36:10 Says the words "Imagine you're the caretaker of this place" and then moments later a song by the artist "The Caretaker" starts playing.

Thank you for creating the horror genre The Librarian

hit the 36 minute mark... well, THIS just took a turn... edit: The Librarian charging down a hallway hellbent on braining a ghost over the head with a small vase while yelling 'I VALUE MY EMPLOYMENT' is a moment that's going to stay with me for a while

The librarian is the type of giy to sit there and tallk about architecture while a ghost runs down the hallway

36:25 it is at this point that my fear and terror turns to laughter and bewilderment at such a sudden realization. The Nazi Zombies seem to have fallen out of favor, now overtaken by piano-loving Nazi Ghosts

This is actually creeping me out even without the vr. Good sound design really helps out

Librarian the type of guy to sing Christmas carols to the spirits to make himself feel better.

2:16: "Uh... Hello... Hello, Hello"

Librarian type a guy that would survive a anvil falling on his head

36:23 No no no, hold up YT! Just remember, the orientation _does_ change the meaning! In this case it's in the orientation that symbolizes good and well-being. In this context it's _totally absolutely positively_ just a gaudy decoration for some _totally random_ rich patrons party! -Please Believe Me Don't Take Down This Video!-

that bassy sound at the end when you lit the place on fire. i don't know why, but it felt like the hotel itself was screaming in agony, or perhaps a deep rage. there isn't much reason to even think this, it was just my instinctual first thought.

This is definitely a case where less would have been more in terms of writing. All we needed were a few vague, newspaper headlines, shorter, less detailed notes from management, telling people not to complain, or talk to the media and the letter in the attic. The rest of it was just too much, it took away from a great map

36:26 that slow reveal was priceless. 😂

This is the darkest episode of Fawlty Towers I've ever seen.

32:29 the piano is playing "Midnight the Stars and You" from The Shining

What’s up librarian, I just watched this entire video in 30 seconds. Keep up the good work

The Librarian the type of guy to bring me great content nearly every day

libertarian never fails to oil me up

It's always the best to get to a librarian video right when it releases

The Librarian is the kinda guy to address the Kinda Guy meme

HL: Alyx is always a gem. Love your content!

Your content is amazing! Keep up the great horror exploration videos!

The Librarian is the type of guy to hear a noise down a dark corridor and say "who's there?"

Yay new video...we r sitting in front of the fireplace watching ur awesome channel on a 75in screen... surround sound with rum in hot tea....got to love the holidays

I would love to see more Half Life Alyx videos. I love it.

Wow the sounds in this map were really scary.. the one near 45 mins then the one when you lit the vodka were really creepy. Deeply unsettling like you can't focus when youre hearing the first one.

dang bookman, ur library of subscribers is growing fast af, congrats

I really love your content and hope you keep doing videos keep going I don't even know how many years I've been watching you 😀

Enjoyed watching you play this but had to laugh when it ended with the old 'the evil house burns down' cliche. At least Kubrick avoided that... LOL

I can't wait for more people to make source 2 horror experiences like this. And this was so genuinely terrifying, this really makes you dread pushing forward and makes you feel uneasy everywhere you go. Even just watching it from a viewer perspective on a flat screen was so spooky.

That scene (which I'm not going to spoil, but you'll know it when you realize what "chills down my spine" means) really got me panicking. It was so much of an overstimulation that I had alarm bells going off in my head, looking for an exit from the situation.

You know it's a great day when The Librarian uploads, and it's an even better day when he plays a HL-Alyx map.

I must say that the inclusion of libet's delay was a great touch in this mod

Can’t wait to come home from work and watch this!

Ooooh. This seems so neat! I've always loved The Shining, although it's a little drawn-out.

Finally the long awaited sequel to this verse!

Impressive custom Map 🤯

The librarian is a great critic for games, he shows the good and bad in games and shows how it is detrimental to have something in a game..

21:07 YOOOO I recognize that as the sound the horror narration channel "Let's Read" uses for his transitions between stories

45:29 wow, the new Radiohead single sounds great

27:26 I don’t know if I’m tweaking or not but that face in the far right window isn’t at the end of the hallway when he looks down it

Hey Librarian!!!! I stumbled upon your channel through watching your Long Drive videos and you have phenomenal and engaging commentary an incredibly soothing voice, and are into horror games, so you're basically perfect in every way. I would love to see you explore the world of Yume 2kki. I think its near infinite, consistently interesting and full of life, yet creepily sparse, nature would be a great thing for you to cover and I am very interested in what you think of it! (Not to mention some of the really terrifying parts of it)

i hope you look at more half life alyx maps, theres so much fun stuff on the workshop, plus you might inspire more people

Good to see some more hl alyx.

Ngl, the part where you held up the phone to the sound of moaning ghosts and monsters killed me.

fun fact: the character picked up the phone upside down and was listening to the side that you supposed to speak into

I think you could indeed have dropped down into the hole containing the headstone. At 56:58 there’s definitely something squarish visible underneath the floor toward the doorway. Dropping into the hole and squatting should allow one to see something “interesting”. I have the feeling there are things you didn’t see, spooky stuff you didn’t get around to triggering. Still, I can’t help but agree that burning the place down was the right move. Oh, I don’t think it takes place in England despite the newspapers and mention of the Queen (unless it takes place in an alternate universe), rather somewhere in Eastern Europe. The phone ring was wrong, the Cyrillic lettering on the boxes in the chemical cupboard, the headstone and graves, and the fact that it was the site of a Nazi function in the past points more to Europe.

I look forward to your videos! 😁

librarian is the type of a guy who accept that he is the type of a guy

Ok this concept seems pretty cool

36:20 walks around corner:and that’s a swatka

You've got the shinning! You mean shining? Shh! You wanna get sued?!

I am terrified by this video. Holy shit I can't imagine playing this in VR

first few words, Librarian had nightmares of waking up in a library, lol

This is a very late and mostly useless comment (and I apologise if someone else got to it first) but "Innocent Smoothies" is actually just a smoothie brand here in the UK (based on the monetary report using GBP the game is set here) rather than a comment on the culpability of the hotel's fruit drinks in all the murders and such EDIT: Yup, then later there is a letter from 10 Downing Street, haha; now that I've watched the whole thing, I will admit I AM imagining Nazi smoothies causing all the supernatural horrors...

Pretty sure that is from the the 'The Caretaker - Everywhere At The End Of Time' at 37:00.

Played this with my kids. Found a rat in the trash and named him Ferdinand. I played Ferdinand and song on the piano. Then he was crushed by the very same chandelier, but I still managed to “save” Ferdinand from the fire and played him another song on the last piano.

Just imagine Voices of the Void, in VR, with Source 2 instead of Unreal Engine...

"i didnt have accidently speak to the ghost of a dead nazi on my list of things I would encounter on my first day" - live aquarium tsk tsk tsk someone skipped the orientation video.

36:28 Was that "Everywhere at the end of time" playing? If so, nice caretaker reference lol

19:39 "No using the pool from 12 pm onwards, avoid leaving your room from 12 pm onwards." What kind of janky-ass place is this???!!!!!!!! You can't swim after noon, plus you can't even leave your room past noon time! No going out to see the sights! Surely, they meant midnight, but that isn't what they wrote, for midnight would be 12 am.

Librarian the typa guy to play HL:Alyx-Garavito hotel for an hour and four minutes 🗣‼️🌽🌽🌽🐦🐦🐦🐦🔥🔥🔥

Librarianthe kinda guy to Gulp before entering a dark room

This is a really spooky and well made map that is ruined by the really silly by the notes. Reminds me of Jeff The Killer: a very scary image ruined by a story that makes no sense and with little understanding how the 'Adult' world actually works.

am I the only one that noticed the piano is playing the song heartaches? (most know it as “it’s just a burning memory” from everywhere at the end of time)

Bro, this whole thing could be "The Shining 3"

Wait do they not have Innocent smoothies in the USA? They’re pretty good

Innocent is a brand in the uk they make smoothies and other stuff

This was crazy but i feel like you missed sum scares. Been watching you for so long hugeeee fan wish we could play phasmaphobia or sum

"Innocent Smoothies" are an actual product sold in the UK, I'm guessing their inclusion on that list was intended more as a joke considering the context.

The storyline was absolutely comical

15:46 I hummed the first bar and im pretty sure that's the shining theme edit: i looked it up, it totally is, too cool

I know it’s sort of a small thing, but it really bugs me when a game doesn’t tell you what way you’re moving in an elevator.

I played this one It literally freaked me out

Maybe they were going for the Portal 2 vibe with the absurd writing.

Garavito daga baby!

I greatly appreciate all the work librarian and the game creator did for us to view I have a couple of questions how did the construction workers building the Gravito Hotel not see the Nazi graves they were building on top of?? Second question I'm assuming the Nazis died in the war and spirits of the Nazis were offing people left and right in the Garavito Hotel because they're spirits were that angry that their final resting place was disturbed did I get it right?? Someone please let me know thank you 🥰🥰

Great atmosphere, however this map is not serious lmao at 36 mins in it caught me soooo off guard

Wooohooiooo Alyx

31:07 I swear that sounds like a Big Daddy

You should try the goat man Minecraft mod it’s horrifying trust me

36:24 - OH NO! It was Hitler all along!

57:15 imagine if Pet Sematary was set there instead of a Native American burial ground. How different of a movie it would be

I work nights at a hotel. This is gonna f me up

Hl Alyx Is the best game

Hello which VR equipment are you using?

18:37 Yeah, Scanline was great. Shame there were only two episodes. We're talking about the same thing right?

Average hotel experience

35:38 Yeah, just a tracking issue.

Hotel Guaravita? Hehe.

Decorated for "a party" 😬

Here's JoJ

All creepy and no comfy make The Librarian something something.

Man this map was going so well til about halfway through then everything went to complete shit 😂 That one part at around 36 minutes in and the part immediately after that with the newspaper articles are hilariously immersion breaking and just completely unnecessary, the map frankly would have benefited from not having those parts in it

Good map, minus the bad english

Hallo

As a mapmaker? Flawless. As an author? In dire need of subtlety. Also that place needs a Rabbi to exorcise it. A catholic exorcist would do no good, the church collaborated with the Nazis.

2:38 Prime example of miscommunication where the information that was intended to be communicated failed to do so mainly because of the speaker not placing themselves in their audience's shoes. It is of human nature to make assumptions so quickly, and without thinking the matter through for a brief moment, that often it occurs without being conscious of the assumptions. In this particular case, the caller knows what they mean when using the terms left and right, and makes the quick assumption, likely because it is so incredibly obvious to them which direction left and right is, and so they just assume their audience will know the same thing without being conscious of making that assumption, but because that assumption that their audience would know which way left and right were, they have no need to analyze their words, so they don't, and they fail to realize that left and right can change which directions those terms represent, and further that they might mean something different to their audience because their audience would be facing a different direction than themselves. Is the caller referencing left and right based upon the direction facing when facing the front entrance of the hotel, while facing the front desk as a guest, or perhaps facing the front desk as an employee because you are starting your role as an employee, off-season caretaker to be exact, or maybe left and right are defined by the direction you would be facing when answering the phone? This ambiguousness could be avoided by using cardinal directions (north, south, east, and west). "The pool is located on the east side of the building, while the ballroom is on the west." That statement conveys understandable information much more so than the words they had chosen to use: "On the left side of the building, you will find the Brown Room, which is the ballroom of our fine establishment . . . on the right side, you will find our classic pool, in the middle you will find our Grand Staircase, and Balcony Overlook . . ." What information does that tell me? Well I know that the ballroom is called The Brown Room, and that its location is opposite that of their classic pool, and that their staircase, and balcony overlook is located in the middle of those two areas, but it doesn't provide me with any information regarding the directions in which each of these areas are located. Further, if you had any doubt regarding your audience's ability to determine which direction north is, then you could also eliminate the ambiguity by adding one small clause at the beginning of what they had said verbatim. That clause being: "While facing the front desk as a guest would, then . . . ", which would be even more precise than using cardinal directions, for what if your audience is not capable of determining which direction north is? This way, the caller would inform their audience of how to orient themselves, that is which direction they need to face, in order to know what the caller means with the terms "left" and "right".
