So, a first post to kick this thing off...

What's your favourite scary story? Creepypasta, childhood ghost stories, and full-fledged horror novels all count. Which one stops you sleeping at night?

I have to say, not a lot creeps me out. But this one does:

yeah, I can watch horror movies till my brain bleeds and not feel at all scared by them, but I still sometimes check under the bed before I go to sleep!

I cannot tell you how excited I was to see that there was a creepypasta community already established here. I love this stuff.

This one's one of my personal favorites: The Bad Dream.

Scary Stories to Tell In the Dark will always be my favorite. Probably because it was the first horror book series I read/had read to me. I remember in first grade, I would always look forward to going to class because of that. The teacher would shut the door and the blinds, then turn of the lights. What scared me wasn't the stories themselves, but the pictures. The drawings always scared me more than the stories ever did.

A creepypasta comm! Oh man, this has totally made my day.

I thinkThe Other Watcher will always be my ultimate favorite. I've told it irl a billion times and it still creeps me out if I read it too late at night.

I'm terrible at picking favorites of anything, but the last thing to keep me up all night was Ruby Quest.
