Why This Gas Station Is So Terrifying

Video summary

Press to jump

0:04The gas-station assignment begins: survive night shifts while identifying doppelganger customers.
5:14An alarm after the first shift sends bizlychannel scrambling to barricade the bathroom.
12:00The store computer broadcasts a warning about a fictional killer entity called The Dentist.
13:17Exploding rats invade the store and add another task to the shift.
16:11Gas-pumping duties begin outside, where customers' cars also need inspection.
19:00A spider-like entity attacks the back room; the escape sequence starts here.

Checking customers for doppelgangers sounds like enough work for one employee. Shift at Midnight also expects bizlychannel to mop up, clear exploding rats and eventually head outside to inspect customers' cars. The monsters are only part of the staffing problem.

"Why This Gas Station Is So Terrifying" was the channel's only upload this week, and it is doing plenty of work itself. The gameplay narrative has passed 1.3 million views, with bizlychannel composited into the game's scenes rather than simply narrating from the sidelines. It includes a sponsored banking segment.

The expanding job description gives the horror its wonderfully mundane counterpoint. By the fourth night, pumping gas means checking vehicles for anomalies as well as serving the people inside them. Viewers are picking up on that overload: several connect the cleaning and closing duties to retail work, while others single out Nate's panic and the contrast between solo horror and multiplayer comedy. Nate is credited as @GrizzlyPlaysYT.

Across the channel, daily views are running at nearly twice their usual level. Subscribers grew over the week too, though today's count is unchanged. Among the nearby variety-gaming channels, bizlychannel had the largest weekly views gain; ImCade and AstralSpiff also drew substantial weekly audiences, while chuggaaconroy's daily viewing is below its usual level.

The gas station now supplies the most daily views of any bizlychannel upload. Behind it, "GTA 4's Serial Killer Is Actually Terrifying" and the much older "Cyberpunk's Serial Killer is Actually Terrifying" continue drawing viewers: the unsettling corners of open-world games haven't stopped contributing just because he has taken a new job.

Nothing scarier than having a friend showing you the ropes and they suddenly start screaming "RUN RUN I'VE NEVER SEEN THAT THING BEFORE!"

Nate sobbing loudly while you mop everything up and close the store just gave everyone who's ever worked retail flashbacks I swear.

I love how this game is either a terrifying single player horror game, or a goofy multiplayer horror comedy.

This game really captures how much you are expected to do as a solo night shift worker

The way youre getting better at putting yourself into like ANY game is insane
Also covering actual horror games instead of having horror in normal games is a pretty cool new concept
@silly_doodSee it on YouTube
the pivot from strictly theories to covering games in general is such a good decision . not to mention the way you do it is so entertaining since you put yourself inside them 👏

People are somehow managing to create videos that are commentary, reaction, gameplay, essay, drama, entertainment, and art piece all in one. I'm continually impressed by channels such as this one in particular. So thank you, Bizly!
