A triple-feature of short fiction arrives as David, Dead Palette and Kaela (strangely quiet Kaela) each throw a story at the wall to see what sticks.
"The Theater" has an unknown author, while "The Couch" is credited to Johnny and "Anna" to Hypodroid.

Currently listening to it. I enjoyed the theatre but agree that it has much potential that it missed. The couch on the other hand was chilling. When I was kid, I would go to sleep on the floor to only wake up in my bed. I use to think it was the sun putting me into my bed. So started to sleep under my bed to hide from the sun.

The theatre did have some promising imagery. I love the idea of "haunted" games - but it's rare we get a good one. Pale Luna was really a gem.
The couch was perfect! Kids seeing hands and eyes beneath furniture? Totally happened to everyone - insta-chill guaranteed.
Anna was such an old tired recipe - the ending had a bit of a punch, but it lost its effect because of the sameness of the whole.

But was it haunted? I didn't get the feeling it was haunted.
Anna was predictable, sure end was a slight twist on that I thought but I still thought he was the hit and run driver when it was first brought up.

which one? theathre or Pale Luna? Haunted is a generic term. No Pale Luna wasn't haunted - just a creepy note left for smarter people to decipher. Theatre tho... could have been haunted. Who knows? But haunted is not the right word I'm looking for when it comes to game creepypasta.

Sorry, I meant theatre. Pale Luna was a confession note in my opinion. Ben drowned was haunted. I felt theatre was an incomplete game with huge bugs or programming Easter eggs.

I posted a great comment in the video to get people to join the forum. Hopefully it works.
As for the episode itself:
The Theater: Great idea, poor execution. Like half the creepypasta out there, a writer has an idea that is creepy but can't build a story around it. And the swirly man? The only way the term "swirly" is effective in horror is if it is used in a high school bathrooms ... by big kids ... to smaller kids.
The Couch: I don't mind the atheist thing as much as David and DP. I think that overall its a well-constructed story that makes sense. Unique, believable, creepy. Not the best but it has an identity and knows what it wants to be. Nothing needed to be added and nothing needed to be taken away.
Anna: I enjoyed the story and grew interested in what would happen after the twist. Ending the story with "He had a promise to keep." would have been a better ending. That way you get the same effect of the ending: 'the narrator is going to attempt to commit suicide'. He could kill himself in multiple ways: overdose on his meds, hang himself with a bedsheet. Hospitals have things like arts and crafts, he could even bind his time so that he gets "better" and at the perfect moment stab himself with a pair of scissors. But grabbing scissors with the doctor standing right there, no, I don't buy that at all. Good story overall though.

The other person was a female ghost. She no longer exists.... I still exist. I just get stuck in the Internet every so often. It's a curse of mine. |
