Well Umby, since you asked.

Okay, these are not in any particular order simply because I'll probably change my mind 50 times before this post is over. The stories I'll include here are ones that really had an emotional impact (whether that emtion was fear, happiness, sadness, excitement...) and left an impression after the fact. Here we go!

My Cat - This is a very underrated story on Creepypasta Wiki, but it left an impression on me. It's a simple story that isn't necessarily scary but still accomplishes the task of touching the reader. I recall feeling very sad after reading this one, but sad in a good way. It reminded me of the sensation of loss, whether it be a pet or a person. The narrator does an excellent job of detailing the emotions that accompany the encounter. This short little pasta can still bring on a bit of melancholy if I read it again, and that is something that I both appreciate and admire in writing.

Piggyback - The one that started it all! This is the first story that I ever read on this wiki and the one that kept me clicking for more. It's short but brilliant and delivers in the scares department quite well.

The Disappearance of Ashley, Kansas - Another classic that I discovered very early in my time here. A slightly longer tale than Piggyback, this one showed me that Creepypastas were much more than quick little frights. I read this one a few times over because it was just that good.

My Dead Girlfriend Keeps Messaging Me on Facebook - I came across this one on Youtube. I was listening to it as I drove home from work and it was so damned good that I sat in my parking lot for an extra 5 minutes just to finish it before going up to my apartment. It's creepy as hell but still manages to deliver somewhat of an emotional love story as the narrator recalls his time with his girlfriend when she was alive.

I Met God Today - This is one of the most intelligently written stories I've had the pleasure of reading. For a story that features a conversation between two men on a bus, it makes for one hell of a ride. Clever and powerful, a must read.

Burgrr Entries - Funny, creepy and engaging, this story has it all. It's a long read but it'll keep you locked in. It's creativity is what makes this one work so well.

Room 250 - GreyOwl is one of my favorite writers here and you should check her stories out if you haven't already. This one maintains an amazing mundane tone throughout, which of course makes the ending that much better.

My Brother Died When I Was a Child. He Kept Talking. I Think People Should Know What He Said - This is another that I found through Youtube and simply had to finish before I could move on with my day. Very detailed writing. There are some parts that I thought could improve but over all it's just such a twisted concept that I have to love it!

The Fearless Vampire Killing Brothers - Micropastas are always a roll of the dice. You don't have much room to work with. It takes a writer as brilliant as Matthew "HumboldtLycanthrope" Brockmeyer to fit something this chilling and disturbing into a story that is shorter than some Hallmark cards.

Summer in Texas - A great example of expert story telling. This pasta is written like a novella and has always been an enjoyable story for me to revisit.

Those are the ten that popped into my head. There are many more that I could easily praise, but I based this list on the ones that came right to mind, since I figure if they pop up that quickly, they clearly deserve to be front loaded on this list. Hope you guys take the time to check some of them out if you never have, I think you'll be glad that you did!
