I love it. It also reminds me of Higurashi in a way (the VNs though).

I think the pills themselves aren't demonic at all. Just biologically destructive and can cause hallucinations and paranoia, and that's when the Satanic elements come into play. Revelation666, DCLXVI (although that's subtle), Dr. Hail A. Stan, the Satanic emblem...as well as the wording of Necrosleep.net, I feel these helped fuel and inspire Reed's hallucinations, hence why they are prevalent through the story. It could've been something else. Mysterious men who watch you for example. One question that could be asked is if Necrosleep was indeed the work of a Satanic cult or an insane organization which understood how to easily nail a victim, and if the latter, why. These are best thought of without an official answer.

Now I dunno how he came up with the human fetus in the cartoon, but it sort of worked as foreshadowing for how Reed's undoing would be like. Also that fear of going outside and being bothered by the light is possibly the parasites manipulating him into not going into the heat of the sun where they can probably die off.

All in all, it lived up to being unsettling and it's one creepypasta that I can stop and think about rather than shrug off and continue to the next one. I definitely liked it.
