Recently, a lot of people here have been asking for creepypasta recommendations and advice for finding creepypastas. Since most of you here come from the Fandom app, you may be unfamiliar with the layout of the wiki and its content. Thus, I'm making this post to help fill this knowledge gap.
Quick Lookup
If you want a complete list of all stories on the wiki, go to the Article Listing
And here is a listing of all new stories.
However, while these listings are very useful, they can be difficult and tedious to look through for specific kinds of stories.
Recommended Stories
Fortunately, if you are new to the wiki and unsure where to start, this wiki has a couple listings for recommended stories.
The Suggested Reading category is just what the name implies, a collection of stories determined by the wiki admins to be especially worth reading.
And this listing contains all the stories that have won Pasta of the Month on the wiki.
In addition, our founder, ClericofMadness has published a series of anthologies of stories on the wiki (with permission from each of the authors) entitled We Go Bump. Here are the listings of those stories:
https://creepypasta.fandom.com/wiki/Category%3AWe_Go_Bump
https://creepypasta.fandom.com/wiki/Category%3AWe_Go_Bump_3
(There was a We Go Bump 2, but I'm not sure what happened to the category for it.)
Classic Creepypastas
If you're looking specifically for classic or viral creepypasta stories, we have a couple listings for those too.
The Historical Archive category contains stories from the early days of creepypasta, pre-2011.
If you are interested more specifically in well-known viral creepypastas, such as Slenderman, Slimedog, etc, look under the Memes category.
We also have a category for lost episode stories if you like those.
By Author
This wiki is home to a lot of creative creepypasta writers, and has a couple places to look up stories by specific wiki users.
The Writers' Showcase forum allows users to show off stories they have written. While being promoted in Showcase is not guarantee of quality for a story, the fact that this a place for authors to post links to their proudest works means that the stories showcased tend to be of high quality.
User Stories is a supercategory for stories by the most prolific authors on the wiki. Click the individual subcategories to see the story listings for each author.
By Length
Some people prefer shot, bite-sized creepypastas, often called micropastas. To find these, look under this listing.
Conversely, if you like really long stories, check out this listing.
By Subject Matter
Maybe you have a specific type of story you are into. If you are looking for creepypastas about certain things, check out the Genre Listing. The Genre Listing contains all the categories used to group stories according to their content.
Do you want to read a story about a creepy road trip at night through the woods? Try looking under the Vehicles category or the Nature category. Do you like creepypastas set in hospitals? We have a category for that too. Getting familiar with the various genre categories makes it much easier to narrow down your creepypasta searches to meet specific criteria.
