If you’re lucky, you’ll never know about it. Your life will be spent in the bliss that can only come from the ignorance of the dark horrors that scratch and gnaw at the edges of reality. You’ll never hear the dark whispers coming from the closet; never feel the cold chill creeping along your spine. You’ll never pause at a turn in the hallway because you know that if you look down it, you’ll see something that shouldn’t be there. Something that creeps, stalks, and skulks in the shadows. Something that, once it sees you, will never stop coming for you. It won’t come for you when you are sleeping. It wants you to know it’s there. It wants you to hear the relentless sound of its footsteps, the panting of its breath. It wants to smell your fear, to hear your whimper, and to see the horror on your face as it approaches.
If you’ve any sense at all, you won’t try to find it. You’ll never pay attention to the sounds. You won’t try to catch sight of those things that flit by the corner of your eye. Your ignorance will be your shield and your protection. Do not be overly curious; discount the sounds as the quirks of an old house, or the heating system, or any other excuse you can think of. Whatever you do, don’t believe. Because once you believe, they’ll become real. Once you inquire into their existence, they will solidify. And once you finally uncover them for what they are…
They’ll come for you.

I read this then something knocked on my glass door. Glass. Nothing was there. I just clutched my phone to my chest and sat there like, who dat?
… Okie dokie then………
Its really scary its the hous reight
Awesome, so true!! XD
Oh FU-
This is true.
When I moved into my new apartment, everything was fine. As for today, about four months later, there are weird unexplainable noises several times each day… and night. Yesterday I was sure someone or something was crawling on the floor towards my bed.
I’m screwed.
RIP Amanda
Dun dun DUUUUN!
This was very clever :)
Good.
Not great. But good.
I thought that it was alright.
okay pasta is okay.
meh, well written and ok idea, but there are so many of these “they” pastas. The monsters that “come for you” and that you’d better ignore or w/e. I don’t know. It’s an overused concept, I guess. Good effort though. 7/10 for style.
Rule number 1 of creepypasta: never say phrases like “They will come for you (mwahahaha)” unless you want an endless string of WHO WAS THEM comments
It’s too late for me, I’m afraid. It’s why I run out of the bathroom and slam the door shut after flushing. And why I always run up the stairs as if trying to evade some sort of freakish monster chasing me. ):
I guess that it comes…
…
…FROM BEHIND THE WALL! :D

Humper Monkey must have been one of the lucky ones then.
This is untrue. Regardless if you believe its still there. Creeping in the corner wait for you. It creeps on the weak, and when you have your guard down it takes you over and slowly kills you from the inside out.
This can happen to anyone. You think your strong? Think again.
Okay then I\’ll just ignore it like the giant squid that lives in my house.

This one time I was standing in my living room and then a hand touched my shoulder until I turned around and saw no one there, and guess what? I still don’t believe.
I knew this was going to be a ” They’ll find you” or “They’ll come for you” and I thought I would be dissapointed. I definitely was not! Very good pasta! 9/10 Would re-order
Oh perfect. I already should be taking meds for paranoia. Thanks a lot.
first i was like :I then i was like :O then i was like whatever and then i thought some and said :O im going in :I goodbye :’I
I really liked that one, very clever idea.
I always look down halways and see a black shadow at th end of it
Im definatly not doing that again
Hey what was that i saw out the corner of my eye
It’s not a fear of the dark, it’s a fear of what lurks there.
Not so scary, but I’m still going to ignore those noises from the “heater”.
@ Ola Yes, it was only your heater. Quite good creepypasta, but I’m paranoid enough already.
My ignorance was bliss, until you took it.
Thanks.
Haha I guess I’m one of the unlucky ones.
Fear the Darkness

I get that feeling (4th sentence) all the time… but the thing I see out of the corner of my eye sometimes seems friendly. Pretty sure it’s the spirit of a cat. Or just my imagination.
I guess what I’m saying is that I liked this because I can relate to it.

Sounds a hell of a lot like Eternal Darkness to me.
Such delicious pasta… :D I really enjoyed this one.
But then….
WHO WAS HALLWAY?
Holy shit, it’s rare that a ‘pasta actually sends a shiver down my spine anymore… but damned if I didn’t jump upon hearing the dog move in the other room after finishing this.
Fucking dog.
Hello.
As I told in my previous post. The lucky ones are the ones who see. They see my gaping sphincter portal. It is waiting for one so lucky as to gain “access” to this.
Hurry boys.
It waits for you.
Damn…. this wasn’t that scary, but as soon as I finished reading, I could hear footsteps. I dismissed it as my dog, and then my door swung open and I screamed so loudly.
It was my sister. ff.
the more you try to convince yourself those footsteps are the dog, the more it sounds like something that shouldnt be there…
Great meta-writing. Makes you scared about your very own mind.
This creepypasta is so creepy.
I liked this one.
:[ Now i’m not gonna sleep well.
Great, I live in a creaky old house…
Hate you….so much….because the one hallway in my house creeps me out so much cos I think something is gonna peek at me from around the corner |:{ and I tell myself “Channy, you’re just being stupid–there’s nothing there” AND I GET EVEN MORE WIERDED OUT.
So, because I’m fucked anyways….
WHO WAS CREEPER!?
this is from a movie i cant believe no one has said that yet. the movie is actually called “they” http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0283632/. its one of those movies that you laugh at up until the end and then you shit bricks. but srsly when i first watched it was scared of any noise in the dark for like 3 years after shit sucked.
I do it for the lulz, gentlemen.
By the way, since you all are reading this, you’ve obviously failed to ignore me.
YOU ARE ALL FUCKED!!!
crap! just when i was reading the end something touched the back of my neck [my back is to the bathroom door]
i’m not turning around…at all O_o
brix shat!
I shat brix
Maybe they’re multiple CandleJac-
OH SHI-
I thought this was about insanity/psychosis in that it’s only coming after you if you believe in it.
i am a heron. i haev a long neck and i pick fish out of the water w/ my beak. if you dont repost this comment on 10 other pages i will fly into your kitchen tonight and make a mess of your pots and pans
@41
I totally called that if you would direct your attention 34
So I have god powers?
so then…
WHO WAS THING?
if you read the story, then you start beliving. and once you start beliving, they’ll come for you.
well thats just perfect. now theyre going to come?
were they there before and just waiting for me to recognise them?
Hello.
I disagree.
The “lucky” ones will be the ones with the focus and will to see what lies hidden before them.
Ones so “lucky” are far too rare for my liking…
ITS RATS I SAY.
Nahh.. But still, most of those sounds we hear are just coincidence. If anything we just believe its coming after us, like in the story, but its really just our mind conjuring up things. Which has to do with most scary stories you hear id say 40% at least.
That was cool =]
Do you think this counts for when cats randomly stare at things that aren’t there? It’s just cats being weird… I shouldn’t look too hard?
Jeepers.
It was alright… not scary really…
It seems a lackluster Lovecraftian sort to me…
Overall… I’d give it a 5 out of 10.
So yur wit ur honey n ur making out wen the phone rigns. U anser it n the voice is “wut r u doing wit my daughter?” U hang up n tell ur girl. She say “my dad is ded.”
THEN WHO WAS PHONE?
The thing is, ITJ, that they are trying to get in to our reality, and the sounds made are the small manifestations of their unsuccessful attempts. Some belive that reality is based purely on our perception of what reality is. So, if we pay attention to these sounds, then the creatures become real. And then we’re fucked.
That reminds me. You all just lost the game.
I don’t think Mr. Welldone would have written this. He seems, at least to me, to encourage curiosity, not intentional ignorance.
Ooh, very nice ^^
@28: You suck. I was winning and everything.
everyone loses the game.
Did Mr. Welldone write this, by any chance? :]
Who will come for me? And will they bring me cookies? >.<
It’s the things Mr. Welldone tells us to find.
Anyway, I really liked this one, it’s kind of like the Game.
@25
It’s meant to warn you, but by warning you it’s telling you about the fact that they exist. The whole premise of the fear is that the more you fear it, the more have to be afraid of multiplying your fears exponentially. It may try to “warn you” by saying to “ignore it” but the fact is that you have to note its existence to ignore it and noting the existence is what it’s warning you not to do.
THEN WHO WAS HEATER
but seriously this one was great. It feels like it could be true.
I reckon this one’s quite good. It’s like, telling you not to think of it and warning you, but by warning you is making you think and look for it at night?
as i finished reading this i hear my dog walk across the hardwood floor. YUP ITS MY DOG.
Very nice. Leaving the “creepies” up to interpretation is always good – even if trying to intrepret them is the LAST thing you wanna do.
BTW, finished reading this and turned to get outta my chair, and the shadow of my hoodie hanging on the back of the chair cast a weird shadow that looked like it was coming up from underneath some furniture.
Needless to say, brix were shat.
Meh…
So give me something to BELIEEEEEEVVVVVE!!!!!!
So basiclly..”I don’t see it, its not really there.
I don’t hear it, its not really there.”
BUT.
If you heard/sensed something there to begin with, then well, something HAD TO HAVE BEEN THERE IN THE FIRST PLACE for you to even feel that way? so ignorance shouldn’t make it magically disappeaar? O.o
..lol i liked the pasta though, i put off a trip to the loo cos i’ve gotta go by my walk-in closet and down a corridor and round too many corners. ._.
SO they can feed off of my fear? All I can say…bring it!
Yeah.
I’m quite fine not knowing whether or not something’s after me, kthnx >.>
As they say, “Ignorance is a bliss.”
Awesome pasta.
This scared the crap outta me.
Aha perfect!
finally a creepy pasta that is as scary as The Guardian Angel.
BUT WHO WAS…oh wait a minute, if I ask that, won’t they…ooo…well played, sir.
This one is pretty fantast
QUE THE DUN DUN DUUUNNNN!
So, what do all these monsters intend? Just to scare us? Its pretty vauge on their intentions other than ‘coming for us’. Whats it going to do? Kill us? Why? What would that acomplish? To eat us? Slightly more reasonable. To just annoy the hell out of us and make us piss our pants? Those ruddy jackasses.
I see one of those motherfuckers and Im getting my baseball bat.
>.<“
I thought this was eire and well perfected but it strayed from the topic of luck. i loved this though
wow this was fun…. oh shit
b… who was ignorant?
I like this. It is very appropriate for any fan of creepypasta or /x/philiac.
kinda boring
So what you’re saying is that everything that goes bump in the night won’t be real unless i try to see it? Unless i am COMPLETELY ignorant and stubborn it won’t try to get me?…..Well, thats great!
This one was awesome. Frozen Gauntlet approves. (‘-‘ )
ooo lucky im done with the ¨what was that?!><¨ phase. lol
I read this, and right after, my heater made a weird noise that scared the crap out of me.
I mean, it was the heater, right?
OH SHI-
if they prey on fear then don’t puss out
no lie, who ever the hell wrote this is right. or im just paranoid o.o
Ooh.
I liked this one because it has to do with all the things you hear and try to ignore and creep you out anyway.
… eeeeee.
