Others have also noted on how the space provided within horror, particularly survival horror video games, provide uncanny architecture, characters, and actions that lend the video game platform to a unique horror experience. Furthermore, this anxiety is doubled due to its masculine construction.Īs Barbara Creed (2005a) has argued, this type of anxiety isn’t uncommon within horror tropes. She reflects masculine anxieties about power of feminine bodies, which is reflected back to players as a form of fear inducement.

Alice, through the functions of gender performance and as a the primal uncanny for Ink Bendy, operates as an uncanny presence and feminine monster within the game. By killing other ink characters in the studio, Alice is able to fix her deformed appearance and appear as she did in the animated cartoon (Kindly Beast, 2017-2018). Alice is obsessed with maintaining a pretty face for her role in the Bendy cartoon. Susie Campbell’s incarnation of Alice Angel provides the antagonist role of Chapters 3 and 4 in the game. Alice as a character is the embodiment of two separate employees of the animation studio: Susie Campbell, the original voice actor of Alice Angel, and Allison Pendle, the voice actor who replaced Susie for the character of Alice. Alice Angel, despite not being the title antagonist of the story, offers a monstrous addition to the game. Bendy (Kindly Beast, 2017-2018) features an array of characters that Stein encounters, attempting to figure out what happened to the workers of the animation studio, as many of them have become animated incarnations of the characters in the Bendy cartoon. The video game shows the first-person survival adventure of Henry Stein, a retired animator, as he becomes ensnared in the nightmare of Bendy, during a trip back to his old animator’s studio. Bendy and the Ink Machine (Kindly Beast, 2017-2018) (Bendy going forward) was released in episodic fashion between February 2017 and October 2018.
