About
Everything you might have wanted to know about the 12 Hour Scarefest, a 12 hour charity stream where I (a giant coward) play 12 hours of scary games for your entertainment.
Tune in on October 11th 2025 from Noon to Midnight (Mountain Time) at twitch.tv/adge85 (click the watch link above)
All donations go towards St Jude Children's Research Hospital.
Why St Jude?
-
St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital is leading the way the world understands, treats and defeats childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases. Our mission is clear: Finding cures. Saving children.
-
Families never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing or food – so they can focus on helping their child live.
-
Treatments invented at St. Jude have helped increase the overall childhood cancer survival rate from 20% to more than 80% since we opened more than 50 years ago. We won’t stop until no child dies from cancer.
-
St. Jude shares the breakthroughs it makes, and every child saved at St. Jude means doctors and scientists worldwide can use that knowledge to save thousands more children.
-
Unlike other hospitals, the majority of funding for St. Jude comes from generous donors.
Fundraising Goal
Every year is a new opportunity to be better than before, so this year I'm setting my sights on $15,000 for St Jude.
Fundraising Milestones
Donation Incentives
Donating to St Jude is its own reward, but for this event you get extra rewards in the form of tormenting me!
$10 - Creaky Door Notification
New this year! Last year my custom alerts were broken and this was the placeholder. Not as scary as the screams but still surprisingly effective.
$25 - Make Me Scream
The annual favorite incentive! Any donation of $25 or more will be accompanied by an in-stream notification and a sudden loud scream. It scares me almost every time and brings viewers a lot of laughs. Here is a video demonstration of it in action.
$40 - Demon Horse Notification
Once we've raised $2,000, all donations above $40 will be an even scarier notification that sounds like an evil demon horse screaming. It is gonna mess me up real good.
$50 - Spin The Wheel of Hot Sauce
If you want to leave it up to fate for the chance to see me really suffer, donate $50 or more and I will spin a wheel of 6 hot sauce choices. 4 of which are insanely hot, but 2 of them will be very mild. May the odds be ever in your favor.
$100 - Dinosaur Hands
A donation of $100 or more and I'll don these magnificent dinosaur hand puppets and play with them on for the next 5 minutes. It is very hard to play games with these on.
$100 - Kazoo Time
After we raise $1,000 a second option for $100 donors is active. I'll keep a kazoo in my mouth for the next 5 minutes. I'm not sure what screaming into a kazoo sounds like, but we're gonna find out!
Karaoke Incentive
After we raise $5,000 the Karaoke incentive will be live. For a $50 donation you can request a song for me to sing. The first 4 requests will then go into a poll in my fundraising campaign, which will be active for 1 hour. After the hour ends, the poll will close and whichever song raised the most money is the one I will sing. Then I will reopen the submissions for song requests and we'll do it all over again.
​
Any requested songs that don't win will not be allowed in future polls.
I will only sing 4 songs, and nothing longer than 4 minutes.
​
I will exercise veto power over any particularly vulgar songs. This fundraiser is for the kids!
Polls
Hair Color
Pick from a list of hair color combinations. Every dollar of your donation counts towards whichever colors you choose. if the fundraiser reaches the goal of $14000 the hair colors that have raised the most money wins and I will dye my hair those colors. No ties this year! In case of a tie I will choose the winning color combo.
The Games
The Quarry
I promised a few scarefests ago I wouldn't play another supermassive story driven horror game. But this one got great reviews! And you know the saying, fool me once, shame on you. Fool me three times, and now you're just being mean please stop fooling me I'm just a big dummy.
Don't Scream
A video game with the main hook of "if you scream the game starts over." Boy oh boy what could possibly go wrong.
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre
This was a real hoot last year, so I'm bringing it back! Maybe my friends will be able to keep the cursing in check this time.
Amnesia: The Bunker
Amnesia: The Dark Descent is to this day one of the scariest games I have ever played. Some reviews say this is even scarier. Ughghghghghghghgh
