To everyone saying it’s not the scary, it isn’t meant to be. But when you’re a kid some things scare you that aren’t scary to you when you’re grown. You have to admit that being 6 years old and watching a bearded man sneak into a girl’s room with semi-ominous music playing would scare a few kids, especially if they were so scared they didn’t focus on the happy ending of the short.

[@Pmp174]

[@99xara99]

I think this actually shows how much thought should go into childrens cartoons. I can totally relate that many things that do not seem so scary now, actually freaked me out as a child and stuck in my head. A little story that's just supposed to teach you about honesty, but what it does it create a fear of a man coming out of the clock in your bedroom! Personally I did not pay attention to the story as a child but more to the overall imagery, atmosphere and single interactions.

[@hypnos9356]

People are saying they can’t imagine this ever being creepy, but I totally could. As a child, this would _terrify_ me. Especially as a child with a fever, my nightmares would be riddled with this guy’s face until it became a much darker memory like what our guy Santa remembered. Currently? Yeah, it’s a little creepy, but it’s a cute story with an awesome recovery story attached to it. There’s always something inherently unnerving about the concept of lost media, but the recovery of this is an awesome tale of Internet legend.

[@avauwu2683]

I want to say that this dub completely changes the story. Sally knitted the gloves for her mother, they didn't magically appear in her hands. It was also her idea to help the wizard, she wasn't forced to. Similarly, she didn't have to say the truth at the end. Once she helped the wizard, he forgot about the whole thing. Also, when the wizard is going upstairs, the narrator doesn't say "but he didn't forget". Instead the wizard is saying "Sally... I'm coming for you, I'm at the first step... Sally I'm coming for you, I'm already at the sixth step... And I'm here." There also isn't anything said about her mother doing the same thing in the past. It instead ends wirh narrator creepily saying something along the lines of "but sometimes losing your gloves, doesn't end so well..." And bunch of other changes. Really interesting how much dub can change something

It's amazing how distorted Commander Santa's memory of the short was and how distorted the memory of everyone else who rememberd the short. Another comment said this, but it is very strange how people's memories distort over time. The cartoon was described as so horrifying that people were dismissing it as a Creepypasta. While the real cartoon is a bit strange, it is a perfectly innocent cartoon with unique animation, pretty and catchy music, an overall weird but charming feel (similar to Tim Burton) which is one of my favorite styles of art. As a person who finds psychology a fascinating passion, I personally think that the search for Clockman should be a psychology case study that should be taught in psychology classes.

[@colorbar.s]

[@-w-9950]

[@weetdoog]

i’m ten months late lol but anyways.. this short is czech and here in czechia, we have a really different style of cartoons. a looot of older cartoons are stop motion or with puppets and have like a slightly strange vibe to them. recently i saw that this short was a piece of creepy lost media and realized, that we have a lot of kids media that is just super normal to us, but strange and maybe unsettling to other countries. like the 'ratafak plachta' puppet from czechoslovakia that was also considered creepy to westerners while being a normal charming kids character to us

[@eltiolavara9]

i think its easily explained: one person misremembers something, that distorts one persons extremely loose memory of a thing they havent seen in years and more join in since "hey these people seem pretty sure about this" this is also why the mandela effect happens, but please dont quote me on this and look it up cause i may be explaining it badly
