Secondary plot twist: You slowly became the cryptid after searching for them for so long Notice how the songs become more cryptid-y? Starts off simple enough, but slowly turns into songs that speak of *being* animals (Pelicans We and Tardigrade Song), then a rather dark song about being vivisected and getting a halo. This leads me to believe that we have *become* a cryptid. But that's just a theory a -game- cryptidcore playlist theory! :D
Honestly this playlist is THE vibe. I've always thought Cosmo Sheldrake has big cryptid energy, so many of his songs make me feel like a wild entity unknown to science
You had always loved the forest. Since you were young, when voices grew loud and tiring you had gone on a journey. A quest to find who knows what inside the woods. A stream or a new bug beneath a rock was always enough. But it wasn't really. When the stars were out, when you didn't quite know which tree was which, a feeling stirred. Wonder, curiosity. The idea that perhaps there was something more out there, standing there as an announcement that the world held more magic and meaning than you could imagine. One day, after a particularly teary-eyed argument, you fled to your usual spot. The fog was thick, and clung to your skin in a slight clammy whisper. A leaf or two drifted downwards, catching on bug-ladded spider webs. All of this was familiar. You froze. Something in the bark of one of the trees seemed strange. The waving lines of darker edges seemed to invite the eyes with uniform shapes. You followed them as they arced and curved down the length of the trunk. All at once it clicked. Letters. Words. "We have so much to show you." Your breath had barely caught when the too-light footstep came from behind you.
The first thing she noticed was the feeling of eyes watching her-a feeling she deemed impossible to ignore in the dense forest. The girl turned to discover she was surrounded by strange, shadowy creatures with glowing eyes peeking out from behind the trees, staring her down in...curiosity? Fear? Disdain? It was hard to tell. "Hello?" the girl greeted after a few moments of concerned silence. She got no immediate response, but she did realize that the creatures may have been eyeing the gun at her hip. "Oh, I don't plan on hurting anyone," she assured the creatures, uncertain if they even understood her, "unless...I'm forced to..." A few of the creatures then began to creep towards the girl and spent a few minutes investigating her. None of them acted hostile per se, but they didn't appear to be very friendly either. After those few minutes, one of the creatures wrote a message in the dirt, which read: "Come with us. We want to show you something."
THIS IS GOOD I WANNA KNOW WHAT HAPPENS NEXT!! are you planning on writing a fic or smth? anyways love the atmosphere and your choice of words, it really feels like you're diving into the story lots of inspiration 😉
I'm writing a Creepypasta fanfiction (woah Creepypasta in 2022?) about Cryptid Hunters who went out looking for the Operator, only to become Proxies at some point. Inspiration was hard. This playlist really helped me out, thank you!
THIS DOESNT RELATE TO THE ACTUAL PLAYLIST BUT OMG ITS BEEN FOREVER SINCE I HEARD SHUT EYE OMGGG, MY CHILDHOOD WAS THE SHUT EYE ANIMATIC WITH THE ORANGE DOG, ANYWAYS I LOVE THIS PLAYLIST BUT OMGG
I have been struggling to find a playlist that matches the vibe to the current part of a fanfic I am writing. I saw the notification that you made a new playlist and just saved it for later. Just came on now and realized it matches a vibe I’ve been looking for, I love this playlist so much, thank you!!! You always make such great povs :D
Sometimes I forget my teeth are normal and not sharp and frightening all across the front. Sometimes, when I stretch, I feel new or alternate limbs stretching with me. Sometimes, as I lay in bed, trying to sleep, I feel the memories of piloting a body I've never known, in a different world. I don't know if it's just my imagination, but the points from which it feels like something's ng is watching me, even when alone, they have forms, and I can see them in my head. I can feel the colors of their clothes, and I can sense how they feel. But I can't tell when people are watching me. I've tested it and tried so many times. I know exactly what you mean.
Listen to his other songs! They all give these cool exploring forest vibes :D I recommend Come along and The moss (Run rings right wrongs is my fav aaa)
You can look at his other songs for a mysterious and exploring a forest vibe. It's like you remembering a song someone has sang to you while exploring a forest I guess?
I'm so used to hearing the Breezeblocks/Take a Slice mashup, I got confused when the song played normally XD OH MY GODS PELICANS WE BY COSMO SHELDRAKE YOU ARE MY FAVORITE PERSON semi-related joke: My father says all religions are cults. He is wrong. A religion is a group of ten or more people, usually worshiping some sort of entity. A cult is Pelicans We by Cosmo Sheldrake. edit: this is legit like the only playlist where I have enjoyed every song 🤯 Didn't skip a single one
first playlist ive ever listen to where theres zero bad/ out of place song. it IS really the perfect cryptid playlist and im extremely impressed, every songs fit the vibe so much its unbelivable
I wrote a little story to this (sorry for my grammar) : As you walk through the forest light rain starts and you suddenly feel sleepy so you try to find where you came from to go back home but as you are walking you see a moss bed near a big tree and decide to go over to it as the rain starts pouring. When you touch the moss you realize its soft and dry a bit confused as why the moss is dry when its pouring rain you decide to lay down and take a little nap to try to wait for the rain to pass. As you drift to sleep the rain starts pouring extremely hard and you start hearing thunder usually thunder scares you but this time as you try to cover your ears you realize you can't move. After a hour of being in a sleep-like state you are finally able to open your eyes, but when you open them you see a path of mushrooms that weren't there before so you slowly stand up and start following the path. After a while of following the path you decide to look around and you realize its already dark and you look around and see eyes staring at you from behind the trees. "Hello?" You say as you walk a bit closer to the tree leaving the mushroom path suddenly the eyes disappear and as you pull out your phone to try to film the eyes you realize your phone is out of battery and that its 2:55 AM so you quickly and panicky start running down the mushroom path trying to get out of the forest. As you run you get extremely sleepy again but this time you keep running, when you finally get to the path that leads to your house you start seeing eyes staring at you from everywhere, this time instead of pulling out your phone you keep running when suddenly something comes out of the bushes and bites your hand. You scream in pain and fall to the ground as you look up. you see a wolf-like creature with moth wings and glowing blue eyes. But before you can process what happened your mom comes running out of the house and before you could even blink the wolf was gone "Are you okay sweetie?!?" Your mom yells as she sits down next to you and looks at your arm, suddenly your vision goes dark. When you wake up you are at home in bed with bandages wrapped around your arm, and some tea on the nightstand. (if you guys want me to write more of this story please comment because rn I'm too tired to continue writing) :D
This is really cool! I read it too my mom, hope you don't mind, and she liked it too! If you feel like it you should write more! I wouldn't mind writing some if you want me too, tho our styles are different.
I totally forgot about this comment sorry, I’ve been pretty busy with school and with the holidays if anyone wants to continue the story feel free to I’m probably not going to continue it sadly
oh this playlist goes crazy, i usually dont listen to yt playlists cuz im pretty picky when it comes to listening to a playlist somebody else makes but this is a banger lmao
Not even joking, the book I'm writing while listening to such playlist as well as this, it actually about rebirthing of a creature with immense powers that endangered years ago.... kinda partially
Came to find out the sound of cryptidcore but only discovered I have been listening to it all this time withouth really thinking of it as anything-core😭😭😭😭 So ofc I love this video)))
Look but never touch, See but never feel, Watch but never speak, Observe them from across the clearing, Don't come closer, They are afraid, Look but never touch, See but never feel, Watch but never speak. Thank you for reading. :)
I really enjoyed this playlist. I had a bunch of songs that most other playlists don't have. I kinda got used to hearing the same songs over and over again. So it was refreshing to hear new songs whilst having classics like glass animal's mamma's gun and breezeblocks. Those will forever be classics to me. Thx, for making this wonderful playlist.
Imma say it, I love hiding in the forest and letting my hair get tangled and braiding leavs into it. I love running barefoot in old pine needles and climbing trees and hopping over walls. It's the best feeling of freedom!
I've listened to a bunch of playlists on youtube but this is the only one I listen to over and over again for weeks. Would you consider creating this playlist on spotify?
I absolutely love that Cosmo and shut eye are here, but it’s a crime not to have put Murders by miracle musical. It literally fits it perfectly, woods and all
Currently writing smth set deep in Appalachia and this playlist is a lot more listenable than southern gothic country music playlists (I tried I swear)
You can believe me or not, this is a curse I bare, I see things from places no human is supposed to, I can hear their speech nearly as well as my own, I’ve spoken to entities that only keep me alive simply because I’m interesting to them, wether their ghost, cryptids I’m not sure what else, I wasn’t born with a list of creatures I can sense, I only know they speak back. I dream of things that will happen and I have no power of changing them unless they were meant to, I’ve tried to warn people but it happens anyways, maybe a few moments later but other than that theirs no hope. I have prophecies about people’s futures and even when I beg them to understand it won’t work. I’m not saying this for the fact it’s a neat party trick, I am simply tired of being alone and want to know if there’s any one else who knows this curse. Please understand don’t go looking for these creatures they won’t accept you as they have me, they see me as something they don’t see often, they’ll see you as trespassers. This is exhausting. I’m so tired I just want to sleep without the promise of dreams scalding into my memories.
I don’t think I should be listening to this considering that after I restarted the playlist I got anxious and started habitually hitting myself in some bizarre attempt to calm down
Can someone explain what Cryptidcore is to me? This is the first time I’ve ever even heard or seen anything about it, if someone could explain that’d be great- :)
Cryptids are creatures that cryptozoologists believe may exist somewhere in the wild, but are not believed to exist by mainstream science. Cryptozoology is a pseudoscience, which primarily looks at anecdotal stories, and other claims rejected by the scientific community. Cryptidcore is an aesthetic based on the idea of hunting and researching cryptids and the cryptids themselves.
OK so for whoever is wondering who the werewolf in 6:29 is, his name is Paul Lahote from twilight saga => twilight wolves pack every wolf in the pack has beautiful coat color really realistic idk why most people don't like them ik the twilight saga plot was weird etc.. But cmon the werewolves are the most beautiful werewolves of all I literally mean it I'm still obsessed with them I'm not gonna argue with anyone I'm just saying my opinion Anyways I might do a pov of male or female reader turning into this type of werewolf but I still don't know if I should do 1 with the reader getting bitten by such creature and turning or being already one like starting the pov from a month after the transformation 😅
