'''Poochee and Pansy''' is an ARG-related web series that focuses on two puppies that are from Puppy Hill trying to save a cat from an evil witch. The premiere episode, uploaded to YouTube in 2009, contains a [[screamer]]. However, this is only the beginning of what the series becomes.

The premiere episode, uploaded to YouTube in 2009, contains a [[screamer]]. However, this is only the beginning of what the series becomes. The series includes a plethora of disturbing imagery and eerie footage. The series consists of only seven episodes. In late 2014, episode 2 of Poochee and Pansy was deleted by [[YouTube]] moderators for unknown reasons and was restored five years later. The creator appealed to restore the original upload, but the appeal was rejected. | ||

In the first episode, a narrator introduces our eponymous puppy characters and mentions that one day Poochee urgently needed to tell something to Pansy.

He tells her about a strange dream he had, which involves a kitten being locked up by an evil witch. She had the same dream, so Poochee concludes that because of this, the dream must be a dream message directed at them. They prepare to venture to Sufferdark, where they come across Batwing Cave, which they must go through to reach Sufferdark. A firefly named Freddy appears and tries to lead them through the cave, however, he is interrupted by a rotten skull with one eye along with a loud distorted scream. The video used to have an annotation warning the viewers about the screamer. In 2019, the video was remastered; it is largely the same as the original, but the screamer was removed, allowing Freddy to finish his line. | ||

In the second episode of the series, the audience is greeted with a glitched title card that briefly displays an image of Binzo Tsujii from ''The Souichi Front''. The episode features Poochee and Pansy missing their respective facial features of eyes and mouth, and Poochee repeating a line from the previous episode. The audio and visuals distort before cutting to footage of a person exploring a dark room and encountering ordinary household items. The Huntmaster appears at the end of the episode, reaching for the camera. | In the second episode of the series, the audience is greeted with a glitched title card that briefly displays an image of Binzo Tsujii from ''The Souichi Front''.

The original episode was taken down for unknown reasons, but it was later reposted, and a remastered version was released in 2021. The remastered version shows Poochee and Pansy being led into a cave by Freddy, only to discover that he is a fake rockbat. They flee and get lost in the darkness, but soon find the real Freddy, injured from a rockbat attack. Despite their intention to help him, Freddy tells them to escape as more rockbats appear. The screen fades to black after Poochee moans in pain. The scene then shifts to Poochee waking up in a witch's lair, discovering that he and Pansy were knocked out by the rockbat's venom. He realizes that Pansy is missing and calls out for her, ending the episode. | The original episode was taken down in 2014 for unknown reasons, but it was later reposted, and a remastered version was released in 2021.

The video begins with The Huntmaster addressing the viewer, warning them that they "cannot hide." After a glitchy title screen, a series of unsettling images are shown, including a cowering man, a dog with sharp teeth, and footage of the house from a previous episode. The episode title is obscured by a black censor panel. More disturbing images follow, including [[Smile Dog]], Binzo Tsujii, and the witch with no eyes from the previous episode. The Huntmaster reappears, and his body flails wildly accompanied by loud distortion noises. The episode proper begins with two yellow eyes in a dark doorway, which Poochee identifies as the kitten they have been searching for. The animals stare at each other for an extended period before the scene cuts to a montage of random and unsettling clips, including an evil Poochee, the skull screamer, and footage from the Disney short, [[wikipedia:The_Story_of_Menstruation|''The Story of Menstruation'']]. The title screen appears again, featuring a stylized "G." The "Menstruation" footage returns, with the girl's reflection coming to life and smiling at the screen. The scene zooms in on the reflection as the girl's smile becomes more menacing, and a loud roar is heard. The scene then cuts to inside the house, where the message "All dead" is written in blood red on the wall near some pictures. We then see someone walking in the woods and entering an area with many tree stumps, which is compared to a cartoon forest drawing. Poochee warns the viewer that what is on TV is real, and everything else is make-believe. The "Menstruation" girl's face appears again with a loud scream, followed by the full version of the first line: "You cannot hide from the truth." The video ends with the stylized "G" from earlier appearing once more. | The video begins with The Huntmaster addressing the viewer, warning them that they "cannot hide."

The video opens with the Dolst Family Entertainment logo and a message from the characters Poochee, Pansy, and the witch, reassuring viewers that what is shown on TV is not real and that they should not be afraid. However, the video then distorts and the characters transform into sinister forms: Poochee and Pansy become demon dogs, while the witch becomes The Huntmaster. The viewer is then bombarded with a series of bizarre images, including the doll head, the witch, the text "You are alone," birds flying by cars, the skull screamer, the house footage tinted red, and the repeated phrase "Trying to reach you." A voice is heard reciting a quote from the classic horror film Night of the Living Dead, describing a mass extinction event in Earth's history and murder victims being devoured by their killers. The video then cuts to footage of someone walking through a hospital hallway, with the title screen appearing just as the person reaches the doors. The "All dead" text flashes briefly before the video abruptly ends, leaving the viewer with a sense of unease and uncertainty. | The video opens with the Dolst Family Entertainment logo and a message from the characters Poochee, Pansy, and the witch, reassuring viewers that what is shown on TV is not real and that they should not be afraid.
