This is the first tape that mentions Arcade Acres. VHS cover said it was “Night of the Living Dead”, which would make it one of the few talkies in Meursault’s collection. The latter part of the second commercial seems corrupted- I think the owner tried to film over the original footage in a lot of these.
After these first few minutes, "Night of the Living Dead” plays in its entirety, so I felt like there was no need to upload the full tape. If you really want to watch it, it is public domain, so you can find it almost anywhere.
Check my blog for updates. PLEASE contact me if you have any information about this park. -Gregg.

And, of course, a huge thank you to the series that set the standard for analog horror, such as: Local58, The Walten Files, and The Mandela Catalogue.

“Arcade Acres Amusement Park” is an analog horror series about Gregg K, a 29-year-old film blogger on the search for an amusement park he went to in the 90’s, but he doesn’t remember much about it.

i think i went here once when i was really little...my mom said id just stare into the pools and not go in.
Do you remember anything else, like what happened to the park? Or maybe seeing the commercial
@@manglenightmare0311 i can't remember right now...all i know is...don't go in the pools
@@brianeagan8628 okay, well if you remember anything, you should probably message Frankie, i saw his email link on his blog
When I was a kid (no old jokes please! Lol) there was a show called Romper Room for little kids. The lady had a "magic mirror" you were supposed to stare into while she named every kid on the show. It was really freakin trippy so I wouldn't watch it. I think it was a government secret operation created specifically as a means to hypnotize all of us kids. That freakin mirror with it's swirly colors you're supposed to sit, gaze into the damn thing, and start drooling. LMAO!
"I see Suzie, and Jeffery, and Steven, and Luke.....and Coty, and Lauren, and Billy......and Lilly....I see you tooooooooo"..........fu🤬ing creepy as hell
Having the commercial cut to the abandoned pool, coupled with the sound of the man entering the water, quickly followed by a lifeguard whistle, paints a grim picture in a creative way!
Gotta say, despite the low budget.
I could sense heart and soul in this : )
I know this was just recently uploaded but this is severely underrated, keep up the great work!
Also loved the little bit of Night of the Living Dead there near the end LOL
Thank you so much!
I like how when stuff starts getting creepy the perfectly timed chills pool seems like it's in a dark abandoned room with IMAGES of the rest of the park plastered on the walls.
Gives it a really liminal feel and also sets up the company for being scummy since if they lie about the pool being outside like normal pools then they are obviously lying about the cutting edge technology, and thus they are also lying about many other things
Buoy, Piston, Crash, and Ferris definitely _sound_ like a quirky group of teenage troublemakers.
FINALLY!!!! It has been forever since I've found one this good. So much effort put into this. I will pass the word around. Ty for giving us something that's unique. I felt like I was drowning in bad ARGs.
Oh sweet. Giving me some Action Park vibes
Damn I’ve been writing a series about a theme park for the past 2 years, might have to scrap mine now. I really like what you did with the concept.
I love this type of horror. BTW great edit with the original night of the living dead. Hats off to you good sir. If anyone else is looking for more theme park horror try looking up boardwalk beach.
This concept was super interesting! I really liked it. Although I do think some droning ambience in the some of the silent parts would go a long way.
Kinda looks like a mockery type webseries. been a while since I’ve seen one.
I’ll just say the faces at the end where a bit weird. But nonetheless, this looks promising!
Thank God I'm allergic to pool chemicals I don't go swimming
Also love the video it's amazing I wish I had confidence to make stuff like this
This is a very good video, I like the style and has some really good moments. Hope the video games more traction soon, also hope your having a good day
Will be watching.
Absolutely so cool! Love your art A LOT and I love the style you chose for this video. I just came here from your second video and I love both of them!! I never thought id be so scared by a slide. I hope your videos get really popular!
The new Disneyland commercial looks great!
Jeez, empty and quiet spaces had never been more chilling!
Some interesting ideas here; keep up the great work!
Watched this while I was high af and I talked myself into thinking this was the best ARG of all time lmao
This was really good - I hope to see more
"life is a game..play with it" one of the most ominous lines i ever heard in analog horror
Loved this!
This is really good and I love the end with the iconic clip from the night of the living dead!
(Will this be an analog series? because I don't think there's any that takes place in a theme park.)
I am planning to make it a series. I was about halfway finished with the second video, but had to take a break after getting a little burnt out. I'm hoping to dive back into it soon, though!
@@frankiecrowe AWSOME!!!
This was awesome!
Underrated. Loved it
Interesting, interesting! The only thing I'd like to critique is the use of creepily distorted versions of the mascots at the end - now, there's nothing inherently wrong with using a standard trope, but does this part actually enhance the horror? I don't think so. Still, this is very promising! Wondering where you'll take this one. By the way, how did you actually create this? I've wanted to create something like this for a while, but lacked the skill to pull it off.
Hey, thanks for the feedback! I really appreciate the constructive criticism; I feel like it's a fair critique.
I know that most of the apps, software, etc. that I use are listed in the description, but I really want to highlight Blender and Autodesk Sketchbook.
Blender, I feel, is incredibly underrated as a video editor. (It also allows you to create special effects and flourish such as film grain) Autodesk Sketchbook, I use to draw frames for the animations, and also to warp existing photographs. Both have been fantastic in this process, and I spend 99% of my time bouncing between them.
Thank you so much again!
I think they were banking on the shadowy figure with weird eyes trope still being scary when they distorted the shirtless guy, but the one on the far right did scare me
I see it as, “These four are screwed, but how and why is that the case? Watch to find out.)
Love the "When The Saints Go Marching In" theme in this
My parents tried to take us there when I was under a year old. We couldn’t get in cause the ticket seller girl kept crying and crying.
with my wifi freezing all the time, it is even better lol
i really liked the idea!
Nice video! ❤
Judging by the music among other things, I assume this takes place in Louisiana
I love the laugh
5:07 bruh swimming boy became the alternate from Mandela catalogue
Frankie Crowe, a Question. Is this your first time making an AH?
“Me” has left the chat
This is nice, I’d recommend posting a link on r/arg or r/analog horror if that’s a think, have a good weekend
BRUH THE FRICKIN WIHISTLE SCARED ME
What are the timeline of events of the park can you explain them to be in order from opening to closure
Is some part of the video supposed to be mute or smth happened, idk me dumb
The real horror is that lifeguard wearing socks
Imma be honest and say that I like the character designs. They look cute and sort of remind me of school house rock.
im sorry but i cant hold it in anymore. at 3:18 i was singing "in the end" by linkin park
edit: not saying its bad. just saying i did it. this looks really cool in my opinion
i remember this place and i finished first place at sega rally and idk what happened at the pools i was too busy at the arcade corner
3:15
"It starts with-"
“One thing, I don’t know why”
I love the premise! It’s a great start and I really like it, however I do have some constructive criticism to offer, if you don’t mind.
-The colors are way too vibrant. There’s not enough grain and fading and whatnot to obtain the VHS style you were going for in my opinion. I love the artstyle but with the clarity and whatnot it’s a bit immersion breaking.
-The animation style, the tweening(? I’m not sure) where the animated parts simply glide across the screen is too high tech for something meant to give off an old timey vibe. I am no expert in older era animation, but back then a lot of animation was cel-animation with individual frames. I honestly don’t expect you to change this because individual frame work is a pain in the ass, but at the time computer animation software was just getting its start so seeing that clear, computer framed animation is jarring.
-The transition from normal to “scary” is sudden, and not in a good way. It’s not subtle, it’s very out there, and it doesn’t sneak up on you. I would suggest a slower transition with a few hints of something being “wrong” before going into the deep end. Also, once everything is wrong it doesn’t return to much of a period of normalcy. Hence the next point.
-With the last point in mind, the scares then don’t deliver that much of an impact. Glitched audio, weird faces, frames that stay on for just a LITTLE too long are classic analog horror keystones. You have to have that element of surprise for them to work, so I suggest those being the ones given in periods where you assume everything is back to normal now. They shouldn’t be subtly introduced in this case, they should come out of nowhere once your viewers feel that sense of safety with a hint of still being on edge.
I’m not a total expert on animation and horror, so these are simply my opinions and ideas that I have derived in my own thought process. I love the concept a lot and it is very processing. Good job man, keep it up!
I can’t edit on mobile, so I’m just clarifying: I DON’T want you to transit to hand drawn traditional animation. It just needs to be less floaty if that makes sense. The characters gliding from one side of the screen to the other makes them look both stiff and obviously key-framed to move across the screen. I’m just advising that you do some actual frames so that the characters move.
5:09 damn peter griffin and his buddies lookin different
This has the aura of an elaborate shitpost and i can't wait to see where it's going next 👍
Evidently... murders happened at the amusement park. Okay.
The thrills
Dang
Felix driving the car 3:37
EDIT: wow, no likes in 3 months 🙁
So wait, is this supposed to be about a real amusement park or a video game that is haunted or possessed by murder victims?
It's about a theme park that's real in-universe.
@@CantusTropus really? It is just that from the commercial for it, it kinda looked like a video game. But thank you for clearing that up for me.
