Robert Helpmann is the name of a bizarre
YouTube channel that surfaced on July 12
of 2015 that same day the channel
uploaded all 12 of their videos and
hasn't posted any updates ever since
regardless of this interest in this
strange channel has never faded
especially because each video centers
around what appears to be a dead body
wrapped in trash bags presumably named
Daisy based on the channels descriptions
and titles
the only other visible character in this
equation is a mysterious unnamed masked
man who occasionally can be seen caring
for the alleged corpse these videos
although seemingly nonsensical on their
own actually adhere to a basic storyline
when you watch them all in order and
they also bear subliminal messages
peppered throughout but more on that
later the first video titled Daisy
arrives is just that we see a lingering
shot of an empty chair before a series
of jumbled words are flashed on screen
followed by Daisy finally making her
appearance along with some reversed
audio that begins to play in the
background the fourth video is where
things start to change a little titled
chucking Daisy in this video is the
first appearance of another character on
screen only he appears to be under the
covers
this time the description states that
Daisy even being the age she is still
prefers to be tucked in and that she's
got a busy day ahead the video that
follows titled Daisy unwinds is the
first time we see the masked man in full
view attempting to feed the alleged
corpse the description of this one
points out that Daisy was relaxing after
a long stressful day as it was implied
in the previous upload what exactly
they're referring to is unclear the
channel 7th video called Daisy tumble
features Daisy at the bottom of a
staircase this time we can hear audio of
what appears to be a girl crying this
goes on for a few seconds before the
masked man can be seen on screen again
this time carrying Daisy away

the tenth video in this series is
probably the most well known in it we
see Daisy hung up on a wall and were
also given a seemingly unrelated
description that talks about Daisy using
an old swing set all afternoon that day
about thirty seconds in the masked man
returns this time with a knife and
begins to stab Daisy repeatedly before
the clip abruptly ends the following
upload appears to be a direct
continuation of this where the man can
be seen carrying Daisy into the kitchen
where according to the description they
were to clean up the mess Daisy just
made finally in the last video titled
Daisy leaves our story comes to an end
when the corpse somehow manages to
escape leaving the masked man visibly
upset to summarize everything based on
both what happens in the videos and
their descriptions it seems that the
basic gist of the story line is that
Daisy had been invited over to this
house by a group of people who she
apparently knew and trusted I say a
group because in the descriptions we is
used instead of I implying that there
are more people present than just the
masked man Daisy is a child most likely
an older one not quite a teenager yet
but still young enough to play on swing
sets and play hide and seek
the masked man seems to treat Daisy well
at first but progressively becomes more
violent eventually attacking her and
causing her to run away as I said there
are quite a few subliminal messages
sprinkled throughout the series the most
notable being a set of varying random
words that appear roughly halfway
through each video when put together
these words make up a poem the poem
tells the story of a woman who stumbles
upon a dead body outside of a church
she then contemplates what will happen
to her after her own death of course
following in the theme of corpses this
is probably meant to be a direct
reference to Daisy on top of all this a
lot of reverse Christmas music can be
heard
and if you watch closely in a few videos
there are random inanimate objects that
appear out of nowhere or shift in
position
so based off everything we've discussed
so far what just doesn't seem to add up
is Daisy herself why is she so often
personified and treated like she's alive
when she just isn't
well we've seen similar situations play
out in real life before take for example
the famous case of the Anatoly dolls in
2011 Russian linguist Anatoly Moscone
was arrested when several mummified
bodies of young girls were found in his
apartment and Natali however was no
murderer it turns out he was a grave
robber who would steal the corpses of
female children before bringing them
home naming them dressing them up and
even holding birthday parties for them
it was later determined that Anatoly was
suffering from schizophrenia where he
then went on to explain that he acted
out of pity for the dead girls believing
that they could eventually be revived
given this could it be possible that the
Robert Helpmann Channel is following a
similar narrative where Daisy isn't
actually alive and it's all in the
masked man's head of course in our case
Daisy is much more likely to be a DIY
Halloween decoration than an actual dead
body
I'm sure most of you have seen this
online throughout the years at some
point for those of you unfamiliar this
was a popular DIY Halloween project that
was floating around a few years ago
where you'd basically take various
bottles and containers and just arrange
them in a way that resembled a body
Daisy was most likely created using this
method
it goes without saying that this clearly
isn't real but that doesn't explain why
this series was created and then
promptly abandoned as I said all of this
channel uploads were posted on the same
day all with a set beginning middle and
end in mind this was clearly very
carefully planned out which makes it a
little odd that they throw it at us all
at once rather than gradually releasing
each episode like most series would at
this point it seems the Robert Helpmann
channel has done what it set out to do
and doesn't appear as though it's going
to be posting anything in the near
future
but who knows maybe there is more to
Daisy's story but all we can do for now
is wait
