Watch the rest of the series here: • The Scarlet Lake Tapes...
Sheriff Matthews' yearly assembly. At first Matthews presented it himself. Now the teachers just play the tape.
Now with an original soundtrack (/o0o\) composed by megarurp. We tried to make this one more like the classic analog horrors, hence the stick figures. We still hope you enjoy!

What's unnerving is the idea that there isn't a monster involved, but rather a serial killer who may be secretly working on the Stay SAFE videos, putting in taunting messages just because they can. It's a very mundane, but also extremely real, kind of horror.
Bingo. Exactly what we are going for in this whole series.
even worse, this can happen in real life. stay safe on socials kids!
@@creativetoadproductions217 i like these types of horror. They don't have cheap jumpscares but they are nice and unsettling and not so scary that I piss my pants
@@harleythedawg8274 that sounds like something my dad would say
At 6:12, the message reads: "I couldn't save them. There are no monsters. Don't end up like them. Stay safe. I will keep you safe."
Does that refer to a moral thing, where the tentacle guys are benign, or is it a Scooby Doo hoax involving serial killers or something? Or are tentacle people reasonably integrated into society, or are merely a sort of known wildlife, and the tentacle guy strung up like that is a depiction of a dead guy that won’t be censored by CZcams? Is it expected that some number of the viewers to be tentacle people?
*psst psst* It's not a tentacle.

“The sheriff isn’t listening. The sheriff can’t hear you. The sheriff can’t save you.” Was the best analog horror line i’ve ever heard. It’s as if a killer hid that there. This whole thing is both educational and a little frightening but i love it.
Thanks! (Why are people saying this is educational? We literally just made up all the advice lol)
Or, the sherrif IS the killer.
@@dwaterson21let me guess the person was African American the sheriff is racist
Or this is not the sheriff and also, stay “sane” has you not getting help
Pretty good for a criminal
@@pandoratheclay actually no. The reasons for getting help is bc who is more likely to hear you? The criminal close to you? or your parents down the street
I genuinely love the unsettling "scare" that was "stay sane" implying maybe some sort of phycological threat? Or maybe an eldritch horror, but instead it has a logical explanation, thus, subverting expectations but leaving an air of unsettling uncertainty!
Could you explain what exactly it has a logical explanation mean? I am curious about that.......but I particular don't understand your point.....
@@guilhermeleandro6039 oh what i mean is, Considering this is horror you'd expect something like "are you losing your mind?" Or some sort of scare when ot mentions sanity but instead it incorporates "Sane" pretty normally into it, idk if this makes sense tho (what ik typing out :P)
if i have to stay sane im already dead.
@@wapdles undertandable, same
For me personally, my favorite part was the one about staying quiet bc 'someone will hear you. But not who you want.' So simple, but so chilling, especially when paired with the cut in the music
I honestly think this video is a shining example of how music can totally create the atmosphere if used correctly. The little quiz show segments where the background music is just these low piano notes against a droning beat made my skin _CRAWL._ Lots of analog horror tends to either gravitate towards either ominous silence or distorting happy music, but I think that this video shows that music that’s outright menacing by itself can work while still maintaining the “simple” and “novel” nature that makes analog horror so popular.
Thanks! Music and sound are both really underappreciated parts of analog (and normal) horror. We know you shouldn't praise your own work, but one detail we really like are how the drums degrade between the 'games' and 'lessons'. If you'd like to hear some of the guy that does our music's 'professional' music, check out his new album: gamejolt.com/games/ALBUM2/849531
good series, doesnt rely on cheap jumpscares, no over the top screaming, just the uncanny feeling as unorchestrated noise fills your ears and the dread of knowing.. you did not 'stay SAFE'
All because of that damn sherrif
@@subwaysammichguy Someone's catching on....
God please help this is genuinely unsettling the more i watch, maybe im weak nerved but i am actually..scared :'D
@@creativetoadproductions217 Please make this more scarier with screamers and THX
That would sacrifice d'art!
As a person who gets scared real bad with normal horror, analog horror makes me feel like I’m watching something without being scared. 😭
Truth
This analog horror video is actually really creative and more releastic compared to the other video series like this. It has no monsters or anything supernatural in the video, just situations that can actually happen in real life. It has no jumpscares or anything you can find in those crappy analog “horror” videos but it somehow gives you that very eerie feeling and you feel more uncomfortable and uncanny. The fact its more releastic makes it even scarier as in some scenarios can happen/already happened in real life. The video also not only has horror, it has some comedy to which is quite rare to find in a lot of videos like this.
These series are amazing! Keep it up.
Yeah, hehe... I think that how grounded it is messes with most expectations of analog horror. Most people seeing an analog horror called "Stay SAFE" with a stick figure on the cover would probably think it had to do with some unoriginal monster or something. Most people are happy it's something better ;)
@@creativetoadproductions217I love the solid setting, the humour, it makes it all feel so.... Real..!!!
For those who are questioning what the final message is, its
"I COULDN'T SAVE THEM THERE ARE NO MONSTERS DON'T END UP LIKE THEM STAY SAFE I WILL KEEP YOU SAFE"
Thanks it was pretty fast
I haven't watched the scarlet tapes yet but the "you can most likely defeat a preschooler" makes me feel someone did defeat a preschooler
And quite effectively, I may add.
@@creativetoadproductions217what.
At 6:12, it says, "I couldn't save them. There are no monsters. Don't end up like them. Stay safe. I will keep you safe."

I love how the music stops at 1:08 because of how the playful tone quickly shifts into a dead serious moment
The Sheriff’s spirit and regret remained in the tape. If this is in SCP-verse, the tape would have been confiscated, declared Safe, and locked deep somewhere.
Highly appreciate the lingering spirit angle in this!
The 'regret remaining in the tape' idea is super cool! We didn't really intend that in this video, but I guess you could see that if you take a different angle on the lore.
Ngl SCP fans when they see unrelated horror property
For some reason I *really* like how it says fighting is still an option. The killer is still human after all. The odds of winning aren’t very high but still non-zero.
That actually makes it more scary because if it says “you cannot fight this being” sure that’s terrifying but does kinda seem unrealistic.
I guess in a cringier analog horror it would be like Fight = ERROR or something dumb like that lol
@@creativetoadproductions217 i mean if it was just ERROR and a flash of the word FATAL is what would be even more dumb so then yes but you have made an ERROR is far better and fits in more with the psa theme
I love how it’s actually realistic!
Great job!!
Holy hell, real horror that isn't "le supernatural le epic monster with "YOU WILL DIE"" message?! Seriously, I love this. It's grounded in reality, has some light humor, and is actually unnerving. The way it's composed makes it seem like some killer is taunting people via these tapes.
It's a new breakthrough in stick-figure analog horror ;)
5:22 "does this person look safe?" NAH BRO THAT'S FUCKIN WILLIAM AFTON😭
He always comes back.
This is an amazing change of pace from most analog horrors still got uneasy on some parts so it is still a horror
We did try to make this one like the classic 'slow' analog horrors like czcams.com/video/zQOqvcluIQQ/video.html .
always a good sign when the first step is to stay sane
Is it too high of a bar for you
@@creativetoadproductions217 yeah
At 2:23, it says, "but sometimes you never know" if you were wondering. Also idk if this was intentional or not, but the same person with the knife at said time is later seen again in the situation thing as the person holding the knife.
That's not intentional (all stick figures kinda look the same lol), but nice find!
I like how blunt this is and just goes completely unsettling, no foreplay at all. We are here to feel mildly unsafe in our own homes, damn it!
Omg I love how the background score pauses at the creepy parts.
"But not who you want." *silence*
...
OMG, thank you so much. I'm working at a summer camp with 3 year olds right now and I need to make sure they are always safe. They were so thankful for this video, some even cried!
"I hope all of you learned fomrthing from this lesson!"
Yeah, we need a new Sheriff.
Something about vhs tapes just gives the chills. Even if there isnt anything wrong with them. You portrayed it perfectly.
I love it, I really don’t like jumpscares so seeing an analog horror without them was really fun, also I would die to a preschooler
All these kinds of videos give me a weird feeling, not just jumpscared just a really uneasy feeling
I love how the sheriff has sense of hearing same with me

"You can most likely fight off a 4 four old"
Bro be starting a Prechool UFC here.
As a fellow Analog horror creator, it's always good to see some inspiring ideas!
First rule of Fight Club is...
This is excellently put together along with the rest of the series, but I’m also laughing at the idea of someone fighting a preschooler instead of just shoving past them, asking them to move out of the way, or calling the teacher over
Unfortunately it what situation do u fight you put it instead of in ok
I just fucking love how this legit just says “beat the kids” in fof question 2
"Dose kids bout to get clapped"
The fact this could be some education video for schools but still weird and frighething at the same time is so sick
5:23
Normal person: No, absolutely not.
Psychopaths: He might thinks he's safe, but he's not, because I have a gun.
the creepiest part about this (besides the music) is that it could actually apply in real life
if anyone’s wondering what it said when it glitched at 2:24 , it said “but you never know.” with the person’s arm bent in an odd way.
Their arm isn't bent, but holding something.
@@creativetoadproductions217 holy crap
@@nordicwhispersIt’s a knife!!!
I like the implication that there is no monster, no supernatural creature, only a murderer that seems to have made the tape himself to taunt future victims. Either that or the sheriff was murdered and his soul is desperately trying to help others as it's trapped in this tape. Either way, great job
Your honor, in my defense, those preschoolers were very harsh with their words.
You overestimate my ability to throw hands with preschoolers
I still feel like those are some good tips for staying safe more than anything. Even if you think calling for help in a situation where someone could be close enough to hear might be good, it can also be the perpetrator hearing you
stay traumatized, stay safe!
-sheriff
Loved this video, especially got me at 2:24 when I played it after pausing lol... Great work!
"Someone will hear you but not who you want" sent a chill down my spine.
"A swarm of preschoolers"
Me looking at the last preschooler before turning him into mushy ketchup:
"Stand Proud"
The amount of psychological teasing in this was overwhelming but so interesting
Edit: I think my favorite part (so far) is the “not safe” and “safe” areas. Anywhere can be “not safe”. Whether it was intended or not, it’s like the person behind the video added that playground more so as bait, seeing as children would automatically think it’s “safe”, they’re more likely to run towards it A) bc of common (sometimes childish) sense and B) the video advised them to. Great job on this, it’s awesome
Thanks! I (the editor here) think the oversimplification present in most PSA-type programming for kids is rife for both satire and horror. It is one of the biggest points of nostalgia for those programs. It's fun to exploit. :)
I was thinking the same thing because how many kids have been kidnapped because of strangers they met at a playground
6:13 that family guy death pose 💀
i always love watching vids like these where the monster gets ahold or makes the vids of how you should stay safe but there setting you up and this just makes it
4:49 GOD DAMN 💀💀💀
from the messages at 6:12 , i imagine this is a video portraying the guilt of the sheriff himself for one reason or another and now suffering with trauma and bad self esteem.
nice video!
I’m just finding all of this- I love your content man!! I hope you keep this series going
Hehehe.... Expect a new upload sometime this month... Qpttf A Tltvyphs Mbuk...
Good one man! I look forward to seeing your future works
No way a kid instruction tape scares me 💀
Jokes aside the omnious music every time the Knowledge section starts is a great build up
Thanks! We really did try on the music...
I had a thought. During the Stay Aware part, you could've had a picture that looked safe, but there was someone hiding in a bush or something, which would make it not safe. Then, as the words not safe faded in on the screen, the music would cut out, and it would just stay on the image for a bit, and then you hear running footsteps as the person who was hiding runs at the screen, but before they can reach it, it cuts to the "Good job everyone!" screen.
We actually tried to do that! But we were kinda bad at photo editing when we made this one... It didn't look good.
Going down the backrooms rabbit hole brought me to this video. Honestly this is EXACTLY what I've learned. Accept your environment and your situation, do your best to adapt to it and make peace with it. Don't attract attention, anyone who would help you knows that other threats heard you, if you're even a real person. If you hope to find allies, move quietly and quickly, and only attempt to speak to people you identify as non-threatening and that are within clear eyeshot so they will see and speak with you. Identify potential threats you come across as quickly as possible. Silently evade them. If you can sneak away undetected, do so. If detected, a few walls and repeated turns may put enough ground between you and it that the threat can no longer hear the little noise made by your sprinting, and lose you entirely. Do not stop evasive action when you presume you are safe. Continue to move as far away as possible. Repeat if such action inadvertently leads you to another threat. Sprint silently until surrounded by others who are willing and able to protect you. Educating yourself on what creatures may be friendly, malicious, and quick ways to distinguish if they have similar appearances. Only trust humans, or something that kills what is chasing you. Be educated on creatures that act friendly to lower your defenses for their malicious ends.
Remember... THERE ARE NO MONSTERS
This feels weirdly more like a comedy than a horror which might be intentional anyway. It was kind of fun playing along - there wasn't really anything TOO scary or even THAT out of pocket for what they would genuinely show children which adds to the realism but also takes away from the fear factor a little bit. As part of a road safety thing in my school, we watched real footage of a man dying after a crash - all you could hear was him gurgling on his own blood and struggling for air. Honestly think it would be cool if that kind of thing was implemented into one of these analog horror things, not showing REAL footage obviously but focusing on the sounds of a person dying because that video made me realise that the sounds can be more disturbing than the visuals.
Agreed! It's much harder (not to mention expensive) to do the "visceral" stuff in a way that makes sense. The truly god analog horrors use this limitation well.
This is amazing men, keep it up!! You make good horror
Bro this made me feel like I’m not alone and I’m shaking

Idk man but the music playing when a sample question appeared made me feel disturbed. it sounded like a dvd struggling to play as if the dvd was living or smth. I say analog horror is good when you can feel a sense of discomfort, and damn you did well on it :D

I love the “pause for discussion” bit. You don’t see it much in analog horror but I remember being creeped out as a kid when we were shown educational PSAs and they’d do the same thing. Something about the video telling the teacher what to do, or when they didn’t and it’d just hang there in silence for several seconds before moving on.
"I couldn't save them. There are no monsters. Don't end up like them. Stay safe. I will keep you safe."
*After the very very creepy message and a scary image..*
"GOOD JOB!"
2:23 the men behind the door was holding a stabbing knife. The text says "but sometimes you never know"
“If you chose fight.. ☺️”
“BRRRRINGDINGANGDING 👺👺”

I love that this is educational and also horror
One of my favourite analog horror’s
Thanks!
This is one of those videos where this can scare me at nights.
This is a perfect example of the use of music correctly, when its peaceful the music is peaceful when its intense its intense, it likes ur getting paranoid and anxious about the music choice when it move to another one instead of a peaceful one, like you dont know theirs a jumpscare coming or a really high pitch of a scream.
either way this is a good example of the use of music and a analog horror without any creatures, just pure guts and guess, Am i about to get jumpscared, Am i about to get scared? who knows the music is there.
Thanks! Sound design is a really big part of analog horror, and it's hard to do it well. One series that really excels at this (and everything) is Wormwood Institute. Amazing stuff.
2:18 Avoiding your parent(s)
4:08 BANK ROBBERY
As a child this guide helped me very much.
Seeing the message (I COULDN'T SAVE THEM THERE ARE NO MONSTERS DON'T END UP LIKE THEM STAY SAFE I WILL KEEP YOU SAFE) and seeing everyone suggest a serial killer, it gave me the *chills* to think, 'Did a serial killer repost this and the sheriff is a ghost, referring to how he couldn't save people and then got killed himself, sending the message?' God save me from lore.
