Bluey Lost Episode: Basement

(Before the story starts, I just want to let you know that this is my first attempt at making a lost episode creepypasta, so feel free to give me some criticism and tell me what I need to improve on. Without further ado, enjoy the story.) 
There’s a good chance that you’ve heard of a certain Australian and BBC made, animated preschool show called "Bluey", so I won’t waste your time giving you a synopsis or anything. Bluey is arguably the most loved kids show currently airing, and there’s a good reason why, this show, despite being aimed towards kids, has captured the attention of people beyond that age demographic, including teenagers and even adults. 
What do I think of the show? I think it’s just wonderful, no other word to describe it, it’s wholesome, funny, relatable and teaches kids valuable life lessons. Most, if not all kids shows, like "Dora the Explora", "Mickey Mouse Clubhouse" and especially "Peppa Pig" always talk down to the viewers and shoves the morals down your throats like a sledgehammer. But with Bluey, the morals are more subtle and that’s one of the main reasons why I adore the show, actually. 
Me being a self-proclaimed Bluey fan, I know every episode off by heart, or at least, I thought I did, until one fateful day, I watched an certain episode of the show, but if you're expecting this to be just another lighthearted and wholesome episode, well you couldn't be any more wrong...
I came across this particular episode while I was channel surfing on a nice Saturday afternoon, none of the current shows on piqued my interest, until my ears were soon met with an all too familiar theme tune, the theme of Bluey. I immediately sat up on the couch upon seeing the Heeler family playing musical statues, a huge grin spread across my face, as I went to the pantry, got a snack and sat back down, ready to watch my favorite shows. By now, the intro had ended as the episode officially began.
It started with an exterior view of the Heeler's house like in the beginning of most episodes as a musical cue played as the camera slowly zoomed in. It then cut to the playroom, where Bluey and Bingo are sitting on the floor and colouring, similar to the beginning of the episode "Daddy Robot". 
After about five seconds of this happening, Bandit then entered the scene, he explained to the girls that a good friend of his was going out for the weekend, and they were supposed to look after their house while they're gone. Surprisingly, Bluey and Bingo seemed on board with that idea, probably because they could explore around the house or something like that. After that scene, the episode then showed the title card. The episode was called "Basement" and the visual above the text was numerous piles of boxes.
After the title card, it showed the Heeler's car pulling up to a house, I assumed that this was the house of Bandit's friend. It looked kind of similar to Uncle Stripe's house, except the brown part of the house was a dark shade of blue, whilst the light green part was white. Since the show is known for reusing assets, I didn't think much of it. The episode then showed the Heeler family entering the house, the furniture looked flashy and expensive, with fancy-looking couches, armchairs and pots of plants, there were even a few pictures hanging on the walls. Bluey and Bingo were both in awe at the house's interior, and with a smile, they both asked their dad and mum if they could explore around this place, the two parents agreed, with the condition that they don't touch anything, while they both obeyed them. 
As the next scene began, a music soundtrack from the Series 1 episode; "Hotels" started playing as the scene showed Bluey and Bingo exploring the various rooms of the house, including the living room, the kitchen and even the bathroom, having a blast together.
"Wow Bingo, this house is cool." Bluey said to Bingo.
"I know, right?" Bingo replied with a smile.
All of a sudden, a loud creaking sound played, making both Bluey and Bingo jump.
"Uh.. what was that?" Bingo asked.
"I don't know." Bluey replied.
Bluey and Bingo both looked over and saw that the sound was coming from behind a nearby door. "It sounds like it's coming from behind that door." Bluey pointed out.
Bluey and Bingo then both slowly walked over towards the door as Bluey was the one to open it, they were both met with a pair of stairs going down, I assumed that this was supposed to be the basement of this house, it was dark as the stairs were barely seen. Bluey and Bingo looked at each other with concerned looks on their faces as they slowly made their way down the stairs, almost falling in the process. Once they got to the bottom, only their eyes were shown, which was a common trope in some cartoons, which made me laugh a little bit. After stumbling around in the dark, Bluey finally found a light switch as she turned it on. There was barely anything in the basement, it was like it hadn't been used for over five years.
"Oh, there's nothing here." Bluey said confused.
"Then what was making that strange sound?" Bingo asked.
"Maybe we should get Mum and Dad." Bluey thought, receiving a nod from Bingo.
Suddenly, the basement door slammed shut, getting the attention of the two young heelers. Bluey and Bingo both gave a small scream as they quickly ran up the stairs and frantically tried to open the basement door, but, for some reason, the door was locked.
"Bingo, what are we gonna do?" Bluey asked worriedly.
But before Bingo could reply, the same creaking sound played again as Bluey and Bingo slowly turned around, only to see nothing behind them, making them even more scared. Bluey and Bingo fell silent, listening closely for any other sounds. In fact, everything was quiet, there was no music or anything. All of a sudden, there was a loud bang, which actually scared me so much that I almost fell off of the couch, my heart was racing as the episode continued. Bluey and Bingo then screamed as they started frantically banging on the door, seemingly trying to get the attention of Bandit and Chilli from outside, but no one seemed to come to their rescue. The episode then showed a strange-like shadowy figure with glowing red eyes at the bottom of the basement stairs.
Bluey and Bingo both screamed as they continued banging on the door, this time a lot more frantically and more loudly. The figure was still standing in place, not even bothering to approach them.
"MUM! DAD! HELP US!!!" Bluey and Bingo screamed in unison.
It then cut to Bandit and Chilli, who were sitting and relaxing in the living room, when they suddenly hear the screaming of Bluey and Bingo.
"Is that Bluey and Bingo?" Bandit asked.
"I think so." Chilli replied. "They must be in trouble! Come on!"
It cut back to Bluey and Bingo in the basement, who were still banging on the door as the figure was still at the bottom of the stairs, staring at them. Finally, the door opened to reveal Bandit and Chilli standing there, both with concerned faces.
"Bluey, Bingo, are you girls okay?" Chilli asked.
Bluey and Bingo immediately ran into their parents arms and started explaining their situation, still traumatized at what in the world just happened, and even said to them there is a "monster" in the basement as well.
"Monster?" Bandit said confused. "What monster?"
Bluey and Bingo then looked back down at the bottom of the basement, only to find out that the figure was now nowhere to be seen. The camera then slowly zoomed in on Bluey and Bingo as they both had confused and scared looks on their faces. With that, the episode ended as the credits came on and I realized that it was a lot shorter than most episodes, as the credits played, I was just in a state of pure confusion. What did I just watch? Where did the figure in the basement go? Was it all in Bluey and Bingo's imagination? I decided that I needed to get some answers as to what this episode was about.
Later that day, I searched for this episode and found out that this episode was originally made for the first season, but it was soon scrapped due to it being way too frightening for a heartlighted and tame children's series like that in 2018. However, someone on the Bluey crew members had accidentally aired this episode, mistaking it for an ordinary episode. I wasn't sure if that was true or not since I don't think anyone would make that kind of mistake, but there was no other logical explanation. Soon enough, news about this episode spread around the internet like wildfire, including angry parents complaining to Ludo Studios about how this episode scared their kids, like how a "Teletubbies" episode aired with a lion and a bear back in 1997, and that scared kids too. Ever since I watched that strange episode, I've wanted to share my story to the internet, which is why I'm writing this. If there's one thing that you should take away from this, it's that you should always be prepared for the most unexpected of moments.
