Camdrome is a creepypasta and online ARG created by Edmund McMillen and Team Meat, released at the 2013 PAX Prime event via a cinematic trailer. The video gained popularity due to the mysteries surrounding its plot, which generated a series of theories from social media users.[1][2]
History
During coverage of the PAX Prime event on March 22, 2013, a trailer for a project called Camdrome was shown on one of the event's TVs, along with other game trailers. The video showed homemade footage of a blood-stained monitor displaying footage from a fictional chat program called Camdrome. In this chat, a user encounters strangers, who are quickly interrupted by the intervention of a cloaked figure wearing a doll mask, who kills the victims unexpectedly, all of them ending with the site's logo, which raised questions among viewers. The video's plot generated much speculation about its origin and meaning.[3][4]
Reception
Social media and a website were created under the video's name. After the occurrence, it was discovered that the trailer's producers were Team Meat, including Edmund McMillen, who stated that Camdrome was a video game project he was working on to use the live-action footage.[5]
Camdrome appeared as an easter egg in the 2015 investigation game Fingered, where if the user entered the website's name in the search bar, the video's villain appeared as a haunting.[6]
