Can I ask a question? Has there EVER been a Creepypasta that used Satan related cliches that was actually good? Because I can't seem to think of one. It seems like there's a rule of thumb: If a pasta uses Satan related cliches, then you know it's going to be bad. If there was a bit more subtlety or if the story used another type of demonic creature besides Satan, such as these, then I think it might have made the story a bit more tolerable. Granted it's not the worst pasta I've read, but it still doesn't save the story from being terrible. Oh and the Satan cliches somehow manage to overshadow the other cliches (i.e the protaganist vowing never to watch the show again, the protaganist saying "You won't believe me", etc.) With this being a Lost Episode pasta in a Journal/Diary entry format, I instantly thought of 1999. While I do have my fair share of issues with it (i.e the pasta going on for a bit too long, the over the top Mr. Bear character, etc) they weren't really infuriating enough to ruin the pasta for me. If you want a Lost Episode pasta that does the whole "Character slowly becomes more paranoid or evil" thing done a million times better, read Miss Mosaic. Even though the protaganist themselves doesn't make the transformation, the title character, Miss Mosaic, does and the transition is done smoothly and plays out very naturally.
