Regarding the Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark chat from a few pages ago:

You guys are all crazy if you don't think that "Is Something Wrong?" is the best story/illustration in the series.

^ Oh man, I forgot about that video. And yeah, the ABCs of Death definitely vary in quality.

i lived in southeast ohio for a couple years. every night for a couple months a giant wolf spider would walk out into the middle of the carpet and stare at me for awhile i watched tv. we were pretty good buds

Back when I lived in a basement suite, wolf spiders would sometimes crawl over my feet while I was sitting at my desk.
The place had a fly problem. I am pretty sure the upstairs neighbours kept raw meat on the floor because I would regularly see maggots drop out of the ceiling vents on to my carpet.
If it hadn't been for those spiders, I'm positive the bug situation could have been much worse.

Zdzislaw Beksinski's art makes way more sense now. Still freaky as poo poo, and I had no idea he also did photography.

That real sleep one really fucks with my head if I follow the instructions, and he explains why.

The effect is a lot more apparent when the faces are familiar and it's a little slower:

This is a very long video that uses experimental music to stimulate the descent into dementia. The music represents memories, and how they become utterly, irreparably tangled and confused as the mind loses it's grasp on reality. Maybe it's just me, but I find that idea terrifying. If you want the full effect, start from the beginning. Stage 4, a little over 2 hours in, is where it really gets hosed up.

This is fantastic.

quote:

STAGE 1 : 00:00:00
Here we experience the first signs of memory loss. This stage is most like a beautiful daydream.
The glory of old age and recollection. The last of the great days.

STAGE 2 : 00:41:22
The second stage is the self realisation and awareness that something is wrong with a refusal to accept that. More effort is made to remember so memories can be more long form with a little more deterioration in quality. The overall personal mood is generally lower than the first stage and at a point before confusion starts setting in.

STAGE 3 : 01:23:17
Here we are presented with some of the last coherent memories before confusion fully rolls in and the grey mists form and fade away. Finest moments have been remembered, the musical flow in places is more confused and tangled. As we progress some singular memories become more disturbed, isolated, broken and distant. These are the last embers of awareness before we enter the post awareness stages.

STAGE 4 : 02:08:53
Post-Awareness Stage 4 is where serenity and the ability to recall singular memories gives way to confusions and horror. It's the beginning of an eventual process where all memories begin to become more fluid through entanglements, repetition and rupture.

STAGE 5 : 03:36:12
Post-Awareness Stage 5 confusions and horror. More extreme entanglements, repetition and rupture can give way to calmer moments. The unfamiliar may sound and feel familiar.
Time is often spent only in the moment leading to isolation.

STAGE 6 : 05:04:32
Post-Awareness Stage 6 is without description.
