Lewthur

Lewthur is the slash ship between Lewis Pepper and Arthur Kingsmen from the Mystery Skulls Animated fandom.

"Ghost"
At the beginning of the video, purple energy starts to tamper with the van being driven by Arthur, forcing him and his friends to take shelter in a nearby mansion, glowing with similar purple energy.

As the group is attacked by the suits of armor, Arthur is running ahead, with the three of them barely able to dodge it. They then fall through a trapdoor, with Arthur being separated from his friends, seemingly intentionally. Arriving on the ground, Arthur is greeted by a skeleton ghost with a pompadour made from purple flames, who points at him saying he hates him. Arthur makes a run for it, terrified and confused.

Arthur reunites with his friends who also run from the ghost, but Mystery stops when he sees a painting depicting their van. The painting reveals a man with purple hair named Lewis, who used to drive their van and was Arthur’s best friend and Vivi’s boyfriend. Arthur felt excluded from their relationship, when a ghost possessed him, Arthur was forced to shove Lewis into a bed of spikes during an expedition into a cave. Arthur seems to have no memory of the incident, but Lewis’s ghost is out for revenge.

However, Vivi throws herself between them, forcing Lewis to stop attacking and try to reconnect with her by giving her his heart. But Arthur has no idea what’s going on, so he tries to “save” Vivi from the “evil” ghost and runs away with her. Lewis is given more reasons to hate Arthur as he saw his attempt to save her as an intentional attempt at ruining his chances, nearly scorching Arthur, Vivi and her dog in a fit of rage.

Arthur drives away from the mansion with his friends, with Lewis making no attempt to chase them, instead, he makes his mansion disappear as he cries a single tear for Vivi.

"Freaking Out"
Lewis is accidently reawakened by a tree demon named Shiromori, who leaves him with magical flowers she also accidently summoned in a pursuit of Mystery, enchanted to track down Lewis himself and his two former friends. Lewis ends up using Vivi’s flower to repair his heart locket and use it as a way to find her, but he’s enraged to find Arthur’s flower and steps on it. Arthur feels this as he shivers the moment Lewis steps on his flower, briefly interrupting Arthur’s late-night attempt to find Lewis, thinking he had just gone missing. However, Mystery ends up catching him as the desktop image on Arthur’s laptop has Lewis slowly vanish, with Mystery scaring Arthur, believing he tried to erase evidence of Lewis’ existence intentionally. Meanwhile, Lewis is run over by a truck, but uses this opportunity to possess the truck and use it to chase Arthur down.

Fanon
Lewthur is a very popular ship in the fandom, considering how easy it is to interpret Arthur being in love with Lewis instead of Vivi. This only makes Lewis' murderous rage against Arthur after his death by the hands of the ghost possessing Arthur even more tragic.
