Strings

Has anyone ever watched A Little Curious?
I did. 
Let me explain, When I was younger living with my parents. We had a premium cable package and having cable gives you channels that weren't over the air. I remember watching Cartoon network, Nickelodeon, and Disney Channel. You know, the classics. But we also had the premium movie channels Starz, Showtime and of course HBO. 
HBO is a channel that shows movies and also makes their own shows as well. Usually, HBO shows have violence, sex, and other subject materiel that might not be appropriate for kids. But HBO made a separate channel for kids called HBO Family and they made some kids shows like Crashbox and Happily Ever After. 
But I'm here to talk about A Little Curious.
To put it simply, A Little Curious is a preschool show that incorporates various styles of animation to 1-minute segments and compiles them into a 24-minute show. And I think it was kind of revolutionary at the time. It‘s about these inanimate objects that presumably live together in a house and explore the world around them. My favorite character was Mr. String because he would always worry about the tiniest things and the consequences of his actions. He basically was the best thing about this show.
Alright, enough yapping.
The reason I posted this is about a video that I watched and it still bugs me to this day.
I was on YouTube, bored out of my mind and trying to find something interesting to watch. After watching some animated short, I went to my recommendations to find something else to watch. I kept scrolling through the same thumbnails to videos that I already watched.
Until I spotted one thumbnail that caught my eye.
It was a picture of Mr. String smiling, but something felt.. unnerving about it. Like he was forced to smile for the camera. I was confused but nostalgia hitted me like a brick. Then I looked at the title of the video.
It was called Strings.
"Huh?" I asked myself. "This might be related to Mr. String.. Oh well, might as well be interesting."
So I clicked on the video.
The video started with a black screen for 5 seconds and then some white text faded into view.
"What you're about to see is a long lost animation made by a staff member of Curious Pictures. Please note that some of the content here might be too scary for younger viewers."
The white text faded out.
"Too scary?" I asked myself again.
The actual animation started with Mr. String sleeping as seen in the "Ring Ring Go Away" segment. He then woke up and yawned.
"Oh boy, it seems like it's a perfect day, definitely, definitely!"
He got off his bed to make some breakfast. as he crawled to the kitchen, he looked at the windows. Noticing that the sky was pitch black.
"Huh, did i oversleep again..?" Mr. String scratched his head in confusion. "It seems terribly terribly quiet as well.." He kept crawling to the kitchen, I mind you that there was no music in this video. He eventually reached the kitchen.
He got some bread and jam to make some toast. As he was about to eat the toast, He heard something. It.. was like a whisper.. I think something or someone was calling out to him..
"Gadzooks! what was that noise?"
The whisper was heard again, but it was louder.
"There it is again!" He said, mildly annoyed.
The whispers went on.
"Alright, time to get to the bottom of this!" Mr. String went to investigate the noise. as he crawled through the house, the whispers got louder. He eventually stopped crawling, still annoyed by the whispers.
"Sheesh, I looked everywhere for that noise. But I couldn't seem to find the source of it.. Could it just be my imaginati-"
He was interrupted by a smash cut to black.
"What..?" I said to myself. "Is that it?"
Just as I was about to close the video, I saw some text.
"Oh, there's that string again."
It cut back to Mr. String but he was in a dark room, the only thing illuminating the room was a single lightbulb hanging on the ceiling. He was confused as why he was in the room in the first place.
"Where am i?" He asked.
"Alone."
"But, why..?" He asked again.
"Because you deserve it."
Mr. String was creeped out by the response. So he asked this.
"Why did I deserve it?"
It cut to the text again.
"They don't want you anymore, your friends don't want you. Nobody wants you, You always mess stuff up. You worry about the dumbest things."
Mr. String looked shocked.
"I.. don't worry about the dumbest things.." He said, worriedly.
"Oh yes you do, you make everyone's day worse. You always have to be a goddamn nuisance to everyone you see."
It cut back to Mr. String, he looked like he was about to cry.
"Please, I don't want-"
"SHUT. UP."
He was pushed to the ground by a unseen force. Mr. String yelped in pain.
"Just be a fucking grownup for fuck's sake!"
Mr. String was starting to cry, but it didn't sound like his voice actor.. It sounded like a different man.
"Are you just going to accept the fact that no one wants you anymore?"
He kept crying.
"They didn't like you and they never will."
More crying.
"Can you accept the fact that they're.."
Mr. String was still crying.
"Gone because of you?"
The crying stopped. I could only hear the sound of his breathing.
"Gone because of me..?" He asked.
"Yes."
I could still hear his breathing...
Then he started laughing.
"He.. He.. Ha.."
He started to seize up and shake, still laughing. His breathing was shallow and I could catch a glimpse of clips of Mr. String fast-forwarding through the laughter. He then unexpectedly turned to face the screen, his design made jump a bit. His eyes were crudely replaced by realistic eyes tinted blue and also a grinning mouth that was tinted blue as well.
Some text appeared on top.
"Do you want me to?"
He suddenly slammed his face head-first on the ground, but it cut to black before I could see what happened next.
The Curious Pictures logo faded in after, and the video ended after that.
I stared at my screen, gobsmacked.
"What in the actual hell was that...?" I muttered.
I wanted to ask the channel who made this screwed-up animation. But the comments were turned off. I also wanted to contact Curious Pictures about this, but they closed down in 2014.
I told my friends about the video, they asked to see it. I gave them the link to the video. To my disappointment, they said that the video was deleted.
I've been trying to find this video again, to no avail. I looked everywhere for this video, but I still can't find anything related to the video or what staff member made it.
If you have any information on this video, please let me know as soon as possible.
(Yay! My first creepypasta! Any feedback or criticism is appreciated :>)
