Happy Appy probably ranks as one of my favorite pastas of all time. Not because it was scary, (it wasn't) not because it was written superbly, (it wasn't) and not because it had any amazing twists, because, well, it didn't.

I discovered Creepypasta Wiki a few years ago when I was deployed to Iraq, and it provided me with some of the most amazing time consuming products I could ever imagine. Being deployed isn't the non-stop action sequence that many people think it is. It's actually days of boredom, occasionally broken by brief moments of intense danger.

So, for me, a story like Happy Appy was perfect. It gave me something to look forward to coming back and reading each night. I honestly remember feeling sad when I finished it.

What it lacked in scary, it made up for in campy and corny, but it was done well. Personally, I would have preferred it focus more on just the show, and less about the author being stalked in real life by the show's producer, but still, it was a fun read.
