The Dog’s Lick
A young girl is left home alone with only her dog to protect her. When night approaches, she locks all the doors and tries to lock all the windows, but one won’t close. She decides to leave it unlocked and goes to bed. Her dog takes its customary place under her bed.
In the deep of night she awakens to a dripping sound coming from the bathroom. The girl is too scared to go check so she reaches her hand under the bed. She feels a reassuring lick from her dog and falls back to sleep. She reawakens to the dripping sound, reaches her hand down to the dog where she feels the reassuring lick and falls back to sleep. Once more she awakens to the dripping sound. She reaches her hand down and feels the lick of her dog.
Now curious about the dripping sound, she gets up and slowly walks towards the bathroom, the dripping sound getting louder as she approaches. She reaches the bathroom and turns on the light. She is greeted by a horrific sight; hanging from the shower nozzle is her dog, with its throat slit open and its blood dripping into the bathtub.
Something on the bathroom mirror catches her eye she turns around. Written on the bathroom mirror in her dog’s blood are the words “HUMANS CAN LICK TOO”.

I remember reading a version of this when I was in grade school, except I think the girl was at a slumber party and the murderer killed all the girls except her (why he spared just her, who knows). It freaked me out for days, and I didn’t even have a dog at the time! So for the sake of nostalgia, here you go. Thanks go out to the person who emailed this to me.

Classic.

I’ve always loved this creppypasta, but the end sentence in this sort of ruins the mood.
I think you should take it off to keep us wondering what was under the bed.

*creepypasta

BUT WHO WAS HAND-LICKER?
August 21st, 2008 at 5:39 pm
Dumb bitch couldn’t even tell the difference between me and some human. WTF?
It’s not like the facial structure and tongue are completely different, is it?
Nah, this one is a classic. Silly, but a classic. I still like the version where the dog barks from outside while she’s still got her hand down getting licked, though. Leaves on a slightly more horrifying note.
August 21st, 2008 at 5:53 pm
Funny…
Wait, it’s not supposed to be.
August 21st, 2008 at 7:04 pm
This one I have heard before and it is a classic. It’s more silly then scary though but if I was a little kid I would say it would be scary.

@Dog
You win an Internet. -^_^-

BUT WHO WAS DOG?!
August 21st, 2008 at 9:34 pm
Slumber party nostalgia. It never makes for good creepy. However, it is a classic.
August 21st, 2008 at 10:29 pm
Dude…I read this one in I think …Teen magazine when I was something like 15. Scared me for life, along with the “There were no foot prints in the snow. It was his reflection” one.
August 21st, 2008 at 10:45 pm
I’ve never quite gotten that “There were no foot prints in the snow. It was his reflection” one. It’s such a difficult mistake to make.
August 21st, 2008 at 11:11 pm
I’m with Anon #12. It does seem like a hard to make mistake
August 22nd, 2008 at 2:03 am
Absolute classic. One of my all-time favorites.
August 22nd, 2008 at 4:02 am
I believe the slumber party one is where the girl is left alive because it’s her birthday; written on the wall with what is presumably the other girls blood is something like “Happy Birthday from your local psychopath”.
I love the last sentence, when I first read this a while ago, I shuddered and a chill went down my spine.
This is much better written than the other version I read - there’s also one about a blind woman. She calls her nephew over to sort the dripping out, and he discovers the mauled dog.
I agree with comment #14!
August 22nd, 2008 at 5:15 am
I hate to point this out, but it says “Something on the bathroom mirror catches her eye she turns around”.
I didn’t notice it the first time.
August 22nd, 2008 at 11:10 am
Ahah, my friend told me this story before
Except like she added some little details in, about how the girl had just moved into a new house and she got a whole floor to herself, including the bathroom, but she didn’t like the bathroom so she went and used her parents… And since she was so afraid her parents got her a dog
And supposedly, the dripping went on for like a week…
And the face that she told me that it was a real story and I was seven freaked me out too
xD
August 22nd, 2008 at 11:50 am
When I first heard this story when I was a kid it scared the every living shit out of me. To be honest, it still kinda has that effect.
August 22nd, 2008 at 12:16 pm
Xantherian……..go fetch me a fresh pillow from the bush ….LOL

um creepy!
August 22nd, 2008 at 3:36 pm
I heard this one before, I was like O_O when I heard it. Pretty creepy
August 22nd, 2008 at 4:34 pm
Ahh~ I submitted it~ Hehe…It scared me and made me have nightmares. WWP I read that version.
August 23rd, 2008 at 12:23 am
You can’t have submitted it. I submitted it.
NO, I’M SPARTACUS!
August 23rd, 2008 at 6:50 pm
I’ve heard one where the girl is babysitting two kids and the dog and the murderer got the three and left the sitter, and the note said “Not only a dog can lick your hand at night” O_o
August 24th, 2008 at 11:53 am
I was a wee bit hungry
August 24th, 2008 at 4:13 pm
I think it should be “A CAT IS FINE TOO”…
August 25th, 2008 at 1:18 pm
…so…whoever killed her dog just sat under her bed and kept licking her hand?…LAME!
btw the last two sentences make NO sense…something in the bathroom mirror catches her eye, so she turns around and loox at the bathroom mirror???
plz fix
k thanx
August 28th, 2008 at 5:10 pm
I always thought that the last message meant the girl was supposed to lick back or something, but now relaize that doesnt make sense. So, it all comes toghter now. Yay!
August 31st, 2008 at 12:15 pm
Bad ending in my opinion. This is how I would have ended it.
Written on the bathroom mirror in her dog’s blood are the words “LOLCATS can lick too”
September 1st, 2008 at 5:46 pm
xD
I prefer the one with out the mirror ending.
I lyke cliffhangers.
September 2nd, 2008 at 12:16 am
Man, I first heard this one when I was a kid. (Aaah, slumber parties.) Scared the shit out of me.
Now, I’m 18 and it STILL creeps me out! I have a nice little poodle who sleeps by me at night and occasionally licks me. Plus there’s a bathroom right off my bedroom… O_O
Crap, there goes tonight’s sleep. XD
September 8th, 2008 at 4:33 pm
omg my dog licks my hand like that and i here dripping in the bathroom next 2 my room crap theres a person under my bed licking my hand at night
September 11th, 2008 at 11:48 pm
*creepy!*
I’m laying on my bed in the dark right now!
One of my dogs sleeps in the bed, the other sleeps in a cage in the bedroom.
But still creepy!!

@ DJ LoONa
Idk why, but your comments always manage to piss me off. Stop complaining, or use your time and money to pay for the site that you seem not to like :/.
September 12th, 2008 at 7:52 pm
@ uncle anon
sorry but i really don’t care if what i say pisses you off
it’s called an opinion and i can complain if i want; if you don’t like it well then i’m sorry…just omit my comment from your memory
it really isn’t that hard.
l8er
September 14th, 2008 at 4:44 am
sorry uncle anon
i guess that response was kind of rude of me
i just don’t see why an opinion i have can ‘manage to piss you off’
i’ll try and be a little less…me
and well i guess that’s it…=\
sorry again
September 16th, 2008 at 9:17 am
@ Uncle Anon,
this is stupid so some one has an opinnion and you just get pissed off and argue it were supossed 2 post comentes bout if we like the story or not if DJLo0Na doesn’t like a part of the story thats his opinnion. what if i said Anon is a really wierd name are u gonna get mad it me 4 haveing an opinnion
September 19th, 2008 at 10:15 am
I agree with Uncle Anon… And if you’re going to dis a story, at least take the time to write your words out.
September 25th, 2008 at 1:09 am
No, dude, it’s scary because of what it implies is waiting for you after you find the note in blood.
I freaked the fuck out. I think the ending, although a little messed up wording wise, was amazing. It fucked me up just because it’s so menacing. Someone was watching you, knowing that’s what you did, and planned this out just to make it especially horrifying. Putting your trust in the psychopath under your bed that’s pretending to be your dog, licking your hand, and then finding the dog you trusted to protect you dead in the bathroom and knowing the person who killed it and posed as it was waiting just outside the door for you…
No matter what age you are, that’s fucked.
September 26th, 2008 at 2:39 pm
aww poor doggy
this is a really really creepy story i wonder what happens too the girl next?
October 15th, 2008 at 6:26 pm
creeps me right the fuck out
October 22nd, 2008 at 7:26 pm
Haha, this one. I heard it a few times in elementary school. Which I guess makes it my first creepypasta.
October 26th, 2008 at 3:59 pm
that wasn’t what the note said! this is what it said “Wash your hands more, please.”
October 29th, 2008 at 5:30 pm
@ fwaa
October 29th, 2008 at 5:30 pm
omk lol
October 29th, 2008 at 6:07 pm
o.O Holly shit. Now this, I liked. Very much so. One of my favorite creepypastas now.
November 1st, 2008 at 4:08 am
Um for the record,the last paragraph does in fact make sense..
She sees something ONNN the bathroom mirror out the corner of her eye,so she turns around fully TO LOOK AT IT to see the writing properly.
ft.
November 1st, 2008 at 4:13 am
last paragraph about mirror makes absolute sense you fkn retards
November 20th, 2008 at 10:58 pm
what would be funny is if the mirror said BUT WHO WAS HAND LICKER? also, 3 possible ending
1. couldnt he just grab her ankle when she got off the bed
2. it was her dad and he got a her a new dog and the old one was a robot
3. shes dumb and looked under the bed and says “I didn’t know that”
2nd doesnt make sense but neither does the guy not killing her
