    i think the most disturbing part of mandela catalogue is how the police are trained to lie to emergency callers. for a brief moment, these victims would've felt some relief at the thought of rescue until they slowly, slowly started to realise that no one was ever going to help them.

    I've seen a lot of comments drawing attention to the fact that Cesar doesn't seem terribly concerned about his mother apparently being attacked. I can sort of understand this, though it could also be passed off as Cesar doing his best to stay calm in a tense event such as this. Mark's underwhelming reaction could simply be a result of this-- emotionally detaching from an already delicate situation.
    What is even more of a dead giveaway, however, is the fact that there's no noise in the background. If Cesar was truly on his way to the ER (presumably with his injured mother), then there would be background noise-- the whirr of a car's engine, or even the wail of sirens and the voices of paramedics, if he was accompanying his mother in an ambulance. Noise filtering exists for some phones, of course, but these things tend to be rather hard to drown out, or at the very least, some indication is given that said sound is being filtered.
    All of this simply serves to cofirm the fact that, yes, "Cesar" is indeed lying in wait in the silent house of the real Cesar to ambush his hapless friend.

    There is a real medical condition where something in your brain glitches, your recognition or something, causing you to get a super uncanny feeling seeing a particular loved one (usually). You both recognize them as someone you love, but also see them as a stranger. This causes sufferers to adamantly believe their loved one has been replaced by a clone by some force, usually aliens, and this triggers a fight or flight response. Paranoia and such soon follows and the relationship breaks down. It's actually super sad, and almost always leads to divorces etc. I dont think this is based on that, because that would be kinda messed up, but I am super reminded of that from this. *EDIT:* It's called _"Capgras delusion"_

      Perhaps... maybe it is up to interpretation? Though I thought it said "no one came for me" and due to it looking like a suicide, I could see either happening. A suicide, or a murder covered up. To me, since he said he didn't want to see what was on the other side and grew desperate from being stuck for days and losing hope with no one coming to help, he could have done it himself, but he also yelled at it while it laughed, and a gunshot, so he could have tried to kill it and it got him first. I think the murder is most likely. The "nobody came for me" at the end to me feels like he was upset that nobody helped him and he died alone.

    Why analogue fear is scary:
    Analogue fear mostly use sounds and pictures to make us fear. Most important thing about pictures are they make you feel like they are old. With this way your brain convinces it self it's real and also because pictures aren't very clear it makes you disturbed of the unknown fear. Also pictures we see (alternates faces etc.) Are not natural. As you can see video informs us that alternates can look different than normal humans. This makes us fear since we don't know what to see when we are going to face an alternate. At this point your imagination makes you fear...

    Doppelganger story, here goes. I was 16 working my first job in the mall. Ppl around my age kept coming up, approaching me by another name. After the fourth or fifth person told me we look exactly alike and asked if we were twins, I knew it had to be true but wasn't too obsessed with it. I just knew it was another dude who looked like me, was the same age, and the high school he went to. One day, I looked across the mall and spotted him. Immediately knew it was him. He was talking to some girls and I can't remember why he approached the counter I was working at, whether I motioned him over or he came on his own, but he approached and the resemblance was uncanny. Like looking at an extremely precise rendering of yourself. It was awkward but we both played cool, saying that we knew each other's names and how so many ppl had told us about each other. We asked questions trying to figure out if there was maybe some relation but nothing added up. It was like looking at yourself, not a twin, a slightly different version of yourself. We had our hair the same length, very long. We dressed basically the same. I felt like I was the dominant, more "confident" of us two, for all I know that's how he felt. It was weird so we pretty much wrapped up the convo and he walked away. Didn't give it much thought or tell anyone after for a long time. The weird thing is I never heard about him or saw him again. I did some searching over the years, but nothing, no online accounts or anything. It's been decades since then and never heard another thing about him. But the craziest part, that hit me later on, my mother would tell me one of those mom stories about when I was born. My birthday coincides with a specific name, and she was gonna name me after it. But near the end of the pregnancy she chose something else. His name was the one she was going to name me. Can't make it up.

      For Trolls only survive for as long as they get attention, show not what makes you mad, but ignore their preaches.
      Besides, even if what they say is (doubtly) true, I guess they have a visitor waiting for when they reach their 70's, or 80's, or 90's, etc.
      not gonna say the obvious reply of "kys" to such people who played too much fortnite who just search up "generic old people" for their pfps, for that would contribute to their reasons for continuing in their own (terrible) reason for tomfoolery.
      Or behind their screens they do mourn the death of Sean's father, but they 'mourn' digitally because a simple LED Screen, a plastic shell, and a fake name is all it takes to become anonymous.
      But, enough of my ranting, might go play Warframe or Calibre.
      To you, Jedi and OP, I wish your days to be well, but to the trolls (both current and future) who stalk the comments saying the same exact thing, I wish their 8th McDonalds Sprite refill to be watered down.
      But it does make me ponder, How? How can they stay up all day and night just playing to every comment with the same 3 things they keep in their notebook? I'm genuinely intrigued.

      I think it makes sense, humans tend to feel safe with others. Alex (Dev) made it so that you, young or old, feel the same fear, you know? The fear of seeing something wit huge arms running towards you with an evil smile, i mean sorry that must have scared us both. I just think about Alex editing a photo of himself and it ends up becoming the beginning of his series or something ironic.

    Psychological horror is honestly the most terrifying form of horror in my opinion. Jump scares are fun here and there but they only scare you once. I’ve watched the Mandela catalogue multiple times and I’m terrified to sleep each and every time. Psychological horror is a slow burn that hits its peak when you feel most vulnerable

      Theory Time:
      In the Overthrown Video, Lucifer apparently replaces Gabriel, as we can see no wings the second time.
      And in the bible, it's stated that Lucifer is a "fallen angel," or one that has no wings.
      However, that doesn't mean Gabriel is dead. Now, he's back, and trying his best to fight off the alternates.
      In the second one, we can see that the old lady's house is the same as Mark's house. This could possibly mean that Gabriel has succeeded by keeping them in one house.
      However, because of Jonah running away(fun fact, that also happened in the bible), it allowed the Alternates to get away from the house.
      So, Jonah ducked things up. Screw you, Jonah.

    That's the thing about it that makes it fascinating. It builds a supernatural layer to a VERY real possibility: intrusion. People breaking into someone's house for the sole purpose of taking someone or causing them harm? That happens in real life, but the "alternates" and their lore give the idea that something inhuman could do the same thing; that you don't have to worry about people breaking into your home, but something far worse.

    For anyone who's new to this community, here's a small guide.
    First of all, there's something called an ARG, which stands for Alternate Reality Game. The idea is that you are provided with something along the lines of found footage (videos, a social media account, a website, etc.) and then it's up to you to put the puzzle pieces together and figure out what's going on in that universe. ARGs differ in terms of genre, some are horror-based and others are more conspiracy or true-crime based, and they differ in content, some are more of a catalogue of evidence while others consist of an active social account of someone basically role-playing and interacting with users trying to figure out the story. Analog horror (which the Mandela Catalogue is) is basically an off-shoot of this. It's found-footage horror based around analog systems such as emergency broadcasts and VHS tapes and they very often have ARG elements to them.
    There are often accounts that make theories and breakdowns about these ARGs, such as Night Mind, Wendigoon, Nexpo and many more but you are always encouraged to show the creators some love. It kind of depends because some creators will not have a CZcams channel with all their content on it but rather have information scattered across the internet, so they're more difficult to figure out for yourself.
    There are quite a few famous ARGs in the community but these are just a few you can check out if you're interested:
    - Gemini Home Entertainment: short guides, documentaries or adverts distributed by the Gemini Home Entertainment video company which depicts a world where things have gone terribly wrong.
    - The Monument Mythos: mixes analog horror with alternative history as it shows an America where unexplainable events occurring near national landmarks like the Statue of Liberty or Mount Rushmore change the course of history and reality itself.
    - Local 58: footage from a public access TV channel which is continuously hijacked over a period of decades with a series of broadcasts of ominous and surreal videos
    - Anomalies: found footage from two roommates who are terrorised by paranormal activity in their apartment
    - The Walten Files: animated VHS tapes from a children's restaurant with animatronics with a dark history (inspired by FNAF)
    - Paranormal Paranoids: found footage from a paranormal investigation team that went missing
    - Crow 64: a lost Nintendo game created by a videogame developer going through mental torment after the death of his daughter
    - Hi I'm Mary Mary: videos uploaded by a girl living alone in a house with different creatures in it that come out at night

    - The Sun Has Vanished: a Twitter account detailing their life as a person on Earth where the sun has disappeared
    - Alantorturials

    For anyone wondering:
    The binary caption that Sean paused on says this,
    "I am the Savior. I must reverse this delusion."
    when translated.
    The angel could be talking about himself, saying that he is a “savior,” or maybe he is addressing “God/a higher power.”
    Note that, while there are commas in binary, the captions used a period. I don’t know if that means anything, or if it was just written for a dramatic effect of some kind.
    Edit: I found that I missed some of the binary! Sorry! It’s fixed now. :)

      I watch horror movies and the like pretty frequently, I don't tend to scare easily, but the face she made in the first episode (Last one Jack watched) really deeply unsettled me, and throughout the rest of the series I was watching the videos through my periphery because I was so scared something would jump out. Nothing ever does, really, it's just the anticipation.
      I do think this is PEAK horror - but like all horror it's only effective if you let it be. You've gotta be in a headspace to be scared, and you have to kinda surrender yourself to fear for it to work. I can't name a single movie that remains scary if you don't get into it's headspace.

    If anyone is wondering what the code on "Overthrone" is. It's actual binary, it translates to "I am the one true savior. I must reverse the delusion. Joseph is next." Pretty creepy stuff. I spent 5 minutes translating the code, hoping it meant something, and it was pretty worth it. The text is split up by "I am the one true savior." "I must rev" "erse the delusion." "Joseph is next". I hope some of you have found this interesting as well! Take care of yourselves!

      You could have put it in a binary translator online. Didn't haven to translate it yourself

      @@Nerdgirl9853 That's what I did. But, because of the limited amount of characters/words/spaces/numbers that you can put into subtitles on CZcams, the subtitles would keep switching, so I had to decode each line three times since it was shown only three times. And I believe there's a certain amount of binary that you can have for one line since each string is one letter.

    I'm glad horror games and stories are starting to turn away from the cheap loud sound to cause scares and instead cause psychological dread and fear in someone despite nothing actually happening in things like these. This is an excellent concept that definitely deserves a game at the very least, and a movie and the very most.

    • @bri_b9751

      Same jumpscares are cheap scares, they’re good for only a couple of seconds of fear but these kinds of psychological scares really keep you thinking about it for days. THATS the kind of horror I’m excited to see more of.

    With good story telling, a hint of suspense with, a dash of old school horror and a little pinch of no major information you end up with the recipe for a fantastic experience.
    Creators of the The Mandela Catalogue have done a great job and I sincerely hope they keep going.

    never have I felt so disturbed watching the Mandela Catalogue, it's crazy how with simple warping of the human body can it just hit you psychologically, fearing that it can actually *happen* to you in real life.

      is called the Uncanny Valley, some how many years ago, our brains pre programmed fears, spiders fire height darkness, those were really a treat to the primitive humans, but some time ago, our brains develop another fear, fear to something resembling a human but clearly isnt, you brain catches it, but your eyes see that is a human but it isnt, that fear is what MC is trying for what i gather to explore and how just by manipulating photo can lead to really frightening experiences
