I finally found the video I mentioned all the way back in 2011! I also rediscovered the bit in which Pontius and Steve-O originally debuted the characterizations they use in “Daytona of the Dead.” You can enjoy both videos thanks to WildboyzVidz: I don’t know if I’ll have any material for Day of the Dead …

Splendorman
It’s Women In Horror Recognition Month and I have the perfect video to celebrate! It’s a hilarious Slender Man parody (more specifically, the Slender Man mythos set up in the Marble Hornets web series) which you can watch thanks to Neil Cicierega: So why is a video about Splendorman that was uploaded by a man …

Jiangshi Comedy
The English translation for “jiangshi” seems to be pretty flexible. I have seen them referred to as vampires, ghouls, ghosts and even zombies in various English language resources. One such example of the “zombie” usage comes to us from this hilarious prank video by TMD Shanghai: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Tne0nlYJHU Unlike many prank videos using the modern depiction …

Hanukkah Horror
I was originally going to discuss the slasher movie Hanukkah today, but there’s a problem. Its official Facebook page has been inactive for awhile and the teaser trailer is sadly no longer available online. It’s a shame, since there was a lot of interest in the project and its “Get Torahfied” tagline was hilarious. But …

The Pumpkin Dance: Christmas Edition
First I shared the original “Pumpkin Dance” video. Then I jumped ahead and shared the Valentine’s Day-themed sequel. Which is funny, since that particular video was actually the last of the trilogy. So let’s look at the Christmas-themed first sequel as uploaded by KXVO 10:00 News: Here’s hoping we’ll be seeing more installments in this …

The Pumpkin Dance
You might have already seen the famous video of a man in a pumpkin mask dancing to the theme from Ghostbusters. Perhaps you saw one of the remixes or parodies. If you have not and are wondering just what in the world I am talking about, here’s the infamous video courtesy of KXVO 10:00 News: …

Oddity Archive: The Sounds of Halloween
One of my favorite web review series is Ben Minnotte’s Oddity Archive. I love his looks at various audio visual oddities and how his theme music sounds like something from a giallo movie. Where else could you learn about failed video formats, obscure broadcasting standards and the like from a guy behind a cardboard box? …

Mad Science Gone Wrong
The creation of a video segment to use during part of a haunted house is nothing new. But what sets the subject of today’s article apart from the rest is its rather unique take on the matter. Rather than do a dead serious video, the people behind Shriners Haunted Mansion decided to go the intentionally …

The King Plays The Haunted Majora Cartridge
“Ben Drowned” is a creepypasta about a haunted Nintendo 64 cartridge with one interesting detail which set it apart from the others. The author created a video of him “playing” the haunted cartridge in order to make he story seem more realistic. Since the game used to create it was Majora’s Mask, it wasn’t long …

Thriller Parodies
Parodies are inevitable when you have a music video for a song as popular as Michael Jackson’s “Thriller.” Trying to list them all would take too long, so let’s narrow it down to two. The first is the famous “Indian Thriller”: Said video is actually a musical number from the movie Donga, which you can …

WeeGee Is Real?
If you watch a lot of Youtube videos, you’re probably already familiar with WeeGee in some way. He’s made cameo appearances in the backgrounds of many a video and has been the villain in countless Youtube Poops. He’s also appeared in numerous images and message board threads. But even if you recognize him, you might …

The Emotional Vampire & Passive Aggressive Werewolf
SMBC Theater have been making tons of hilarious online comedy sketches since 2009. Here are two loosely related ones that I think you will enjoy: Just like the last time I linked to an online sketch comedy troupe, the people behind the above videos have made a feature length motion picture. It’s called Starpocalypse and …
