2 farmer doods build a scarecrow, "Harold," and talk shit about it all the time

1 day, Harold gets up and starts pacing around

Farmers get spooked

They leave but one of them goes back because they left equipment there

Doesn't come back

Eventually other farmer goes back

Sees scarecrow smiling and spreading the skin of first farmer on the roof

The newer versions don't have the same images as the originals; they've been modified because of exposure considerations -- argument was they interfered with the investigations.

I have it on good authority that the original images were pre-programmed to implant certain defensive mechanisms against malign images, and that the people who authorized the change bear more than a passing resemblance to same images.

Yes, the Defiance Response-Embodiment Program (DREP). The rumors about that started in the 80s -- the idea that there was an overarching (beneficial) conspiracy to ready the population for the horrors to come. But if you subscribe to that, ultimately, you're subscribing to the idea of the Alternative Timestream Theory -- that a defeated world, in a last gasp of innovative hope, shouted back in time across the wide gulf of branched alternative decision pathways to warn an earlier, better-state world of what would come if they didn't fight the Scourge at its source -- to train the children of that earlier, unsullied reality to resist the monsters lurking beneath their beds or hidden in the yellow-husk corn fields of their farmsteads or embedded as malignant lingerers in closets across the globe. And that, my brother, may be a bridge of belief too far. Or {glances up from drink, meeting your eyes}, perhaps it's exactly right.

The Drum is based on a story first collected in Victorian writer Lucy Clifford's "Anyhow Stories." Basically a gypsy girl manipulates two kids into behaving so badly that their mother not only abandons them, but sends in her place a 'new mother' "with glass eyes, and a wooden tail that thumped on the floor."

Unfortunately it's less of a story; more a documentary. The reports in those volumes--and the attendant public outcry--were the impetus for the formation of the original Light Squad. People were tired of being afraid; of being terrorized. After so much carnage, finally, they fought back.

I am kind of mad IRL about it because I was looking for some spooooky reads there and on nosleep a few nights ago, and the latter has gone to pure reddit shit too. Nothing but gasbags who think they are the cumchildren of Lovecraft and Jonathan Safran Foer writing 10 part cliffhanger serials.

Personally I think the best SCPs are ones that are vaguely unsettling without being ott

I had an idea once for a postage stamp that compels whoever controls the package it's affixed to to deliver the parcel, no matter the cost

Obviously I'm tooting my own horn, but that's the sort of thing I think is more interesting--not SUPERMAN THE CTHULU FROM HOMESTUCK

scp-173? Yeah

Although I think it's actually lifted from some Dr Who shit originally

But the same thing has happened with creepypasta

Back when I was in college, the ED creepypasta page was just a series of 200-500 word bits of terror--just little one-liners designed to unsettle the guy reading them on the other edge of the screen

Now they all seem to be dumb 'lost episode' or 'spoopy video game' or 'omg slenderman' shit

And they're all over written. The secret to a good creepypasta is brevity

For example, I think something like, idk, this (which I just threw together in 2 minutes) is creepier than that shit.

"Turn around.

Big mistake. I just moved closer while your back was turned."
