Animal Crossing is known for being a kid-friendly game. Its E for Everyone and is widely considered to be geared towards a younger audience, especially New Horizons. It's been one of the best games for younger Nintendo players to get into and enjoy. That doesn't mean, however, that it's all kid-friendly. For starters, the game allows players to create whatever they want, and sometimes that lends itself to a darker mood.It’s dark and stormy in Animal Crossing and my soul is healed.— 𝔍ℜ𝔊 🍁🍂🎃 (@jrgdrawing) June 19, 2021Some players have recreated Harry Potter islands, which aren't exactly the epitome of kid-friendly. Some have created horror islands, including one for Aika Village, a horror island in the lore of Animal Crossing. Clearly, what is widely regarded as a kid-friendly game has a bit of a dark side.The dark side of Animal CrossingThe first thing the players noticed was inside Tom Nook's office. While it seems harmless, Tom Nook has a spreadsheet open on his computer most of the time and some players are theorizing that he's tracking which players pay and don't pay so he can get the money back once and for all, much like he used to threaten players in previous iterations. Tom Nook has long been considered the villain of Animal Crossing, and this may be a secret plan he is hatching. It could also be a harmless spreadsheet from the town businessman.Tom Nook.

It's strange. Granted, players aren't supposed to get in there, but a mirror with no reflection has some dark connotations.The changing room in the Able Sisters Tailor Shop.

There are also some Easter eggs that are rather frightening, though. If players interact with the doghouse furniture item, it will let out a demonic growl and a pair of red, beady eyes will stare players down from inside.Does anyone have a doghouse in animal crossing they can send me so i can give one to my niece? Lol she’s 5 and wants one and i can’t get one in my nook terminal!— Nicole🧚‍♀️ (@bassssfairy) January 25, 2021Additionally, players can sit in front of a TV at 3:33 a.m. EST on a Saturday and they will see their television showing them aliens, potentially threatening their arrival before the screen goes blank again.It's safe to say that Animal Crossing, while fairly kid-friendly, has some things that aren't exactly meant for all ages.
