@lizking2006 Milk and bread for the attraction of house hobs. Toasted cheese and bread for the appeasement of wood sprites. Vegetable batteries for satnav gremlins.

Even at the furthest border of Barrowcross, you come across abandoned barns, emptied enterprises. Building reduced to a skeleton as if by some unseen curse coming from the moors. – #MattAdams, 1980 https://t.co/hhZGmbIkrW

@TheSacredIsle @catvincent @azrael2393 @paulychilds My issue with creepypasta is that it often lends itself to the corporate. One of my reactions at watching the HBO documentary on the teens ‘inspired to kill by Slenderman’ was: “Oh loves, don’t kill for something so easily co-opted.” I am an odd bastard.

@paulychilds @TheSacredIsle @azrael2393 To me, it more often than not, bad cover versions of classics by The Beatles that are passed off as original tunes. The Oasis of folklore if you like.

@catvincent @TheSacredIsle @azrael2393 @paulychilds It is shoddy. Most things made from Slender are shoddy. Most creepypasta is. It lends itself to co-option with over-eagerness of a starving dog.
