Personally, I don't want to read amateur novels when I'm looking for a decent creepypasta. That's what new Creepypasta's seem to be though; amateur novels that just happen to delve in "creepy" or "horror genre". You can't even call most of them slightly creepy... Some of them would be good as short movies with proper ambient soundtrack and lighting though.

Then again, I might be expecting too much. Writing proper mature / psychological horror is incredibly difficult; as a horror addict, I've watched tons of movies, played countless of games, read "ghost stories", urban legends, real life horror... It's hard for me to find that type of Creepypasta "original" anymore.
