Took a 7 hour drive with my 70 year-old mom a couple days ago and listened to one of your narrations. My mom: "oh i dont like this. Its too dark" me: "want me to change it? " mom: "no i need to know how it ends"

Any supervisor ever threatens my pay my response would be do that again and I'll quit on the spot. I can't stand dealing with supervisors or employers that treat their employees like crap but couldnt perform our jobs. My supervisor has a certification in being a desk jockey but he knows that he could never do what I do and it would be hard to replace me after 20 years of experience and multiple certifications in fabrication

They don’t have to warn me, so no, a manager talks to me like that I’m gonna hang up the phone and turn around. They can do it their darn self if it’s so important. I’ll block that number and not answer any number I don’t recognize just to spite them. Especially if I had your experience.

11:38 this phone conversation would've had me hanging up and heading back to the office to have a face to face talk with Mark. I don't care if you are the boss you can still get these hands 👊🏿 Poor Tom died for an employer who didn't care about him at all

Bruh really heard a spooky screeching monster and still decided to do the job.
“He has been defeated using the most shameful of all magic….a power shriek.”
Poor bastard never stood a chance. This creature seems to drain power from electronics, cand control sound around it, and to a certain degree control digital recordings of it. Although it could've been possible to escape if he didn't leave his lights on. He might have had enough power in the car vattery otherwise. Instead he became monster chow. Maybe the next expendable reporter will find his phone and not make the same mistakes... Fantastic tale of terror and intrigue. Loved every chilling moment of it! ❤

So, it was a Banshee? And it could control sound, or only its moves were silent? It also seemed to be draining the battery on his phone, so it seems likely it could have drained the car battery as well. Banshees normally wail at their target the day before, right? Also, this one was somehow poisoning the water spring?

I heard this a long time ago but I like this time better, plus, I learned a new word-pusillanimous, thank you! I always wonder how we know what happens to the (dead) protagonist when a story is written in third person. I like to think the monster wrote it.
@Abce-hq6oz
Жыл бұрын
Could be. It was smart enough to just stand there and watch him for a minute, to let him figure out his car won't work and let him feel despair before killing him. Although I think that would also be the monsters death sentence. In almost every creepypasta i heard where the protagonist managed to beat the monster, it was because the monster was playing with its food first.

Sniff...I just love a 'not happy ending' ❤
There is a huge difference between telling and showing. This story is a great example of telling. Hardly any descriptions just a dictation of events happening. Telling is what novice story writers do. Showing is descriptions and feelings intertwined with telling painting a picture of what is happening giving the story depth. Remember a story is not an instruction manual.
