We all remember slenderman (which came from a slightly less problematic message board, something awful rest in piss lowtax you piece of shit), right? And then there was a syfy anthology series &#8212; i think, i&#8217;m not a journalist and googling this, okay &#8212; that had an episode based on candle cove. This is the first time, however, that a prestigious production house has taken on internet lore, and it boasts an impressive cast too. Like, how the fuck did a 20 year old director making a movie about a creepy pasta land Oscar nominated Chiwetel Ejiofor and Renate Reinsve, idek. Skills, baby.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, ONTD, what is your favorite creepypasta?
