User blog comment:Creepy Thomas O./How do you define creepy?/@comment-25170312-20150727173515

Anything can be creepy. It's all in how it's presented. You have to put ideas into the reader's head and make them nervous about what's happening. If you are too forthcoming about it then there is nothing to get nervous about. Atmosphere is just as important on exposition. You can make something normal seem creepy just by how you describe it. The atmosphere also needs to be consistent throughout, or increase towards the end. Also, if you can convince the reader that the characters in the story are throuroughly creeped out, then that works too. I'm not sure if any of this helps, since I haven't read your pastas. I'll have to check 'em out.
