Lu Ban in the video checked the situation under the bed, took out the dolls, turned off the lights, lay on his bed, put his hands at his sides, had a calm expression, and was slowly closing his eyes.
There has obviously been some editing here, after all, there is quite a long time between the two events.
Seeing this, Lu Ban immediately paused the video and looked around from this angle of the video, but found no hidden cameras.
"It seems that it was the system that did it..."
Lu Ban continued to click play.
The lights in the room were dark, but the video was relatively clear, though the quality was a little poor, with the characteristic flickering of surveillance cameras appearing from time to time.
In the quiet video, the sound of heartbeats can be heard from the phone.
thump--
thump--
thump--
The heartbeat was very real, and inexplicably synchronized with Lu Ban's current heartbeat, sounding as if it was coming from his own chest.
As his heartbeat gradually slowed down, Lu Ban's expression softened and he seemed to relax a lot.
At this moment, the closet door beside Lu Ban's bed was suddenly pushed open slowly by some force, and an unnatural creaking sound was heard amid the soothing heartbeat.
But Lu Ban couldn't see what appeared in the closet.
It seemed as if the clothes in the closet moved, as if the quilt was held down by something, and as if his clothes were brushed by something.
These are all unclear, vague and unsettling.
Suddenly, a scratching sound exploded from the phone.
Even though Lu Ban had experienced it himself, the sudden scratching sound still startled him and he almost threw his phone away.
Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle——
The scratching sound was more real than the heartbeat, as if some unknown creature in the phone was trying to tear the screen and rush out. Even the phone case that Lu Ban's palm touched was vibrating at a high frequency.
Lu Ban in the video seemed to be affected as well. He had a serious expression and wanted to stand up.
"here it is……"
Lu Ban thought about the situation at that time and took a deep breath.
That was the moment when he was conscious but his body could not move!
Now, he could clearly see that his body was slightly bruised, and there were several dark handprints on his ankles, wrists, neck and other exposed parts of his body!!!
It was as if several invisible creatures were lying on top of him, clamping his hands and feet.
Seeing this scene in the video, Lu Ban hurriedly glanced at his wrist. Although there was no bruise, it was painful at the moment. He didn't know if it was a psychological effect.
"Almost..."
Lu Ban estimated that it was time for him to wake up. He watched carefully and was on guard to prevent the situation where a human face suddenly appeared and scared people.
As I recall, what Lu Ban should have done next was to get up and take a crowbar to look under the bed.
“Are you up…?”
Lu Ban found that he had gotten up, but his movements were very stiff, like a zombie that had been dead for a long time, with stiff joints.
In the picture, Lu Ban was holding a crowbar and slowly walked to the bedside.
At this time, the video switched to a shot from behind Lu Ban. The angle looked like the photographer was standing in the closet and taking a sneak shot.
Lu Ban's head slowly moved downwards, and the picture moved along with it.
At the same time, the heartbeat in the video was still repeating, and it became a little faster at this moment.
The camera showed the darkness under the bed, the accumulated dust, and the doll that was staring at Lu Ban!
Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle——
The heartbeat that had been playing as background music suddenly stopped, and was replaced by a more intense scratching sound exploding from the phone. Lu Ban felt as if the phone was vibrating. He subconsciously threw it away, and the phone fell on the table. The beeping of the speaker made the entire phone tremble wildly, making a buzzing sound on the table.
Lu Ban saw from the side that the scratching sound reached its peak and the entire video came to an end.
After a brief black screen where only the projection of his own face could be seen, the screen lit up again and Lu Ban woke up from his sleep, as if everything just now was just a nightmare and the reality was still safe.
The camera followed Lu Ban as he looked around and then looked under the bed.
Just those boring garlics and crosses, nothing else.
Lu Ban in the video seemed to be relieved. The heartbeat that had been lingering in his ears disappeared, and Lu Ban's emotions outside the screen gradually stabilized.
At this moment, the camera zooms out and gradually returns to the original perspective.
In this slowly zoomed-in shot, Lu Ban saw that the funny and hideous Lanlanlu puppet was lying on his shoulder, its made-up eyes staring at the camera, its grinning mouth seeming to be laughing wildly.
Click——
The picture stopped abruptly.
Lu Ban already broke out in a cold sweat.
He vaguely felt something pressing on his shoulder. He didn't turn around directly, but just looked at it with the reflection of the computer screen.
Nothing at all.
“…I almost feel like I’m losing my mind again.”
Lu Ban finally felt relieved.
This video, perhaps because it was his own personal experience, or perhaps because it was well edited and rendered, made him feel a little frightened and extremely terrifying.
"Is this one of the rewards for me for completing the game?"
Lu Ban thought that these short videos about the supernatural have always been very attractive. After all, the public has a curiosity-seeking mentality, and when they see this kind of short video, they will unconsciously click on it to seek excitement.
Lu Ban is not sure whether this video can reach five million views, but the content of the video itself is fine. If he is lucky enough to get some popularity, he might just take off.
It’s just that the length of this video is a bit long. Including the preliminary preparation, it is almost forty minutes.
In the field of short videos, the optimal length is within two minutes, and the most essential and attractive gimmicks need to be released in the first fifteen seconds.
After all, short video users have low patience and are looking for strong stimulation in a short, fast way. A 40-minute video is too long.
Therefore, Lu Ban decided to upload this video on the old video website.
However, he also did some editing and color adjustment, deleted lengthy parts, and focused on the thrilling and weird scenes. He also turned up the volume for a while and removed the gameplay details of the mini-game to prevent others from imitating it, shortening the video to about six minutes.
The account name he registered on the Jiuri Video Network is [一动动动]. He has uploaded several videos of different types before, among which the video clips have the lowest number of views, which is a living example of the dead end of being a MAD.
The video with the most hits just exceeded 10,000, and it was a casual shot of the cat downstairs.
Lu Ban did a simple search for supernatural videos on the old video network and found that there were quite a few of them, but most of them were old-fashioned things from the last century. After all, after entering the new century, photographic equipment had become more advanced and ghosts were too scared to come out.
Lu Ban entered the name of the video [Don’t open it at night!!!], then selected the daily category in the life section. The website automatically captured the content as the cover, and clicked upload.
When the review process began, Lu Ban stretched and prepared to take a nap before thinking about how to take advantage of the popularity.
Lying down on the bed, Lu Ban closed his eyes. As he was about to fall asleep, some inspiration suddenly flashed through his mind.
Being unable to move, seeing the Blue Road puppet under the bed, and hearing the mind-destroying scratching sounds, these should all be the contents of my dream.
So, how was this video shot?
