- You know, horror games are something I always avoided as a kid.

They were too scary.

The ability to immerse yourself the way you do while playing a horror game is different.

It's not the same thing as thrown on Friday the 13th or Goosebumps.

When playing a horror game, you're actually in there.

You can see, you can hear, you can interact, you're in control of the movement.

Any more immersive than you, You just be a victim.

But those days of peeing myself up playing the scary maze are over.

I'm a man now.

And now, I ain't scared of no purple dude, no hillbillies, and especially not no grandma.

Today, ladies and gentlemen, same as we did for the horror and action movies, we're gonna be going over horror games I could easily survive.

And I'll be giving you guys my strategy, my game plan, my thought process, and of course...

Some of the ones that I can't.

Imagine you witness your next door neighbor commit what looks like to be a murder.

Or at least a kidnapping.

And after witnessing this, you, the main character, decide to go investigate his super elaborate home yourself.

But while you're in there, you have to constantly avoid this man capturing you.

Or you might be the next victim.

Well that's the plot of Hello Neighbor.

A potentially murderous, kidnapping, middle -aged man.

I didn't learn about this game through conventional means since I was a bit too old for it at the time.

who was obsessed with it play it.

And while it is an extremely scary concept on paper, you a kid investigating the super complex form of a potential criminal who may

or may not merc you when he catches you, that's scary stuff.

But don't let it fool you.

This game is LIGHT.

I actually have one very, very easy solution for this.

One that can be done at the very beginning of the game.

How about...

You just mind your business.

I know, I know, crazy.

Crazy to think that you could just do that.

But it's true.

All this started because us, the main character, felt this intrinsic urge to become Sherlock Holmes after witnessing something a little sus.

Like just turn around and look the other way, my boy.

Look, I didn't grow up in the best neighborhood when I was younger.

And even back then, I knew.

If I seen something like an old man getting jumped, all I could do is shut my mouth, keep his stepping, and pray for Gramps.

It sounds messed up, but I'm sorry.

It's the truth.

But if y 'all do want to go the good civilian route, all the kid really had to do was call the authorities.

Evidence or nothing just tell the cops your neighbors a minority

and you heard a white woman screaming in the house They're gonna be there in two minutes must

that door wide open and shoot first and ask questions later problem solved

A lot of y 'all probably already know this game, but if you don't, there's a horror game where you, the main character, are investigating a shut down toy factory after the disappearance of a bunch of employees ten years ago.

And while in there, you discover you're not alone.

There are these things, these entities, these toy monsters that come after you while you're trying to figure it all out.

And I'ma keep it a buck.

I'm probably not surviving.

Not only are these things going after you all bloodthirsty toy monsters, but all of them are clearly on something.

I can see it in their eyes.

Huggy Gwuggy got them dilated pupils, probably on some LSD or blue crystal or something.

Poppy...

Poppy's obviously coked out, look at those blood vessels.

And Mommy Longleg, she might be off the same thing as Poppy.

Either that, or she has some severe BPD.

And I mean severe.

Cause the way her mood switches from, "Mommy was just plain, come back !" Okay, okay jokes over mommy doesn't like cheaters come back over here.

Get your ass off!

Tommo that with the prototype running around doing I don't know what.

And in the third game, which I haven't played yet, they introduced hella new monsters, including a freaking cat.

Not only did they get me already with my fear of dolls, but now they're using my allergies against me.

Yeah, I'm finished.

Now while this one may look like a simple indie horror game, no joke, it's actually one of the scariest ones you could play.

The whole time you're paranoid, on edge, and just waiting for something to happen.

at night I am so sorry I'll cross the street next time.

It's a Japanese horror game where you play as a female barista working in a Starbucks type coffee shop

and I've never worked in the food industry before

but from what I hear it's horrible a horror game in and of itself.

You have the clothing shift obviously

and on top of having an annoying supervisor as the nights

go on you start noticing some weird stuff going on around the shop.

Strange noises, items missing, strange people coming in,

strange people staring at you from outside until you eventually Stalker alert.

We got a stalker on our hands, ladies and gentlemen.

Eventually coming face to face with them at the end.

Boom.

We got the lore.

While this one may seem simple because it's just a regular degular human, no special abilities, at the most, maybe a knife.

It's not.

There are two things in this game that could cause me some trouble.

One is, the girl we're playing as is clearly not in the best financial situations.

She's B to the R to the O to the K to the E.

A college student.

That affects the first plan I had, which was to just quit your job.

can't afford to do that.

I know how it feels to be living off mayo sandwiches and instant ramen, and I'm not putting this girl through that.

So the next immediate counter I thought of was, just tell your supervisor you want to switch shifts.

You don't lose your job, you keep that bread coming in, and you stay away from all the creepy activities.

That could work.

If I knew how to speak Japanese, how would I even communicate?

How?

There's no subtitles in real life.

Drawings, ASL, Morse code.

How did I even get this job?

Only things I know how to say in Japanese are what?

Stop.

100

Domain expansion

101

so communication wise I'm cooked can't even call the cops meaning

102

my only choice for the situation is to defend myself So here's the plan.

103

We know the dude stalking us is seriously obsessed with us judging by those notes He be leaving

104

and the pictures he be taking and as creepy as

105

that may be it could be used to our advantage It'll seem like a regular shift.

106

I'll be whipping up some coffee some lattes

107

when in the corner of my eye I'll see the stalker watching me through the glass.

108

He'll probably be imagining doing some heinous things to me often, but he won't know that I have him right where I want him.

109

As he's staring at me through the glass, he'll notice in the corner of his eye a coffee I left on the table.

110

And this wasn't no ordinary coffee.

111

This was a coffee with my lipstick on it.

112

He's a creep, so he immediately wouldn't be able to resist adding this precious item to his precious collection, so he walks into the shop swiftly,

113

trying to get the cup before I can even notice while I'm dealing with some customers.

114

But like I said earlier, I got him right where I want him.

115

Before he could take another step, He hears it.

116

Stop it!

117

Yoichi Tenkae!

118

Mugen no Guroko!

119

No introduction needed,

120

we all know the name.

121

Some of y 'all may know, I faced these guys before when I did the horror movie version of this video.

122

And let's just say, I uh...

123

I bought it, yeah.

124

But that was the movie, which is way easier than the game.

125

When it comes to the game, before you can even think of coming up with a plan, you gotta ask yourself: Which game am I talking about?

126

or Help 1 or 2, or maybe Sister Location, or FNAF 4, or FNAF 4 Halloween Edition, or Security Breach.

127

All these games have different locations with different enemies you gotta deal with.

128

Some have four animatronics, some have one, some have 50.

129

It's ridiculous.

130

But if we were to go down the list, FNAF 1, I think I can handle it.

131

I may not have worked in the food industry, but I have worked security.

132

And when you have experience like I do, the answer for this one is simple.

133

There is no way I am working a minute on that payroll they got you on.

134

$120?

135

Really?

136

this was a pizzeria.

137

I didn't know I was working at Sheen.

138

$120 nowadays can maybe get you a pie of dominoes and a scoop of ice cream.

139

I'm good off that.

140

So the way I'm beating FNAF 1, I'm just not going to work.

141

Maybe I'll go the first nice, secure a cool 20 bucks for the eight -hour shift, but after that, I'm good.

142

FNAF 2, they pay even lower, but it's so easy, it's practically free money to me, so I'm doing it.

143

And this one we deal with almost triple the amount of animatronics as the first one, and instead of the classic setup, we got two vents and one big vent right in front of us, which may look intimidating at first because it's so open and accessible,

144

It's not because the second you throw

145

that mask on these animatronics don't be on nothing They got this whole facial recognition mumbo -jumbo

146

that doesn't let them see that I'm a security guard

147

which honestly makes no sense I know damn well they can

148

still see my ass in my security uniform gripping onto my chair for dear life

149

But hey if it works it works and the other two

150

that can bypass the mask All you got to do is use the flashlight

151

and just wind the music box on the camera.

152

It's easy If I just don't take off that mask constantly hold the flashlight and keep checking the cameras are the easier ones.

153

But FNAF 3 though, this one is more difficult and completely different than the other two.

154

Instead of facing multiple animatronics, which may seem harder, I'm gonna be faced head to head with the main man himself, Springtron.

155

He's a cold, calculated serial killer in a gold bunny suit.

156

And he's also the creator of the animatronics, or co -creator.

157

The point is, the dude is smart.

158

And it's just me and him in his rinky dinky amusement park.

159

What am I gonna do? And...

160

A lot of y 'all FNAF fans may not like this answer, but...

161

I'm whooping him too.

162

Look, I'm a fan too, but this dude's kill death ratio is almost entirely made up of kids.

163

And like I said in the intro, I am a grown man now.

164

Standing at a tall, tall, Five nine.

165

I'm cooking him.

166

Springtrap is going to catch the work.

167

He's gonna wish those springlocks got him before.

168

Oh, but he has a metal suit, so if you punch him, it's gonna hurt.

169

Who said anything about punching him?

170

I got the chair I'm sitting on, the fan right in front of me.

171

There's quite literally a guitar right there.

172

If Springtrap walks in, I will not hesitate to smack him upside the head with it.

173

He's just Michael Myers if he was a furry.

174

And y 'all know what I did to him?

175

Realistically, only FNAF games I'm struggling with are Final Fantasy Freddy's 4, Ultimate Custom Night, and Sister Location.

176

Final Fantasy Freddy's 4, because you play as a parent or a kid, and...

177

Look at these things.

178

Ultimate Custom Night because...

179

What is even happening?

180

And Sister Location.

181

Bro, baby is 7 -2.

182

I am not dealing with that.

183

And as for Security Breach, Ruin, and Help Wanted, I can't say for certain I haven't played those yet, but I'm sure I'm about in those too.

184

As you guys can see though, just like the action in horror movies, there's only a few games that can really stand in my way.

185

I mean, I'm still pretty much unbeatable.

186

Let me know any parts you guys think I was wrong or right about, and let me know any

187

you guys want me to go over for a part two

188

i know i missed a lot also let me know

189

if you guys want me to play any of these horror games

190

or any other horror games on a second channel i'm thinking about making one in the future

191

but i don't know i wouldn't want to make anyone jealous

192

with my gaming skills you know i'm not going to be

193

a part of my gaming skills you know i'm not going to be Let me know for real.

194

And moral of the story.

What is the Shadowing Technique?

Shadowing is a science-backed language learning technique originally developed for professional interpreter training and popularized by polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. The method is simple but powerful: you listen to native English audio and immediately repeat it out loud — like a shadow following the speaker with just a 1–2 second delay. Unlike passive listening or grammar drills, shadowing forces your brain and mouth muscles to simultaneously process and reproduce real speech patterns. Research shows it significantly improves pronunciation accuracy, intonation, rhythm, connected speech, listening comprehension, and speaking fluency — making it one of the most effective methods for IELTS Speaking preparation and real-world English communication.
