The Beast Is Dead

The Beast Is Dead is a video uploaded to the treatsforbeasts channel on February 14th, 2020.



Plot
The video begins with a man watching an advertisement for a product known as the "Stupid Spike" before switching to a television program called Birdies; a program involving a masked woman abusing and feeding worms to a group of men pretending to be baby birds.

The father is looking forward to watching the program but is quickly interrupted by his son who asks to be read a bedtime story before presenting a copy of Herman Melville's "Moby Dick". The father seems to conflate the book's title with the story being about penises and refuses to read it, but eventually relents.

The video then cuts to the father reading a particular page pointed out by the son as his favourite, which contains particularly ambiguous language and unintentional double entendre. The father stops reading and dismisses the book as "trash" before the son explains the underlying meaning of the book. He then talks at great length about human emotion, mankind's potential and the spread of knowledge. The father claims it to all be "horseshit" and that the boy is not his son, before the son brings up the subject of the fathers wife leaving due to his obsession with Birdies. The father uses the Stupid Spike on his son, which causes him to become disoriented and seemingly dumb.

The father goes to leave as the son complains that "Everything's fuzzy" to which his father seems not to care. He sits back down to watch Birdies only to discover the episode has concluded and was also the final episode, to which he screams furiously.

On the television an ident for Hey Everybody Productions! is shown containing a logo depicting a balloon carrying clown with a dessicated head, missing eyes and nose in a field as children cry and run away.

The next television program called Grandma Hespar begins to play; involving a monstrous grandmother with skeletal features, dark grey skin, glowing yellow eyes and permanently beared teeth. The show begins with who appears to be her masked granddaughter known as Stacy and her boyfriend joining Grandma Hespar who is sat at the kitchen table. Stacy leaves to get ready to go out and the two are left alone together.

Grandma Hespar beckons the man closer who seems nervous and unwilling to do so, although he eventually inches closer. The man appears shocked at something unseen before Grandma Hespar dances and the man thrashes his head in all directions while the scene is bathed in bright red, yellow and blue colours.

Stacy returns to find her boyfriend dead and Grandma Hespar in the process of consuming her boyfriend using her vagina. Stacy asks why she has to do this to all her boyfriends and then calls her a "weirdo, and a goof" causing Grandma Hespar to cry loudly.

Stacy's mother asks from another room if she made Grandma Hespar cry, which Stacy denies. Something off camera appears to shock Stacy before Grandma Hespar turns to face it as well. Stacy runs to get her mother, while Grandma Hespar continues staring. The scene fades to white as a voice whispers "I can see you"; implying that what they both noticed was the viewer.

The white screen fades back to an extended ident for SCARYASSBIOMECHANICALSEACREATUREMUSIC INC., involving a sentient submarine being raised from the water and asking a nearby worker to give it meat from his family in order to subsist. The man denies the request, then shoots the submarine which causes it to bleed.

A music video for the song "I Love the Sound of Screaming Babies" by Roii plays.
