My horror story exploded and went viral, then won a contest and got a movie deal!

Best wishes to you!

Just read the story. Nice. That was creepy as heck. I love the whole concept of r/nosleep - the mingling of fiction and nonfiction where readers are asked to suspend disbelief and treat all stories as true. You don't necessarily know that a story is fictional until it turns into armies of murder zombies.

Jeez, that's scary. Even though I'm reading it knowing it's fiction I might actually have to stop for a bit to recover. (And I'm only on part 2.)

Well done!

Outstanding!

congrats!

Congratulations!

Congratulations!! That's thrilling!

Well done!!!

Really awesome! Congrats!!!

Congratulations!

That was a really creepy story.... I don't know why I read it. I'm not supposed to read or watch even moderately scary things.

The atmosphere is good for it today. It's overcast, and while I was reading, it was severely storming outside. The wall in my office is all windows. Because of the weather, very few people are here, so it's quiet, too. Then I had to go to the bathroom, right in the middle of one of very chilling cabin scenes... The bathroom was dark but the light popped on when I opened the door because we have motion-sensing lights. They're supposed to be flipped to On all the time, but every once in a while, someone bumps the switch (it's weirdly at hip level) when they exit the bathroom.

Doing my... ah, business... I could hear all sorts of voices and movements, including someone walking heavily on tile, which is unusual because the whole office is carpeted, except for the bathroom and break room. You can hear things through the pipes, though, from other floors, so that's what it was. But there was this walking on the tile thing going on, setting a methodical pace but not really getting anywhere apparently. It was giving me the creeps, and then it abruptly stopped. I listened for it to start up again, and that's when all the lights in the bathroom suddenly went out (because I'd neglected to turn the switch to On-On when I entered and it couldn't "see" me in the stall).

I screamed... at work. Thanks.

I haven't read a lot of horror in recent years, it used to be my go to genre. That was seriously creepy. Well done

I'm afraid to read it, but Congratulations!!!!

I don't know how to make the happy snoopy dance emoji. But I'm really happy for you!!!

OMG, I'm going to have to read this. In the morning. With all the lights on.

It's 3:41 pm on a sunny day, and I am glancing nervously over my shoulder as I read. Thanks for that (read that in a voice that is somehow both sarcastic and genuine).

And congratulations!

do you need an entourage?

I'm on part six and I'm totally freaked out. Well done!

Congrats, Galumph.

Congratulations, that's pretty epic I haven't read it yet, but am about to

Yess, that's awesome! I love /nosleep/, it's great to see a success story from AW.

Argh WHY did I read it??! No sleep is right! I love the way the story is affected by the audience...really nicely done!
