A Game of Hide & Seek Goes VERY Bad in this Twisted Horror Game! [The Fridge Is Red + Secret Ending]

[@AlphaBetaGamer]

Note: This is one of the stories from the The Fridge is Red horror game anthology and it includes the secret (happy) ending. You can check out a playlist of the rest of the stories that I've covered from The Fridge is Red Here: kzbin.info/aero/PLPwIGGh-tc7GQYV1E5sy__OcWzsB0W8da

Cases of strangulation of children in refrigerators with handles did occur, and quite often. In 1956, the US Congress even passed a law banning the use of such refrigerators. And in my opinion, this fact makes the plot of the game more frightening.

[@Skalakalava]

nice fact bro

[@spinafire]

@@SpockLover27 They're called "handles" because they could wrap around the neck of a small child, like hands 🤔

[@lancepage1914]

Those old fridges were built like tanks.

[@Victor-056]

@@spinafire Correction, the reason such fridges were banned was because the handle served as the locking mechanism, and to open it, you needed to pull the handle a certain way. The door was only able to be opened by the handle as a result, meaning if someone was trapped in the fridge, they cannot open it.

[@101Volts]

@@Victor-056 I can imagine it was law to *remove* doors from fridges in junkyards, then. Oh, and I saw scans of a 1950s / 1960s children's safety manual... It had some gems; from the Fridge death, to being run over in a pile of leaves, to (not a death) a 10 - 12 year old kid setting his house on fire and looking like he just saw Hell in nightmares for the first time.

[@rokaq5163]

Been binging this anthology's playthroughs by ABG and, gotta say, they really know how to define their style. The horror itself could use a bit more thought, some scares are repeated over different stories and most of them really don't land as they should, but other than that the subjacent stories, unsettling animations and creative audio work make for a very unique experience.

[@pyrosnineActual]

So the best way I can understand this, is that each game of the anthology is exploring either a dream or a memory of the shit father, whose wife died. This game is a "memory" that explains how we got stuck sitting in front of a demon fridge, and why the daughter is there- and each of the little girl's drawings we find are of the different games of the anthology. Basically, he is traumatized and haunted by his wife's death, loses his major job, and takes up appliance repair to make ends meet, but falls deep into alcoholism, making him fall asleep at the worst time. The two endings - one is a "realistic" take on what's going on, and perhaps the other nightmares and main gameplay are the fevered imagination of one father's failure by getting drunk and passing out during "hide and seek". The other one is the "the fridge is an SCP and really did eat his daughter, and psychologically tormented him", but at least he's reunited with his dead family?

[@PIXELSHIFTINC-EMMORTAEL]

This is like the third video I’ve seen where he eats his computer. Man can’t resist grabbing a byte.

[@CPUT99]

saw this and was instantly reminded of a traumatic episode of Punky Brewster I saw as a kid, it was an old children's show from the 80s where a kid hid in a fridge and was then found later, passed out.

[@haseo8244]

There was an old meme of kids playing hide and seek and one hide in old dumped refrigerator in the rural areas and died. That was from 80s as well too.

[@eg-draw]

@@haseo8244 how is that a meme? It's real stories.

[@tracer.s]

Oh God, the real horror of all of this is that kids are calling urban legends "memes" now

[@spinafire]

Funny enough, I think I preferred the quiet and subtleness of the first red fridge I saw - it had a silly looking death animation, but the quiet sneakiness of it was more unsettling than the fridge waddling and having voice lines. I also feel like I missed something...how did the second ending occur differently?

[@anthonymarziano1921]

I'm confused what was the story some please I'm asking please tell me in the comments.

[@Melenam]

Old style fridges used to have a latch handle on them, meaning they could not be opened from the inside. Kids would climb into them for stuff like hide and seek and suffocate because they were air tight. It led to a ban on that type of fridge in the 50's. I think nowadays if you do have an old style fridge and take it to a dump they have to break the door off just in case. Seems like the red fridge games are all about the father feeling guilty and getting some silent hill style punishments for his alchoholism, child neglect etc.

Not sure what it was going for here. Crass? Absurd? Funny? Self-aware? Uncomfortable? Scary? Silly? The absurd beer VFX, stock phone SFX, surreal VO, the bleeding fridge, bathtub full of piss, the music from the radio... Not sure if this was made by a kid (that would explain the "drunkenness" effect) or a troll! As for the 3rd ending, wtf is Salad Fingers doing in that fridge?!

[@rafsandomierz5313]

I think the "piss" inside the bathtub are supposed to indicate that the guy didn't cleaned his bathroom thus the water got stale and toxic after that much time, you can tell by in what state bathroom is anyway.
