No idea. Probably takes great care of it's tush to feel the pressing of fine silk sheets.
>>83403690
Mrcreepypasta is behind this so I have faith it'll be good. Just hope the comic does obscure creepy pastas as well.
>>83403690
"He Is The Rake" was actually a pretty interesting Creepypasta. I don't really like the art for the comic, I wish the art looked creepy like in the "Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark" books. However, if I hear that the comic is good then I'll get it.I'm kinda a fag for spooky/paranormal stuff
That art style does NOT fit the subject
>>83405097
I don't think they were aiming for a Silent Hill grimdark style. Probably something more normal to fit in a realistic setting for unrealistic creepy stuff.
I think we should give creepy individuals the benefit of the doubt. For example >>83404677 may just want a threesome.

Technically, Kuchisake-onna urban legends fucking blew up in Japan on the internet and caused it to reenter pop culture after the 70's scare and the slasher flicks.
So the one on the right there does actually count. Or it would if it was a western work.
For those that don't know its an old ghost story from Japanese mythology, which is Greek tier in terms of having fucking awesome monsters. Any malevolent female ghost is an onna, like The Grudge or The Ring or any of the Fatal Frame games.
Kuchisake="split mouth", the original story is a samurai cut his wife's mouth open (why varies from version to version, usually because he's an asshole) so her ghost wanders around with fan or in the modern versions of the story a face mask on (which a lot of people do in Asian countries when sick, to be polite and not spread germs everywhere). She asks random people, in some versions just children, if she's pretty. Say yes and she rips the mask off showing she's a corpse with a hanging mouth and asks again, at which point she'll fucking shank the shit out of you with superman-tier strength and no way you can fight back because she's a fucking ghost. The only way to not get killed is to give a noncommittal response like "you look average" or "you look like everyone else" both times at which point she just kind of shrugs and walks away. In some versions you can also offer her candy or something like lip balm instead of answering and she'll also leave you alone.
Rant over, hopefully someone western makes some good Japanese myth comics soon because all we can discuss on /co/ is samurai through Usagi Yojimbo and that kind of sucks.
I would freaking love to see a comic version of the The Russian Sleep Experiment or 'My Brother died when I was a child. He kept talking.' for the fucked up afterlife visuals.
>>83403690
Will they make comics about Tile-anon or Eat all the eggs?
>>83405595
>This image
>Give her lip balm
I laughed.
>>83404677
> even the Rake isn't safe from /co/
>>83405658
The giving her mouth-related gifts tends to be the more child-friendly version of the story like how you can put the "hook on the doorhandle" urban legend in children's scary story books without having the boyfriend be dead outside the car. So its probably intentional to be silly.
In the adult versions, including a line of slasher movies inspired by public panic over some supposedly real sightings in subways in the 1970's, you're pretty much going to die no matter what and because Japanese ghosts tend to infect others with their curse then there ends up being a small army of super strength unkillable women in surgical masks brandishing knives who all want to ask you a question in every public place.

Wrong pic, sorry. Didn't mean to post two from the same movie.
>>83405595
I thought if you said "yes" again she'd do the same thing to you, and if you said "no" she just straight up murders you. The way to avoid it is to say something like "I'm sorry I have somewhere to be" and because even japanese monsters are stupidly polite she gets all flustered and leaves you alone.

>>83405784
There's a fuckload of different versions of the story because its always been one of the most popular ghost stories, I wouldn't be surprised at almost any variant.
Hell, there's even a fair amount of Japanese ghosts that are into fucking. There's like five major stories about men who marry seemingly perfect women only for a surprise. One has a mouth in the back of her head that eats nonstop, one will sleep with you every night no matter how far you travel because her soul will always be bound to you no matter if she's eating dinner at home while you are on a business trip or she's six years dead, one has a secret that she tells her husband to never try to discover and if he does she is revealed to be a ghost and usually has to leave him like a spooky Selkie, and of course the ever popular hitchhiking girl story except you don't find out she's dead until you are both in your 90's with great grandchildren at which point it doesn't really matter.
That's just the ones I know about, there's a metric fuckload of Japanese ghost stories.

The idea is its cute if you're really in love, becoming exes or her dying and you living turns really fucking awkward fast. You'll have your ex in your bed every night, or a corpse in an advancing state of decay. That's not even going into what happens if you try cheating.

We need more conceptual creepiness in comics and cartoons. It's seriously lacking.
>>83406423
How is a slasher movie villain fapbait? Not trying to be patronizing, but most Japanese ghost stories are like if every teenager Jason killed joined him as a retard with a machete patrolling the woods and lake for people having sex to kill.
Is it just because most Japanese ghosts are female? Because that's actually caused by religious tradition, the Japanese mythology equivalent to Eve turned into a monster in the underworld who sends spirits to torment mankind. Its sort of an extrapolation of original sin.

>>83406622
Nah. It's probably because the majority of Japan has a habit of trying to make everything cute.
I actually have family in Japan where the house is near a shine. I'm more use to scary western stories since they aren't all about straight up human looking.
>>83403690
I swear this dude does Mind control porn.
>>83406555
Japanese is the best approach. Most ghosts are just like the living but immortal and playing by new rules. Like Spirited Away, except they like to wander the human world too and quite a few are really scary looking and most have an odd quirk or special rule they have to play by or some strange deformity.
Its only a handful that have the personality of Rule 63 Freddy Krueger. Mostly people who died REALLY miserable deaths that they are bitter as fuck about so the system of death and life and reincarnation says "the mortal world owes you big time for your suffering, feel free to extract it however you see fit". Some become slasher villains, some steal one of everyone's socks in each pair, some just want to drink and fight and fuck, some want to settle down and have the kids they always wanted.
>>83406558
Well, I'm not the kind of guy who would cheat and considering how I only had one girlfriend in my life I don't think the exes would be a big issue. I don't think I am very likely to have another love relationship after losing a big one. About dying women tend to live longer and couples the male tends to be younger. Also I had my share of stress in my life so as long as she is reasonably healthy chances are that she wouldn't die before me. Also by your pic I assume she doesn't come back as a corpse but as a ghost and I'm okay with that. a corpse is not a person or hold its identity/memories.

>>83406744
Basically her soul will always be with you. Japanese ghosts tend to be far more physical than western ones, so it'd look like she's a little pale until you notice she's slightly transparent at the edges and feels a bit too cold or warm to the touch. But otherwise like normal, able to touch and have sex and eat and sleep and everything else.
Even if she's just sleeping in another room, the ghostly version will appear in the room you are in.
If she dies the soul still visits you, but reflecting what the body currently looks like. I guess if you knew of the condition (since in the story most men don't realize it until after they cheat/are widowed) and she does die you could have her preserved like a mummy so a maggoty bloated rotted corpse with empty eye sockets and no lips doesn't appear in your room and try to be lovey dovey every night for the rest of your life.
The story doesn't have a version where the body is disposed of via something like incineration though.
Still, that is assuming she dies first. Not sure what happens if you do, maybe she spends every night in heaven/hell with you. Reincarnation is the point where I think its better to just give up questioning it.
>>83406684
There... really aren't any. Goatmen were a thing a while back on /x/ but I've not been in ages since it's so shit now.
The whole "Creepypasta" scene has become so circlejerky and self-referential that you don't get anything new anymore. They all just remix the same themes and ideas nowadays.
Then you have dudes like the Bogleech guy and the Creepypasta wiki who are constantly pumping the things out but have no understanding of how to write horror. It's just a bunch of vaguely creepy weirdness and then a cop-out ending like "I just started laughing" or "I ran away." There's also the way that so many of them use the idea of memetics that Slenderman and those early SCP things were fascinated with ("If you think about it, it comes for YOU! You're thinking about it now, aren't you?!")
The worst, though, is that they aren't shared through /x/ or /b/ anymore. When they were posts from a random anon it added to the appeal. There was the idea that maybe, just maybe they were telling the truth. Now they're either posted directly to a wiki (fucking lame) or they're shared through Youtube storytellers, which just feels kind of cheap.

>>83406907

pretty convenient desu. You could, say, chop vegetables while she watches your pan for you, and cleans in the other room
>>83406873
In Japanese myths, the line between living and dead is a lot more faint.
You know how in Greek mythology you can physically take a boat to the underworld and the spirits of the dead have physical bodies which can feel no pleasure or warmth?
Or how in Egyptian mythology everyone who is good gets a body of gold?
In non-Abrahamic afterlife beliefs, ghosts are usually far more physical beings. Japanese myth especially where the dead are sometimes just like the living but with some extra rules, like looking like whatever state your body is in when in moonlight or having a magic box nobody must ever look inside or you have to go to the afterlife immediately without passing Go or collecting $200.
Like I said, the really fucked up ghost stories where the ghost is like a slasher movie villain are rare. Most ghosts are subtle bastards like The Shining, normal people trying to keep living like Pushing Daisies, or people who are cursed and miserable like Gollum.
Some turn into monsters or demigods too. Like Totoro, who could very well just have been a ghost who spent so long in the forest he started turning into an animal spirit.

No, the Nurses coincidentally became that.
In SH 1 the Nurses are like all the other monsters, Alessa's fears. The original Nurses were alongside Doctors and were giant hunchbackslike an adult bending over to take care of a child burn victim by sticking her with needles and cutting away dead flesh.
Silent Hill 2 Nurses were made sexual to represent the unconscious sexual frustration of a man spending most of his time in a hospital caring for his sick wife. They had scalpels because its a simple weapon to give monster nurses, but also had rusty steel pipes to be part of the theme everything falling apart and being prepared to be rebuilt representing his mental state.
Nurses appeared in 3 because you are Alessa as a young woman, but the symbolism is kind of lost. They're nonsexual nurses with guns and smeared lipstick with a creepy grin and no eyes for...reasons. Most of the rest of the symbolism is a metaphor for sex, pregnancy, childbirth, and Alessa's fears again but the new style of nurses are just kind of there.
Nurses in every other Silent Hill game and the movies have no purpose. They are just there to reference Silent Hill 2 as the most popular game in the series.

Okay, good Japanese ghost story. Undead dogs.
In the mountain and hill roads the ghosts of dead dogs congregate in packs. They watch from EVERYWHERE, looking for weakness. If you look weak or afraid, you will be torn apart by hundreds of dogs instantly. The spirits of the dead homeless or forgotten sometimes join them too.
If you trip, make it look like you are tying your shoe or looking at the ground. Whistle a happy tune, maintain a brisk but not too fast pace, DO NOT FEEL FEAR EVEN FOR A MOMENT. DO NOT STOP AND REST OR SLEEP. IF YOU HAVE TO SHIT OR PISS, YOU ONLY HAVE A MINUTE OR TWO AT BEST TO DO IT.
The hungry dog and human ghosts will keep watching you.
But there's a perk, any bandits on the road will be more likely than you to stumble or feel afraid so the dogs should keep your path clear of riff raff.
If you make it home it may be tempting to run inside where you are safe, but if you have the massive fucking balls to turn around and thank them all loudly for being your companions on the lonely trip, go inside and get some food on nice dishes, then leave it out for them and say good night then they'll guard your house for a while.

It actually ruined everything about the original game. It had none of the symbolism and it took out combat entirely. Also lets not forget that any sense of danger is removed since they literally advertise when enemies can show up. By enemies I of course mean enemy, since there is only one kind of monster in the entire game. it was a pointless game that relied entirely on the psychology gimmick.
Ordinary horror comics suck, I don't even want to know how bad are the ones based on shitty creepypastas.

Check this out. This has to be the most creepypasta creepypasta I've ever seen. The fact that it's an armless monster that kills you with its toenails makes it impossible to take seriously.

Derelict has interesting horror in that it's more mental than physical.
Also, Wake has aliens with terrifying powers that are a mix of both.

Look, anon. I love this genre when it's good but it's awful nowadays. Movies, comics, games, literature. Nowadays all of it sucks.
I don't want to watch it suffer and shit out another terrible thing like these comics are shaping out to be.
>>83409142
>NOSTALGIAFAGS XDDDD
Quality argument.
>>83409155
*tips fedora*
If the genre has ran its course, it either needs to die or start creating something good again. The latter seems to be impossible for modern-day horror "writers"

There is something so appealing about this webm, her expression, what she turns into, it's just so lovely and there is even porn of it!

Sturgeon's law. It's always been like this.
Horror is possibly in the worst spot because people are completely desensitized to pretty much every gimmick in the book. So horror at this point just isn't SCARY anymore in the truest sense of the word. But it can still be good as a genre. Say, I liked The Witch.
>>83409284
I like Alien: Isolation, f.ex.
Also the movie The Descent got me good at times.
>>83409311
>Also the movie The Descent got me good at times.
Loved that one too
>>83407295
Celtic mythology really doesn't get used enough for horror stories. I think a lot of things from it are genuinely creepy.
>>83409284
>people are completely desensitized to pretty much every gimmick in the book
If your definition of horror is jumpscares, gore and monster designs then maybe yes. Good suspense build-up always gets to people, that's why Silence of the Lambs is still watchable nowadays unlike Friday the 13th (Yes, I said. I don't care how iconic those movies are, dear Pamela/Jasonfags, they're shit.).
I'm not denying that the past didn't have some godawful horror movies, but it also had some of the best. Nowadays we have awful shit like Slender, Unfriended, Crossed and nothing to balance the scales.
>>83409311
I found both of those boring and mediocre. I don't understand how anyone can find Isolation scary and not just frustrating. Call of Cthulhu was far scarier to me.
>>83409370
Celts are just disturbing in general

Creepypastas are retarded and unfunny, just cringy as fuck garbage.
>Everything was normal but then heard something, I looked around and saw a thing! And the thing looked at me! Spooky!
>>83409387
nah fuck you, Friday is a fun series, and the first 2 are great.
>>83409422
To each their own, then. The only way I can enjoy any of Friday the 13th movies if I pretend that they're over the top and hilarious on purpose like Evil Dead 2 or Hellsing.
>>83406921
>There... really aren't any.
Untrue. Look harder.
>>83409468
>The only way I can enjoy any of Friday the 13th movies if I pretend that they're over the top and hilarious on purpose
they are though. do you think they were trying to make high art or something?
>>83409529
No, I was hoping it would be a genuinely creepy slasher movie like Halloween or Black Christmas not a dark comedy.
>>83409542
>genuinely creepy slasher movie
no such thing
>>83409564
>no such thing
nigga go watch Halloween and Sleepaway Camp

/tg/ had a thread with a guy who fucked a monster like this, only it was also a waifu.
Was scary and cute at the same time
>>83409157
Sounds like you really need to get out more.
>>83409564
Okay, what's your idea of a creepy horror movie, smart guy?
>>83406840
>being a scared little faggot
>>83407069
>written to discourage teen suicide
"Hey kids! Don't kill yourselves, or you'll come back as a ghost, find love and have lots of great sex daily!"
>>83409387
> If your definition of horror is jumpscares
That's why I said gimmicks.
Yes, good filmmaking works but there's two problems: audiences wouldn't be scared at all by a movie like SOTL these days. It's a great movie, but at this point it's not even horror anymore.
And second, the very definition of "scared" is at least partly in the audience's hands. I love movies like Inland Empire, The Witch, Alien, you name it. But these movies don't startle you, right? They're more eerie, or unnerving.
It's a slow burn kind of horror, the movie doesn't pivot around something going WHAM so you jump in your chair. When 90% of the horror audience thinks THAT is scary... that's what scary is.
>>83409564
>talking shit about Black Christmas and Halloween
Motherfucker, you need to shut up. Those have a great atmosphere, were genuinely tense and frightening and were closer to Hitchcock's idea of horror than GORE NUDITY of trashy slasher movies.
>>83409683
>but at this point it's not even horror anymore.
Why not?
It has not one but two really disturbing serial killers, it's very tense, it has a horror-movie atmosphere.
>But these movies don't startle you, right?
Why should they? I'm not 3-year old. They make me feel extremely uneasy and uncomfortable, that's all I expect from horror movies.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dYDxxHrlmUg
This scene is more horrifying to me than what most people nowadays think is horror.
>When 90% of the horror audience
Not to sound elitist, but that audience is what capefags would name "casuals". I bet those are the same people who told me that the ending of Unfriended is the scariest thing they've seen in years.
>>83407018
It's a commercial, so it's probably not mean to scare people shitless.
That's bad for business.

It comes from people on 4chan saying "copypasta" instead of copy paste and then starting creepy threads and seeing the same stories posted. Shut up.
>>83409099
Anon have you ever considered the idea that you may have developed an immunity to fear? This can actually happen. Maybe you watched so much horror nothing behind a screen can actually scare you anymore. Horror can actually desensitize people if exposed for extended periods of time.
>>83406423
Could say the same about western ones.
>Its a monster that hides under your bed

>>83409997
I don't know. Once in a blue moon a movie, tv show or a game gets to me. The problem is that they're mostly old.
>The Rake has a comic now
Can't wait for the edgy yaoi Jeff the Killer comic to eventually come out
>>83410065
I'm bad at remembering the numbers. The usually the ones that have some agent going to another dimension are pretty great. I think you can search that in the tags. There was one in the SCP-90-99 that was like that but I can't remember which it was.
SCP-87 (the stairs) is a classic.
Most of the good ones aren't very spooky. Most of the "spooky" ones aren't very good.
>>83409971
I know where it comes from, doesnt make it any less of a stupid buzzword.

OH NO! THAT HORRIFIC SPIDER MONSTER IS GOING TO shoot me.
>>83410065
097, 093, 610, and 342 are my favorites. Haven't read them in a few years though so YMMV.
>>83410279
087, not 097.
>>83410065
There was the concrete thing that killed you if you didn't look at it. It basically created the whole SCP thing since it was originally stand-alone.
Most of the good ones are just curiosities, like the vending machine that can make anything.
There's one that is actually kind of recent that I like that's a whole in a wall to a pocket dimension that's some kind of haunting caused by an aborted baby. There's a family made of string that's pretty weird too.
>>83410065
939, 523 (not actually that spooky, but the concept is pulled of so well I'll recommend it to you anyways) and the most underrated in my opinion 342
>>83406948
>mfw there's an asian ghost who hides kids during twilight with her giant floppy tits

My favourite one will always be that pizza box that magically makes your favourite kind of pizza whenever you open it.
Just simple, stupid things like that can make SCP pretty cool. But it got ruined pretty quickly from powerlevel wankery and shitty mods.

You're a dummy, dummy.

What was the one where anybody who entered this house thought they were this 30 year old woman named Jane or something that lived there.
And at one point, withough realizing it, the Foundation sent a task force in there only for things to go horribly wrong.
>>83410065
Over the years, all the SCPs have lost their touch, their ability to make shiver or look over my shoulder into the dark corners of the room. They're just le edgy creepy words that don't mean anything.
Except 1981
That fucking entry, even years later, sends a fucking chill down my spine when I read the last transcript. Every time. Fuck, I don't even know what why
>>83410483

I still kind of think that Downpour wasn't that bad. Not great, but there was a good game in there somewhere.
>>83410531
I know I know, it should be cringey, but the buildup somehow makes it work
>>83403690
yeah, I can't look at this and not see that edit of the synthoid woman about to take a dump on some sleeping chick
>>83410065
my favorite one is the log of the guy sent through a portal chamber who found some weird post apocalyptic world where weird giants roamed the countryside and he tried to piece together what had happened to all the humans in case it could potentially happen on Earth too
>>83410718
yeah the one with the different colored mirrors and the weird religion and whatnot. Probably my favorite.
>>83410718
The one with the giants and weird computer files in the alternate dimension? That's my favorite

For you.
Personally, I'm having a wonderful time with creepy podcasts, both fiction (WTNV, Alice Isn't Dead, The Black Tapes, Tanis) and non-fiction (Unexplained).
Admittedly, I could use more non-fiction podcasts in my lineup. Anybody know of any good ones?I still want a goddamn /pod/ board.
>>83408580
more? I am curious.
>>83405146
But that's the problem. It looks cartoony, not spooky or realistic at all.
>>83411432
I know of pseudopod dot org
>>83411432
I couldn't stand Nightvale. It tried way too hard, and clever actually sounded like a radio show.
The kicker, though, was how people kept insisting he was Mexican, then they insisted he was gay, and then when they made those canon, they insisted that the VA couldn't play him anymore because he wasn't gay and Mexican.
So they fired him and hired a gay Mexican to take his role.

What's the one about the weird interdimensional shipwreck? That one was great because it didn't fall into the common newfag trap of giving an ultra-detailed backstory and explanation of the SCP. It was just kinda... There
>>83411492
Thanks for the tip. Though that's horror fiction; I'm looking for more horror/paranormal nonfiction.
Though if you have any narrative paranormal fiction podcasts, I'm okay with that. Ain't nothing like a good narrative.
>>83411557
I'd say that it's definitely gotten toned back from past years and gone back into the paranormal aspect of life.
But, as is always the case, you should never listen to your fandom.

Never stopped anyone before. Saw this in my local library last year.
>>83411833
The thing about creepypasta is that they're generally posted anonymously and without copyright and thus put in the public domain.
That's also the case for SCP, but given how active the community is and how people are given credit, THAT'S where licensing issues would come into play.
