HEY ITS MY CHILDREN!!!! AAAAAA I’m so glad you enjoyed what I am doing! Plus you pronounced my username just right! This story is not gonna end for a bit. You have earned a new sub!

The fact that the raptor is speaking like a freaking crow mimicking humans speech is so awesome to me

Scientifically Accurate Dinos mixed with realistic settings sound like an absolute nightmare. I don't know WHICH folk have said the accurate ones wouldn't be scary, that kind of thing is EQUALLY terrifying to think about.

14:38 Think I hear, "Are you hungry?", "You want a hot- yes, yes." Think this was the last words said by the boy, and now the monster is mimicking him.

I think the thing that unnerved me the most was how the ‘wrong voice’ sounds like it’s trying mimic the words “Are you hungry?” something the dead kid probably said moments before their death.

The last dinosaur is definitely a T-Rex, their "roars" are believed to be low frequency vibrations that aren't heard very well by human ears

Feathered raptors are cool and scary. People who say "feahters are silly not scary" obviously never saw hunting eagles, vultures, casoaries, shoebills and other such birds.

The noise you can't place is meant to be a tyrannosaurid or similar large predator - it's thought that they could rumble like crocodiles, but much, much bigger, basically vibrating the ground for miles with a very low frequency

As a paleontology fan my mind instantly went ooga booga when I saw the accurate raptor/dromaeosaurid in the thumbnail

Paleohorror that isn't directly trying to copy from Jurassic Park (*cough* 65) is a severely untapped subgenre, there is so much that can be done with our modern understanding of dinosaurs that can build up great slowburn horror. The Dromaeosaurs being intelligent, persistent, and studious hunters basically trapping people in their homes is so freaking scary, but also the fact that they are still behaving like *Animals* is another contributor--Screaming monsters that suicidally throw themselves at prey a la Jurassic World are formulaic and easy to predict. These dinosaurs are cautious and planning, making it hard to pin down what they might do. 100/10, inject this type of content directly into my veins.

Dino/Animal/Monster IDs for those who want to know: - the Window Monster is a large Dromeosaurid, possibly Dakotaraptor or something similar (EDIT: I've recently learned that the original mask is supposed to be a Troodontid, probably one of the larger ones from Alaska that might not have a proper name yet) - The "small mutant birds" might be the actual babies of the Window Monsters, as they seem too small to be adult Velociraptors (actually roughly turkey-sized) or even adult Troodontids or Compys - Crest Monster is most likely some variety of Tapejarid pterosaur (they had big weird crests likely for display), and it most likely didn't do anything to the neighbors, it's just taking advantage of the situation to hide inside their patio - the Lanky Thing on the Roof might've been some kind of Azhdarchid pterosaur (which were basically carnivorous giraffe-storks, the largest & most famous member of their family being Quetzalcoatlus, though this one is likely a much smaller species) - the small Bat Monster on the screen door is definitely an Anurognathid pterosaur (which were small & fluffy with big eyes, very cute & round) - the thing that killed one of the Window Monsters and makes the rumblings that silence even the insects is a Tyrannosaurid, more specifically a Zhuchengtyrannus (which was significantly smaller than T. rex but still big enough to eat you in 1 or 2 bites); it shows up in person later in the thread.

This narrative can literally be described as "Bro never heard of dinosaurs before 💀💀💀💀💀💀" But for real, mad respect to Archie for finding the perfect way to make a terryfying story with dinosaurs Horror with Dinosaurs is a really interesting combination

Shoutout to Arch for making ridiculous noises through a megaphone for our entertainment

If he can make dromaeosaurs this scary… imagine what he can do with sauropods.

"Accurate Dinosaurs aren't scary" believers when Archesuchus rolls up with these goddamn things. I'm loving this new wave of Dinosaur-themed online horror.

14:20 The creature imitating saying "are you hungry" is brilliant because that's probably what the little kid said to it when he brought it food before he got eaten.

I knew it would be good when I saw scientifically acurrate dinosaurs in the thumbnail

As part of the paleontological community of twitter, it was A SHOCK to me to see this tweet blewing up, i was one of the first to see and i found it really neat, but for such a niche part of an already niche community, it caught me SO OFF GUARD after i saw the likes growing more and more as my mutuals and ppl i follow commented about the situation. I'm so happy to see that this accurate raptor managed to burst the bubble of the community >:D

I happen to be a huge dino fan, so I'ma try and identify the creatures featured. The "Window Monster" is a type of dromaeosaur, a family of dinos consisting of raptors, and a bunch others. In fact, the other dino, the smaller ones, at least to me, seem to be a raptor known as microraptors. Now, the other "dinos," actually aren't dinosaurs, they're flying reptiles, pterosaurs. The "Wing Monster" is definitely the one on the roof, but I don't know what it is. The "Bat Monster" seems to be an anurognathus. I know that's not really helpful and pretty obvious but felt like saying it. Also I'm happy you brought this to my attention, I'm so happy that someone is utilizing dinosaurs for horror.

The Utahraptor mimicking human speech is definitely an adaptation it developed and also is probably a convergent evolution of Parrots or the Lyre bird which is a bird that can mimic a wide variety of sounds from car alarms, phone ring tones, and yes even human speech (though it's not perfect it's eerily similar) Also Dmuted the thing that sounds like a whale or plane . . .that could be a Tyrannosaurus Rex

Dinosaurs work really well for Digital/Analogue Horror, it's a match made in heaven (or hell, depending on how ya see it)

As a person who used to be a dinosaur nerd, when he started showing the little mutant bird (which is actually what a scientifically accurate velociraptor would look like) i went insane. Edit: the weird groaning is actually scientifically accurate tyrannosaurus rex sounds

The low-droning sound monster is probably a T-Rex. Most recent research suggests that T-Rexes didn’t roar like in the movies but made more of a humming noise

Just to give you an idea of what exactly that rumbling dinosaur that’s been eating the “window monsters” is, you gotta know, there is a certain species of dinosaurs that’s been reported to make a rumbling noise in real life, it’s a certain tyrant lizard king.

The best part about watching these posts come out is all the blue checks saying "its a hoax guys" as if some people were thinking it was actually real

Honestly it was fucking GENIUS of arch to have the dromaeosaurids vocalizing and mimicking humans as it's something modern day therapod dinosaurs can do (Corvids and Parrots) it's so neat.

the way I was like “haha neat, spooky dinosaurs!” and then the Chicagoland suburbs got mentioned, and let me tell you, as someone who happened to walking their dog in the Chicagoland suburbs, I developed a sudden and powerful fear of raptors.

This is a pretty interesting Twitter horror thread. The "wrong human speech" still gives me chills just thinking about it. Just imagine if this is what Jurassic World Dominion(Pretty good movie imo) was like. Somebody hire Archie to make a horror movie!

I was super excited hearing you talk about this series. I’ve been a huge fan of dinosaurs since I was a literal baby, and finally seeing a good dinosaur horror series made my day. One thing I love is the accuracy of the creatures. From the raptors being nocturnal to them having similar behavior to that of birds adds a sense of realism to the threats, and that makes me love this series the most.

Honestly thought this would have been about something disgusting/degenerate rather than something actually horror-related.

as someone with a dinosaur special interest seeing someone who usually doesn't talk about them making a whole video about the sillies made my day, tysm for making this video! :D

A list of species I think are present in the series: 1. Big Birds - clearly a large dromaeosaur, the exact species isn't given but my guess is that it could be Utahraptor. No completely solid guesses yet (note that Arche could have confirmed its species, and I just haven't seen that post yet). 2. Flying blue monsters - appear to be two species of pterosaurs. One small and a species of Azhdarchid. No clear looks at them or their species have been seen yet. 3. Small furry creature - Judging from the looks, it appears to be an Anurognathus. 4. Roof Monster - This could be either a pterosaur or a different species of theropod. Unsure since no clear look was given and the only detail we got was spindly. 5. Bat-like screen door monster - Definitely an Anurognathus, no question about that. 6. Crest monster that trashed the Neighbor's porch - Thanks to that massive crest I believe that it could be a Tapejara. 7. Monster that killed a Big Bird - Not seen but considering how all animals go completely silent, it's highly suggested to be a large predator. (Note that Arche has implied it could be a Tyrannosaurus rex or other large theropod in its weight group). 8. Large shadow monster that chased Arche - This species has been confirmed by Arche to be a Zhuchengtyrannus. 9. Monster that was breathing on the window - A sauropod! I don't know how big Arche's house is supposed to be, but I am pretty sure that could be a Titanosaur. Rather its younger specimen or a smaller species is yet to be seen. 10. Dead monster in a tree - Appears to be a smaller dromaeosaur, could be a younger Big Bird or smaller dromeosaur species. 11. Monsters with glowing eyes - Probably small carnivores that function in large mobs or groups. 12. Flashing & glowing lights that sink badly - Could be rips in time or time-based anomalies that are bringing dinosaurs into the modern world. However, they could also created by a living thing or are living things themselves which could be purposefully placing these extinct animals in our time. No clear explanation has been given yet. 13. Small slightly friendly black bird-like monster / Mikey - Appears to be a Microraptor. 14. Monsters with glowing eyes that live in the ceiling - Most likely the same creatures as the Monsters with glowing eyes. 15. Small skittish bird monsters - Putting this last since they appear to be multiple species filling the same role. Appear to be a mixture of small theropods, baby / juvenile carnivores, & primitive birds. Here's to hoping we see more dinosaurs and other creatures done by Archesuches because this series is pretty great. I hope that we can see other large carnivores (mainly my favorites Tyrannosaurus rex and Spinosaurus).

I can imagine how scary a found footage movie like this would be? It would be terrifying! Dinosaurs dont need to roar or be loud and aggressive to be scary. Hope you make more videos about this thread.

Please make a part 2 in the future. Arch is a fantastic paleoartist and his stuff is extremely accurate to the real animals. This story is continuing as we speak and I've followed them for years!

HOLY SHIT BRO I’M MUTUALS WITH THIS GUY I NEVER EXPECTED YOU TO COVER HIS STORY

Pls man, keep on covering this thread, the newer posts are just 10/10 HORROR, IT GIVES ME CHILLS, especially when the mimicking gets better. Also, Arche did come up with a name for this (as you might know but the comment section not), its now called Weird Birds if I'm not wrong

Ok but the fact this scared me in a recap/going over video is wild i could barely look at the screen when pics of the dinos were just staring at archie thru the windows were up

i’ve watched and followed along to ARGs with a lot of disturbing audio and visuals, but i don’t think i’ve ever felt so unnerved by something other than the “wrong talking”. the whispering and hissing of “are you hungry? yes, yes” which are presumably the last words of a child before being completely torn apart- it genuinely gave me chills even though i’m watching this in broad daylight.

The "talking" reminds me of how some big cats have been documented imitating the sounds of baby monkeys to attract prey. And crows.

The person who said feathered dinosaurs aren't scary after I release multiple 5 foot dromaeosaurs on their property (oh huh they seem pretty scary now don't they?)

What's great about the talking is the idea that maybe a raptor could mimic a human's vocals the same way as a modern bird like a parrot does. Except when a parrot does it, it's cute. When something does it to try and trick and predate upon you, it's terrifying. There was something similar in a novel called The Flock, in which surviving terror birds could do the same thing.

This right here just keeps making me more excited for my own horror series

How funny that I end up finding this after watching a completely different video on dinosaur horror. This one works really well and I love that the creator is trying to make these dinosaurs (and non-dinosaurs) as scientifically accurate as possible. Really shows how you don't need to make a dinosaur scaly to make it scary. Lastly, a theory I have (and I'm 100% sure I'm not the first to think this) is that the dinosaur that killed one of the raptors and made that deep noise was a tyrannosaur. I'm looking forward to seeing more developments from this. (even though I refuse to back to twitter)

Since Jurassic Park sequels missed the chance, someone had to come up and do justice to feathered dinosaurs and make them scary. Great stuff!!!

this is such a cool analog horror premise, done way better imo than the jurassic park one's actually done. if the park wasn't on an island i can 100% see this playing out after the power failed or something.

19:45 I am literally hearing those noises right now💀

I’ve always wanted to see unique and scientifically accurate dinosaur horror. But now I am by myself after midnight and very much regretting my wish. Thanks to Arch for this absolutely insane art project!

14:59 the speech (evidence for this is from the other video made on this awesome little series) here is from the kid feeding them. Poor kid definitely got devoured by the big ones.

“There’s a stench coming from outside” this guy really did his research on what the earth smelled like millions of years ago from the light portals.. all the gas from the earth may have made the earth a very smelly place back then.

Dunno if someone’s already mentioned this but my absolute favorite Twitter horror thread story is definitely The Sun Vanished. That shit was soooooo good. Tho, the amount of people that thought it was stupid and fake was mind numbing. Like, no shit.

So glad to see more Paleohorror popping up! It’s been on a bit of a kick of it lately and it makes me so happy to see more of it!!

AYY thanks for covering my pals horror thread! its been so awesome watching him blow up overnight, finally getting the credit for his work that he deserves.

"Arch finally reveals what the object was, and it's a horrifying realization." Me: Let me guess, pet cat or small dog. No reason to call the poli- 10:41 Me: OH. OKAY.

As someone who's favorite fossil Pokemon is Archeops(based on the Archesuches, which you pronounced perfectly btw) all I needed was "large leathery face" "mane of feathers" and "big bird" to clock that this was dinosaur horror which I coincidentally happen to LOVE! Safe to say I'm hyped

The first audio actually scared the heck out of me, because I could only hear it out my right ear and it sound like it was coming outside my window. I had to rewind multiple times to make sure it was coming from this video. Good job on the audios, Archie-!

That one art of the guy hitting the dino with a broom like it’s an oversized goose is hilarious tho.

Also if nothing else Arch's nickname and avatar is a dead giveaway his story will be about dinosaurs.

Oh bow THIS was such a welcome find! Digital horror threads about donosaurs are great! I've always loved dinosaurs! So this is such an awesome idea!

Please do cover more after another good chunk of this nightmarish adventure continues, love this coverage!

There has been a few horror threads like this almost like the Daisy one and The Sun is Missing. It’s kinda cool to see this almost like a world is kinda being shown through Twitter.

nah this was absolutely amazing watching this unfold on Twitter

20:27 They're based on Deinonychus, which was classified as a species of Velociraptor in the book Michael Critchon used as reference from what I've heard.

People in the thread are posting pics and commenting "This you?" with OP in their mask. People can't enjoy a little analog horror without trying to one up the creator, when this is clearly just a fun story playing out...

17:41 i think its a tyrannosaurus that kill the other window monster because it has been confirmed by paleontologist that t rex actually sounded like these

Btw - the scrawled out writing says "I like to feed them" on the drawing with more of the monsters. The "like to" is squished up in the winged monsters in the sky.

Dino horror just hits different. More of that please!

the most unbelievable thing about it is a dude with Archesuchus as a nickname saying "strange animals" instead of "they kinda look like dinosaurs" from the very beginning

I forget at which point it was (I think the first photo) but I immediately went "Oh this is about dinosaurs isn't it" and I was not disappointed

If there was one thing, I wasn’t expecting to see on the channel, it’s covering dinosaurs and paleo. I’m not complaining though.

makes sense that there's 2 in the drawing cause in the first picture there's a second set of glowing eyes behind the creature

18:07 this seems like the noises emus make when they are angry but super low. Going off the dinosaurs are related to birds thing, it could make sence

"Hey, over, here," "I, am, hungry" And I think it was trying to repeat the second line but couldn't say "-gry" and sounded like it ws laughing

ahhh yes, the archie's arg. what can i say? its beautiful. i just love how the dromaeosaurid (im going to assume it is a utahraptor, achillobator or a dakotaraptor) can mimic voices, that was so creative PLEASE YOU DAMN DROMAEOSAURID DON'T DIE

17:27 ok this was creepy, after the noise the crickets that i keep for my tarantula and bearded dragon stopped chirping after they would not shut up the entire day......

the dinosaur props and the audio are really well made this guy has some talent

God where’s the ARC team when you need them. Scariest dinosaur media I think I’ve ever witnessed, very awesome! hope they continue it.

Let's all just take a minute to be grateful that we don't live in this universe.

Of all the things to be covered by a horror channel, this was absolutely the last thing I expected

I really like this series so far, even though I feel like it jumped the gun in some parts. Mainly referring to the Kid's foot and the decapitated Window Watcher head. I think the part with the kid's foot could have been replaced with the remains of a local pet, and a piece of the collar found in the pellet. And instead of the decapitated head, I'd use like a piece of wing or a foot or something.

I've seen enough furry suits to understand that the 'raptor head' is a mask. Love the story though!

9:31 oh my goood that lil guy is so damn adorable ^w^!!

This is quite entertaining and well made, i'm here for creepypastas irl to get people riled up haha

19:40 Hmmm, Velociraptors

I'm gonna be surprised if anyone DIDN'T figure out it was about dinosaurs before the end of the video

I was hoping somebody would cover this Twitter thread! It’s so good!

It's been so fun watching this unfold on twitter after it showed up on my feed randomly I think only a couple posts into the story.

See, I wish we got cool perspectives like this in Jurassic World. Give us the actual horror elements of a story and world like this and it'd be SO COOL.

6:07 "Oh! Hey! Is that Kevin?"

And yet people still say feathered dinosaurs can’t be scary somehow.

Dinosaur horror? So cool! I was obsessed (and I do mean obsessed) with paleontology as a kid. I would say that kid me would be thrilled, but I was so easily frightened back then that I probably would’ve ended up with nightmares, lol

Actually, JP's raptors are based on Deinonychus not Utahraptor (Utahraptor wasn't named until after Jurassic Park had released).

Let it be known that anyone who claims that anatomically/physically accurate dinosaurs aren't scary is absolutely out of their mind. This stuff is more terrifying than Jurassic Park's sad excuses for dinosaurs. Also, t-rexes would not be our biggest concerns because we're just too small for them to consider us to be a worthy meal. Raptors? Now that's more concerning....

I like the fact that, even before the child's drawing, the very first image shows there's another of the initial dinos, as you can see the reflection of light in it's eyes just a little to the right of the more obviously visible creature's face.

Always good to see new horror stories posted in unexpected ways. Haven’t seen one like this since The Sun Vanished.

11:53 mother fucker, utharaptrs, compsognathus and now pteradons? hopefully the big T doesnt show up

I really hope jurassic goes down a route like this one day. especially since fallen kingdom and dominion where dinosaurs are just around the world now, it has so much potential for smaller more personal horror situations where humans encounter dinosaurs.

I've been wanting a horror series with scientifically accurate dinosaurs for YEARS now and it looks like this thread gives me exactly what I've been wanting! Love all the attention to detail! If I had to take a guess as to what the dinosaur making the low rumbly noise was, I'd say it's likely a T. Rex or some other large therapod, as we've found that they likely made incredibly low vocalizations similar to those of cassowaries. In other words, this guy's probably screwed!

i kinda skimmed through this video and seeing you describe a literal dinosaur as "the entity" "the monster" stuff like that without seeing you prefacing it with "i will revel what it is at the end" had me laughing a lot.

Anyone else think that first dinosaur mask, the one with the black face/beak looks pretty cute? It reminds me of a chubby dodo bird.

Now this is the type of horror for me. I absolutely love dinosaurs, and I loved every second of this video
