I think that the time spent is what makes these great. You taking time helps the editing the voice work and writing. I am grateful that you will make stuff like this in the future.
Man this surreal horror mixed with minecraft works so well. The childhood comfort and nostalgia from the game contrasts so well with the ominous horror aspects. I can’t wait for your summer video!
Bro you manage to make even the simplest scenes scary as shit. If you’re going to reach that New Years resolution with uploading more, I’ll be sure to watch those as well
I am finding an endless amount of humor out of a RU-vid channel about psychological horror in Minecraft being called "Garfilled" really hope this becomes a full blown series cause this... You've got an entirely new kind of unique that needs to be nurtured.
I always find it amazing when someone can take an unusual media and bend it to their will. Like that backrooms video before this one, (which is a lovely parody of the 100 days concept) the way it starts so regularly, but then the feelings of terror slowly set in. The Garfilled in the mine in the real server 2, then seeing you stand the dog, the realization sets in entirely. Then the burying of that server, only to be thrown back into something worse- gives me chills and thrills. Bravo, my feline friend. Keep up the good work.
This channel is so underrated. Ever since I was 5 years old I was always fascinated about creepy stuff in non-horror games (Minecraft, GMod etc), so I really enjoy these videos, it also gives me ARG vibes for some reason. Keep up the good work bro.
This right here is how you do horror, not just minecraft horror but just horror in general. Starting off completely normal with subtle hints to something darker, and then going into full horror. The editing is so good.
Theory: We don't have much to go off of but we can tell part of what's happening here. As we can see in the backrooms video, it feels as he never left, ominous vibes and we have some proof as to why. 1. The thumbnail has the same shadowy figure, except this time with red eyes and a smile. 2. The backrooms has city like levels for example level 11 this could all just be another level that he managed to find in the endless backrooms. 3. There are signs everywhere saying "garfilled was here" which leads me to believe after looping through levels forever (like level 3 in his backrooms video) he started making signs saying that he was there but he doesn't seem to remember, he goes insane and starts placing signs everywhere and being someone that watches backrooms videos, going insane is common, maybe it's all in his head. Some unsolved questions that I don't really know how to answer yet is how did he find more levels? What did he do that is his fault and what the hell is that garfilled clone doing in the creepy area, maybe getting revenge for what garfilled did? I don't know. So basically there is a chance he is stuck in the backrooms getting karma for what he did, we just don't know what. (I don't have Twitter so if he said something about the lore or if there is none please tell me) (I am actually curious so if you have anything to tell me that could either debunk some stuff that I said or some more information you found please tell me, thanks)
If you see the manhunt in back rooms and then one of the graves in this video a grave says Debunky who later dies in the manhunt video which brings a lot more theories to the table.
6:19 This looks pretty cool, I've always liked the way that horror/gothic styled minecraft areas look, I pretty much grew up on minecraft horror maps so it may partially be a nostalgia thing.
Stop- the quality on this video nAWWW , your incredibly creative and have so much talent! Able to take something as simple as just looking into forgotten minecraft servers and turning it into horror? that's so unique good job dude, I hope you continue to make content and make more amazing videos like these. Also I think I'm noticing a pattern with the redacted thing g̶a̶r̶f̶i̶l̶l̶e̶d̶ ̶l̶o̶r̶e̶?̶ 🤔
At 3:14 it has a joined the game message. But he's already in the game, in Minecraft you can't see your own left the game message;) This corresponds with the garfilled "clone" we see later.
I'm not sure if there is suppose to be a story or if its just surreal horror stuff, but either way I love it. Anyways, I think Garfilled is some sort of physical reincarnation of a real life variant who died or something? It would explain that in the servers its 'Garfilled WAS here' while in the white void, which could represent heaven/hell/oblivion the sign says 'Garfilled IS here'. The fact that Garfilled is on a grave in the cemetery supports this. It would also explain why Garfilled apparently owned the dog and created that house on Server 2, and why everyone missed him. I'm not very good at deciphering videos like these but I figured I'd give it a shot? Idk
Good theory, but there's still multiple missing plot points, like who is the other Garfilled? Why are the signs telling him "it's all your fault"? So many mysteries, yet no answers. Another thing is the backroom video is connected to this video too, so that's another mystery.
I don't know what it is about stuff like this, but I absolutely LOVE these types of things where they have a normal-looking minecraft video with some ARG or hidden story behind it, like the backrooms video or the 15 ways to improve your minecraft world.
Honestly I think the large amount of signs with “Garfield was here” signifys how many dead servers hes nostalgic with and played, the slow realization of just how many places you loved to be in only for them to no longer be active hurts, a piece of us never really leaves them, especially due to the nostalgia of them
I was surprised when I saw you upload a new video and I loved it! The editing is outstanding and unique! At first, I thought that this is a normal video (The title really looks like a generic youtube title) and the chilling story caught me off-guard! Again, love your content and hope your channel develops further!
IKR i was expecting just like He researched servers that havnt been played on in years and saw what people used to like to build not... whatever TF this is. Dont get me wrong Its interesting first video from this guy ive seen but I just... Wasnt expecting a horror movie I came looking for nostalgia Not jumpscares :P
I love exploring old Minecraft servers, abandoned or not, its just interesting to explore places that have been built many years ago, some servers have buildings that are 10-11 years old and are from the early Alpha/Beta versions of Minecraft. Its just nostalgic to see these old things built by players many years ago and imagining how much fun these people probably had when building them. Its almost like looking at nostalgic old photos/videos. Minecraft servers can become almost like historical documents of what players created over the years.
Man it’s insane how genius your videos are, these psychological horror style videos you’re making are so entertaining. I can’t wait to see the next one!
heres my obligatory cameo timestamp comment YO THATS MY NAME - 6:39 i made that sign on the right woah - 7:59 my private smp house smile - 8:00 my live smp house wowowo!!! - 8:05 anyways im super proud of you garfilled :) amazing video as always :)
I don’t think I’ve seen such amazing psychological horror done this well, ever before in Minecraft! Keep up the INCREDIBLE work! Consider me an official fan!
that giant "I'm so f***g alone" sign on server one was so sad. You can tell it was made by the last member who was still hanging around making things pretty only for nobody so see it...
I just noticed even more small details returning to watch this. At 5:24 some items are named "its all your fault" and at a super precise time of 5:29 the sword is named something with Garfilled in it.
Ever since I was the "Surviving the Backroom" vids, I knew that your channel was the perfect channel that I need to comfort myself. Sinister vibe, plot twist and etc. I love all ofthem. This video remind me of a amnesia. When you doing something again and again even tho you did it x100 times already but you didn't even realized
Yooooo, glad to see another video dude! The first one was a real banger, glad to see it wasn't just a one-and-done! Old, abandoned servers are always so unique and interesting, there's no two alike unless they were literally copied. Each one has its own story to tell, forgotten memories of those who used to own them on display for anyone who goes looking. As someone who's abandoned at least a few servers after friendships fell through, it's nice to see someone take that idea and turn it into something truly creepy. (Also, I am not proud of myself for getting jumpscared by a Minecraft avatar of Garfield...)
I don't know if anyone else noticed but at 5:24 when Garfilled is looking through the chests, they hover over the dark oak wood and its renamed "its all your fault". In the second chest, he hovers over the sword for a single frame, and it is renamed "garfilled was here". ps: idk if anyone else has pointed this out first, i just thought i would add this here
honestly your videos are incredible. the horror elements of this was just as incredible as last time, with a clear understanding of the human reaction and the psychological ways to play with the engine of minecraft. i will say some of the horror elements felt a little too dragged on, like the paper and the glitching effects, and the hallway scene felt less intense because the viewer had a lot of time to digest it and made it feel less creepy (which i think you nailed in your last vid). either way amazing stuff
I actually love that mine hallway scene! It reminds of one of the local movies I watched as a kid. It's not horror but a dramatic movie. Apparently a ghostly apparition appeared on one of the scenes. In the end of the movie, they played the scene where the ghost showed up again with no context, then again, zooming into the ghost. No sound, no anything. It left us to process what's happening in the silence of our own minds which is so freaky
Not only is it all visually terrifying, the story is clearly super thought out ! The execution is truly amazing and the work put into this is seen so clearly with how beautifully it all goes together, i miss minecraft in the good old days when there was tons of horror, and this brings it up, but just so much better, i never thought I’d get to see more horror minecraft content, especially now, I’ve always found the simplicity of minecraft to be good for horror making, like with PS2 type styled horror games that are getting really popular now, so wow did this intrigue me :)
This video is too good! Your editing has improved so much and if I’d seen your video without ever seeing your channel I would’ve guessed you had atleast 300k+ subs Looking forward to more consistent content!
I really love these horror videos of Minecraft. Minecraft can be such an eerie game sometimes, so this is great. Really hope more of your videos end up doing something unique with the idea of Minecraft horror each time.
Wow this was really good. As someone who is currently playing through an smp with close friends, seeing all those worlds and imagining all the good memories that must have come with it hit me right in the feels. Yesterday we took a trek back to our original spawn, and it was feeling insanely nostalgic, so me watching this the literal day after just brought all those emotions back. This is fantastically well done and I can't wait to see what you make next! Keep up the awesome work!
with all the info we've got from the redacted smp this video is now kinda sad seeing all the people he accidently ended up killing being the harbringer.
Not gonna lie. I thought this was at the beginning a scary story-like video. But now it is even creepier, knowing that everything is linked, but distorted
Exploring abandoned servers is like reading a book no matter how many pages you turn there will always be a new chapter or area to explore every block and item has a story behind it
What i think happend: Garfilled was a real person, and thats why he had a house in server 2 and the signs say Garfilled WAS here. But then, he died in some sort of accident, as on the graves it says "gartilled is here" which explains the "its all your fault its all your fault". He then visits abandoned servers, but as a ghost dosent remeber his past, which is why he dosent understand why he had a house in server 2. The clone of Garfilled which i presume is a sort of grim reaper ready to send him to heaven/ paradise/ whatever he goes to in the end. However, The soul of Garfilled understands who this clone is, as in the VERY last vrame wheee he is in server one, wierd text says "g...... has joined the game" The G i presume is the clone, and as garfilled see this, he immediately leaves the server. Also, this MAY be connected to his new video, where by going into the backrooms he kills 3 of his friends and later maybe dies mysteriously? This would explain the "its all your fault" as i previously mentioned becuase in some graves it says daytra is here, who is garfilled's friend. This was stupid and badly done, this is bamburfix, signing off.
Awesome man, this is the quality content i subscribbed for, my only gripe is that you should upload more then once per year. The backrooms/surreal horror/liminial space stuff is just as creepy as always.
A playback error occurred for me right after the glitching during the "What could go wrong?" started. I thought it was part of the video at first, haha
Funny things i found while watching the video: 3:15 for a brief moment in the chat you can see the message ‘Garfilled joined the game’ 4:08 The person at the end of the tunnel is Garfilled himself 4:18 Normally when you try to interact with a dog that isn’t yours, it will start attacking you but in this case the dog doesn’t and instead of being hostile it works just as if Garfilled was the original owner of the dog 4:48 Most people saw this but the name of the paper is ‘we miss you garfilled’ 5:05 it says SERVER 2 instead of SERVER 3 and in the section of the video it appears as ‘Server 2?’ Notice the question mark? Because i sure did 5:24 The name of the Dark Oak Planks is changed and it says ‘its all your fault’ you might have missed it 5:29 The name of the Diamond Sword is changed and it says ‘garfilled was here’ and he just immediately clicks out of the chest 5:39 he does point this out, in multiple places it says ‘garfilled was here’ its basically saying that he was already there And there are probably a lot more but I’m too tired to point them out! 😅
I used to play a lot on a server called msc, it was a city roleplay server with quite some people on it, after I heard it was being shut down and a world map was being released, I of course downloaded it too keep a piece of memory. It’s so unsettling and sad being in a world completely alone knowing it used to be a place where a lot of people could share their creativity and just goof around.
Theory for the second server - Garfilled was in that server a very long time ago he just suddenly stopped playing on that server. After a while someone put those signs in his "base" then he finds that server possibly relating to a traumatic event in his life,
On the real though, liminal spaces are scary. You don't even have to have any activity from human beings while playing Minecraft for it to feel liminal at certain points.
This video is one of my favorite videos of all time, it inspired me to create my own videos (private). It would be great to see another video more focused on nostalgia like this video because it is very relatable, thanks for this amazing video
