Hi folks, lIl be uploading a behind the scenes on this video in the next few days. It'll share many of the techniques used to make films like this... and explain why I felt the need to re-upload a couple of times ;)

You know, as much as I love these little edits, you do realize that these keep resetting your viewer counts for this, right? What you could do is simply link the improved versions in the description or comments for the old ones, which as a bonus would also allow people to compare the before/after.

A fantastic work of art. Would love to see this be a album or even a book with the songs. They are shocking yet moving. As a storyteller In training this provides a lot of helpful information. Good work, never a bad video. Have a great holiday

I never noticed how natural the puppets’ movements are and how expressive the Narrator is. His eerie eyes add just the right amount of dread to an already unsettling tale !

Normally the video mouth screen would hit uncanny valley hard for me. And this is "normal" for me, but in the context of horror works really well.

The creepiest character is a puppet based on a burlap voodoo doll. Don't y'all love it when story elements just work?

@darthman9139 7 ай бұрын

Don’t wanna be an ELA teacher, but I think it’s kinda symbolic how whenever the boyfriend offers a cup of water, he is met with hostility. Just a really cool detail imo.

Barnaby, I certainly hope you don't have a bout of unhealthy perfectionism striking your heart, like some folks here are prone to struggle with. I think we can all agree you hit this one out of the park.

Barnaby, please don’t work on these for too long, I would hate for you to wait too long between posts, or worse yet, get burnt out and leave the platform like all those other perfectionists. I just want what’s best for you ‘cause I’m hungry for your content.

A little “roughness” is a good thing. This was awesome and I am watching it AFTER I watched the BTS video… You are so freaking talented … I wasn’t expecting the young man to be alive in the basement

@William_Bryant 7 ай бұрын

As a resident of the pines myself, I truly appreciate the work you put into telling stories worthy of the ill wind that blows through the wood, the creaking footsteps in the night, the snapping twigs that echo the presence of something sinister, and the macabre feeling that you're being watched, only to turn and see nothing amiss. Your storytelling is some of the best mediums for horrific folk tales that come from our neck of the woods, and I hope you never stop telling stories such as this. The chill up the spine of all who hear is a testament to your power as a storyteller.

I don't quite remember the details of the previous two uploads enough to be sure of what changes were made, but I love how this time I think the Storyteller is more engaged with what he's telling. Like he controls granny, and appears behind the cloth of the vision. Makes me really get to see the little details of his movements and hands. It's so amazing how these are just little hand puppets. Great work!!

I've been hoping for this for a while and being born and raised in Appalachia it only makes it better. The fact that each episode in this series has such a distinct difference is so lovely. So far it's been a Germanic forest, winter sea, and Appalachian cabin. I have so much love for your work Barnaby it's been such an inspiration to my own art.

I finally saw the extra character that was mentioned in the behind the scenes of this video. If you slow down the video and pause during the scene where the boyfriend finds wet foot-prints, there's a glimpse of what I think maybe be ''the witch'', at 6:17 .

after I watch the behind the video I want looking for the second doll at 6:17 when the boyfriend find the foot prints in the lightning, the lightning at the ritual 6:31, and witch or ghost possessed the girlfriend show with the lightning again at 7:20

@tgibbst 7 ай бұрын

I finally noticed the outline of the ghost in the lightning when the girlfriend looks back at grannys corpse, bravo on that detail. I'm also seeing a lot of artifacting in the black background, I don't know if that is my internet or if reprocessing and uploading the video multiple times has caused that.

This is an excellent story with incredible puppetry in display to convey it. I like how a lot of the horror in the tale is about the injustice of extremes; the boyfriend is protective and a good partner to his girlfriend, but as a man, he suffers the same fate as the cruel men that murdered the witch. It goes to show that the cycle of violence is driven by hyperbole.
