A parody of Alex’s own WebVideo/MandelaCatalogue, as well as AnalogHorror in general, it takes the genre’s tropes and clichés and [[PlayedForLaughs playes them for laughs]].

-->-- '''Description of the first video'''

One day, Alex Kister saw a tweet that claimed that every AnalogHorror series is the same thing, with the same [[JumpScare jumpscares]] and such. Alex decided to make the user’s vision a reality, creating…

'''THE SCRIMBLO CATALOGUE'''

A parody of Alex’s own WebVideo/MandelaCatalogue, as well as AnalogHorror in general, it takes the genre’s tropes and clichés and [[PlayedForLaughs playes them for laughs]].

Currently there are two videos:

* ''"[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C3l2L5vpwJk&ab_channel=AlexKister The Scrimblo Catalogue I]]"'', which parodies a portion of ''"[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C8d12w6pMos&t=536s&ab_channel=MandelaCatalogue The Mandela Catalogue Vol. 1]]"'', as well as the memes of the fandom
* ''"[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MgrJRX8CfKs&t=33s&ab_channel=AlexKister The Scrimblo Catalogue II]]"'', which features a tutorial on how to create a stereotypical AnalogHorror video and much more.

!! '''The Scrimblo catalogue''' has examples of:
* DeliberateVHSQuality: As pretty much every AnalogHorror series does this, the Scrimblo Catalogue also applies it.
* FauxHorrific: The second video begins with a disclaimer that viewers are going to see something "very disturbing". It shows a video of cat going towards the camera. The same footage is later shown, but the cat is going backwards and forwards.
* InsaneTrollLogic: The first Video posits that the WebVideo/MandelaCatalogue is in fact Videogame/AmongUs. The reasons for this are: imposters, "?????", as well as [[spoiler: [[MemeticMutation Jerma's "sus" face]]]].
* JumpScare: In the second video, we are in a dark room with [[Videogame/FiveNightsAtFreddys Freddy Fazbear's music]] playing before he's about to kill you. When the lights go out, we are shown [[spoiler:the same cat video from before.]]
* MoodWhiplash: In both videos:
** At the end of the first one, we are shown a speedrun on how to make a scary face, while {{LetsPlay/Dream}}'s music is playing. After it's done, we are shown the end result, standing in the darkness, smiling and staring right at you.
** In the middle of the second one, we are shown text, saying "I am in your walls"[[note]] Evoking "Intruder Alert"[[/note]], which is followed by a smiley face. [[spoiler: ''After'' that, a picture of a head appears in the left top corner, bringing it back to (sort of) scary.]]
* ObjectShifting: In the first video, an alternate is said to have turned into car and killed Mark.
* PhonyNewscast: The "spooky scary checklist" from the second video says that a fake news broadcast is mandatory for all AnalogHorror series.
* SelfDeprecation: Fun fact: Mark Heathcliff from the WebVideo/MandelaCatalogue is actually portrayed by Alex Kister. In the second video, after Mark is declared "cancelled", the text on the screen states "also why does he look like this lol".
* {{Speedrun}}: Parodied. The end of the first video has a "how to make mandela catalogue scary face speedrun %", accompanied with {{LetsPlay/Dream}}'s speedrun music and all.
* StockFootage: A scene from WebVideo/Local58 is used when Mark travels to Cesar's house.
