I'm so flattered that you made any of this! I really appreciate the video interpretations! I thought about it and, I'm not gonna correct anything, I think it's fun to let the imagination go crazy. (Also Mikey did not die in this section)

I hate how the deinonychus’ “voice” gets deeper when it says “it’s ok” compared to the higher pitch “daddy” it’s terrifying

Animals being able to mimic human sounds is something that I think doesn't get utilized much when it comes any piece of horror media that involves deadly animals.

Mikey was the fucking MVP, he sacrificed his life for someone he met the same day, true selflessness.

Fun fact- T-rexes had padded feet, meaning they were nearly silent hunters.

I know Mike is a prop , but he seems like a chill pet to have around

Its the most hilarious thing to me that despite all the horror happening with the dinos. Arch just decides Mikey was pet material. Fits well with humans historically picking medium sized carnivores as pets

Parrots and crows are known for mimicking voices, so the fact this dinosaurs being able to do it is horryfing but plausible

Human instinct literally went from: “I don’t know what that is, I’m scared, I’m going to kill it” to: “I don’t know what that is, I’m scared, can it be my pet?”

“These creatures were here before us, and if we’re not careful they’re going to be here after us.” -Ian Malcolm 2018

I think the weird lights are likely space-time anomalies like in Primeval series (in which creatures from different time periods and even from other worlds appeared through weird lights like portals)

One thing that I like about the dinosaur mimicking the word “open” is that it means it observed humans (or killed enough humans trying to escape it) long enough to understand that humans would associate the word “open” with the door. It’s like how dogs know “sit” means to sit down, even though they don’t know English, but recognize the sound of the word and that it’s associated with sitting.

we need more dinosaur args and other horror media (games,analog horror, etc) its a great concept that could show what actually would happen if dinosaurs came back to life, no ingen, no john hammond, just wild dinosaurs roaming the world.

"Yeah, that's my neighbor's mutilated body. Those things definitely killed and ate him. And I 90% believe these dinos are sneaking into my house. I just need a sign to leave immediately." - Archer.

The deinonychus is saying; “don’t worry, don’t worry, it’s okay, open.”

I don't know if Arch is British, but the lights, which are likely where the creatures come from, remind me a lot of the anomalies from the British TV show "Primeval". In that show, a variety of prehistoric and future animals come into our time through similar shining portals.

The rumbling Tyrannosaurid has been confirmed by Archesuchus in an out-of-story comment to be a _Zhuchengtyrannus magnus_ (a Chinese cousin of T. rex) rather than an actual proper _Tyrannosaurus rex,_ though the distinction would likely matter little to anyone being chased by it. Additionally, Mikey is a proper _Microraptor gui_ (fossilized feathers tell us they were iridescent black like modern crows), and the smaller dinos that were fighting over the neighbor child's leftover foot might actually be the babies of the "Deinonychus". UPDATE EDIT: the main dinosaur that started this thread, the one most think is a Deinonychus, is actually an unknown/fictional species of large Troodontid, which is why they're so dang smart & able to mimic voices like corvids (Troodontids have the largest brain to body size ratios of any known non-avian dinosaur, so much so that it's commonly believed that if the KT extinction event hadn't occurred at least one species of Troodontid would've eventually evolved human-level intelligence).

That microraptor in the dog bed is so cute I love it

I remember the only reason I saw the last Jurassic World movie was because the dinosaurs had escaped into the rest of the world- as in, beaches and suburban neighborhoods, frickin EVERYWHERE- and I was so excited to see what that would look like. Of course, we got like two seconds of it at the beginning and then it turned into some weird message about saving the dinosaurs (cue Michael Crichton rolling in his grave). This unfiction series is so, so awesome for not only doing what those movies failed to do, but turning up the horror element because holy crap, this would be the most terrifying thing on Earth. Also the dinosaurs that mimic human speech are effing scary. Nonhuman things mimicking human speech scares the everliving daylights out of me. Gives me the creeps- in the best way.

One day I hope companies and studios can finally look at stuff like this, and make something amazing. Maybe not today or the next day or the days after that day, but one day.

Don’t you just hate it when dinosaurs are in your ceiling 😒 Like it happens to me all the time, I even have to put traps up there. In all seriousness tho this is my favorite twitter horror story. Move over the sun vanished, hello weird birds!

The digital world (much like the real world), are home to many scary stories, but Dinosaur horror is definitely one of the top scariest (behind anomalies, ghosts, aliens, and demons of coarse). Jurassic Park analog horror is definitely a great topic to explore in a future video

7:36 it’s either a tyrannosaur or a fucked up carcharadontosaur

Considering how ravens, parrots and seals can mimic human speech, I ain’t surprised that these Dino’s are also up to mimicry.

The bright lights are from an old series called "Primeval" Where a rag tag team of scientists (I think) had to deal with anomalies from past and future bringing out all sorts of creatures, Dinos included.

To me the voice mimics is not just scary but interesting concept meaning that they are “evolving” to human intelligence and meaning they are adapting to the human thinking process, an almost sounding like a robotic voice along with force and seems to be close to wendigo side which meaning that is…”integrating” and I hope to hear more about this in part 3 my friend and keep up the good work.

The size of the "Raptors" more-likely suits Utahraptor Ostrommaysorum or Dakotaraptor Steinei than Deinonychus Antirophus they weren't as tall, just judging by their hight in the window pic, also Dakotaraptor lived in the same time and place as Tyrannosaurus Rex. Great horror story 🤩.

16:11 i think the dino was using mikey as another bait like the feathers, leaving him too injured to move but just alive enough to be heard, possibly to lure him into the attic

1:25 I believe it’s closer to a utahraptor They’re bigger than a polar bear while deinon is much shorter than a person. We can see it looking through the window at roughly head height of a person that’s a little shorter than a real utahraptor

This is like the sun vanished but with dinosaurs

This is BY FAR the most creative horror story I have seen in YEARS Horror and biology,my two main intrests coming together is just wow. As a fossil hunter, this is what I have to say:👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Honestly So glad you’re covering this series, it’s awesome to see someone to cover something horror dinosaur related. Arch has really something special. Also regrading the huge thing whether it’s a tyrannosaur. I don’t think it is. Because it has bumps on its skin which is more common in another group of theropod called abelisaurids which includes Carnotaurus and Majungasaurus

7:40 i’m not gonna lie, that jaw looks too lean to be a t-Rex to me. However, my first guess is very incorrect because it was originally a Carnitor. I think this might be an allosaurus because of the upper jaw being much smaller as well. Allosaurus are pack hunters as well, so this is even more terrifying

Mike was not ths hero we deserved but he was the hero we needed. Rip

"there's dinosaurs in my ceiling" that is an amazing line for no fuckin' reason.

the moment i saw the light pictures, i immediately thought of the show Primeval- a British sci-fi show from 2007-2011 (one of my favs from my time as a young child that wanted to be a paleontologist) and the premise was a team sent out to investigate temporal anomalies throughout the UK, and these anomalies allowed creatures from the past and future to come through. it was super interesting, and this feels like a revamp of this idea. i love it

As a fan of both horror and paleontology, this "Weird Birds" arg is hyping me up so much. I hope you will continue to cover it. The fact that this also spawned a whole genre of dino horror on the web is really telling and I'm surprised almost nobody is covering it right now. This would also translate quite well to a movie if done correctly.

,Mama I don’t understand it grilled cheese Obama sandwich, 😂 bro, that had me Rollin

Gonna toss my hat into the proverbial ring about the big dino- it's probably a sub-adult T. Rex. They fill a different niche ecologically than grown rexes, being faster and pursuit-based rather than sneaking up on prey like the adults. If anything, this fella's probably trying grown-up hunting for the first time. Also, RIP Mikey. He could indeed have a little salami as a treat.

I would love to see this concept adapted to a movie. Could you imagine a movie that’s like Home Alone x You’re Next x Jurassic Park? I would watch that movie over and over again. Also R.I.P Mikey 🫡

we need to protect mikey at all costs.

VERY glad you not only did the original coverage but a sequel! I greatly love how you format and present information to make it digestible, love watching these. Keep up the great work!

Crackpot theory, what if this is literally the plot of Dino Squad where the main dude causing this is just a dinosaur pretending to be a human and is trying to bring back his species and wipe out every other animal.

Extrapolating from the silhouette, the "big bird" has a noticeably smaller body and shorter head than what is typical for T. Rex but seems to almost perfectly match that of another Tyrannosaurid named Lythronax. At least that's how I see it.

I feel like that big rumbling dinosaur might be acrocanthosaurs, since deinonychus is in the mix, just my assumptions, but a big ass charcarodontosaurid is just the right thing for a big rumbling bellow. Also that “ t-rex back shot” was actually the shot of a sauropod, further proving my acrocanthosaurus predictions, also DM muted, love ur vids!, also that dino in MI is a proceratosaurs I believe, either that or guanlong, also, I have a feeling depending on where these portals open up, dinosaurs from those regions will appear, so for example if it was in South America, carno and pagotitan would show up, but in Montana T rex and trike would show up, that’s just my theory anyways.

I really like the music choices you use as background for this video. Especially that airy, whistly beeping one. 7:27

The fact Arch continued after this is crazy.

I absolutely love this series. Arche has done an amazing job with it.

Maybe there's a science experiment gone wrong and they accidentally summon multiple time portals to the past, causing the wildlife to venture out into the modern unfamiliar world, and the armed forces venture out to hunt down the escaped animals and close any portals they could find. This kinda reminds me of both the movie, The Mist, where Project Arrowhead experiment develops a window that allow everyone to view an alien world, but when the thunderstorm hit, the window created a portal that forced the alien fauna to escape and into another world along with the mist, and at the end of the movie, the military successfully hunt down and kill off the aliens, and presumably closed the portal, causing the Mist to dissipate.

i am absolutely in love with this series, thank you for covering it!

If it was mimicking what it's victims said "it's ok" and "I'm not gonna hurt you" is a lot sadder :(

Birds mimicking voices is already weird enough, but something that large and intelligent using it as a hunting strategy is absolutely mortifying.

This really reminds me of TheSunVanished, and I really like TSV, so I like this too tbh. Also great content Dmuted!

I’m so glad you decided to do a sequel, I really enjoyed your first video on weird birds

To me, it seems like Mike is most likely a velociraptor. Velociraptor would have been about the size of a house cat in life iirc.

The issiue with Twitter horror is the fact that somehow the person surviving can not contact help or other information

one of my favourite things about the deinonychus in this is that they sound exactly like how crows and ravens do when speaking, and now whenever I hear corvid speech I can't not think about child eating dinosaurs, thank you Arche!! Also im 99% sure all those wheezes, squawks and eye reflections in the roof were from more Mikeys as it sounded more like Mikey than the vocalizations the deinonychus has made in the past, hopefully they remain friendly!

If I don't see a Dinosaur singing Grilled Cheese Obama Sandwich in the ARG, I'm not watching it

The large window creature is most likely Quetzalcoatlus or anothet large azdarchid pterosaur, in one of the child draeing you can see both small birds and a large one, the small one is most likely the anurognathid that was on Archs sliding door perched (the lil round guy), and the window one is the large one, i also believe that the thing on top of his house on one post was it rather than a Deinonychus

Lets go part two Edit: i just now realized the protals might be a reference to primeval

YES THE PART 2

THE MIMIC

It's cool to see mimicry used to such horrifying effect. I had a similar idea, and i think of that fucking bear from Annihilation when I think of mimicry used to lure prey. Anyway, this would make an excellent miniseries. It would be such a treat to see accurate dinosaurs in a setting that suited them and got to show them off without sacrificing realism.

Something that this makes me think of is the BBC show Primeval from I think 2007. Anomalies cropping up around the world allowing creatures from throughout all time (including the future) to cross through these rifts.

The Portals remind me of Primevals Anomalies. Those were portals between the past (or future!) and the present, making prehistoric animals and creatures from the future enter our day.

16:35 woke me up so fucing quick

This gives me Primeval vibes, and that's amazing

14:52 Yi-Qi! The only sink-winged dinosaur we know of! Awww it’s so cute! Or nevermind…looks like a micro raptor.

This series is refreshing to see! I’m so happy that talented people, driven only by their love for the craft, are doing what Hollywood won’t. A authentic dark story that shows the wider public what can be done with modern interpretations of these animals instead of what we’ve all seen. Make no mistake, I’m as much of a JP fan as the next guy, but can’t we just say with complete confidence that the rinse and repeat action heavy creature features are dominating the market? *Before the edgy awesomebros come at me, let me clarify that I’m not talking about the creature design quality, I adore seeing prehistoric animals being designed both as modern animals and 90’s style Chaos Effect monsters. I’m just referring the types of stories dinosaurs are featured in.* While I’m pretty certain the ‘Deinonychus’ as the community calls it is correct, I like to believe it is a Dakotaraptor and the remaining ‘raptors that attack Arch in the climax are sub adults or juveniles of various age and size. Totally headcanon, but it’s fun. Can’t wait to see how Arch tackles the rest of the series.

abiut the start bro. weve all been there but u never need to push yourself

the amount of goosebumps and chills I'm getting , maybe cause I'm wearing headphones, maybe because your voice , maybe because the audio , but either way , another fire video

this ENTIRE THING reminds me of the san franisco incident, yknow the jurassic park scene where the t rex escapes that boat?

* me looking at a t rex in my backyard * damn bro thats a weird fuckin cat

That “somebody” “please help” I had another experience I’ve only had with Mandela catalogue, and oracle, I was so afraid I started to cry and be covered in chills, legit panicking 😳😨

>Dinosaurs entering modern day through portals that look light large lights OH HELL YEAH! Primeval finally getting its long awaited reboot!

The fake speech to me sounds like the alternates in the mandela catalogue. Also that dromeasaurid is appears to be taller than arch, so its probably utahraptor hell maybe even dakotarpator since deinonchuys isn’t that bug

i swear people like arch are basically my saviors for my horror thirst. and this guy/girl really went all out with his/her series! i can not wait for more and i am very excited to see more of this series! much love from phillipines

This has some STRONG TheSunVanished energy

From my dino-knowledge, 18:37 looks like some kind of proceratosaurid dinosaur. The group that has Guanlong, for example! It could also be a monolophosaurus but that's far-fetched.

The whole light-portal thing makes me think of Primeval, an old BBC show about dinosaurs (and Future Predators) coming to the modern day via glowing portals that look like broken glass and cause electronic interference. Is neat, even if accidental.

the way Im interpreting it is that this is an AU where dinos were never on earth, this is a modern day humanity where they just appeared out of thin air and are now clashing to live together, like jurassic world but unintentional or hidden from the public, which is why I liked you referring to them as monsters and MC referring to them as such as well because they don't know what a "dinosaur" is, kinda like walkers and zombies

the picture of several deinonychus in the ceiling was CHILLING

R.I.P Mikey, you are a hero

I have never been so damn terrified from a bird. This is amazing. Archesuchus did an amazing job (yes I know it's a dinosaur but you get it)

The saddest part of this story is the fact that we dont know what happened to the dog

This is some of the coolest shit ive ever seen! It gives me a lot of ideas about dinosaurs in the modern day and I want to thank you for spreading the good word of Mikey!

Can't wait for the arg, finally a good dino horror series! Also that dino is a Proceratosaurus

Something about a raptor saying daddy makes me laugh like hell

I'm sorry but the "gRilLed ChEEse oBaMA sANdwIch" was hilarious. Also I think the new dino might be a dilo

18:38 as a paleo fan, this immediately brings up Proceratosaurus vibes. If you don't know, cut it short; Proceratosaurus is a distant, but way smaller relative of Tyrannosaurus.

Very cool to see you cover this again

Bro, its the primeval sequel we deserve

First of all, thanks for covering this series! I don’t take Twitter and I don’t want to get one, so your videos covering and voice acting to it is how im able consume it, so thanks! Also I don’t think you would worry about calling the big dinosaur a t. Rex, is a fair assumption to make given that it is the best known big bipedal dinosaur (theropod), and they all look mostly the same. The photo Arch’s friend send him might be of a Dilophosaurus given the head crest, which if is correct it’s Horrifying, those beast are big, bigger than the ones Arch is dealing with. And one last thing! The video uploaded to KZfaq, that one is interesting because is not like the mimicry the dinosaurs in arch neighborhood have been doing, the last words of its victims, it feels like casual conversation heard in passing, which could mean this things have been just passively observing for a while.

Yo bro ur intro isn’t long ur just providing info, ur vids are amazing no matter what

When you said it was huge & made a low, deep rumble, TRex is the first thing I thought of. There's a strong theory that's what they sounded like!

I love Dino’s and fnaf, and horror. As one yellow rabbit said “THIS IS PERFECT!”

the mark of well-written horror, imo, is being able to dissect the reality of the situation while still having it illicit horror in the viewer. we know those are just props. you even mention it. but still, every time a voice recording comes on, or a low-res image is captured (see: the deinonychus head in the attic), it still manages to raise the hair on the back of my neck. _excellent_ work.

luckily I am a dinosaur expert and I do indeed think it's tyrannosaurus, it's either that or tarbosaurus

holy shit, this stuff seems like it might get fucking international, DUDE THIS SHIT IS ABOUT TO GET IMPOOOOOOORTANT

14:00 The implications of this are terrifying. If the person is hunched over, it could be a deinonychus holding up a corpse.
