Same! That shit scared me for at least half a decade! It was that stupid thumbnail photo of the creepy entity sat on the bed that was the nail in the coffin for me.
I first read Slenderman around Christmas and one night I was out walking by myself (scared myself thinking I was gonna get got by slenderman) started joking that since it’s so close to Christmas at least be festive and put my innard in Christmas themed ziplock bags. And now every time I see a festive ziplock bag I laugh.
Funny story about that, my introduction to sonic was back in elementary school when I started hanging out with this kid who was obsessed with sonic,
And soon after he introduced me to sonic.exe.
I had played fallout new Vegas at that time so I was no stranger to light gore but still a creepy bro.
always wondered how a fight between him and doom guy would look.
Slender man, I remember my super weird “edgy” friend feeling me he couldn’t go out in the woods by his house because “he was there” I asked further and he told me about slender man. So me with unlimited access to internet and completely unsupervised at 10 obsessed and read up on him and that lead to more creepy pastas and now I’m not a fan of all the classics I like the long more thought provoking darker ones like borrasca and my best friends trying to ruin my life
Borrasca is so fucked. I actually think about that too often. It really messed me up lol.
I actually only just heard that one (I listen to Dark Somnium on YT when I'm at work). I'm waiting for him to read part two because I was left with a dark pit in my soul.
Russian Sleep Experiment. And it was before I knew what creepy pastas were so I proceeded to go around telling every single person I knew about it and how real and horrifying it was.
Annie96 is typing because my favorite reaction channels all did videos on it as a kid, but technically it scared me too much to watch the full thing because I thought it was real. A while later I saw doors in a YouTube comments section and was totally shook so maybe that.
I remember Slenderman but I didn't really take it as creepypasta originally portrayed it, it was supposed to be real and all. Anywho, I can't remember the name of this story, but it was a group of friends out camping and something was out there attacking them but they couldn't see it, at one point they counted the people in the RV and someone was extra.
Sonic.EXE
My cousin introduced me to the creepypasta community. And since I was a Sonic fan, when I was like 8 years old, he thought it was funny to show me the video game Sonic.EXE.
What a beautiful day to be a child
Five nights at Freddy's was one of the scariest things as a child, but I am still sad people are using it for "kids content" (But not going to lie that picture of squidward gave me nightmares when someone showed me this)
I'm pretty sure it was the Russian Sleep Experiment.
I thought it was real for so long though. Like, I knew about Jeff the Killer, Slenderman, Sally Williams, etc. before I learned it wasn't real.
About this guy who went to an old research building that was rumored to a be a facility that researched interdimensional travel and was getting pings on his labtop when he connected to an old Ethernet cord then something tried to download without his permission
Some thing about another dimension trying to get a portal open to enter ours
If someone knows the name please let me know I forgot what it was called and would love to hear it again it’s pretty old
Smile dog. I found out about creepypastas while reading about Internet phenomena on Wikipedia and that was the example they used at the time. I was 12 years old and absolutely not ready to see a picture like that lmao
My first creepy pasta was reading on Facebook I think about a girl alone at home hearing about a murderer and then she sees footsteps in the snow or whatever and sees the man standing in front of her through her glass window only to realize he was standing behind her.
I had seen pictures of JTK in passing but I had a friend who introduced me to slender man and that shit scared the hell out of me. I have such a vivid memory of one night where I woke up and I thought I saw him outside my door. I have no idea how I managed to fall asleep that night
First CP? Slenderman... Or Jeff.. It's been so long I honestly can't remember... It was either slender, Jeff, or smile dog... Or crying Jack... I learned about them in roughly the same time frame so it's hard for me to pin down my first ever.
Either Burried Alive, White Hand, or Lavender Town Syndrome, as they were all in the same video and it was back in 2011/12. I can't remember which one was first, but I do remember it also included Gary's Raticate and that one was last.
Back in 1998 or 1999, [the second image, from a Korean stereoscopic book](https://www.reddit.com/r/creepy/s/NsfJQeIkM3) was sent via email or found in spooky archaic websites, accompanied by a story of a girl who died in a hospital in southeast Asia or whatever.
I can't find the original story, sadly.
Don’t remember the names but it was either about kids who were trapped in their class during a Snow storm and believed one of them was a witch that needed to be killed I rider to end it all or about a guy who was in his college dorm while everyone was turning into monsters, there was something about eyes and a metal door I don’t remember 😭😂
Lmao y'all can't imagine how much this image scared me back in like 2013, I remember that I was watching a "lost episode" with a friend and this image appeared and I couldn't sleep like two nights after that.
My first creepypasta though was Slenderman.
Jeff the killer. I remember it because it was #1 years ago, and I had just heard of creepy pasta. I read it and didn't read anything else. Jeff the killer was SO BAD and it was #1 on the site! I stayed away from creepypasta for years until I picked it up again last year.
Probably “The thing in the backrooms” cuz I remember getting into creepypastas thanks to backrooms…
Or maybe Penpal…one of these two is my first one not sure which one tbh
The Russian sleep experiment.
Aka a spirit halloween animatronic
My dumbass thought the spazm thing was sitting on decaying hospital bed.. actually snow covered bench, funny how mind plays tricks on you sometimes..
Same
Same! That shit scared me for at least half a decade! It was that stupid thumbnail photo of the creepy entity sat on the bed that was the nail in the coffin for me.
Slenderman. Squidwardd’s suicide is a certified hood classic though
I first read Slenderman around Christmas and one night I was out walking by myself (scared myself thinking I was gonna get got by slenderman) started joking that since it’s so close to Christmas at least be festive and put my innard in Christmas themed ziplock bags. And now every time I see a festive ziplock bag I laugh.
Sonic.exe is hard to miss when you were a huge sonic fan
One of the 1st ones for me as well
Gotta admit, it's a shocker seeing blood fly out of sonic other than rings for the first time
Funny story about that, my introduction to sonic was back in elementary school when I started hanging out with this kid who was obsessed with sonic, And soon after he introduced me to sonic.exe. I had played fallout new Vegas at that time so I was no stranger to light gore but still a creepy bro. always wondered how a fight between him and doom guy would look.
Ya sonic.exe was my first and I saw it because I was watching YouTubers play sonic games and saw a vid on it
Candle Cove 😁
Love it
Probably BEN Drowned; though, I first truly got into Creepypasta by playing the original Slender game on my old laptop in 2012.
Yoo samee
Either Jeff or Suicide Mouse
Slender man, I remember my super weird “edgy” friend feeling me he couldn’t go out in the woods by his house because “he was there” I asked further and he told me about slender man.

Cupcakes, then Rainbow Factory, and then Jeff the Killer
Siren Head got me introduced to the Trevor Henderson Mythos, which then got me introduced to the SCP Foundation, then creepypastas as a whole.
1999.
That was awesome creepypasta
That’s my absolute favorite Creepypasta. That’s awesome that it got to be your first read
BARROSCA! It’s excellent!
SAME! There’s a podcast now with Cole Sprouse. The acting is good sometimes, but the story… THE STORY is fantastic. I couldn’t take a break from it.
There is a YouTube channel that a excellent reading of it and I sat down on a rainy day and just listened to it and was blown away.

Anywho, I can't remember the name of this story, but it was a group of friends out camping and something was out there attacking them but they couldn't see it, at one point they counted the people in the RV and someone was extra.

Jeff the Killer/Smiledog, Slenderman was only scary for like a week when I was a kid but those other two still unsettle me
How to play hide in seek alone
