired the infamous _Candle Cove_

the flash face distortion effect, which is what that one with the faces was based on, is pretty weird and i think it was just stumbled upon. turns out if you rapidly cycle through different faces, 1 on each side of the screen, and you just focus on the middle between them, they just look wrong somehow. then you go back and they're completely normal faces. it's like a mind glitch or something. there are multiple videos of it on youtube
I tried but i dont think i saw it? Like they just looked like distorted face. I didnt see any normal faces in that dream part he showed or anything
@@WhitneyDahlin look at it closely, all of the “faces” are made up of nuclear blasts, mushroom clouds.
@@vermis0161
@@WhitneyDahlin the Local 58 video is just spooky video. it's the other "flashed face distortion effect" videos on RUclips that are meant to show this effect. it's nothing drastic, but for me it looks like their eyes are weird or other facial features are somehow wrong, but then if you rewind and look at those same faces again directly, they're completely normal people. maybe it doesn't work with some people? i don't know
the most accepted reason for the flash face distortion effect is that it flashes just fast enough that you brain has not fully processed it (things in your focus are prioritized more), so the faces get layered and this layering appears as distortion
Its always a joy getting another local 58 analysis its such a cool world

Hey, i remember hearing the whole "this message will repeat until there are none left to hear it" in this one scp or horror related reading that was exploring some alternate dimension or planet where reality was fragmenting and the remnants of the former civilization was very similar. When the signal was translated it spoke about "Something terrible had happened, suggested to embrace loved ones in final momemts, and message would repeat until none left to hear it"
Edit: found it, it's SCP-3426. A phenomenon that causes the total eradication of a planetary civilization once it reaches a certain level of technological and social advancement.
Judging by the date the scp entry was made I would say, it's probably a neat little nod to this analog horror series
I love your insight here! So many new and different perspectives to something I've watched on many quiet nights.

This is the best analysis I've seen on this, and I've watched a bunch of them. I've never heard anyone mention Greek mythology in any of them.
You know, i've always imagine the moon is behaving a bit like SCP-001 when day breaks. People are not as much kneeling as they are melting, it even has the compulsion to make people go outside. I guess the moon is a mix between SCP-001 and the markers from dead space, not a pretty way to go.
"This message will repeat until no one is left to read it" is taken from a different 001 as well. The Black Moon one

I was a history major with an art history minor. Francisco Goya was my favorite to write about. Fun(?) fact, he was a witness to Napoleon's invasion of Spain and the atrocities that this brought upon people. The theory was that this caused severe PTSD and led to the mindset that he found himself painting the Black Paintings at the end of his life. You can read about his painting "The 2nd and 3rd of May, 1808" to learn more about his experiences with the invasion. His Etchings are also very interesting to look at, another look into the dark mind that may have been caused from seeing the bloodshed of the invasion.

Glad I stumbled on this channel as I'm a small creator as well. If you ever want to collab or need any astronomy / physics related info hit me up. If not, thats cool too, no pressure. Anyway my degree is in astrophysics, might as well make use of it as much as I can.
As someone who isn't an astrophysicist, but loves space, I will absolutely take you up on that offer. I know there are some topics I will eventually cover where I will definitely need some insight. As an astrophysicist yourself, how off the mark am I when it comes to my conclusion on Eidolons trajectory? It's towards the end of the video, so no worries if you didn't make it that far.
OMG you are the first person I’ve ever seen online who mentioned Land between the lakes!!! That brought back so many memories for me, both good and bad
Local 58 was my first exposure to analog horror and I think it's still the best example of it. It's always unnerved me more than anything else and it's taken forever to work out why but I think I've worked it out. I grew up in the late 80s/early 90s and during this time camcorders became increasingly easy to buy, and consequently there was this explosion of "UFO Footage" TV shows that I was addicted to and terrified of as a kid, and the camcorder footage in Local 58 nails some of the shakiness and distortion. The other big thing growing up in the UK at least was nuclear death paranoia; most people my age in the UK have seen or heard of the film "Threads" which traumatised an entire generation about nuclear war, plus I remember after the Chernobyl disaster seeing news articles on what alerts might have sounded like if the disaster had posed any risk to the UK. So this combination of apocalyptic events and homely local TV stations sounding warning sirens and preparing you for imminent doom is just hardwired to my fear response as an adult.
This was the first video when i opened youtube and i am so glad i watched it. The way you speak and the way you explain things is easy to follow and your voice is perfect for video essays like this.

By far the most researched video on Local 58 yet, love the work!
I personally think the phrase "Parasite is to host, as inhabitant is to Environnement" is less of a motto and more of a mantra for the cultist to further remind themselves about their own brainwashing/madness.
As to tell themselves "this is right" whenever a rational side surfaces and have them questioning if they should continue.
Remember, the whole time the cultists have been trying to subvert the counter-cultists at every turn and shatter the mind of potential civilians by messing up their recognition of faces and REM sleep. They are twisted individuals that know how to play mind games.

Huh, I had no idea Kris Straub was behind this. I read the guy's webcomics for years and was always sad that Broodhollow never finished. Nice to see the guy's kept busy.
Something worth mentioning is that Cadaver from Show for Children is actually a character from another of Kris Straub's projects called Broodhollow. A webcomic series.

18:31 it's the TV station's tuning frequency. You use a radio signal at a set frequency in the range of VHF/UHF (very high frequency/ultra high frequency) in order to transmit your broadcast, and the receiving end tunes to it to watch your broadcast. That's what a TV channel is in technical terms.

16:58 - oh, this is a nice question!! i still have videos of it somewhere, but before i decided to be an artist full-time, i worked for my father as an errant book salesperson. it was for a short time and it ended with something worse than a car crash, but of all the things i did then, the one i cherish most was the ferry ride i would often take between our hometown and this other, somehow even smaller city lmao- the GPS never works in these places. it was mostly up to road signs and my father's batshit insane memory of the paths, ngl.
Oh, glad to hear someone else's parent knew batshit crazy directions! Mom's instructions are always right but BOY do they sometimes make me feel like I'm an extra in a horror movie whose horrible death is foreshadowed by missing person posters in the background.
Really good analysis. Some of the analyses about Local58 overcomplicate the story and speculate too much, but you did a good job of trying to keep it grounded (as much as you can with a story about an eldritch moon god).
1:06:55 it’s crazy, I’m an hour or so drive from mammoth cave.
Growing up I heard a bunch of stories about that place and the experiments and productions that went on down there, how famous it was.
