- Creepypastas are enough to keep many of you up at night.
But the events described in these tales
have gone far beyond just campfire stories
for the digital age.
Many people claim that their encounters
in these stories are real events,
events that make some lose sleep,
and others go completely insane.

Here are the 10 Freakiest Creepypastas Ever Told, Part Four.
(scary electronic music)
Number 10 is Sonic.exe.
A man named Tom received a Sonic the Hedgehog video game
in the mail from a friend of his named Kyle.
Kyle warned him that it was in his best interest
not to boot it up and that he should destroy it immediately.
As a huge Sonic fan, Tom ignored the warning
and launched the video game.
Thinking that it was just a modified version of the game,
he soon noticed something was very wrong.
Sonic's eyes were now black with red irises
and he had blood dripping from them.
The background and atmosphere of the game
had lots of gore as well as dead animals everywhere.
Sonic also kept killing other characters while saying,
"I am God."
no matter what happened, the player's character always died
and he had to restart.
Tomorrow actually tried at one point to throw out the game
but was haunted by his own bleeding Sonic plushie.
Number nine is the Weeping Angel.
Similar to the villains in the television show, Doctor Who,
stone statues can be unsettlingly realistic.
While trying to find their perfect home
for their growing family,
a couple expecting their first child toured a house
with some weird angel statues in the garden.
As they moved about,
the statues seemed to be in different positions
each time that they looked at them.
Nervous, they rejected that potential home
and moved on to another.
Only to find similar statues
to the first house that they looked at.
Becoming suspicious, the husband noticed
that the agent had vanished
and tried to escape the house with his wife.
He tried calling the agent but there was no response.
As they ran down the street, they realized that the angels
were actually chasing them.
Since then, the only thing that existed of the couple
was a single police report that read that the couple
ended up dead.
Number eight is Squidward's Suicide.
Told by a former intern at Nickelodeon Studios,
this creepypasta tells the story of an unaired episode
of SpongeBob SquarePants that the intern had found.
Instead of a kid's cartoon show, he and the crew with him
are treated to an unsettling episode
featuring the character, Squidward.
For some unknown reason, everyone in the episode
seemed to have red, realistic looking eyes.
It soon cuts to Squidward sitting on a bedside crying
over a failed concert that he had to put on.
So overwhelmed by this along with the terrible negative
feedback that he had received, he then takes his own life
with a shotgun in full gory detail.
Then, a single still frame of a dead child mangled
on the road is shown.
Adding to the horror,
a faint voice is cut into the animation
and the sound of someone laughing can be heard.
(evil laughter)
Number seven is Penpal.
Penpal is a series of tales about a kindergarten student
who releases a balloon with a letter asking for a reply.
An activity he participated in with the rest of his class.
But as other kids' letters came back from the people
who found theirs,
the narrator noticed that his fails to return.
That is until one day his teacher hands him a letter
that begins a chain of unsettling events.
It turns out that the boy's letter was found by a creepy man
who proceeds to stalk him mercilessly.
Even living in a crawl space
under the narrator's house for awhile.
Years later, the stalker kidnaps Josh,
the boy's best friend.
Dyes Josh's hair the same color as the narrator's
and then kills Josh's sister.
He then manipulates Josh's dad into unknowingly burying
both the stalker and Josh
so that they can be together forever.
Number six is Psychosis.
Psychosis tells the story of John,
a man who becomes increasingly paranoid
due to a lack of physically seeing another person
for a long time.
He tries to convince his friends to come over and visit.
However, everyone seems to either decline or go offline.
He eventually gets a video call from a friend
but something seems off.
He begins to believe that the electronics in his life
are being controlled by something called the Entity.
Which can take them over whenever it wants.
He also believes everyone who communicates with him
is lying in an attempt to get him to leave his apartment
and become possessed like they are.
Because the Entity can also take over people
through their eyes.
In an a desperate move to stop the Entity from taking him,
John blinds himself.
In the end, we learn that the Entity is in fact real
and has taken over the doctor who is in fact seeing him.
Number five is Ted the Caver.
Written as journal entries,
Ted the Caver tells of a man named Ted who finds a cave
with a small passage that he can't get through.
He decides to widen the passage so that he can explore it
and spends several days with a friend using hammers
to widen the hole just enough to enter it.
Eventually, they make their way into the cave.
However, the deeper that they get into the tunnel,
the more things get eerie and strange noises
and feelings haunt them.
One of the men even finds a strange symbol claiming
that it resembles something from the Blair Witch Project.
Soon after, they encounter what's believed to be
some sort of unknown creature that tries to attack them.
Abandoning the cave,
the eerie feeling seems to follow Ted home and he later
decides that he has to go back to the cave to conquer it.
That was his last entry.
Number four are the Portraits.
After spending the day hunting in a massive forest,
a hunter realizes that he's lost track of time
and it's quickly getting dark out.
Not knowing which path will get him home safely,
and large foliage making it difficult to navigate,
he searches around until he finds a cabin
in a small clearing with a door open.
After looking in it, he decides to spend the night there
and explain himself to the owner later.
The hunter enters a room and sits on a bed only to find
several incredibly detailed portraits of people
with their faces twisted into expressions
of hatred and malice hanging on the wall.
All of which seem to be staring directly at him.
Ignoring them, he falls asleep.
But when he wakes up, there's sunlight beaming in
and he finds that there are no paintings, only windows.
Number three is You'll Never Even Know.
After hearing his neighbor bragging about how perfect
their new Smart Home Security System is,
a young college student hacks into it
and becomes able to see much of their house
through the installed cameras.
However, he ends up seeing much more than he bargained for
when a basement camera captures a gray humanoid blob
that moves about the house causing mischief like a curse
and haunting the family that lives there.
Though the boy can see it, the people physically present
can never quite seem to.
Always being in a different room or asleep
when it's present.
He tries to bring attention to it but ends up attracting
the ghostly figure's attention instead.
The boy then realizes the entity only appeared to him
when the system was integrated with his own
and begins to disconnect himself from the technology.
However, although he attempts to ignore what he witnessed,
the humanoid figure begins haunting him.
Number two is the Dream of Every Dentist.
10 dentists participate in a meeting organized by a man
in black and are told that if they tell the man running it
about the dream that they get $5,000 each.
At first they're very hesitant,
explaining that he won't understand
even if they told him about the dream.
One eventually agrees and explains that they all have
the same dream about weaving a needle and thread
through a human's head but get frustrated when it always
ends up inside due to their being seven holes,
the two eyes, two ears, two nostrils, and one mouth.
To their delight,
the man reveals his stenographer who had been there
recording the whole conversation has no mouth.
The dentists are delighted and relieved
to see that there are only six holes now.
However, that's when the man takes out a real
needle and thread and says, "let's see if it works."
And number one is Bedtime.
Soon after his older brother switches rooms,
an eight year old boy has a room of his very own.
Unfortunately, he also gets
an unexpected invisible roommate.
Sleeping on the top bunk, the boy often wakes up
to the sound of the creature on the lower bunk
thrashing about as if having a tantrum.
When he tells his parents about this, they're dismissive.
So he removes the mattress from the bottom bunk
and places a desk in its place.
That night he awakens to find the invisible entity
in his own bed with him.
As he tries to slip out of the seemingly
sleeping invisible creature's grasp,
it suddenly wakes up and tries to grab him.
Clawing away relentlessly.
Fighting back, he manages to escape
and runs into his parents' room.
Soon after, he convinces his parents to swap rooms with him.
That's when immediately after his parents decide
that it's time to move out.
