It claims to be a genuine experiment, actually trying to hypnotize the viewer. The instructions advise viewers to dim the lights in their room to make the experiment work, which in reality serves to maximize the scare factor of the [[screamer]]. | '''Rabailkal Hypnotic Experiment No. 1''', also known as '''The Spot''', was the first in a series of two flash [[screamers]].

The website includes a fake profile that is translated into English and German of Dr. J.H. Rabailkal, who is said to be a university teacher and doctor of hypnosis and psychology from Bombay, India. Viewers are also personally greeted through a narrated message from Dr. Rabailkal as soon they enter the website, both in English and in German, spoken in a staged Indian accent, though the speaker's native Swiss accent slips through a couple of times during the German section. | [[File:Rabailkal.jpg|thumb|196x196px|left|Dr. J.H.

'''Rabailkal Hypnotic Experiment No. 2''', a.k.a. '''The Spiral''' was a [[Flash]] [[animation]] and serves as a sequel to Rabailkal Hypnotic Experiment 1. It tries to hypnotize the viewer, which in reality serves to maximize the scare factor. | |||
The game makes the player believe they can be hypnotized by focusing on a spinning orange spiral. After a couple of seconds have passed, a calm voice will start talking. A short while later, a zoom-in picture of a full glowing monster face with a red filter pops up along with a loud roar. After the [[screamer]], which has to click the button to start again, a picture of a full glowing monster face with a red filter pops up again along with the same roar. The German-language version of this screamer exists, which can be chosen at the beginning of the Flash animation when the viewer is asked to select their language. While the introductory text at the beginning is mostly a direct translation of the English text, the sentence that's repeatedly chanted during the experiment is also a different one. | |||
