These are iconic, and fairly original. I really appreciate these classic short but sweet stories, that just are what they are, nothing more nothing less. The monster leaves a lot up to the imagination, as it's origin and purpose are left unclear, (I doubt it's God). It reminds me a lot of the Shaye Saint John series, something I don't recommend to those who are afraid of the uncanny valley, which The Expressionless directly plays upon. Our fear of lifeless visages, and what if they were lively, what is the intent or extent of them?

Another note I want to make is, this and other creepypasta have something going for it, imagery. Just a little something to make it more believable. These are never perfectly fitting, though, as in this case the lack of blood and razor sharp spike teeth. Yet, granted, this image in particular fits too well with the context of the story, to the point you can't really think it being for something else. Gateway of the Mind's footage far from matched it's materiel, but the artistry definitely resembled self mutilation. The Expressionless is closer to representing the story, almost as close as Barbie.Avi's mysterious footage (or purpose). It's a solid story all and all, not really groundbreaking, but an interesting piece, that's worth note. 7/10
