Generally speaking, cartoons are seen as a happy art form - people think of kids cartoon
shows or perhaps adult cartoons such as The Simpsons or Rick and Morty - sometimes they
can get dark - but never too disturbing.
Well, like everything we look at on this channel - theres always a dark side to everything
- including cartoons.
Today were gonna be looking episodes of your favourite cartoons that should never have
been aired - or should never have been made at all - my name is Danny Burke and this is
the Top 10 Creepiest Lost Cartoon Episodes.
Starting off at 10 we have SuicideMouse.avi[a].
This is the filename of a supposed unseen episode of Mickey Mouse.
Originally, people just thought it was a loop of Mickey walking past 6 buildings before
the clip faded to black.
He wasnt dancing or smiling, just walking - but other than that - it didnt seem too
creepy.
Everyone thought that there was nothing that came after - but after the clip was digitized,
people noticed the clip was a lot longer.
After a long period of darkness, it returned to Mickey walking.
There was now a gurgled cry in the background that got louder.
Then the picture changed, we see the sidewalk go in impossible directions - Mickeys face
curled into a smirk.
His face then began to fall apart, his eyes rolled to the bottom of his chin like marbles
in a fishbowl and his smile crept up to the left of his face.
The screaming noise continued until the 8 minute mark and then suddenly stopped as it
cut to the classic Mickey Mouse face at the end of every episode with what sounded like
a broken music box playing in the background.
The Disney employee who first watched this left the room and asked the security guard
to watch to the end.
Legend says that they never know what happened at the end because the security guard killed
himself soon after, right after repeating the phrase -Real suffering is not known- 7
times.
They say the file can still be found in the dark corners of the internet under the title
-suicidemouse.avi- …
Moving on to number 9 we have Squidwards Suicide.
Even if youve never watched Spongebob before - you probably recognise Squidward as a character
from the show - he's the grouchy foil to Spongebobs happy plans - but in this lost episode, things
took a much darker turn.
In 2010, a user posted a creepypasta online called Squidwards Suicide.
He claimed he had seen the lost episode during his internship at Nickelodeon's Studios.
At first, they assumed it was just an office prank but realised they were wrong as soon
as they played it.
The scene showed Squidward sitting alone on a bed while disturbing music gets louder in
the background.
The scene is spliced with quick flashes of dead children and gore - when it cuts back
to Squidward, his face is black with red eyes.
Eventually, a strange, detached voice tells Squidward to shoot himself with a shotgun
- he does - he dies - and the video ends.
Apparently the police investigated - but they couldn't find the culprit - and the video
has never surfaced online.
Probably just a creepypasta, but I really good one I think …
Next up at number 8 we have Mans Best Friend[b].
Thats the name of this lost episode of of Ren and Stimpy that aired in 2003.
It involved some aspects that the FCC did not agree was suitable to a young audience.
Ren and Stimpy are trained to be petter pets - Stimpy is given a cigar shaped dog treat
as a reward.
Their owner tells them to not go near the couch, but then says they should so that they
can be punished.
Ren freaks out and starts sobbing, Stimpy gets yelled out for going on the couch.
Their final lesson involves their owner teaching them to protect him.
He tells them to attack him with a wooden paddle - Stimpy refuses, but Ren, sick of
his treatment that day, beats his owner within an inch of his life.
The episode was banned and the director lost his job over this episode …
Moving on to number 7 we have Dead Bart[c].
According to internet legend, there was a lost episode of the Simpsons from the shows
first season.
It was entirely written by the shows creator, Matt Groening, who decided to keep it a secret
from the rest of the team.
They say that Matt has the ability to predict the deaths of every guest star who ever appeared
on the show.
He decided to put all of this power on display in this episode.
The episode itself was pretty horrific - it involved Bart dying in a plane accident.
The whole family mourned is death for a year, wasting away until they became skeletons.
When they visited his grave, every other gravestone belonged to celebrity guests who had appeared
on the show before - complete with their name, birth date and death date - and legend says
it was accurate with the people that had already died.
On top of that, some gravestones even featured people who hadnt been on the show yet.
Coming in at number 6 we have Ed, Edd n’ Eddy.[d] This was is the story of an episode
of Ed, Edd n’ Eddy that accidentally aired on Cartoon Network at 5 AM one morning.
Legend says that the animation was shoppy, the sound constricted and muffled.
A strange VHS line skittered across the screen.
The scenery was described as -overwhelmingly dark and depressing without changing props
and other background objects looked stormy- … the characters seemed agitated and angry
- they had tears in their eyes.
At one point, the animation switched to claymation - the quality of the episode deteriorated
from that point on - becoming almost unwatchable.
The episode ended with Johnny swallowing Nazzs head as she kicked and struggled.
He held her like this until she went limp.
A zoom in on his face revealed he had extremely small and realistic looking human eyes.
The camera then shows Eddys house and only Eddys house for the remaining 3 minutes - and
then it cut to black.
Next up at number 5 we have Candle Cove[e].
This is a famous creepypasta that was shared in the format of an email conversation on
a forum.
It starts with one user asking if anyone remembers a kids show called Candle Cove that was on
TV in the early 70s.
Other users start saying they remember it too - and together they piece together their
memories to figure out what the show was about.
Candle Cove revolved around a little girl who imagined herself to be friends with pirates.
Their ship was called the Laughingstock and there was a character called Pirate Percy
that got scared a lot.
Then their memories got creepier, they remembered the ship was a wooden smiling face with the
lower jaw submerged, it looked like it was swallowing the sea.
Then there was the villains sidekick, Horace Horrible, his face was just a handlebar mustache
above tall, narrow teeth.
The real villain though was simply called The Skin Taker - a dirty skeleton wearing
a brown top hat and cape, his glass eyes too big for his skull.
His mouth didnt open or close, his jaw just slid back forth.
When the girl asked him why this was, the skin taker told her it was to grind her skin.
Then, they remembered one episode where the show fade in from black - the camera cut between
the characters faces - and they were just screaming and screaming.
The girl was just crying, looking like shed been through hours of this.
The story ended with one of the users saying they had just visited their Mum at a nursing
home.
She said she was surprised that they remembered the show because when they were little, they
used to tell her they were going to watch Candle Cove - then they would tune tune in
to TV static and watch dead air for 30 minutes …
Next up at number 4 we have Akuruyo Bubbles[f].
Thats the name of this lost Powerpuff Girls episode.
For those of you that have never seen it - its about 3 manufactured superheroes created by
Professor Utonium.
The story I read about this episode is truly horrific.
It involves a twisted experiment which created a terrifying, murderous version of Bubbles.
She attacks the screen and dies in the end, with people staring at her lifeless mangled
body but then is brought back to life - only to stare into the camera with angry read eyes.
She breaths heavily, the sound gets louder - and then the episode ends in darkness.
Ive summarized it there - the full story is a lot more graphic, detailed and kinda confusing.
The actual episode hasnt even surfaced!
Moving on to number 3 now we have Tom’s Basement.[g] This is said to be the name of
a lost Tom and Jerry episode from many years ago.
Something seemed different this time though - Toms owner was being physically abusive
to Tom, stamping on his tail and telling him to never go down to the basement.
Tom and Jerry scrap in their normal way for a while with Tom getting pretty beaten up.
Jerry pushes Tom to the basement door and when his owner sees him there he goes ballistic
- he screams at Tom in a rage - Jerry appears to take pity on Tom and stabs the owner repeatedly
in his leg.
Tom opens the basement door and they carry the owners body down the stairs.
They find dozens of other bodies there, all showing signs of violent deaths.
They shake hands, seemingly pleased that theyd stopped this serial killer - but then an evil
look takes of Jerrys face - he stabs Tom and throws his body onto the pile.
The final scene shows Jerry putting up a for sign sale outside the house and laughing manically
…
Next up at number 2 we have Dougs Real Life[h].
Doug was one of the original Nicktoons on Nickledoean.
A few years ago, someone shared a story online of them discovering a strange episode of the
show that aired in 2005.
It started with a normal intro of line drawings - but the characters never appeared.
The lines continued as normal, reacting as if the normal characters were there.
Doug wasnt narrating his writing like normal - he just wrote in silence for about a minute
before the screen faded out.
It came back with large letters that said Dougs Real Life.
The episode started with Doug eating breakfast while the screen flashes strangely.
It starts again when Doug gets to school - the hallways were full of kids who had never seen
before.
It cuts and we see Doug returning home and greeting his dog, Pork Chop.
Another flash and Pork Chop turned into a hunk of rotting meat, Dougs house looked decrepit.
He walks into his house and talks to invisible people.
Another flash, and Doug was with his family, eating dinner.
His Mum answered the phone, he thought it was the teacher telling her about him flunking
the test.
He imaged them yelling at him, their faces becoming gigantic and then twisted and red.
The screen flashed back to his empty house, Doug was crying and apologizing to an empty
room.
He went to his bedroom which was empty except for a book and a pencil.
He started writing - this time, his voice was narrating - he said -I cant tell which
one is real-
And finally at number 1 we have Not Long Enough[i].
This is supposed to be a lost episode of Futurama - one of my favourite shows of all time.
The episode started with Fry, Leela and Bender making a delivery for Planet Express.
The planet they landed on only had one house surrounded by empty, desolate fields on all
sides.
A grotesque alien answered the door, he takes a box from them, opens it, pulls out a knife
and stabs himself.
The crew don't react - they simply walk back to the ship in silence.
They return to Earth to find New New York deserted - Fry walks to the cryogenics building
where he had been frozen and begins to cry.
He steps inside one of the pods and sets the time to the distant future.
The screen fades to black and when we return, we see that the machine has stopped working
- parts of Fry are decaying - bone is poking through his skin in several places.
-Its what I deserved- he mumbles as he climbs out of the pod.
His surroundings were psychedelic - strange patterns and colours swirled around.
Eventually we see that this was all in Frys mind - his final thoughts before he died,
his frozen body slumped outside of the cryogenic pod.
Bender and Leela walk into the room - Leela says -He got what he deserved- she checks
her watch and says -looks like we need to leave for our next delivery- … she took
a knife out of her pocket, places it in a cardboard box, and heads to the ship.
So - that was all very disturbing.
Perhaps some of these are based more in rumours than reality - but its your job to find out
the truth - personally, Im done for now - we could do a part 2 though if youd like - let
me know - thanks for watching as always, my names Danny Burke and Ill see you all in the
next video!
