I was bored. I was super duper bored. It was January 4th, and my new years resolution was to finish ALL my video games by today. Now that I have done that, I had no new things to play. All of the sudden, I got an e-mail on my phone. I opened it.
The e-mail had no words in the “from” bar at the top. The subject was “Get old bootleg SNES cartridges! Only in today’s e-auction!” Intrigued at the sound of new video games, I went to the e-auction.
The first few games I had no clue what they were, so I sort of got bored watching the screen. I was about to close the site, when I saw the text saying “Bootleg Super Mario World” pop up. I decided to get it, and won.
2 weeks later, I got the Super Mario World cartridge in the mail. I was, once again intrigued when I saw most of the label was torn off of the cartridge. The only letters not torn off were: U, E, R, M, R, and D. I immediately put all the letters together and tried to think of something. After a while, I came up with one word: MURDER.
Obviously, I still put in the cartridge, something I still regret to this day. Not that I can feel depressed anymore. After all, doesn’t the word on the cartridge say it all? I was going to stop here, but I suppose I can tell you how my fate came to be.
After I put the cartridge in, the game started. Everything looked normal, except that the hills and the clouds had a slight redish tinge to them. I opened the file selection, and there was a save file on the game already. The name of the file was…
SAVE FILE 1!
I bet you weren’t expecting that.
Anyways, I loaded the file, and went to the level with the first yoshi in it. I was walking, and as you may expect, I have played super mario world some form or another, and I know that this wasn’t here. There was A small red hill, with a very dark red pipe on the top. The first thing somebody would think would be “Something in a video game can’t hurt me. It’s just a video game!” Those people can keep believing that.
At that time, I believed that too. so I went down the pipe. I thought it would be some bootleg-glitch secret. But something was wrong when I was falling for around 30 seconds. When I hit the ground, Bowser was there watching me. I was seriously freaked, so I lunged for the power button. all of the sudden, text popped up on the screen saing “You wouldn’t want to do that, would you?” and the power button was deactivated.
Mario and Bowser were on screen, glaring straight at me. More text popped up saying “You want a suprise? Here!” And bowser pulled out a portal gun. (LOL :P) He blasted the floor under me and then he blasted above the lava. You can probably figure out what happened next.
To this day, I am a boo, guarding Bowser Castle. My home is in the 9th room. If any explorer finds my diary, share my story with the world.

eh… 1/10. wasn’t really creepy
This wasn’t creepy at all…….
LOL i love the ending! I actually liked the story and i thought the ending was clever.. “To this day, i am a boo…”
^w^
Really, getting turned into something in the game, now where have I heard that before?
This story is funny because it is crappy. Why are people complaining about how not scary and crappy it is? I’m pretty sure it’s supposed to be crappy and the author clearly did not intend for this to be scary.
How can people read “super duper bored” and “bowser pulled out a portal gun. (LOL :P )” and start judging the story like it’s a serious horror?
Good storyline. but a bit too short and the ending made it so unbelievable. i mean the ending left me WTFing
Why the hell is this on the main site? This should be on crappypasta because this sucks!
Had potential to be scary, had potential to be funny, tried both and ultimately failed.
do a creepy pasta of sonic!
@bill
Can YOU understand what you wrote?
Hahaha.. I guess this is intentionally supposed to be a parody? If not, this is trolling at its finest.
This isnt scarey. this is what nintendo actually does to reduce game costs and discourage pirates. it would have been nice if you took the story youre writing even a LITTLE seriously. As it is, its got a “oooh, look at what just happened, arent I SO creepy?” vibe to it. Like a valley girl trying to be goth.
A portal gun… REALLY!!! THATS THE BEST YOU CAN THINK OF, REALLY C’MON MAN!!!! THERE IS A REAL HAUNTED SUPER MARIO 64 STORY ON YOUTUBE, YOU COULD HAVE USED THAT!!!! That part with the portal gun killed this pasta. -100,000/10
Have you posted this on crappypasta?Because it belongs there.Plus,I regret reading the WHOLE thing!
Thank u for wasting 7 minutes of my life…never gonna get that back. e-e
That was horrible
Guys, this is a PARODY video! And I got fucking scared. I was at the part that said “‘You want a suprise? Here!'” Right as I saw the word “here” for some reason my screan went to the other Tab I had up XD I THOUGHT THE CUMPUTER WAS READING MY MIND AND A POP OUT WAS GOING TO GO OFF!!! XD
Sorry, This isnt a video.
It started out as a good story with the murder on the cartridge, but it just got silly and unbelieable. I guess he ran out of time to make this a good story? Idk.
I know its so scary i peed mah pants.
Weird and scary
I dont get it something simaler happend but he had killed peach and mario
i did not rely understand it…..
Portal Gun? Really, Since when did Valve partner up with Nintendo?
Stolen and the ending kinda sucked
I felt dead inside after reading this. -3/10.
*Throws tomatoes and other fruits at the author in disgust*
its funny how pepole don’t realize that this is a joke. even though its in the parodypasta section.
no
Thanks for killing all my cells
Started off decent, if a little cliche, and then completely bombed once the portal gun came up. Fucking Christ this was horrible.
It could have turned into a nice dish…. but… the end.. It saddens me.
