Mystery screensaver, Windows 98

[@Mr.Tin_88]

Back when even a simple screen-saver could entertain us...

[@BOBINDUN]

I mean, we're here for a reason. It still can!

[@burazcova946]

Imagination did the rest, now there is no need to use it since everything is digitalized sadly

[@MrStickman1997]

Or scare the shit out of us sometimes, the ocean screensaver creeped me out a bit, what with the shark fin. I'm sure this one would have scared me if I saw it back then...

[@anthonywhite2502]

I know right

[@Jugdjay]

I remember I'd just sit there watching it back when I was a kid. Good old times...

[@pearlglass]

Jugdjay I also did that. I was also thinking about the ghost 👻 who was living there and making a bunch of stories with a simple screensaver. I miss Windows 98 lol

[@marcocappelli2236]

Me as well! So long ago...

[@mariajosecardenasparra949]

¡Me Too¡,¡OMG¡,

[@KMnnA]

I used to do the same with my cousin

[@keonlunius3000]

Just the comment that i was looking for.

[@lenpeterson8684]

I sit quietly in my dark basement every Halloween and watch this screensaver for a few minutes and think about Halloweens gone by. Very cool screensaver.

[@youarelife3437]

Woah! That's like a Halloween meditation😄

[@BOBINDUN]

Respect, remind me to do that?

[@MoonLoonie69]

This used to terrify me as a kid. It still gives me the willies.

[@joshjimeno6130]

Back when I was a kid I expected that the longer I leave it on, the spookier it gets, like eventually I'll see the man on the window feasting on a human head and that a monster will walk around the mansion

[@DinnerForkTongue]

Josh Jimeno That would make for a nifty modernisation.

[@pearlglass]

Josh Jimeno Yeah I remember the guy that appeared on the left window I think 🤔

[@HentaiTrapLord]

Someone needs to make a whole-ass creepypasta about it. That would be interesting… … …Or silly goofy, depending on how good or bad it is.

[@jacobyf8133]

I'm glad I'm not tje only one who remembers the man. Now he lit a candle to be visible if I remember correctly, right?

[@JJ-qk2be]

The nostalgia is killing me. My folks had this in 98 and i was 8 years old. I loved these screensavers. I'd sit there and watch them when i was bored.

[@baod3021]

When I was very little I used to watch this a lot. :D and this seemed the most interesting thing on the world. Also used to imagine little stories of what was happening inside ...♡♡♡

[@BOBINDUN]

That's a very integral part. Imagination. Good reminder there

[@JJTownley_Classical-Composer]

Still my favorite screensaver after all these years. God, I hope KZbin never throws this out, at least until after I die and come live here.

[@CandymarieUzumaki]

J J Townley Sometime-composer of Piano Concertos Your coment makes me happy but the same time I feel a little sad...I hope that in the future this video still here in youtube :)

[@namesurname4666]

why don't try it yourself on windows 98?

[@PeneloPhoto]

Agh, I remember this screensaver! It always freaked me out. Haha.

[@boomhauer0079]

+Penelope Lolohea Lol same ):

[@kmilo1173]

Lol same 😂

[@hollyz110]

Sooo loved this. I was about 15, didn't have a computer at home, and the internet was so new. My Aunt and Uncle had a computer and I could just sit and watch this screensaver forever. Always loved spooky things and this is where that started!!!

[@Ins0mniacGamer]

most 90s thing ever

[@anushreeemusic]

My childhood. Would get so scared, still watch. Such thrill.

[@rowenwolff]

I had an overwhelming compulsion to watch this again. Lots of nostalgia!! I loved this so much growing up. Not going to say its the sole reason, but it certainly played a part in my love of Halloween and horror

[@darkl3ad3r]

This screensaver made me so happy when I was a kid. It shaped my tastes in atmosphere and setting. I love this so much.

[@adamthestarlord9595]

We had a damn good childhood.. what I wouldn’t do to experience it again.

[@Zane618]

Same being a carefree kid seems a great thought.

[@nellyxoxo1]

Me and my sister use to sit and watch this all the time when we were little!

[@youarelife3437]

same lol

[@jw870206]

My bedroom was in the basement and so was the computer. Sometimes I'd forget to turn off the speakers, and when this came on in the dark basement at night with all the creepy sounds, it freaked me out. lol

[@caroljeeben7064]

I remember there used to be a virtual greeting card website that was very popular for a small amount of time that had some interactive cards such as this. I know this one is a screen saver, but I loved... LOVED going and seeing the themed cards and opening windows and doors and coffins during Halloween and seeing what I could discover.

[@eenayeah]

I was 3 years old when we had this screensaver back in 2000. Man this was scary

[@FaheemProductions]

Same here. I was also 3 years old when we had this screensaver back in 1999.

[@tsurayyaislamiati1744]

i really miss this screensaver, it is like we watching tv when my childhood

[@bubbletea_]

when i was very little, this would scare me. imagine my shock when this music would suddenly blare out of the speakers just because i left the computer sitting for a minute.

[@FaheemProductions]

This is Pure Nostalgia!!! I used to get scared of the sound effects when I was a kid.

[@mattsavegnago192]

I used to watch this all the time when I was little, damn.. like 10 years ago or something. Good times

[@lucindasanchez3803]

the haunted house one was always one my favorite and the 3D maze! I could stare at both for HOURS!

[@invaderhorizongreen8168]

Reminds me of the after dark screen savers.

[@GoregeousLey]

This was my favorite Screensaver just because of the black cat that will pass by. 🐈‍⬛

[@jjiille]

저 화면보호기가 특출나게 무서운게 아니라 저 시절의 기술력으로 만들어진 모든 작품은 의도치 않게 공포감을 주었어요 기술력의 한계로 만들어진 어설픈 그래픽과 정직하게 울려퍼지는 사운드는 저 시절의 상징이야😂 난 가끔식 술에 취해 집에 귀가하면 어릴 때 보았던 저 시절의 조악한 작품들을 몇시간씩 찾아보며 추억에 잠긴다

[@tnvmadhav2442]

I was 7 and absolutely terrified. Great times.

[@Engineer9736]

Woah i haven’t seen this or even thought for a second about this screensaver for like 20 years, and i still recognize it. Nostalgia 😂

[@dragonport6132]

memories memories memories !! good old memories. i wish we can just turn all the back time to the good dope days..

[@camzy96]

Man bring me back these days

[@bwads216]

This always scared me as a kid when my mom left the computer on like this i would hide in my room

Man, seeing these custom screensavers from Win 98 gives a smile on my face. I wish to have them again because I can appreciate them more than before because I'm quite older. And I'd like to cycle on a different theme every month or time to time!

[@digitaldiablo1653]

There are ways to get these screensavers on newer Windows.

[@asfml365d]

As a child, I sat down on my chair and patiently waited for the moon to finish crossing the screen, just curious what would happen haha.

[@AxZelAnimations30]

Dang the Nostalgia's really kicking in. If I'm bored with the games I'm just staring at these.

[@apd.93]

I was like 7 or 8 at the time and this was my favorite screensaver, I still have an obsession with halloween themed things, haunted houses, spooky skeletons, bats, etc. (In my country halloween isn't really popular) I had refined tastes since childhood lol

[@Kabman89]

I remember how this screen saver used to be on my family's computer. What great memories I have of those times. Thanks for uploading this, Matthew!

[@goo83]

0:00 to 0:06 is 6 seconds of pure nostalgia. I used to play Escape From Horrorland on my pc at the same time I had this screen saver set as default. they complimented eachother so well!

[@ashleygrindle8521]

I remember this. It’s a good screensaver for this Halloween.

[@IgnatiusBlaze4]

So many memories, I just wish we could get this as a screen saver on modern computers, I miss this so much.

[@digitaldiablo1653]

You can.

[@nixvet]

i remember being like 4 years old, watching these screensavers play all day. sometimes i got a creepy feeling from it, maybe from how basic everything looked back then but i had nightmares easily from these kind of things

[@odiagam5755]

I remember at night my brother forgot to shutdown the computer while this theme is the screensaver and its spook me to the core 😅

[@thedark2368]

Awesome screensaver was at that time. Sometimes she even scared me!

[@kurtgannon94]

I used too just sit and watch this for ages when I was younger

[@drumhead96]

I remember, My dad set this as the screen saver during Halloween when I was a toddler. I would get so scared

[@TheLandOfFantasy]

Good old times.... will always miss it :(

[@lululara5380]

This reminds me Adams Family for some reason

[@davidcabreonmunoz6258]

*I was there, Gandalf. I was there 3000 years ago...*

[@HeadsetGuy]

Microsoft logic: No better way to save your screen than to have a giant static (well, mostly static) image that takes up the majority of screen space. In all seriousness, this was a fun screensaver to watch. We didn't have this as our default; we mostly went with 3D Maze and 3D Flower Box.

[@TheLambdaTeam]

*OMFG I remember this, thawwuz muh favorite screensaver when I had muh first PC wit' Windows 98 on it! I could watch this for hourz, it wuz ver' spooky an' awsum!!! I also remember it had wolf howlingz here an' there*

My sister and i played as who could see what is inside the house everytime the dor opened or the lights turned on in the left room. Aaahh the good moments.

[@Dimuwa_Gaming_YT]

Legendary memory on my childhood 2008 ❤🎉

[@brenthill3241]

Thank-you for uploading this. Great for Hallowe'en. Had this on my new computer in early 2001 because I liked Windows 98. It would do a lot if you played with it. It was great for someone who was a little late getting into computers. Can't believe I'm looking at 2001 as the simple times.

[@Cemoman17]

I think I remember this! I remember one screensaver and it had an old man sitting in a chair and a telephone or something like that. The memories...

[@calculus400]

That'd actually be the screensaver for the The Golden Era desktop theme.

[@calculus400]

Both themes are good, though. :)

[@Cemoman17]

Oh I'll try and look for it haha.

[@absinthexiii4376]

Omg this brings back so many wonderful memories.

[@marymoonchild2801]

Such nostalgia! I remember being a kid and loving this screensaver along with the maze one as much as I do remember playing Need for Speed II. and Prince of Persia ( from 89 of course ), Earthworm Jim ( god I loved that game )and at the age of eight beating everyones ass in the games 😂 I wish I was a child again

[@josephcunningham6567]

[@Gummi69420]

I have a memory of crying whenever I heard this screensaver as a kid.

[@TheNazzerDawk]

I remember laying up late one night at my aunt's house. She had this screensaver, and it scared the crap outta me as I laid on the couch.

[@thedoomguru]

Ahaha. I remember my old computer actually not having the two side partitions of the house and the front fence missing. When that owl will rarely let out that booming hoot, it used to scare me pretty bad xD

[@fun456ful]

My familys first computer we would use this screensaver at Halloween and it scared me & my little sister the opening music did . I had a virtual machine of windows 98 and I used this as the screensaver when it wasn't Halloween because it was pure nostalgia for me

[@analizaperez7332]

Yeah. I miss the old thing seldom.

[@Damian-lu8sx]

I remember my cousin would set this as a screensaver when I was just a few years old and this would scare the shit out of me. Especially those sounds.

[@952shadowman]

Dude this scared me when walking upstairs and my dad's computer sat up there in a upstairs lobby with this screensaver, my bedroom was down a hall so I mean yeah nostalgic yet scary lol

[@argalterra1436]

At the edge of 2020 and you still looking for and watching it, you are legend... Miss every sound and visual that it Made anyway, Intro Owl Opened door Bat Old man blowing the candle Someone turn off and turn on the bed lamp And the mood 😍😚

I remember sitting in front of the computer waiting for this to come on...good ol' days.

[@uzmam2612]

Thank you for this. definitely a throwback.

[@fenriswolflp-verlierenmits5952]

I loved this screensaver. WIth the fitting screen theme. As a child I always thought it was related to the game Nitemare3D. that I played at the time. Years later I found out that it was a generic screensaver, but at this time I loved the Addams Family (old, new, and movies) so I may saw similarities to that.

[@jeffreydahmer6547]

i luv this screensaver, however it used 2 scare me as a small child.

[@postmann1000]

it is 2015, and we don't have cool screensaver like this..

[@banana9494]

i watched this so much as a kid that the image of the house got burned into my dads monitor over time. which im pretty sure is what screensavers were supposed to prevent but yeah.
