Late at night, when the room is quiet and the screen begins to glow, video games can feel less like entertainment and more like places that are already awake. In this episode, host Torrid Embrox explores the unsettling world of haunted code and digital folklore, weaving together the stories of BEN Drowned, Herobrine, and MissingNo. Through slow-burn storytelling and reflective analysis, the episode examines how corrupted save files, unexplained figures, and broken data gave rise to some of the internet’s most enduring horror legends. As the line between player and system begins to blur, the episode asks a haunting question: when games remember more than they should, are they still just games—or something else entirely?
