[@sirderiusholmes2862]

I think that they blame not just AJ, but Twilight just as much, cause she was the one that gave her the potion in the first place, which would probably place half the blame on her, since it really was her fault deaths happened.

@@Overwatch2003I honestly feel nether are free of guilt in this story, Twilight knew very well the issues of the potion and was right to warn her, but still gave it to her, but at the same time Apple Jack could have looked to her friends for any kind of help to her situation with the farm but still chose the stubborn route. The only innocent ones in this story are the ones who know nothing as even those with knowledge of AJ being alive hide the truth of why so many was killed

[@Thatoneeclipsefan]

I think Twilight somehow ended up ingesting the same potion as applejack because starlight was confused and sad when she was dying. Why would she be confused and sad to applejack attacking her? Plus Twilight was holding a piece of glass and starlight had a slit throat. Maybe she’s seeing people as applejack and killing them in an attempt to stop “applejack”

[@StarlightUmbra]

That's what I think too. mayhaps twi figured she had the right dose of the potion and used it to prepare for the ceremony but In turn made the hallucination effects worse

[@bleachblondebunny8900]

I think it might be guilt causing her to hallucinat

[@moomoosparkes2097]

I agree here, I was thinking this throughout. It would make sense as she looked incredibly tired throughout the episode and never once slept, she was up doing work and couldn't seem to concentrate fully. It would make sense if she also took the potion and that resulted in hallucinations of starlight giving her the letter, and then the noises, and all the moments where the images would glitch and distort make me think that its all in her head from guilt. She's blaming applejack for all of this, when maybe applejack died in prison and that sent twilights grief over the edge. Maybe she thought she was strong enough for the potion not to effect her as much, as maybe she only drank a small amount, but it might have been amplified or triggered by a trauma such as applejack death. It does seem like twilight killed starlight. Even if applejack drank all of those potions, its unlikely she would have survived, plus the magic that seemed to barricade the door seems a bit much, applejack couldn't have done that, so it was probably twilights doing or starlight trying to keep twilight out. Its just a theory, but thats what I believe is happening. There's a few holes in this, but its not too far fetched when thought about while watching this. 😅

[@SphericalNervousSystem]

Another thing too- Starlight was attacked in her room- but at the same time she was the one who gave Twi the letter? Why is she in her room if she knows what happened with Applejack? She doesn’t seem like the type to hide away in fact she would’ve joined Twi in looking for Applejack. Her room was destroyed to and the artwork points to Starlight possibly being attacked in her sleep because she’s in her bed. It must’ve been Twilight

[@adjaestefany3183]

(first of all, sorry if there are any mistakes, I'm Brazilian and I'm using Google translate) I think so too, because Twilight looked very tired so I don't doubt that she ingested at least some of the potion and because she was an alicorn she must have thought it would be stronger to cope with the side effects. And there are several things in the video that make it clear that it really must all be in Twilight's head.For example, Applejack escaped from prison out of nowhere, from her appearance she seemed to be very weak to have managed to escape from prison, at least by brute force, And I think that even if a guard had let her escape because he felt sorry for her story, it would have been stupid to let a pony who killed other ponies running away, And how did she deliver it to the castle and deliver it to Twilight's potions location without anyone seeing? This is very strange. And it's also very strange that Applejack is still alive after drinking all the potions, Twilight herself said that some of those potions couldn't be consumed by ponies, So it is very unlikely that Applejack would have been able to survive after taking the potions, she should have died much earlier, And I also think it's very unlikely that she developed any type of immunity to the side effects of the potions. Another thing that points to this is at some points in the video the images are distorted as if they were hallucinations.There is also this thing about Starlight being in her room, this is very strange, because if she gave the letter to Twilight, she should have looked for applejack together with Twilight , if she knew Applejack could be there why would she stay in the room instead of helping Twilight?And also why was the door difficult to open? This suggests that Starlight could be trying to stop Twilight from entering.And it also makes no sense for Starlight to be confused by Applejack's attack, this further shows that Twilight was the one who killed her.

Riiiight... *Apple Jack* did it 😈

[@nonamenoname9322]

I feel like there’s going to be a twist where Applejack was never there and Twilight just losing her mind from the guilt and will eventually confesse to everyone but she did, by accident. Heck, maybe it turns out Applejack was dead the whole time or still withering away in her prision while Twilight is going on a rampage to kill an Applejack that is not even there. That would be cool. Applejack has super powers, Applejack can doge all attacks, Twilight has a shard of glass while Starlight is bleeding out from a cut, it is all obvious where this whole story is going. I am convinced it is all in Twilight’s head. Maybe Twilight will end up exposing herself in an unintentional confession. If it was the real Applejack, I think the attack on Starlight would have been more personal and symbolic, such as breaking the jaw of the new “Element of honesty” or something. The real AppleJack is probably dead or horribly atrophied in a prison cell still, barely clinging onto the will to live. That is my theory. Great reading as always!

[@acrazysheepdog1555]

It could be true, because how did AJ get out of prison? How did she break into the room? How did AJ not die from drinking so many of those potions? There is the question if she imagined Starlight giving her that letter about AJ, and if AJ did escape, maybe she simply went somewhere else entirely and the mere mention of her managing to escape was all that was needed to finally make her snap. Probably reading too much into it, but it’s fun to speculate.

[@HarleyQuinn-mv5me]

Actually I hope so...not would make sense... How did starlight had her neck bleeding if Applejack be just kicking her... She not the type who will hold a knife...

[@EragonaRose]

This could explain, for example, why AJ couldn't physically hurt Twlight, she literally acted around her like a ghost rather than a living person, as if she didn't exist. Besides, AJ looks like a skeleton, it's impossible that she had enough strength to get out of prison on her own, let alone break into the lab that was secured with a magic lock (unless someone helps her, but I highly doubt it). In addition, the last moments of Starlight's life describe her being surprised that Twlight was mourning her and taking pity on her. It's probably not a coincidence

[@AveryCaddick]

One thing I noticed was the glitches. In the first Apple Sleep Experiment, the glitches happened around Applejack after she begins her descent into madness. Here, it's happening around Twilight. So, you may be onto something. The only question is, at the end, who hit Twilight over the head and why... It could be Applejack, but what if it was somepony who saw what Twilight did and took action? Also, wasn't Applejack making her escape? We won't know until the other parts are released, of course, yet it's fun to think about😉

[@yourfreakreation1790]

I really hope you’re wrong, I really wanted AJ to actually appear in the story and be the sole bringer of justice.

Thx for giving the second part we never knew we needed even after all this time!) 💚

[@KitsuneRokaku]

*Spoilers for Part 1* This reads like a story from Edgar Allan Poe. I'm calling it now, Twilight took the potion and she's now suffering from hallucinations. She's imagining AJ is doing this when it's Twilight all along. I could be wrong but that's just a theory I got from reading it A few clues that make me think this: 1) The distortion Twilight is hearing is similar to the distortion AppleJack heard in the hospital. It sounds different but it's similar in nature 2) How did AJ know about Twilight's secret lab? If that lock Twilight used had a protection spell on it, I don't think brute force is gonna make it pry open no matter how hard AJ kicks it (especially with how emaciated she looks, a light breeze could knock her over) 3) How exhausted everyone looks whilst putting the memorial together. Everyone is on edge, even Fluttershy who is uncharacteristically frustrated. Wouldn't Twilight need a little "pick me up" to help her get things done? This is just what I think and I could be wrong. I've also been watching a lot on The Fall of the House of Usher series and how most of the deaths are caused by sleep deprivation and psychosis. Especially the characters Victorine and Leo. What's happening to Twi feels like what happened to them. I just got that feeling from it.

​@@avacadotoast5571 Yeah the reason why it didn't wear off is because she drank the whole thing. I know AJ was desperate but drank the whole thing was her big mistake always listen to the warnings she gives AJ.

[@Jb33124]

"Twilight Fuckin Sparkle" Right. Thats what im calling her from now on

[@GachalifeGuy123]

I hope that I see Twilight Sparkle suffer the consequences for not taking any responsibility for the effect on the potion that she has giving her

[@AhmedSa-lo5il]

I don't think so AppleJack is the strongest in the main 6 physical Twilight on the other hand has more versatility she's the Princess of friendship She has the traits of a pegasus Earth Pony and the Ailcon not to mention her Magic Unless she caught her of Gurrd with one fatal blow

[@generallumos6876]

Wouldn't it be ironic if after she hears that AJ escaped "Twilight" is the one that suffered the mental break, and instead of AJ being the one that kills everypony, it's Twilight?

[@theatrecreep]

applejacks voice acting is AMAZING

[@bluetaylor5613]

The voice acting in this story is absolutely insane. Applejack's vice genuinely struck fear into me to my core, genuinely had chills! And the emotion from Twilight, Starlight, it was absolutely insane. Fantastic job to everyone involved!

[@aheckinperson]

The fact that this got another part made me so happy. ALSO THE NARRATION, VOICE ACTING, AND ART GO SO CRAZY I LOVE IT SO MUCH REEEE

[@Bayden-Bluedash]

Starlight dies?!?!? It happened so fast! This is off to a sad but awesome start! Hope you and Mag touch upon how Applejack got out of that cell! Poor Starlight though.

[@Auri0318]

I hope twilight gets what’s coming to her.

[@Auri0318]

aaaaaand applejack did it in the most horrible way possible

[@Elpresidente98]

The amount of quality in this is astounding. The art, the audio work, the switching of narrators to convey Twilight's slipping sanity and the work of the VAs themselves. It's awesome!

[@AnalisaMalinao-f6h]

The way that camera was fixed on the three bottle (two on the ground and one in aj hoof) and the distortion that the camera had on it leads me to believe that those three potion were the sleepless potion that Twilight feared

[@Starlight-sp6db]

I agree with a lot of people saying Twi ingested some of it (for unknown reasons as of now). The distortion and glitches are also like a hint that something isn't right. It'll be really cool to see how the writer(s) mold this story!!

[@LaissezFairyWriter]

Oh my gosh, there’s a sequel! The first left off with so many questions. It’ll be interesting seeing how far AJ will go now that she’s sane again…

[@Brickstin]

God.... this.. made me Cry at the end. I never heard Twilight cry like that. Thanks to everyone who made this.. That painful cry is how I feel deep inside with 15 years of turmoil and pain built up over time ready to break the walls and flow out as wails and tears..

[@aegisludia]

What if over the years, taking care of AJ slowly became an afterthought. How she looked was Twilight’s last memory of what she looked like before. But another thing that would be scary, what if temptation over the years, Twilight couldn’t resist using her friend as a guinea pig. Can’t wait for the next part.

[@Gresekjr122]

Already by the Thumbnail I’m scared. Looking forward to this Lost Narrator & Friend’s. Have a wonderful spooky day.

[@Rice_Wolf]

I always really liked how Magpiepony isn’t afraid to use the same pattern of words on occasion throughout fanfictions. Oftentimes as a writer I get afraid of becoming too repetitive with my words despite the fact I really need to use the same words again sometimes, listening to Magpiepony’s writing helps assure me that even if you use the same words multiple times it’s ok, and all it means is you have a specific writing pattern.

[@geekgirllps1507]

So cool to hear some of Dark Somnium's music being used! It's masterfully written

[@gachamoon_xx5235]

This does remind me of the Dark somniums content! (One of my fav channels Btw's :D)

[@QuirkyPegasy]

Applejack escapes and seeks revenge on Twilight or loses her sanity after finding out what happened to apple bloom wouldn’t be surprised if she goes after starlight ( this was a prediction before it came out )

[@Dusk_Mightyena]

Well actually, we already what she did to Starlight

[@charadreemerr4195]

Another Apple Sleep Experiment Part 2 releases four days after my birthday?! Now THIS is what I call a miracle!

[@spookyartistonyt]

This a squeal of the Apple Sleep Experiment

[@keiththxcup3014]

​@@spookyartistonytYeah. . .that guy just said that(Or girl)

[@AnalisaMalinao-f6h]

Also i loved the glitches/distortion that they did it puts like an ominous tone and feel to the story

[@creeperplayz-iz9qx]

To think All of this could have been avoided if twilight just told the truth

[@creeperplayz-iz9qx]

@@katelynthewhitewerewolf6376 ????

[@katelynthewhitewerewolf6376]

​@@creeperplayz-iz9qx There's no way all of Ponyville would want AJ back because they would give her the cold shoulder and the Sunset Shimmer treatment.

[@Zeruel3]

Lost, you did an incredible job as Applejacks VA, all the warmth and love is gone, there's only concentrated hate and numb, cold rage left

[@archivalsociety]

The timing of this is funny because I just started rereading a lot of these stories as a way to celebrate halloween at home because I couldn't go out this year, in all honesty I think I can confidently say these stories are a lot more digestible when someone is reading them to you, so thank you very much for such a lovely treat!

[@mama_quartz]

IT'S SO GOOD TO HEAR YOU ALL AGAIN!!! This was utterly gutwrenching..Twilight's voice actor is INCREDIBLE for those wails..it almost made me cry! All the voices were absolutely perfect!!! Congratulations to you all, you all made something mind-blowing and I barely got any drawing done because I couldn't keep my eyes off the screen! I'm absolutely weeing from excitement to hear part 2!!! All my love and appreciation to you ✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨🫂🫂🫂🫂🫂🫂🫂🫂🫂🫂🫂🫂

[@URLoveable224]

I AM SPEECHLESS. I'm so bummed I couldn't make it for the premier but holy crap, what a way to start my day. Everything about this is amazing. The on point narration, amazingly genuine voice acting, absolutely stunning art, and the EDITING?? Holy cow. On top of a phenomenally written start to a story! What a beautifully made video, everyone involved should be so freaking proud. Absolutely freaking fantastic. Can't wait for part two!!

[@LilaHubert-jl9zd]

EXITED THIS IS MY FAVORITE FANFIC and I have been dying to see what happens next I'm counting down the seconds till it's released get ready y'all this is gonna be a RODEO TO REMEMBER YEEHAW!

[@NahM8]

I can’t wait for more! Great job! I find it awesome how mlp narrators put more work into their narrations than certain mainstream creepypasta channels with the exception being Dark Somnium.

[@LunaBrony]

This audio drama was the most epic I have ever seen! I already want to see more of this content and good cast that they presented! Happy Nightmare Night!

[@MultiMegaman64]

I knew there was going to be one hell of a bloodbath! Applejack has escaped, ready to continue her bloody massacre! Starlight Glimmer was brutally murdered, and I have a feeling that she's only the first victim of AJ's rampage! Losty, this was truly a masterpiece! You and the others were simply amazing! I can't wait to see more bloodshed in part 2 of Another Apple Sleep Experiment! Happy Halloween Losty!

[@fanmadeproductions2400]

As a brony and creepypasta fan I love you’re channel ❤❤❤

[@thelostnarrator]

Thank you so much! It's much appreciated!

[@opaskilylamoon9919]

The acting in this video is PHENOMINAL! I love it.

[@michaeltsherrillthegamer3677]

There's no words I would describe all of this other than... it's awesome! The Story, the editing, voice acting, etc. Everything was awesome. Well done Lost, you and the others did a great job making a squeal to Apple Sleep Experiment, and I'll be looking forward for part 2.

[@LIZARDONFIRE]

I honestly loved the first one. It was the first video i watched on your channel that got me into grimdarks i cant wait to see what this holds

[@LIZARDONFIRE]

So I finally watched..! AND THIS IS ONLY PART 1 AND SO MUCH HAPPENED!!!! I love it. Also, spencharly is one of my favorite artists!! I'm excited to see where this goes!!

[@kayli2601]

God, this story hasn't even ended yet and the cast has already done a phenomenal job!!! 😱💖

[@Kumba_1]

What a STORY!! Can’t wait for part 2 on November 17th!!

And they say vengeance is a dish best served cold... *No, vengeance is a dish best served red... blood, apple, red~*

[@connorheather5964]

I got an ad for therapy about halfway through, probably not a sign or anything... In all seriousness, what a wonderful job! I'm so glad you're back and making such awesome readings again! It's been lovely seeing all this come together.

[@TangledUpGaming]

One of my favourite KZbinrs publishing on my favourite holiday; plus, a great story's sequel that I've been waiting to hear... THIS DAY IS *AWESOME!*

Here after the finale. Man does this fic sound a whole lot darker now lmao

[@mothwingthemedicinecat]

going back to watch part 1 and 2 for part 3, watched part 1 again for part 2 last time

[@DarkTheAuthor]

You and all of your friends and helpers never fail to impress me lost. Absolute props to everyone involved, this was a masterpiece of a sequel it lived up to everything I could have thought of and more. I will be at the second parts premiere if its the last thing Ill do. Thanks a lot

[@TheManWhoErasedHisNane]

The sequel we never knew we needed!

[@kieranboult5124]

What was Rarity feeling looking at Applejack on the Ice sculpture since it only described Fluttershy, Starlight and Twilight's emotions at looking at it?

[@AdelineTheNerdyMouse]

I sure feel bad for AJ. She is one of my favs and she didn't deserve this.

[@jayr7529]

@@AdelineTheNerdyMouse she’s one my favs because my family is very southern

[@katelynthewhitewerewolf6376]

​@@jayr7529 One problem there's no way all of Ponyville will want AJ back after she killed those ponies you really think they'll forget that? No because they'll be cold to her and her family would disown her because the farm is closed down either way.

[@PuppetBoy.]

Time to rewatch the entire series now that the finale's out. ♡

[@cameronmyers8005]

Ooh, is Twilight gonna go insane now?… Ironic. I normally am a bit skeptical when it comes to sequels, but this… is amazing! The voice acting, the story, and characters! I can’t wait to see the other elements of harmony realize AJ’s back!

[@oliviawalton6890]

I’m so excited to see the story continued, I am looking forward to how the story continues in part two. The art work is beautiful

[@chelbiexhunter]

Just literally recently made fan art of the first story! ❤ Omg I'm super excited for this, I must know more an must know if apple jack gets her revenge on twilight.

[@parthxus]

I have been WAITING for this for so long! You guys did really good with AJs character, I am speechless. I can't wait until pt 2!!

[@tylerross714]

Absolutely incredible!!!! Such an immersive story. The artwork! The voice acting! The narrating! Everything was perfect and I'm so happy this series is continuing to succeed and exceed expectations! Amazing work everyone who worked on this masterpiece!🤘👌👍❤

Its been a long time coming sparkles, your peaceful 7 yesrs are over

[@bonnietelocole6777]

I've always wondered what the aftermath of Creepypasta's are Good to know that this one got a sequel. Binging it tonight, since I made sure to wait a while so I had plenty to catch up on from the thumbnails alone, it looks like it's gonna be a wild ride

[@robertdona8076]

I'm calling it right now it was Twilight that killed Starlight and went insane with guilt of wha she did to Applejack.

[@POPPYPLAYTIMEFAN-wd9sn]

yeah Twilight definitely killed Starlight like what if Applejack wasn't there and she's just descending into madness like Applejack I feel so bad for both Starlight and Applejack I feel no sympathy for the princess of friendship herself who caused this I hope Twilight suffers

[@confettiveda2460]

It's been years since I've looked into pony grimdark. I'm excited to see what this entails!

[@josselinecastillo9585]

I was hoping that Twilight get karma soon of what she did But not like this.... Applejack is really going to kill every single innocent soul ? At first it was because of the drug twilight gave her but now...OMG she is doing without hesitation.
