Every blink brings Rako's stone angel one step closer
A voice-stealing creature called the Hush comes down from the roof and turns a creeping-statue story on its head.
Why this story? One of the most watched videos since yesterday, with 7,954,149 views.
The Stone Angel MOVED Closer Every MORNING 😱
"In this world, statues only move when nobody is looking at them," the narrator of Rako's latest animated horror Short explains. A stone angel leaves the cemetery anyway. Dad chains it to a lamppost, the chain snaps overnight, and by morning it is standing in the yard.
The child keeps watch from the bedroom window, and every blink lets the statue gain a step. By dawn the angel is outside the glass, but it is not staring at the child. It is looking up at the roof, where a long-fingered creature with a white, mask-like face is climbing down. The narrator calls it the Hush, "the thing that steals children's voices."
The 70-second story drew nearly eight million views since yesterday and has already passed the channel's snowman and scarecrow rescues. Its comments arrived more than seven times faster than on a usual Rako Short. Many viewers recognize Doctor Who's Weeping Angels, while others single out the Hush's design.
