Creepypasta Wiki talk:Deleted Page/Jeff the Killer/@comment-23973243-20131001204508/@comment-23973098-20131001205931

The popularity of the story is, and always has been, the image that goes with it. Without that it's just a subpar pasta that needs a fact checker like a man needs water. The other thing it has going for it is that it appeals to the 'bullied' crowd, which there are many of in this wikia.

But I agree, not what I was expecting either when I read it.
