The Forgotten Vending Machine
There is a village somewhere in England that has not been inhabited for over 20 years. It has long since been forgotten off of most maps, and only has one road in and out of it. If you manage to find it, it will seem a peaceable enough place, the derelict buildings being overgrown and nature taking back the land for herself. However somewhere within the village is a vending machine which still has power. it will still have it’s original look and sell ordinary brands of drink (though with 20 year old packaging) however the one at the very bottom will be marked “E”. Pay only in 10p pieces to buy this drink.
Before drinking the mysterious beverage, peer inside the can to check it’s colour (do not try to pour some out. it will refuse to leave the can despite any vigorous shaking you may attempt). If it is green in color, drink heartily, as it will give you an unnaturally long lifespan and good luck in everything you do. If it is red, however, drinking it will spread a horrific pestilence over you, claiming one of your senses every 10 years after the date that you first imbibed.
People have obviously run out of mysterious objects to include in creepypasta.
The fact it’s about a mysterious vending machine just amuses me [=
See, here’s a ritual creepypasta I can get behind… although I always do like the “bad things happen to good people for no reason whatsoever” idea, this one was pretty well handled. Simple and effective.
Souris, the same thing crossed my mind when I was writing out the title… but eh, I still like it.
THEN WHO WAS SOFT DRINK PRODUCER?
Honestly, enough with the mysterious villages.
What about the village people? Do they drink from the soda machine?
Oops, I’m an idiot.
And if the mystery beverage is yellow in color and of musky scent, it has probably been consumed and recycled already.
and who was town
I need that green drink. NEED it.
/my luck is terrible
I can’t wait for the one about the demonic iPod.
I’ve got a load of old 10pence coins, let’s test it, road trip anyone?
And if the drink is brown and tastes of an all natural blend of 23 different flavors…you hit the wrong button.
if the vending machine is 20 years old then it will not accept current 10p pieces. They changed the size of them some years ago.
If you plan on looking for this village make sure to buy some old 10p pieces from a coin collector.
Can we buy more than one?
Easy ritual is easy.
Does that mean that even if you ingest the red drink, you’ll still live 50 more years at least?
Or does it mean you’ll be losing senses from beyond the grave?
Yay good thing my grandpa collected coins lets make a lil break in mwuahahah.Or why don’t we just smash the fricking machine and take all the drinks that come out worked for me with cola wending machine every time.
The first thing I thought was “What?! they have Ecstazy in machines?!”
@ Toad
Correct me if I’m wrong, but I think there already is.
lol, vending machines. I MEAN, OMG, SCARY!
Hi!
What do you do with it if it’s red?
umg, let teh bawdies hit teh flore
THEN WHO WAS “E”?
Weird story, I wasn’t quite fond of it.
coke is good
What if you were like, 100, and you drank the red, you probably wouldn’t be alive long enough to lose a limb anyway… haha
@ Xantherian
Please, for the love of all that is creepy, be wrong.
haha number 11 your hillarious.
If the color of the drink is pink, you will be cured of diarrhea illness for the rest of your life.
It’s seems we are running out of mysterious objects to curse. A vending machine?
1. i lol’d
2. if the drink is green more than likely it’s because it’s been rotting in a can in a vending machine of a ghost town for 20 years…just trippin’ on expired soda.
3. i think the people from this town moved to that Blanche place in France. hehe
The green one reminds me of ‘slurm’ from Futurama…
I like that fact that if its red it will take one of your senses every 10 years.. thats kind of all.
lol @ toad
I’m never drinking fruit punch again…
I’ve actually been to that village.:D
I don’t really like this one either, as there’s an almost certain chance of you coming out well from it. As long as you aren’t colourblind, you will either get the long lifespan, or you will see red liquid, toss it, and just go back to normal. A good one of these types of Pastas would have a good chance of you somehow screwing up the ritual/whatever and supernatually fucking yourself over because of it.
Oh, and at WHO WAS PHONE, I just read the FAQ. I realise that I criticise alot of these pastas, but I hope you’re not interpreting it as me complaining about them. I’m just giving my two cents here, so please don’t take offense or anything to my criticisms. Thanks, again, for the many sleepless nights from this site!
What a good tale.
Would anyone care from some of this red- uh, strawberry drink?
Why not just break into it? Or keep putting in money until you get a green? This pasta is just too beatable.
Ok, but what if it’s orange? Or dark purple?
a vending machine of evil oh noes
Oh, I get it. The machine gives you a possessed version of Mountain Dew.
So… what if you obtain the red drink, only drink a sip and not the whole thing, and you’re one of those people that are just curious and wants to see if it works?
Does only drinking a sip still count as drinking the whole thing?
And it’s normally hard to see inside of a can.. the color of the drink, I mean. Dark. Couldn’t you get something to suck a sample out and then pour it out to see the color? :/
And I wonder if giving it to someone else and having them drink it would have the same effect..
And if you drink the one marked Red Bull, it’ll give you wiiiiiiiiiiiings!!!
LOL! Anon E. Mouse… Hahaha, that was funny.
Anyways
The only thing demonic about vending machines is the way my package of chips always gets stuck in them. Grr.
Hey Pew Pew Laser Gun, I am color blind. And I’m sure if I ever went to this town I’d screw it all up, lol. This pasta was fairly good, I liked the atmosphere and the prize and the punishment are pretty good too.
:/ Hm this ones ok although I really like the concept prehaps a diffrent setting would have been nice ….The nagain if it’s 20 years old I don’t see it hiding in your base ment at 7 at night.
Do you have to drink it? What happens if you buy 2 and drink 2 greens, or better yet a red then a green?
Hmmm…Vending machines luff me, once after gym, me and my friends were all thirsty , but I only had a dollar at the moment, so I went to get a bottle of water out of a vending machine with the dollar, and he gave me 4 FUCKING BOTTLES!! XDD just enough for me and my friends
Nice pasta, btw. XD
But what if you just don’t drink it?
…
What does it taste like?
just get the regular mountain dew.
not the CODE RED one.
the only good mountain dew is voltage
there, i said it
Its not bad, pretty good really just that…well if you get the red drink just dont drink it. If they added say…a penalty for not drinking it or you have to pass it one to someone in said days it would be better.
But in the end its very good
that stupid vending machine stole my money
Why “E”? Why not something else?
This sounds like a story you’d write for a state writing test in highschool.
The other day I had to take one, and one of the prompts you could choose was “Write a story with the title The Open Window, The hidden shoebox, or the missing letter”
E-can ala Megaman. LOL
Megaman, E-can, got it already?
A village?
With a soft-drink machine?
Retarded.
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaait a sec. How would anyone know you got an “unusually long life span” if the drinks are only 20 yeras old? Wouldn’t it have made more sense if it were a well or something?
*Head explodes*
Hold on a sec. How would anyone know you got an “unusually long life span” if the drinks are only 20 yeras old? Wouldn’t it have made more sense if it were a well or something?
*Head explodes*
I wonder if it tastes good. o:
Thanks for the warning, bro.
what happened to the villagers?
Good observation GIR.
I guess since it’s an old village then 20 years may seem like an unnatural lifespan as they don’t have today’s … medical technology?
-Head implodes- D:
WARNING (aka Moral of the Story): Do not attempt this if you are colour-blind.
In my opinion, they couldn’t have given the drink a worse name. ‘E’? Why not just call it ‘Meth’ or ‘Crack’? Seriously.

mountain dew vs mountain dew code red?
i’d suppose if the drink was red then you could chuck it, and if the liquid wont come out of the can, how can you drink it
i bought 3 of the green ones…
the villagers all lived unnaturaly long, buying a whole bunch of green sodas… I MEAN… MR.WELLDONE THE JIG IS UP
It’s true, it’s all true. I went to the town ten years ago, drank the red liquid and lost my sense of decorum. Now I can laugh at other people’s misfortune without feeling bad about it later.
im truly disappointed. this pasta was copied from a favorite site of mine:
http://thekingofwolves.webs.com/index.htm#111597760
the fact that nobody else noticed is sad and now i have lost a lot of respect for you guys
-thecountofkrakow
My copy of sense and sensibility is gone. Damn you, foul red Pepsi. Damn you to hell.
this pastas gone off!
asdfghjkl: It could be able to use any 10p, using magic to tell. And if not, then just grind down chunks of metal to be about the same weight and size
Wow. This was just about as bad as Chef Boyardee.
DO THE DEW!
REGULAR DEW = WONG RIFE AND RUCK
CODE RED DEW = OH SHIT
Great, I’ve already drank the red one… probably should have read more.
If it doesn’t pour out despite how vigorously you shake it, how exactly are you supposed to drink it? And seriously, ritual pasta about a haunted soda can? Come on now…
