And I thought that I would never see / hear from you again! I watched your video a long time ago when I felt bad and it actually helped me through the hardest times of my life. It inspired me to something new and gave me a lot of creativity. I liked your video so much that I showed it to my siblings and I drew pictures with the inspiration of your video. I do not know how to describe it, but your video solves in me some kind of nostalgia from my childhood or that relaxed feeling (especially at the beginning of the video) just walking through the woods and listening to nature. It may sound strange because of such a video, but this video is a great reminder of my childhood and feelings. I wish you and your family good luck and all the best! Greetings from Germany -Isabella

Just discovered this gem. I am super impressed!! I would love to show this on my tv show Spine Chilling Cinema, it's a horror host show that airs locally in my city and I also have the show shown on a few horror host sites as well. If interested let me know !! Also can message me on my page as well.

I first saw this a long long time ago, and couldn't finish it. Too scary. But it really stuck with me. A couple years ago I watched it, and saw your comments that you might make a part two. I'm really excited to see you're continuing it and keep updating your progress :))

So this video I made in my bedroom as a student has hit 1 million views.
It took it's time, Youtube has changed since I posted it and I could have just uploaded my dog doing a poo and got more views, but to me it means a lot. The fact that this little film - a film I left to the last night before my deadline, my DV camera breaking half way through filming so had to cheat animate it - holds something special to people is really very great.
In preparation I ran around town, visiting a lumberyard to collect old scraps of wood to build the sets. The main bedroom set is a drawer I pulled out and put on it's side.
I asked a friend's sisters to borrow their doll's house furniture - then built a small armature out of plasticine, wire and masking tape, and made heads out of air dry clay. I cobbled together some mp3s of my favourite songs, luckily copyright has been waived by Sony!
I've got a kid now and it's over a decade later, I still promise to remake this properly need to fit it around my other video projects and raising a family! I look back at this film as a testament to just making it happen... so much procrastination and self doubt over the years, but when you put time and love in to something you will reach people. And however basic this film is, it keeps getting viewed and people respond to it, I look back to it and it inspires me.
Thanks for all the comments over the years. I really enjoy that there are people out there with similar tastes to me who it struck a chord with, and to those for whom it didn't - good for you horror is a very divisive genre everyone's got a different thing that scares them! For the record my favourite horror films/games + inspirations are Rosemary's Baby, The Innocents, The Haunting (60s version), Don't Look Now, The Thing (Carpenter), Silent Hill 2, Resident Evil 2, Dead Space, The Orphanage, The Exorcist, The Brood, Videodrome, The Wicker Man, Triangle, Suspiria (Remake), Night of the Living Dead, Invasion of the Body Snatchers, The Omen, REC to name a few.
I suggest you check them out if this film strikes a chord. Particularly The Innocents and The Haunting (original one) which this took a lot from.
