Eric enters the house with two friends just when Jenny reads his blog post warning him not to. Right below Jenny's comment there's another one, possibly from the house itself, telling her 'all the boys are in now'.
oh, yeah, read that. Thought there was something after that but thanks anyway man!
Very much related.
WARNING: This one doesn't have an ending.
I spent my whole afternoon reading this for nothing.

bitch I'm taking calls.
Came upon the same conclusion after pouring a couple of hours into it in the same way. Wish I had gotten a warning beforehand but hopefully our posts will be enough to dissuade anyone else who doesn't want to waste their time. I see two distinct possibilities for the series as a whole:
1) The original creator(s) have been or are now inactive and the subsequent threads and comments have simply been readers who have taken up the mantle and helped to evolve the narrative as they see fit.
2) The original creator(s) were still involved up until the last known thread (occurring around summer), but were unable to find a satisfying way to conclude and thus quit.
To be honest based on how fast and loose the story develops it's probably a mix of both. There didn't seem to be a distinct plan in mind based on how the story was laid out which leads me to believe the author(s) simply had a collection of pre-planned hooks and possibilities and let it evolve as they went along. This theory seems to be supported by how each thread in the story often starts from scratch in terms of narrator and just the general way in which subsequent posts are written. It's clear there was thought put behind the world building but very little overall cohesive structure to the story which eventually was likely responsible for the collapse and abandonment by its creators.
That's the problem with creepypasta series that get too long. They become unwieldy and less and less likely to reach a real conclusion.

My favorite is Ted's Caving Blog.
This one ("That wasn't my husband who slept next to me last night") starts strongly - there's something amiss, like a piece that almost fits but doesn't. Then it ramps up and goes for paranoia (and suceeds), it's quite tense and gripping.
Then, sadly, it goes off the rails and becomes a sort-of morality tale with a hint of spirituality or whatever. A nice (slightly heartbreaking although kind of predictable) ending twist but still worth reading. It's long and has many parts, but hey... there are worse things to waste your time on.

I just read this today, too. It was great at the beginning. You could really tell when it went beyond itself and should have ended, though. By the second part it lost me and I'm not sure how anyone could read through that last part. Clearly a different writer who had no fucking clue what they were doing.

Just finished penpals and have a few questions
so josh was getting raped by some the man and his dad buried them? How did the man get josh? In the first chapter the main character was getting raped? And who killed Veronica? I couldn't piece it all together

The man became obsessed with the main character and was planning on taking him and burying himself with the main character but the main character kept waking up before he could. The man killed Veronica because he saw that they liked each other. Like a "you can't have him" psychotic obsession. The man kidnapped Josh (because they looked alike) when Josh went back into the woods to try to complete the map for the Main Character. He then held him somewhere and victimized him until he could set everything up. Then the man paid Josh's father (probably without knowing it was his father) to bury them. That's the only part that makes little sense, since I don't know how the guy wouldn't notice he was burying a coffin.
Pretty disturbing story.

Jesus.....
Just one more thing
wasn't josh kidnapped when he was 13? And when the main character met Veronica again he was 15? That's what threw me off. I thought the man was dead at that point. Or did he hold josh for a few years? [/spoilers]

I had to skim the story again but it does appear that the man held Josh captive for a few years before approaching his dad to bury them. The Main Characters Mother said it didn't look like Josh had been dead long and it looked like he had bit the neck of the Man and the man bled out on top of him inside the coffin. So Josh apparently suffocated inside the coffin with the man after being buried.

Man, dunno whether it's a coincidence or not, but Pete the Moonshiner and A Story to Scare My Son are both featured on NoSleep podcast this week. Could Peter Lewis be a GAFfer? LOL
Sorry, when I read it on reddit (hee) I thought it had a decent ending. Looking at the page I linked though it keeps going on quite a ways afterwards. I hadn't read any of the Chicago stuff.

Came to post this. :3
Stolen from a youtube comment :
My guess is that after the narrator sent his balloon out in the school project, a crazy guy who had been a stalker in the past happened to get it. He then began hunting the poor kid down, finding out everything he could about him, while taking dozens of pictures of him. The narrator soon befriended Josh, who, except for the color of his hair, looked very similar to the narrator. After a while, the narrator started thinking there were footsteps in his room, and thought he was sleepwalking, as he was waking up in various places. (Josh later mentioned this had been happening to him.) Eventually, he woke up outside, lost in the woods, while his mother found a runaway note on his bed. Apparently, the stalker intended to kidnap him that night, and left him alone a while for some reason. But, his plans were ruined when the narrator actually got back home safe.
They later decided to move (In the story Boxes) and ended up moving faster than planned when his mom saw what was under the house. The stalker had apparently lived under there, and kept trying to lure the cat under there so the boy would come in by himself to catch it, in which the stalker would have him. However, they would always find a way to catch Boxes without having to go under there, so that plan didn't work. After they moved, the stalker had trouble finding their new home, so lived in the old one, hoping to lure them back. After the narrator and Josh came back to get Boxes, the narrator found what was under the house, and the stalker met Josh and took his picture, apparently intending to mess with him later. (Which, unfortunately, is what happened) They ended up getting away, but left the walkie-talkie there, and had not been able to get Boxes. Later, the stalker found the walkie-talkie, and let Boxes' meows come through, just to mess with the narrator.
Later, him and Josh decided to explore the woods there and make a map of them. There also lived an old lady (Mrs. McGee) nearby, who always invited them in. On that last day, when they heard the stalker following their raft from the woods, the stalker apparently went in to the old lady's house. Upon returning, the narrator discovered that the stalker had messed with his clothes. When he was about to leave, the old lady showed up and started talking to him, but didn't invite him because the stalker was there, and was apparently trying to protect him in her own way. After she went back home, the stalker killed her and chopped her into pieces, and then left.
In Screens, the boy was now 15, and had lost contact with Josh. He had a crush on Josh's sister, and from her discovered that Josh had left a runaway note, just like the stalker left on his pillow. (Making it evident the stalker had actually gotten Josh.) Now the next part is kind of up to speculation, because this is where Veronica dies. My guess is that the stalker was a pedophile who was sickly in love with the narrator, and got jealous when the narrator got a crush on Veronica, and so he tried to kill her. Before leaving, he took her picture, and then later, stole her phone; tricking the narrator that he was Veronica while texting him. He then met up with him at the theater, after texting the narrator, "I love you". Later, the narrator found out Veronica had been dead the whole time, meaning the stalker had sent all the messages.
In "Friends", you discover that the stalker had apparently settled on getting Josh since he looked similar to the narrator, and had kidnapped him and done who knows what with him. (Meaning the stalker was also the one who left the note.) They later found Josh's body, laying in a large coffin with the stalker, who was now dead too. It mentions that this guy also looked in love and serene, while Josh's hair had been dyed to the same color of the narrator's, and given the narrator's old clothes to wear. (From his old house, that the stalker had occupied. This is why they were too small.) So, basically, the sicko had kidnapped Josh, forced his "love" on the poor kid, and dressed him to look like his original target (the narrator) and had gotten Josh's oblivious dad to bury them in the crypt/coffin thing so they could have their final moments together. (ugh) Also, it looked as though Josh had managed to kill the guy in the crypt, and had to sit there and slowly die of lack of air and nutrients, with the stalker's dead body with him the whole time. So, basically, he had a horrible death.
But, fortunately, the stalker was dead too, so the narrator never had to worry about him again....

My favourite Creepypasta is still "The Other Earth". It's only a few sentences long but it's so evocative. I don't know why I like it so much...
The Artisan
Member
are you talking about the stories I posted?
...this is creepy? It seems like a failed last-minute submission for Chicken Soup for the Teenage Soul.
When I saw "only a few sentences" I thought you were talking about "Knock", which is a little unsettling if you've never read it before.

Like I said, I don't know why I like it so much.
That was legit good
I've never really browsed through r/nosleep that much, gonna fix that
'The Expressionless' is kind of over-the-top for me.
"I....am.... God", followed by eating the security people. It's like the person who wrote it just completely gave up any slow burn and decided "Alright, fuck it, time to get crazy!"
My thoughts exactly. It makes me laugh tbh.
Am still a fan of Anansi's Goatman story. The description of the creature's voice really gets me, especially after all the odd behavior described previously.
"There's like a half-knocking, half-clawing at the door, and I shit you not, there's this voice, and it sounds like when you see those YouTube cats and dogs whose owners teach them how to "talk." It says in this halting, weirdly toned voice, "Let me the fuck in, stop fucking playing.""

Anyone here listen to creepypasta narrations? I'm a pretty big fan of CreepypastaJr, I think his voice is very strange but nice.
Goatman's a favorite of mine too. I always loved how it never technically harms anyone. It's just a really creepy thing that sneaks there and fucks around with them. It's a terrifying presence and nothing more. But it's still fucking terrifying.

Thanks Gaf, I went from having absolutely no idea what Creepypasta was to reading these all days.
Enjoyed the Disney ones, partially because I'm really interested in Disney Parks.

the Emergency Alert on my phone blared while I was reading halfway, it gave me a good jump scare lol

damn, man. but overall you're alright, right?
I'd honestly rather read something that I know is fake than something that is supposedly true but probably massively embellished.
