 It was about 14 days ago to today. A friend of mine has spiraled into activities that practically crumbled any innocent thoughts about cartoons altogether, some very distressing things. So I'll explain this story quickly as I can. She recently learned how to export digital ISOs from straight to DVD media, her main focus was SpongeBob because she was super obsessed with it and never got to watch it much as a kid. We spent a lot of time working out how to download this and how to make sure what programs work and something about setup involving a DVD burner. But then she finds a website of these episodes online to download as ISOs and this is the part where everything turns. She went on telling me about a linked episode in the season to category that intrigued her and said this. So each set list episodes go from SpongeBob video SBS to EP01.ISO, all the way to SpongeBob video SBS to EP35.ISO, but under that one was SpongeBob video S2EP35 underscore 2.ISO, which I presumed originally was the second episode of Episode 35 after Idiot's Box and Band Geeks. But I guess I'm wrong because SpongeBob video SBS to EP35.ISO has both those episodes, why is there two? Persuaded her that it was probably the same episode Link just uploaded twice, a lot of websites like this can upload the same thing twice mostly on accident but that's what me and her thought before initially. Hey, you're probably right. Still pretty happy I get to watch these finally, I'm squeezing myself with joy. That was the last message she shot me before going inactive for a fortnight straight without any given reason. There were no updates, no replies, no responses during that time being. And after all that she finally wrote to me today, with her little story of what transpired during that time. SENT, 11.34 AM. Hey OP. I apologize for not getting back to you for so long, but I had to stay off the computer in fear of what happened. That link, that fucking second link left me in a state of paranoia I can't describe. It's almost indecipherable, and you're probably not gonna believe me when I say this, but I'm dead serious from what I saw. After watching most of the SpongeBob episodes I missed out on, I decided to check out that extra link and it downloaded an ISO that had an episode I'm scared going back detailing. It had that same happy intro, but there was no title card or episode name, it just started with shots of SpongeBob's house. SENT, 11.51 AM. When SpongeBob did appear on the screen, he was just standing right in front of his door facing the screen, and he started talking like if he was speaking to me, but no dialogue came out at all. I heard happy music during this scene and immediately out of nowhere. His face went from his supernatural happy look, his jaw open and his pupils shrunk and down to dots. He just kinda jittered there with that thugged up face and it gave me shivers. It went to a shot of him walking with that same look on his face, he was walking forward to the Krusty Krab, but going backwards. SENT, 12.04 PM. It shone the inside of the Krusty Krab but there was no character inside, no one was in there, but shots of tables, windows and the kitchen. Then I was immediately assaulted with probably the most horrifying display of multiple Squid words sitting at tables, Squidward's head up on the ceiling, looking at the screen with horrifying smiles with SpongeBob in the center joining along with them. One other Squidward ran from left to right across in front of the screen smiling and looking at me like the others. SpongeBob was laughing, like how he does in the show, but it was more forced and aggressive. The sound, if you could even call it that, that came from them was like low dutter all humming followed by music that played at a fast pitch. Then it just suddenly buffered on them and they all disappeared again, like if they weren't even there. SENT, 12.19 PM. The next scene had SpongeBob in a room with that bam smile, only slightly less terrifying and just stopped bed center in the middle of the screen. He just kinda stood there for minutes, then out of nowhere, his eyes just go green and it played the really sad metal music. SpongeBob started speaking again, but in Patrick's voice. I couldn't tell what he was saying, but I definitely know it was Patrick's. After the music faded, SpongeBob's eyes faded to white and were replaced with cartoony exes. That coming returned again as random shots of locations appeared again in quick succession, then it cut to black out of nowhere. SENT, 12.30 PM. The last thing I saw was a shot of both SpongeBob and Patrick in horrifying skin-chilling detail. Some weird out-of-place music playing here, with that image of SpongeBob smiling right at me and Patrick. I could not tell you how loud I screamed when I saw this frame. There were captions underneath them that read out in loving memory of, with a name that wasn't recognizable, before it faded away and my PC just shut off after that, that image. That fucking image. I can't get that out of my head, ever.
