Magnitude 6.1 at around 5PM earlier. Lasted for only 30 seconds. I hope everyone is safe. I can't imagine being near the epicenter with that strength. I'm still shaking thinking about it. 😔

Note: Log Ten, specifically. You'll see why if you dare to read it, especially since humans were already desperate for interaction after almost all the women were wiped out during the apocalypse.

And no, as much as revolting it is, I don't find it a good story. There are a lot of details that bother me and I picked up nothing even after reading it. The backstory's essence I read multiple times and I learned nothing meaningful other than pure shock (Rape is good? What???).

P.S. Yes. yes. Some of these have cliches that would make one groan. I admit half of them did. For me, it is about the way the author uses tropes and how they could craft a compelling story while still abiding by some rules.

1. PSYCHOSIS
Consistently my best since I first read it in 2015. It warrants a second read, leaving one to notice the small pebbles of information that hint at what is truly happening behind the scenes. Would you believe the author, or would you rather dismiss him as a loon?

2. PENPAL
A series of accounts that starts off with the typical waking up at night type of story. It builds up to a story filled with dread and tragedy, one that anyone (and I mean, ANYONE) could tell. The threat is real and faceless throughout most of the story.

3. TED THE CAVER
It is a breathtaking read with Ted's spelunking intricately detailed so the average readers can experience the same hardships he went through. It manages to employ primal fears to perceive an unknown threat that could be anywhere. The ending is perfect. No words.

4. THE DIONAEA HOUSE
As some of the readers have noted, some of the emails are written unrealistically. Yet this is a riveting piece, keeping your interest to read everything and piece together the mystery before the blog owner's friend does. Think about what this means.

5. NO END HOUSE
Haunted houses are popular tourist attractions. Once in a while, there may be rewards. One can only sympathize with David as he experiences how his own fears are used against him to break his sanity. At the end, there truly is no escape to NoEnd House.

6. ANNIE96 IS TYPING...
One can feel the helplessness of the situation, no matter how supernatural and dangerous it looks. Who could be the entity standing on Annie's garden? We only have her word on it, yet could the last few messages mean something that was not mentioned?

7. THE SEER OF POSSIBILITIES
When you follow an order, do you think of the possible repercussions? This is a story of seemingly insignificant events building up to one major consequence. After this, it is essential to answer the simple question before proceeding: Why?

8. THREE FRIENDS DINER
It starts off on a shaky foot, but the middle act onwards is a great ride. The protagonist's description is enough to picture the scenes in one's mind, especially when things start to go wrong.

9. ANANSI'S GOATMAN STORY
Too much swearing, but at least a partly honest account. Originally from a 4chan paranormal thread post, it tells the story of bizarre events surrounding a camping trip. It brings the reader to the eyes of the author, sharing with them his own paranoia.

10. PLOT HOLES
The spelling and grammatical errors, as well as the crafting can be bothersome. It is a story that you leaves you wondering how some things were possible. The ending - may be a Hand Wave for some - delivers an effective killing blow. Good of you to notice, huh?

11. MR. WIDEMOUTH
We all have those Furby-like friends when we were children and we would play with them to pass the time. In this case, however, it is a subversion and a possible warning. It draws a good representation of malicious strangers who act nice yet intend to harm.

12. KISARAGI STATION
A popular 2ch thread about Hasumi, a girl (I presume) lost in the middle of an unknown train station. Short, but enough to keep one wanting to reach the end. What if you woke up in the middle of nowhere? Most likely, you will never return.

13. TULPA
Have you ever wanted to have a double that you can talk to when you are bored? We all have them, yet not everyone can project them. It is a good story on multiple personas as well as the conflict of who is the dominating one. How much of you is still you?

14. FUNNYMOUTH
It is a weird compilation of chatroom messages revolving around the aptly named "troll." While some of us brush them off when they pop up, we never know why they do their things and who are they behind the text. It is like a deep web story before they were popular.

15. ABANDONED BY DISNEY
Big companies are bound to have conspiracies to their name. Mowgli's Palace is part of them, as it houses a greater evil within. One thinks, why would they hide it? There are things that are better left in the dark. So, watch what you Google next time.

16. DEAR ABBY
Although the final letter was far-fetched, it gives the reader agood sense of what happens inside a stalker's mind. Lust and obsession are prominent throughout his words. It will terrify you just as it did Abby Morton. You wouldn't want to be on either side.

17. PORTRAITS
Short, sweet, and packs a decent punch. It gives the minimum amount details, leaving the reader to amplify the horror on their own. How did the hunter end up? Why did things happen the way they did? There are many interpretations and you should make one yourself.

18. GATEWAY OF THE MIND
Speaking with God or any Higher Being has been one of the greatest desires of humans. What would it take to reach that point? One must lose everything. And the way this is told shows that there are some desires that are rather left unfulfilled.

19. AUTOPILOT
With the many problems people face in their lives, the mundane things become part of their routine -- tasks to be done that warrant no second thought. The best part of this story is how probable it is to happen to anyone. Will you still go with the flow after this?

20. ANOMALY
A publisher is sent a photo collection by an individual who kept them because of their "anomalies." There are 14 real-life photos (two doctored) with stories one will find chilling. It is a mix of reality and fiction that will unsettle the reader until the end.

[The Best Twenty - Creepypastas I Read]
I know. These "lists" should've been done away with and locked up in a chest a long time ago, but I have yet to see some of the entries in my list being discussed widely. Those I've mentioned might get to be posted on my Facebook page too.

And these are just my opinions, as well as the ones I have read. If there is anything I haven't mentioned, then I have yet to read it. Most of these are creepypastas or r/nosleep stories and the less-known ones outnumber the popular ones... I think.

Hello! Jamie here.
Haven't been Tweeting or posting in quite a long time. A lot has happened with my life. Too personal to share, so to speak. But I've been shifting my focus to internet horror stories recently and I thought I' make a list and discuss my thoughts for each one.

It's almost April 1. I wonder what I'll post on that day...?
I'm 20k words into my second book! This is actually happening. There was a time when I thought I'd never be able to write a book, let alone 2. Now I'm doing all the things. Self high five.

Think of this. What if we were all destined to die of natural causes, that the people we see die by being killed or by accident are things that we only see from our persepective? And if we are to die not by sickness on that day, we actually shift between timelines?

So, there goes my laptop monitor... Ugh...
Don't assume time traveling can go perfectly. It never does. The first thing you compromise when you time travel is your own age.

All the story intros in a nutshell: "Sorry for the length." It's terrifying so far, what with the narrator being a child when he experienced the events. 😀

Reading "Pen Pal" right now. This kid makes me anxious.

Recently joined Reddit because of a certain hashtag. Ah, well. At least I have a valid excuse now, oui? 😉
I like this #ManilaEncounters hashtag. I finally get to see Filipino Twitterature becoming relevant (at least for horror/supernatural, huge emphasis on that). It's a good way to practice telling your story within the 280-char limit.

Nighttime. You were traveling to your call center job at Ortigas. You never noticed something different in the sky until the clouds cleared up. In the moon's place is a giant bird fluttering in full glory.
You froze, unsure whether to scream or remain silent.

A young boy lies covered under the sheet.
"Alakazam!"
He unveils a banana stalk resting on the table where the boy had been. The crowd roars in applause. Majestic!
'Twas so loud that it drowned his cries as his guts were being feasted upon in the backstage.
