I love how Minecraft unintentionally uses paranoia as a weapon. Paranoia is, honestly, the strongest type of fear (in my opinion). You think are alone. Are you really? You know you are, but are you sure? Is the fog empty? Was that noise just a cow or a chicken? Paranoia leads you to wonder what might happen. What monster is hiding and what does it look like? Are you safe? Is it watching you? Are you truly living in an empty, nearly infinite world? Are you truly the only one?

This is such a good video! I really want someone to make a proper Herobrine mod. One where Herobrine would almost never be sighted, and only his handiwork could be found. Ideally, the mod would be disguised as something else like a performance mod.

here's my take on a herobrine movie: he doesn't eventually hop out of the game ring style and starts chasing you. he just keeps following you in the internet space. he finds you in other games, social media, websites. he's like a stalker, but he never tries to kill you, he just keeps making you more and more paranoid until you somehow commit suicide

miss the good ol days of herobrine sighting videos

I like your take on it, basically what is scary about Herobrine is the 'unknown' aspect of it. This was especially scary on the Alpha versions of Minecraft when Herobrine/White Eyes rumors started to show up. Back in the Alpha days, basically no one knew about how computers work, let alone Minecraft, they didn't know that Herobrine "wasn't possible" or "didn't exist" especially because Notch would add updates randomly without telling WHAT he had implemented in the game (Seecret Updates) Most people were scared to death thinking Notch might've added Herobrine, or that it actually 'entered' the game in some paranormal way, and a lot of people just stopped playing. But there were some skeptics. I love Herobrine because he isn't like other "scary" mods nowadays, most horror mods are some random monsters who scream and run towards you randomly, this is NOT scary, it's just building tension and then jumpscaring you, with Herobrine, the tension is never released with a jumpscare, you just keep building up suspense until you cannot handle it anymore and just quit the game... Underrated channel fr, nice video and your personality is great!

Hollywood would probably make their own shitty version of a Herobrine movie, with chliches, stereotypes and all.

Underrated as hell, very nice video (Edit: Skinny armed herobrine is cursed)

It's nice to think that kids today are still believing and/or just scared of old game creepypastas

i dont remember subscribing to this channel must have been herobrine very well edited video btw

I think the reason why herobrine was very frightening was that we knew nothing about and it was unknown for us. Same thing goes for other fears and phobias like fear of darkness or fear of monsters. Our brain just assumes the worst and make up fictional stuff that makes it scarier than what it is!

As a 14 yr old who keeps getting scared looking at caves... And constantly looking to the sides of my screen... I can say, he scares me using imagination the most...

I remember back in the day when I first picked up Minecraft in fourth grade, everyone was afraid of this monster Herobrine. The strange thing is, instead of making me scared to load into my world, he intruiged me and stimulated my curiosity. I soon became obsessed with trying to hunt him down and kill him in my worlds to the point where I was searching up videos on how to find him and spawn him daily. Eventually I downloaded the mod pack just so I could make it a reality. The idea of hunting down and killing this boogeyman that was invoking fear in the Minecraft community made him this mysterious and powerful being I wanted to learn more about You could say I had an actual encounter with him, but it may have just been my friend pranking me on his server (nametags were off). Upon spawning in, I saw a half chopped down tree and a crafting bench close by. I assumed it was just my friends' and proceeded to gather wood for myself. Upon crafting wood tools, I look up only to see a Steve with his back turned to me. Again, assuming it was my friend I casually walked up to him, leading to him slowly turning around just to reveal his face to me. It was Herobrine. He swiftly pulled out a sword and began sprinting towards me, I landed a few blows and ran into a cave system where I eventually lost him. But if it really was true, it was an honour to meet and duel u Mr. Herobrine sir ;)

When I was a little kid I would leave out gifts in chests for Herobrine because I thought he must be lonely bc everyone always ran away from him. I still refused to go in caves though lol

2 Times in my life i thought i met Herobrine: Numero Uno - Jungle temple, i thought it was Herobrine structure. Dos - Piglin in armor, give him netherite helmet, diamond chestplate, netherite leggins and boots. then go far away and look at him, I acidentally made that and i jumped off my chair.

what made herobrine good is that he wasn't this white eyed cryptid haunting your worlds. he was but he wasn't. he was every door you forgot you've left open. he was every footstep in a cave that could've easily been yours. he was a cave sound you've never heard before so you were left wondering if it's normal. he was the rock formations in taiga that looked just a little bit too symmetrical. he was the figure in the fog. the horror of herobrine wasn't knowing you were haunted, it was not being sure whether or not you are. modern minecraft creepypasta focuses on jumpscare horror, when minecraft was never about that. what's creepy about minecraft is that you are alone... or are you really? it's a shame herobrine too got ruined with time.

I'm unfazed by random dudes with white eyes that just stares at me, I'm concerned about the kind of dude that has the psychopathic tendencies to randomly end my life 💀

Fantastic video! You explained the whole nature and psychological horror potential which Herobrine still has. He is what hooked me into such horror stuff and into Minecraft as well. I love him, he is so mysterious yet so understood somehow. You made a video about a difficult topic in less than 6 minutes and explained it better than anyone else could've. You deserve alot more subscribers and support! (Btw this is the first video I have seen of you and I can already tell you are great!) :D

I love this video! I literally grew up believing Herobrine is real, this video really captures how I feel with Herobrine. Well done

0:56 that is like getting hit by a semi truck of nostolgia

"Intimacy" Shows Dazai Osamu 😭

I miss those times, and I can't believe I do because my younger self would slap me for saying 'I miss being afraid of Herobrine'

Thanks for the nostalgia. I know he’s not real but even today I will occasionally see something very odd or something that fits what he supposedly dose. Including something that looks like it could only be made by a player. And whenever I see these things I always start feeling uneasy and start trying think of rational explanations but sometimes I can’t and I’ve been playing this game in some form for nearly its entire history. And when I can’t I start thinking of herobrine and get a weird anxiety induced nostalgia lol idk how to describe.

this video just need a little bit of thriller touch

not herobrine but it really feels like someone is watching you while playing alone in singleplayer by someone like herobrine. That feeling is still scary, it is like something is watching you from behind or from a dark place like around the trees.

I don't think I've ever stopped believing herobrine exists. There's still a thought that comes to mind every now and then when I play minecraft. "Am I really, genuinely, alone? Is someone watching me?" then that feeling of being watched gets me. It's like a 6th sense, like I KNOW he's out there, just waiting. Watching. Always standing in the shadows. Just a quiet dread. You are never truly alone.

Honestly, I always liked the idea of Herobrine being a cosmic horror

They better make him a part of the Minecraft movie, otherwise I'll boycott it

This is soooooooooooo underrated keep up the good work

It's been so long since I felt interested in watching a herobrine video that I didn't even notice subscribing to you (real)

If we were serious on making a Herobrine movie, then it would be effective (and cheap for that matter) to make it a found footage film similar to Unfriended. It would star some players on a Minecraft SMP sometime during the early 2000's. The appearance of Herobrine will be a slow burn and act more like an infection of their world. It would start with trees losing their leaves, with whole forests spawning without them. Hostile mobs would start to spawn more, and nights will slowly become longer. A local village the players visit will have a fake Herobine shrine in its church, and all the villagers will look blankly at the players whenever they pass by. When night falls the players will be chased out of the village with the villagers all having white eyes. Herobine would watch atop the church. Other anomalies would be animals also staring down players, and then succumbing to the white eyes and attacking them. Cobblestone and sandstone pyramids would spawn randomly across the terrain, and mined out columns underground would be lit up with redstone torches. Herobrine would pick off each player one by one, luring them on their own and then appearing right in front of them. Once this happens, the person controlling the account Herobrine targeted would leave whatever voicechat they were in, with their account aiding Herobrine with white eyes of their own. Eventually this will dwindle down to the protagonist who'd end up finding Herobrine's shrine in an underground area. It would be revealed that one of the other players summoned him to their server. I would make alterations to Herobrine's origin at this point. He wouldn't be Notch's dead brother, but rather some type of digital demon. Someone would make a pact with him, allowing him to enter a world or server by creating an altar, which would be the classic Herobrine shrine. The reason this person did that was because Herobrine promised to bring back a sibling that they lost, which would pay homage to the original myth. They would end up being betrayed though by Herobrine, as it would turn out that Herobrine killed their sibling just for them to make this deal, so he can continue amassing power. The protagonist, broken that all their friends are gone, would make one last deal with Herobrine. If he doesn't kill him, he would open the SMP up publicly, allowing more people to join, allowing Herobrine more servants and power.

THE PICTURE OF DAZAI I CAN'T Also great video! I'm glad to have found this despite its size and I cannot wait to see what else you do in the future : ]

Oh my gosh, you know how to have fun. I know what I'll be thankful for this years thanksgiving.

Nice video. I’m glad someone is being this to light.

why is this underrated af like wtf

If herobrine ber really added, it cannot be in a changelog, it cannot be common, it needs to be an mystery. Like, imagine if mojang add herobrine, someone will make an post saying that he saw herobrine in the vannila game, but no one will belive it because its dumb to think that mojang would add that

Interesting perspective! I wonder how you feel about mods like From the Fog and Him that add Herobrine to the game in a mostly authentic way.

Man what a good video. Always thought the whole legend had really massive potential. Also obligatory, "Subbed before 3k"

I've played minecradt since I was 6 and I have always feared herobrine to this day

They was also a demom in a cave with white eyes

psychological horror (especially in games0 is underrated, gore + monsters arnt that scary, its the suspense that makes a horror good.

Great video and great channel. Sad you only have 3k subs

i remember one time i dreamt of real life, but the trees were without leafs at one point, and felt watched. eventually i saw herobrine staring at me in the distance. he wasn't that special, since he had the same behaviour as any other 'dream demon' as I call them, but I thought it fitted the subject

…he might be here…

Moral of The Video: Never Trust Minecraft. *Roblox at It's Finest.*

Maybe he'll be in the minecraft movie. At least as an easter egg.

You should be on a mod team for this

Herobrine just wants a hug 🤗 Great video btw

If Herobrine is scary because of everything you explained. Then you should see the Creepypasta of Entity 303. Basically It is a group or a person that psychologically tortured a boy in a minecraft sever by taking his friends away IRL.

See I don’t think the Blair witch project was inspired by herobrinr- mainly because the Blair witch project was a real project. These events really happened

Maybe it may look just like us in the real world but his eyes may be different😯

herobrine is a silly billy who like to mess with you

Said silly girl, indeed, hmmmmmm, silly girl is, yes.

Maybe Brian was the real Hero all along?

You are indeed a silly girl. Good video. (Are the Herobrine's that have been staring at you this whole video gone?)

What music did you use?

i love the profile pic :3

Hold on, why did Dazai show up when you mentioned intimacy? 🤨

i love ur mc skin :3
