- House tells a mysterious story which can at first sight be hard to decipher. This pixel art horror game tells the story of Tabby, a young girl who recently moved into a new house with her family, only to discover it is haunted by a strange entity with the power to control them like puppets. How can Tabby escape this neverending nightmare? We investigate in today's episode of horror games explained. This is the story of House...

You gotta admit, Tabby ripping her arm off to break free from the old man, took out an axe, and then cut him in two is a high level badass move.
yeah true
It is also a big act of sacrifice.
Top tier Badass move
Wouldn't you do that too if you've been stuck in that house dying thousands of times over and over again
@@rubixdude1067 true and she would probably be numb to the pain
Sounds like some major PTSD and possible survivors guilt in her dreams. Not the entity or anything.
I agree, seems like a result of intense trauma
I don't think the entity would still be able to haunt her in this way if she already destroyed it, or atleast her escape doesn't seem as impactful with it being implied still alive or having a hold on her in my opinion :]
Same
True but, there are somethings like the dlc that prove the entity is whats happening.
@@allyfairy5828 oh I mean after you finish the true ending, the entity was def there before you actually escape
I’m pretty sure that this whole game is about abusive households. I mean, the mother is an alcoholic and the dad straight up tries to kill but they’re are other tiny details that point to this being about abuse. Toby dying could’ve been the father gatekeeping his children from seeing others, Melody is obviously depressed because she can’t go out, the door is also probably locked for that reason as well. Another hint is when tabby loses her arm. Now she doesn’t actually lose her arm but when she left the abusive house it took a part of her emotionally which can really damage a perosn. And the whole repeating thing is obviously that everyday she’s still in a abusive household and the abuse will never stop unless she leaves. The whole dream is most likely ptsd from the horrible household she lived in.
At the very least, her repeated experiences in the old house after the true endings are only her dreams. I would imagine she'd be trying to go for the family together ending each time since that's the best she can do, given that they are all gone.
Sad. );
Well the devs need to make the game replayable somehow

You sound like a party pooper
I'm not certain whether the father killing Toby was intentional. We do know that the father disliked Toby, or so Toby and Melody thought. I think it's rather strongly implied that Toby died to the bear trap, which could have been an accident caused by the house.
The father's portrait is normal at the start of the day, implying that he was relatively normal during the morning. We know that when someone dies, their portrait disappears, when we go on a killing spree, our portrait gets flipped upside down. Given how the father's portrait starts out normal in the morning and disappears sometime before the mother is supposed to slip and die, I think it is reasonable to assume that the father starts out normal that day, but dies and gets resurrected by the house as a homicidal monster. I think Toby's death was an accident caused by the house as a means to mentally scar the family and serves as the starting point in breaking them.
Yeah!
There's a sequel now, and
(SPOILERS)
it's actually the father who killed Toby.
@@knockedout2826 Yup, looks like my whole comment has been rendered moot. Looks like the father killed Toby under the house's influence. The puppet master is strongly implied to be the grandfather being possessed by the house and is a seperate entity from the house. The doll is not affiliated with the house, but also something possessed by the house used to break Tabby and Melody.
Tabby either failed to actually escape form the house in the previous ending (she did success is weakening the house enough for the family to wake up, however), or did escape but returned with help from the neighbor to save Melody.
It never ends.
@@tomhsia4354 It actually makes sense that the house took influence over the father, since he said "I don't know what came over me"
No his body wouldve been mangled if it was the bear trap the house just took control of him and made him kill him
I thought the doll was separate from the house, and was just being cynical because it was like an opposite to tabby, knowing that the time loop exists but not caring because it thought there's nothing to stop it, but its final cutscene makes what you said make more sense.
I thought the same thing
In the DLC it turns out the dolls were previous people whom the house killed. They are presumably trying to get you to give up so they can take your pl(f)ace
In case anyone was curious, the song Melody plays on the piano is In the Evening Mist from a movie which is also called House!!! Weirdest movie I've ever seen, 10/10 would recommend.
Thank u for telling me!
It almost sound like Welcome to the black parade
that movie freaked me out so much when i was younger
Coincidence? I think NOT
I cannot tell you how excited I was when I heard that Melody. I love that movie but it's so obscure and to see it referenced made my whole day.
It's a shame she lost her family in the process, hopefully we can get an ending where she finds a way to save them through her dreams
I’ve made a rant on this already but I’m pretty sure this whole game is supposed to be an abusive household.
Here’s the whole rant/theory I made:
I’m pretty sure that this whole game is about abusive households. I mean, the mother is an alcoholic and the dad straight up tries to kill but they’re are other tiny details that point to this being about abuse. Toby dying could’ve been the father gatekeeping his children from seeing others, Melody is obviously depressed because she can’t go out, the door is also probably locked for that reason as well.

The whole dream is most likely ptsd from the horrible household she lived in.
@@the_roach_king. I dontt think that theory makes sense cuz what about the monsters, the freak accident deaths, tobys dead body, if ur theory is right then tabby would just be living in denial saying it was all the houses fault, which would be a pretty bad ending, personally I think ur theory is just trying to make the game more realistic but I think that while the game is great the story is not that deep.
@@sodpati4182 Only way for the theory to make some sense if the monsters are in Tabby's head because little kids have alot of imagination
@@ZekeTheNerdVX yeah but even then monster being in the house would imply again that abby blames abuse on the house so I dont think this theory can be true in almost every situation
@@the_roach_king.It's an... Interesting implementation here. Yet it's not true, I think. Doesn't line up with all monsters. Unless it's the other relatives, but nothing is said about them.
SHB:”so how can Tabby end this cycle and escape?”
AD:”PAIN”
Worst timing
@@simonking9262 no. It’s the best timing
I got an ad that was about life insurance after that question and I laughed hard lmao
@@angelhunter7557 Correct, you just won family feud!
It would be a great sequel game, it could be called "dream"
No not the dream youtuber!
@@Tblz981 house speedrun any%
@@goose6361 and the next would be "crafting table"
@@sleeeepyy_ SAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaPPPPPPPPPPPPPPNAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAPPPPPPPPPPPPPppppppppppp
"DreamHouse" would be a good play title since she keeps searching endings to save her family.
Neat, reminds me of a D&D game I ran once, one of the players inherits a mansion from a estranged relative, when they get there, it's eventually discovered that the mansion is a "House Hunter", a house sized mimic, the final boss was the heart, which was located in the basement. Other organs in the house also attempted to stop the party.
this sounds awesome
Sounds fun
Omg that sounds so fun :D
Yoooo that is sick!
One of the few horror games with a somewhat happy ending
But Tabby is alone only has one arm and probably homeless
@@amirhaikal8304 well at least she lives unlike every other horror game protagonist
Isn't she still haunted by the House in her dreams?
@@amirhaikal8304 actually in the wiki it said she moved in with the neighbor
I would really like you to explain the story of 12 minutes! Just like this game, the main character is also stuck in a time loop. Many youtubers have already played it and the 6 endings in the game are all quite interesting
Oh I thought explain this story in 12 minutes but it's just the game's name lol
The Neighbour is like a sort of good version of The Teacher from Little Nightmares 2
Still just as creepy though
I like how SHB is like "The doll/house is scared of the lil girl...and rightfully so." Tabby is a real one, the way she pulled that axe out.😂😐
She literally got her arm ripped off, yet she still was able to chop the old man like it was nothing
Tabby when her arm rips off:
"argh, call an ambulance! Call an ambulance!"
*"but not for me"*
Thank you for explaining this game I cant watch the gameplays without getting scared
If you want a chill Let's Play of this game and many other horror games, Manlybadasshero is a great choice to watch. He's not a screamer, and has a dry wit to him. Any time a new horror game comes out, I generally watch his playthrough first.
Try markiplier or captinsauce they did this and made it not so scary
@@penguin5907 I like Markiplier's playthrough, too. I had to avoid it for a couple of days when I had a headache coming on, but I enjoyed it when I could watch it again. 😅
@@sunnywhite196 ye Lol
@@sunnywhite196 8 bit Ryan is humorous and comforting
Theory:The house in one of the only paranormal things in that universe considering the fact that the neighbour seems to be aware of anything and acting like its more of s normal day so I think The world Abby lives in isn't a normal world but has always been qith weird entities
her name is Tabby
@Kami and.a maybe it’s auto correct?
Seeing Tabby do all this badass stuff makes me want her to get some cool robo arm
In the DLC video. Melodie’s grandmother says she hasn’t seen the grandfather for along time. So I believe that the grandfather is the person controlling the house
Me: Now that's what I call a true ending!

It would be nice to have an explanation of all the terrible monsters that lurk in the house, or at least all the information you can find and theorize about them.

This was a sad one. I'm telling ya Mikey, Murder House would be right up your alley. It's done retro style. I'd love to see an LP followed by your lore video.
The creators should make a game about the time before the event of the house cuz there are mysteries that are still left unanswered, like how did Melody get depression, what did Toby do that made the father kill him, why did the father have such bloodlust that made his try to kill his whole family, what's the relationship between Melody and Toby (reference to what Melody said " I hate him for what he did"), the mother's drinking problems and most importantly, how was the house created?
I thought Melody said that she hated the father for what he did, probably moving them into the house. No idea what happened to Tobi but he might have liked Melody as a friend/crush and... Well I guess the house didn't like happiness.
@@foongern1071 By a viewer's point of view, yea maybe melody hates her dad for moving into a house like this, but by a story teller's point of view, it won't make much sense and one thing about stories like this is that they want to make sure people are still there, trying to find the answer cuz the human brain is functioned with one thing that will keep them in this rabbit hole and that is finding the right answer. Imagine this, you're nearly about to complete a mario level and as soon as you're right next to the flag, you pause the game and move on with your day. The brain will constantly think about that and will not rest unless it is completed. So the story will be really uninteresting if Toby and Melody have nothing to do with each other, like as if there's no spice to this. Not only that, it'll explain the whole "Melody has depression" thingy.
I'm glad this game is finally getting recognized!💖😫
I really love the way tabby moves. the floppy sleeves and floaty walk are adorable
I couldn't figure out what was going on with Toby, thanks for explaining it!
I thought Toby was a former resident of the house
Yesss I've been looking forward to your video on the story of this game since I heard about the release!
I love these horror explains :)
I feel sorry for Tabby,she lost her family,arm and everything she loved.
The piano theme is the same one from the 1977 Japanese horror movie also titled House (aka Hausu)! A fantastically strange and beautiful horror movie, it's pretty clear how much it inspired this game.
Yes! A story explained I love it! I needed this 💞 awesome video!
same
Yes!
I would love to see a video on all the entities in the house!
This was perfect :3 I understood everything when I was so confused before. Thanks, Mike :3
:3
But the forces of light that try to put Taby back on the right path are still with her after the house is defeated, you skipped that part.
You should realy play the game: *Lost in random.*
Its a horror type of game, with a realy cool art style, mechanics, and story.
The part where she pulls out the axe and kills the demon was epic
Yep this channel is in my top 5 now. Great content bro you have my support
I have been waiting for an explanation thank you!
I legit just speed click when I saw it uploaded a few mins ago-
This video was very entertaining and informative! Great job! Thank You for making it! 👍😁👌‼️
Anyone notice how like tabi walking slowly to the talking doll and destroys it so she can be free of that place? Did anyone notice its resemblance in undertale's genicide route literaly you can kill every living monster in the underground and ALSO slowly approaching flowey in the end to kill him so frisk can escape the place. Does anyone else notice the resemblance to these two games or is it just me?
that was very interesting i didn't even think that
And also the fact that in this game its confirmed that it is an endless loop until you escape the place an in undertale some monster knows what you did in the genocide route until you escape the underground and if you decide to reset.
@@NoobyG13 yeah
@@kamiand.a8066 want to know more detail?
@@NoobyG13 no thank you but i know undertale
I've been waiting for this and I'm so glad it's finally here!
I love how Tabby is a whole badass dealing with every entity like it's another tuesday while the entities is just helping Melody with every little thing
i love your videos, they are so fun to watch!! keep it up ^^
Keep making these amazing vids. I enjoy them so much.

Floweys monologue in a genocide run lol
Tabby: exists
House: You Shall Not Live!!!!!
Yes
I loved this game thanks Superhororbro!!!
Thank you for making a story explained video because I did not understand the story but now I do
The music he uses sounds like something out of a irl mystery documentary and something out of a quiz show at the same time
The house is like scp-3008 (the ikea), you cant leave it, it has its own reality inside
Like how he’s already getting so many more subs :), Road to 2 Mil!
I've been waiting for this I'm so excited.
That was great! Still waiting for the white day endings explained though :/
I have a theory about how all the monsters/entities got there.
I think that before Tabby and her family move in there were a different family that lived there. The house was cursed to begin with, and such killed the family turning them into some of the monsters in the house. The mom became the thing in the parents bedroom, the dad because the shadow creature, and there kid (I think there daughter) became the toilet monster. I also believe that the giant rat and the talking snail as well as the neighbor were all distorted by the house. The rat and snail have always been there so the house made the rat big, but also aggressive, and gave the snail the ability to speak English and remember what happened in the last loop. The neighbor visited a lot and then got given the extendable neck.
Multiple other families moved in after that one and all got killed and turned into the other monsters and entities, until Tabby's family moved in. As we know from this game, after someone dies the get turned into a monster, but somehow Tabby still gets the ability to remember the loop allowing her to save her family, but the loop goes on because the dad never dies, but when he does Tabby's still alive so the loop continues, and evening though Tabby escaped in her dreams the loop continues so the house can kill the entire family.
I adore this game, great explanation
"So how can Tabby break this loop?"
Ad: try trident sour gum!~
He needs to do an updated petscop theory
I'd love to see a Cat in a Box gameplay or explanation!
May you play a game called whispering willow? Also when completed, may you do a story on it?
Wow! I played this game and thought I saw it all, but I had no idea about the broken clock.
Maybe the curse still exists but it is now in her dreams
I first learned about this game through Manly, he played the BETA versions, we insta knew it would be a top loved game!
9:20 Same as me.
I think, sofar, you are the only youtubeer who that I have subscrbed to who made an explain video on this story.
Yes I was waiting for this :)
And you can't go back, to playing as Tabby.
having a dream like that every night sounds awesome, its like having a built in video game inside you and you can play it every time you sleep
A video on what each of the monsters and entities represent could be interesting. If they do indeed have meaning
CONGRATS ON HITTING 1 MILLION YOU DESERVE IT!!!🤩🤩🤩🤩🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳
Wait i doubt the last part bcuz if u kill the frog then go to the neighbor and talk to her she will say “I just didn’t want you to be bored in this place” hinting that she is still in the influence of the house and maybe the plant symbolizes something like how the house’s power is now back and is now influencing her and she is back in the loop
Your gonna have to make a video on the new update. It adds a completely new story on the house based on the sister
I’d love for you to talk about each monster in the house or character
Thank you so much making this video😁😁😁
The mom takes one sip of whine and passes out
House looks so cool. I hope there will be Fandoms about it.
Thanks for making this video
The game has a new update where you play as Melody and it will be nice if you try it. Like me, some people don't know what to do. And this is after Tabby escapes the house and because Tabby needs all the weapons to escape and there are no more weapons in the house. To play as Melody there will be a doll that looks like her, Tabby will have to talk to the neighbour with the doll in her hands.
I love the way how he calls Tabby “Toby”😭
No they're different
This game is so damn incredible. I'm so exited for whatever happens next. From what I've seen, we'll play as the Neighbour next.
Most of these horror games can easily be solved by a trip to your local church
In the true ending that loss oof an arm and still fighting muse take a lot of effort.
Losing an arm causes 1 thing: PAIN
This needs a physical release
Just saying but this game could use a sequel maybe it would be intresting to see but for now guess I'll enjoy watching these videos
i think the song the younger sister plays on the piano is a reference to the japanese horror movie "house", as it is the same tune the character melody plays in that film before getting eaten by a piano
I like how he find all the clues like a great detective it’s so cool he’s amazing really talented he fights all cool in the game is it tells a story about it it’s just like a jigsaw puzzle and he’s like a champion you’re amazing super horror bro
So basically, she’s still trapped in a loop.
The doll is just almost like Flowey
it is
You got to play Sally Face! It's one of my favorite games ever. I think you'll enjoy the mysteries and the characters in the story ^-^
I love the music you use during your lore video, what is the track?
2:58 Looks like a bowling ball lmao
i saw markplier playing this game like 2 years ago, I've always wanted to know the lore ty!!
at the very first moments of Melody playing the piano , it sounded like the soundtrack from the movie 'UP'
Superhorrorbro. In the next video can you talk abaut the problem abaut the development of bendy and the dark revival?
6:00 Not really, because if you kill the neighbor they remember
