HELP ME.scr

Origin


HELP ME.scr is a strange animation made with the Scratch application.
The creator of this animation is not known, as many people have re-uploaded it since it was banned.
For a time, the only known place to get this animation was on the Scratch website. It was available here, but that link is now dead. You can now find it on this website, which seems to have been made by its creator. Few people ever saw it before its ban, and I was one of those people.
The animation starts out with the signature "scratch" cat, with black bleeding eyes and a creepy black grin, wielding a knife, killing another cat as strange music plays. After a certain amount of time, a ghost will flicker on the screen. This is Uboa from Yume Nikki.
That's not the creepiest part, though. Some rumors came up that said that several people who watched this animation became obsessed, and were found dead in their beds, with their computers turned on and the desktop changed to a large picture of Uboa.
Not much more information is known, but I will try to find any information possible. As I said, you can watch it here.

UPDATE


- This guy in town called Kaidon Rogers was rushed to the Adalade hospital for attempted suicide. He had been trying to slit his wrist until his parents found him, before he had finished. He had apparently been watching this animation earlier. He passed away just as he arrived at the hospital.
