The glitch involving the torii gate may be a cultural reference. In Japan, a torii gate acts as a passage way through spiritual barriers, and that you must enter it and exit it by going through it, to go around or loop through it without properly exiting is seen as impolite. Based on the footage, the glitch is caused when you go through a torii gate, but do not exit it properly. I could be wrong, and I am not a programmer who can look through the code to see what triggers the glitch.

Hey nexpo, probably gonna get lost in the sea of comments, but Q was an active worlds player when I was active as well (early 2012-16) and I've spoken with alot of the players to hear that Q was very much so a Nexalist type of creator, as he was a dev. From golden years that actively worked on worlds very long before I started playing, I've spoken to him as well and can confirm he is very cryptic on purpose to new players to entice them with the "creepy" aspects of dead/dying virtual chats.

That definitely wasnt a glitch in the game, it was too specific. rogue/obscure Japanese horror games like to do this alot by bending the 4th wall. it wants to make you think that you are not really playing a game and mixes reality with fiction. This is to leave you guessing if you are playing a actual game made by a fan of horror or playing a game made by a actual murderer/psychopath and the game is just a diary to what he did with imagery to boot as he knows he will never be caught. Its similiar to that mario creepy pasta game. it just leaves you wondering. You will never know.

Okay, after seeing the "dead body" in this video, I did some more poking around, checked out some other pictures of it, and I have a theory to share. I read a lot of comments here from people in various medical fields comparing their personal experiences with corpses to whatever the hell was going on in this game. My immediate thoughts upon seeing the thing come from experience in a different field. A literal field. Farming, raising livestock, specifically dealing with deceased animals. You can't really dig a grave for a cow or horse (or pig, I feel most people grossly underestimate how big pigs are) like it's your family dog or cat. Plus, this presents a risk of disease to other animals on the property. So what do you do? You ship them off to a place like this to be incinerated. I believe this explains the lack of hygiene and cleanliness others have pointed out when considering a medical or meat processing scenario. Also, the state of the, uh, "remains", could be because of a predator, scavengers, and/or simply being left in a field undiscovered or awaiting transportation. Footage of this wouldn't be problematic to have, unlike filming med school cadavers who might be identified, or a meat processing plant that could be sued for not being appropriately food safe. My initial thought was that we are seeing part of a young cow, noticed what may have been a cloven hoof and it seemed to me definitively more cow than deer. Maybe my eyes are just picking out familiar shapes in shadows. At any rate, I am confident that these are the hinge-like leg joints of a quadruped and not the more articulate ball-and-socket joints of a human. I swear I have never disposed of a human body.

[@alextv349]

Mhm sure..

[@0neDoomedSpaceMarine]

Interesting enough input I suppose. Valve put a genuine dead body in Half-Life 2 though, like the face for one of the corpse models is outright clipped from a scan from a medical textbook, showing a man with a burned off face. Someone just stumbled upon that textbook and flipped through it, and then realized "Hey, isn't that corpse_mdl01?" and sure enough it was a match, only whoever made it a texture copied the empty eyesocket onto the other, where there was this shrunken, deflated, and deformed remnant of his eyeball, presumably looking both too grim to keep and likely resolving away at the scaled down resolution. Valve hasn't responded to or acknowledged this at all, and haven't gotten in trouble for it, presumably this wasn't even a known fact in the company. The asset dates back to early development and a lot of people went in an out of Valve's doors during Half-Life 2's creation, and it's speculated that one of the passing through artists provided that texture, possibly as a placeholder, but that nobody knew that it was one.

[@radio_cooking_ghost]

yeah i've seen a good enough amount of dead livestock (i'm a culinary student) to know that whatever that was wasn't a human. the structure of it looks more like the underside of a leg of some large animal like a cow based on the musculature we can see in the video.

RPG Maker dev here! That second one is incredibly cool, and would be fairly simple to set up, even with minimal knowledge on how to use the program. Definitely an intentional and effective scare! Going under the torii gates probably has a set chance of activating the "glitch". When the conditions are correct, it sets a timer to display the first image with the green text box, followed by a simple Message string showing up for the second (RPG Maker uses specific fonts/custom ones you can set, which explains why not having the keyboard region set to Japan would throw up garbage instead). After that, it's as simple as having the screen flash 4 times and making the image pop up. Making it so you have to close the game to stop it is more than likely because it's set as an "Auto" event, which doesn't end unless you setup a way to end it or use "End Event Processing". An easy way to verify this would be to go into the files for the game and see if you can find an image with the green text box in there! Awesome stuff as always, Nexpo!

Someone uploaded all the audio files for The Museum of Anything Goes and there are bits where co-creator Michael Markowski talks about himself. He is/was a school teacher in Chicago apparently and goes on a bitter and cynical talk about how the school system in the city is failing (and as many probably are aware, things haven't gotten better, worse in fact for Chicago's public education sector, and arguably the city itself, crime skyrocketing, poverty, etc.). There's a bit where he talks to various kids in elementary school and in a blunt and terse tone asks them questions about what they want to be when they grow up, how they hope to achieve that and so on. He never outright tells them "your dreams are hopeless, might as well give up and forget about it kid" but he does have a tone to his voice where barely hides his feelings of resignation toward anything good coming from the generation of kids he's teaching who want to be astronauts or whatever. I don't know, I don't remember what he said exactly, you can probably find the sound files on here and listen to the interviews yourself. I imagine this game is some sort of outlet. I don't know about the co- developer but at the very least it would be fitting if the game was called "The Museum of Mike Markowski's Mind." It has the surface of an edutainment title befitting his role as a school teacher and is tonally all over the place. A mix of bad jokes and silly sight gags and sound effects with just weird meaningless, uh, stuff, some actual information about the Chicago area, and sad, more serious fare like a section of real "dead letters" from one of the World Wars (dead letters are letters, usually from a long time ago past when it would be relevant to the recipient or when they would even be alive, that were sent out but never made it to their destination). There is some underlying nihilism to it all, like one of the creepy, looping tracks (the one Vinny said sounded like a Talking Heads parody) about how life is meaningless and all there is in the end is death. I don't remember the lyrics other than "You're here, then you're gone." A number of dire topics seem to be used as punchlines or setups for dark jokes. The thing with the video of the carcass after a funeral is just the most extreme example in the whole thing. A silly walking skeleton in front of that old photograph of a body in a casket is another. Of course there's no information whatsoever to find about the game's creators. I don't know if they're even still alive. But in any case I see it as a product of an embittered public school teacher who has seen where the system had led his students, left him hopeless, and just piled on all those thoughts into an interactive edutainment CD-ROM title from the bygone days. Seeing all the stuff in the game does make one wonder who the audience the game was intended for and it's probably nobody at all except for the people of the future right now who finds intrigue in these bizarre, old relics of the uncanny valley.

It's a really interesting project honestly, I have a physical copy I won from eBay and was working on a retrospective/analysis thing but I wasn't able to find the guy either. From what I could find out, Markowski is an artist, he was a teacher at one point and there's a whole section in the game with those student interviews. He apparently also had/planned a second CD-ROM game/art thing that either didn't release or is so rare that nobody has uploaded it online. I almost thought I found the guy on Facebook and reached out but never got a reply. Huge shame because I really wanted to interview the dude and ask about everything.

You are very possibly right about the pig thing, but just throwing this out there, I used to work in the medical field. In training, we had to dissect cadavers a handful of times. The cadavers although preserved, we’re still heavily decayed and torn apart since they would be dissected multiple times. To me, at first glance, it looked like one of those dissected cadavers with decayed skin and flesh all cut up and hanging off, skeleton exposed…. But really, it doesn’t show enough to really tell for sure. If you think it’s a pig carcass, I’m inclined to believe you.

[@bluegum6438]

I think it's an abstract kind of musing on a few ideas through juxtaposition: We have reverence for our dead and yet our existence is based on using the corpses of other species. In the right context, you perceive a body being disposed of and feel horror, whether pig or human the superficial appearance is similar enough to be confronting. Is it a crematorium or a garbage incinerator? Is there a difference? Is it horrifying only because you believed you were looking at the remains of a person, or is it innately a horrifying sight that we are inured to by the necessity of livestock? It doesn't seem to be making any moral judgement, just like "y'know, it's kinda funny how-" I don't even know if this was consciously intended or if I'm just reading too much into it, but I do think it's a really thought-provoking piece of media regardless.

[@loljustice31]

Not to be nitpicky, but cadavers used for anatomical dissection do not rot or decay as they are preserved in fixative. However you are right in that they do desiccate, and by the end of the term they are understandably very cut up and in poor shape, especially as not all students are good at cutting. (Writing this from my experience having been through medical school; I am a neurologist - but all first year medical students must take gross anatomy with cadaveric dissection). It is worthwhile noting that at least in the US (and I imagine elsewhere too) in medical education it's not permitted to take pictures or videos of the cadavers or cadaveric parts. That said, as I noted above this does look to me like it could be the dissected and preserved leg of a human cadaver.

IDEA: The "corpse photo" that pops up after activating that "glitch" might not be a photo at all, but a painting. I'm not the world's foremost expert on fine art, but highly detailed paintings of death and corpses were actually extremely common in the late Renaissance and well into the 19th century (and in many ways, these paintings are more unsettling than photographs.) Rembrandt, Goya, Holbein, Caravaggio (OMG especially Caravaggio!) are well known for their eye-popping paintings of dead humans. Did you know that one of Vincent Van Gogh's most famous paintings is a still life of A REAL HUMAN SKELETON? Maybe the creator of the game used an image from a painting instead of a photo because a photo would be too much gore and not enough emotion. If so, then as far as the style of the possible painting is concerned, in my opinion the image reminds me of something that Paul Cezanne or Hans Holbein might have done. EDIT: Something else just occurred to me, and I can't believe I didn't think of it sooner, but if using an actual photo of an actual human corpse could have created a legal problem for the developer than using a painting would make more sense. Most fine artworks aren't subject to copyright laws anyway, I don't think.

one obscure video game that really fascinates me is "puppet motel" by artist laurie anderson. not many people know about it, but there are full attempts at playthroughs here on youtube. the game has no real motive, and was designed to be a sort of exploratory journey through the subconscious mind via the computer. very odd and intriguing.

As an RPG Maker enthusiast - that is definitely not a glitch in The Haunting 2. My guess is that the creator created an event that runs on an “auto” trigger without creating an out while spawning a picture, creating an intentional softlock.

Actually, that's Wolf RPG Editor. Yes, that kind of mechanic can happen too, it's a more flexible software. But instead of a picture, that one is a legit display of error screens (green rectangle and white text). However, people in other comment said that it's probably from Japan's custom of "direspectful to walk around Torii", so perhaps the creator made a script where doing that will trigger the error box, which is easy to modify/recreate by in-software script.

Great video, I just want to mention a couple of things about Haunting 2. I have spent an embarrassing number of years in the RPG Maker community working on games and I believe a few of the mysterious around that title are, quite frankly, easily solved by the limitations of RPG Maker. I think you're spot on when you say the gate glitch is an Easter egg. RPG Maker's capabilities do not easily allow for an anti-cheat function. You can also successfully replicate it 100% of the time. It is very, very easy to crash out an RPG Maker game both intentionally and unintentionally, and it looks to me like the creator took some real RPG Maker error text and combined it with their own creepy text before giving the game a hard lock. In fact, I bet if you open up Haunting 2 in whatever version of RPG Maker it was made in and look at the map where the "glitch" occurs, you're either going to find an invisible tile, or a series of tiles (given a set amount of steps activate the glitch), or a local map routine that scans the game and says "if X action occurs, do Y" that then results in the "error" text and the image. The image is also going to be hard, even impossible to search, because depending on the version of RPG Maker, it can only handle so many colors and bit depth. With older versions of the program, images could only be 256 colors, and could only have an 8-bit depth. Finagling with paint in the old days meant many frustrating save outs to bmp or png to preserve as much color information as you could. Not knowing what you're doing, or using a high information image, often results in importing a much lower quality version into the RPG Maker program, and lower quality means image searches then can't match it to the source. Given these limitations, I believe this means Haunting 2 was most likely created in either RPG Maker 2000 or RPG Maker 2003. Dunno if any of this helps. Thanks again for the video.

The creepy picture at the glitch in Haunting 2 looks like a distorted and shifted image from some medieval painting. The eyes looking of to a distant point, the possible headdress and colors of the clothing kind of look like a baroque painting (I'm not an art historian so don't quote me on that). Since the picture looks enlarged, as if it was in the background, shifted 90 degrees and darkened would make it very difficult to find in a Google or even visual search.

One of my friends is a butcher, so I texted him to see what he had to say about the creepy museum game image (copied his full analysis here): "I don't know how things were done in the 90s, but personally I've never seen a meat handling area of any kind that had an incinerator that looks quite like that, although brands and designs can vary. The coat the guy is wearing is also slightly different, in the 90s maybe they looked like that, but it's not quite like the coats we use for meat handling sanitation purposes and he's also not wearing any gloves or hair net, or anything else, so that's also very weird to me. The trash can also sticks out; it doesn't appear to have the labelling I'd expect for biodegradable food waste like decayed meat, doesn't have the double-bagging or plastic safety wrapping that we put on any disposal containers, and I have no idea what kind of butcher shop they'd be running with meat that desiccated or decayed laying around in any kind of storage. It would be a hazard to health to let any meat get to that level of decay, and desiccated meat isn't just thrown around and is usually dried and prepared after it's been cut off. Although I guess someone could be drying a whole animal, but that requires essentially a special oven in order to dry it all out thoroughly, and even then the innards would need to be removed and it's hard to tell from the video you linked me as it's been censored, so I can't see any detail on the actual meat. Just from what I know, I'm trying to think of what could have such a long thin limb of some kind [I think he's referring to about 31:02, the limb sticking up], and I'm not sure... It obviously still has muscle on it, and it looks more like human leg muscle? Than anything else to me. I thought at first that it might be a deer with the limb extended, but the way the muscle around the knee joint looking part looks above what I assume is the knee isn't quite right for that. No idea. It could possibly be an animal, but it's very hard to tell from that angle, on top of the censor blurring. Sorry to say I'm not actually sure if that's meat prep, or if that's some kind of animal or possibly human cadaver prep for a medical school or something. It really seems more like a basement of a medical school than a butcher's back room, though, although tiled walls are fairly common for both of these types of workspaces, so I can't say. The fact that the grout is so wide between the tiling is weird, as we try to avoid that in meat handling areas because grout is porous and can be a bacterial hazard. So for what it's worth, it seems to me as though it's up in the air. Sorry I can't be more helpful, but maybe this will help the process of elimination."

[@Wired_User]

Whether a butcher or a med student (I’m inclined to think med student from the incinerator) I’m just disturbed by the unsanitary conditions. I mean, the guy isn’t wearing a surgical mask or hair net, his shirt sleeves fall down when he chucks the meat in the incinerator, the meat is too big for the tray it’s on, etc etc. And yeah, I’m annoyed by the grout too, like your butcher friend! The whole setup is shabbily thrown together and someone is gonna get a terrible disease from it.

[@loljustice31]

Having dissected human cadavers in medical school, I do think it looks like it could be the dissected, preserved leg of a human cadaver. In response to the person above, this may be a nitpicky detail, but fyi, it's not medical students who are responsible for disposing of the cadavers and cadaveric parts at the end of the term; it's possible that maybe the anatomist does this. Medical students do not go near an incinerator or anything like that. They just go in the anatomy lab and dissect the cadavers, they are not responsible for disposing of them at the end of the term. Also, as students we did not wear surgical masks or hairnets in the anatomy lab (needless to say this was long before covid for me). The instructors and anatomist didn't either, but we did wear gloves. Surgical masks and hairnets/haircaps are worn during surgery so as to maintain a sterile field in the surgical area, and such a thing does not apply when handling cadavers in anatomical dissection (the cadavers are preserved with fixative, they do not decay or rot). We just wore scrubs. That said, at least in the US (and I imagine elsewhere too) it is not permitted to take videos or pictures of cadavers or parts thereof in the anatomy lab, so the only way I can imagine this being a video of, say, an anatomist disposing of cadavers from dissection is if special permission was given to do this, such as for an educational or research purpose. In reference to this line: "The trash can also sticks out; it doesn't appear to have the labelling I'd expect for biodegradable food waste like decayed meat, doesn't have the double-bagging or plastic safety wrapping that we put on any disposal containers" - the same would be true for biohazard waste containers used for disposal of cadaveric parts.
