Ice King's Tapes If They Were Analog Horror [Adventure Time]

Man i was totally expecting the Crown to turn Simon into this feral husk of himself that only knows how to kill any invaders to his domain. Indeed, while we see a husk, its not of a feral king, but a once intelligent man that finally succumbed to the ages of his curse....

"Leaving it on its current host is the best course of action." Nah bro that just gave me the chills, because you're basically left only knowing that this husk was once a brilliant man with a life just like yours, and you're supposed to "leave him be"

If Tik Tok users see this, they will say that it is canon or that Adventure Time is the most mature series out there.

I think this is the reality where the crown was just pure evil inside, not preserving its’ hosts. The crown in canon adventure time seemed to not like converting people into these maddened clowns of ice. It seemed to especially like Simon, as it is revealed to feel horrible in the episode where Ice King is put in jail to cure the Candy Kingdom of his icy beard flu, and in the Farmworld timeline, where Simon gives his life to stop the Mutagenic Bombs, the crown grieves and suffers, unleashing a spasm of magic that froze the Earth for 400 years. It’s sad, really, imagine being a crown that turns its hosts into demented frosty parodies, and you, the crown, don’t like doing that.

The description of turning in to "A frozen corpse" held together by magic is frightening but so cool

Ice King: Now you know my dirty secret...! I... used to wear glasses! sobbing continues

The way this is written/ presented reminds me a lot of “The Fly” it’s so cool. The idea of a self imposed madness transforming a scientist into a creature of horror, and even though they’re barely holding on they still document their findings on themselves.

Honestly a lot of stuff from the mushroom war has a lot of potential to be made into analogue horror. Imagine a small webseries about the last remnants of human society trying to doccument the goo monsters and other abominations that were unleashed when magic was reintroduced into Ooo. Amazing video man, you did a great job. Looking foward to more.

I feel like bubble gum made this tape, it seems like something she would do.

Man, that episode was a real gut punch. Tom Kenny's performance really sold it for me.

Cool ass design for Ice King at the end. I actually could see something like that happening if the crown became unstable and Adventure Time was more mature/gory.

I like how it’s still Adventure Time. Finn and Jake are Finn and Jake, and Gunter is just there. I wonder who made the video. I could see PB making these kinds of videos about potential threats, honestly. This reminds me of how that one scene with the tape in Fionna and Cake practically already was analogue horror. Almost.

Tom Kenny really can act as Simon. He should get more serious roles like Simon in the future.

While the show portrays Ice King's/Simon's delusional personality as a funny gag most of the time, the concept of the crown is pretty dark and morbid. You're basically a husk, a shell of your former self while wearing the crown. And while you're granted immortality basically, the cost is your sanity and physical appearance

This is truly horrifying and it looks like something, that could happen in the universe of Adverture Time.

This seems like a really cool quest that’d be in an MMO where you wander through the remains of society and find yourself in a lab with these warnings in them. Then as you continue you find what the tapes portray

I was going to type up a comment saying that ARGs are a fad but watching this video made me feel something. Hearing the transition from Simon Petritov to the ice king was melancholic and honestly something I deeply appreciated in this video. This wouldnt've nearly had as big of an effect without it.

I think one of my favorite pieces of random adventure time lore is that it is implied Santa Claus was real and was one of the crown's many wearers.

The way the crown is portrayed in this video makes it look like a goddamn scp. A crown that once it finds a host, it infects them with delusions and ideals created by a lost, almost godlike being who's whole element was the power of ice and frost? To the point that it makes them incredibly hostile once it finally drives them to the breaking point? Nevermind that there are no true limits to what said powers can do depending of the user that wears it, how strong is said power to delude and make their hosts insane? The curse it holds cannot be undone until the user is truly dead. Euclid class material right here. Or even Keter if you think about it, if a strong being with malicious intend wears it everyone is basically going through a new ice age.
