What are some of the most terrifying things in "Duck Detective"?

The Duck Detective was simply unthinkable and terrifying at that time! The creation of a strange atmosphere, the twisting ending of the murder case, the surprising plot setting, many plots and camera details have left a deep impression on me to this day. It is a veritable shadow of childhood. But it was also because of the vivid portrayal and gripping plot that when I was a child, I would sit in front of the TV every day waiting to watch Duck Detective.

Now I checked and found out that this cartoon actually has domestic origins. It is a product of cooperation between Shanghai Art Film Studio and a Canadian production company. The protagonist of this story is a female duck named Miss Mei. She works as a detective and travels around with her nephew, so she encounters various bizarre cases in various places.

I remember that the one that impressed me most was the Headless Horseman. I was very young when I watched it. When a caped headless horseman suddenly burst out in the terrifying soundtrack, it felt like it was about to burst out of the TV. I was shocked like a machine, and I couldn't help but worry about the duck detective. In short, it was not only scary, but also made me very anxious.

In addition to this rampaging headless horseman, there is also the Kissing Earl who lives in a gloomy old castle. He is elusive and will come out quietly at night to scare people. You don’t know when he will appear, and ancient The furnishings, light and shadow, and echoes in the castle are all so quiet and strange. When the count's dark figure appears outside the window, I can only blame the duck detective in my heart for why he insists on living in this castle. Can't he leave quickly... This cartoon makes me anxious and unable to put it down. Sometimes I am afraid to change the channel, or because I am worried about the safety of the protagonist, I jump back and continue watching.

However, when I look back now as an adult, I feel that these childhood shadow cartoons are often very vivid and successful in portraying them, and they shock me. In addition to Duck Detective and several episodes of Fullmetal Alchemist, the scene where Rose's dead lover's voice is attached to the plucked bird is recognized as a childhood shadow, but it's not because of how disgusting and bloody the picture is, but By hitting the shadow of the big bird on the curtain and making it tilt its head and speak mechanically, this method of creating atmosphere is similar to that of the duck detective. It is very simple, but it can also be said to be very successful.
