- Have you been dreaming again? Or has the staff at Arkham Sanitarium helped dredge up an old forgotten memory from the dark and dusty cellar of your subconscious?
Whatever the source of this imagery may be, it appears that you find yourself with a fellow undergraduate student at Miskatonic University. You and your classmate have been charged with the task of examining some of the rubble that was brought back from an archaeological expedition to the Himalayan mountains.
You are merely an observer here, as your counterpart does most of the work examining, collecting samples and taking (strange) notes of the various types of ancient gravel and stones retrieved from amid the cyclopean ruins found bordering a vast rift deep within the aforementioned mountains.
Towards the end of this observation, it appears that your colleague (classmate, or... professor?), along with the help of your own memories or voices whispering in your head, unearth a strange artifact, be it idol or effigy. It bares the same resemblance to the blasphemous creature found among the other prized collections at the university, which has been given the name: Cthulhu.
Unfortunately by this time, you either cannot recall any further details of this memory or dream, or you are merely too tired to find what has become of the artifact, and you...

What is ASMR? It is both a sensation and a medium.
ASMR stands for Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response and is the current, non-scientific name given to the feeling characterized as a pleasurable tingling sensation felt in the head, scalp, back and other regions of the body in response to visual, auditory, tactile, olfactory, and/or cognitive stimuli, such as crinkling bags, hand movements, whispering, personal attention or watching someone perform a task. It's like goosebumps, but much more pleasant.
ASMR videos are meant to intentionally help induce this sensation, also referred to as "tingles", but also provide a relaxing, calming, soothing, therapeutic and even entertaining experience for the viewer.
Many people who do not experience ASMR still enjoy the videos for their calming and sleepy effect. - Zábava

Do you guys ever think H.P. Lovecraft would've ever believed his horror stories would one day be used to make moving pictures to help people sleep?
Probably I know I loved his work I was smarter when I was 10 so I unberstoob most of it
Zane Walker Dont claim that sou were smarter if you cant even spell understood right
I honestly felt that the mountains of madness was his best work. That or a shadow through time.
I think he would have been pleased. Lovecraft had a lot of sleep problems (night terrors, sleep paralysis, that sort of thing), and he often wrote about sleep and dreams, so he would have liked the idea that his stories would eventually inspire some of these “moving pictures” that help people relax and fall asleep.
Valkarie Stoze At the Mountains of Madness is definitely his best work. My personal favourite is The Colour out of Space though. The Shadow out of Time is seriously underrated too, I think you’re the first person I’ve come across who has even mentioned it.

Yo, Uncle E, those scribbles in the journal actually looked like a form of ancient text... Another Lovecraftian video using them, maybe teaching us to use them would be awesome. They don't even have to be logical, just scribble them out and we won't be the wiser.
I already have plans. Soon...
Is this the only reply e has ever made?
Maybe

@@techno9117 haha yeah one time i mentioned listening to some of his tracks on spotify and he told me he loved me 😂 i wish i remembered what video the comments are on!
As an unearthing professional myself, I can say for a fact this is how we actually work on the field.
Instead of using real languages, we whisper words that are hard to understand. Due to this fact, we often just assume what the other person is talking about.
And, despite popular belief, we don't actually dig up relics in the ground! We use sandpits and place the relics in there, only to dig them up moments later. It gives us a false feeling of accomplishment.
Anyways, great video. I'll show it to all my friends.

It's crazy cool how you quickly write that ancient language on the fly like that.

I have created my own alphabet that I use. I'm hoping to make a proper language for it some day, but currently I just use it as a cipher for english.

Im not a big fan of chihuahuas but i like small dogs because they weight less and the big dogs when they get too excited make me a little bit scaried and worried but not big deal
Wow thats so interesting, my grandma doesn't have a chihuahua
Wow that pretty cool, I don’t have a grandma.
Who would have thought Cthulhu was a The Punisher fan...
I like to think he’s in his driveway under a box with a flashlight recording this video
I still be watching your old content regularly, all of your videos are just too good to listen to for a last time
I want more rift world lore
This is most likely the expedition Prof.Clemmons and Margaret go on to the Himalayas.

Would love to see anther video with stone arrangement like that again
Your video made me go insane. Thanks a lot!

something about the way he has those slight clicks while inaudible whispering is just so relaxing
still coming back to this one after 5 years. Truly splendid
This is one of my favorite video's that you've made. I love the near inaudible whispering you're doing where I can catch a few words here and there but most is low and unintelligible. Reminds me of your "The Art of Quiet" videos. I would like it if you did more of these kind of videos. I noticed there was some of this same kind of whispering in your latest Easter video too.
It's weird to think that in another universe ASMR would be people yelling at you and making annoying sounds.

Yasssssss! Me, too! I was napping to Lovecraft on HorrorBabble just this afternoon! 😁
Lovecraft is a legend 💖
Moira Burden Do you have any recommendations for my first Lovecraft book?
@@OneStarfish Herbert West Reanimator, The Hound, The Horror at Redhook, or The Call of Cthulu would be my recommendations. Be aware that while Lovecraft was a master of the genre and his impact upon subsequent writers is undisputable...he was also hugely racist. Go in with open eyes. He was a brilliant writer, but a massively flawed human being.
My all time favourite asmr video, never fails to help me fall asleep if I can’t find something new to listen to, the notebook bit and Cthulhu speak is just 👌🏻
same, its my go to
For some reason I don't get tingles from any of ER's videos EXCEPT the Cthulhu ones- that's not to say I don't watch every single one anyway and find them very relaxing and creative :p. Tingles on this one are great already!
Then your brain must have an Inaudible/Unintelligible fetish when it comes to ASMR :D
Our dark lord and punisher Cthulhu does bring some good ASMR to the table, to say the least
Blimington Bear same lol, no idea why tho...
Blimington Bear perhaps the dark lord Cthulhu has cursed you
Tomato well er's Cthulhu asmr makes it harder for me to sleep or relax to...
At this point I'm just watching to see if I'm just biased against er due to my anxiety with comments
This isn't helping is it
I really love the whispering in this video 😴
It is really soothing isn't it?
Me too
Me too
NO ITS CREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEPY😨😱😨😱😱😨😨😱😨😨😱😭😭😭😭
Still coming back to this, timeless.
I've listened to this so many times, trying to count would be pointless. I want to let you know this is one the absolute best ASMR vids out there. The subtle sounds of your voice, the pebbles, the scratches, makes a perfect combination of tingles. I love it.
I've been listening to a fair amount of ASMR for about 3 years now, and this video is easily in my top 5 favorites of all time. Everything in here is superb, both the audio and video.
Seeing these videos in my subscriptions box always makes me smile
Ditting profile image,
Ditting indeed...
Slotzoffun Lewis seems like the type of guy who watches ASMR
seeing these videos in your subscription box fills you with determination.
One of my favourites. Lots of gentle sounds in this
i love this description so much omg. every peek inside this man's head is to be treasured.
This is Very simple ASMR, however there's something about it which is just so soothing. Is it just me or does anyone else find certain levels of Lovecraftian Horror, Relaxing?
That description box... is...
Bruuuuuuhhhhh it was the expedition that Clemons went on omg.

It's been two years since this video came out and this is still by far my favorite asmr video ever.
It’s crazy that I still find myself coming back to this video. Something about it just knocks me straight out.
At first I thought that the video was in R'lyehian but then I realized that it was just very inaudible and unintelligible. :D
I really enjoyed reading your description of the video ER
Before the camera focused I thought it was a pile of teeth...
Ryan Casaday that would have made a much more "interesting" video.
wut
Same
Ryan Casaday same
Eww
This is the best asmr video period. I constantly revisit it
This was one of your most soothing and imaginative videos for me. The whispered ramblings and delicate object examinations of your crazed academic who's gentle and relaxed manner engendered a sort of hypnotic relaxation. Love the bizarre Lovecraftian undertone.
I just had to say this since I’ve been watching this channel for about 2 and 1/2 years now. THIS video. This one video has always WITHOUT FAIL made me sleep. Having bouts of insomnia brought on by stress can really effect me hard but ever since this video came out it has this magical ability to just cannon-fire me into slumber. I never get more than 10 minutes into the video before I’m knocked out.
Thank you Rift. From the bottom of my heart I really wanna thank you for always making amazing content and helping this night owl catch some Zs
The writing with inaudible was greatness.
yes my dude
Who knew loose gravel was so tingly? Not even 30 seconds, the video starts and I instantly get tingles.
Your videos are so imaginative! I love the mystery, humor, and/or narrative you weave into these. Best asmr.
ER is the only ASMR’tist that gives me tingles have been watching for about a year now get tingles every time 🤤🤤 love all your vids I believe I have watched them all and look forward to future videos
Ping-pong-ball-on-rocks is my new favorite sound.
This is the only channel I listen to while I try to sleep or relax. Ephemeral Rift is so creative and out of the box! You can find almost anything you like here. This channel deserves to have more attention.
To this day one of the best asmr videos ever made
I feel like the video is watching me
I read the title as unearthing a chihuahua relic.....
Sassy The Sasquatch you silly sausage you
Wtf tho xD
Callum Gallagher that would make for a funny movie
chilled gaming ill pay to see that
wow
3:44 "Professor Clemons"
I'm sure there's a ton of references to riftworld in here, but I fall asleep too soon to hear them all
Just want to say that I've watched all of your videos and they're all amazing! I love Dave, the Arkham Sanitarium and especially the face huger series; LOVE THEM! So keep it up! ; D

I haven't listen or watched ASMR vids in awhile... this is like a breath of fresh air
This is my favorite asmr video. Thanks !
this is now a very old video, but at 3:45 exactly (you may want to go to 3:44 so it isn't cut off at all) i KNOW i heard "professor clemmons," if i remembered how to spell his name correctly
the lore continues...
update: am hearing things like "expedition," "geometry," "strange disturbances," "short term memory," & something about how the gravel/sand/rocks might be minerals or salt?? "listen closely," "the old ones," & then later quite close together: "take heed & pay attention," "take one step," "these warnings are important, you understand"
these are all very interesting comments that i've picked up.. intriguing
if anyone has anything to add, i'd love to hear it
Holy crap!!!!! This might be a very l8 comment (hey I started reviewing a little to late anyway) but this is single handedly the best asmr I’ve seen and heard in a long time. The writings good the rocks/ hands rubbing against each other is good. And especially the gibberish audio over the video. Absolutely beautiful my man E. R. absolutely beautiful. 10/10 would listen to again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again.🍊
5he same I can't believe the perfection of the video it's CRAZY

This one gets me every time man. So good!

Great video, ER. Thanks for uploading!
One of your best yet!!
We've made it, my friends. Now that you're early, what would you like? A tingling sensation? crinkling rocks? A passport?
Oh my I just tingled! Or almost! It's like the very first time after like two/three years of asmr! I'm almost cured! Thank you so much!
The most tingly I`ve felt yet, great vid!
