The Tracing

Next time when you’re lying in bed and the moon is new, when you’re at the moment where you’re almost asleep and your eyes are closed…try listening for the sounds. More specifically, sounds that shouldn’t exist in our realm. At this point, you’ll notice the world around you change, but don’t you dare open your eyes or make any movements.

If you lay right where you are, with your eyes closed, you’ll feel something trace a finger, a claw, or perhaps something even worse, across your forehead. The moment it stops tracing, you’ll wake up and it will be morning. Within that new week, you will die.

However, depending on what was traced on your head, you’ll either enter a paradise of a world, or you’ll enter an evil world of torture.

So…do you want to find out what’s on the other side?

ETA: It’s my birthday! But I’m still knocked out with a stomach virus, which is why I was late with the pastas again, sorry =(

  1. Happy friggin’ birthday~! I hope your natural awesomeness kicks in soon to clear our the sickness. Poor dear. Try and enjoy yourself!

  2. WWP: Happy birthday, and I hope your virus clears up soon. :D

    As for the pasta… I really don’t think it would be worth it. o.O I personally wouldn’t want to chance it, although I can see if others would.

    Happy birthday Phone. Maybe your stomach virus will go away within the next few days and you can celebrate your birthday just slightly late. :D

  5. Aspire Aug 2nd 2008

  7. BonerFruit Aug 2nd 2008

    Of course, happy birthday Phone and thanks for keeping the website afloat.

    This pasta, I kinda like.
    Again with the whole, “is it worth it to prove this creepypasta?”

    “A finger, a claw,
    OR SOMETHING WORSE”
    Does anyone else LOL at a interpretation of that?

  9. MooMOo Aug 2nd 2008

    happy b-day !!!

    i had somthing wrong with my tummy once ….i thought i was going to die so i wrote out a will ( i was 7 or 8)

  10. blackneonsharpie Aug 2nd 2008

    at sigma: I didn’t until you mention it. Now I don’t WANT to know what it could possibly be.

    This is one of those rituals that I will NEVER try, unless, of course, I’m suicidal.

    Happy birthday, and I hope you feel better. :D

  11. Foolish Aug 2nd 2008

    A happy happy birthday to ya, WHO WAS PHONE ! I hope it’s filled with all things good n’creepy!

  12. Foolish Aug 2nd 2008

    @Sigma – Good grief. Now I get it. LOL.

    Very good ‘pasta, BTW. Nice work, WWP.

  19. Foolish Aug 3rd 2008

    AUGH. Comments are acting weird.

    I already posted this in the forums, but I’ll say it again. Have a happy, happy birthday, full of all things good n’creepy! FEEL BETTER SOON!

  20. Happy late birthday Phone I hope you feel better. I had a flu once it was bad and I was sick for ages I only got better when I visited CandleJa

  21. Happy birthday Phone!

    Anyway, this pasta wasn’t that believable due to the fact that I always end up in that particular state, except I never feel anything on my forehead.
    That’s right before my lucid dream starts.

  22. Sigma Aug 4th 2008

    Toad #18, exactly.

  23. WWP: sorry to hear you’re still sick. also, happy belated birthday.. though given the circumstances, you should celebrate a week’s worth once you’re better to commemorate your good health thus far and in hopes on many years of great constitution to come!

    i thoroughly enjoy this site. it actually helps me sleep at night while in bed.

  24. oh yeah. that last statement was a bit unclear. i meant to heartily thank you for keeping this site up. when i stop being so broke, i’ll ‘buy you lunch’ one of these days. :3

    Sigma are the Wind beneath my Wings.

  26. Jumbo Shrimp Aug 6th 2008

    So either you go to a paradise world, or just be spit back out here on earth.
    Meh, I’m to lazy to try it.

  27. meowmixkid Aug 13th 2008

    Happy B-Day phone!!!

  28. WHO WAS CLAW?

  31. DJ LoONa Aug 26th 2008

    btw…what if i do open my eyes?…FAIL!

  32. Coconut Milk Sep 1st 2008

    What if I get traced by a penis? Where would I go?

  33. ARGHHH Sep 2nd 2008

    great mickey mouse is now burned into my forehead and i didn’t die, i have to live with it

  34. lally Sep 7th 2008

    this pasta was shit, the solution to save urself: don’t lay awake with ur eyes closed waiting for a claw to trace on ur head when u go to sleep. Close ur eyes firmly and don’t try to keep urself floating between the conscious and unconscious world betweem sleep ^^

  35. shortys roc my sox Oct 1st 2008

    this story was great but why try that if your gonna die and in my head wether i go to heaven or hell is determind by if i belive jesus christ is my savor or if i don’t

  36. Silent Oct 5th 2008

    The question has to be, if everyone who encounters this event dies without fail, then who would there be to pass the legend on?

  37. I would totally open my eyes and like fiought w.e. it is! Then eventually die.

  38. Scholar Oct 20th 2008

    You just described a rather complicated induction to astro projection, doubt a beginner could do it but really this is more of a lucid dream (A dream your aware your asleep in.).

  39. Anonymous Nov 5th 2008

    “More specifically, sounds that shouldn’t exist in our realm.”
    Yeah, that’s really fucking narrowing it down.

  40. Anonymousity x 2 Nov 5th 2008

    What the hell are sounds that “shouldn’t exist in our realm”?

    Like some weird … oh, but we can’t describe them ._.,

  41. bricks Feb 11th 2009

    poor phone. The bacteria just wanted to give you a present, that’s all.

  42. Jay Autumn Mar 12th 2010

    So depending on whats traced on my forehead, even if i do end up living in a paradise, i still only have one week to live??? no way to get out of it?? well that’s just friggen awesome, im going to die anyway, so it doesnt matter even if i open my eyes, im stuffed =(

  43. WHO TRACED FOREHEAD WITH PENIS?

    PEDOBEAR??!!

  44. Icalasari Aug 18th 2010

    Seems like a good Pasta to try if you are going to be dying soon anyways/you REALLY want to be a dick without worrying about being in trouble for more than a week

  45. Now I’m going to do this subconciously and then die. D:
