The Creepy Thread (Stories and Links Welcome)

Okay, it’s near my favorite time of the year and I’m seriously jonesing for some creepy material. There have been many threads in the past that have collected creepy material and I hope that this one becomes a repository for all things creepy. I’ve been collecting some of the material below from prior threads and elsewhere…

That said, here’s my list of creepy stuff. Please add your own stories or links!

You Tube Creepy Stuff:
Mr. Creepy Pasta - I find the narration effective and some of the CP’s are good. Plus the user has tons of videos and seems to be making new ones all the time.
The Little Fears - another Creepy Pasta site, although not as prolific as the first. I actually find her voice more effective.
Here are a few of her’s:
One in the Oven, The German Medic, and Candle Cove.
Reptile Woman - UFO Reptilian / Demon Morphing
Possible fallen angel in Catalonia (Spain)
Worlds scariest video.
MarbleHornets’s channel
Rubber Johnny
Suicide Forest in Japan
The Ghost Girl from a Cemetery in Mexico
Stuff They Don’t Want You To Know - Dyatlov Pass
Max Headroom WTTW Pirating Incident - 11/22/87
Rigoletto - La Donna E Mobile

There was one webpage that I’ve been trying to find, it featured a guy who created a chat program. One day someone was interacting with it, thinking no one would read the chat logs, and confessed to being hundreds of years old (sort of like the man from earth). Anyone know what site it was (if it still exists)?

I came here this morning just for this. Wonder if we can get a whole sections started again this year? I’m beginning to think I’ve seen the entire internet.

My contributions:
Scary anime comic
The Hanged Man - The entire SCP Foundation collection is uber-creepy, but this is my favorite.
Hidden Mother photography

One more (quite recent) from the Dope: My creepy story and yours.

I knew exactly what this was going to be. I love that one, though I’m rarely actually able to finish it. (The Korean-language original did better on the scary parts, actually, but the translation at least saves it from ‘wtf’?)

I love creepypasta! Before I knew what it was (and 4chan was not even a single line of code on moot’s computer) I used to browse Snopes’ Horror section.

I’ve never worked up the patience to go through all of the SCP Foundation - I admit, I like my creepypasta to have a quick payoff. I recently got through the Penpal series on /r/nosleepand loved it so much.

I don’t do visual creepy stuff though, that’s too much. I went through the Korean comic with no sound and slooooooow scrolling and that was enough for me!

Same here. I still browse Snope’s horror section. The problem with searching for good creepypasta on 4chan is you have to deal with 4chan. :slight_smile:

I hear you - I think I went through almost all of the holder’s series…oddly enough, but not the SCP Foundation yet.

Penpal was good - I’m thinking about getting the book. I’d like to support the author.

:slight_smile:

I like creepy visuals as long as they aren’t screamers. To me that just seems cheap and once you’ve seen it, there’s not much more to it. A 5 second creep and that’s it. Whereas something like the Hands That Resist him is a bit more interesting.

I read that the artist did a sequel, but I couldn’t find it on his site. :frowning:

Ask, and ye shall receive! Submitted for your consideration, here comes…

“THE GHOST OF OK-SU STATION”

At your service!

Can someone link to this penpal business? Sounds intriguing.

SCP is hit-or-miss, IMO. It’s one of those inside jokes that gets creepier (or funnier for some of them) the more you read. There’s one, I can’t find it now, that involves some sort of end-of-the-world scenario that always gives me the shivers.

Sometimes I feel like an old druggie with this stuff. I’m always looking for another hit, but it’s been a long, long time since I’ve found anything that really does it for me. I’m hoping for good stuff in a couple weeks when Sinister comes out!

It’s in my third post, there are 6 parts.

Ha! Thanks - I was actually asking for the sequel to ‘The Hands That Resist him’, but that is a good find as well!

Ah, thank you! I realize now I was being kind of a dick and not reading your lists very closely!

Also, can I just say how much it thrills me to see you’ve listed two of my top-five scary stories, “The October Game” and “The Keys to D’Esperance”?

:eek::eek::eek:

I like this thread. I finished reading the Penpals series, and I want to buy the kindle book, but it says it’s not available in the Asia-pacific. Gotta ask them about that.

Well now…What are the other three? :wink:

I think it’s available at other places. On his FB page, he mentions an e-store. I don’t have time to really dig into it today though.

Well, the third is Ramsey Campbell’s “The Pattern.”

Not sure the other two. I always list these three as my favorites, but then got to doubting myself and thought surely there must be two I like better. I just can’t think of them!

In order to not just post to subscribe and peruse all those links (seriously, that’s quite a collection!) later on, I think one thing you missed out is EverymanHYBRID, which is kinda in the Marble Hornets-vein (both are also related to the whole ‘Slenderman’-thing, I believe).
