~ Antisepticeye when meeting Chase. |
Antisepticeye, or Anti for short, is one of the main antagonists of the famous Irish YouTube channel Jacksepticeye.
He was portrayed by Seán William McLoughlin.
Background[]
Antisepticeye is a darker and evil version of Jacksepticeye. The general idea is that he is a demon, or virus, that is fighting for control over Jack's body. Antisepticeye's personality is usually demented and with a strong desire to harm others. It is thought that the fan-made Darkiplier had fueled the idea of Antisepticeye.
Since the beginning of October 2016, there have been brief clips within Jack's videos that resemble Antisepticeye. They began in his playthrough of Five Nights At Freddy's Sister Location. In the description of these videos, there are ominous messages and sometimes links using zalgo font that add to the persona.
As well, Jack's Twitter and Tumblr accounts have featured the same font and personality, suggesting Antisepticeye is "taking over". Even in videos where Antisepticeye is not present, the white board on the door will occasionally contain vague messages that relate to him. When fans ask about or point out Antisepticeye, Jack responds as if not knowing who they are talking about.
Additionally, Jack's Twitter account has changed from Jacksepticeye to A̸͢n҉t͞isepticeye.
Biography[]
In Facerig episode three, Jack uses a flower face named Flowey from Undertale; while using it he says "down here, it's kill or be killed.". After this, Antisepticeye's laugh is heard. However, Jack might just be goofing around.
2016[]
On Halloween (October 31, 2016), Jack made this video, officially confirming Antisepticeye's arrival. In this video, Jack is seemingly recording an innocent vlog of him carving a pumpkin (similar to the previous year 2015). The white board on the door has the words "Happy Halloween!" written on it. As the video continues, an eerie laugh is heard and the camera becomes distorted. Jack briefly steps away from the camera to investigate. He returns to the camera, acting rather strangely, and continues carving the pumpkin.
Then, the sound of someone stomping can be heard, and Jack once again leaves to look for the source of the sound. At random intervals, the camera turns distorted just as before, but Jack remains oblivious. At one point in the video Jack's nose starts to bleed and he briefly steps away from the camera to get some tissue. When he comes back he pretends it never happened. Towards the end of the video, Jack stares blankly at the camera and begins to slit his throat with the knife in his hand, causing him to bleed to death and fall onto his pumpkin.
After many seconds of silence, Anti possesses Jack and jumpscares the viewers. The words on the whiteboard are now scribbled out. Anti jeers at the viewers, blaming them for Jack's death. He says the viewers could've stopped him from doing it, but they just watched. He declares that Jack is "gone forever" and asks the viewers to say their goodbyes. Finally, the video cuts to black and ends.
2017[]
3 months later in January 2017, the all too familiar static and sounds can be heard in Jack's videos.
6 months later in July 28, 2017, Markiplier made a video on his channel titled "DARKIPLIER vs ANTISEPTICEYE". During the video, the two were arguing about who should be "king" of their "realm" (dubbed "YouTube Hell" in the comments). The two were about to fight, but they were constantly disrupted by other YouTubers dark sides (ABlazingPhil (AmazingPhil), DannyDarko (DanTDM), Sharkyoho (Schmoyoho; second and songify channel of the Gregory Brothers), etc). Then Chica, Dark's dog, appears and sucks the other dark sides into a void. She becomes angered, saying that Dark didn't feed her. As Dark panics, Anti stares at the screen (actually staring at Chica), laughing. Anti played a more insane role than a serious, evil one. BioInc3
6 days later on August 3, 2017, Anti appears in Bio Inc. Redemption. At the start of the video, Jack explains that the developers made an Easter egg of him in the game. Then he starts feeling "sick", so rushes off camera. Dr. Schneeplestein replaces him and vows to save Jack in game. Halfway through, Dr Schneeplestein himself complains of discomfort and makes references about death and Anti (such as 'antidepressants'). Anti glitches into the face cam and game more frequently, taking over Dr. Schneeplestein.
When in-game Jack finally dies, Anti appears. He berates the viewers by saying he's tired of repeating the same cycle (quote: "How many times must I do this? Again and Again! OVER and OVER! FUCKING CIRCLES!") meaning he is tired of killing Jack just so Anti can appear to please the audience. He also mocks the viewers when they call him "glitch bitch" (a nickname fans gave him online). He asks a few questions, such as "who do you think you've been watching all this time?" responding with "my puppets". He states that this is his world and this isn't the end of him. The video cuts to black as he giggles and says "see you soon".
83 days later on October 25, 2017, sounds and effects related to Antisepticeye appears in Opening Tour Gifts. When he receives a knitted Anti doll, Jack says "little anti. Look at him glitching out all over the place."(8:24). A sound of giggling can be heard and the screen glitches. This happens a second time when Jack presents a painting of Anti someone made for him, with the screen glitching. (19:11)
2 days later on October 27, 2017, while Jack and Robin play Overwatch and Robin fall to his death after jumping himself to it, Jack made a little giggle laugh, but it was unsure if it was Anti who was laughing.
On Jack's Twitter you can also see tiny glitches if you look closer.
4 days later on October 31, 2017, Jack makes a pumpkin carving video for the third time. He starts the video off normally, but then suddenly changes to black and white 1930s silent movie style, complete with appropriate attire. He carves the pumpkin with a face drawn on it similar to his own face. Towards the 5:25 mark, he accidentally cuts himself. While treating himself, Anti starts glitching into the scene, taking over Jack's new persona. He makes the slitting throat action and leans towards the camera, while title cards show up on screen saying 'Puppet' and 'SMILE'. The video ends with Jack performing the usual outro.
Since 10pm GMT on December 15, 2017 until 6pm GMT on December 16, 2017, Jack's live stream for 'Save the Children' was hijacked by Antisepticeye. After leaving CCTV footage overnight, with creepy sounds and glitches, when Jack and co return for the second stream, the alphabet on the wall spells out 'ANTI'. After welcoming the audience back to the stream, Jack hurries to get changed; while doing so, a reiteration of Anti from the Bio Inc. video appears in the window, only for Jack to return to describe the unusual tension in the air.
While opening gifts to donate to the charity, Ethan receives a decapitated teddy bear, with PJ saying the cut looks like its done by a knife. When a donor leaves a message, saying they "love Jack, Robin and Anti", Jack questions Robin asking: "Who is Anti?" The hashtag #Overnightwatch was used and multiple videos have been recorded of Anti's return. Fans (over 10,000-4,000 of them) stayed for over 24 hours to see Anti's arrival, some appearances took hours to see. Many people have realized how videos, pictures, and quotes from the stream come from some of his previous sightings.
2018[]
On March 9th, 2018, in the video titled 'BABY GOT BACK | Baby Hands VR (HTC Vive Virtual Reality Wireless)' at exactly 3:44, Antisepticeye is heard faintly in the background saying "Where is he?" The hint is very subtle and is difficult to notice without audio enhancement.
On May 5th, 2018, in the video titled 'WATCH THIS WITH THE LIGHTS OFF' at the end of the episode, Jack is disrupted by creaking noises and his door opens. His surprised face briefly appears for a second on the in-game 'Futuro 128k +2' computer monitor as from Anti's point of view at the door.
On May 6th, 2018, in the video titled 'Barry Has A Secret' at the end of the episode, the screen fades away to someone (possibly Jack) finding a small toy hand in a cabinet. Jack turns around and Anti, looking like Jack himself, says, "You weren't supposed to find that," and then he grabs Jack as the video fades into the outro.
In another May 6th, 2018 video titled 'THEY ARE LISTENING | Stories Untold - Chapter 2' at the end of the episode while doing his outro, the screen begins flashing like one of the alien entities trying to access his mind similar to what occurred to his character while he was playing in-game. A brief sound of the klaxon used during the alien escape is heard. Suddenly, after hearing the klaxon, an alien entity appears over the screen, then the next moment Anti glitches in during the light flashes. The video then cuts to an image of all the alien entities hovering together in a group. The video's outro is left unfinished.
On May 7th, 2018, in the video 'THEY'RE HERE! | Stories Untold - Chapter 3' as the video comes to a close, muffled voices can be heard as Jack finishes speaking. The video suddenly goes to black and a voice can be heard saying "Jack! This is Chase. You need to wake up." The Morse code transmitting on the radio spells out "W.H.E.R.E.A.M.I."
On May 8th, 2018, in the video titled 'IT WAS ALL CONNECTED! | Stories Untold - Chapter 4' the video suddenly goes to black after Jack finishes the game and it goes to Jack, asleep, yet tossing and turning. He wakes up suddenly, looks at the camera and says, "I remember what he did to me."
On May 9th, 2018, in the video titled 'Try To Fall Asleep!' Jack didn't do his intro, which caused many fans to speculate that it was not Jack making the video. More fans began to point out how he wasn't doing his outro and that he was playing a lot of horror games.
A video titled 'Dark Silence,' now renamed to 'What do you want from me?' was posted on May 14th, 2018. After the game ends with the main character crying out, there is a brief whisper that says "Don't run Jack." Chase is then shown in darkness, frantically flicking on a lighter. He wanders around and goes upstairs. In the doorway, bathed in red light, he finds Antisepticeye with his back towards him. Chase shouts out, "Who's there? Where are they?! What do you want from me?!" before Anti turns around, grinning, and walks towards him.
On May 16th, 2018, at the start of 'EXPLORING AN ABANDONED HOSPITAL | Exiles' Jack glitches on screen, seemingly out of breath and confused. Near the end, as Jack was doing his outro, he is suddenly cut off and stares straight at the camera, bloody tears streaming from his eyes. Whispers filter in saying "It's all your fault." Distorted music replaces the usual upbeat techno music during the outro, with the animation playing in reverse and is red instead of green.
On August 3rd, 2018, Jack released an Akinator video titled 'HOW DID HE GUESS THAT!?' During the questions to guess Jameson Jackson from Akinator, the camera on question 11 "Has your character killed people?" glitches out after Jack mentions that he has dug himself in a hole and the video jumps to the next question. On question 28 Jack refused to answer "Is your character a puppet?" After the outro song ended, in place of the after outro gags he does, distorted frames of Jack appearing to be screaming is shown along with some distorted audio, which turned out to be Antisepticeye’s laugh slowed down. The waveform of this particular segment spelled out “SOON”.
On August 5th, 2018, at the end of 'WHAT AM I EVEN PLAYING?! | Eggs For Bart' after the outro song, a reversed voice is heard, saying "I will return when you least suspect it." The waveform of the reversed audio is code. When the code is deciphered, it is translated to say “DEATH”.
On September 25th, 2018, in the first ten minutes of 'WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED? | Transference' the video's title was changed repeatedly, each with the Zalgo font, including a title that translated into "HELP" when deciphered. The title reportedly changed four times before changing to the current title. Four Anti glitches were seen throughout the episode.
On October 14th, 2018, four glitches could be seen along with creepy talking in '3 SCARY GAMES, 1 VIDEO #7'. Although there was no physical appearance, one particular glitch showed Jack where half of his body was green for a split second in the camera and his voice became distorted while saying "Time to take off the mask".
On October 20th, 2018, two glitches could be seen in ‘THIS GAME SCARED THE **** OUT OF ME’. On December 1st, 2018, in the video 'TIME IS BROKEN | Umfend' the camera can be seen glitching twice. The second time is accompanied by Jack saying ”Do you remember?”
On December 7th, 2018, the usual outro animation became glitched at the end of the video 'WAIT FOR THE ENDING! | Sally Face - Chapter 4 - Part 1(Full Game)'.
On December 16th, 2018, the video 'QUIT THE GAME TO WIN', Jack says the watcher must exit the video to end the video, and begins staring into the camera. The closed captions claim that from 27:28, Anti is present in Jack's speaking. At certain times after this, his eye twitches, and these twitches form morse code. Together, the code spells ANTIWINS.
2019[]
On January 1st, 2019, in the video 'SILENT FRIGHT | Bloodthirsty Santa' the iconic intro was replaced with a glitched webcam, although no actual appearances of Anti were in the video. As well as this instance, the after outro clip that is at the very end of the video was also glitched.
On May 21st, 2019, at the end of part one of Observation, whilst Jack is expressing his fascination towards the sci-fi genre, static starts sounding and Jack vanishes, leaving his chair spinning. A shot of the space station interior is shown with static sounding. On May 22nd, 2019, Jack played an early version of 'Five Nights at Freddy's VR: Help Wanted'. During the intro, he ducks out of view to joke that the animatronics can't see him, but as he is off-screen, the whiteboard in the back reads "101610", which could be a reference to Anti's first appearance (October 10th, 2016). The security cameras in-game glitch while his facecam also glitches without audio.
On May 23rd, 2019, the second part of Observation ends with Jack's facecam sliding out of view while Emma and Jim talk. Jack then shouts "It's all coming together!" before suddenly glitching back on screen saying, "Time is all broken." A shot of Emma's face is shown with familiar static sounds followed by SAM saying "I am here."
On May 24th, 2019, part two of 'Five Nights at Freddy's VR: Help Wanted' ends with Jack standing still with black eyes, groaning whilst static is flickering over.
On May 24th, 2019 the fourth episode of 'Observation' ends with Jack glitching out with the words "Bring Him" appearing on screen before the introduction from the first episode is repeated.
On June 3rd, 2019, in the episode "How High Will My Heart Rate Go Playing Five Nights At Freddy's VR (FNAF VR)" after Jack exclaims that his heart is still beating and that he is still alive, the screen fades to black with his heart rate monitor reading '0', at which point the screen glitches for a split second.
In 'I Quit Youtube For This', there were a few sightings: in the middle of the game 'A Game Literally About Taxes', Jack randomly looked down at the floor before looking up slowly and saying ‘Do you ever feel like there's something more?’ then eerily smiles. Jack soon states that he is being watched as one of the cardboard cut-outs behind him glitches slightly. As he continues further in the same game, his facecam becomes grey edged with red.
On October 13th, 2019, a video called "CHASE" premiered on the channel, revolving around Chase Brody. In the shot where Chase searches for a picture in his glove compartment, Anti can be spotted staring at the viewer from the backseat. Theories circulated based on whether or not this was actually Anti, but the majority agreed that it was him. This appearance provides further evidence that Anti is a source of Chase's depression and problems.
On October 31st, 2019, a video called "Jameson Jackson's Jolly Jaunts", revolving around Jameson Jackson, was released on Jack's channel. Jameson appears to do an innocent silent hand puppet show. Not long soon after, Anti begins to possess him. Jameson (controlled by Anti) appears to be screaming while trying to tear apart the strings, mimicking Jack slitting his throat from "S̺͍͉͔͉̞̪Ḁ̸̰̮͝Y̶̪ ̳͇̭͍̥̭͉ͅG̕҉̡̦̲O̤̫͖͎̗͜͞ͅÒ̴̬̠̺̪̥͉̳͉̥͝D̨̺̦̯͙͙͔̯͚͠B̸̬̻̝͉͍̻̀͝Y҉̫̝̖̹̝̠͠E̲̩͟͝ͅ". The video ends with Jameson eerily staring at the viewer, before cutting to black.
On November 28th, 2019, a video called "You Said We Could Be Friends... | 3 Scary Games", was uploaded to Jack's channel. At the end of the last game "No Players Online", Jack can be seen trying to get the servers back up after delivering the last flag. As he tries to get the servers back up, a slight screen flicker can be spotted at the 25:33 mark, with the screen going black for a second. When it comes back up, one of Jack's lights seems to be off. He gets more frustrated as he goes on, going from slight frustration, to pleading, to anger in the span of less than a minute. At the end, Jack is seen breathing into the microphone in huge irritation, before saying "That's it. That's it, I'm coming over." He then stares at the camera for a few seconds, before lunging at it. His outro does not play, simply replaced with a black screen.
2020[]
On January 2nd, 2020, a video called "Having A Heart Attack | 3 Scary Games", was uploaded to Jack's channel. Three glitches were spotted throughout the video, as well as two cryptic messages that popped up at the end. The messages read "Not long now" and "He’s coming". The window that the messages appeared on is titled "A", likely referring to Anti.
On January 16th, 2020, a video called "These Scares Almost Killed Me | 3 Scary Games" was uploaded to Jack's channel. Some fans speculate that Jack's chair moving on its own at 31:34 to 31:46 correlates with Anti. Other fans speculate that Anti appears in the video at 10:05, where Jack says "it's all easy, when no-one knows you exist" in Anti's voice. From the 47:07 mark to the 47:13, Jack's sentence is cutoff by a clip of him banging his head on his whiteboard with a TV-static-like overlay. The audio is also muffled. From the 47:36 mark to the very end of the video, Jack's sentence is cutoff by a static, with a few flickers of the shadow figure from the 38:43 can be seen. The proper outro does not play. Another fan noticed white flashes in the video that could be linked to Morse Code, reading IMHEREFRIENDHI - this was also pointed out by a fan in the fandom comments.
On February 26th, 2020, a 3 Scary Games video was uploaded with Anti hidden in the thumbnail. The original title of the video was "Don't Trust These Games", but was later changed to "Sentient". The games are all linked to obeying a higher-up or following orders, a fan pointed out. Instead of the usual outro, the video ends with a loud sound and snapshot from one of the games, but with a red filter.
On March 4th, 2020, a video called "Genuinely REALLY Scary | Locked Up" was uploaded to Jack's channel. At the end of the video, knocking can be heard, and Jack looks over his shoulder. This is followed by the moment where Jack pretends to blow out a candle similar to the monsters in the game. The outro does not play. Additionally, fans also pointed out that Jack was completely silent at the beginning of the video for over twenty seconds, with no intro, with some attributing this behaviour to Anti and others suggesting that Jack had recorded this from a livestream he did and cutting that out. Other fans attributed either of these above reasons to the reason why Jack introduced the video as 'three scary games' despite only playing one game and not titling the video with the typical 'three scary games' title.
On April 10th, 2020, Jack uploaded gameplay of We Went Back. When the game focused on post-it notes with drawings of knives, Jack's facecam flickered at 7:33. Other fans noticed this in the comments and attributed it to Anti.
On April 19th, 2020, Jack uploaded a new 3 Scary Games video. The intro started out with glitchy, flickering sounds, before it featured a glitched facecam and a glitchy TTS voice saying "Jack can't answer the phone right now". At the 23:26 mark, a robotic voice can be heard as Jack heads out of frame for a peebreak. Speeding up the voice by 2x seems to decipher it as "Help. They've broke me." Fans pointed out that Jack seemed to be only gone for 10 seconds (Without editing), leading some to assume that he simply left to put a suspicious moment there. At the end, an outro similar to the intro played instead of his usual outro. A fan in the video comments wrote a transcription of the voice that occurred at the end: "Who’s this then?//It never ends will it?//Please save my friend.//Phase Two will happen."
On May 1st, 2020, a video titled "DON'T COME TO THIS HOUSE (please stay away)| The Open House" was uploaded. The title later changed to "WELCOME TO MY HOUSE (please stay away)| The Open House". In the comments Jack wrote, Ǫ̸̝̠̮̂̍̎͝ͅͅF̷̭̲̞͉͐͊̀F̵̝̓̕E̷̱͂R̷̻̖͌͂̄̎ ̸̰͍̝̚A̵̛͔̣̲̝͒͂͊Ç̶͎̜̮͔̭̀̃C̴̗̱̪̲͎̈́̿͝Ë̸̡͇̪͈̭͉́P̸̡̨̤͖̫̉̒͠T̵̖̬͖̈́͌͆Ȩ̴̦̝͒̂͊͝D̸͚̗̽͌̂̚͠ which is theorized to be Anti accepting an offer from another ego. At 7:42, Jack's face cam can be seen zooming out for a split second, with a reflection-like effect applied. The camera shakes, before disappearing for a second after an in-game glitch. At 23:30 Jack says, " I'm the offer. I was a sacrifice." A few moments later, Jack's cellphone vibration can be heard in the right ear and he says he is getting a phone call. This happens as the game reads "Offer accepted, expect a call soon". The outro plays as normal.
On September 9th, 2020 Jack uploaded a video titled “20 Memes That Will Raise Your STONKS”. In it, he briefly talked about Anti, where at 14:14, for a split second, the screen becomes distorted. It happens again at 14:18.
On October 31st, 2020, Jack uploaded a Halloween special video called "Don't Make Eye Contact". Marvin the Magnificent is reading through a book of black magic, before touching a glass ball and seeing visions of Anti, Chase Brody, and Dr Schneeplestein. The video's previous title was "Argentum Inanis."
2022[]
“ | Hello, Chase. | „ |
~ Antisepticeye, ANOMALY FOUND - CHASE BRODY |
On October 31st, 2022, the first episode of I.R.I.S. aired on Jack's channel, featuring Chase Brody being held in a secure facility and being interviewed by a scientist. Anti is mentioned by the scientist several times, although he refers to him as "A.L.T.R. 114209," which Chase doesn't know the meaning of until much later. It's revealed that Chase is being held at I.R.I.S. because they were aware that Anti was interfering with Chase's life. Unbeknownst to anyone in the building, I.R.I.S' systems were being hacked by an unseen group (the stream viewers), dropping their defenses and letting Anti take further control. Throughout the episode, Anti possesses several of the interview and security cameras, keeping an eye on Chase and even communicating with him at certain points. He makes him hallucinate and experience pain, reminding him of the fate of his children. When the scientist orders that Chase be moved to a more secure location, Anti makes his move. In seconds, the guards and scientists escorting Chase are brutally murdered. Anti emerges from a camera and makes his way to the bloody hallway, where he confronts a terrified Chase.
