Sesame Street - The Illuminati

While i was cleaning out the PBS archives back when i worked at PBS Kids, i came across a tape. It read "Sesame Street Illuminati Episode, circa 1998". I was curious, so i popped that thing in the convenient VHS player. And the episode began, when the intro played. The music was distorted and sounded wobbly, all the while. Weird images flashed throughout the intro, then the episode began. Gordon welcomed us to Sesame Street and said "Welcome to Sesame Street! Today, Big Bird is excited because today is his birthday party!". Big Bird appeared on camera saying he was excited over and over again, but then. Something terrifying happened. Something that still haunts my nightmares to this day...

Suddenly, two men came out of nowhere and started beating Big Bird with baseball bats. All the while, Gordon watched with a face of unbridled fear. I soon noticed the two men were wearing Illuminati patches, when the men were done beating Big Bird. They dragged his limp body into the back alley, I was horrified. How would they get away with something like this?! I continued to watch. It then cut to Big Bird tied up in front of a TV, with the other gang members behind him. This was where things got nasty and disturbing, Big Bird was tied down, one of the gang members poured Ludivico in his eyes so he could not shut them. Then, the member proceeded to turn on the TV. And it played disturbing videos that are so horrific that I wouldn't even DARE to describe them, Big Bird screamed and the episode ended, while the credits rolled. There was no music and the tape tended to cut in and out. The video ended there and the tape popped out of the player, i asked my co-worker what happened. He revealed that the episode was made by a PBS employee who soon got fired. I soon stopped working there after that.

I will never look at Sesame Street the same way ever again...
