Part of what makes creepypasta enjoyable for me is immersion. What's the point if you can't believe, even momentarily, that it's real. The unease comes from possibilities. I'm aware of that. But hearing claims of people "seeing", for example, Slenderman "everywhere" gets under one's skin after the 10 billionith time.
