In other words: The video is about ''Iron Lung'', as well as the fear that ''Pastra'' is being watched, rather than merely the fear of being watched as it's utilized in the game.]]

!!Tropes:
* AbandonedMascot: [[spoiler:Lankmann reveals in his game to be the prior face of Pastra back when he intended to center his channel around an ARG, but instead chose a different path and appearance with the success of his chosen videos.]]
* AuthorAppeal: Pastra is [[NightmareFetishist a big fan of works in the horror genre]], as evident by the works he's covered on his channel. And it's not limited to just discussing it on his channel; he's posted some Analog Horror videos of his own, and some of his usual discussion videos veer into horror with Lankmann performing a HostileShowTakeover, among other things...
* AuthorAvatar: Pastra depicts himself as Clyde, a vaguely-humanoid monster that looks like [[ThingsThatGoBumpInTheNight something that hides in children's closets]], topped off by them wearing an orange hoodie.
* {{Bookends}}: For the introduction of the ''Bendy and the Ink Machine'' video, it starts with live footage of Pastra IRL, rather than his avatar Clyde. By the end of the video, Lankmann interrupts Pastra's outro to declare that they should do something truly special: a face reveal. Pastra resistance to the idea gets interrupted by Lankmann implicitly turning time back to the beginning of the video with Pastra saying "here goes nothing, I guess".]]
* CharacterizationMarchesOn: Lankmann, previously a resentful AbandonedMascot [[spoiler:who would imprison Pastra and run a MortonsFork game with their freedom on the line]], would in later videos effectively become more of a roommate to Pastra who's just as obsessed (if not moreso) as their creator in regards to horror media.
* DoubleMeaningTitle: Pastra's video "Iron Lung and the Fear of Being Watched". [[spoiler:It's not just referring to ''Iron Lung'' and its theme, it's referring to Pastra's situation in the rest of the video.]]
* EnemyWithout: Lankmann, [[spoiler:as they're [[AbandonedMascot the prior mascot/avatar of Pastra]] who became their own entity after Pastra effectively replaced them with Clyde after finding an audience with his discussion videos rather than the planned ARG with him as the face; they're implicitly formed from Pastra's self-doubt over his choice, calling themselves "the culmination of all that regret and lost potential".]]
* FormulaBreakingEpisode: The channel primarily covers works of the Horror genre, or at least works that feature horror elements, which makes the ''Sonic CD'' video a notable departure. [[spoiler:The focus on horror seems to even be enforced by Lankmann, who by the end of the video calls out Pastra for the departure.]]
* HostileShowTakeover:
** Lankmann pulls this on Pastra's channel [[spoiler:out of resentment for the purpose of his creation [[AbandonedMascot being abandoned in favor of Clyde]], along with his ARG being neglected in favor of videos that put Pastra in the spotlight.]]
** In a more comedic tone, every other SpecialGuest ends up breaking into Pastra's home to take over his channel for a segment in a few videos. By the time [=DMuted=]'s segment in the ''Security Breach: RUIN'' video was done and over, Pastra's already fed up with the repeated takeovers.
--->'''Pastra:''' Okay, okay, enough of that! I am sick and tired of everyone breaking into my house and thinking they can just take over my channel for the day. It was ''terrifying'' when Lankman did it, it was ''infuriating'' when Phil did it, and this is just plain confusing!
** PlayedForHorror in the ''Iron Lung'' video, where after some instances of {{Foreshadowing}}, [[spoiler:the footage shifts to a series Live-Action footage of Pastra dealing with a stalker, who implicitly gets murdered by them after he refuses to abide by their orders.]]
* NotMakingThisUpDisclaimer: Pastra prefaces his discussion of ''Critters: A New Binge'' that he won't be saying anything exaggerated or hyperbolic about the contents of the show, expressing this trope at the BigBad being the Critter President, the two character (Christopher and his mom) having only one defining character trait that is important to the plot, and TheReveal of [[spoiler:Christopher actually inheriting Critter DNA due to his mom having a one night stand with the Critter President.]]
-->'''Pastra:''' The entire plot of this show happens, all because [[spoiler:his mother had sex with the ''fucking Critter President'', and gave birth to his child!]] I told you that these one-note character traits would somehow be relevant to the story of this show--I fucking told you!
* OminousVisualGlitch: Lankman's appearance is accompanied by the video suddenly halting with a glitchy distortion.
* SoundEffectBleep: Phisnom's filthy language in the ''Hello Neighbor'' video gets subject to these type of edits, censoring certain words with the Neighbor's gasps and grunts; his ClusterFBomb in particular using a variety of sound effects from the game.
* SpecialGuest:
** Phil of Phisnom suddenly busts into Pastra's house during their ''Hello Neighbor'' video to (falsely) call out Pastra for reviewing the game with their usual positive attitude -- and after that misunderstanding, proceeds to go on an extended scathing rant about the gameplay of the game until they're forced to leave.
** [=DMuted=], after disguising as Pastra for who knows how long in the ''RUIN'' video, reveals themselves to discuss the antagonist of the DLC, [[spoiler:The Mimic]], and their origin.
* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodCharacter: [[invoked]] {{Discussed|Trope}} with [[Characters/BatmanTheScarecrow The Scarecrow]]. Pastra finds that most works that use the character only do so for the sake of using their [[SupernaturalFearInducer fear toxin]], rather than explore the character themselves -- ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheAnimatedSeries'', a show that [[CharacterizationMarchesOn redefined a bunch of its characters]], portrayed Scarecrow in a manner that primarily focuses on his fear toxin, with his established backstory and relevance to the conflict being otherwise secondary.
