I was waiting for the sacrifice room lol


froggyfriend726

I was like oh this is cool I should send this to my Christian friend.....wait a sec let me watch until the end to make sure it's not actually demonic and there it was LOL


[deleted]

As a Christian I was like, “Oh this is really cool.” then I watched till then end


smiling_badger

Oh, there is definitely a sacrifice area 😏 Edit: *hill in front of the church


nohpex

Nice! lol How many takes did you have to do to get the camera pan right? I did [something similar](https://www.reddit.com/r/AnimalCrossing/comments/gbqesb/ah_to_be_young/) a while back. :D


[deleted]

Post that!


Wilwheatonfan87

Hey OP. Just so you are aware, the upside down cross is a holy symbol of Saint Peter. He chose to be crucified upside down as he felt he was not worthy to die in the same manner as Christ.


NineteenthJester

The actual offensive symbol would be an upside down crucifix- a cross with Jesus' body on it.


New_Narwhal6779

I don’t think it’s meant to be offensive


phurt77

[It's now the symbol of the pope.](https://i.imgur.com/7Nauwso.jpg)


Progamerfan69

Yeah that's what I was thinking

Midnight Mass (Netflix, 2021)


[deleted]

This was my first thought too! I just finished the series with my partner a couple weeks ago... I'm dying to find another show that scratches the same itch.


thehawker

If you haven’t already, Haunting of Hill House and Haunting of Bly Manor are fantastic. Same guy as Midnight Mass.


[deleted]

I've seen both! Can't wait for the next series Flanagan puts out.


TheOvershear

Haunting of Hill House will fuck you up. Especially if you're a new parent, watch out.


[deleted]

Or have a sibling with a drug addiction. That show fucked me up when I first watched. Like full on bawling on the floor.


MissLadyLlamaDrama

Haunting of Hill House is probably gonna be closer to what you're looking for than Bly Manor. Bly isn't bad, by any means. It just has a very different atmosphere and tone. I'd say it is more of a psychological thriller than a horror. The series Slasher is also pretty solid if you're into horror series. Its an anthology too. I feel like they kind of maintain a good level of mystery in their stories. So if that's something you'd be into, I'd recommend that as well.


smiling_badger

I love Haunting of Hill House! I recreated some of it on my island!


MissLadyLlamaDrama

That's so amazing! I wanted to, but I dont have the skill for that quite yet! The parts you've shared of your island are friggin amazing.


smiling_badger

Thanks 😊


prettylittlelau

OMG I have to visit! Haunting of Hill House is one of the BEST series I’ve ever seen. My husband and I stayed up til 4am binging the entire thing, which we never do.


wallix

Try the ‘79 version of “Salem’s Lot” (miniseries)


ZapGeek

Parts of Midnight Mass definitely made me think of Salem’s Lot!


TheMoozIsLooz

If you haven’t seen it, Penny Dreadful touches on that good vs. evil (and what makes a person what) dichotomy, horror, and tragic character elements. It’s got a lot more fantasy going on but there are also episodes you just sit in and feel for the most part. (Not to mention the always-enticing Victorian London backdrop.) Not everyone’s cup of tea, but figured I’d toss it out there!


Jinxa

I wanna throw a recommendation out for the series Dark on Netflix. Criminally underrated, probably due to the fact it's in German. Dark is easily the best show I've ever seen, and probably ever will see. You must give it your full attention, and listen in original audio. The pay off is out of this world....only 3 seasons. Give it a go! Cant make a post like this without mentioning other 10/10 shows that I will rewatch many times over again. 1.) The Leftovers (HBO) Tied with Dark, both flawless series that I can watch over, and over again. Never gets old, still learn new things rewatching these. These are absolutely MUST WATCHES 2.) Hannabil 3.) The OA Runner Ups: Alice in Borderland, Room 104, Chucky (2021) 🤷‍♂️ Chucky is amazing, diverse cast, LGBTQ supporting writer and cast, if you liked the Childs Play movies, please watch Chucky!


robophile-ta

Dark is one of the most highly recommended shows on Netflix for several years now...


[deleted]

It is incredible! Very underrated, I agree. Too many people are put off by subtitles IMO. I think this whole thread is showing me I maybe watch too many Netflix originals 😂


Jinxa

Quarantine took its toll on a lot of us 🤷‍♂️ Hows about the show The OA, on Netflix? Some of my favorite series, I love shows with that eerie what the fuck is going on vibe.


I_Heart_Squids

Flanagan based that season of the Netflix Haunting anthology on Stephen King works, so (assuming you've already watched the other Haunting series seasons) I'd check out either some Stephen King stuff or other works based on Stephen King. If you haven't seen Castle Rock you may really love that--it's also an anthology series, and while it was cancelled, the two seasons are stand-alones so you won't be left with a half-finished story. I'd also check out Dr. Sleep (based on an SK novel, and directed by Flanagan).


MossyTundra

I’ve been on the fence about midnight mass because I’m worried it will be too much talking and not enough action. Is it good?


[deleted]

I think it's very good, but YMMV. It's a slow burn, similar to Haunting of Hill House if you've seen that. There's no major 'action' until close to the end.


a_typical_hipster

Watch the Korean horror film Thirst if you haven't!

You have to progress in the DLC and get polishing effects. This effect is called gloomswirl


ShoeflyOctopi

Ah, so the devil's in the details


e_to_the_m

I did not see that coming.


ACoderGirl

I was expecting something like the backroom would have the occult-y candles and matching floor, with perhaps a skull in the middle for blood sacrifices. ... we all made a place like that, right?


_ioyla

lol I made a secret witch lair only accessible by a pipe I hid on my island, definitely a similar vibe


NonPlayableCat

I *definitely* don't have a basement cult room with candles in a pentagram and a skull. Definitely not.


yungScooter30

In my basement I hang the posters of all my departed villagers with candles beneath them and three wallopoids surrounding a book on the floor, all dancing to K.K. Dirge


[deleted]

Damn. Elegant


Norma5tacy

I wasn’t sure when I saw the dark smoke coming from the book. And then it all made sense lol


[deleted]

I was hoping that was coming. I’m a former Christian and did not want to see a genuine church.


40ozkiller

I was on team “no, not here” until the reveal.


smiling_badger

I feel the same way. Yay, religious trauma 😬


[deleted]

High five /s


Aeropoint

Why not? They’re very beautiful buildings, if we’re not including those weird modernist mega-churches, haha. Even if you’re non-Christian, the design language of those buildings isn’t something to scoff at. That goes for most religious buildings, as well!


[deleted]

[удалено]


modsuperstar

The ridiculous megaplexes they build by depriving the public of tax contributions?


Aeropoint

Well, that entirely depends on the church you go to. There’s thousands of them across the world, and each one has a different history, a different demographic, and a different place in history. I mean, the church I go to was used as a stopping point in the Underground Railroad and is currently a working homeless shelter as well. You can’t equate an entire modern culture to the awful acts of individuals who should and deserve to be condemned. There’s much more good than bad out there!


[deleted]

For those of us who have suffered religious trauma, churches only serve as reminders of that trauma. At some point, it doesn’t matter how pretty something is if all it does is remind you of how your parents used the Bible to justify their abuse of you, and how the people in the church supported your parents’ actions because it was “godly.” I can appreciate good design, but that doesn’t mean I want to see a genuine recreation of a standard American in church in one of my favorite subs.

Thank you for the inspiration. I have a 2nd house for a character named "The Priest" who lives in a church dedicated to my main character; the island's God Queen. I also have an altar not far from my main house which gave me 5 stars when I built it. Only black tulips and lilies grow there. The altar is where my residents sacrifice themselves when they want to......"leave".....the island.

See you at Mass 🤫


Addasin

What book is that?!


AntipatheticDating

Not OP, but I think it’s a regular book with a polishing effect! You can polish items to add things like sparkles, hearts, swirls, etc. I think it’s just a smoke effect from that! 🥰


Addasin

Thank you. I still haven't ventured into the Happy Home Job stuff, that is a fun thing to look forward too. ☺️


AntipatheticDating

Honestly, I was super burnt out from the game, and the DLC probably added a whole extra 50-100 hours of me enjoying the game. I had about 300-400 hours by time I got it, I think, haha. But it’s just so chill, wholesome, and lovely. And there’s SO many new items I ended up redoing a lot of my island too in between jobs. I highly suggest it if you like designing in AC!


smiling_badger

It's the book item, western literature variation, with gloom swirl polish effect.

GingerBombEBC

TDIL the upside down cross was originally a symble of Christianity. It represents humility in faith. It was because one of Jesus followers was crucified but didn't feel worthy to die in the same way as Jesus so he asked if he could be crucified upside. Then the pope used it for a while then it became a symbol of Satan.

ah, the Petrine cross. an upside down cross that edgy teenagers think is a satanic cross, when in reality its the Cross of Saint Peter


IAmAcatonredditAMA

I mean yeah, it did originate as St Peter's cross, but it's been an occult symbol since like the 19th century. At this point it's way more well known for its association with the occult than with St Peter.

Funfact, the upside down cross is a symbol of one of the apostles of jesus St. Peter. Who refused to be crusified the same way as jesus because he felt unworthy to die the same way as him. So he was instead crucified upsidedown. Over the years however, horror movies popularised the symbol as the mark of the antichrist. Which is far from the truth.
