Wondering what everyone’s favorite vengeful ghost is up to? If not climb out of TVs and appear in it Dead by daylight, she makes YouTube clips. That’s right, Sadako is now a YouTuber.

Sadako’s channel, 貞子の井戸暮らし, or Sadako’s Life In A Well, launched on March 5, with 3/5 being a Japanese pun on her name. This is not a fan account but an official channel!

Sadako leads through her room, showing her cathode ray TV and the well she sleeps in.

Her debut video is as awkward as that of a new YouTuber. Her video is peppered with cheesy music and sound effects, à la popular Japanese YouTubers hikakin. She’s not quite comfortable yet, and still seems a lot more relaxed when she’s scaring people to death. That will come with time.

(Even though these clips are meant to be funny and silly, I’m still slightly scared and insecure from them!)

In her follow-up clip, she answers a hundred questions so fans can get to know her a little better. She’s much more than just a nightmare-inducing ghost! Among the things she revealed is that her favorite book is The ringbut her favorite movie is ghostbusters and her favorite manga is Jujutsu Kaisen. Of course, she also said that she spends a lot of time brushing her hair.

Sadako also uploads some of her fondest memories, such as the time she threw the first pitch at a baseball game. She’s got quite the arm and excellent aim. I wonder if she will upload a clip showing the time she worked at a Japanese fast food Restaurant. Ah, memories.

As a YouTuber, Sadako plans to play video games, eat, sing, and more. If she gets enough subscribers, she even hopes to do the inevitable Cooperation with Hikakin. Maybe they can see who has the cheesier music and sound effects? now that would be frightening.
