==Synopsis==
The plot begins with two puppies who receive a "dream message" about a kitten kidnapped by an evil witch and travel to the dark land of Sufferdark to save it. However, early clues signal that something is wrong, as glitches, [[screamers]] and a masked live-action figure called the Huntmaster (real name: Nathan Israel)<ref>poocheeandpansy.fandom.com/wiki/The_Huntmaster</ref> suggest the animation is being hijacked by an outside reality.<ref name="ref2">youtube.com/watch?v=Ldra-ob_ceQ</ref><ref name="ref3">youtube.com/watch?v=FaCoQ25JIXs</ref>


According to ScareTheater, the series was created to recruit viewers for an alternate reality game called: "Hunt for the Gangadiddle", it was spread around 4chan on a somewhat unknown date, the point of it is to recruit users to find the mystery of Gangadiddle.<ref>youtube.com/watch?v=FaCoQ25JIXs - ScareTheater analysis.</ref> (See below on the "[[Poochee and Pansy#Trivia|Trivia]]" part for more.)
As the episodes progress, the "fourth wall" breaks entirely when the characters stop talking to each other and begin delivering clues and warnings to the viewer, such as "What's on TV is real; what's outside is make-believe." Hidden audio and text from the early 2010s describe a "mass extinction" where 96% of life on Earth has been devoured by an entity called the Gangadiddle.<ref name="ref2" />

All episodes in the series.
===Episode 1: The Quest for the Midnight Crown===
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 telepathic SOS 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 Freddie appears and tries to lead them through the cave, however, he is interrupted by a skull with one eye along with a loud screech. There is a link to a website that can be found in the information section of the YouTube channel. In 2020, the video was remastered, but the screamer was removed.


===Episode 2: Danger In The Dark! ($ £Wv$ER&8765435 w%4%^$£%@£@)===
The show’s creator, Rob Dolst, was a member of a cult as a child, where children were taught to "shift" their minds and focus so hard on imaginary friends that the characters would physically appear. Poochee and Pansy are implied to be ghosts of these childhood manifestations or the repressed memories of "David," a character whose mind "traverses many parallels."<ref name="ref2" />
The episode starts off with footage of a flower garden before cutting to the title card. The series' name appears normally, but it briefly glitches, shows a picture of a monster from Junji Ito' for a split second, then shows the title card, except the title is blurred out and the narrator's speech is jumbled and noisy.  


The episode itself features Poochee with no eyes and Pansy with no mouth, followed by the voice of Poochee saying: "Yes, you are probably right." from the previous episode. This goes on for a while before the cartoon distorts and the audio glitches. We then cut to footage of someone filming in a dark room. They come across various household items such as a bowl of soup, a sink, and a clock. We then cut to a clip of The Huntmaster walking from the right and facing the screen. He ends the episode by reaching for the camera, his black glove covering it.
In the original "game", the player (the "Hunter") must find the Gangadiddle in the real world to stop the "program" from completing its takeover. The "G" symbol shows that the monster has finally moved from the TV show into the real world. The 2019 "Remasters" suggest a figure called "The Technician" is still fighting to free Nathan and Rob from the cult's influence.<ref name="ref2" /><ref name="ref3" />

==Episodes Content==
===Episode 1: The Quest for the Midnight Crown===
[[File:Sufferdark.png|thumb|200px|The map leading from Puppy Hill to a cave from Sufferdark.]]
In the first episode, a narrator introduces our eponymous pups and mentions that one day Poochee urgently needed to tell Pansy something. He tells her about a strange dream he had, involving a kitten locked up by an evil witch. She had the same dream, so Poochee concludes that, because of this, the dream must be a telepathic SOS message meant for them. They prepare to venture to Sufferdark, where they encounter Batwing Cave, which they must traverse to reach Sufferdark. A firefly named Freddie appears and tries to guide them through the cave; however, he is interrupted by a skull with one eye, accompanied by a loud screech. There is a link to a website that can be found in the YouTube channel's information section. In 2020, the video was remastered, but the jump scare was removed.
===Episode 2: $ £Wv$ER&8765435 w%4%^$£%@£@$%g gggggg gggggggg===
The episode begins with images of a flower garden before transitioning to the title card. The series name appears normally, but briefly fails to display, showing an image of a Junji Ito monster for a split second, then the title card appears, except the title is blurred and the narrator's speech is muffled and noisy.


This episode was apparently taken down originally for unknown reasons but has since come back. In 2021, a remaster was posted, showing what the episode truly looks like.
The episode itself features Poochee without eyes and Pansy without a mouth, followed by Poochee's voice saying, "Yeah, you're probably right," from the previous episode. This continues for a while before the cartoon distorts and the audio cuts out. The episode then shows footage of someone filming in a dark room. They encounter various household items, such as a bowl of soup, a sink, and a clock. It then cuts to a clip of "The Master of the House" walking in from the right and looking into the screen. The episode ends with him reaching for the camera, his black glove covering it.


This episode was originally removed for unknown reasons, but it has since returned. In 2021, a remastered version was released, showing what the episode actually looks like.
===Episode 3: The Witch's Bargain===
===Episode 3: The Witch's Bargain===
The episode begins normally for a second, but the series' title briefly becomes sinister (the text turns black, the sky turns red, and a different, more ominous piano piece plays) before returning to normal. As the episode title appears, a narrator (not the same as the last two) informs us that Poochee and Pansy have made it to Sufferdark to confront the witch. As this happens, a brief visual distortion occurs, revealing a cartoon Huntmaster standing near the tree.

The episode begins normally for a second, but the series title briefly takes a sinister turn (the text goes black, the sky turns red, and a different, more ominous piano piece plays) before returning to normal. When the episode title appears, a narrator (not the same one as in the previous two episodes) informs us that Poochee and Pansy have arrived in Sufferdark to confront the witch. As this is happening, a brief visual distortion occurs, revealing the "master hunter" drawn and standing near the tree.


The episode proper starts with Poochee in the witch's lair, looking for a missing Pansy. He eventually finds her trapped in a hanging cage that's placed over a vat of green liquid. The witch herself then appears and wagers a deal with Poochee to free Pansy: she'll let her go if he lets her take his eyes. Pansy begs Poochee not to, but Poochee, unable to think of any other way to rescue her, reluctantly accepts the offer. We then see the witch's hand slowly inch closer towards Poochee as he cries. Just before anything bad happens, we cut to footage of a fan running, a brief close-up of the witch, footage of a phone off its hook beeping, and a clip of a doll's face accompanied by the sound of a girl crying; one of the doll's eyes is noticeably bulging. The video ends with the sinister title background from earlier with the message: "You are alone but you do not know it."
The episode itself begins with Poochee in the witch's lair, searching for the missing Pansy. He eventually finds her trapped in a hanging cage placed over a vat of green liquid (acid). The witch herself then appears and makes a deal with Poochee to free Pansy: she will let her go if he allows her to gouge out her eyes. Pansy begs Poochee not to, but Poochee, unable to think of any other way to rescue her, reluctantly agrees. We then see the witch's hand slowly reaching out to Poochee as he cries. Just before anything bad happens, we cut to footage of a running fan, a brief close-up of the witch, footage of an off-hook telephone emitting a beep, and a clip of a doll's face accompanied by the sound of a child crying (possibly Pansy from the fright when Poochee's eyes were removed); one of the doll's eyes is noticeably bulging. The video ends with the same ominous background title as before, with the message: "You are alone, but you don't know it."
===Episode 4: The Witch's Eye===
[[File:PC4.png|thumb|200px|right|A message written in blood-red text on the snow.]]
The video first shows a Japanese version of the title card, complete with English subtitles. The image distorts several times before the episode title appears, translating to "The Witch's Eye." A Japanese narrator then tells us that the two puppies have defeated the witch off-screen and are now going to rescue the kitten. Two brief glimpses of the eyeless witch then appear, accompanied by a scream heard a second time.


===Episode 4: The Witch's Eye (ぷちとパンジー。第4章。魔女の目)===
The episode opens with Poochee and Pansy standing in front of a locked door. Poochee tells Pansy he knows the kitten is behind it. When she asks how he knows, he replies that with the witch's eye he wears over one of his own, he can see right through the door. We then see a wide shot of the door before the cartoon distorts, with the text "You Can't Hide" briefly visible. We then cut to images of icicles with low-pitched beeps in the background. Next, we cut to someone walking in the snow, the camera pointing at the ground. After a moment, they find the text "Find You" written in the snow; this text then turns into a completely white animated image that is covered in red. The image returns to live action and remains on screen for a while. We then cut to the "Hunting Master" reaching for the screen, followed by a close-up of the icicles. Then, against a black background, red text appears that reads, "Everyone in your world is dead except you. Only you exist." Then, the video ends with a flash of the white text "FIND YOU".
The video first shows a Japanese version of the title card, complete with English subtitles. The picture distorts a few times before the episode title appears, translating to "The Witch's Eye". A Japanese narrator then tells us that the two puppies have defeated the witch off-screen and are now off to rescue the kitten. Then, two brief flashes of the witch with no eyes appear, with a scream heard the second time.  
===Episode 5: ____________________________________________________===
[[File:PC5.png|thumb|200px|A crude drawing of a real forest, shown as a cutaway in Episode 5.]]
We begin with "The Hunting Master" telling the viewer, "You can't hide..." as he turns toward the screen. We then cut to the usual title screen; as usual, it fails a couple of times. A series of strange and disturbing images then appear, such as a man cowering in fear, a dog with sharp teeth, a cartoon forest with tree stumps, and images of the house from the second episode before the episode title appears, completely obliterated by a black censor panel. More images appear accompanied by splashing sounds, such as [[Smile Dog]], the Junji Ito monster, the eyeless witch from the last episode, an eyeless Poochee, the sinister title screen with the text "All Dead" at the bottom, the "Find You" text also from the last episode, as well as icicles, the title screen with "YOU ARE ALONE" printed on it, and images of a basement. "The Hunting Master" reappears as his body begins to thrash wildly, and loud distortion noises are heard.


The episode starts by showing Poochee and Pansy standing at a door with a lock on it. Poochee proclaims to Pansy that he knows the kitten is behind it. When she asks how he knew that, he replies by stating that, with the witch's eye he's wearing over one of his own, he can see through the door. We then see a long shot of the door before the cartoon distorts, with the text "Cannot hide" briefly visible. We then cut to footage of icicles with low-pitched beeping in the background. We then cut to someone walking in the snow, the camera pointed at the ground. After a moment, they find the text "Find You" written in the snow; said text then becomes a completely white animated picture that gets covered with red. The image returns to live-action and stays on screen for a while. We then cut to The Huntmaster reaching for the screen, then a close-up of the icicles. Then, on a black background, red text appears reading "Everyone in your world is dead but you. Only you exist." The video then ends with a flash of the white text "FIND YOU".
The episode proper finally begins. We see two yellow eyes in the darkness of the doorway. Poochee happily exclaims that it's the kitten. The kitten then appears from the doorway, meowing. The animals then stare at each other for an extended period before the episode cuts to strange and random clips, including an evil Poochee, the house, the skull howler, the witch, and clips from the Disney short The Story of Menstruation. During this, we cut to the creepy title screen where a stylized G appears for a second. Footage from Menstruation returns, where the girl's reflection comes to life and smiles at the screen; the scene then zooms in on the reflection as her smile becomes more eerie and that part of the image becomes sharper; her face then zooms in, accompanied by a roar. We then cut to the interior of the house; the text "All Dead" is written on the wall in blood red near some images. Then we cut to someone walking through the woods and entering an area with many tree stumps, which is then compared to the cartoon forest drawing. We then see Poochee telling us, "Remember, what's on TV is real. When you go outside and look at the rest of the world, that's a lie." The face of the girl, Menstruation reappears with a scream, followed by the full version of the first line: "You can't hide from the truth." The G from before appears again, ending the video.
===Episode 6: Message from the Gxx%$£^$===
[[File:EP6.png|thumb|right|200px|The Episode 6 title card with "Gangadiddle" hidden by a mosaic blur.]]
[[File:EP6G.png|thumb|right|200px|The uncensored version of the title card revealing the creature's name.]]
The video opens with footage of a swinging swing accompanied by ghostly sounds before the title appears. The title glitches a couple of times, as usual. The episode title appears, but the last word is blurred. However, if you pause it briefly as it appears, it's revealed to be Gangadiddle, the name of the main creature in the ARG on which this series is based. During this, the music and narration become distorted and loud. We briefly see the icicles from the fourth episode with two red eyes superimposed on the image, like a monster's face. Then the episode begins.


===Episode 5: (Unnamed)===
The episode shows Poochee and Pansy with the kitten at home. Pansy notices that Poochee's eye has returned to normal, explaining that it's one of the eye's powers. Shortly after, a scroll materializes in front of the three of them. Poochee begins to read it, but before she can find out who it's from, the video shows an illustration of Gangdiddle as the image distorts. It then cuts to a life-size Gangdiddle figure on a table. Next, we see a panda's face on a jack-in-the-box with moving eyes and the typical lullaby "Brahms ' Lullaby" playing in the background; after a while, the panda screams at the viewer. We then pan around the house, including shots of Skull Screamer and the doll from previous episodes. Then, the "master hunter" reappears, reaching his hand toward the screen, followed by a flurry of strange images from previous episodes. The episode ends with the message: "You must find him to be free!"
We start with The Huntmaster telling the viewer "You cannot hide." as he turns to face the screen. We then cut to the usual title screen; as usual, it glitches a few times. A series of odd and disturbing images then appear such as a man cowering in fright, a dog with sharp teeth, a cartoon forest with tree stumps, and footage of the house from the second episode before the episode title appears, completely blanked out by a black censor panel. More images appear accompanied by splatter sounds such as Smile Dog, the Junji Ito' monster, the witch with no eyes from the last episode, Poochee with no eyes, the sinister title screen with the text "All dead" on the bottom, the "FIND YOU" text also from last episode as well as the icicles, the title screen with "YOU ARE ALONE" printed on it, and footage of a basement. The Huntmaster reappears as his body begins flailing wildly with loud distortion noises heard.


The episode proper finally begins. We see two yellow eyes in the darkness of the doorway. Poochee happily exclaims that it's the kitten. The kitten then appears from the doorway meowing. The animals then stare at each other for a prolonged time, before it cuts back to the random and odd clips, like an evil Poochee, the house, the skull screamer, the witch, and clips from the Disney short ''The Story of Menstruation''. During this, we cut to the creepy title screen where a stylized G pops up for a second. The ''Menstruation'' footage returns, where the girl's reflection comes to life and smiles at the screen; the scene then zooms into the reflection as her smile becomes more creepy; her face then comes up close accompanied by a loud roar. We then cut to inside the house; the "All dead" text is written on the wall in blood-red near some pictures. We then cut to someone walking in the woods and entering an area with many tree stumps, which is then compared to the cartoon forest drawing. We then see Poochee telling us "Remember, what's on TV is real. When you go outside and look at the rest of the world, that's what's make-believe." The ''Menstruation'' girl's face appears again with a loud scream. The G from before then appears again, ending the video.
===Episode 7: Rxxx 6 Cxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Pxxxxxxxx===
===Episode 6: Message from the Gangadiddle (Message from the Gxx%$£^$)===
The seventh and final episode was aired on May 14, 2012. The episode begins with a normal title card, then it cuts to the episode title, where the title is covered up. It cuts to Poochee, Pansy, and the kitten. The kitten meows, followed by the jump scare, then it cuts to computer processing data. It cuts to the faceless Pansy and the kitten and eyeless Poochee, who is saying the message from the end of the fifth episode. The video then cuts to footage of someone walking through their backyard while unearthly noises play, including a shot of a worm crawling on the man's arm. It cuts to the sinister background with the message saying: "David's mind traverses many parallels. His memories will help you.", followed by the code XRZ9hOUIFec and the letter G, then the episode ends.
The video begins with footage of a swing swaying with ghostly sounds before the title appears. The title glitches a few times as per usual. The episode title shows up, but the last word is blurred out, though if one were quick to pause just as it appears, the word is revealed to be Gangadiddle, the name of the main creature of the ARG this series is centered around. During this, the music and narrator become distorted and loud. We briefly see the icicles from the fourth episode with two red eyes above the image, as if it were a monster's face. The episode then begins.


We see Poochee and Pansy with the kitten back at home. Pansy notes that Poochee's eye is back to normal, to which he explains that it's one of the eye's powers. Shortly thereafter, a scroll materializes in front of the three. Poochee starts to read it, but before he can get to who it's from, the video cuts to an illustration of the Gangadiddle as the picture distorts. We then cut to a live-action figure of the Gangadiddle on a table. We then see a panda's face on a jack-in-the-box with its eyes moving to play "Braham's Lullaby"; after a bit, the panda screams at the viewer. We then pan throughout the house, which includes shots of the skull screamer and the doll from previous episodes. The Huntmaster then appears again reaching out for the screen, followed by a flurry of odd images from previous episodes. The episode ends with the message: "You must find it to become free!"
===Special Announcement===
 
The video opens with the Dolst Family Entertainment logo as Poochee, Pansy, and the witch reassure viewers that the show is not real and there is no reason to be afraid. However, the footage soon distorts as the characters transform into sinister forms, with the puppies becoming demonic creatures and the witch turning into the Huntmaster. The viewer is then bombarded with a series of bizarre images, including a doll's head, the witch, and the text "''You are alone''" mixed with footage of birds and the skull [[screamer]]. The video then cuts to footage of someone walking through a hospital hallway, ending abruptly with a flash of the "All dead" text just as the person reaches the doors.
=== Episode 7: Rxxx 6 Cxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Pxxxxxxxx ===
== Links ==
The title appears normal before fading away. The episode title then appears, but only Part 7 is readable; the rest is obscured by a picture of a man's face covering it up. Poochee, Pansy, and the kitten then appear. As calming piano music plays, the trio is seen smiling cutely at the screen for several seconds until the kitten meows. A more detailed version of the kitten's head appears on a flashing background with a loud meow. We then cut to a computer processing data, then we cut back to the trio, except the sky is dark, Pansy and the kitten are missing their faces, and Poochee is missing his eyes. He then restates the warped message he said at the end of the fifth episode. The video then cuts to footage of someone walking through their backyard while unearthly noises play, including a shot of a worm crawling on the man's arm. We then head to the ending, where on the sinister title background, the text "David's mind traverses many parallels. His memories will help you." appears, followed by the code XRZ 9hOUIFec, and a flash of the G, ending the series.
 
==Misc==
==='''Special Announcement'''===
 
The video starts with the Dolst Family logo and the text "An important message from Dolst Family Entertainment." We then see Poochee, Pansy, and the witch standing next to a tree. They tell us that you shouldn't worry about the scary things you see on TV, and that what's on TV is fake and what's outdoors is real. Just as they say that the video distorts and the characters change; Poochee and Pansy turn into demon dogs while the witch turns into The Huntmaster. We then see a flurry of odd images, including the doll head, the witch, the text "You are alone", birds flying past cars, the skull screamer, the house footage tinted red, and the text "Trying to reach you" written seven times. A voice is heard saying: "This is the greatest mass extinction in earth's history. 96% of all life forms disappear off of the face of the earth. The murder victims show evidence of being partially devoured by the murderers.", taken from Night of the Living Dead. We then cut to a clip of someone walking down a hospital hallway; just as they reach the doors, the title screen appears with a flash of the "All dead" text, ending the video.
===The Sequel===
The channel announces the sequel: "Poochee and Pansy 2" at approximately 3:30 am, however, it is revealed that it was some hacker using the alias: "The Technician", They uploaded a fraudulent video that falsely claimed, the video was immediately deleted by the creator, upon regaining access to the channel, and quickly apologize to the viewer by uploaded this [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nvr36EaG17w particular video].

Poochee and Pansy is an ARG-related web-series created by Dolst Family Entertainment in 2009 and then posted on YouTube. The series focuses on two puppies called Poochee and Pansy trying to rescue a kitten from the witch. However, the series contains horror elements such as jump scares, eerie footage, blood, etc. The series consists of 7 episodes. The series was created to recruit viewers for an alternate reality game called Hunt for the Gangadiddle. The series is now being remastered by Dream Axiom, but unlike the original series, it doesn't contain horror content.

Synopsis

The plot begins with two puppies who receive a "dream message" about a kitten kidnapped by an evil witch and travel to the dark land of Sufferdark to save it. However, early clues signal that something is wrong, as glitches, screamers and a masked live-action figure called the Huntmaster (real name: Nathan Israel)[1] suggest the animation is being hijacked by an outside reality.[2][3]

As the episodes progress, the "fourth wall" breaks entirely when the characters stop talking to each other and begin delivering clues and warnings to the viewer, such as "What's on TV is real; what's outside is make-believe." Hidden audio and text from the early 2010s describe a "mass extinction" where 96% of life on Earth has been devoured by an entity called the Gangadiddle.[2]

The show’s creator, Rob Dolst, was a member of a cult as a child, where children were taught to "shift" their minds and focus so hard on imaginary friends that the characters would physically appear. Poochee and Pansy are implied to be ghosts of these childhood manifestations or the repressed memories of "David," a character whose mind "traverses many parallels."[2]

In the original "game", the player (the "Hunter") must find the Gangadiddle in the real world to stop the "program" from completing its takeover. The "G" symbol shows that the monster has finally moved from the TV show into the real world. The 2019 "Remasters" suggest a figure called "The Technician" is still fighting to free Nathan and Rob from the cult's influence.[2][3]

Episodes Content

Episode 1: The Quest for the Midnight Crown

The map leading from Puppy Hill to a cave from Sufferdark.

In the first episode, a narrator introduces our eponymous pups and mentions that one day Poochee urgently needed to tell Pansy something. He tells her about a strange dream he had, involving a kitten locked up by an evil witch. She had the same dream, so Poochee concludes that, because of this, the dream must be a telepathic SOS message meant for them. They prepare to venture to Sufferdark, where they encounter Batwing Cave, which they must traverse to reach Sufferdark. A firefly named Freddie appears and tries to guide them through the cave; however, he is interrupted by a skull with one eye, accompanied by a loud screech. There is a link to a website that can be found in the YouTube channel's information section. In 2020, the video was remastered, but the jump scare was removed.

Episode 2: $ £Wv$ER&8765435 w%4%^$£%@£@$%g gggggg gggggggg

The episode begins with images of a flower garden before transitioning to the title card. The series name appears normally, but briefly fails to display, showing an image of a Junji Ito monster for a split second, then the title card appears, except the title is blurred and the narrator's speech is muffled and noisy.

The episode itself features Poochee without eyes and Pansy without a mouth, followed by Poochee's voice saying, "Yeah, you're probably right," from the previous episode. This continues for a while before the cartoon distorts and the audio cuts out. The episode then shows footage of someone filming in a dark room. They encounter various household items, such as a bowl of soup, a sink, and a clock. It then cuts to a clip of "The Master of the House" walking in from the right and looking into the screen. The episode ends with him reaching for the camera, his black glove covering it.

This episode was originally removed for unknown reasons, but it has since returned. In 2021, a remastered version was released, showing what the episode actually looks like.

Episode 3: The Witch's Bargain

A frame of the distorted title card, featuring The Huntmaster in the background.

The episode begins normally for a second, but the series title briefly takes a sinister turn (the text goes black, the sky turns red, and a different, more ominous piano piece plays) before returning to normal. When the episode title appears, a narrator (not the same one as in the previous two episodes) informs us that Poochee and Pansy have arrived in Sufferdark to confront the witch. As this is happening, a brief visual distortion occurs, revealing the "master hunter" drawn and standing near the tree.

The episode itself begins with Poochee in the witch's lair, searching for the missing Pansy. He eventually finds her trapped in a hanging cage placed over a vat of green liquid (acid). The witch herself then appears and makes a deal with Poochee to free Pansy: she will let her go if he allows her to gouge out her eyes. Pansy begs Poochee not to, but Poochee, unable to think of any other way to rescue her, reluctantly agrees. We then see the witch's hand slowly reaching out to Poochee as he cries. Just before anything bad happens, we cut to footage of a running fan, a brief close-up of the witch, footage of an off-hook telephone emitting a beep, and a clip of a doll's face accompanied by the sound of a child crying (possibly Pansy from the fright when Poochee's eyes were removed); one of the doll's eyes is noticeably bulging. The video ends with the same ominous background title as before, with the message: "You are alone, but you don't know it."

Episode 4: The Witch's Eye

A message written in blood-red text on the snow.

The video first shows a Japanese version of the title card, complete with English subtitles. The image distorts several times before the episode title appears, translating to "The Witch's Eye." A Japanese narrator then tells us that the two puppies have defeated the witch off-screen and are now going to rescue the kitten. Two brief glimpses of the eyeless witch then appear, accompanied by a scream heard a second time.

The episode opens with Poochee and Pansy standing in front of a locked door. Poochee tells Pansy he knows the kitten is behind it. When she asks how he knows, he replies that with the witch's eye he wears over one of his own, he can see right through the door. We then see a wide shot of the door before the cartoon distorts, with the text "You Can't Hide" briefly visible. We then cut to images of icicles with low-pitched beeps in the background. Next, we cut to someone walking in the snow, the camera pointing at the ground. After a moment, they find the text "Find You" written in the snow; this text then turns into a completely white animated image that is covered in red. The image returns to live action and remains on screen for a while. We then cut to the "Hunting Master" reaching for the screen, followed by a close-up of the icicles. Then, against a black background, red text appears that reads, "Everyone in your world is dead except you. Only you exist." Then, the video ends with a flash of the white text "FIND YOU".

Episode 5: ____________________________________________________

A crude drawing of a real forest, shown as a cutaway in Episode 5.

We begin with "The Hunting Master" telling the viewer, "You can't hide..." as he turns toward the screen. We then cut to the usual title screen; as usual, it fails a couple of times. A series of strange and disturbing images then appear, such as a man cowering in fear, a dog with sharp teeth, a cartoon forest with tree stumps, and images of the house from the second episode before the episode title appears, completely obliterated by a black censor panel. More images appear accompanied by splashing sounds, such as Smile Dog, the Junji Ito monster, the eyeless witch from the last episode, an eyeless Poochee, the sinister title screen with the text "All Dead" at the bottom, the "Find You" text also from the last episode, as well as icicles, the title screen with "YOU ARE ALONE" printed on it, and images of a basement. "The Hunting Master" reappears as his body begins to thrash wildly, and loud distortion noises are heard.

The episode proper finally begins. We see two yellow eyes in the darkness of the doorway. Poochee happily exclaims that it's the kitten. The kitten then appears from the doorway, meowing. The animals then stare at each other for an extended period before the episode cuts to strange and random clips, including an evil Poochee, the house, the skull howler, the witch, and clips from the Disney short The Story of Menstruation. During this, we cut to the creepy title screen where a stylized G appears for a second. Footage from Menstruation returns, where the girl's reflection comes to life and smiles at the screen; the scene then zooms in on the reflection as her smile becomes more eerie and that part of the image becomes sharper; her face then zooms in, accompanied by a roar. We then cut to the interior of the house; the text "All Dead" is written on the wall in blood red near some images. Then we cut to someone walking through the woods and entering an area with many tree stumps, which is then compared to the cartoon forest drawing. We then see Poochee telling us, "Remember, what's on TV is real. When you go outside and look at the rest of the world, that's a lie." The face of the girl, Menstruation reappears with a scream, followed by the full version of the first line: "You can't hide from the truth." The G from before appears again, ending the video.

Episode 6: Message from the Gxx%$£^$

The Episode 6 title card with "Gangadiddle" hidden by a mosaic blur.
The uncensored version of the title card revealing the creature's name.

The video opens with footage of a swinging swing accompanied by ghostly sounds before the title appears. The title glitches a couple of times, as usual. The episode title appears, but the last word is blurred. However, if you pause it briefly as it appears, it's revealed to be Gangadiddle, the name of the main creature in the ARG on which this series is based. During this, the music and narration become distorted and loud. We briefly see the icicles from the fourth episode with two red eyes superimposed on the image, like a monster's face. Then the episode begins.

The episode shows Poochee and Pansy with the kitten at home. Pansy notices that Poochee's eye has returned to normal, explaining that it's one of the eye's powers. Shortly after, a scroll materializes in front of the three of them. Poochee begins to read it, but before she can find out who it's from, the video shows an illustration of Gangdiddle as the image distorts. It then cuts to a life-size Gangdiddle figure on a table. Next, we see a panda's face on a jack-in-the-box with moving eyes and the typical lullaby "Brahms ' Lullaby" playing in the background; after a while, the panda screams at the viewer. We then pan around the house, including shots of Skull Screamer and the doll from previous episodes. Then, the "master hunter" reappears, reaching his hand toward the screen, followed by a flurry of strange images from previous episodes. The episode ends with the message: "You must find him to be free!"

Episode 7: Rxxx 6 Cxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Pxxxxxxxx

The seventh and final episode was aired on May 14, 2012. The episode begins with a normal title card, then it cuts to the episode title, where the title is covered up. It cuts to Poochee, Pansy, and the kitten. The kitten meows, followed by the jump scare, then it cuts to computer processing data. It cuts to the faceless Pansy and the kitten and eyeless Poochee, who is saying the message from the end of the fifth episode. The video then cuts to footage of someone walking through their backyard while unearthly noises play, including a shot of a worm crawling on the man's arm. It cuts to the sinister background with the message saying: "David's mind traverses many parallels. His memories will help you.", followed by the code XRZ9hOUIFec and the letter G, then the episode ends.

Special Announcement

The video opens with the Dolst Family Entertainment logo as Poochee, Pansy, and the witch reassure viewers that the show is not real and there is no reason to be afraid. However, the footage soon distorts as the characters transform into sinister forms, with the puppies becoming demonic creatures and the witch turning into the Huntmaster. The viewer is then bombarded with a series of bizarre images, including a doll's head, the witch, and the text "You are alone" mixed with footage of birds and the skull screamer. The video then cuts to footage of someone walking through a hospital hallway, ending abruptly with a flash of the "All dead" text just as the person reaches the doors.
