Sonic.exe is funny

[ginger468 47]

Freaking hilarious i couldn't stop i mean people actually found this scary?  HOW?  This pasta is redicoulos and overall filled with such stupid cliches.  First time i read this i was laughing my ass off off the fact on how stupid it really was and yet it has fame and popularity espicially with so much better creepypastas out there and this one is said to be one of the best?  The more i write about it kinda makes me angry. What do you think of sonic exe to spooky 4 u or a possible troll pasta?  Put your opion down in the comments.

lol that was such a bad story. "Fun is Infinite" was a better horror story than Sonic.exe could ever be, and that's just a single picture

[Celtore 2,770]

"The sky had darkened, the title emblem was rusted and ruined, the SEGA 1991 was now instead SEGA 666, and the water had turned red, like blood, except it looked hyper-realistic"

 

Crappy story, loads of cliche's, beyond-idiot protagonist and insanely overrated. Read something better.

[Manman20x6 359]

I like how the protagonist is more distressed by the deaths of fictional characters than by the fact that his best friend might have been killed.

 

I also like all the mentions of "hyper-realistic blood".

 

The best part, however, is the sequel, where it is revealed that the monster is an alien from another dimension who became a fan of Sonic and decided to kill Sonic haters.

Sonic.exe is to me an embodiment of everything wrong with Creepypastas now (at least the gaming related ones). So poorly written that it makes Cupcakes look like a F. Scott Fitzgerald book by comparison. The protagonist is so unlikably stupid it's not even funny. Too much emphasis on how to make it look scary instead of how to make it feel scary. So cliche I don't even want to bother pointing out. And a "horror" game that relies on jumpscares rather than building a truly scary atmosphere.

 

"11/10 i kep my lites on all time"

 

Yeah, no, go and read HP Lovecraft instead.

Sonic.exe has to be possibly THE WORST creepypasta. It doesn't even try to be scary. It's funny how some people are scared by it. (I mean, Fluttershy wouldn't be scared by this stuff). 

A creepypasta I found more unnerving rather than scary was the Russian Sleep Experiment. That is a little creepy if you ask me. I've not read too many creepypastas, but out of the ones I have read Sonic.exe is the worst by far.

[Photon Jet 5,491]

Sonic.EXE is now a joke compared to the others. There are so many clones of him, it ain't even funny. Seriously, it does grind my gears on how many clones there are.

 

All it takes is to pick up a random character, paint it's eyes red and black and let it's name end with .EXE. After that, boom. Scary story. That's it.

Considering which season fluttershy you mean, S1 would be scared of it, S1 not much, but as it goes further maybe not. So you really can't say what she would and would not be afraid of.

But i've listened to nearly 100 creepypasta's in my lifetime, while some were bad, others were very good.

[ChikaChan 7,323]

Sonic exe actually got me into watching other creepypasta's it got me curious after watching it anyway    

[LeonShi500 155]

A good, not great, creepypasta that became much more popular than it should have.

Seriously, the "I AM GOD" thing at the end had my laughing my butt off. Even the Tails Doll is scarier than that bloody Sonic recolor.

We really need to get rid of all of this "hyper-realistic" garbage, though. It's become the most annoying cliche in creepypastas. That and the whole .EXE thing also.

... This must be the worst creepy pasta. Even the game was terrible. I mean, there are LOADS of creepy pastas out there. This one was the least scary ones. Actually, it's not even scary at all. The MARIO creepy pasta is better than this.

Though Luna game was the scariest for me

As some have said, you can't avoid cliche things in stories, but its okay at some points, but not throughout the whole story.

[Lyra's Pants 154]

Flash 10 years back, Sonic.exe probably would've unnerved me, but instead of challenging the reader to question the fear of the unknown or dealing with psychological horror, it just becomes a total gorefest even during the title sequence. Let's count the many things that are wrong with this creepypasta.

 

1. Fun fact, did you know Tom is a big fan of Sonic the Hedgehog? Oh, maybe he already told you a billion times already.

 

2. Tom deliberately ignores Kyle's (Let's just call him that) letter telling him that this game is not to be trusted and to dispose of it as quickly as possible. Some friend Tom is.

 

3. Tom impulsively pops the disc into his computer, seemingly without any regard for an Eldritch Abomination wannabe breaking free, or more believably, the threat of a virus or someone stealing his personal information. I seriously hope the average Sonic fan isn't this stupid.

 

4. Tom is somehow able to remember the exact details of a split screen image. I sure wish I had an eidetic memory like his.

 

5. If you're able to remember 666 Satanic crap, hyper-realistic blood, Sonic's bloody eyes, etc, then it must be too specific to be a glitch. Somehow, I take back what I said about wanting Tom's photographic memory. I prefer not having the common sense of a dodo undergoing a lobotomy.

 

6. Only then when Robotnik's a selectable character, Tom gets suspicious about this game's origins. Late to the punchline, are we?

 

7. Pixellated Kefka laugh? Really? Sounds do not have pixels.

 

8. Spelling/grammar issues ahoy. "Growing feel of dread, "noticing," "I picked File 1 and chose Tails and when I selected and got started." If you truly care about your story and want it to be beloved by millions, at least have the courtesy to proofread your story.

 

9. Blood and violence alone is not scary. They work best as accessories to the main scare in a story, not the main scare itself. If that were the case, then Happy Wheels would be nightmare fuel incarnate.

 

10. I understand that Tom's supposed to be the audience surrogate, but does he really have to show that much grief for the suffering of fictional characters in a non-canon Sonic game? I know a well-written character can feel real to a person and can elicit feelings such as sympathy or hatred, but if Tom were to be written realistically, he wouldn't prioritize Tails, Knuckles, and Robotnik over his friend.

 

11. No sense of progression whatsoever. Slight differences may occur in the story (Knuckles is more confrontation than the rest and Robotnik runs down a flight of stairs), but they all end up horribly murdered by the Sonic abomination.

 

12. Hyper-realistic scares are hyper-realistically scary! Seriously, the delivery of such a cliche in this story is forced! "His eyes are wide and black and once again crying blood (Which also looked hyper-realistic)." It's as though the author is saying, "Hey, did I mention his blood is hyper-realistic too! Guys, it's scary! I know because I see it all the time in Creepypasta! So, boo! Hyper-realistic skeletons hyper-realistically bleeding hyper-realistic blood! Does that give you nightmares? Guys, where are you going? Guys?"

 

13. "I AM GOD."

 

Joke's on you, I'm an atheist.

 

14. "This Sonic was a monster, a pure evil, sadistic, all-powerful, nightmarish, demented monster... and all of his victims, including Tails, Knuckles, Robotnik and possibly Kyle, are just his little toys, and the game is the very gateway into his chaotic, nightmarish world and the very Hell his victims are trapped in."

 

Do you eat purple prose for dinner and melodrama for dessert? The Sonic characters aren't in any profound suffering! None of this is canon! What you should really be worried about is the well-being of your friend! He seemed pretty traumatized to me. Perhaps you could lend a helping hand and comfort him? Would calling a therapist for both you and him suffice? No? Okay then, there is no hope for you.

 

15. "Ready for Round 2, Tom?"

 

A sequel. Lord help us all.

 

16. "I turned around to see where the voice came from, and what I saw made me scream...

      Sitting on my bed... staring right at me...

... Was a Sonic plushie, smiling with bloodstains under its eyes."

 

That sounds adorable! I want a Sonic.exe plushie right now! I wonder if eBay or Craigslist is selling any...

 

A good creepypasta blurs the line between reality and fantasy. It engages the reader and challenges him or her to ponder if the threat detailed in the story has even the slightest modicum of truth to it. Even though the concept of the subject may come off as too fantastical for some readers, it must be presented in a way that is realistic, believable, and insightful. Sonic.exe has nothing in common with a good creepypasta.

This creepypasta is a modification of the original "masterpiece," and fixes the issues originally presented.

 

It saddens me that people seem to be more intrigued in mindless fluff like Sonic.exe or Jeff the Killer rather than something engaging like Psychosis, NoEnd House, Bedtime, or The Devil Game.

This is one if the many cases where seen all sorts of inspirations from the Creepypasta without actually reading the source material. The game is the main thing I've seen for this one and...it seems rather boring to me. This and the details I have heard, it all seems over the top to the point of comedic effect, something that a lot of Creepypastas seem to do unintentionally. I guess I just cannot take a Sonic related horror story seriously.

[Maurice AKA Phan. Sonic 153]

WAS? Ahem... You mean is the most popular fan inspiring creepypasta ever.

Tails.exe:And no one would believe us if you said Lord X,aka Sonic.exe, would take the world at the end of the year.

Tails....anyway, I know where its heading, and Tails.exe just said it. But that's an eventual situation.

[Sonic Shimmer 4,132]

Most of these video game creepypastas are pretty ridiculous. Why wouldn't you just switch the game off?

Because it causes my adrenaline to rush, especially if you can save the characters in the creepy games.

I guess, but surely the guy playing would realise something is wrong when the game starts calling him by his real name?

[Fritzy 1,691]

Sonic.exe is poorly written garbage nothing more than edgelord stuff and the author threw a tantrum when it was moved to trollpasta.
