Today, I'm going to be ranting about something so awful I've waited years to even bring this one up. I hate this particular thing SOOOO much that I literally put it off for as long as I possibly can. But finally after long wait, I'm going to stop being a pussy and rant about Morso. Man, just saying his name stresses my ass! I know what you may be thinking. Who the hell is Morso? He's this Finnish children's character who looks like a sheep on acid. But don't let the fact that he's aimed towards children fool you, he's completely and utterly terrifying inside and out. The character was the cause of many nightmares in Finland thanks to his shockingly scary character design. Although I'm not Finnish nor was I child when I had the misfortunate of stumbling upon Morso, I was one of the many people plagued by nightmares of this terrifying freak of nature. It was one of those times that I wish I hadn't let curiosity get the best of me. I'll never forget the fateful day I stumbled upon an image of Morso on YouTube. Out of morbid curiosity, I did research on him and to this day can hardly even think about the character without having a near panic attack. He literally looks like a freaking horror movie villain and all the footage I've seen of him makes it quite obvious that he was meant to be a terrifying villain. While thankfully, most of the footage from the short lived "children's show" has since been erased from existence the little bit of footage that has somehow survived showed the monster harassing a talking teddy bear by hiding his closet at night, creeping around in the darkness like some sort of stalker, and sadistically sneaking up behind a puppet child just for the sake of scaring him. Plus, the fact that the small bit of surviving footage is in Finnish makes it all the more terrifying because I have no idea what the character is even saying due to my inability to speak that particular foreign language. The monster could be saying,

"Hey kids, wanna come in my van and get some candy?" for all I know! The main question I always have whenever I see that little fucker is "WHY!?". Why the hell would they market that THING to children!? It's nightmarish even for adults and should never belong anywhere near a children's network. I've never seen anything so terrifying on an another adult show much less children's media. The thing seems like it should be in a Satanic book listing mythological demons not a freaking kid show of all things. How could such a thing even exist? Who on Earth thought it would be a good idea to display Morso right before the eyes of unsuspecting children? There's no way in Hell that any sane person could look at him and not even think for a second that he could possibly traumatize children. There's a reason why according to the research I've done on the character, none of the millennials who were exposed to Morso as a child remember him fondly. I haven't found ONE review of him that is even remotely positive and for good reason. The character has basically become associated with evil, as something so horrifying deserves to be. All of the "fan art" (and I use that term very loosely) I've found of the character is more along the lines of hate art one even showing him nailed to across with a demonic look in his eyes clearly implying that he's the Anti-Christ which makes perfect sense with all things being considered. Some adults claim that they are still traumatized by Morso to this day and seriously, I can't blame them for feeling that way. It's very natural to be frightened by what I consider to be one of the freakiest monsters in television history.
