2:20 this part always gets me. She mentions how she hates to be alone at night, something that is a very commonly shared sentiment, especially among women. It makes sense for her to seek out companionship in the name of safety and peace of mind. But the way that she says it, entirely resigned and with no trace of anxiety or unease creates that sense of fear for her newfound acquaintance right off the bat. Why would the predator have to be afraid of their prey?
Her completely unchanging expression when she said "The train? The train’s not coming." as if it was a completely casual thing to say was so utterly haunting and brilliant
23:10 "The day was bound to eventually arrive" and she's foreshadowing a line from the second video: "To escape me, you had to be lucky every single night. To catch you, I only had to be lucky once."
The second she was getting in personal space and feeling comfortable enough to adjust a strangers hair, I was feeling the sensation that I didn't have the choice to leave anymore
This is such an unnerving character, but in really clever ways. The way her eyes sometimes catch and hold hungrily below the camera’s eyeline like she’s fixated on the pulse at our throat, the high shine of her dark red lips glinting so wetly even from the shadows, the way her expressions (and especially her smiles) never reach her eyes. There’s something off about the way she talks and her facial expressions, but nothing that provokes us to flee. The way she slowly sways closer and closer until she’s inhaling those huge breaths of scent right at our throat and whispering to us because she’s right in our face. She probes into who will notice we’re missing, and then later exploits the insecurity and loneliness revealed when we say we aren’t meeting up with anyone. I think one of the creepiest aspects of her is how she pretends to back off at the start after rearranging our hair, or offers to leave at the end. She acknowledges she’s being creepy with such cold amusement. It feels like she’s laughing at us, knowing full well we’re too trapped to escape even if she shows us the door. Super well done and very relaxing despite how insidious she is!
i love the way the story escalates, how she tries to build your trust little by little so it's not until the middle of it when you realize her stranger behavior may be more alarming than it first seemed to be!
the fact that she keeps re-applying her make-up, probably because of her undead complexion fascinates me. Also the idea that someone warns you for creepy strangers that turns out to be one themselves is creepy as heck. Lovely video!
I like to think that the reason we didn't run away from her at the first sign of danger is that she has some sort of hypnotic powers. Maybe something in her perfume or the way she tells us "you want me to stay, you want me to look at you, to speak to you" etc as if she is telling us how to feel, like if her words are hypnotic.
"Are you waiting for the train? good. " - That alone freaked me out enough to make hair stand on my neck, trigger my red flags and fight or flight. - Incredible. She portrayed 100% danger so quickly and so well.
This is unironically TERRIFYING. Knowing the intentions and seeing just how convincing yet eerie the act is, how masterfully it's acted out, just... This is a masterpiece. This is like 101 of how to lure a mf to their untimely doom. ITS ALSO REALLY FKN GOOD ASMR THE TINGLES GO CRAZY ON THIS ONE
We need more of this lady. I want to meet her at the bus stop, the book store, the coffee shop, the club; until she's no longer a stranger. Best ASMR video ever created.
This character is amazing, at the same time she drops so many red flags that set off every alarm in my head and literally behaves so seductively and caring that i feel like i could actually fall for it
