Nintendo Labo has been providing us with all sorts of greatness, with players all around the world sharing their greatest creations and discoveries online for the world to see. This little find is a little different, however, and might make you view your Toy-Con house a little differently as you go to bed each night.
Shared by YouTube user Skrubly, this video below shows some creepy goings-on inside the cardboard home. By sending your beloved little creature to sleep and turning off the light, before removing all cardboard levers and simply waiting for a moment, you'll start to notice a whole host of spooky monsters appearing from drawers, and ghost-like rattling in the furniture. Is this the creature's nightmare? Or is it really happening to the poor thing?
The final moments, which see a playing card figure attempt to murder the creature before it thankfully wakes up, gave us a particular chill. Hopefully the young target audience of Labo see the cute side of all this - let's hope they've seen Monsters Inc.!
Have you made any interesting Labo discoveries? Are you having fun with everything it has to offer? Let us know how you've been getting on below.

The last thing was legit creepy. I would buy a game based on that little creature and hunting those ghost things. They looked pretty interesting.
Oh My LABO....
That was... interesting... I feel like my kid would be creeped out by this... He's 3 so he scares easily, but still...
Yeah, my 5 year old would be horrified.
Sometimes Nintendo goes so left field its charming.
Edited for clarity
Luigi’s Mansion 3 confirmed
Funny, and not chilling at all. I mean: a card figure. Come on...
It's still cute, and only a tiny bit scary, in an Alice in Wonderland kinda way.
It was pretty annoying to watch the video continuously going in and out of focus, though. Lousy camera man...
@MailOrderNinja Nintendo recommend this for ages 6 and up. That's what the heck, Nintendo. If a 3 or 5 year old gets scared then it's not their fault.
High quality content right there.
Oh please. When I was a kid I used to watch Nightmare on Elm Street and could not sleep for weeks. This does not give even a jump scare. Kids nowadays...
@riChchestM Well that was weirdly aggressive and super defensive.This is on me, because you can't read tone on the internet and I couldnt imagine anyone actually being upset by this neat inclusion.
My what the heck was more a delighted giggle and a "oh Nintendo" than anything.
@setezerocinco You are either commenting on my 5 year old or the other persons 3 year old possibly being creeped out by this.
No way you watched Nightmare on Elm Street at 3 and if you had you wouldn't recall it.
What a weird thing to get up in arms about with an exasperated "kids these days."
Labo creature confirmed for Smash.
Adorable. I’m curious as to what else goes on in the house...
You can clearly tell that House was the LABO game so far that the creators had the most fun with.
It's bursting with craziness.
@MailOrderNinja my point is that a 3 year old would not even understand what is happening. It is not scary at all!
@setezerocinco Can't argue with that logic.
That was pretty good actually. I really liked the King at the end of the video.
That's pretty weird. Not the first time Ninty and their cohorts has hidden something creepy inside of a cute, happy game.
I'll never forget the look on my kid's face when she first went through Prince Poo's Mu training. XD
I wonder if there is a happy dream scene too?
The creepiest part of this story is that person not being able to keep a 2:41 video in focus.
This is not creepy at all compared to what Nintendo put in their games in the 90's.
why?
Luigi's Mansion 3...
the creature is a little bit of a missed opportunity because it has no memory like a tamagotchi has.
Good thing that there isn't a Labo Eternal Darkness Mansion.
Now THAT would be really scary for kids...
(and maybe even for some adults as well)
Wonder if NL is going to run every random LABO article possible and pretend the Japanese sale chart from yesterday didn't happen 🤔

Good thing these are only virtual monsters!
Maybe Luigi will come to the rescue.
That was awesome! Maybe the Switch needs a Little Nightmares: Junior Edition?
THE NAPOLEON RED EYES YEEEEEEKK
Thats way creepier
You know... for kids!
Why didn't you guys just record it in TV mode?
Resident Evil: Labo edition
@Agramonte Posted it in the general Switch thread. Not sure why we only see the chart on certain weeks ; )
The red eyes coming from that portrait kinda gave me the willies.
Thank you for this article I have decided to return this game as it's unacceptable for my son of 6 years. I will also be complaining to ESRB.
Luigi's mansion 3 confirmed.
