Cursed Curios 1885 | Victorian Auction ASMR Roleplay

It’s officially the start of the spooky season, and so what better way to say hello to Halloween than with the now five-year-old tradition of Cursed Curios?
Five years… eesh. Anyway, this year’s Cursed Curios is a little different, as it’s direct to the viewer as opposed to a television show or whatever. It’s a Victorian Auction ASMR roleplay where a taciturn and sarcastic salesman will try to peddle a myriad of mementos that all have questionable provenance - and many cursed caveats. It only gets spookier and more grotesque from here on, so enjoy!

🎙 What is ASMR? 🎧
ASMR (autonomous sensory meridian response) is synaesthesia of the soul. It’s a relaxing feeling, it’s a tingling down the spine, or it’s simply a sleep aid. Whether it’s being ‘held’ by someone you have confidence in, or ‘looked after’ by someone with authority, or just feeling ‘safe’ with someone you trust, it uses audio-visual triggers to enable you to let go of your worries and stresses - even just for a bit.
📽 What is FPC? 🎞
FPC (first person cinema) takes all the relaxing elements of ASMR but has much more of a focus on immersion and the suspension of disbelief. It’s kinda like being the main character in your own short movie, with popular figures you know and love, or entirely created worlds - just for you. There won’t be any visible mics or traditional triggers in these videos, and they will seem more unintentional than the usual ASMR videos - but they are unique and relaxing experiences designed to transport you to different places, worlds, and times.
Disclaimer: This video is intended for relaxation. Any views, opinions, or advice expressed is purely for the purpose of entertainment, and to induce tingles through ASMR. These videos are not a substitute for traditional medicine, therapy, or any other professional medium, and should not be treated as such! Take all the advice with a pinch of salt, and certainly don’t take it to heart. That being said, please enjoy them, benefit from them, and hopefully get those warm, tingly feelings. Oh, and it’s not for kids.

“Chewsday” never gets old 💀 Jim once again giving quality content💕 This October is already kickass so far✨

[@NukePower217]

The Spooky season is here!

[@RinasReveries]

What a start to kick off Spooky season Jim. The Cursed Curios videos have always been one of my favorites during Halloween so thank you for this.

[@JLVSpeedy]

I'm happy to kick off my favorite time of year with another installment of Cursed Curios! It's really cool how each year you've put a unique spin on this concept, and the Victorian theme works perfectly here. There was something very Johnny Depp character-esq about this auctioneer (or I thought so at least) which was pretty entertaining.

[@_danoffx_4757]

This whole channel is criminally underated

[@ladyliberty417]

Five years!! Your dedication is admirable and I remember discovering you and admiring your gifts- thanks Jim for this spooky shopping show🎃

[@bluegreenglue6565]

Oh, this poor gentleman. I was just hoping beyond hope that we'd close the bid in time. : (Watching for the second and subsequent time(s), it's heartbreaking. Still, love the auction, as always, and love the callbacks to recent videos (I would gladly accept the curse that comes with the Slavik Horn). Thanks so much! [and, as always, will show my appreciation to Gthic for their support]

[@SherioCheers]

Far too sober for a Tuesday is now going down in my lexicon. Thanks Jim for the fantastic start to Spooktober!

[@majuskulle]

with your tone and the setting, i keep expecting Gherman's "it always comes down to the hunter's helper to clean up these sort of messes" which is quite delightful

[@HE13272326]

I wonder how many Schilling a Burial Blade costs

[@JasperCatProductions]

This makes my cold dead heart full with the splendor of October. I thank you!

[@PotluckB]

I have been looking forward to this exact video since I realized it was almost October a couple weeks ago. This remains my favorite of all your series.

[@stormyweather745]

I love this cursed curios series ever since the first one., so thank you for making another one this year. ☺That poor thing just can't get away from that same Tuesday.🥺

[@poetryjones7946]

Jim’s Cursed Curios are here, yay! It’s truly the Happiest Time Of The Year! ❤👹👻💀👺🤡

[@Decayingcxrpse]

I look forward to this series every year! Now the spooky season can finally begin ^_^

[@poetryjones7946]

Me too! Since Jim’s hilarious “Hiding From A Serial Killer” video, JChi has been a Halloween Staple in this house!

[@Decayingcxrpse]

@@poetryjones7946 :0 I love that one as well! Definitely one of my faves

[@poetryjones7946]

@@Decayingcxrpse Another one I love is from a few years back, his Incompetent Witch Inquisitor (can’t remember the title) 🤣

[@Decayingcxrpse]

@@poetryjones7946 Another great one!! You have incredible taste lol. Hm, the only inquisitor I can think of is X'ym Bygel. The one that’s apart of the Malenkee saga. (I’ve watched all of Jim’s vids yet still somehow forget characters XD)

[@tylers.4481]

The Cursed Curios series is legitimately my favorite series of videos on KZbin, and I always await the next installment with ineffable alacrity and exultation. Thank you for this wonderful video, my friend, and I hope you’re doing well! 🥂

[@harriets_clovercoffee]

Victorian/historical asmrs are my fav and you do them so well, can't wait to listen to this in full !🧡

[@kseniaixbalam2826]

Oh I was waiting for this video ❤❤❤

[@savvy2114]

Im so happy to see this series alive!

[@xyagold6990]

Jim, I look forward to the return of this poor unfortunate soul every year!

[@karinadixon9922]

I love spooky season and this vid was one of the good ways to start it. I felt so sorry for the auctioneer though bless him. Another top quality (and considering the subject matter) oddly relaxing one. Well done team Jim 👏

[@dillonschneider9375]

YES! My favorite series

[@ShayTheBean]

I like this outfit in particular! The dark hair and facial hair really suit you! It reminds me of Johnny Depp somewhat

[@moonlightlily-p7u]

It would be amazing another Bloodborne roleplay. Something like a member of the healing church talking about the benefits of the blood or something haha. I love all the costumes you have, I'm jealous 😅

[@jennyflo1]

That blades’ curse is chilling

[@caseyspark2019]

I was just rewatching this series! Read my mind!

[@Raisingwildminds]

If I may say - as someone who loves your work! - You already do so many varied characters and accents, that when it comes to your long-awaited Cursed Curios instalments, I would actually much prefer you to stick with the original character and filming style from the first two!! Not sure if anyone else agrees ❤

[@thaghost1569709]

I wait for cursed curios every year,great job as always!

[@kathyindependent2728]

I absolutely love your Cursed Curios RPs but with this one it was a bit too dark to be able to see those cursed objects…and it was hard to see what I was bidding for. Your ability to create such fantastic videos is surpassed by none! Thank you!

[@KiaraM]

There's no better way to start the spooky season Jim, than with your classic but always beautiful Cursed Curios video 👍👍👍 wow I can't believe it's been five years already. Great job!!! ❤

[@v0id525]

The cursed curious videos are always a joy to watch, glad to see the tradition is still going.

[@jkhartley]

Your Gothic clothing and jewellery looks fabulous! It’s how I’d like to dress if I had the budget for it; some of the Gothic dresses are really incredible looking, and of course your video is stellar as always. A little sad to see Manny being auctioned off. He seemed like an extension of Will Jester, with his little melancholic jingling, trying to keep in the Queen’s good books, in spite of what looked like a very bad depression. It’s that Sad Clown archetype, bittersweet and poignant, your characters are always complex and nuanced. Much Agape to you, handsome gentleman. ❤❤❤😊

[@bobbydragon9322]

Yess!!!!! My favorite October tradition!! 🎉

[@ceeb3]

Best ASMR channel on KZbin! Vastly underrated. Video idea for the future. The Knight Bus.

[@Blairwolfvt]

Such a relaxing grumbly voice, well done as always👍

[@khawlah971]

The character looks so similar to johnny depp, the aesthetic how they look, even the vibe, and i love it✨

[@blauerengel9648]

thank you jim❤

[@dr.albertwesker2282]

I just wanted to tell you hello and that I’m very impressed with you’re role playing/cosplaying you’re very talented and skilled at it and I can tell you this not many people can do that like you can you always seem like you can pull it off and I love it that’s why I’m always looking forward to seeing your videos and I don’t want to make it seem like I’m being a creep or make you feel uncomfortable because believe me that’s not my intention I just wanna tell you how handsome you are and that you’re voice is so claim and relaxing and that you’ve got great doctor manners I’m also curious to know if you don’t mind me asking you this question and answering it when do you plan on making more resident evil Albert Wesker videos and medical videos I really love those role play videos and happy October 😅

[@dr.albertwesker2282]

Yay finally another new video from the same handsome talented man who has the most incredible talent/ claiming and relaxing voice damn you’re so talented and creative the people that are all here that comment and watch your videos we all love you and love how talented you really

[@sidneyhenry3949]

IT'S BACK! CURSED CURIOS!!

[@leticia1346]

If I might ask, could you do a Grand Admiral Thrawn rp from Star Wars? You’d be perfect for the character

[@chookinathunderstorm3446]

I woke up too early to watch this and so too easily drifted in and out of consciousness with Si's soothing gruff tones and felt weirdly like I was drugged and being auctioned off myself. Rewatched later and got the whole enthralling picture. Poor Si and his poor, poorly boy. So much more tragic because Si almost sold off the curse towards the end of he first auction session of his first day of his possession of it. I think....? I reckon the mermaid would've been Si's best buy because (and this is my fantasy criminal mind at work) Si could steal from the greedy rich and hide the evidence by climbing down a ladder into a watery well and stashing it all until he had enough to hire a good doctor to cure his son. Ba Da Bing! Re the jester who owned the doll, I now know why he seemed to have a death wish, offending royalty and the church with his very funny truth revealing jokes by way of that nervouly hesitant delivery. Probably wondering about the method of his execution. He was obviously tired of living while being cursed with the inability to laugh. He'd made it to the royal court as the best most comical jester in the land and found it was not worth the price the curse made him pay. Clever circle back tie-in Jim. 💫👏

[@vortmax1981]

Oh I was hoping for this!

[@MissKitty-qq1dy]

You are so amazingly talented!! ❤❤❤

[@the_Alpha_and_Omega]

Finally some good fricking ASMR

[@민트초코-m8b]

Hello, I can't speak English very well, but I write a comment. Exhausted from school and college exams, I scarred my body and I found your videos while watching KZbin. Your ASMR has helped me a lot, as well as depression and insomnia. I actually decided to kill myself before I saw your video, but I didn't kill myself because I'm a coward. In our small town this year, three high school students lost their lives theirself due to sexual problems and stress, and were suffering from depression, insomnia, and social anxiety due to obituary news, entrance exam pressure, and expectations for their parents. To me, your ASMR has been like a light to me; your voice lowers my anxiety and keeps me from thinking bad thoughts. In addition, your voice prevents nightmares and allows you to sleep for more than four hours (in fact, before I don't see your video, l haven't slept more than three hours a day, sleeping in the middle and waking up repeatedly), and your video has become my only refuge. Thank you so much. By a normal highschool girl in Korea🇰🇷. (I did not speak English well, I used a translator, I cried, I wrote strangely, but I wrote really hard. Thank you for reading the long article.)

[@pandamonium4212]

The perfect start to spooky season! So glad the tradition still lives. I do wonder is this is where ‘Cursed Curios’ began -be historically speaking? Or if our poor dear salesman inherited the auction some place, some time?? 🎃❤️🎃 (P.s - I have it in good authority that, yes, the jester was indeed funny) 🤡

[@cowgirltheworld]

IM SO HYPEEE

[@brandonamthor]

The best series

[@MeAndNataHere]

Auctioneer consistently ignores me, though I bid for everything. Me: I have the dull feeling of being cursed already. 🖤🤎🖤

[@chriskotson44]

I don't know if you've ever played it, but if you can do this, I bet you could do an Order 1886 video! Just a suggestion, I know you probably have dozens of cooler projects!

That ending

The real cursed curio is the pre-decimal currency.

[@jodieredgap5475]

Okay so what if when we bought it we also had the cursed passed on to us. So now we are both stuck in the time loop I mean yes it would be terrible but hey I'd do it if meant he had some company I can imagine it's so lonely 😔

[@roisinthemachine]
