Let's play more of The Excavation of Hob's Barrow - Spooky adventure time

[@dominateeye]

Anyone who is sensitive to depictions of suicide, please consider skipping from 2:09:51 to 2:13:45. Thanks for streaming this! It's a really compelling story and I can't wait to see how it ends. Have a Scotch egg for me and all others trapped in Scotch egg-less lands, if you feel so inclined!

[@sekritagentsam]

An excellent heads up! Thanks!

[@blahhah5888]

Replying for the algorithm so this stays at the top!

[@zombiedoe3404]

start at 0:29 for the impatient pixel art for normal reasons: just a little guy 37:48 old lady 1:07:22 smug prick cant paint 1:59:06 oof 2:09:55 bastard shoulder 2:19:47 genuinely disturbing 3:51:50

[@MySerpentine]

And break over at 1:57:50

[@JachAnen]

Thanks skelly pal

[@GarmrKiDar]

3:29:50 I love how Horace straight up goes "No miss, his Lordship is a proper idiot"

[@zed2626]

I was waiting and hoping this game was coming back. I've enjoyed it more than expected on stream and straight got invested

[@blahhah5888]

Johnny's reaction to Panswyck talking near the end looked like a cat about to throw up a hairball 😂 Reading "Idol" as "Idiot" has the same energy as when I thought my friend said to me, '...because you're rubbish', and I amiably agreed. It was only after I paused in confusion and asked what she said that I realised her actual words were '... because you're _precious_ '

[@pensword14]

Seeing the thumbnail, I was not expecting to enjoy this game, but I really am invested now and will be watching all the way to the end.

[@jgraham2804]

“What is beer, if not water haunted by the ghost of sugar?”-the best way to justify beer as a thematically appropriate Halloween beverage.

[@kelly7995]

I am loving these livestreams so much !

[@JWest8606]

Just over halfway through this vod. Very cool, awesome atmosphere. Particularly horrifying, along with everything else, is the idea that Thomasina has been visiting her father and telling him, repeatedly about all the barrow digging she's done, the very thing that led to his current condition.

[@TinyScholar]

Yay, more Hob's Barrow! Maybe next week it will be the finale? Waiting anxiously for it

[@bluewingedchaoscat]

This game is such a pleasant surprise. Brings me back to the 90's. Including the non sensical solutions to some of the puzzles. I hope you'll finish the game on stream. Thank you for playing it so far.

[@somniumisdreaming]

I really love that you continued this on stream. Thank you!

[@somniumisdreaming]

Pigs can feel pain and fear and isolation causes them stress. They can learn from each other, show empathy, use mirrors to locate food and enjoy being given brain-teasers. Pigs are gentle creatures with surprising intelligence. Studies have found they're smarter than dogs and even 3-year-old children.

"The produce is not mine to take. Silver crucifixes, sure, but not /produce/."

[@barbararowley6077]

This is so gripping! I did watch bits of the livestream - but it did start at 2am here, so I missed some with nodding off occasionally. Fortunately I’m not superstitious and am fine with supernatural horror, as long as there’s not many jump scares and the scares in this are more slow looms than jumps Hope the gorgeous kittens are doing well and not getting into too much mischief!

[@coyoteartist]

My reading teacher in Junior High told us before reading Of Mice And Men, he never wanted to hear us using the word b*****d. I would shiver when I heard it for years after because he was that serious. 30 years and a number of Horror Geek videos later, I hear it and I hear Linda Day George screaming it at the top of her lungs.

[@renxiemsgaming96]

Lets goo for round three! Thank you so much fir continuing this game

[@strictly1becca]

just finished catching up on both streams and i am properly invested in how this all ends!!! still 100% convinced the creepy cat is papa roach and i am also fully onboard johnny's hypothesis of thomasina's dad still being somewhere in the barrow. great choice johnny, supes excited for more!

[@emmaiblass]

I’m so glad you’re playing more of this. Settling into VOD at a Friday bedtime and it’s a delight

[@Sunandtherain]

The haunted tins were especially spooky, around 3hrs 16min, where somehow Thomasina walked behind the tins but in front of the barrow!

[@jeremyc4215]

This is an amazing game. Thank you for continuing the stream on this, adding your quips and reactions!

[@moalisiddiqui]

I hope you do stream it again. I haven't been this invested in a game for a long time. The twists, turns, and absolute Twin Peaks-esque nature of the plot is too intriguing to forget.

[@nightmarethrenody8232]

The layout of the scene with the goat makes me wonder if it’s a reference to Broken Sword.

[@Alric66]

Johnny, it would be cool if you could get your voice actor friend to join you the next time you stream this game.

[@triangulan]

Frankly, I find Trombone Champion more terrifying than Hobs Barrow...

[@MissMiranda89]

This was great! So excited for you to play the rest of the game

[@Amaritudine]

This game's properly gripping - looking forward to the next episode, and I'll hope to buy it for myself in due course.

[@Nobody.Important000]

I was at work today at our Gallery and a woman came in dresses exactly like Thomasina Bateman in her excavation gear and it took all of my will power not to talk about it

[@ali3ghouse292]

Didn't expect a comparison to whale milk would be the item that reminds me to purchase toothpaste, but you get what you're given.

[@JohnnyChiodini]

You're welcome

[@feebleweevil]

this continues to be an excellent start to Spooky Season... ahahahaha and the ending "palate cleanser" is Magnificent.

[@bofurlong8944]

I didn’t notice that the menu screen in the top right is the Wiccan symbol of waxing crescent, full moon, waning crescent. Wonder if that was intended for spooks.

[@bofurlong8944]

And as always it gets addressed later in the stream, one of the drawbacks of BID squad 😅

[@woodencoyote4372]

Eddie is lucky he only came away with some easily shrugged off hallucinations. Hellebore is very toxic, roots, leaves, stems, seeds - the lot. Touching it with your skin can cause irritation and ingesting it causes a whole range of nasties. It's really remarkable the variety of effects one plant can have, everything from vomiting and diarrhea, to nerve damage, tinnitus, cardiac failure and even mental health problems. Mother Mildred might have mentioned that...

[@thepinkhobbit]

Catching up and while my typo did change what I meant to say quite a bit I would like to say Johnny that you did suggest Mr Shoulder was a cannibal so really it was on theme. (Also yay for a Kiss the Go Goat - Ghost reference!)

[@sywrexile3078]

That was quite a mad episode of The Adventures of Hob's Goaty Ice Cream on Toast! Oh my days 😱 Sorry for having to run off during the stream but I did enjoy it regardless of the horror! Thank you again for the stream & palate cleanser Johnny. Thanks to the Mods and LSPz & I wish you all a lovely Friday + Weekend❤‍🩹 p.s. I learnt of Saxnot and it's quite interesting - I'll leave you to do so if you wish 🙂

[@RoryStarr]

1:08:00 - I absolutely read that repeatedly as "Homan".

[@renxiemsgaming96]

Me too

[@MinnehahaSybyl]

Thinking Mr. Briden had a very familiar voice and sure enough it is Dave Jones, aka Halsin from Baldur's Gate 3.

[@626games]

Was a very obvious reveal lol. Still enjoying watching them play

[@KeKe-bv8qv]

21:24 your sense of direction...

[@joewhitehead7045]

Remember those two drunks in the bar at night? They were talking about stopping 'Him' from 'taking Her away'...hmm...

[@dexterpearson8689]

Hi Johnny. Woke up yesterday feeling sadness (maybe a bit depressed too). Watched both parts of the stream yesterday. It helped me feel better. Have become invested into this game. Looking forward to part 3. Thank you so much. Still subscribed. BTW, when the game zooms in on people's faces, is it just me, or does the artwork want to remind anyone of the style similar to Van Gogh?? I can't put my finger on it, but I feel like I've seen that style before. (Hmmm....)

[@lillithhickling7657]

I was really hoping this episode would finish off the game! Please can we finish this on stream 🙏 Edit: that was the best outro, thank you!

[@katiejohansson5390]

I'm so looking forward to the next stream!

[@Shaddyyy]

Best intro picture ever

[@tzey1]

can't wait for the next stream of this !

[@Tytan626]

I think it’s Ponswyck. He was talking about making sacrifices

[@JWest8606]

For some reason my brain went - "Milk the Goat... Tuppence a bag..." etc.

[@kelly7995]

Listening to the angry men in the pub ... I believe they may be talking about the maid and the milk man x

[@matwetton]

hyperemesis gravidarum is excessive morning sickness. its absolutely horrendous, my wife suffered with it for both our kids.

[@KeKe-bv8qv]

26:59 Have we eaten anything today? 'Cause we've down two drinks now and the game keeps auto-saving.

[@KeKe-bv8qv]

oops it didn't autosave on the second one. I wonder how big you can get the tab.

[@LeSqueed]

Do goats dream of electric boogaloos, that's all...

[@GlitterEnby]

"Ewww...canned corned beef." Thomasina your rich upbringing is showing.

[@lordofuzkulak8308]

“I shall try to…not give up by day three of the excavation…” - what is this…Victorian Time Team? 😜

[@AndersDahnielson]

Unfortunately I could only watch five seconds of this stream.... ...until I had to close it and immediately go and buy the game and play it myself to avoid spoilers.

[@beckstheimpatient4135]

This has been an amazing watch! This story is going SO many places. I am reminded of Darkest Dungeon, as well as basically half of Lovecraft's work, with extra dash of Midsummer. I can't wait to see where it goes next, although I do have my suspicions.

[@celticdr]

Has Johnny referenced getting a "cold shoulder" from Mr Shoulder yet? Because, low hanging fruit there 😂

[@lifegoesonlike]

love this story

[@CodaBlairLucarioEmperor]

Hey Johnny, I feel like the part with Mr Ambrose may also warrant a content warning, especially for people who have trouble with seemingly religious imagery since he was tied to a cross. Not sure what you'd call the content warning though.

[@GlitterEnby]

This game is lovely! Also, I'm a professional copyeditor, and I just want to get my hands on the CC for the dialogue. There's a lot of errors. Hire me please!

[@sekritagentsam]

After work treat!

[@matwetton]

as bad as the joke was Aussie masterchef absolutely rips. much better than UK version.

[@crouchingmarker]

Masterchef Australia: I'm making a deconstructed smore with Davidson's plum marshmallow, dark chocolate ganache and an orange shortbread. Junior Masterchef Australia: I'm making a deconstructed smore with Davidson's plum marshmallow, dark chocolate ganache and an orange shortbread *and I'm ten!*

[@honeymaple1309]

I really enjoyed this video, although I have yet to actually catch any streams of yours actually live sadly lol. Was just wondering though, if you'd be willing to possibly check out a game called the Cat Lady? It's one of my faves, it is a horror game, not sure if you do horror games. Just a suggestion, though. ☺

[@miss-petrolea]

Still watching the VOD, so maybe this is actually gotten back to later, but just noticed at 01:44:00 -> Is that a rope around the overhanging branch from the tree? Morbid, but is this where Samual met his end? EDIT: 02:09:55 Ah... there it is xD

[@beckstheimpatient4135]

And my question is: did his brother really leave that there for TWENTY FIVE YEARS? I'd have cut down the tree, or at least the branch. The rope still being there is insane to me.

[@its_just_ange]

loving this playthrough! you should try beacon pines!

[@scottperkins5038]

1:20:00 oh its a bit Blair Witch isn't it.

[@Lyrak]

I'm only 2 hours in but I feel like making a prediction before I finish: Okay so what are our bets that either the town Lord or James is a vampire or similar?
