Did you have a problem with 5 year olds having such adult logic, map making and building abilities? That was my main issue that would sometimes pull me out of the story. But it was definitely one of the best internet horror stories I've read. I'll check out the novel when it comes out.
And the odd amount of dialogue, and the increasingly unbelievable "just remembered something even more shocking!" and "whoa, I had never realized those traumatic incidents always involving the same few people were connected until now, honest!" explanations...
Seriously...fuck sleep paralysis...
Had an episode last night that terrified the ever-living shit out of me. The way my room is set up, my bed is against the wall on one side of the room. I typically fall asleep on my side, so i'm facing the wall, and my back is turned to the rest of the room. So as I'm sleeping, I wake up in the middle of the night unable to move. I'm still laying on my side, but I can't budge for some odd reason. I'm wide fucking awake (or at least it feels like it) and I cannot move. Suddenly, I realize that something is terribly wrong. I begin to hear a insane growling noise just above my ear. Like some fucking terrible demonic creature is hovering above me, breathing in my ear. I DARE NOT MOVE. I'm literally frozen still and deathly afraid of what might be waiting for me if I turn around. This goes on for about a minute before I fucking force myself to move. I awaken to find out that it was some horrible fucked up dream I was having.
Seriously...fuck sleep paralysis
Yeah dude...that shit is definitely no fun. The sad thing is, it happens randomly...with no rhyme or reason. In my 26 years, it has happened to me 3 times. I really hope it doesn't happen a fourth.
Ya, I thought it was interesting in A Waking Life, a lot of things I experienced in dreams were in that. I forget what else, but I remember the clocks not working.
Right, that's how I took it too. Attributing adult logic to childhood memories. That's normal I guess. The map was a bit much though, but I guess it could have been a really bad map.
Er... Yeah, I noticed that. And it's absurd.
Wasn't the (partial) amnesia a supernatural one, in that novel?
Or, first time that I can remember. Might've happened a couple of times when I was younger, but I didn't know what it was. I don't really remember it anymore. Probably a month ago. I was trying to move, but I couldn't, and I just remember when it finally let go, I nearly threw myself out of bed.
Nah.
Yes. It's the same thing, group of guys go home when IT comes back (as is customary every 20+ some odd years) and they all remember the shit that he put them through together. Removed from the situation of their childhoods, they have forgotten a lot of details, and these are details much larger than what we got in PenPals.
Nope, but that guy can apparently recall entire conversations, even the completely trivial ones!
Point is, he puts words, dramatic pauses and all that shit in his mother's mouth, all in a scene that he wasn't even there to witness. That's a lot of attention to drama and spectacle, for a supposedly true, traumatizing, personal story.
Not quite, since
I remember one night staying up late to watch something on TV and begrudgingly went upstairs to work on a report that I'd been neglecting to work on. Made myself some tea, sat there for a few hours typing it out and struggling over how to word a few sentences, finally finishing it. The moment I saved the document, I bolted up out of the sofa -- I was back downstairs on the chair with the TV showing white snow (that's never happened as I normally watch infomercials that late at night and I've never once seen that happen).
Alright well I figured this the best place to post this, its not creepy or anything but It is sorta strange. I'm sure this the result of a person with mental issues but nonetheless here's the scoop. My friend is coming to pick me up from my place after he gets out of work as usual, except his normal path is blocked off by a car accident, so he has to take a detour through my neighborhood to get to me, lo and behold he stumbles upon this;
A house with a bunch of signs on it. There's a bunch of yellow do not enter signs on the side that you can't see, the doors also swung wide open looking very creepy and what not but anyway here's the transcript of the larger sign
Like I said nothing to creepy but its not something you see everyday. There's room for this to grow though. I totally had the idea of getting a camcoder or something and you know going to the house at night and see whats up. Who knows what we might find! It's a ghost story waiting to happen/in the making...(were all to chicken to actually do this though lol)
This seemed to be the best place to post this. Has anyone been keeping track of the 'Baltic Sea Ufo'? It was found at the bottom of the Baltic sea via sonar sometime last year and was reported around the globe.
(Insert crashed Millennium Falcon joke here)
Now the team who discovered it have this last week gone back to study and investigate it, where they currently are now.

Apparently they have found something "amazing". Ignoring that is probably a rock formation, sunken battleship etc etc The website/reporting seems somewhat amateurish and unscientific. Strikes me as a long term viral marketing stunt more than anything
