Lotus has confirmed that the [[screamer]] took place inside the castle, mostly in the courtyard, rather than the ones claiming to have took place in the Bob-Omb Battlefield. Lotus mentioned that Mario has entered to an "alternate dimension", where textures (from which he drawn in MS Paint) are glitching out, possibly due to low memory issues with the emulator. On September 16, 2020, Lotus made two screenshots as a remake such as for the thumbnail (depiction of Mario standing in front of the courtyard statue) and some part featuring Mario next to the castle. | Lotus has confirmed that the [[screamer]] took place inside the castle, mostly in the courtyard, rather than the ones claiming to have took place in the Bob-Omb Battlefield.

On September 8, 2015, a Screamer Wiki user named SCL (also known as Socoollogos on FANDOM) posted his concern about the screamer on a thread in the Screamer Forum. One user also discovered the screamer as SCL was concerned about. He tried finding the screamer through the Wayback Machine, but only to find that no archives of the video had been made yet. The user also mentioned that an annotation popped up during the video, where Lotus said that he would remove the video because he was receiving hate. The reply had a different link to a reaction video, but it was made private. However, there are many posts about this screamer aside from this thread. Mahlv also uploaded his concerns about the lost Mario 64 screamer to YouTube on August 2020. Another documentary was then shortly followed at a later date, where it talks about the screamer being hunted by the Lost Media Wiki. | |||
There are no copies of the video that could possibly be found, which is pretty obvious. The only thing that one could find in searching for the update description and its thumbnail. The updated description says, "the video was done out of complete boredom, and yet people still wish to leave hateful comments. Therefore, commenting has been disabled. " So this could be the truth behind why Lotus deleted the video: because of how many death threats and hate comments he had received, rather than saying it was accidental. Both the thumbnail and updated description are more likely found through its Facebook page, which was created in late-2011. | |||
There is an only reaction video of this screamer, uploaded on February 5, 2008,<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HPe1hlC7B1Q "Little brother getting scared. Late reaction"]. [https://web.archive.org/web/20210109142815/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HPe1hlC7B1Q&gl=US&hl=en Archived] - GReeDYDeVASTATOR808 on [[YouTube]]. Accessed November 3, 2021.</ref> featuring someone's brother reacting to the half part of the [[screamer]]. It's hard to tell because of the low quality, but one can see Mario climbing up the stairs and opens the door, before the recorder proceeds to skip almost half of the screamer to the end part, where Lotus instructs the viewer to do the final step. After the screamer, the boy then runs away from the computer. Only what's left on the screen are the credits of the video. | |||
A Portuguese user named Nazz uploaded a 5-second video featuring a snapshot of the screamer. The uploader was questioned by a user from Lost Media Wiki about the screamer. He answered that it was found by one of his friends and was supposed to be taken from an old phone. Nazz also recorded his full reaction video to the screamer, but it was never found. The screenshot appears to be Mario jumping into the fountain at the back of the castle, where the courtyard statue is located. | |||
