@@juststrings1812 it could be. But I chopped it up to he isnt on game theory anymore so it's not his shtick anymore. It's not that he isnt allowed to he just dont.
During the "To the Mountain" episode i think the audio comes out to "...Were confused when they discovered what at first they thought was the mangled carcass of an animal... they hurried to contact authorities when they witnessed a human skull... the men who chose to remain anonymous say they've hiked the mout greylock trails for over a decade..." also other notes, the guy the radio sermon mentioned Charles Spurgeon was a real preacher in the mid 1800's, not a made up character with a cool name, and the series is set around MT. Greylock, Massachusetts
Also want to add that in episode 3 "Orientation Protocols" the mention of "Project Stargate" was a real thing done by I believe the CIA testing how real if at all psychic phenomenon were and if they had any military applications
I also get random nose bleeds and when they happen they are just a slight inconvenience I don't care about them and would be more concerned about the thing I was doing
@Newbster_0 I think that was a joke! I just think he doesn't want to say it, I remember someone in the comments saying that he said it for the last time in his retirement video ^^
Actually, I think the shift in the preacher's dialogue at the end means the protagonist is in trouble, an entity that means harm is nearby. The changing of the lights to me seems the protagonist already suspects something is up. Then the car speeds away as the dialogue gets darker and garbled, signifying running away from danger. (To be clearer, something dark is impersonating the priest at this point, taking the, "People do evil things thinking it's the right thing," idea to new heights.
When I was listening back at it, the preachers voice sounds different in the second part. In the beginning there is a lot of emotion and variation in how he's speaking, but when the protagonist is leaving the preachers, voice sounds flatter.
Oh that's interesting. Thanks! I study computer science and I've never heard of this so thats cool to know. It'd be nice if MatPat could read this comment too.
22:45 "a human skull" is what I heard. I also was able to make out this line of dialogue from 22:58 : "a (unintelligible), who wished to remain anonymous, say that they've hiked Mt. Greylock, that is, for over a decade." This next line directly following is harder to make out, but I think it says: "and while they surely seemed confused, they've seen things over the years they couldn't have...." and that's all I can make out. Hope this helps in the future.
Thanks to another comment, I think I've been able to piece most of of the dialogue together! The section you're talking about I believe says this: "...who wish to remain anonymous, say they’ve hiked the Mt. Greylock trails for over a decade, and while they’ve certainly seen their share of bizarre things over the years..." and beyond that I can't make it out, it gets too garbled.
Mat immediately being concerned about Ash's nosebleed and disregarding everything else to care for them is so sweet. It really shows you what kind of guy he is. Edit: Jesus Christ don't go in the replies. Some asshole is being transphobic in there because I used a singular they in my comment. 🙄 Edit 2: They're doing it on other comments, too. Just ignore them.
OH! I THINK I KNOW WHAT ALL THE GARBLE WAS ABOUT IN THE SECOND VIDEO! It just clicked! From the bits and pieces I can understand, it seems like all the garbled words are from a news report of some kind detailing someone who found what they at first thought was a dead animal, but was actually a human body. At 20:00 , the garble, after a few non-decipherable words, is saying, "...when they came across what they at first believed to be the mangled carcass of an animal..." At 21:44 , "...then the hikers noticed a human skull..." (I can't tell what it says directly after, but it then repeats "a human skull") At 23:00 , I can't tell the first couple of words here either, but it says, "...who wished to remain anonymous, said that they..." and beyond that I can't make it out. Thanks to another comment, I've been able to piece more of this dialogue together! "...who wish to remain anonymous, say they’ve hiked the Mt. Greylock trails for over a decade, and while they’ve certainly seen their share of bizarre things over the years..." and beyond that I can't make it out, it gets too garbled. With all of these pieces it definitely seems like a news report detailing how a group of hikers (fits the mountain themed title) came across a decaying human body on Mt. Greylock.
What if the second tape is one of the patients suffering from the side effects? The cuts in reality could be the lapses of consciousness due to the temporary amnesia, it also calls out how patients shouldn't drive or operate machinery, which is seen in tape 2.
thats like very cool actually but i heard its jim melgren as all the tapes that are from the point of view of someone is either jim melgren or someone else if explicitly said
I love the detail of the headlights switching to high beams and back three times, it’s like one of those urban legend ritual things! And when the third one is done, THAT’S when things change!
personally i think the second tape is the pov of someone experiencing the side effects of the manifestation machine, the dizziness, temporary amnesia, and mild hallucinations really come off in the switching between the two “timelines” as matt references them as. also in the third tape they say not to drive for 72 hours. the second tape could be the pov of someone who drove before those 72 hours were up… but that’s just a theory… ;)

@@Anonyomus_commenter could be in the contract. contracts are peculiar things. contracts might say that only hosts of each channel can say certain phrases, otherwise it would cause brand confusion. especially since he sold the game theorists channels. notice the way mat sometimes talks about things now? it's a little different in how he talks about things now. like a 'i don't cover it anymore. ____ covers that now.' it's more than just 'retirement'. there are certain roles he no longer fills, therefore he can't say certain things anymore.
i love the concept of "thoughtforms". if "half-baked" its to a person like depression or narcisissm, telling you to be awful or great or something but a "full" thoughtform is an actual person that can not only destroy or build you up, but others aswell great reflection by greylock imo

@@YueNekoTsubasa Won't regret. They found very good explanation about the locked box and what's inside, why it must stay cled, and a reason for baloon boy. Who is the vengefull spirit, and why. And so much more.
I have to agree. While I do enjoy many types of horror here on CZcams especially analog, Greylock is one of the few that really, really spooks me. Possibly could just have the added factor that I happen to live in MA but either way the editing, audio, and ways details are given out aren't super crazy. This is a very nice paced analog and I can't wait to see the ending.
I love the concept a lot, but I think some of the other analog horrors have more captivating presentations. I loved the little training video but the others were a bit bland to me. Religious horror doesn't really get to me so much. I'm interested in where it'll go next
Mmmmm you have a good point with the religious aspect. A lot have been involving a religion, god, or a high power of some sorts which just ends up being repetitive. Many analogs have used the same things which is understandable considering lots of ideas have been used but the popular ones seem to be pretty consistent in the types of themes they have.
@@NikkiBudders whilst in Greylock there are, and are going to be references, to religion, without spoiling (if you have not seen all up to the recent releases) I'll just let you know that the themes don't become completely bathed in religion. In this case especially, I believe it's there symbolically to make you think about whatever else will come up, and to convey that something ain't right.
Greylock is maybe my favorite analog horror series since Gemini Home Entertainment. The Monument Mythos is a very close contender, but it's so surreal and experimental that it's hard to necessarily classify as analog horror anymore (not to mention the creator's tendency to delete large chunks of their content with no warning has left a bad taste in my mouth). This series feels like a direct evolution of something like Local58 and GHE, with a few notes of Vita Carnis and a truly fascinating premise that's all its own. I am so excited to see MatPat react to it!
I believe the garbled audio is transcripts from a news report. Thanks to another comment, I've been able to piece most of this dialogue together.

One big thing to note from the Thoughtform Tape is that those kind of beings can affect electronics, which makes the eventual distortions in the tape highly suspect, especially since those sections involve how safe Thoughtforms are and how they can’t possibly escape containment.
I know it's been over for a loooong time, but I kinda wish MatPat would react to Marble Hornets on GTLive one day, it's one of, if not THE OG web horror series on CZcams and still holds very well today
Not through the video yet and don't know if this is relevant to this series at all, but as someone who gets pretty frequent migraines, the bubble transitions that Mat talks about at ~18 minutes are pretty reminiscent of some of the auras I get before migraines. Again at ~52 all of these except for temporary amnesia are symptoms of migraine, probably unintentional but I still think it's interesting. Edit: actually I just looked it up and apparently migraines can cause something called transient global amnesia, so technically all side effects are also symptoms of migraine (with aura).
I'm excited to see Matpat watch Greylock but it's hard for me to watch Greylock mainly because I live in Massachusetts myself. While I have never been to where the analog takes place (of what I have seen so far) it really is only one of the few that has that ability to freak me out simply due to the location choosing. Minus that point it's a great analog horror series that even without the location detail would be able to scare me regardless.
You should check out Lacey's Games too! It gets into some uncomfortable territory for some people, but its really well done. Also, IM SO EARLY! Thanks for the video, I love spooks :) ❤
The "if youre not the intended viewer" is generally the last line of defense. Between workers, if anyone comes across this tape, if it somehow gets mixed up, that warning essentially acts as a label on the cover that lists a security rating. You CAN just open a top secret file if you have it physically, and the big red "CONFIDENTIAL" isnt going to stop you. But it will act as a warning if you are following the rules. Basically a "dont park here" sign. Its just a sign. It aint stopping you.
can she actually come back? i would think so, but the contract they signed in selling the theorist channels might say something different. or maybe under certain conditions.
10:00 I think he's asking it to "fetch" something. To retrieve certain data 12:35 Ash's nose starting to bleed as you get into this series is ominous lol 25:40 Observation: It looks like they are driving at normal speed, but the audio that they have been listening to is "slowed down." Is this meant to indicate the driver is going really fast by comparison? 30:34 A common superstition in Appalachia is that the things that lurk in the deep forests can mimic, or even alter, sounds. Common advice: you did not hear that and get home as fast as possible 38:20 Getting some Persona vibes on that 45:05 I think the distinction between ghost and thoughtform is that ghosts have to interact through a medium and thoughtforms can interact directly
45:10 The idea of ghosts being the manifestation of mourning thoughts reminds me of jujutsu kaisen and how curses are the accumulation of negative emotions 🤷♀️
Mat, you should really play 'the werecleaner' it's a pretty new short story game with cute graphics and you get to clean rooms withought being spotted. I think it's right up your alley
I am slowly starting to wonder when they're going to make a theory discussing the symbolism of "Sky: Children of the Light." It's a multiplatform game, and it just released on pc, so it should be pretty easy to cover. On the surface, it seems pretty casual. But there is a deeper story here. And I hope you guys can uncover it.

Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if he's already seen it
I want him to so bad
*"It's just a theory."*
**>Everyone will remember that.**
Finally he covered this one, I've been hoping mat would cover it for a while
So happy to see you covering this finally, this series has some of the coolest practical effects and props I've ever seen
Not through the video yet and don't know if this is relevant to this series at all, but as someone who gets pretty frequent migraines, the bubble transitions that Mat talks about at ~18 minutes are pretty reminiscent of some of the auras I get before migraines.
Again at ~52 all of these except for temporary amnesia are symptoms of migraine, probably unintentional but I still think it's interesting.
Edit: actually I just looked it up and apparently migraines can cause something called transient global amnesia, so technically all side effects are also symptoms of migraine (with aura).
"There was Carna Vitis" great quote
Ash, I've had chronic nose bleeds since i can remember, it sucksz but ive found nasal mist/saline sprays have helped a lot in reducing frequency
So it's a dry skin thing?
Matpat really just left us hanging with that. "That's just a theory..." 😂😈
I'm excited to see Matpat watch Greylock but it's hard for me to watch Greylock mainly because I live in Massachusetts myself. While I have never been to where the analog takes place (of what I have seen so far) it really is only one of the few that has that ability to freak me out simply due to the location choosing.
Minus that point it's a great analog horror series that even without the location detail would be able to scare me regardless.
I just Googled how far the real Mt.Greylock is from me out of curiosity and it is 3 hours away so yeah, quite far.
don't think matpat knows that greylock is a real place yet.
I’m also up at 5am watching this BECAUSE of a nosebleed. Feeling you there Ash haha
52:55 I'm actually quite proud of Ash if they (hypothetically) caused MatPat to retire. That kind of power could convince Zeus into abstinence!
idk why but watching scary shit with yall is calming?? it soothes my lil heart to get spooked with yall
You should check out Lacey's Games too! It gets into some uncomfortable territory for some people, but its really well done. Also, IM SO EARLY! Thanks for the video, I love spooks :) ❤
He definitely should, it's such a good series, and one of my favorites.
I’m glad this is the channel you decided to keep. Longest videos and we get to see your personality in full effect
MatPat DadPat @ 12:30 🥰 I love that they weee saying “I’m her for you” right before that moment lol
12:31 dont we just love the voice in mat's head telling him he's not alone
We need a podcast with ash and mat called THE WITTY BANTER
What’s crazy is the moment that Matt and ash are talking about beefy thoughts, I get an Arby’s add for their meats
Love my gt(not) live videos on a fun schedule I have something to look forward to every few days!
Its a very nice weekly dose of matt and ash!
The "if youre not the intended viewer" is generally the last line of defense.
Between workers, if anyone comes across this tape, if it somehow gets mixed up, that warning essentially acts as a label on the cover that lists a security rating.
You CAN just open a top secret file if you have it physically, and the big red "CONFIDENTIAL" isnt going to stop you. But it will act as a warning if you are following the rules.
Basically a "dont park here" sign. Its just a sign. It aint stopping you.
U CANT SAY THEORY LIKE THAT I WILL CRY AGAIN
@UTTPSheriffBiIIMCook tell me ur a fake fan without telling me ur a fake fan 😂🤚🏾
@@CatsSmore Hey! Heads up it's a bot, if you reply the CZcams algorithm thinks it's human. For future reference, DONT REPLY TO THESE MONSTERS
@@CatsSmoreplease don’t reply to them as CZcams will think they are real ppl. Report and move on, and dw, I just did.
@@GregTheEggy, can we report them, while being effective?
@@Dale_Russell Yeah Report them, just don't reply to them
I love Ash and Mat creating lore up on the spot. (59.41)
I can't wait for Kindergarten 3 to come out so Matpat and Steff can play it and I need to hear the Nugget voice again.🍗
can she actually come back? i would think so, but the contract they signed in selling the theorist channels might say something different. or maybe under certain conditions.
@@nicsosa369 oh my God I have really hope so because I need to hear the Nugget voice again it's so good and so iconic
Matpat inventing imaginary rivals instead of imaginary friends is peak scorpio behavior
10:00 I think he's asking it to "fetch" something. To retrieve certain data
12:35 Ash's nose starting to bleed as you get into this series is ominous lol
25:40 Observation: It looks like they are driving at normal speed, but the audio that they have been listening to is "slowed down." Is this meant to indicate the driver is going really fast by comparison?
30:34 A common superstition in Appalachia is that the things that lurk in the deep forests can mimic, or even alter, sounds. Common advice: you did not hear that and get home as fast as possible
38:20 Getting some Persona vibes on that
45:05 I think the distinction between ghost and thoughtform is that ghosts have to interact through a medium and thoughtforms can interact directly
Every time he posts on gt live I’m scared it’s going to be “my last gt live”
wait til matt learns that greylock is a real place.
i need more greylock on this channel badly it's such a good series
Its so wholesome the way that matpat gets happy to hear that the creator was still making things
I only realized Rob was the creator after I became invested, but it made me even more excited to see where the story goes next.
The messed up speech: "??????????? what they at first believed to be the ??? carcass of an animal"
The word you're missing is mangled. "What they at first believed to be the mangled carcass of an animal."
45:10 The idea of ghosts being the manifestation of mourning thoughts reminds me of jujutsu kaisen and how curses are the accumulation of negative emotions 🤷♀️
Matt I had a mental breakdown earlier and this has made me feel better. Thank you.
This analog horror got so much scarier when Ash suddenly starts bleeding from her nose! Dx
22:50
Really sounds like "A shooting spree" to me.
I’ve followed Rob’s context for so long it’s so cool to see this crossover happen 🥰
The imaginary friend talk reminded me of the Cuphead episode a while ago when they had a similar conversation. Who remembers that?
im actually so happy matpat got to greylock! greylock is seriously one of and if not the best analog horror out there.
Day 39 of begging Matpat to watch Emesis Blue
You are first
Lol
PLEASE YEAH
@UTTPSheriffBiIIMCookno one loves you
He hasn't watched that masterpiece yet 😱
i remember Ash's imaginary friends all the way back from the Cuphead episode!! i may watch too much GTLive
It all makes sense, Ash is a thoughtform because the gtlive space is the barrier they have trapped them in, I understand everything now
The “scientific explanation for ghosts” in this is actually very similar to peeves the poltergeist from Harry Potter.
greylock is SO INTERESTING, keep covering it!!
yesss ikr i love greylock!
Greylock is the best analog horror series Imo
I would love if you guys covers more rusty lake, you touched on one of their games but there is still so much story and LORRRREEE to cover!!
hearing matt and ash's imaginary friends is so cool, and then i remember my imaginary friend is a 2 ft tall talking banana
Do Monument Mythos by MR. MANTICORE next. It’s one of my favourites along with GREYLOCK itself.
At 20:30 I heard "mangled carcass of an animal" in this video
Mat, you should really play 'the werecleaner' it's a pretty new short story game with cute graphics and you get to clean rooms withought being spotted. I think it's right up your alley
Woke up from my hibernation just in time
Just like your father?
@@GingyPrestonLil bro forgot to change his account
Matpat’s famous “it’s just a theory” aaaah takes me back.
Mat consider playing Slay the Princess 👀👀
Get em boys
I am slowly starting to wonder when they're going to make a theory discussing the symbolism of "Sky: Children of the Light."
It's a multiplatform game, and it just released on pc, so it should be pretty easy to cover.
On the surface, it seems pretty casual. But there is a deeper story here. And I hope you guys can uncover it.
The Game theorists should make an analogue horror series
41:00 bro really had skeletor as an imaginary friend...
