I’ve been wanting to write a Creepypasta of some sort, but I’m having trouble figuring out what sort of elements I should add. If anyone has ideas on what to add to make this an effective Creepypasta; I’d love to know. Basically I’m just looking for what you think makes a Creepypasta good

Do you remember Microsoft 3D Movie Maker?  A free demo of it came with Windows 95.  If you really liked it, you could buy the full version on CD-ROM.  Basically, you could make your own 3D movies using preset actors, props, and scenes.  You could even add your own dialogue & sound effects using the computer's mic.  It was such a hit that it developed its own cult fanbase.

A little-known fact is that if you go to the intro page of the talent book and type in “socrates,” you'll find a live-action featurette on the making of 3D Movie Maker, originally known as “Project Socrates" to the developers.  It's a pretty fun watch, and I highly recommend it!

What I do not recommend, however, is “Project Caligula.”

I am (very begrudgingly) going to explain the process by which you can access Project Caligula.  To start, you must make a movie, choosing Misty City as the scene, and the small café as the camera angle.  As a prop, select the sphere, color it red, flatten it all the way, and put it under the left most table.  As actors, select S'kelly and Augustin.  Change Augustin's outfit to the tuxedo and put him in front of the café door, between the tables.  Place S'kelly horizontally at his feet.  You can do this using the adjustment tools in the part of the toolbar that is initially covered up.

Next, change the music to “Geist Evil Theme.”  Select the Sound effect “Laugh Maniac" and place it on Augustin.  Finally, make his action “At Rest" and have him stay like that for EXACTLY 17 frames.

Conclude by clicking “New Movie.”  A prompt will ask you if you want to save your movie.  Do so and save it as “caligula” (all lower case, no quotes).  When the screen comes up, go to “Open Movie" and select caligula.  Unlike other movies, whose preview pics are the first frame of the film, the screenshot will be a 3D graphic of the phrase “Welcome To Hell" in the font Bloody (which is not available in the original edition of the game) in front of a black background.

When you open the movie, instead of the preview pic, you will see a blood red background.  Again, this is the first of many things you'll see that are not presets of the game.  Clicking play will play 21 frames of the screen with an off-key version of Lacrimosa by Mozart playing on piano in the background.  The screen will then spiral wipe to the actor Bongo in front of the black background for 13 frames.  Then, his skin appears to melt off quite graphically, followed by subsequent layers of muscle, tissue and even organs, until it reaches the skeleton.  This skeleton, unlike the default S'kelly, looks eerily... well…

…like it belongs to Bongo.

The shape, lines, and even proportions, are fitted to Bongo's unique build.  The music gradually fades, replaced with a crescendo of tortured screams.  The skeleton then opens its mouth and says one of the preset lines:

“Those bullies won't bother me now!”

While this IS a line attributed to Bongo, the line is distorted to sound deep and very demonic.

The final thing you see is a text in front of one of the basic backgrounds from the Nickelodeon edition of 3D Movie Maker.  The front is hard to read, not only because the color almost completely blends in with the background, but also because it's in a strange font.  When translated, it reads:

“Let all those who see this film beware!  For whosoever seeks to make it their own shall suffer a fate worse than death.”

I had heard about a member of the 3DMM community who did try to modify the movie, so I found out where he lived to ask him about it.  When I got there, the lawn looked like it hadn't been mowed for days, and there was several days worth of mail & papers present.  I knocked on the door, but no one answered. 

I looked in a nearby window and saw that most of the house was covered in blood, urine, feces, and various entrails.  I opened the door only to have the severed torso of the person I was seeking fall towards me.  His skin was gone, as were his legs & hips, he was covered in blood, and I thought he was dead.

Until he grabbed my ankle and gasped:

“Why… why won't he let me die?”

“Who,” I asked.

“E… Edgar…”

I called 911 immediately.  The doctors made a startling discovery when they examined him: A piece of his brain was missing.  According to some psychologists, this part of the brain…

…alerts the body when it dies.

As to the identity of Edgar, according to my research, he was apparently a programmer for Microsoft working on Project Socrates.  He was fired for making horrifically graphic movies and later committed suicide.  His suicide note read:

“You'll regret this."

I know I did...

you know..... some strange things have happened to me after years ago when i was nine i was happy that my dad brought me a wii on christmas eve back in 2009 i tell my dad like hey dad can you turn on the wii but my dad was like yes son but i am busy at moment

Anyone know any good creepypastas that start off innocent and/or normal, but slowly delves darker instead of just fully focusing on the horror?

Horror

Found this post on Facebook

Hi guys. I remember in the past I watched someone tell a creepy story (can't remember if it was a creepypasta or he invented it) and it was about a boyfriend texting this girl whilst he was going out with a girl (gf). The story ended with the girl sending pics of herself to the boyfriend, but it turns out she was sending him pics of gf, then a picture of gf being dead, then a selfie of herself being horribly disfigured.

My name is noah One night me a 17 male and my friends michel and hayden snuck out and went to explore the woods as we were exploring we found an abandoned house we decided that it would be cool to explore it we went up to the door but it was locked thinking that the old owners locked it we named the door open and started looking around we went upstairs and looked in a room showed and horrified by what we saw it was a empty room except for the chains Sandown from the roof there was blood on the walls and scratch marks on the door frame like someone or something tried to get out we ran downstairs but before we got to the door we bummed into something as we looked it was a tall Sim man wearing a black suit and he had no face we turned around and ran out through the back door as we were running Michael fell I wanted to help but Hayden grabbed my arm and pulled me when I looked back the man had grabbed Michel we ran until we left the woods and went to the police station and reported it we told them about the house and the man but they said they would look into it a week later they called off the seach they told me that they went into the woods and seached miles back and didn't find a house or Michael I went home and tried to forget bit I could even when I had kids I still felt like Michael was watching me

Hi, i need to find a repository creepypastas about "games" to invoke demons/ghosts... Where can I find that?

Hello everyone. I'm currently looking for stories to hone my narrating skills. I know I'm a single fish in a school of narrators but I won't let that stop me. Unfortunately, a majority of creepypasta requires permission to narrate so I'm asking if anyone would be willing to offer their stories or point me in the right direction. (Credit will be given in description and opening sentence of every video.) Thank you for taking the time to read this and y'all have a wonderful day.

Things like shadows on the wall in the dark, monsters under the bed, that thing you swear you saw out the corner of your eye, the monster in the basement. Stuff like that!

I recently sat down and watched a bunch of Slender-Man stuff with a friend. ( The Marble Hornets Always Watching, A slender movie from 2016 and the one from 2018).

It got me wondering, with how insanely popular Slender was, why was there never a Jeff The Killer one? At the time, it felt Jeff was nearly as popular and I'm surprised there never was one made for him. Seems like it would be the perfect Hollywood Slasher type, no?

But how do you guys feel? would this be something you'd love to see?
