This Lemmy community is all about uncovering and discussing lost or forgotten media—whether it's an obscure comic strip, a vanished TV show, or a piece of software no one's seen in decades. Everything from missing video games and rare VHS tapes to lost paintings and deleted internet content is fair game. It's a hub for digital archaeologists and curious minds who don't want the past to disappear.

Kangaroo Steak (1930) (animatedcartoonscentral.fandom.com)

Kangaroo Steak is a 1930 animated short by Frank Moser and Paul Terry. The short hasn't been seen since its original release, and is considered lost.

Plot

The exact plot of Kangaroo Steak is a mystery, as no reviews, synopsis, or animator drafts still exist (the ladder almost certainly existed).

Given how Terrytoons of the era had food based names, it is possible that it takes place in outback Australia.

Camerahead (lost creepypasta) early 2000s (www.youtube.com)

In the early 2000s there was a site that showed popular creepypastas like Jeff the Killer and Ben Drowned. One of those stories was known as ''Camerahead''.

This creepypasta supposedly told the story of a 4chan user that stumbles upon a backpack which contained a written note that read "I killed a Camerahead". They are then hunted by the Cameraheads and posts images of them as they hunt him.

In 2010 the site got shut down. Jeff the Killer and Ben Drowned have been saved but Camerahead wasn't.
