WHAT CURSE IMAGE RONALD BONER 2 SPEED RUNES FOR MY

@kameronharrington5478

Жыл бұрын

I was traumatized in my preteens by the 'peak' of early internet evils (2006-2008) - it was anything goes, especially the porn + gore. All those days of trying to watch cute animal videos after school but basically any video website that wasnt YT was absolutely unhinged with porn banner ads/pop ups and everyone is linking shock videos/jump scares/virus links. I think I was maybe 11 or 12 when the shock porn fad went around, I was wayy too young for shit like 2G1C/Blue Waffle/lemon party/etc. So when I came across Creepypastas, it was thrilling and most of the cursed images would leave a stain on my brain for weeks. Smile Dog was the worst one for me, but it wasn't the original husky/window - it was that super saturated, red/orange dog face with a bloody snout + oversized human teeth. I could taste blood in my mouth after looking at it. I clicked away because it freaked me out, but I was SO freaked out that I had to click on it again and read the story with it (which wasnt the original one either, there was definitley two major versions of Smile.jpg) then I showed my 8 yr old brother and he immediately ran out of the room crying - his reaction made me more scared of Smile Dog + also realized I was being a jerk, I'll never forget that. But as I got older, more desensitized, and less gullible - I was morbidly curious and I'd intentionally go to parts of the Internet just to scare myself. 15 or 16, I revisited my 'shock vid' days and ended up digging through real gore and all the edgy shock subreddits. Because Creepypasta stopped being creepy. Even now, it still gives me the chills but all these cursed image Creepypastas look even more fake/photoshopped now in 2023. Now, nobody will fall for even the most convincing 'fake' picture because now its "oh thats definitely AI art, look at the fingers" or they can just reverse search it and immediately find out the context - but in 2008, not many people had access to advanced image editing so the cursed images that did come out of that could seriously deliver a lot of spooks. I learned to edit pics a few years too late, otherwise I'd have tried to join the game (but I did go to town making memes). And there was so much anonymity you couldn't fact check or find sources for most of them. It was more open ended than ever. You cant even post a video of someone vomiting cinnamon or lighting their farts on fire now without being demonetized or shadowbanned.

Me, sipping my tea listening: Sacrow: On tumblr Me: *nearly chokes on my tea*

Honestly, I love this trip down memory lane. The older creepypastas used to scare me as a child.

This deserves so much more attention, thank you for making this video, and taking the time to read and elaborate on every subject.

Fun fact, recently when i was in the Psych ward, one of the staffs (he didnt work in my unit i think he was a technition for lights or something) looked like the man from This Man, and everytime he came by, he filled be with dread and o felt so bad because he waa probably nice

Wait,,, why were you in the psych ward????

The new cellphone photo definitely spooked me, any story that brings in mundane elements like everyday objects, being at home, sleeping, or being at school are the creepiest!

The story satellite images is based on the Stephen King story called “The Sun Dog” look it up. It’s about a kid who gets a Polaroid camera and as he takes pictures it’s the same image of a dog and a fence and as each picture is taken the creature prepares to attack the one taking the photo..

It’s fun to see how many people down here are recalling how damn scary some of these stories were because they were written by 12 year olds for 12 year olds and they were 12 at the time. I remember getting seriously freaked out by Jeff the Killer as a kid then when I heard it as an adult I was like… wow. That was scary?

"This Man" Has a movie coming out, finally! With freaking NICK CAGE.

Ooh the Janice.JPG one interested me. I'm a forensic science student, and we are not allowed to delete ANY evidence. Police never take the photos, we do. And people can tell when photos have been deleted due to file names. But overall a very interesting story, I enjoyed it!

It interested me because of the fnaf music

the goofy ass transitions have genuinely been enough to desensitize me to the jeff the killer image. like i was still having to cover my screen every time i saw it until now 😭 /pos great video though!! i love that you covered some ones without images that are still image based too because there was so many i never heard of before which isnt a common occurrence for me. hell i hadnt even heard about anomaly on tier 1! :0

I remember getting really scared by many of these images as a child, so I took a deep dive into horror and forcibly desensitized myself to it. The only fears I haven't shaken yet are falling, small venomous stinging/biting animals, and being totally alone.

I actually really like the weird old woman baby being his sister (my first guess was illigitemete child). Abandonment of "deformed" babies was common in the old days and it's really sympathic of the monster.

The magic behind good creepypastas is rather simple in theory with two foundational blocks: First, the story should be something one would/could post on a throwaway account. Makes it more believable and, hence, way creepier. Second, the more relatable, the stronger the effect of a given story. Not a lot of people would relate to a haunted mansion type scenario. But a shadow in the corner of your eye cast by creepy object no.#1893072 is gonna have some effect on the reader for sure. This includes creepy pictures that haunt you in your mind.

i disagree with the first thing. i think posting a story on an existing active account makes it more believable

I think a vital factor on why older creepypastas and urban myths were so scary is because they just happen out of the blue to completely innocent people, some family who moved to a house suddenly gets tormented by a really bored demon and people who just find things that aren't common that hold those curses. This weird randomness is what mainly scared me, that it could happen if someone in my house brought something that they found somewhere and then wiping out everyone

Further adding, the image accompanying Red Moon is directly taken from Apollo 18, it's a still frame of a motion scene where 2 astronauts on the moon are being hunted by insectoid creatures on the moon in a lost/recovered film style.

As a kid, I wouldn't be able to look at the smile dog imagine without becoming absolutely terrified. It was probably the only creelypasta image that genuinely horrified little me so much. It's funny being able to stare at it now knowing how scary I thought it was.

Thank you for splitting these into chapters I wish more iceberg/compilation videos did this. Alot of the times I want to go back in the video so I can further search certain topics. Something small but it much appreciated!!

Jeff's image still gets me. I remember being 14, on my laptop doing some projects. I was trying to look something up and I guess the link someone sent me was a prank because it was just the Jeff The Killer image. I immediately started crying, and I was too scared to look at my screen to close it out and had to shut my laptop and let it die.

I always just assumed that the origin of the smile dog image was that it was just a heavily edited pic of the author's dog.

'The Painting' really reminds me of this book called 'The Witches' by Roald Dahl and there's a story told by the main character's grandmother near the beginning about this girl who gets trapped in a painting of a farmhouse. her name was Solveg, and she was given an apple from a witch (the witches disguise themselves as young ladies) and then mysteriously disappeared into the painting. each day the painting changes as she lives her life: one day she could be feeding the ducks or be inside the farmhouse. years go by, and the girl gets older until one day she just disappears from the painting altogether, back to the way it was before she disappeared. it's a pretty chilling story and we never know what happened to her.

I have a fear of being watched from the window too. I had the same nightmare about it everyday for months, I live on the 5th floor so it made it absolutely frightening and ridiculous at the same time.

fell asleep listening to this and had a dream that i took a photo class but it had twisted games in it and my friend died from a staircase disappearing behind him making him fall to his death just thought i’d share

What a fantastic video. I am in my late 40s, but love creepypastas and SCPs. We never had anything like that in the 80s, just playing spotlight, holding seances and walking around abandoned houses. Check the camera and Aonomaly are the very best scary images I have ever seen.

I remember writing a creepypasta when I was a kid, and it sucked lol I was proud of it when I wrote it, but looking back it was not the best thing I've ever written. It was about a dad bringing his daughter in after being in the snow all day. He bathed her, got her some hot chocolate, and made sure she was nice and warm before they headed to bed. She couldn't sleep, so she wanted to sleep in the dad's bed. In the middle of the night, he awoke in fear because he had no daughter. The ending was the little girl being found by someone on their doorstep with a pillow in her hand, crying and saying how cold she is. Now that I'm an adult, it's obvious the wanting to write horror shit never left me, because I'm trying to write a comic with horror elements in it. I love scary stuff so much.

I remember when I was younger and first seeing the classic Jeff picture, and to this day it gives me chills. Something about it is just so off putting, It's really hard for me to explain but just the way it was photoshopped and created always gives me the spooks haha. I really love this iceberg video about a bunch of the image based creepypastas, I get so much nostalgia from all the classic pastas and intrigue from all the ones I'm not familiar with.

I recently drew Jeff the killer in a maid outfit from a dare and the image of him just makes me laugh now.

After watching the whole vid, tonight all these creepypastas are gonna have a collab in my dreams.

57:00 as an SCP nerd I just wanted to point out that the story is an SCP-esque take on Diogenes countering Plato’s definition of man as a featherless biped. Diogenes plucked a chicken, brought it to Plato and exclaimed “Look, I have brought you a man!”

as a kid smile dog used to scare me so bad i'd stay up all night paralyzed with fear, but as an adult i find him so cool looking i wanna get him tattooed someday lol :)

Aw hell nah, whyd bro leave that girl painting one on for so long. I swear that shit changed for a moment and THEN he explains what the creepy pasta said about it changing

In the victorian era, family photos with dead relatives was incredibly common

20:13 I have this fear too. Especially at night, one time I took a picture out of my window at around 11:30 pm and I was so scared to check and see if anything I didnt want to see would be in it.

blue screens are genuinely terrifying af. for example, you're listening to music at night, and suddenly you hear a loud BRRRRR. it's practically a jumpscare, especially when the sound happens to be particularly loud for whatever reason. BSODs were especially unpleasant back in the day when they were more raw and pixelated, and now the Win 10 one isn't nearly as scary as those earlier ones, especially considering that frowny face lol

The image has metadata related to a photography camera (of a brand I cant remember) on it, meaning its definitely very possible its of a real place, as its very, very, VERY hard to put metadata like that into a image created with something like photoshop & make it look accurate to whatever camera metadata your trying to imitate, plus the image has been narrowed down to possibly around 2012ish, but nothing else so far

"The Girl In The Drawing" is an animated GIF I've seen prior to 2006 I think. It was more or less slowly changing into a creepy "AI like" deformed face, intended for jumpscare (there were no AI in those days but people knew how to distort faces in some creative ways sometimes). Dunno if the GIF was derived from this creepypasta or the inverse, or the original photo was used to create it. Anyway, I've never thought to see it again since so long! 🥴
