I write most of my pastas with a first person perspective. I have just found it to be much simpler and I am more able in getting my point across when I write in first person.

For example, in first person, developing characters (in my opinion) is pretty manageable. There is also the advantage of being able to tell what our main character is thinking and feeling in a straighforward manner. This can be used to punch up the scare factor or build dramatic tension.
