We have one more thing to thank “Amnesia” for. Today, that’s half of YouTube, and the most successful channels are let’s play channels. These videos were so popular that they singlehandedly kickstarted the “let’s play” movement. I wasn’t the only one smitten by the smell of brown pants that “Amnesia” left everywhere it went everyone with a microphone played “Amnesia” and recorded it back in the day.

In fact, the first one I made was with a little horror game called “Amnesia: The Dark Descent”. Actually, I can’t complain because I’ve made “let’s play” videos with my friends too. You know, the people who scream at a game and then scream into a mic and get a million, billion views. Whether you love them or hate them, “let’s players” have completely changed the way YouTube works in the last seven years. Check back at every day for a new installment!

Here we will be taking a look back at everything spooky in both film and video games and analyze how horror has evolved over the last century.
