Roses are red I am ded the Alien has come for me and will for u too

I think the scariest concept would be that yes, we are alone in the universe… but there used to be more. The humanity is the last civilization, and all around us in the cosmos are the husks and graves of alien civilizations. We are babies born from the dead corpse of the universe, left to fend for ourselves, without anyone else to find except the fragmented memories of what once was others. Earth is the oasis in the desert universe… and whatever happed to the other civilizations to make them all die out will eventually come for us. Like some sort of rapture that we weren’t there to experience. That is the alien “theory” (more like horror concept) that freaks me out the most. Sci-fi always depicts aliens as being a lot like us. Even if they look very different, there are a lot of similarities that aren’t apparent on the surface: culture, intelligence, beliefs, desires. But in a vast universe where we are the only species that has all that? We are truly alone in the void, made to venture down the dark hallway without friends by our side.

It seems that not only is AZ-001 (or at least the Alpha chunk) and the contagion intelligent, but that it communicates with those it infects, judging by the guy we see in the hazmat suit as he's about to melt begging, "Don't do this to me." Like he was suddenly aware of exactly what was going to happen to him and pleading for it not to. Maybe that's a bit of a stretch, a lot of media shows people begging in their final moments regardless of what's killing them, but I feel like it could have a been a much more general statement like, "Don't kill me!" or "I don't want to die!" The fact that he seemed to be specifically asking the Alpha chunk, "Don't DO THIS to me." makes me feel like he knew what was going to happen because he touched the chunk. Anyway, really glad you touched on this series, I had no idea about it and I really hope the creator keeps working on it. I need to know more!

I wonder if the story depicted in the tapes takes place in a different universe from the one the people that found the tapes live in? Maybe somehow these tapes, and even entire rooms and buildings, were transported across dimensions, because to me it seems like the events in the tapes never happened in the world the viewer characters live in.

Doubt it, it's most likely something similar to one of the XK ends of a world scenario in SCP, where the world got reset back to the point at which it ended, after eradication of Alpha AZ-001

Got genuine whiplash hearing “Douglas county” and “Nebraska” bc that is where im from and our state is so often ignored and overlooked :0

I was born Nov. 7th, 1991, so hearing that description for "Call Now" says it was recorded sometime between Oct. 31st '91 and Jan. 1st '92 really got my attention.

Elder god arrives on earth threatening all humanity. Optimus prime: 🗿

18:13 *War of the world's the musical "red weed" starts playing*

My theory for the locations where the tapes were recovered is that they were all, at some point, field labs or simply shelters for an as-of-yet unknown character or characters whose story we will end up following. Likely a member or members of HOME who go to these places to investigate the situation, using the equipment from the technical college and vet office to learn more about the threat, then have to flee and hide in the home and the bunker. Maybe they realize at some point that HOME's actions are not as benevolent as they previously thought and break away, forming a new group with the new symbol derived from HOME's that is found on the bunker.

Ever notice how the HOME logo is an M and an A overlapping? Also, "001-002S" is very similar to how film scenes are labeled during filming.

This is like a combination of The Thing, and A Color Out of Space.

It’s cool seeing something take place in the area I live in. Also my mom worked for the newspaper office in Red Oak around the same time this takes place.

I was a bit surprised at how clearly certain things are shown, as a lot of analogue horror insists on obscuring most of the actual horror to let the viewer's mind fill it in in the most terrifyingly personal way it can. As a result I feared this would come across as too shallow and obvious. But they've done a great job of keeping other elements obscure and presenting it in a wonderfully chaotic fashion that really leaves you wondering what may or may not be real. Excellent work so far!

Looks like a neat series, wish the CG was higher quality but independent work obviously lacks the tools and manpower for polish so it really does look good considering. Great coverage, very well organized and engaging! Will say though that I can only hear Summoning Salt's speedrun docs with that music used during the conclusion haha

Love the ending music also being called Home. Nice touch to an already great video!

This was excellent! and it brings more attention to a criminally underrated analog horror series, so doubly excellent. I’d say your channel is also underrated tho….. it’s sad to see all the most popular series getting all the attention over and over again. my personal favorite Analog horror is Greylock and even tho it’s not as old, it’s still super underrated for how scary it is and its quality so keep bringing light to projects that deserve it! Well Done! 👏

​@@WobblesandBeanfrom what I gathered from the videos the ningen are a more evolved species of human and they can shapeshift/ undergo metamorphosis, they live in the arctic and have 3 stages. 1 beeing amoung us. 2 beeing the classic "whale" ningen. 3 beeing the rotting spinal cord and head of the previous stage (basically the apotheosis of the ningen) and they have otherworldly powers. Also the ningen can replace people, merge with objects and living organism like in the 3rd video and they can perform asexual reproduction and finally their origins are found on a cave painting (basically an ancient human who lives on a mountain finds a giant skeleton on the peak, gets bored and finds a whale in the water and gets envious of the whales abilitie to swim, later it shapeshifts into something and reunites with the whale, the whale runs away from fear and gets absorbed later they "wish to go beyond " fly into the sky and die on a peak of a mountain (could be the same mountain) causing a cycle to form. Also while the ningen do unspeakable things to humanity they think their helping.

As somebody who lives in the state of Oklahoma the first video description dragged me in and added a little extra for me personally

love yo shit man keep doin you

My favorite part about this entire series is how well connected everything is to the first video, making it feel like an anomaly itself. The price of the video matches the date that AZ-001 made contact, the phone number is the number to contact HOME, and even the abrupt cut off of the tornado has something to do with this.

The symbol next to the classified footage notice 15:42 looks like a ‘handmade’ sigil, like one from a Saturn square that you make for yourself

i like your music choices

Great video! Thanks for introducing this interesting series so well. I’m not sure if “mortifying” was the right word to describe what was going on in that video though. 🤔

we need an update on this!!!

I love tha fact that you used HOME's songs for the background lol

I see what you did at the end with the song “We are finally landing” by HOME It’s a amazing song to be honest

When the Outro music started playing at the end, I thought we were going to see a speedrun of Midwest Angelica start up.

Videos like this would make me very interested, i love ro have more knowledge about stuff, i may not understood because im just class 5. Even, its still interesting. New sub!

It might not be super popular because it just isn't active enough and also it's been nine months since the last video.

This sounds a lot like another pathogen i know, Inferi redivivus. But a very slow burn version of it. This is really a underrated analog horror channel.

one thing about these tapes is that mostly have been discovered within the area of nebraska, wich could either indicate the event didnt spread worldwide or only know theyre recovering from ground zero
