Gjoberdik
In Gjoberdik, a small fisherman’s village in the country of Bulgaria, on the dawn of January the first everyone closes their curtains and hold their breath for half a minute. Hours after the craze of midnight’s celebrations, children look questioning at their worried parents, but can not help to shiver in the embrace of their shaking parents.
One can hear the sound of bells being struck exactly 25 times last year, in this short timespan. The nearest church however, is over 32 miles away. You will find no one out on the streets in these faithful 30 seconds, and even the birds will stop whistling.
Some have gone out of their houses, roaring boldly in disbelief of this century old tradition. On the first sunset of this year, two people gambled their fate in the very first rays of sunlight.
The next dawn, the bells will be struck 27 times.
Gjoberdik,


i dont get it…
the number of times the bells rings means number of people it’s killed
The bell tolls for everyone who died by not heeding the tradition.
HAHAHAHAHA! i win
Is it alright if I pronounced this as Jobber Dick in my head?
Probably. It all depends on what you think ‘Jobber’ means.
Maybe it’s Candlejack, though I’m not sure if he owns a be
It would have been cooler if it had been counting down instead.
I’m from Bulgaria, and there’s no such village here. The name doesn’t even sound Bulgarian :/
Nice pasta though.
Neither does Anon
Well, that’s different. Here we just settle for a dark haired man being the first to enter the house on New Year’s Day to avert bad luck. Whatever works for you, I guess.
maybe that church just has an abnormally LOUD bell.
Nice pasta, although I’ m from Bulgaria and, sadly, there is no such place here. Also the name isn’t Bulgarian, should be Gioberdikovo or something
Gjoberdik sounds more like Norwegian or Danish. XD
Oh, I see someone noticed my bell. That’s always good to know.
Hey everyone! Look, it’s Candleja
when is it ever implied that they ever died? They could still be alive and well. They only “gambled their fate”. It is uncertain what happened next. Why do people always jump the gun and think someone died?
this is creepypasta… You wouldn’t be expecting nice little happy endings here
u can suck a gjober dick LOLLOOOLOLOLOL
Haha, I saw this in a joke thread once. ‘Twas funny.
I really like this. Although the ending kinda makes no sense….
Fuckin’ sucks…
There’s nothing to this. Just another fail “ritual” pasta.
What happens when the bell tolls 30 times? Does it matter? Does the whole village explode? LOL, that would suck.
Sunset is not sunrise.
OH, YOU DON’T SAY?!
Everytime someone dies the bell is struck one more time, also, the name sounds like a typo from hell.
I’m not even going to try to pronounce the name of this..
