[SpillingThyBlood]

That happened to me like three times this month

[carleighjohnsonlv]

Holy...freaking...shit. Love this...but creepy ass video. Still cool though!

[kdkkcampbell]

..... and she was SOOOOO pretty..... creepy. ass. line.

[kapuppygrl224]

yeah, ill watch this neat video, maybe it's a cute little story or poem..... no i got a scary ass horror tale that will keep me from sleeping for a week......

[LeNoodleGirl2103]

:D i just love these videos.....

[XxXnOmEaNsNoXxX]

Well obviously she woke up because she made the video...

[koconut12]

Not very scary...a bit cheesy...

[devil96723]

hows phone rang right after they watched this??!?! D: and i agree wit u MsSomethingsilly...i agree...

[almostwindowsx7]

i just noticed that during the entire video you can hear something that sort of sounds like muffled breathing. and it sounds exactly like one of those assisted breathing devices that they use in hospitals for coma patients. freaky...

[gaaragirlgo98]

@almostwindowsx7 Thats because if you looked at the tags it says "coma"

maybe it means the fairy was some sort of accident the girl had, and during the coma she had a dream about it. And the forest was death. it wasnt hungry...but it was waiting for her.

[mesogetoverit]

@almostwindowsx7 The theory is that this is a coma patient, and that is why she went to sleep and never woke up, and the background noise is a breathing machine. And she's a lone in the forest of her mind after death failed to catch her.

[LockedHeart1]

Thats how almost all my dreams are...

[animeguy556]

@LockedHeart1 Me too, horrible, horrible, nightmares

[NeoLightElectro]

even though we never see the fairy's face, this is still pretty horrifying. last night i kept thinking about the fairy's scary snarl, and her running after the little girl. that's how you know when a creepy story's good. :]

[xxXLolliiipopXxx]

.... um. well, looks like im not sleeping tonight.. -_-

haha x <3

[silverraven360]

@MsSomethingsilly being twelve, i see and hear what my parents won't, i trust they can't hurt me but i am still afraid

[LeighH182]

OMG THE VOICE IS CREEPING ME OUT!!! AHHHHH

[LeighH182]

This is the scariest fucking shit I have ever seen!! I will seriously have nightmares tonight!

But I still love it! ^.^

[pipy5748]

this is very disturbing! I like it :)

[LeLoupDriveIn]

THIS WAS SCARIER BEFORE THE TSA

[kazkanata]

I don't really find this video scary anymore... Perhaps it is because I no longer fear death...

[BubbleMonsterGum]

but this is an awesome story

[BubbleMonsterGum]

this is the most scariest video i've ever seen on youtube! CREEPY AS HELL

[jenjy888]

god this vid is creepy when i found it it was midnight and i couldn't sleep so i got on youtube and this was on the home page so clicked it and i freaked out it was freaking scary haha try it it's fun

[lalad2993]

CrEePy 

[SmexiiDinoGirl]

This actually was creepy o~o

[Ashleysworld9]

i love this story

[ThePianoWings]

This is by far my fav video of katys :P :P

[Irishwolfheart]

One day i fell asleep, and i NEVER WOKE UP..... and in my dream, i saw a fairy.. and she was holding a flower, and she was soo prettyy. BUT THEN SHE OPENED UP HER WHOLE HEAD, AND ATE. THE FLOWER. and she was still hungry, because she looked at me and i knew, that she was going to eat me, but i was faster. and i ran and ran and ran. only SHE RAN AND SHE RAN AND SHE RAN. AFTER ME. and all the time, she was getting bigger. arent faries supposed to be tiny? and then she was gone!

[danphan32]

@Irishwolfheart -_-'

[blessedsusan]

Katy! Fantastic video! You are amazing! Love the way your brain works....

[kisakiki]

its apparently about a girl in a hospital, u can hear the breathing machine in the background. n the fairy is what ever is killing her or trying to bring her back to reality and the light is death.

[AiRozuChan]

Made me shiver O_o Im a new fan 8D

[candykid021]

@0lst me too!!! Those r my fav story tellers lol

[rowegirl1313]

holy shit i think i pissed myself ugh *shivers* now im going to hear that voice

[TheFeyRa]

I vaguely remembered a time when I would've been able to empathise with the little girl.. But now, try as I might, I can never see any things in the dark, other than what they really are..

[kittehzzishmainame]

I Dont Get It...But Im Scared out of My Mind.

[geekwidacomputer]

my face when i clicked on this :|

my face throughout it o-o

my face now 0.0

but that's ok. i don't need sleep......

[KaylaNoelle1]

my mom thinks fairies are creepy I thought it was stupid but know i get it! lol last week I decided that marshmallows are evil because i had a weird dream where a marshmallow was trying to roast/ eat me and I saw on the news about how you should't play chubby bunny because once you get a marshmallow caught in your throat it wont melt and it wont slide back up cuz it's gooey and the only way to save a person who gets it caught is to surgically remove it. But SHE thinks that fear is stupid!

[SlayerEndX13]

I got sent here by the Something Scary forums. The second half of this video REALLY reminded me of the Slender Man. Now I can't go in the woods anymore.

...and I don't like fairies anymore.

[KoneyChang]

I don't like fairies anymore! D':<

[runswithlolwolves]

Two top comment are practically the only two reactions you can have for these stories, your either

Entralled and completly Inspired by these storys and plan to tell them to your kids as classics or 2

Scared out of your fucking mind!!!

[missy52600]

sitting in a corner babbiling about fairys and forestsand flower and crossing off sleeping on my check list

[mehomboy]

This was really good

[MsSomethingsilly]

Children see things, things grown ups can't or won't see. When I was a kid, I used to see weird things in the dark but my parents didn't believe me.

Even though i'm 21 now, I still see or simply feel someone in the room with me when I turn of the light.

I guess I will never grow up. :)

[HybridD91]

@MsSomethingsilly You will be surprised what you see while staring in the dark with your eyes straining to use as much light avaliable.

[MsSomethingsilly]

@HybridD91 Even when there is light coming thorugh the window and from the hall? I never go to sleep without some light source. :)

[FirePhonixWolf]

@MsSomethingsilly children are naturally more sensitive to such things, i'm 14 and still am. its not weird mind you, its just... what would you call it? i suppose it would be that some people are more attuned to they'r surroundings than others ^_^.

[MsSomethingsilly]

@FirePhonixWolf I definitely agree with you. :)

[FirePhonixWolf]

@MsSomethingsilly nice to know someone does ^_^

[danphan32]

@FirePhonixWolf when i was 4 i wasn't sleepy. One night i was kicking the bed for no reason, when i saw somthing look at me and then i heard "Quit..." and it was gone. O-O

[FirePhonixWolf]

@danphan32 usually that is the common symptom for Sleep Paralysis. it happens to almost anyone. i'm not saying what you saw couldn't be real, in fact its quite possible that it was. you might google Sleep Paralysis and see if it fits. ^_^

[BreathOFLaminin]

@FirePhonixWolf That's not sleep paralysis...he said he wasn't sleepy and was out of his bed, as he was kicking it. Sleep paralysis is precisely as it says, you wake up but your brain thinks your still asleep so you're just in bed and can't move any part of your body. But, even some cases that may "fit" sleep paralysis aren't necessarily sleep paralysis, such as a people abducted by so-called aliens (i.e. fallen angels), as it is impossible to enter REM sleep to Dream while under sleep paralysis

[FirePhonixWolf]

@BreathOFLaminin exactly my point, though probably explained better. ^^

[MyCryBabyLove]

@MsSomethingsilly haha same here, but i have the cure always let the light on !

[FalseProphet501]

@MsSomethingsilly Read the Moon Bog by H.P Lovecraft, you REALLY can't sleep after you hear it. I'm a total chicken but I LOVE horror stories!

[MsSomethingsilly]

@FalseProphet501 hahaha, me too. :) I'm reading The Wordsworth Book of Horror Stories at the moment but I will definitely read it. :)

[TheJustCreative]

@MsSomethingsilly And they were right:) Kids have much greater imagination than adults, so every move, every object in darkness can look scary for them. Then they grow up and stop being scared (good) and use imagination (bad).

[NeoLightElectro]

@TheJustCreative back when i was younger, i would have toys sitting on a table in my room. when my mom would turn the lights out, i would stare at that table trying to go to sleep. though, i knew by heart what was sitting there, i still would see different things in the dark. and yes, it was creepy.

[TheMagnificentPony]

@MsSomethingsilly try waking up at 2 am looking in the eyes of a floating head :P

[missy52600]

wasn`t planning on sleeping tonight anyway........(THAT WAS EPICLLY CREEPY)

p.s. thats a good thing in my book ;)

[AlexCookieNinjaa]

And i never woke up..

[NeverEndingBlackHole]

Haha, joke's on you; I WASN'T PLANNING ON SLEEPING TONIGHT ANWAYS... Yeah.

[catz537]

I love this vid it's one of my favorites out of all the ones you made xD

[drraygun]

wouldnt it be more fun if there was a fairy monster that tried to eat children and she didnt die she just went to another world maby? i dunno some thing more creative and fun that captain psychological analysis in tha last comment hehe

this ladies stuff is brilliant :)

[MechanicalAnimal6661]

I perceived this as the little girl isn't really asleep, but she is in denial of life's circumstances, so she thinks it's all 1 big nightmare. I saw the fairy as a mother-figure that went from nurturing to abusive.When the fairy disappears, I think she died, was taken away by social workers, or the little girl ran away from home. I consider the forest to be the chaos that her life is in either living alone,on the street,or being put into foster care.A sad life is what's "waiting for her"

[DeadSandPulse]

Slendy in the forest eating children?

[ImALittleCrazyXD]

I WILL NEVER SLEEP AGAIN. O.O

[JelenaJileyJemi4ever]

the voice is defintley going to haunt me.

[TheMellojello21]

O.O

this is creepy...

...

...

...

ITS AMAZING!

[meepmoopop]

im not afraid of death, im really not...hieghts are a different matter:(

[sk8apunkgirl]

im lookin aroun d me room now. im sittin in the dark an me xmas lights are shit.

[ShadowCutieChloe]

the only thing we have to fear is fear it self.....death can be scary but it comes and goes but fear is always with you...like the fear when your dead that you have sined to much and think "i'm goin to hell...i'm not a good human i have sined to much" or the fear some one you know and love might....fear is always with you but its up to you if you want it to take your life and live in fear.....or live with fear....its up to you and only you........

~ShadowCutieChloe~

[Picturecat11]

This is so true. I dont necesarilly fear death, I more or less along the lines fear what or if anything at all may come after it...

[Homopsycho1]

Awesome, I live for videos like this!

[JeZebeL2600]

I AM SO FUCKING CREEPED OUT

[AunShiLord]

It reminds me "The Path" video game.

[9Chasestudios]

o-o creepy

[ReesyRuby]

Haha " And all the time, she was getting bigger, and bigger, with scary teeth. And i thought, 'Aren't fairies suppose to be tiny?'" lol

But in seriousness, truly genious. All of your scary cartoons are.

[ReesyRuby]

@ReesyRuby *genius

[lovernotahater4427]

I really shouldn't have watched this at this time of night.. I get nightmares.

[HAIRJELLYMAN]

yep, i'm on the weird side of youtube again.

[nightclaw66]

THIS VOICE IS GONNA GIVE ME NIGHTMARES

[Terra1311]

what was waiting for her.

[GenericFantasyXO]

@Terra1311 We dont know, because it represents what waits for you after death... nobody knows.

[JelenaJileyJemi4ever]

@Terra1311 her afterlife



[bdlovednbWTfred]

O.o

[saryenn]

yey, I got to be the 666th comment on the scary story...can't wait to sleep tonight, I'm sure my head will cook-up some enchanting stuff *faint smile* good job though, and really like the way the text goes. There are some really nice pauses that keep the rhythm from being predictable , and still sounds childish.

[saryenn]

...can't even imagine what reaction someone could have if watching this stuff while high....

[loveisloudermusicfan]

Where do you get your ideas for your stories??? They are fantastic! :D

[SadLittleEmo100]

blew my mind i loved this!

[hungdinh75]

Let me see if my interpretation is correct on this one. Oh how romantic, a fairy, a little girl, a flower, and the wandering fairy that eats and eats everything. the flower (like in beauty and the beast) represent the life source.

the dark forest that was still with her represent the blockade of the mind (A coma perhaps)

She was alone and lonely even when not dreaming, it seems that the Doctors and her parents stop caring thus the fairy has caught up and ate her.

[jenjy888]

Holy crap that was scary never be on youtube at midnight and watch these it is frickin scary. i do admire how creepy they are tough

[xSeinMusikMaedchenx]

Ger. Translate

Eines Tages werde ich einschlafen und nie mehr aufwachen. Und in meinem Traum sehe ich eine Fee und sie hält eine Blume. Und sie ist soooo hübsch. Aber dann öffnet sie ihren ganzen Kiefer und isst die Blume. Aber sie war immer noch hugrig, weil sie ihren Kopf zu mir umdrehte und mich ansah. Und ich weiß, dass sie mich fressen will. Aber ich bin schneller und ich renne und renne und renne und renne. Aber sie rennt, und rennt und rennt, HINTER MIR! Und mit der zeit wurde sie immer

[xSeinMusikMaedchenx]

größer! Mit gruseliger Grimasse. Und ich denke: " Waren nicht alle Feen KLEIN?". Und schlussendlich war sie weg. Wie alles andere. Aber der Wald war da und ich hatte große Angst. Mehr noch als mit der Fee. Und ich wünschte, sie wäre noch hier. Denn was immer wartet in meinem Traumwald auf mich, ist nicht hunrig. Aber es wartet auf mich ohnehin. Eines Tages werde ich einschlafen und nie mehr aufwachen.

[nathaliasarczuk]

scaaaary...

[DanceDanceCrazy555]

she should meet stanley hes real nice

[FortitudoProductions]

@DanceDanceCrazy555 Lolololololololol! XD

[FortitudoProductions]

@DanceDanceCrazy555 Maybe instead of the flower, she could have eaten cucumber!

[HeyShay43]

i think she's in a coma cuz at the beginning it looks like her head gets split open and she starts to bleed, then the blood trails off and turns into the beginning of the scene, ya know i'm not even gonna try to figure it out cuz whatever it is it's sad and it's making me all depressed

[XxElmoTimexX]

What was waiting for her ????

[TheOceanBreathsSalty]

Like I wasn't depressed enough :<

[HallucigeniaIV]

It reminds me of the game Limbo... absolute genious, I must say!

I think I'll have epic dreams tonight :D

[yanichabella]

the girl is def in a coma. can you hear the life support in the background, its helping her breath. Katy this is greaaaat! AND IM GETTING YOUR BOOK!!!!!

[EricaSaysWhat]

The best work you have done yet. I admire you so much.

[humphrke]

Wow.. so pretty. And really kreepie. (meant to spell it that way xD)

[rosebud204]

....my favrittee :) i love the ash tree to :), it sounds similar to this :)

[JeanMidnight]

You are one of my absolute favorite storytellers! These stories easily bring me back to a time when everything was transformed in the dark, when something was in the closet and under the bed just lurking and waiting. The quit horror a child suffered nearly every night, I'm there. I feel it now, just when I thought it was over! Lol, great job. I love it!

[0LST]

@JeanMidnight i have 2 top scary story tellers :3 Moonraven09 and Katytowell i don't know who to pick for first cuz they're both amazing Storytellers

[lolitamisa77]

well this kid has problems

sound like me

[grumpyclouds93]

This is amazing...and creepy. Pardon my french, but that had to be the craziest fucking cartoon I've ever watched.

[MandyLuvsJB1]

Ohhhh! hellll nawww!

[Xnick6366X]

Is it bizzare that the first time I watched this I expected the fairy's head to open like a mouth? Because I find that the most chilling part for some strange reason. :P

[actingislife100]

OMG THIS KATY IS TRYING TO GIVE ME NIGHTMARES!!!!!!!

[Jade8824]

Are you like emo. goth suicidal or somethin?? These vidoes are dark and depressing. I like em but i was just wonderin if u were any of those. Great ideas!

[blackoversatin27]

@Jade8824

i'm a goth. but not my sister. we both watch anyway.

[Mewmewluver321]

well nothing beats the pressure of silence

[Lalleleli]

ohh, so cute and what program you used?

[Lalleleli]

I didn't understand the last part when she says : "...and in my dream forest wasn't hungry...but it was waiting for me anyway..."

Which place is the real world????

[lagoondiver]

Your video's are amazing

[emilyschell1]

Thank you, friend who sent this to me right before bed. I officially hate you.

[N1GHTtime]

da gurl sounds creepy\



[PhsycedelicPhish]

I think she's in a coma and that's the oxygen pump in teh background. The flower is life and the fairy represents death getting bigger and catching up with her. The forest is when she's closest to death and the glow is whats waiting in the afterlife.

[megakittypunk]

@PhsycedelicPhish yes but the fairy/death ate the flower

[PhsycedelicPhish]

@megakittypunk Exactly, so Death is eating her life up, and getting bigger and bigger, that's her dying.

[megakittypunk]

@PhsycedelicPhish ah ok. it makes since now

[ImagineTrio]

@Traumashake ohhh thaank you!:D LOOL

[MegaTryer]

This is soooo amazing :)

[dragonessgirl626]

i adore reading all the diff interpretations!!

[ImagineTrio]

what's the music in the background?

[Kiba989]

what piece of music was used in this fun cartoon

[tempuramonster]

Chanced upon this while searching Burton's shorts. Glad I did, because this is genius. The font could've been a little more, creepier though, hehe.

[WeirdIdeasCO]

hmm let me take a crack of the interpretation. For me the fairy represented death and how scary it can be. Each day it seemed to get closer and bigger. And the "thing" that was waiting for her was the "after" from death. Sometimes the unknown from after death is way more scary than death itself. How did I do?

[Salocinist]

@WeirdIdeasCO Actually it sounds more like a nightmare to me. It kind of feels familiar to a few dreams I've had growing up...

[halakon666]

@WeirdIdeasCO Actually you're half right... the fairy is "death" how preatty it can be sometimes and how horrifying it can be. as for the forest she's in a coma so she scared because we fear what we dont know"wahts waiting for her" also thinking too much drives us crazy, insane and that is the forest... make sence???

Thats why she wished the fairy would come back so she could die and end the dream or rest in peace what ever you want.

[WeirdIdeasCO]

@halakon666 i dont think shes in a coma i think she is experiencing death (the fairy) normally "i fell asleep and never woke up" and the forest is her journey to the "after" of death

[halakon666]

@WeirdIdeasCO do you hear the breathing machine?

also a coma is like a dream?

or you might be right, for what i remember some kids die in their sleep... I forgot whats it called but they could be normall and out of sudden die... however Ithink that is more common in babys and infants.

[HeyShay43]

@halakon666 it's called SIDS (sudden infant death syndrom) and i think if u combind ur idea and WeirdIdeasCO's idea of the story then i'm pretty sure tht's wht it's supposed to mean, but i rlly don't know, i just wanted to take part in a conversation cuz i was bored^^

[acamp1995]

@WeirdIdeasCO

Sounds about right.

[Terra1311]

@WeirdIdeasCO actually since the tags it says coma and you hear a breather in the background i think its a coma.

[tweetypie726]

i dont realy get what its bout!!! but i luv it anyways!!! Xx

[TheDragonclaw545]

You're stories remind me of Coraline o.o

[TheLinneaViola]

This is so amazing! I love the story telling and the ''lost child'' voice :D

[JelloFlavoredSkittle]

-.- I would run from the fairy right from the beginning LOL

[JelloFlavoredSkittle]

I learned something new today: Never drink an energy drink before watching this at midnight. -.-

[ShapeshifterGirl1]

i loved it!! ive been watching all of ur videoes nd i love them all...it started w/ the little girl who was forgotten by absolutely everyone >:3 anyway..keep rocking those crazy awsome stories!!!!!<3<3<3<3

[pyralynne13]

[PrincessPinay471]

"Aren't Faries ... Supposed to be ... Tiny?"

[Labtop215]

It's called a lecture on soscio-economics.  Gaaawd your so dramatic.

[solarr1024]

Katy, i hope you read this.

I found skary net when i was little ... That was like 5-6 years ago,since then i'm inlove with your work. You are an amazing artist, and i love the site and you. Please make more wonderful videos like these ! :)

[slip670]

this is some creepy shit....LOVE It!

[AymsterSilver]

I never noticed this until now, but in the background you can hear a medical ventilator...I guess that assures us that the kid is in a permanent coma... o.o

[HiddenBehindShadows]

@AymsterSilver I don't think I ca hear it, what do medical ventilators sound like?

[WraithLord900]

Awesome!!!

I love how the kids voice corresponds with the actions happening around her. It's sooo
