So within the first week of tdim's release this came to me in a dream and I've only just now sorted out exactly how to capture the vibe, I have only altered as far as making it center on the morello sisters and stuff specific to Natalie's pov instead of my own... Other than that this 700+ word nightmare is completely 1-1 as I remembered it 2yrs after the fact

Natalie struggles to sleep, tossing and turning, trying to push down the sense of unease she feels, cursing herself for agreeing to come on this trip in the first place. No one normal sets out to replicate the actual literal murder castle and no one normal would ever agree to come here but dad said that it had to be five visitors and Mr Du'met is weird about it and the trip would be cancelled otherwise. She stares up at the ceiling, following the intricate patterns as a quiet knock sounds at her door followed by a soft. "Nat?" Bethany…

Natalie swings her legs out of bed, feeling the cold floorboards underfoot as she pads over to the door, unlocking it to let her sister in. Harsh yellowish lights sting her eyes as she opens the door to the hall, Bethany looks up at her over her pillow clutched to her chest. She still has nightmares…

"Can't sleep either, huh?" Natalie brushed a long strand of hair out of her face, shutting the door behind her leaving the room dimmly lit by cool moonlight pouring through the window. "There was a man with a skeleton face." Bethany presses close to her, Natalie felt a wave of anger that her eight year old sister was exposed to this place, it was one thing for herself at eighteen but Bethany? It was selfish. She knew this damn place and all its creepy mannequins would freak her out. She turns just enough to catch her glare in the full length mirror before she softens her demeanor, giving her sister a reassuring squeeze. "It was just a bad dream, look no one is coming in here, just us." She made a show of locking the door and demonstrating that it won't open without the key. Bethany crawled into bed and Natalie put her hands on her hips, putting on a smile that hopefully looked confident. Leaving the keys on the bedside table as she sits next to her. "See, just you and me now, get some sleep."

The sisters say their good nights before settling in. In a way this is better for Natalie, her sister coming to her room because of nightmares or thunderstorms… It was familiar in this place. She drifts off only a little after Bethany. Wrapped up in her arms, a slight breeze rustles pale translucent curtains… It's almost possible to forget where she is… She sinks into the void, her eagerness to leave for college, her resentment over how much her father's obsession comes first and her avoidance of family time falls away… Through the haze she sees one dazzling bright spot, blinding as it approaches but she can't look away… She feels warmth breathes on her face, rolling over in half sleep to feel Bethany's soft face against her cheek. Disoriented and turned around she looks through the searing yellow light, shapes move at her feet, a skull with fire in its eyes looms over her, it's all consuming presence pressing all around her, it gazes upon her, stealing the breath away from her-

-Natalie jolts awake, heart beating out of her chest, Bethany stays asleep, breaths steady and even. Natalie carefully sits up, nearly flinching at her reflection in the mirror on the opposite wall, she slides out of bed feeling a chill. Beginning to calm as she shuts the window, she looks down to see… A bowler hat? Like one of those old period costume pieces? She hadn't noticed it before, it must have been blown off the hat rack next to the mirror, she picks it up turning it over in her hands, struggling to imagine anyone's look benefiting from such an ugly hat, unless they're balding… She only looks up as she holds the hat up in the mirror, extending her arm over her head as she tries to imagine the wears height, yellow light casts dramatic shadows over half of her tired face, her short curly hair a mess. The harshness bothers her as she hangs the hat. Reaching out her heart stops, blood turning to ice as her finger tips make contact with the cold metal door knob. Her breath catches, feet rooted to the floor as her hand closed around it, bathed in garish light and fear beyond description…

…She had locked that door.

OK so basically where it ends is where I wake up, not just bolt upright but like I was on my feet halfway to checking if my door was locked before I could process that I was awake. I really wanted to convey how legitimately terrifying it was at the time, also literally every thing I have ever done of Hector Du'met was created after this, so rate my highly cinematic nightmare with attention to lighting and spacial placement lol(it had no business making that much sense)

Yeah he was close enough to breathe on her, don't ask me why the my subconscious thought it was a stellar idea to happen to me specifically Idk 😂

My love Dumet

[tinynightmarewoman]

I would have loved to see a little spin off or some shit about Du'met settling in to his second manor house after the first one goes tits up from the Lonnit crew. Just him quietly having to restart and get everything prepared in a new space after having to leave behind so much shit from the Murder Castle.

Add to that the fact he got cheese grated when he was pulled off the boat by a fucking anchor lodged in his shoulder I would loved to see a more dishevelled and torn up Du'met that's had to patch himself up and keep moving on to... you know... murder...

Like that man leaves behind authentic H.H. Holmes memorabilia, Manny Sherman's corpse, all his old shit from being Hector Munday, his fucking dead mother and he's still going! I want to know what that man has stored in this second place I want to know what its like moving in to there after losing years worth of absolutely everything.

I want to see what he does to prevent a Lonnit Crew situation from ever happening AGAIN!! What traps does he have now? What precautions does he take now that the media are keen on him? What will he do about his lost kill streak? Would he start counting again or would he continue from the number he left off at?

I'm aware that he returns in Switchback but until I play that game for myself my answer to anything he does in that game is NUH UH!!!

The Dark Pictures Anthology: The Devil in Me 🩶

[mahleb]

I recently got acquainted with the Saw universe)). I especially liked one of the antagonists, Mark Hoffman. It's funny, but in his story, he is very similar to Hector Munday (Grantham Du'Met) from the game The Dark Pictures: The Devil in Me (although, given the chronology, Hector is more likely to look like him). Both worked for the FBI/police, being professionals in their field. Both committed their first murders for good reasons (Mark - killed an unjustly released murderer, Hector - euthanasia of an evil mother painfully dying of cancer). And both had someone who initiated them, so to speak. Mark has Kramer, Hector has Manny Sherman. But, unlike Mark, Hector did it much longer and more successfully… Although, again unlike Mark, Hector really liked it, even though he missed his days working in the FBI. For Mark, most of the murders were under pressure from Kramer or out of fear of exposure. I would love a crossover with their collaboration))

I want.... I want Squid Game S2 inspired TDiM AU!1!1!1!1

What if Charlie is the only survivor, got hospitalize, reporting it to the police department but they don't believe that the killer is still alive. The body was shredded because of the propeller anyway. The case got closed. Yet Charlie is determined to know who is Du'met and why he does this sick game. Part of it because he is guilty to what happened to his crew, the other part is because he knows it was real and it should be uncovered and he should be the one who first publicize it.

He was a journalist, knows some bunch of people and see a pattern where some influencers, tv shows crew or writers who make any content about H.H. Holmes got missing. He contacted those people who are still alive and established partnership with them by giving important details. He knows Du'met will eventually invite them.

Years later, one of those people call him they got invitation and since one of their crew are sick, they invite Charlie. He sees that black limousine, the recorder and hears the order to put their phone into the box. But this time, he sneaks mini camera to his clothes.

Obviously Du'met knows and he watches Charlie goes, "I'VE PLAYED THIS GAME BEFORE!". Charlie ruins his plan to kill his victims on the first trap and he is intrigued by his determination to come back. So Du'met disguises himself as one of victim from former batch, makes alibi that he managed to hide from the killer who thought he was already dead. Inho's style~

But who is going to control the game? The new castle has sensor detecting devices to operate automatically since it's easier for Du'met to trap the victims. Then they got separated into two groups and Du'met kills the ones with him before he fakes his death.

Charlie and the other crew tries to escape but Du'met snipes the crew. On the other hand, he gives Lonnit a non-fatal gunshot on his right shoulder instead of killing him, after which he was rescued and brought back to castle. Tending him until Charlie is conscious, only to find he has been cuffed.

Expressiveness

So I'm tired and rambly I'm sure but a thought has crossed my mind as to why the new Psycho mask doesn't hit right beyond the initial shock of it and to me it comes down to the old saying "eyes are the window to the soul" and how much eyes give away and quite frankly josh is way too expressive for that type of mask and it would give him away

The original mask gives you nothing to figure out his identity, in fact that's the whole point as josh constructs the persona to be so thoroughly different that he even moves differently and only in brief moments were he messes up and breaks character does it hint at his identity

For an alternative that does the exposed eyes look right let's look at smg's other masked antagonist, Granthem Du'met famously makes little to no expressions, doesn't speak and is so cold that even with more of his face exposed he still gives nothing and on the rare occasion where he does the impact is far greater than were he a more expressive character like josh. I get that the psycho persona is different but that's the point, if the psycho has soulless eyes like Du'met then it won't be believable as josh and if the eyes are every bit as expressive as josh usually is than it won't be believable that no one looked into his eyes recognized him immediately

On top of the old design better obscuring his identity, the black eyes made him appear alien and inhuman in a way that's just not captured here

And here I've hastily drawn the lenses back on to show how it could have been and hopefully further make my sleep deprived point, like here the tone is still altered but the original essence of the concept isn't lost, at least I hope that's how it comes across
