Oh my god, the last song! How many of you get a panic attack from that song, Where is the torch...where is the torch...and then the game over screen..i did dream nightmares about that Grim Reaper :D USE > PITCHFORK > SELF <3
when i was 6 years old i was scared to play this game i always called my dad to play it for me i always had the lights on even in 8 bit scared me lol i was even scared to push the power on and when the grim reaper appeared and it made that deathtone i ran out of my room crying my eyes out and said i died daddy lmfao XD omfg what a hilarious moment
I think "Metallica" should do a rehash of the soundtrack of this game, they'd be perfect, Lars Ulrich on drums. I am no musician but I always thought how it coulld sound to try "metal" style for some of the songs.
This game fucked up my life like 8 years or something. This game scared me soo mutch that i had trouble to sleep lol.. and it was cuz of the music. Its funny how a 8-bit music can be so damn creepy. When i listen to these soundtracks now i still get these creepy chills. Im not joking lol cuz this game fuked upp my childhood hahaha. Even tho i shouldnt had played this game i NEEDED to contiune.
Now i just shared one of my most embarrassing secrets :P
@Uunamedd Don't worry, I'm sure we all got scared from this game at one point or another. I used to get scared hearing the music change when the torch was about to run out. I'd be like "Oh shit... find a torch ffs! I'm gonna die!!!!!"
@Uunamedd Its cool, this game stole many hours of sleep and gave me insomnia. But a few years ago I had to conquer it, I had to return and finally beat this game. Now I remember it by heart and gonna be redoing my playthrough of it for youtube since I had horrible audio quality
nice vid dude, ive had this song stuck in my head since i played it when if first come out on the nintendo and it was the first 1 u played out of all of them.
played this game all the time as a kid used to scare the hell out of me because you never knew what was going to come out and kill you for doing some random action like opening the wrong coffin or smashing the wrong mirror lol
The music for this game gives me chills. It doesn't matter, death theme or not... my memories of this game consist of me feeling cornered at all angles with no clue how to do anything.
This game brings back memories to fifth and sixth grade in 1989-1990. I used to get up at five in the morning to play this game. Chilling music, and spooky theme. The good old days!
I have to agree with this guy. On another video with Shadowgate music, I mentioned having this play whenever someone first arrives at my house, and having a narrator describing everything they see for them. :D
if you just look at the cover you can imagine this game got to be scary...but i love this game. the torch music is the scariest one. but the danger music too...i mean the music strating play at 1:07
@MachoMadness60 It wasnt the death theme that scared me, but rather the "pre-death" music with the almost burned out torch. Wow, I still remember how much I hate that lol.
yay, i'm going to do a guitar cover of this vid with the full soundtrack! these tunes used to freak me out when i was a kid and played this on the nes, it's payback time bitch!
I love you for putting the twilight theme in here first <3
(and i dont mean the movie of fairy twinkly gay vampires)

This is the music. Nowadays I can find many simulated atomospheric orchestra BGM, but I cannot find this kind of really musical BGM.

My favorite is the music when your torch goes out. It's cool! Back when I was playing I would freak out trying to get another one lit.

You didn't include the title music and the ending music, and you cut the torch music short. You can post videos as long as 10:59 you know.
