This horror game broke my heart.. | Bad Parenting 

I just realized that the poor child went through this and died on his birthday, what happened is already horrible but it makes it even worse...

As a police officer, things like this happen more often than most people realize. Kids don't always die, but many live in such horrible places with horrible people. I wish there was more we could do about it. But I suppose being the best parents we can be can change the way our kids have to live.

Poor Ron died on his birthday by his own father that he still loved until the end, poor sweet baby😭the fact that real kids out there probably went through the same thing makes this even more sad and unsettling. Every kids deserve good parents, but not every parents deserve good kid

The ending though. It showed how the other kids died.

No way a pixel game made me so emotional. Crazy plot

The ending is so heartbreaking, seeing all the kids again and realizing those are the ways they were k!lled… 😮‍💨

32:52 this made me bawl my eyes out, I know it’s a game but it hits too close to home

26:51 this part really hit me. Especially with this view of a clueless child viewing what happened. Its the muisc and the child wailing sound depicting pain and how small and helplsss he looks as compared to a big monster.

A few weeks ago I watched this gameplay by another you-tuber (is that the correct title?) I didn't finish because he was boring and disengaged, didn't read aloud the text, and had fairly meh ethusiam. Your style of dialogue is what keeps me here. I am five minutes in and plan to stay. You aren't boring :D

Cant believe Hollow didn't mention how in the end its showing how the other kids were hidden. Burnt in a fire, buried under ground, and the one baby in the truck.

So the motel card she dropped in the ending, that was actually the “spell” card that could be used to defeat the “Red Faced Man” right?

Poor baby... A child's love is like nothing else. Still loving his father even after treating him horrificly. Edit: now that I've finished it. Oh my GOSH!!!! This got me...

This is so unsettling.. it’s actually good

holy smokes. that was a very deep and well thought out game. gave me goosebumps and made me tear up. poor kid, a child’s love is unconditional.

I listen to these while cooking and cleaning when my anxiety is high. I just finished another video and you post again. Thank you friend, you help so many people in so many ways! !! 🖤

Hollows comment section is truly a rare feat where most of us get along

This really brought tears to my eyes there are kids out there who went through this it's sad

I’m officially sad 😢😢😢and it’s been 24hrs couldn’t get this out my head . Brought so many memories of my childhood lucky enough to get away.

I have also been through situations like this ... As a child. I have had my own kids and gotten married and history repeats itself as in I was the mother in this game. My kids safety is my 100% priority I wouldn't dare let them live how I lived. I broke the trauma I won't let them be in a toxic household again. Even if it means just me and them forever. This game made me very emotional really hit home. I wish the world was a better place for kids to grow up in.

The good image you have created as a father and as a video game player on us is incredible, thats how the comment section of your videos is so wholeseome we love talking with you seeing your videos make us feel calm better goes away the stress and depression, bringing more of it . This game just was so emotional it was good sad for the child . Thank You Hollow Stay Safe ❤

This game bringing out your emotions just shows you’re a solid person and especially a solid dad. This one hit a nerve but thank you for playing. You’re awesome hollow

Burst out of tears at the very end where there are other 3 kids in their own spot telling us how they were killed

This might be the most emotional and connected I've felt to a video/game in my lifetime. Thank you so much for this experience, incredible game

Storytelling is crazy in this game

idk if anyone caught this but at 4:47 when mr redface is coming in the room, it shows the way the dad also came in and put the son in the closet.. truly the saddest game..

I just knew the boy was schizophrenic, idk, but it was a gut feeling since the start because of how weird things were, and the pill factor.

Lost my daughter and grandson to violence. And the coward turned the gun on himself. Terribly sad game. 😢😢😢

The creator was cooking.

I hear you...hollow. When you talk about things happening in your childhood ... My inner child sends hugs to everyone's inner child after watching this.

That’s the saddest game of all time I ever seen😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

No way a pixel game made me well up and feel emotional, I guess it's because the reality of things like this happen and the world is a very sad , horrible place sometimes, thank hollow for playing this opening many more people's eyes

Hollow, looking at how this game affects you and you yourself have similar experiences during childhood. I just wanna say we all understand how you wouldn’t want any of those things happening to your kids and that made you an amazing father and person and you have changed so many lives by making these videos for us. Keep being you Hollow. We’ll never stop supporting you! Amazing gameplay and amazing game as always. All love❤

Bro my soul left my body 10:06 13:40 15:31 it's the most scared I've been 17:02

Gets home late from the pub... Hollow has just uploaded. Let's do this!!

This hit me in a different way I’m a dad myself and watching something like this was hard to watch. I’m greatfull everyday that I have my own family

Very deep. I spoke up on human trafficking and many tried to stop me. It was being done by teachers and police officers.

This is actually really scary but realistic at the same time

For every story we hear about in the news about bad parents, there is literally thousands if not more that go on unreported. This world is seriously F’d up.

If your having a bad day just watch 1 video of hollow and ur going to be the happiest u will ever be ❤

I think I cried the most seeing all of the babies and realizing how they all died

game gives coraline vibes but on steroids

Love these games! You're my favorite RU-vidr for playing these old disturbing games with meaningful story's!!

Thank you hollow for the horror game keep them coming man :)

Sorry for all the things u have gone through during childhood hallow😢and thanks for making contents for us❤

4 Horror Games in a row…. Awesome❤

i worked whit neglected childreen and teenagers and this shit just broke my heart. Hope this spread awarnes about this topic, when i was a kid i i've been trought rough times and the consequences stil remains till this day. I hope one day i can have kids and be better to them.

This was wild. This was just as crazy as the girl locked in the basement.

Dont tell me, the ending is the kids with their own problem/ending closet, car, fire, bury ?! :"

The story was sad but the way the game connected it. Just phenomenal!

I just noticed at the end of the game that all the kids that died were placed in places where the father left them after they killed them.

This game reminded me of the video 'Opal' by Jack Stauber. Dark stuff, and it's also quite the emotional flashback on my past about my father. I hate that you went through that Hollow :( If there's any adults here whom are struggling with childhood based CPTSD, Patrick Teahan has a wonderful channel that goes into depth with coping mechanisms. There is ALWAYS a good reason to never give up!

these indie game devs really have the ability to trigger those emotions in us.

I dont often comment, this...hurts Thank you for playing, and heal Hollow, we saw how you were fighting your own memories here! You are different! better! Safer!

As a child I was abused and was an orphan. In a way this game is kind of what it’s all like

This is the first game you’ve played that really got to me! This one and “Don’t Be Afraid”😭

When you realise the other kids suffered the same fate 😢😢😢 this had such a powerful message

Oh! The Boswell Sisters at the beginning ❤

I almost cried man. This is so deep. 😢

This was very sad indeed, but I love your gameplay though! Greetings from Holland.

Hollow in this game made me feel how terrifying the life inside a house could be I had a lot of bad memories too, but... this game, bro, I ran out of words

I appreciate you sharing your experiences with domestic violence. This too certainly was hitting different strings for me as well watching it through. Always love watching your content!

This game made me cry a lot, i really can't help it.

so what I gathered so far it is about kids being abused by his alcoholic dad and this is so sad. There are people who have their kids taken for smoking one joint at night then theres this 😫

Hollow posts horror game = good day 💯 this game's graphic is nothing new but the story, the plot twist, how deep it goes and reveals everything....are just impressive and sad at the same time:(

This game is really good. Hits you really hard. It's so sad that these horrors really exist.

Thank you Hollow for the top tier content!

I've been watching ur videos about a year i never got to much emotional but this game makes me,,like it's so sad and harsh real story.

Feels like this is gonna be Foodoo dolls, eventually Son is gonna ended up having versions of his dad and mom doll in which he gonna do something with the dolls ended up killing both his parents….maybe? 😮

Powerful message😮😢😢😢😢. ❤❤❤ thanks, Hollow, such a sincere playthrough

Lovin these uploads Hollow ❤

This game is reality for individuals 😢 Hollow your Authentic like Always

It's the game with the most horrific plot I've ever seen and with scenes so brutal and violent towards a child that it leaves him disfigured from how many he took. the ending from when his mother finds him onwards is very sad.

Red face is definitely seeing RED.

Those are probably the kids that died from their parents hands also .

man this was a tough one. im sorry for what you had to endure as a child hollow. been watching you for five years now. ❤from Bangladesh

That was……..DEEP! 😱 stories always beat Gfx 👌🏼

My jaw dropped when the twist happened, that the son was actually the doll and he is dead 😮

I guess this game really is the definition of HORROR 😢

Holy FUCK. This just gave me chills and filled with tears. As someone who used to work in foster care and deal with kids coming from traumatic situations, this hit deep.

That’s the reason the doll’s neck was crooked in the beginning😢

When Ron noticed the neck was loose…. Then we find out why… Good game but brutal reality check…

I just can't believe what i have seen. These indi games present us more realistic things than those AAA games. It's emotional down here

As a mother who just last week gave birth to my dead 39 week old son this was indeed powerful.. Makes me think of all the children who should be loved and are abused instead.. Breaking my heart.

This is great, The perfect game for me. A horror game about bad parenting. My parents never understand me, it's like they never went through a phase of being my age, it sucks. Thanks hollow, you made my day with this game.

Omggg the last clip is where each of the kids died 🫢🫢🫢

This is insane 😢the game is unique

Do I, have I, will I, ever play horror games. 100% no. Do I, have I, will I, watch every time hollow puts one out because he's the goat? 1000% YES

The game design all around is creepy as hell. As far as the story goes its definitely a different type of "horror" game. Well, bc as i type this comment , this type of abuse could be happening now... at this very moment. many times its kept in the shadows ..and when or if we do notice somethings wrong, it could be too late and end up the same fate as this storyline . Death.

him beating his wife don't make you cry?, but the son part seems to make you cry a lot lol

It's messed up that this actually happens.

This reminds me of that weird game Petscop that was famous on the internet a few years ago

Dude I lost my fucking breath when you zoomed in on the dad's face

Hollow my dude, every single jumpscare of that game gave me chills...

Such a powerful and meaningful horror game regarding today's modern day reality about people

Dude! How did you play that without bursting into tears! This game is messed up.

Art style gives me Coaraline vibes!

Is anyone watching on TV, and hollow is quiet this time? Or more quiet than normal?

Woww, so in the end he joined the other neglected and brutally murdered kids in a place afterlife. This really hits home for me and probably many others who dealt with bad parents...

Finally after weeks, Hollow plays a horror game again.🎉

As a person whom had a tough childhood me and my brother we suffered a lot, he specially because i was the kid whom "born different" but we suffered physically and mentally more him young dad always stressed and didnt want to play with us so much. My mom told me when I was a baby i was having colics which is a normal things to have I was crying a lot so he stands up, gets freaky and he hits me very hard... well... cant blame him he had the same treat when he was a kid by my grandma and I dont know if I'm going to be a good dad. I mentally have problems you guys think im crazy but I see things, I see people whom doesnt exist and I have sleep paralysis which for me is very tough! Nowadays he is a better dad now sometimes he still has his anger and stressful episodes but its not the same. Im glad things are great now and this was one of the toughest and sad games I've ever seen. Thanks guys and have a nice Evening
