Alternate Thumbnails for Wanda/Vampire
🕑 Added 2024-11-19 06:00:04 +0000 UTCAh, Wanda. It's been incredibly satisfying watching her popularity as well as her powers grow in the MCU! This video was based on a scene in Wandavision when Wanda is getting her kids and Vision ready to go trick-or-treating. I really like the background I used for this one with the golden leaves fluttering across the screen and fire burning in the hearth. The goal of this video was for it to feel extremely Fall, and I thought it was a good appetizer for the Halloween videos to come!
Technically, this video takes place in the world Wanda made for herself in Westview where she magically conjured both her children and Vision himself. It wasn't something I really wanted to focus on like I did in my Agatha video, as I thought pointing it out too much would take away from the cozy atmosphere I was going for.
You'll notice the costume I used here is the more classic version of Wanda's outfit as seen in the comics versus the leathery, biker jacket-esque one she usually wears in the MCU. The intention behind it was that I wanted it to look reminiscent of how Wanda looked as she dressed up for Halloween in the show, and I also felt it was a lot friendlier for the purpose of this video!
I don't have one currently planned, but I wouldn't be surprised if I end up doing another Wanda video in the future! And on opposite end of the spectrum, we have The Vampire. Outside of The Enchantress video, this is probably the darkest video I did for Halloween. Here, she's finally caught up with The Conduit at their apartment, and she's insistent on them either letting her in, or The Conduit coming out.
I took the more classic Vampire route of her not being able to enter a residence unless she's invited, and much of the video is her trying to convince The Conduit to let her in as she becomes increasingly threatening over time. Of all the monsters they've faced, I like to think The Conduit recognizes The Vampire as one of the more dangerous foes. She made it personal by visiting their home.
The Vampire is one of those characters that I'll only put out a video for if I have a really solid idea in mind. She's a powerful character for a lot of reasons, and I want her appearances to have a purpose to them. And for this video, the purpose was temptation.
If ya'll have seen some of my earlier Vampire vids, back when she first met The Conduit at a club (with that awesome music), she hypnotized them, at least for a little bit. I touched upon this briefly in a Slayer (Goth Girl's sister) vid, but the Vampire can control her mark to a certain extent with her supernatural charm. Although The Conduit is more resistant to curses than most, The Vampire's pull really is that strong.
And that's what makes The Vampire so dangerous. She's gets you to do things seemingly of your own free will, while really she's got you like a puppet on a string. Scary!
Luckily, The Conduit was able to resist her pull this time around! But! This leads directly into the next goth Girl video, where the consequences of what happened in this one come into play.
And that's it for this week! Sorry I wrote a novel with this one!
Look forward to some little surprises I have planned in the next couple of weeks! See you then!

Glad you liked it!

There's something so captivating about a video where the ambience and volume say "cozy relax-y times" but the dialogue/tone suggest "you're in danger." Never in a hundred years would I have thought it'd work but it absolutely does and I'm here for it. Marvelous stuff!

Thanks! And as a little sneak peak, hope you enjoy the Spider-Gwen video coming out tomorrow!

The Vampire has become such an interesting character. As the series has progressed, she has become so menacing. The entry where she comes to the Conduit’s apartment is when she turned the corner story wise, she went from just another reoccurring fun encounter to a dark and dangerous element in the story. The vampire has become a well developed villain that I anticipate her next appearance and how it that will move the Conduit’s story forward. Again, I am impressed with the creativity and storytelling skills you put on display with each video. Thank you for the great & entertaining content. It is much appreciated!

I’m really hoping they announce a solo Wanda movie so we could finally get her and her kids together once again as one of the strongest Marvel families!

She’s a menace to Helsing’s everywhere!

Loved the cozy domesticity of the SW video. I think The Vampire trying to tempt people with well-established personal relationships (with The Nun and Goth Girl, respectively)makes her feel threatening on an almost existential level

So like the Scarlet Witch Wanda is a very bland costume but the character with the mental powers/hypnosis is so relevant and so unstoppable. I am glad that she turned her powers for good after understanding that others were manipulating her with the past wrongs that were done to her and her family
