User blog:Umbrello/Holder series

I'm really confused about the Holder series. There are so many and they even have their own category, and yet they make no sense and most are poorly written or riddled with cliches. I mean, why does it say that you can go into any mental hospital or half-way house anywhere in the world and the person at the front desk will be some kind of magical weirdo with secret information. Technically, you could do every trial in the same place. I can understand why everything after the first paragraph of each one could be interesting to some people, but that first paragraph ruins the whole thing. It's just silly. And are they even written by the same person? The writing is totally inconsistent between each one. I'm just baffled by the existence of these pastas, even moreso than regular ritual pastas which are themselves confounding. Can anyone explain to me why these pastas haven't been laughed out of existence?
