- Welcome back everyone... It's time for the next step to enlightenment. Time to get on the level. Today we are going to be exploring the world of Welcome Home, the most terrifying children's show that never existed.
Let me take you gently by the hand down into the depths of hell, where a house can become a home, and the home will never leave your heart. Follow along as Wally Darling and company learn about the world and what an interesting place it can be. Coolest ARG in a long time man, I'm excited to talk about it:)

Hi guys! And hi Dan! so, recently i opened my youtube and saw one or three videos of this arg, made by brazilians ( which i am too ), and i didn't even bothered myself to see it 'cause i'm not that interested in args anymore, but just by seeing you upload a new video i knew i had to click it just to keep up to date with your content, just thought it would be good for you to know that you're not only helping me with my english, but also it's very entertaining to listen to your insane madman talk while i clean the dishes :D
Cheers!
Happy to be of service, both to learning english and to insane madman talk:)

HOLLOW KNIGHT YEAH BABYYY
To everyone in the comments, if you're interested in Welcome Home PLEASE PLEASE **PLEASE** respect Clown's wishes for their character and their boundaries. So many people are already scaring the creator off because they will not respect Clown's wishes.
THIS THIS THIS. Come on folks, let’s try to give this fandom an actually good reputation and be respectful to the creator, because they’ve clearly worked so hard on everything so far and put so much love and talent into the work, the last thing anyone needs is for the fans to overstep and scare Clown away forever
Sorry if this comes off as rude or sarcastic, I promise I’m being genuine, but may I know if there’s any posts that you can link regarding Clown’s wishes? I’m having a bit of trouble finding them. /gen
I keep hearing this, what's going on exactly? I'm sorry, I do not follow Clown much
For the love of god yes, I'm so happy the vast majority of comments have been respectful and engaging but I highly recommend reading Clown's most recent tumblr posts and twitter posts to see where everything stands and what crosses the line.
@@Wren_C Be aware that there are a lot of people speading misinformation. You can a link to Clown's official tumblr in the video description, you can find all important info there.
oh god i’m so deeply hyperfixated on welcome home that the second i got the notification i stopped everything to go watch
We have you now... The cult deepens... The plot thickens.....
Same here
Same here tbh
same
@@danielprofeta Im pretty sucked in myself. The Cult Of Welcome Home
Please keep in mind it is not an ARG, it's a psychological horror art project.
I mean so far it’s at the very least including elements of ARGs/viral marketing campaigns due to it being so intractable with lots of hidden elements. I’m not sure where the line is between it still counting as an ARG or not but it does seem to still work similarly to one so far
For the record I’d still respect if the creator were to say no don’t call it that, I just mean it’s similar enough so far that it might not really hurt to call it one
@@N3RDYG0GGLES
From what I heard the creator did say it wasn't one. It shares similarities but it's meant to be viewed more than interacted with if I'm not mistaken.
@@N3RDYG0GGLES
And true but I don't call it that out of respect for the creator not wanting it called that.
it is an arg though
My favorite take I've seen on the audio of Wally singing is that the banging in response is actually Home responding to him, since Home can't talk, except for making sounds. That's why Wally says "That's good...I think." He doesn't fully understand what Home is trying to say.
Makes me think of a scenario where Wally and Home are the only ones left on the set, maybe waiting years for the crew to come back, but they never do, so he's left to sit in his house and try to communicate with it, because it's the only other thing with sentience like him. Maybe that's why it looks like Wally's worshipping Home. He's idolizing the only other thing that he can interact with. And a living house honestly sounds like the kinda thing you'd have to give sacrifices to to keep it appeased, but I don't know if Home is really a villain or victim.
But that's all purely the vibe I get from it, though, and may not be right. Guess we'll have to wait and see!
I love love love this
The banging actually says “I do” in morse code, which pretty much confirms this theory for me
Monster house???? 😮lol jk
Wally’s stale laugh always makes me die laughing
Ha. Ha. Ha.
One thing I was hoping you'd bring up was how Wally eats with his eye's, which was mentioned in a tumbler post, at first its cool until think about how he's always staring at the viewer
Oh no
Nah he just REAAAALLY likes eye contact
Brings a whole new meaning to eye candy
I’m so glad to have a comprehensive video on this. 99% of my exposure to it has been through 15-second out of context tiktoks and I’ve been so lost. Thank you
Watch the video by Nightmind if you want more info, there's so much already that goes into it haha
@@danielprofetaThanks! I’ll be sure to check it out next
Why do I like cute things that can scare the crap out of me? Oh yeah. I remember that Muppets episode. Scared of the dentist ever since. Hope all is well with you:)
An apple a day may keep the doctor away but invites the dentist to your doorstep..
so glad my fave ever horror content creator is covering my newest fave arg! ty for blessing us daniel
FAVORITE HORROR CONTENT CREATOR?? LET'S FLIPPING GOOO
@@danielprofetaOFC !! u cover Literally Everything i have an interest in and u word things in such a Distinctively fun n morbid way !!
@@asciidiot :):):)
I'm super happy you covered this!
Also, just a thing! I've heard that Clown doesn't like Welcome Home to be referred to as an ARG!
I did a bit of research and found that despite a lot of people saying both this and that Clown was doxxed, neither of them are true oddly enough. As it currently stands (as I understand it) multiple voice actors were recently hired for Welcome Home content and they have been referring to it as an ARG too, plus the way the media works is consistent with the definition of an arg (I think?)
I'm going to keep looking though, thank you for letting me know!!
Also thank you for watching
Yeah, I'm not sure where people are getting this from. Yes Clown has said that it hadn't been intended to be an ARG - as they're not even entirely sure what one is - but nowhere have they ever said not to call it one.
There's a very...opaquely religious flavor, to what we've seen so far. The almost cloyingly family-friendly facade hiding something darker, the manic overemphasis on love and being cheerful at all costs. Hell, look at the specific posture Wally is kneeling in--he's fucking praying! At an altar! An altar of an all-seeing monster that has him trapped and is watching him and others at all times. The creator even specifically warned that eyes and being watched will be recurring themes. Like how children are told God is always watching to make sure they don't sin. And then add in what you said about the shopkeeper guy,--is it possible Wally and his friends are being abused by clergy members?
I noticed that too, could make a whole video on the seemingly religious themes
It could be kneeling/praying, but also be *begging* which… could also fit the religious theme ig? But Clown themselves has said there aren’t really a lot of religious themes in the series (at least not anymore- old concept art from 2018-2020 has some prominent religious stuff, especially with Wally’s cross cufflinks and Baphomet pose, but these aren’t canon anymore!)
I'd imagine Frank's head being detachable and spinning as like some sort of running gag. Where whenever he gets upset (probably every episode) his head would spring up and spin as he yells about something. As an example I will now Wright a fanmade script for a segment
Frank knocks on the door of Home
Wally opens the door
Wally says "Oh hello Frank! How are you today?"
Frank replies "terrible. Absolutely terable"
Wally asks why and Frank replies with a generic problem he might have.
Wally tries to paint a picture for Frank but accidentally spills the paint on frank.
Frank's head springs up and spins as he shouts "WALLY! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE! YOU RUINED MY GOOD SHIRT!"
Wally then trys to apologize but Frank leaves in a rage before he can speak.
**His head will reattach after he exits the set**
The rest of the episode would be about raising money to buy frank a new shirt
So what do you think of my interpretation? If the people who made the ARG want to hire me for script writing I'm in! Making a real show out of this would be popular for sure.
As someone who has always been obsessed with puppet shows, and welcome home is the perfect thing for me to hyperfixate about, and I immediatly clicked when I saw you posted (9 hours later, I know). Keep making video’s man, you’re very neat :)
Rad and Awesome and Neato.
One show made with puppets had an episode that left me traumatized, it was called, "Wimzie's House" and basically had a cast of puppet children friends that would come hang out at the house of the main character, Wimzie, who lived with her grandmother.
The episode that traumatized me was the one where her grandmother was overwhelmed with the kids, and so decided to leave a fake version of herself behind and go out for the day.
So there is this fake grandmother puppet.. just sitting there on the couch.. with the puppet children wondering why she wouldn't respond to them. I didn't understand how they didn't think she was dead.
It took me weeks to get the vision of this "dead" puppet out of my mind every time I closed my eyes. And to this day, I still think about it sometimes, and still wonder why they thought it was a good idea to do this lol.
I've searched for the episode but can't find it. If someone can help me find it, you'd be considered The Best Ever™️ and I will send you a plaque that says so.
Dude…. Dude oh my god. I have been trying to find that show for YEARS. Literally so many years! I couldn’t remember what it was called but had some vague memories of it and was starting to think it was a dream because I couldn’t find it, THANK YOU
@N3RDYG0GGLES it was terrifying but I still watched it religiously as a child. Now we just have to find that specific episode. I think this is a job for reddit.. haha
This feels like the beginning of Candle Cove lmao
@daniel profeta oh jeeze.. if we can find that we can find anything lol
I've always loved kid shows from the Muppets era so this series has me in a chokehold. And another thing, I love saying "it's like having toothache all over his body" as you just STARE into the camera, has me rolling
"As above, So below. Get on the Square" as requested.
Heheheh
THAT MUPPETS SCENE! You unlocked a core memory 💀✨
I keep hearing voices...
I want to see more of this concept so badly! It has the same psychedelic, charming, yet unsettling vibes that the movie Yellow Submarine has. I love the character’s outfits and color palettes.
18:34 You're right, Welcome Home has inspired me a lot. I love to make colorful characters like Clown and it would be so cool if I could make a project like they have someday. I'm just afraid it'll be too similiar
There was an actual puppet/human show in the 1960s called HR Puf'n'stuf, which featured a living house. But that house was goofy and cute and didn't look like IT WANTS TO STEAL YOUR SOUL
its crazy how much fan art is already up for this
Oh yeah, it freaking blew up over the past couple weeks
puppets always scared me so bad as a child
in denmark, (i’m not sure if it was shown in other countries as well), we had a show called karius and baktus, basically two characters living inside the teeth of someone eating too much candy, using pickaxes etc. to make the cavities. my siblings thought it was funny, but my fear convinced my mom of throwing away the tape recording
Puppets really are terrifying
I can't wait to see where welcome home goes, it's got such a good base and potential for something really incredible
I;m really excited to see where we're taken next
I'm just glad that you were PBSd and Muppeted sufficiently 💯🌟🥳
I'm gonna say it.
Daniel, you're probably one of my favorite content creators ever, dude! You're funny, you're good at describing and going into depth with things, and you've covered a lot of my favorite things! Thank you and keep up your amazing work!! ❤❤
This is incredibly encouraging, thank you so much!
Welcome Home is absolutely one of my newest inspirations!
I am absolutely taking notes from Clown and their team and the ARG!!! This is genuinely awesome marketing, AS WELL AS PART OF THE STORY IN ITS OWN RIGHT!
Thank you so much for sharing this project!!!👍👍👍
It's truly amazing how well this has been made, the art is just stunning
oh my GOD, YESSS!!! ive started to get very interested in this through some friends so I'm so glad you made a video on it!! _just as im about to draw too??_ i m so happy
edit: i also appreciate your ramblings 👍🏾
Hope you like the video my friend, thanks for watching!! Have fun drawing, I love have many people in this community are artists, it warms my poor heart.
If you're an artist like the comment I'm replying to
Great theory.Definitely a “Haunted House”! Wally’s warning ⚠️ will save us! Enjoyed the video.
And what Pokémon character did you autograph?
I believe it was a Snorlax
Bro got traumatized from teeth. The worst part is that I get it
You have no idea...
1:34 haven't gotten far in the vid yet, but as soon as you mentioned the episode of the Muppet Show with Alice Cooper i got so excited because that was one of my absolute favourite pieces of media as a kid for some reason. i think it was like baby's first experience with any sort of spooky/alternative media in a way i found weirdly aspirational.
but yeah the toothache segment also kinda traumatized me lol i didn't get it and it made me uncomfortable
7:17 This specific wording of “Loving your neighbour” definitely has me interested. I’m not sure if it means something deeper and I’m probably reading too much into it but when you said that I kind of just side-eyed my surroundings because of the automatic recognition I have of that phrase.
LETS GOOOOOOO-- yaaay you finally covered it!! Thank youuu!!
Thank YOU my friend, welcome back to the channel!!
WELLCOME HOME! i adore the (not) childrens show and glad you are covering em
Thanks for watching, see you in the next video
im so glad you made a video about welcome home. im low key obsessed with it rn and this helped me understand everything better so thank you :)
Glad I could assist:)
Ayo!! I've been a hot minute since I watched one of your videos, so I'm so glad to see you covering this! I know this video is going to be good!!
What do you mean you aren't in a parasocial relationship and obsessively watching each and every upload?? Obvious federal agent if I've ever seen one.
Best Welcome Home video I've seen so far as in keeping me informed AND engaged. I've watched tons and I usually start spacing out pretty quickly and I have to rewind but you really kept my attention and made me laugh!
Hell yeah, thank you!!
bro... WHY IS YOUR VOICE ACTUALLY SOUND SO NICE AND SOUTHING TF
I can scream too. That should help.
@@danielprofeta yes, yes it would
HELL YEAHHHH! i was hoping you'd cover this! welcome home slaps and i'm happy seeing the fanbase is so active, it's filling the hole that DHMIS' new season being over left in my sad little puppet loving heart
edit: wally singing money machine OBLITERATED me lmao
FEEL SO CLEAN LIKE A MONEY MACHINE OH YEAH
YESSS!!! I absolutely love and am obsessed with this arg! I'm so glad it's getting the recognition it deserves!!
Right?? The creator deserves all the success in the world
A found footage/Vhs tape would be a great for this project
That's what I'm waiting for heheh
i was waiting for you to make a video on this, your arg videos are the greatest!!
Thank you my friend, I hope you liked it!!
Now I feel old. I watched the Alice Cooper episode during its first run. I loved how Alice turned Miss Piggy into a monster. And the big reveal - the bill for all of that F/X work. School's Out was awesome at that age.
I’m so glad your covering this, been meaning to get into it
Thanks for bringing this to my attention. It's delightful!
:) No problem, thank you for watching
beep beep!
friendly reminder : the creator of welcome home has said that Welcome home is not meant to be an arg, and would rather people not use that term for it!
thanks for listening in neighbor :]
Thank you!!
I love CZcamsrs who cover things like this. Been binge watching all of your vids since yesterday and love them. Fr gonna be big soon
I went down the rabbit hole of this ARG and oh my god there’s already fanart and fan audios and stuff.
17:01
i know he seems evil here but im pretty sure the "then stay quiet"
is a warning so home doesnt find out wallys talking to the viewer
You really open up great new horror content to me.
I try:)
It took all of my strength to not instantly click on this video as soon as I saw my very own brand new obsession character in the thumbnail. You do not understand the depths of which my brain had to reach in order to not scream over a picture of my brand new husband showing up in my feed instantly.
If it were not for forcing myself to do other things, and calm myself down, I'm pretty sure I would clicked on it without even reading the title.
Good video, I enjoyed it, keep it up. You do good work man 👍
Your husband was waiting...
Thanks for watching.
its like having toothache all over my body... great video!! i love your explanation and commentary :)
okay welcome home's spooky arg story is definitely very cool, like, genuinely,
but lets be honest. were all here because of wally's extreme cuteness and for looking at more wally art and fanart.
like, we all have a strong urge ro cuddle him right?
despite the maybe implications of horrors within him in the actual story?
but come on, hes just a weird puppet catboy at heart: @:3
ps: jokes aside, i was expecting this video.
like, you have so much videos on dhmis. this is only the next step.
very nice bideo on welcom homr 👍
yeah.. no
He’s been living in my mind rent free and idk what to do
Huh... Never looked at it quite that way, but you may be right.
YO!! I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR YOU TO MAKE A VIDEO ON WELCOME HOME! YIPPEE
I really enjoyed your series on DHMIS and I've been secretly hoping you'd make a video on Welcome Home! 🤩
Welcome back!
I’m surprised this isn’t bigger your content is really good
One day we'll rule the world.
Let’s hope as the world is very susceptible.
I really enjoy your content!!!
That makes me happy neighbor
Oh my god this has so much potential I love it already thank you
Thank you my friend, see you in the next video
im so excited that you covered this!!!!!
Hey, welcome back!!
I hadn’t heard about this and you’re the one to introduce this to me! So I’m excited for the rest of this video ✨
Welcome to welcome home. Hope you're feeling welcome.
@@danielprofeta feels just like home
I am excited for more coverage of Welcome Home!
Also: Big Bird is not schizophrenic! Snuffalapagus was proven to exist in the 80s!
This is very true, and it was an important point. However... The joke... I gots to haves the jokes
@@danielprofeta the joke was quite funny
Are you gonna be making a video about the new update? I love how they focus so much on character interactions in it!
Let's go! Glad to see more people talking about this website! :)))))
I'm so excited to see where it goes next
wally singing treehouse is sooooooo atmospheric an SOO FKIN COMMFORTABLE im melting
Love the video, you worked super hard on it and I’m very proud, great work babe :)
I love you, ttys, thanks for the amazing thumbnail
It took me about 5 years and lots of pushing from my friends to finally start publishing my web comic, worried that it would flop or I'd lose interest quick, but thankfully only a year and a half later, it is at half a k followers and I'm still very much excited to draw and write it. So yes, 100% I agree with you at the end! Just get started, it doesn't have to be studio quality
I don’t think the sounds in the background of the tape are footsteps- I think it’s home responding to Wally asking if he liked the song he’s singing to it
That makes sense
thanks for the explanation ive seen this everywhere on twitter and was so confused
Glad I could assist lmao
Dude puppets? Horror? AND IT'S AN ARG???
Count me in.
Welcome (home)
@@danielprofeta Bu dun ching
You have opened my childhood when i was little such good times
11:31 I love that a Shadow Fandub reference
The jack stauber reference in the intro made me happy
11:53 yeah, there’s a book called Dear, Deer I read in elementary school about Homophones, or words that sound the same. Thought I should bring that up. Cool video on the lore of Welcome home!
SO HAPPY YOU MADE THIS VIDEOOOO
I'm so happy people seem to be enjoying it, thank you for watching my friend
@@danielprofeta always ♥️ one day i’ll get ur autograph too lmao
the naming of the image, yknow the one, "so below" is very interesting to me because "as above, so below" is often used to refer to it will be on earth as it is on heaven or wtv, but im pretty sure the creator, Clown, said that they completely discarded the idea of religion playing a part in the storyline.
"Poppy is like big bird... If big bird wasn't a schizophrenic"
YAY! I LOVE YOUR CONTENT AND WELCOME HOME THIS IS PERFECT 🎉
Heheh, welcome back my friend, thank you for watching!
yes i was actually waiting for you to cover it
:)
I have that Muppets Alice Cooper special on VHS and it was sooo unsettling as a smol child
Glad I wasn't the only one
You posted this when I was a new follower, didn’t know about reading your description all the way to the end. So here as requested: As above. So below. Get on the square.
I look forward on what Clown has next for this series 🏠
See you there
@@danielprofeta Do you plan on looking at the Halloween and Christmas updates in the near future?
As Above,So Below.Get On The Square!
We are Legion
great video! i'm so glad that you've made a vid on this.
as above, so below. get on the square.
Thanks for watching!!
15:19 I think those are implied to be the sounds of Home, not footsteps, since it was mentioned elsewhere that Home communicates through creaks and bangs
That would make a lot of sense
TREEHOUSE BY ALEX G AAA!!!! I LOVE THAT SONG!!! Your voice is so nice dude
The Jack stauber reference>
LAOSAYAYYAEELCOMEHOMEWOOWOWKWOO
15:28 also I don’t think that’s footsteps it could be home ‘talking.’
I didn't even think of that, but it makes so much sense
0:14 I GET IT I UNDERSTAND THE JACK STAUBER REFERENCE
You really are the saddest little baby in the room.
at 15:38 you said it sounded like footsteps. Which it does in a way, but personally, I thought it sounded like somebody slamming those like window covers. Sense it’s speculated that Wally’s talking to Home, and, like you said earlier in the video Home, uses, monte Pias to expressed themselves
That Muppet Show bit explains everything about who you are now.
I love how he saying do our own thing right after he got done saying that a Markiplier ad popped up lol
Great example of someone why does their own thing lolol
If welcome home be turned into an animated series, it should be made by Jim Henson productions and I say that this version of welcome home should have absolutely NOTHING to do with all those stuff that would traumatize the kids.
It’s been a while sense I’ve been on your channel as iv been busy with my own and this video was a awesome one to get back on to your channel and I’m glad I did
What do you make on your channel?

SUBBING NOW
Welcome home is a curse and a plague to my twitter timeline and i HATE IT
I am speading the curse more haha, good luck.
Ok but that episode of the Muppet show is how I learned who Alice Cooper was and I watched it all the time! I was quoting the toothache thing right with you
Welcome to my nightmare...
youtuberul meu preferat pana acum
15:29 i think the "footsteps" here are actually bangs or some other sort of onomatopoeia, like how Home makes in response to statements.
I have to keep backing up to see all the details and captions😂
Details for days
First RemGames did a video, and now you? My favorite youtubers covering my favorite arg, very nice! :)
Welcome back to the channel, thanks for watching!! (love RemGames!!)
