Did you miss me?
Yes, I know I should have quit when I was ahead, when I was at my peak.
And I did.
What you read today are the remainders, my leftovers.
I stopped spinning records 20 years ago, and went back once 10 years ago to play the best gig of my life.
Anyway, I am not far from being a BOOMER
So you are warned, this might come as a shock to you. Last week I found a very old internet hype I never heard of before.... by accident
I was looking for Creepy tunes, and I discovered a whole new world (hear the Aladdin tune) called CreepyPasta.
Yes, itยดs really called that:
Creepypasta is internet horror fiction that spreads like digital urban legends.
These creepypasta characters are internet-born horror legends, written as fictional stories that spread like modern folklore.
And you met one of those creeps last week!
1๏ธโฃ Slender Man
๐ค Appearance: Tall, faceless man in a black suit with long limbs and tentacle-like appendages.
๐ Backstory: Originally created in 2009 as part of an online Photoshop contest, Slender Man is said to stalk, abduct, and influence children. His legend inspired urban myths and even a real-life attempted murder in 2014.
I am totally under his, hers, it's Spell so tonight I will be serving Creepy Pasta!
๏ผด๏ฝ๏ฝ๏ฝ
๏ผญ๏ฝ ๏ผจ๏ฝ๏ฝ๏ฝ ๏ผ ๏ผด๏ฝ๏ฝ๏ฝ ๏ผท๏ฝ๏ฝ๏ฝ ๏ผญ๏ฝ
We did the Slenderman thing last week, so he will not be back...unless itยดs in your dreams.
But there is more, much more....there seems to be a guy called Jeff and every TerrorPasta fan loves this guy...he has more tributes than Queen.
Set It Off - Partners in Crime
Did you see Jeff?
2๏ธโฃ Jeff the Killer
๐ค Appearance: Pale, white face, dark sunken eyes, and a permanent bloody smile.
๐ Backstory: Jeff was a normal kid until he was attacked by bullies, burned with bleach and alcohol, and driven insane. After killing his family, he fled into the night, whispering his infamous catchphrase: โGo to sleep.โ
And then this other Creep, called Jack
3๏ธโฃ Laughing Jack
๐ค Appearance: A monochrome clown-like figure with a grinning, stitched mouth and empty black eyes.
๐ Backstory: Originally an imaginary friend, Laughing Jack turned evil when his creator, a lonely boy, abandoned him. Now, he targets children, befriends them, and brutally murders them in gruesome ways.
But I think Jeff is the more Popular of the two.
Simon Curtis - Flesh
This stuff is sick, Japanese sick like Nintendo.
Wow, what a non-coincidence that this next Character looks like LINK, after the game is over.
Falling In Reverse - Game Over
4๏ธโฃ BEN Drowned
๐ค Appearance: A distorted, eerie version of Link from The Legend of Zelda: Majoraโs Mask, often with bleeding eyes.
๐ Backstory: A haunted game cartridge supposedly possessed by a drowned boy named Ben. Players who play the cursed copy experience glitches, eerie messages, and paranormal events that suggest Ben is trying to escape.
But Ben is still not as big as Jeff, I mean you should see the art and fan fiction involving this Jeff guy.
Most songs are just cool tunes pimped with a creepu fanart video. But this lady makes original tunes for the creepy pasta community, thatยดs why this is one of my fav gems tonight.
Madame Macabre - Painted Smile
These Pasta People have the weirdest names, such non-saying stuff as Jeff, Jack, Ben, and another Jack....really were all the interesting names taken.
Get Scared - Sarcasm
5๏ธโฃ Eyeless Jack
๐ค Appearance: A faceless humanoid with black, empty eye sockets that leak a dark, tar-like substance.
๐ Backstory: A man woke up after being kidnapped to discover that one of his kidneys was missingโstolen by Eyeless Jack, a silent predator who preys on people and harvests their organs while they sleep.
This Jack is also a popular fellow, hip like the monsters under your bed and keeps popping up.
Skilet - Monster
6๏ธโฃ The Rake
๐ค Appearance: A pale, humanoid creature with long, claw-like fingers and empty, soulless eyes.
๐ Backstory: First appearing in 2006, The Rake is a cryptid-like being that lurks in bedrooms, whispering disturbing things to its victims before violently attacking them in their sleep.
But he is no Jeff that sneaks up on you when you are having the sweetest of dreams.
Emily Browning - Sweet Dreams
7๏ธโฃ Candle Cove
๐ค Appearance: Not a single character, but a creepy fictional TV show with terrifying puppet-like figures.
๐ Backstory: People recall watching a disturbing children's show called Candle Cove in the 1970s. However, upon investigation, itโs revealed that the show never existedโkids were actually staring at static the entire time.
This madame does such a great job I did not mind featuring her twice. Well, that and itยดs just a very fitting tune, obviously.
Madame Macabre - The Cove ft. WellheyProductions (Candle Cove Song)
I created so much fun stuff for tonight, enjoy my take on pasta art.
Guess who is our next contestant on this creepy runway, the Sega Super Star. So we have Nintendo, Sega, who is representing X-Box and PlayStation?
Play With Me - LongestSoloEver
8๏ธโฃ Sonic.EXE
๐ค Appearance: A demonic version of Sonic the Hedgehog, with bleeding eyes and a sinister grin.
๐ Backstory: A hacked version of a Sonic the Hedgehog game appears online, featuring a haunted version of Sonic who torments players before seemingly escaping into the real world.
Again a term that keeps popping up, that I have seen before but never cared about...what is this: Five Nights at Freddy's? I will tell you next week....if you are still alive that is.
"Just Gold" - MandoPony (Five Nights at Freddy's)
Honorable Encore:
As Jeff is our VIP and our favorite bad boy, I can not withhold Jane the Killer. The female counterpart to Jeff the Killer, seeking revenge on him.
Cascade - Bad Boy
I will be serving and dishing up some more creepypasta related tasties next week... in case you are still hungry.
For now, if you enjoyed tonight's session....welcome to the Pasta Familia!
Avanged Sevenfold - Welcome to the family
What Song to Send my Son
My son started a playlist Stuff For Dad and I will be adding my favorite song to my playlist for him: Songs For My Son!
https://open.spotify.com/playlist/12nIvKWCZjLmkCT3P7thTs
Every week I have to choose one song and tell you about it. And you Dear Reader tell me your favorite song in the comments, and feel free to try to change my mind.
Itยดs difficult, he probably knows CreepyPasta better than I do but in that case I chose an original song.
Painted Smile is definitely a well chosen example for this terror niche.
Please try and change my mind!

Interesting stuff. I might need to shelf this for a little bit. It kind of feels like I need to be in a "mood" to really dig into it. I was more of a Gummy Bears kind of guy when it came to cartoons!
Gummy Bears or Care Bears, or both.
I did not even know this was a thing till last week, but the songs they use are quite my taste Skillet, Set It Off, Falling In Reverse all bands I actually like to listen to so yup they got my attention...for the next two weeks or so !PIMP
Actually, both now that you mention it! I remember when Skillet first started out. I think they were a Christian band. I don't know if they still are. The story about the TV show was pretty interesting. That creator had a lot of talent.
In Italy Creepypasta's never been really a thing... or maybe I'm just too old ๐
