I love how most of the horror of this story didn't come from supernatural monsters, but from human beings and the broken mind of the tour guide. Like this could have been another story where the characters run from scary monsters and that was it, but the author spun that classic story into something that felt so much more real and tangible. Plus, this guy's narration paints such a vivid picture in your mind I can fully remember seeing Mariette through her glass exhibit and that freaky fly thing moving through the halls. It's just like watching a movie but better in some ways

[@jenbingham0914]

Absolutely true. It is just as visual that you create in your head as a movie would be.

[@aguspuig6615]

idk it felt a bit forced imo, still really enjoyed the story, but the whole ''the worst evil of this world isnt the supernatural but the depravity of humans themselves'' message was forced, its like you literally become inhuman if youre rich enough, wich makes no sense, honestly how comically evil all the rich guys were, but the second a middle class girl appears she just wants to make the human sized fly into her ''equal'' it feels like a chapter from the comunist equivalent of the bible, were every rich guy is comically evil and every middle class person is beyond a saint

Ngl, this is really fucking good writing. The ending, him essentially dancing with the most prominent of the museums other victims, him accepting his insanity, only for the museum to continue his torture by one single act, revoking Mariettes life and allowing her to be a perfect, plastic doll. Such a happy, happy ending. :)

[@sergeysmirnov1062]

Personally, I tend to believe that the museum didn't revoke Mariette's life out of cruelty, rather, it allowed her to become the doll she always wanted to be, letting her soul move on then as he finally fully accepted his position as the guide. It probably sensed that he didn't truly want to be the guide before, thus trapping the soul of the old one in case he would actually manage to flee. Only at the end, after he finally accepted his position could Mariette in turn be free.

@@forgotten1s And what exactly do you do for a living? Why are you paid and by whom? What you said is insulting and now I'm simply curious. For example I am a union journeyman licensed plumber. I get paid by providing customers plumbing services that took a 5 year apprenticeship to learn. Everything from installing medical equipment in hospitals, to refinery mains and towers, to sinks and johns in some far off middle school. I didnt MAKE the pipe, fittings, glue, tools needed, fixtures, ect. No, other people made all that. I didnt design the blueprints. I didnt do any of the mechanical engineering. Now, using all of those things made by others, I can create a final product. Much like when a narrator reads a authors work. Both are needed for YOU to be entertained. Engineers like to think they know how to do my job but rarely can they step up and show us how its done. Everyone on a project is important for a successful outcome. Seriously, you can't be THAT stupid so im going to assume your comment was made as a joke. Otherwise, your some spoiled kid that has no clue about anything outside your little bubble. Either case, your an idiot for saying that and I hope you see this and respond like a man.

[@chocomini230]

My theory about the ending is that when he had laid down in the snow “to sleep”, he wasn’t saved, instead his body started going through the stages of death, and he essentially imagined the rest of the story as a comfort in his last moments. His brain wanted him to die after seeing his daughter, happy and free, alive and all grown up. He was able to kill his boss that he hated. What really made me think that towards the end was the final moments when he starts mentioning mariettes “color of cold lips” and the night sky spinning, it felt like the final steps before passing on. At the end when he pauses and goes “Mariette?” I imagined its when he sort of realized what was going on and that the dancing wasn’t real, the music wasn’t real, he was alone. and then the end. Just my interpretation. The entire story is so amazing, and the narration was exceptional as always.

[@foncess]

For all the people who didn’t understand the ending, here’s my theory: The narrator went mad, I believe the majority of the final sequence was completely in his head. He murdered people needlessly on an imaginary crusade for freedom until he finally got through the metal door. In that last scene, he wasn’t dancing with Mariette, he was dancing alone in the aftermath of the bloodbath he created. (If you have an idea that you think makes more sense, post it in the replies. I’d love to hear it.)

Steel, plastic, glass, Mariette, Micheal, and Sophia. Mariette is supposedly plastic, her mind was warped and molded by Johnny RazorTongue like a piece of plastic, yet she is imprisoned in glass, and her mind remains the most steel-like of the three. She is unwavering. Which is ironic. Micheal, the narrator, describes as he goes to speak with Johnny Razortongue, that his mind has been hardened into steel by his 15 years as guide, and that Mariette did not have as hardened of a mind. Yet, we see Micheal's personality shattering like glass throughout the story, and then the pieces are reformed or molded like a literal piece of plastic, warped into conforming to the role of the museum's guide. Finally, Sophia. She is imprisoned behind a steel door. She does not break or buckle like Mariette or Micheal. She sees Micheal as the monster he has become, and unwavering in her morality, flees the museum. Perhaps Mariette kills Micheal at the end. His mind and personality are plastic, fake and easily reshaped. None of the other glass enclosures were shattered. He opened the front door, fled the museum, opened the warehouse, and in the process shattered like glass. He opened the steel door, met his daughter, and was remade. Finally, he opened the last lock, Mariette's unscathed glass enclosure, and I think this must poetically be where he meets his end. He led her to the atrium for their dance, shortly after announcing himself as the guide. She is a former or current employee of the curator, so perhaps she is the one that the curator had mentioned would terminate the contract. She consumed plastic, and he had become figuratively a piece of plastic in the final act: fake, malleable, deformed, and compliant.

No Joke you are my favorite creepypasta reader of all time, I listen to you in school, while I'm gaming, Mowing, drawing, and its all ad free. The next time I get my paycheck I'm gonna become a channel member. I've been watching you for about a year now and I cant get enough.

[@matrixlag4074]

Well that was bloody fantastic. both narrator and writer deserve huge congrats for this marvel of a tale.

[@Belicure]

I normally avoid long creepypastas, but this one was good

[@foncess]

Why would you avoid them? The long ones are the best

[@lillysparrow]

@@foncess the same reason why people with a phobia avoid it.

[@caraj5054]

you are genuinely such an amazing channel omg !! i felt like i was watching a movie but like listening to it, the background music and sound effects are soo creepy and make everything come together. i love this so much !

[@lauxerlegends5973]

You always choose such great stories to tell (I love these emotional ones), and you voice them so well. I love the way you voice them and all the effects you add to them. It really brings the story to live.

[@kale2657]

2 hours of Somnium??? Yes please!

[@MySomberNights]

Honestly, the immersive and descriptive story telling helps me escape this world... these long pastas are always therapeutic for me Ronnie. Thankyou(:

[@Darksomnium]

:D

[@Tikachu]

You don't have nearly enough comments!! Another amazing production!!!! Kudos to you and all those you worked with. Big Kudos to the author!

[@nicayres3210]

Absolutely loved this! Beautifully written and narrated❤️

[@SlopdoshDoris]

That was absolutely breath taking, I had tears in my eyes at the end. Bravo story and fantastic narration, thank you.

[@lavuntecolquitt]

MAAAAAN this was one HELLUVA ride! You ALWAYS have the coldest stories, especially the series and longer ones like this.

[@onesownadversary]

The atmosphere you create with the voices and sound effects in these videos is phenomenal and freaky. You/your team put in some solid work.

[@sumiaranayake]

Just got off Romnex's 4 hour masterpiece, back in I go!

[@lumpofcole7]

thats a day for sure!

[@TdawnT]

This was really great. I saw people asking questions to the author. I think this may be one of those situations that will have multiple character stories that bring together the wholeness of the museum world. Love that Ernie though!

[@cassiepayne6704]

I absolutely loved this! Had me on edge the entire 2+hrs... i really hope there's a part 2 comming soon! Thank you for all your time and effort you put into gracing us with your stories The Dark Somnium! You voice brings them all to life! I can't get enough...

[@devon-jay655]

Pretty funny how he always says 'my contract has been broken, I'm going to be killed' but then all witnesses to the crime end up dying so he gets off scott free

[@yesterdayitrained]

No, the museum, the curator- they know. He was told he broke his contract and was going to be killed, and was nearly killed several times. Did you listen to/watch the entire thing?

[@Theology.101]

His soul was killed - the Curator deceived him into murdering five innocent people

[@onewhoeatswindows8280]

i absolutely loved this story. it was fantastic on its own, but DS's narration and ever stellar sound design just made it ten times better. im definitely going to have to reread/rewatch this one, because i feel like it was full of metaphors and i dont think ill stop thinking about it for a while!! definitely one of the few stories that truly had me hooked from start to finish, and that ill be coming back to many times in the future.

[@bendymelons1133]

Thank you Somnium, I have been in a not so happy mood and your videos always cheer me up, congrats on 400k and here’s to the next milestone

[@straynge]

I hope you feel better

[@somerandomshack]

Holy hell.. I love your videos to death. I listen to a lot of horror stories in my spare time but you always blow your competition out of the water in my opinion. It's one thing to have a story read aloud, but another to fully immerse the listener into the story. The music, the sound effects, the voice acting- literally everything is so well crafted. All of the details you add actually allow the imagination to fully capture the scene the author creates. Truly spectacular stuff!

[@maxstoner3647]

Hell yeah. I just off work and got an upload from one of my favorite KZbinrs. Your content has been helping me get through my break up. She left after 2 years and your stories help me focus on work, sleep, school, while having it in my background. Thanks for the content :)

[@Mardi-Shorts-DevonGirlUK]

Max - I just wanted to say hang in there and also, hoping the next stage of your life works out well for you....Sending positive vibes - blessings from MardiShorts 🦄❤️🙏🌞🌜

[@kari7403]

Aw man, that is a unique kind of ache. Really sucks that you have to endure that. I'm glad you were able to find comfort and some kind of solace in Dark Somniums stories. It's amazing what his work can do. It definitely got me through some rough times, also. I wish you all the best, and I hope your head and heart heal quickly, and that you end up finding what helps you be happiest in life. Wishing you all the best.

[@nutmegdragon]

I've been going to sleep earlier lately, so when I woke up to a 2 hour Dark Somnium narration I knew it'd be a good one. Perfect length to get ready for work to, and as always, your sound design is top notch. Always such a polish to your work; really impressive stuff. This story left me with chills, and definitely a great one to let linger in my mind. Thank you, Ronnie!

[@ariw9405]

This was fantastic! Best story I’ve heard in a long time. This author is amazing the detail in this story grabbed my attention unlike anything.

[@carsonladd7506]

The excitement I feel seeing new uploads from this amazing channel is pure bliss

[@elissaburris4467]

Just finished listening and I'm already listening again.

[@carrieboggs5615]

This should be a movie. I have listened to this so many times!!!

[@sevenseven7990]

A bitter sweet ending befitting a humble guide.

[@michaelmorin1926]

I wonder if today's CGI is advanced enough to recreate everything described in the story. If so I can only imagine what a absolutely terrifying movie it would be. I didn't check the length of this video beforehand and just now realized that over two hours just passed by as I listened to this. Completely consumed me. Awesome story!!! Excellent narration!!! There should be an awards show for these channels in order for everyone to show appreciation for a job well done. This channel would easily win. Fantastic job!!!

[@oojamesoo3930]

Oh my dear lord 2+hrs. Be still my beating heart, here we go...

[@KriminalKat]

This is probably the most well written creepypasta i have ever listened to. I'd love to hear more stories from this author, and your narration is impeccable.

[@aidenradway7520]

happy 400k man, been here since the beginning :)

[@Darksomnium]

thank you aiden :)

[@BrittyKitty_717]

This is one of the best stories I have heard in quite some time. Very creative, very amusing, hilarious at certain points. This author is a genius. And the narration was done so well! 👏

[@nathanialramirez160]

I was hoping you'd do this story! I read it as it came out and was waiting for a good narration.

[@secretsquirrel1534]

I have listened to this Episode on Several Occasions now and Absolutely LOVE these Stories of the Private Museum !!! Please, Please, Please, Write More of These Stories from the Museum to Help Save Our Sanity as We are Listening on from Our Own Private Hell !!! I am Hoping that You See this Even thou it has been a Couple of Years since You Posted it ! Thank You !!!

"The last attendee is not a guest....Cheerio!" Talk about your Sean Connery like character in Outland. LOL

[@bravatorto2784]

This is definitely one of my favorites so far. Awesome story and amazing narration, as always

[@wolfmancurry]

Another solid tale. This one is my fav so far. Other than the Secret Underground SCP facility story. I have a daughter, so this story got me in the feels. Not even gonna front on that.😎 Keep it up dude. I love the way you tell these. -Wolf

[@mattdean1718]

I always love listening to your narrations! They're so relaxing. Great for listening while doing work.

Wow, this was damn fantastic writing and your narration, music, and sound came together to elevate it to new heights. Thank you so much ❤️
