As time marches on, standards change like animation can't be used to market toys or pc games have to run at a good 60 fps and there are standards for (of course) creepypasta. Let me explain, before, stories like Jeff the Killer were acceptable but later on, people learned how bad of a creepypasta was, now we have stories like Normal Porn for Normal People, The Dating Game and countless others. Now let's see some of them: 1st standard: Just check the Creepy Cliches article; 2nd standard: For beginners, try to avoid these types of creepypasta (I'm not saying like don't ever post these ever, I'm just saying they're just hard to write correctly); Pokemon, Lost Episode, Ritual, Sonic (Just avoid this one like it is the fucking plague, but if you want to, be my guest), IRL Pastas, and Documentary; 3rd standard: Gaming: Don't overuse blood and gore, it just kills the creepiness factor, also, try not to make the characters look creepy, especially the protagonist (A lot of Sonic pastas do this, try your best to avoid it); 4th standard: Lost Episodes: Try to avoid hyper-realistic eyes, that can easily ruin the feel of the story, something that the Goosebumps Lost Episode creepypasta did was that it made it seem like it was an actual episode; Standard 5: Creating a Creature: If you are creating a creepypasta monster, try to avoid using these: a monster that only appears in the dark and it hates the day, hearing an ungodly screech in a corridor, seeing only a pair of eyes in the distance, and finally, try not to make it seem like you have taken a picture when you are being attacked by said monster. And that is part 1!
