What the hell happened to creepypastas?

Whether it's Gilgamesh or urban legends, the art of storytelling has been around for thousands of years. In the case of creepypastas, just replace the campfire with a computer screen.

For those that have never experienced this internet genre of storytelling, creepypastas are horror-related stories, images, or videos. The name is based off the term "copypasta" because the stories are typically copied and pasted all over the internet.

But over the past few years, the popularity of the genre has dwindled after tragic events caused the community to reel itself back and stifle creation.

SEE ALSO: 17 terrifying creepypastas guaranteed to keep you up at night

Despite its struggles, creepypasta hasn't quite met its own horror movie ending, but rather turned into something else. Shifting from its home in the corners of the /x/ board of 4Chan and r/NoSleep subreddit, the genre has made its way to TV screens across the country thanks to Channel Zero, a SYFY television series created by Nicholas Antosca that expands on the plot of creepypastas on the internet.

The early days of creepypasta

Some older and popular creepypastas include Jeff the Killer, a serial killer with no eyelids and a terrifying smile who murders his family; and BEN Drowned, a story by YouTuber Alex Hall that revolves around a haunted cartridge of the video game The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask.

Hall included videos of the ordeal to further enhance the creepypasta.

"I saw that a lot of creepypastas only had one element to them — the writing — and I felt that if it had a visual component as well it would make it that much more engaging," Hall wrote.

BEN Drowned follows the story of a college student who goes the username Jadusable. The character buys a copy of The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask from a mysterious old man at a garage sale, that turned out to be haunted by a malevolent spirit named Ben.

"The genre itself was still pretty young when I wrote it in 2010," Hall wrote. "I didn’t know what it was at the time. I saw a few creepy video game stories in the wild, and I wanted to try my hand at writing something similar. It just happened to evolve organically from there."

Creepypastas get bigger—and more visual

The infamous Slender Man creature — who was birthed from a creepypasta — helped propel the community into the spotlight with his unnaturally elongated limbs and pale face lacking eyes, mouth, or a nose. Slender Man got so big that he had video games, YouTube web series, and a feature film based on him.

For content creators like Adam Rosner, making YouTube videos based on this figure was a cathartic hobby that eventually grew into a fully fleshed out web series called TribeTwelve.

"I started making videos back in 2010," Rosner said. "That type of raw horror was something that really appealed to me. It's a lot of what creepypasta lore really is."

youtube

Rosner's TribeTwelve series was well received by the community. In the series, Rosner plays the role of Noah Maxwell, a college student who is being tormented by a group of evil entities known as The Collective, and of course, Slender Man.

"When I started out I didn’t have a big plan," Rosner said. "I only wanted to have a few episodes and have a joke ending. But then people started posting in forums about my stuff, and they were really into the plot and visuals of the series."

As one of the large figures in the "Slenderverse," Rosner joined the ranks of other series creators like Marble Hornets and EveryManHYBRID, whose YouTube channels are dedicated to creating Slender Man videos.

Creepypastas take a dark turn

In 2016, a 12-year-old girl named Katelyn Davis livestreamed her suicide on Live.me. According to a blog post Davis wrote in December 2016, she had fallen in love with the the character Ben from Hall's creepypasta.

"I NEED his love. I NEED his warmth. It has been several months since I last spoke with him," Davis wrote. "He went by Ben Drowned. He claimed that he was the real Ben Drowned. Right now, I don’t care."

In an interview with Kotaku last year, Hall commented on the event.

"I don’t feel responsible," Hall said. "I feel like if it wasn’t my story, it would’ve been something else. Someone would have impersonated someone else or whatever, from another story, to lead her down that path or whatnot."

Davis' suicide was not the only tragedy surrounding creepypastas. Perhaps the most infamous case came in the form of an attack by two young girls in order to appease Slender Man.

In 2014, Anissa Weier and Morgan Geyser, lured their friend Payton Leutner into the woods in Wisconsin where they stabbed her 19 times and left her to die. All of the girls involved were 12-years-old at the time of the attack.

Multiple reports during the incident highlighted the girls' obsession with the creepypasta figure as a motive. Because of this, many felt Slender Man and the creepypasta community were guilty by association.

Thankfully, Leutner survived the attack after she dragged herself to a nearby road and was found by a cyclist. She was taken to the hospital to recover from her injuries, and her attackers were tried as adults in a court. Both Weier and Geyser pleaded guilty of attempted homicide. Weier was committed to 25 years and Geyser was committed to 40 years. Both of the teenagers are serving their sentences in psychiatric institutions.

"The stabbing was pretty discouraging for a lot of people," Rosner explained. "It felt like a lot of media outlets were looking for someone to point a finger at, and they just didn't understand the community at all."

Considered these two tragic events both involved young children, the community was hit hard.

Despite setbacks, creepypastas move to TV

Despite the backlash and decline in new stories, Nicholas Antosca saw potential in the genre, and revitalized the dying genre through his television show, Channel Zero.

"We wanted to honor the genre and give it our own twist," Antosca said. "The original stories are very short and it's necessary to bring a lot of stuff into it, so we wanted to give them more life with characters and a larger plot."

Channel Zero expands on creepypastas by using it as a platform to create an entire universe, characters, and a plot lines based off the original stories.

The show has been received well by critics and audiences. It's slated to premiere its fourth season, Dream Door, based on a creepypasta that was posted on the NoSleep subreddit last year. All of the original authors of the creepypastas were credited and paid.

"I have faith in the genre," Acosta said. "I think as long as people have fears in the modern world, they’re going to continue to read, write, and watch this stuff."

Will creepypastas continue to thrive?

At the moment, creepypastas are still being produced online, but not nearly at the same rate as they were previously. There also haven't been any standout creatures recently, such as Ben or Slender Man.

"I haven’t really seen too many newer ones crop up organically," Hall said. "I think a lot of the really popular ones came out in the first half of the decade and we’re waiting for the next big author out there to put their own spin on the genre."

Although the written aspect of creepypasta has declined over the past few years, the versatility of the internet has allowed it to retain its spooky value regardless of medium.

"It has a ridiculous amount of variety," Rosner said. "The community has so much to offer and I don't think it's ever going to go away, it'll just change forms."

Image: courtesy of syfy

Whether it's on TV, in a YouTube video, or written form, you can't escape a good urban legend or spooky story. As long as there are innovators in the community producing quality creepypasta for the internet, the genre is set to keep us up at night for more years to come.

"I’m excited to see where it goes in the future," Hall wrote. "I think there’s someone out there with an idea involving multiple mediums that’s going to set the internet on fire and I can’t wait for him or her to realize it."

Upgraded New Bozak Cma 10-2dl Rotary Dj Mixer By Mr. Beck Approaching Urei 1620: $2,200

This mixer was assembled using many new old stock parts, factory service parts, or obsolete original

material built and designed during the 1970s-1990s by the U.S.A. Bozak Company located in Connecticut.

Any part containing the Bozak name, logo, or part reference number including but not limited to main

circuit boards, plug in electronic cards, chassis, faceplates, etc is original material as designed by the

U.S.A. Bozak Company. Parts containing the HB or HBG identification logo or part reference number

are owned and used with permission from HBG Audio Specialists. New or obsolete universal parts

produced by manufactures such as Alps, Allen/Bradley, Amp, Aromat, Beyer Dynamic, Buckeye,

Centralab, Chicago Miniature, Frako, Motorola, RCA, etc are original as used in U.S.A. Bozak factory

products. Any universal replacement parts such as Transformers, Potentiometers, Transistors, Resistors,

Capacitors, Diodes, Switches, etc have been selected from today’s highest quality parts manufactures. The buyer/user is completely responsible for the proper

installation and any damages that might occur or be created from same. The mixer is guaranteed to not

be DOA if no shipping damage is present. No other warranty is expressed or implied. In no way is this

mixer associated with the company now using the Bozak name and producing Bozak brand electronic products. As the header states this is a 100% original U.S.A. Bozak brand mixer built with original U.S.A. Bozak

factory obsolete material and factory service parts. The chassis is a smudge proof factory only 110/230

volt DL unit that was designed originally in the early 1980s for export use. It is identical in every way to

its counterpart U.S.A. model with the exception of being able to operate on different line voltages. For

the first time, this mixer has a one of a kind upgrade never available before. Here is what Mr. Beck wrote…. 'The main complaint that was heard over the years from so many service facilities and I even get today

is the fact that the potentiometer replacement on U.S.A. Bozak brand mixers is so cumbersome and time

consuming. This issue was addressed for several service repair centers years ago but was never added to

the production line of mixers. A small card accepted the RK40 potentiometer that was installed with pins

instead of the production style solder loops. This made it possible to replace 1 level control without tearing

the entire front panel apart and the addition would save time and costs for both the customer and the service

repair centers. Because most Alps replacement potentiometers are available with pins instead of solder loops

I have designed a card to accept both the black RK40 and blue RK27 level controls. This is the first mixer

other than a handful of prototypes and service repairs that ever received this option. If you need to replace a level control at any point in time in this mixer you will not be required to cut, chop, or modify anything to install

either a black RK40 if still available or the now more commonly used blue RK27 Alps potentiometers. I

have added this for ease of replacement by technicians and less expense encountered by the customer.' This mixer features all new * Smudge proof service chassis with variable voltage option. * Original U.S.A. Bozak internal electronics. * Black RK40 Alps potentiometers with replacement boards. * Alpha soft touch balance controls with resister upgrade. * Bourns military bass and treble control potentiometers. * Cue switch with factory wiring. * Updated power supply card. * All new rear panel jacks with riveted heavy duty plates. * Factory knob set. The mixer will come configured as the original 1976-1989 factory DL mixer that was offered with 2

phono, 2 auxiliaries, and 2 microphone input channels. It is upgradeable to 4 phono inputs with the

addition of the 3rd and 4th channel 919 phono preamp cards. These cards when added makes channel

Aux 1 and Aux 2 become selectable phono channels. The only modification to make either channel

become a phono input is a simple repositioning of the rear input wires as explained in the owners service

manual and of course the purchase of the required 919 phono preamp card. Phono channels 1 & 2 can

become Auxiliary channels by removing the preamp card and replacing it with a jumper or jumper card. All of the front end cards as pictured are 100 % original Bozak inventory from the 1970s-1990s. All

cards are new and were recently tested or assembled by Mr. Beck carrying new factory or factory

replacement parts. The Line/Cue cards are original 1983-1989 HB225 mixer cards that run cooler and

quitter then the original counter parts. These cards are an upgrade to 28db and have the selectable option

to be increased to 30db if so desired. The phono cards have all new components that were hand selected

and matched for optimum cartridge acceptance. The power supply card has the upgraded Vishay brand

4000-8000 hour premium capacitors and heavy duty regulator. As mentioned earlier the mixer has an

original smudge proof service chassis with gold RCA input jacks, switchable loop in and out function,

factory face plate, and all new original manufacture knob set with custom shaft bushings, and variable

voltage option. The input and output potentiometers are all Alps brand RK40 Black Beauties mounted on the newly

designed HB-1-AA replacement boards. All balance potentiometers are electronically centered and are

equipped with the service upgrade resistors for accurate channel panning. The tone control cards are all

Problems That May Be Created Or Occur From Same. Any Damage From Shipment Will Be The

Responsibility Of The Buyer And Shall Be Taken Up With The Freight Carrier. The Amount Of Insurance

For Overseas Shipping Shall Be Decided Upon By The Buyer. The Unit Is Guaranteed Not To Be

Electronically DOA If No Physical Damage Is Present From Shipping. No Other Warranty Is Expressed

Or Implied.

In the last year or so there has been a problem

with international delivery guarantees. The mixer is shipped as soon as payment is made and cleared.

‘Roadrunner’ Director Deepfaked Anthony Bourdain’s Voice

Director Morgan Neville recently revealed in an interview with The New Yorker that the filmmakers used deepfake technology in the production of Roadrunner: A Film About Anthony Bourdain to create a voiceover that sounds like it was done by the deceased chef, author, and documentarian.

In Roadrunner, the viewer watches as Bourdain struggles with his meteoric rise from a normal restaurant chef to a world renowned author and television personality. In one scene, he appears to read part of an email that he sent to a friend aloud. “You are successful, and I am successful, and I’m wondering: Are you happy?” his voice says in the film.

The New Yorker reporter Helen Rosner asked Neville how the filmmakers got that recording of Bourdain reading the email aloud. Neville explains that this was just one of three written quotes that he wanted Bourdain's voice for but had no recordings of. They sent hours of recordings of Bourdain's voice to four software companies to create an AI model, or deepfake, of Bourdain’s voice before settling on one. Neville did not disclose which companies they used to create the deepfake, or what other portions of the movie used this AI-generated voice.

Motherboard previously did a podcast episode of CYBER in which we went through the process of deepfaking our podcast host (with consent) to show how far the technology has come along in the last few years and the potential issues associated with this tech.

The recent popularity of technology that can accurately simulate someone's likeness or voice has raised numerous ethical quandaries since their inception as a way to own women's bodies by creating porn, which Neville seems to be aware of. “We can have a documentary-ethics panel about it later," he told The New Yorker. Deepfake audio has also been used by hackers to socially engineer employees at corporations.

The Academy Award-winning director told GQ magazine that he asked Bourdain's widow Ottavia Busia and literary executor. “They were like, Tony would have been cool with that. I wasn’t putting words into his mouth. I was just trying to make them come alive.” He even reveals that he contemplated narrating the whole film with his voice using this deep fake technology, but "I stopped myself instantly."

The reaction to the news online has been largely negative, with some arguing that deepfakes go beyond line reads from other actors. Film critic Sean Burns tweeted that he was not aware of the use of the technology when he wrote his review, adding, "I feel like this tells you all you need to know about the ethics of the people behind this project."

Deepfakes have reached new levels of realism in recent years as people have used them to impersonate government officials and famous celebrities. Using machine learning like this in a documentary, even if it is for a deceased subject to orate their own words, sets a new precedent for films and will undoubtedly add fuel to the fiery debate over the technology.
