Why? They're not real.InsanityWars wrote:Creepypastas still scare the living shit out of me.Zeldamaster12 wrote:Tails Doll scared me quite a bit when I was 11.
I'd say that the thing about creepypastas that make them so scary (for me at least) is that they play on a subconscious fear that maybe the things that they are describing could possibly be real. It's the same reason that at night, if I'm in my bedroom and the entire house is dark, sometimes I fear that if I open my door, some scary thing will be waiting for me on the other side. Rational? Hell freaking no. Scary, or at least creepy? Yeppers. With creepypastas, the idea is that even though they aren't real, your mind still somewhat thinks that it's real and that the scary thing in the creepypasta could actually happen, no matter how many times you tell yourself "It's just a stupid story." You're lucky, though, because you don't have a stupid brain that loves to scare you all the time.Zeldamaster12 wrote:Why?

Oh yeah, that bad ending was really freaky. The bad ending to Kirby's Dream Land 2 was similar too; Kirby and the animal friends walk home, but everything's cloudy and depressing. And then at the end, an image of the final boss Dark Matter is shown (alongside the rest of the "enemy roll call", you know) but listed as "???", and Kine looks up like he knows something's still wrong.Vyvuto wrote:^ That's pretty damn creepy. I know that if I was a kid, that'd really freak me the hell out.
My scary moment was when, in Kirby 64, if you get the bad ending, the Queen's (a protagonistic side character) eyes turn black after a seemingly happy ending, and suddenly a scary chord plays. That's it. Jesus, it's giving me chills just typing about it.
Now that you mention that, I'm starting to realize that in general, Kirby could be very creepy. There were even some enemies (in just about all the games) that looked really happy at first, and then suddenly transformed into a 1-eyed, sickly ravenous version of themselves that would chase after you (I think they were something like Laffies?). Not that creepy now, but certainly scary when I was little. Also, the true final boss of Kirby 64 had you shooting glass into his bleeding eye.Pseudo-dino wrote:Oh yeah, that bad ending was really freaky.

Those were called "Scarfies" and yes, they did scare me a bit as a kid.Vyvuto wrote:Now that you mention that, I'm starting to realize that in general, Kirby could be very creepy.

"For kids!"
I have a basement that gets nearly pitch-black at night unless the basement bathroom light is on. Also, I've seen and been scared shitless by many a jumpscare. The Tails Doll theories and other creepypastas I've read still make me paranoid to this day. But if you challenge me to a creepypasta ritual I can actually do, I can do it. Come on, throw one at me, I DARE YOU... No, seriously, I do.Zeldamaster12 wrote:Why? They're not real.
Was this the underground underwater stage on Ribbon Star? If so then YES YES I REMEMBER THE MUSICShy Guy 37 wrote:And does anyone remember the "Catacombs" stage in Kirby 64? It sure had some terrifying music.
