songs logic **forwards** normal **backwards** scary

The legal version YOU MUST PAY THE PRICE TO GET THE REAL AUDIO

I think the pirated secret audio is what should have been played on the title screen when you got the bad ending. Gives you more motivation to beat the game and get the good ending in my opinion.

Fun fact: this audio also appears when you get the bad ending

If you join the devil’s team, you hear the menu theme in reverse. (Which is shown in the video...)

*I will never look at my cups the same way*

2:28 5:19 If you compare them to each other, you can start to notice that the pirated version is the same as the reversed menu song but in a deeper pitch

I love how this guy tries to make cute looking games as scary as possible Edit: HOLY FREAKIN' COW WHY IS THIS COMMENT SO POPULAR???

2:55 that's king dice laughing!

3:46 Mojang : why you copying me?

Teacher: did anyone learn a lesson? Me in the back: Don’t buy your cups off of Xbox or steam

“It wasn’t intended to be a horror game.” But what’s more horrific than a storyline about the devil collecting souls?

That spectrogram image has the devils last stage on the very right, the devils skeleton form in the middle, and then just the devil on the left

5:31 I think that says: “There be no finishing”

God I'm gonna have nightmares of that hidden picture in the hidden audio

2:29 A little correction: This tune isn't heard in pirated versions, this tune actually is hidden in the files.

Wait, that isnt the normal song? * Realises that i got the torrented version * *O h*

MDHR should have rickroll’d the torrenters and pirates by replacing all of the tracks in the torrented copies with Never Gonna Give You Up

This is actually the opening theme played in reverse and in a lower pitch, with the menacing laughter of King Dice faintly in the background towards the end of the track.

Fun fact: every single frame was hand drawn, although it would be faster if it wasn't, it helps give the old style.

The reversed song was creepy but I heard a sound.."woooooww" that just made me laugh😂

*sees title* Me: im a brave boi *hears first 10 seconds of pirated song* Me: IM NOT A BRAVE BOI

4:33 i feel bad for them, cuphead just wanted some money.

I have a theory about those weird sounds that plays after King Dice finishes laughing, I think those weird noises are the evil Cuphead and evil Mugman shooting their finger guns killing every living thing, serving the Devil and everything he commands them to do.

When I got the pirated version, I was freaked out. King Dice's laughter really showed out how creepy it is. And I was also freaked out by the Bad Ending menu music. That taught me to never pirate or make bad choices in video games.

3:53 those pictures in the audio, those are Devil. In order from left to right: Devil sitting on his throne with the pitchfork, Devil after he rips his skin off and continues to the next phase of his fight and the last one is Devil when you're fighting him really close to his head. And personally, I find that actually pretty damn cool how they did that!

Hooray to everyone who did the good ending!

3:05 The scary thing is it sounds like their saying "Help us".

this is the tune that should be played when fighting the devil

The file 666 is a reference to when you’re fighting a boss it will instantly end the fight at 6:66 Edit: omfg i made this comment 3 years ago and never realised the amount of likes, thanks! Edit 2: Current me has no idea what younger me was talking about, so forgive the lack of making sense

noticed how the bad ending's end credits is called "The End" while good ending is called "Closing Credits"

5:47 I chose the bad ending first so I could get it out of the way before the devil fight and everything he explained in the video actually happened. he wasn't lying lol

Uhh Bendy has also have a secret Scary main menu music To get the music audio (CREEPY) 1. Die in a random chapter 2. Quit to the main menu when you are in the inky abyss

that’s a way to scare off the rule 34 artists and the shippers and the others

seriously, when this secret audio was playing i felt like i was about get a jump-scare, covering my face during most of it. relatable?

The song in 2:33 can also be played when you get the bad ending then do the Konami code (up up down down left right left right back and confirm button)

That is actually very creepy, not gonna lie 3:01

the torrent audio is a deeper version of the reversed intro theme with king dice's laughter

Im amazed how the soundtrack looks like the 3 stages of the devil boss fight

The creepy version of the Reversed was very creepy because it had the creepy labs and the screeching

5:21 it’s not creepy there just talking about sausages and biscuits and breakfast

This sounds like something out of a creepypasta

They sure do know how to scare people who does piracy, but they should have made the entire game (Like, map, menu etc.) That would be a better way to scare the piracy!

The music in the pirated version of cuphead was actually an unused audio file intended to be used for the devil boss fight,or for the bad ending of cuphead,I’m not sure which one it was intended for,but it was still an unused file.

Remember kids this is why you should buy a game normally!

I think it would've been neat if after the bad ending when it switches back to the title screen you see Cuphead and Mugman replaced with their evil selves. Imagine if you even had the option to play as the evil versions of Cuphead and Mugman!

I'm not really surprised that they would put dark or scary scenarios in the game, I mean, it's themed around 1930s cartoons and they sometimes had some freaky genres like that one Duck cartoon that had the WW2 stuff, and kids during 1930s weren't easily scared of stuff that had some scary imagery or audio.

This video is giving me a hell of chills and when the main menu song plays backwards is hell a scary

made it creepier than it had to be. tbh. good video though 👍

I have a theory, guys. Let me explain: So, when I played the backward and torrented version of the Cuphead theme, I noticed how they both kinda start the same way. To understand what I'm trying to say, play those one version at a time, and pay very closely to how they start. Also, I think that they are the same exact song, but the torrented version was probably sung by a group of people with deep voices, and more sound effects were added to the song, such as King Dice's laughs (Although, those laughs could possibly be Satan's as well).

Oooooooo, so thats why it took so long for it to come out. They had this thought cleared. Damn, they sure did think this through.

this in itself confirms that cup head is the first psychological horror video game in the literal sense of the word

5:22 the song said squidward

I didn't know about the torrent audio! That was creepy.

Thank you for making this video I like creepy stuff 👁️👄👁️✌🏻😊

It’s still a happy fun game to me. The audio for those who stole the game sound like background noise from horror movies

4:50 Why did that make me laugh!?? 😂

But why is it called "you payed the price?" THE PIRATES DIDN'T PAY THE PRICE! (To buy the game)

Person:the theme is reverse Me:sharing is caring

Fun fact : This is not actually true whereas the developers said that " they did not put any anti piracy measures in the game"

Its cuphead and his pal mugman and his pal mugman and his pal mugman and his pal mugman and his pal mugman

3:53 it's just the devils stages when you fight him

Fun fact the scary audio you played first and the reverse CupHead song you played they both are the same except the first video just has a scary effect

Before video: drinking from my cups After: *making a cross with two rulers

Before clicking on video... I’m a brave boy After clicking... NOT A BRAVE ENOUGH BOY FOR THIS

2:48 you paused it on the right frame XD

On the reverse sound I heard “well he says my tummy’s forgiving it”

that's not true actually, developers said they have no anti-piracy system, but this song is actually avaible if u input classic code (i don't remember how is it called) during post-bad ending song

"Pretty creepy imageryyyyyy..." Me:Its called being creative

LOL the reversed main music is funny to be honest

Idk when I’m going to get this game on my play station but this video freaked me out but I’m still getting it

That is nightmare fuel right there When I first heard the audio I thought a bolt of negative and creepy energy Jesus Christ that is just yikes

Woah..DAMN..I THOUGHT EVERYTHING WAS FINE BUT ITS NOT.

2:59 That's the devil's 3 phases in the spectrogram image shown at 3:38

0:34 listen at 2x he is rapping 😳

Interesting fact about the mus don't deal with the devil vocal 666 file: in November 19 of 2023 a video on cuphead GioTGM showed the Konami code, when GioTGM recording inputting the Konami code, it played the mus don't deal with devil vocal 666 audio file.

This was in jacksepticeyes let's play... does that mean he got it illegally

5:01 its sounds like i just have came back from war and had a flashback

The devs confirmed that there’s no anti piracy measures in Cuphead.

SuperHorrorBro:Even when playing the regular store-bought version of Cuphead- Me:Cuphead can’t be bought in stores you have to buy the game online

0:26 cut head and his pal moog man

In the backwards intro song i heard “our fishing little salad” lmao

TetraBitGaming said that Cuphead has no anti-piracy screen, and yeah, you should go check out the short he made!

Writing this after the discovery of the audio file, it plays after the bad ending, and if you put in the konami code

Me: * looks in description * Desc:play cup head!!! Me: why play when you said it is creepy?!?!?

The 666 audio file's spectrograph actually is the devil boss fight's three phases. Creepy but neat.

Cuphead doesn’t have a anti piracy installed, if you downloaded a pirated version of the game and got a piracy game, that’s the creator of the pirated version doing that themselves.

It really worked for me after I look and try some tutorials, yours is the one that worked. Owe you a lot.

4:40 yep that’s me playing audio

Now i can't sleep tonight ;w;

Great job buddy now i cant sleep from that disturbing image

Cuphead doesn’t actually have an anti piracy title screen, it was music that was discovered in the files of the game, you can actually hear that it’s the title screen music played in reverse when you get the bad ending but in a lower pitch, my guess is that the lower pitch version was possibly going to be the original song to play on the title screen when you got the bad ending or either the developers just left something creepy in the files for people to find, but I don’t blame you Mike for including this in the video because back then a lot of people believed this anti piracy main menu was real because of a rumor started by someone who dug through the files and found that creepy music, I believed it too, but now I realize that it’s not real, but it’s ok that you included that, just think of it as a way to show what music could have played if you chose the bad ending or how the cuphead creators left something creepy for you to find in the files in the game

I remember when I gave the devil the contracts thinking I did the right thing and literally didn’t go back to the game for a week because I was so spooked

The pirated music sounds like something you'd hear when playing a record backwards through a corrupted record player

2:28 this haunted tune reminds me so much of Everywhere At The End Of Time.

You give me nightmares for the rest of week

2:27 pure evil 0_o

The should have done more than just played some creepy music for people who played the torrented game such as showing some sort of spooky screen that then after crashes the game, randomly cuphead and mugman have no eyes, and if you die sometimes you see a shadow of cuphead hanging from a noose. That would definitely teach them.

I never knew cupheads song in the title will be played reverse until I found this video

My god bro, the Toranted versions chanting when it starts to say something on the lines of : say hello! Over and over again genuinely creeps he the hell out.
