Side notes: Yes, I've played HL and HL2, though I don't recall the sequels, and it's been a decade or so since playing the games, so I had to polish up on my lore. I know headcrabs don't have legs that end in claws, but I did forget that Mr. Freeman used a crowbar, not a pipe wrench. But hey, you're here for the tingles, relaxation and sleep, not lore consistency, right? RIGHT!?!? Right. That's what I thought.

What is ASMR? It is both a sensation and a medium.
ASMR stands for Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response and is the current, non-scientific name given to the feeling characterized as a pleasurable tingling sensation felt in the head, scalp, back and other regions of the body in response to visual, auditory, tactile, olfactory, and/or cognitive stimuli, such as crinkling bags, hand movements, whispering, personal attention or watching someone perform a task. It's like goosebumps, but much more pleasant.
ASMR videos are meant to intentionally help induce this sensation, also referred to as "tingles", but also provide a relaxing, calming, soothing, therapeutic and even entertaining experience for the viewer.
Many people who do not experience ASMR still enjoy the videos for their calming and sleepy effect.
