Before we define creepypasta, let’s first touch on the聽portmanteau copypasta. The term copypasta is believed to have been coined around 2006 by 4chan communities and describes stories that were copied and pasted through forums about miscellaneous topics鈥攕imilar to the 1990s/early 2000s trend of sending chain emails.

Creepypasta, the most popular subgenre within the copypasta medium, generally refers to short horror stories about urban legends or unsettling fake local stories. They typically聽lack any聽disclaimers from the original author, which would help to clarify whether the post is fact or fiction, and often include familiar local details that further blur that line. Creepypastas are told using a variety of forms and styles, and due to the inherent community nature of internet forums, can even be interactive.

Original creepypastas involved mostly blocks of text or a picture with a caption (as with the original Slender Man mythos). While some creepypastas are told in the more removed, third-person style of an official government report, most creepypastas have a first-person narrator. Often users will privately collaborate on a story and build on the original post in comments, which can make the stories seem even scarier and more convincing for uninvolved readers who assume there are a bunch of strangers online who all know (and can corroborate) the same eerie tale.

As internet technology has improved in quality and become more easily accessible in the decade since 肠谤别别辫测辫补蝉迟补鈥檚 origins, the newer stories can include even more elaborate details and more convincing photo or video 鈥�evidence,鈥� whereas older creepypastas were generally short and vague.
