This is GOOD story writing, THIS is how you write a scary story. Fear of the unknown and things we can understand is everything. The 'thing' (goatman) in this story never once poses a real threat, but the elements of the unknown are what makes this one of the creepiest stories of all time - Is it a threat? Is it human? What does it want? What does it look like? - we don't know, and the unknown and things that are slightly 'off' are everything
That is exactly what I thought because that is the definition of scary and the exact reason people feel the drive to explore because what we don't know scares the everliving shit out of us (notice the reference to the popular phrase)
I love this type of thing. it definitely reminds me of that doctor who episode with the thing on the train possessing that woman. they didn't know anything about it, and that's what made it terrifying.
While it's a good story it sounds like the writer is too sparatic, repeative as all hell. Doesn't give any detail out of the area we just are boom there. I guess it's the who "untrustworthy" narrator style of writing.
My favorite detail about this one is the way it’s written. It feels like it was actually written by an average American teenager that’s just genuinely afraid of what happens to him and trying to tell us about it.
The fact that the author gave the creature a voice comparable to an animal being taught to "talk" instead of a cliche demonic voice or some crap like that is Soooo creative and creepy. It could also imply that it's repeating the voice of someone it could have terrorized in the past. Such good clever writing
It didn’t work for me, I just imagine husky’s doing that talking noise and Cats making that scared “noooo nooo nooo!” It’s kind of like is Freddy Krueger had a very high pitch voice as if he only breathes helium.
It's written well-enough and believably enough that I'm willing to accept it being a possible true story. I've experienced enough of my own creepy or abstractly weird sht to not brush that off. Moreover, the "creature" behaves very legit unlike many cliches. If it's not a "true story" it's certainly a possible one in my world.
It's basically implied in this story and outright stated in other skinwalker/goatman stories based on this one that the creature repeats things it heard people say, like a parrot mimicking human speech. Pretty brilliant indeed, a really creative and creepy idea
Its dialogue is taken directly from the campers, I think. The beginning of the story has a group come back and slamming on the door "Lemme the F in, stop playin'!" Now the Goatman comes in. Repeating that same phrase.
One of my favorite creepypastas simply because the monster isn't absolutely generic, and because it seems a bit more like something a teenage kid would write while trying to recall his story. If that makes sense ._.
Used by Jordan Peele in "Nope" ...black cowboys in his case. Expression naturally instilled in black boys and girls. I dig it, its perfect for certain scenarios
Even though he does say 'Fuck' a lot it makes it realistic. Like a scared teenager is retelling this story to his friends. Which I really like about the story
This one actually sent chills up my spine the whole way through. When I was a teenager, I visited some cousins in their mountain home in the forests. I remember them sternly telling me NEVER to go outside after dark, even between the house and the garage (which had been converted into an entertainment room or guest house. Me and the cousins slept in the garage, because they firmly believed we shouldn't head back after dark, and it had been storming. What's crazy is that there are legit weird animals out there that make that 'dog trying to talk' noise that we were hearing. I personally thought it was just the echoes of a donkey warped a bit by echoes in the mountains, but they kept saying otherwise. That made me so nervous , I was triple checking the locks and covering the windows. I am notably superstitious, but in the ghost sense... But that place really made me question myself.
Yes, and with the thunder and rain in the background, the ambient fire. It sounds like everyone was telling ghost stories around a campfire and one of your buddies that is usually the jokester of the group sobers up and tells a harrowing true account of something that happened to them.
This creepypasta was like the first high you get and can never replicate. I've never found another story half as good as this one, and I've spent a decade looking.
To everyone concerned about the over-abundant swearing, it is actually necessary. At first I hated it and thought it was the author's juvenile attempt to make the story sound intense, but as I listed to it more and more I realized something. A lot of people point out that the author is a graduate of college but is remembering something from the edge of his childhood (he was 16). And already swearing is a mainstay of our culture. Everyone swears like his right here. So there's that point. But here's the second point that really got me and really made me realize just who deep a writer this person actually is. The swearing actually enhances the story and adds depth to the goatman. How? What does the goatman say when he finally speaks? "Let me the fuck in. Stop. Fucking. Playing." It was mimicking them. It sat with them and learned how they spoke. It had no cadence because it was literally like an animal or young child repeating what it has heard adults or other people say in an attempt to fit in or belong. Can you just imagine this story from the goatman's perspective? He is an amalgamation of monster and human alone in the woods. When these guys go camping out there, he blends in when he can and has "friends". The animals in the wood don't like him because he's an abomination, so he blends with the people to know what it's like to belong. To feel community. The reason he was at first standing with his back to them was because he wanted to see how their faces look, to nail down what someone their age would look like. He wasn't freaking them out at first, he was there watching and learning and developing the personas he would use when he'd join them. He never talked before that moment because he couldn't talk. He didn't know how to. If he said the wrong thing or spoke with words common from a different point in time, he probably would have given himself away much sooner. So he only spoke when felt it absolutely necessary and when he was sure he could pass as one of them. He tried to adopt Kira's person but couldn't fully and started heaving, whether out of nervousness or out of something else, I can't say. But he really tried. Then, when Reese is there and the goatman tries to get in, Reese actually manages to shoot the thing. From out perspective that is a good thing and it starts giving off unholy screams, but from it's perspective? "They shot me. My friends shot me" Then it snuck in, again trying to blend, and managed to sleep with them again, every so often doing the heaving thing and again it could be out of child-like excitement or something else such as it trying to keep control of the disguise. Then it walked all the way back tot he house, trying it's best to stay blended and make the most of its last few moments with it's new "friends" then, when only Tanner knew who the goatman was and they looked each other in the eye, was it a threat of don't come back or was like like looking into a pet's eye or a stranger hoping you will return? I know it's so easy to write this off as a well-written creepypasta with a bit too much swearing in it, but if you think about it... it could be a deeper story about the goatman actually being a tragic creepypasta figure wanting to be human but never able to be.
This is a very interesting concept, to say the least. I think its somewhat plausible with the goatman trying to blend in with them, but Im sure he had some other motives besides being "accepted", dont you think? But the whole idea about him trying to befriend them could work. 👌
I’ve always viewed skinwalkers as, like, predators, that take advantage of human social nature, so I tend to view its actions as more like that of a juvenile predator just engaging in experimental behavior. Not yet old enough to hunt, and still clearly bad at blending in, using young humans as practice in a kind of animalistic playful style.
[JAW] Mustang I’m sorry this is just so fucking funny this guy did a complete analysis and made a new interpretation of the story and this is your immediate response
This could make a good horror movie/short film. Like it's one of the few times not knowing the characters that well would benefit you. The characters in the story didn't know each other that well which is why the Goatman managed to get into the group unnoticed. So if you threw all 12 characters at once and only paid attention to the main character you could easily slip in another person without the audience noticing. It would be hard, but if done write you'd have something pretty creepy.
I absolutely agree, but if someone adapted this story to film (which should be done) whoever is heading the project needs to really understand the story they are dealing with. They cannot underestimate it. This is one the best creepypasta out there, and any adaption below excellent would be a travesty. Nothing but a 1 to 1 recreation, that not only tells the original story but enhances it. No creative license allowed tbh. Translate *everything* from the story to the screen with no exceptions. Every minor detail needs to be included, there's no excuse to leave anything out. If done well, I absolutely agree. It could be an awesome ensemble project. Get some good teen actors; fuck yah, that sounds rad. I am just paranoid af that an "official" adaption of this creepypasta is going to be made (and people eat it up) but it will be underwhelming. Like people want to see Channel Zero tackle this story, but I am highly skeptical they could pull it off that would be to this story's standards.
@@Ryan-hj8il There actually was a short film called Weirdo I think on Vimeo that is an adaptation of this. I don’t remember how good it was but I remember enjoying it.
Dr who actually managed to do this in the "Silence in the library". Literally the Doctor took a pause after doing some exposition and started counting the characters, until they all realized there was one more person there than it should have been.
Here's what I think was going on. The creature is fully sentient, and had no intention of actually harming the kids. They were in his territory, and he wanted them to leave, so he messed with them until they were too scared to stick around anymore. If the creature wanted to hurt them, he would have, because he had the opportunity to do just that, several times, but he didn't.
So if the Goatman stinks, that means he's probably in rut. When a male goat goes 'in rut' it's the start of his mating cycle. He pisses on himself and tries to get as smelly as possible (for some reason). Neutered goats don't do this. Anyway, I figure this is a sure sign that the Goatman was looking for a mate. That would certainly explain the stunned look on the face of the girl on the road side.
Genuinely one of the most harrowing stories I've ever heard/read. Even terrified other people by telling it to them on camping trips. It's the way the story doesn't go straight up too outlandish and everything that the creature does you can relate to the fear the characters feel.
Honestly, it kinda sounds like this monster just wanted to hang out (in all seriousness). think about it! all that it did was sneak into the group and stay there with them. It didn't really hurt anyone. It didn't really do anything ether, aside from acting really freaky and screwing with them occasionally. They where more freaked out by the fact that it existed then anything else. I think it just wanted to have fun with the people in its woods.
Bruh it's a demon. Demons hate humans. They like to creep the shit out of humans. Goatman likes to creep around, he want's to get people 1 by 1 to go into the woods with him so he can then eat them up alive.
@@Roachh2877 No, im talking about the same goatman in this story. Theres alot of stories about him and most of them tell the same thing about him and what he does. Listen to "It was something creeping around in woods at the south of seattle if anyone wants to look around". Listen or read that. Its about the same goatman as this story.
Despite the overused cursing I think this is one of the scariest pastas on here. This had me petrified a year ago and it's set me on edge just now even though it's daylight and I'm wide awake.
(Yes I know this is a 4yo comment but I’m replying anyways) I personally think the swearing is a nice touch. My friends and I definitely talk like this, it sounds a bit odd in a creepypasta but that’s because you’re expecting more of a professional story. The swearing gives it the vibe of a 16 year old at a campfire telling his friends this story. It adds realism, imo.
The cursing thing is a hallmark of 4chan type narrative storytelling; this story is originally from /x/. Additionally, it’s from the perspective of a young man, who probably cusses a lot.
11 years later and this Creepypasta is still one of the best! Great writing, brilliant way of telling of it and the sound effects add to the suspense. A*
The part with the creature making noises and the writer describing it as like the videos of cats talking is the most memorable part of any Creepypasta I've ever heard. It's what brought me back years later to listen to this again.
The thing about this story is, the goatman didn't actually kill or even hurt anyone. It just acted a little creepy and hung out with them a bit. Sure this story is very creepy and disturbing but the goatman might not have even had any malicious intent; he might've just wanted to hang out a bit. The cooked blood smell might've just been from an injury or it could've been someone else cooking in the distance. Still an awesome story. I like how Mrcreepypasta changes his voice and vocabulary to suit the story, hell, read the story "the black cat" and notice a huge difference in delivery.
This is one of a very small handful of stories that my friend and I found ourselves holding onto each other during. This is one of THE BEST creepypastas ever written.
I feel sorry for the goatman. I think he was just lonely. If you are the only goatman, who do you hang with? Do you go to the goatman bar outside of town and pick up goatgirls? No. That's why he disguised himself as one of them. To feel like part of the group.
The Goat man actually is an Amish story, originated early on the XX century, allegedly a couple that "got busy" before marriage, therefore committing a sin, the baby they had was born as a half-goat half-human hybrid, they kept that thing a secret, until the mother, who loved her baby, decided to take hin to the church and the community was like "Yo', that nigga ain't normal" they tried to escape, but the baby tan to the forest, becoming later a Goat man, and I dunno, that's what I've heard.
+Alberto Hinojosa thats actually a decent backstory. It enhances my imaginative belief that it wasnt a threat and only wanted to be friendly and accepted. And it screaming at the end was it crying
This will always be an amazing story and a great narration of it. It's so scary, and I've listened to it multiple times already but it's still good and creepy every time.
Call me crazy but I love listening to these stories late at night as I’m drifting off to sleep. I can’t stand any of the other creepy pasta channels. MCP just does unmatched narration. I tip my hat to you, sir.
Ooh look at how cool and edgy I am telling people I don't care what they say. TH-cam is a public website, people can say what they want, shut the fuck up now.
I still think, all these years later, This is one of the best creepypasta there is. No landslide ending that jumps the shark, No huge leap of logic, Just a story that kinda freaks you out because you could almost imagine it happening to you.
It's been 6 years but this is still my favorite story to come back to. It's stuck with me since the minute I heard the narrator, and it's the reason I listen to creepy stories and subreddits.
My cousin Seth showed me this video when he stayed over one night. This story has always creeped me out, this is my second time coming back to it in years, have no idea why I thought about this until now
forever my favorite narrated creepypasta of all time. The way it's written makes it so raw and believable. And of course the actual creepiness of it- imagining it talking to them from outside the door in one of those weird ass cat / dog "voices" is fucking terrifying. From someone who's been listening/reading creepypasta for over a decade now, 10/10. Favorite creepypasta by the best and OG creepypasta narrator (And this video in particular is the very best version 👌)
I honestly like this version better than his more recent reading of this, his demeanor and rhythm is more genuine... and he didn't censor it lol adds to the feels
That was a fantastic story! It was one of the first in awhile that has really creeped me out. As I like to go camping a lot, I'll remember to count the people :D
This still gives me goosebumps. I use to work overnight at a super target and I remember one day I was assigned to work in the toy section alone throughout the night (it's a big store). The toy section was located on the opposite side at the end of the store from were everyone else worked. Since I knew that no one was going to come and check up on me, I decided to listen to this and other creepypasta stories while I worked. Bad idea, gave me goosebumps and I kept looking behind me and checking the end of the ails to see if anyone was there, the worst place was the corners.
Where did these stories go.. what happened to the classic style of pasta, everyone writes things so differently now. I mean I'll always love creepypastas but the newer ones just don't have the same vibe. Tell me somebody agrees
AND in REAL life people in high stress situations DO sure as hell swear. Studies have been done that PROVE swearing HELPS relieve pain & stress MORE so then fake swear words. Look it up.
Do you like video game creepypastas? Godzilla nes and snow on mt silver are butting heads in my mind...If not then the only real competition is candle cove (All of like 8 episodes feed beautifully into eachother to sew the story and each pasta was made by someone different yet they dont go against eachothers story. It cant be replicated. I think this is my secondfavorite overall and I have been reading these since 2009
I know I'm late to the party I have seen the thumbnail on this story sooo many times but never bothered to click on it. I been a Creepypasta fan as a kid and I can get very picky with stories. But this is my first time listening to this. I am in awe I was on edge I'm actually happy I listened to this
ShockJockey287 I get it IS a goat man but he is trying to joke about but then he gets aggressive and that's when his goat part have tried to take over and start to take people and start to scary them because for his goat part they were in his territory and when your in a animal's territory they get agressive
All false. TheNintendoProducts had it right, it is more or less peaceful. If you recall the description, it likes to "torment" people. Not torture, not eat, not main, not kill. Torment. Just arbitrarily fuck with basically. So in short...it's a creature that loves to terrify and freak out people, but aside from that it's basically harmless.
Even 9 years later, I keep on coming back to this story, it’s just too good
I S exactly

Frrr

I like how the goatman doesn't really do anything to them. He just wanted to hang out, eat human food and sleep indoors.

I'll be the younger cousin
I'll be the Goatman
TigerLily i'll be your stuntman
One of the best stories I have listened to.
*heard :)
DarkSoulsNStuff You forgot the period. ):
DarkSoulsNStuff *heard.
Me to this creeped me out to the point of camping:nope sleeping:nope living:nope
DarkSoulsNStuff or, just *listened to.
Even after all these years, I still come back to this masterpiece, a masterpiece in both the story itself and the narration.
Genuinely one of the most harrowing stories I've ever heard/read. Even terrified other people by telling it to them on camping trips. It's the way the story doesn't go straight up too outlandish and everything that the creature does you can relate to the fear the characters feel.
We need a movie adaptation of this.
Preach
I would like to be an actor in it haha
There’s like a homemade movie of this but sorry I don’t have the link , but I do remember watchin it
Hey there's a short film adaption called 'weirdo' and also me and my friends (we are a small rubbish film group) are also wanting to adapt it.
I'm currently making a short film about this
That was one of the best creepy pastas I've ever heard...
The nostalgia from this story is unmatched
I foundly remember listening to this on the way home after school during 5-8 grade its been many years since then and I miss those days.
Should re-name this "Anasi's Fucking Goatman story"
Fucking anasazi's goddamn goat story
stalfos slayer I would watch the fucking shit out of that x)
stalfos slayer Hot damn, that's the fucking shit... I mean that's fucking rad!!
God I love what is becoming of this post :')
***** More like Anasi's goddamn motherfucking tale of the Goatman!
Enough is enough! I have had it with all these mutha' fuckin' goatmen, in this mutha' fuckin' trailer!!
lol
+S. Sanchez toast man lelelelele
lol
+S. Sanchez BEETLEJUICE BEETLEJUICE BEETLEJUICE !
hey that's pretty funny😀😁
This version is so good. Idk why he ever bothered to do a newer reading of this story.
so this is from the humans' perspective in goat simulator right? XD
omg
Lool
Holy crap, this changes everything. XD
Obviously tf
😂🤣😂🤣
Honestly, it kinda sounds like this monster just wanted to hang out (in all seriousness). think about it! all that it did was sneak into the group and stay there with them. It didn't really hurt anyone. It didn't really do anything ether, aside from acting really freaky and screwing with them occasionally. They where more freaked out by the fact that it existed then anything else. I think it just wanted to have fun with the people in its woods.
"have fun". Hmmmmmmmm
“FUCK YOU TOO GUYS, I DIDN’T WANNA PARTY ANYWAYS!”
Bruh it's a demon. Demons hate humans. They like to creep the shit out of humans. Goatman likes to creep around, he want's to get people 1 by 1 to go into the woods with him so he can then eat them up alive.
@@semi8515
I think you're referring to a different story.
@@Roachh2877 No, im talking about the same goatman in this story. Theres alot of stories about him and most of them tell the same thing about him and what he does. Listen to "It was something creeping around in woods at the south of seattle if anyone wants to look around". Listen or read that. Its about the same goatman as this story.
Despite the overused cursing I think this is one of the scariest pastas on here. This had me petrified a year ago and it's set me on edge just now even though it's daylight and I'm wide awake.
Not really even when I was 16 this wasn't scary. 5 years ago it sounded like shit and even now
Might I recommend not playing a drinking game every time MCP says fucking/fuck when reading this story. You'd be dead in 2 minuets.
(Yes I know this is a 4yo comment but I’m replying anyways) I personally think the swearing is a nice touch. My friends and I definitely talk like this, it sounds a bit odd in a creepypasta but that’s because you’re expecting more of a professional story. The swearing gives it the vibe of a 16 year old at a campfire telling his friends this story. It adds realism, imo.
@@im.9648 It's good writing, is what it is, ironically enough compared to how many are criticizing it.
The cursing thing is a hallmark of 4chan type narrative storytelling; this story is originally from /x/. Additionally, it’s from the perspective of a young man, who probably cusses a lot.
This guy had a lot of fucks to give!
Wouldn't you? Wouldn't... You?
Trevor Scott ...i smell a homestuck.
Trevor Scott homestuck for the win
WanderingRandomer If this story had no f$%$S it would have been under 20 minutes LOL.
Ugh, fucking homestuck.
this is one of my all-time favorite creepypastas
heres a fun drinking game, take a shot every time a "FUCK" is dropped :)
K Jason I'll just die of alcohol poisoning
+Robert Woodard at least you weren't brutally murdered :)
That'll be 73 shots
The Creeps JESUS O-O
horrorclassicman98 it was YOUR challenge after all Jason
11 years later and this Creepypasta is still one of the best! Great writing, brilliant way of telling of it and the sound effects add to the suspense. A*
"Here's my story… 16 I'm black"
😂😂
If you live in the South, that's a horror story in and of itself. haha
FUCKIN POLICE COMING STRAIGHT FROM THE UNDERGROUND 😎
T, I'm not the only person who realizes it!
Polar Wolf fuck the police* .....
Katsuo Higashi feark the police driving up my drive way
The part with the creature making noises and the writer describing it as like the videos of cats talking is the most memorable part of any Creepypasta I've ever heard. It's what brought me back years later to listen to this again.
The thing about this story is, the goatman didn't actually kill or even hurt anyone. It just acted a little creepy and hung out with them a bit. Sure this story is very creepy and disturbing but the goatman might not have even had any malicious intent; he might've just wanted to hang out a bit. The cooked blood smell might've just been from an injury or it could've been someone else cooking in the distance. Still an awesome story. I like how Mrcreepypasta changes his voice and vocabulary to suit the story, hell, read the story "the black cat" and notice a huge difference in delivery.
"Make s'mores, drink, kiss on the girls."
Is that what people call it these days? Kiss on the girls?
The goatman kissed on the girls
As well y'all'll didn't notice that
Panned-Cake think the goat man was pretending to be a girl
One of them might've kissed the goatman lol.
Goatman got lucky that night guess you can sayhe was "horny"
@@iamdeath5297 hehe.nice
I love how he makes this story seem so real, with the edge in his tone of voice.
Thats an incredible story. I love the massive plot twist at the end. Great job!
*reading comments while listening to the story*
*sees this*
PLOT TWIST?!
yeah when it turns out the goatman was with them all along
Maybe the Goat Man is everyone. Everyone is the Goat Man, me Goat Man, you Goat Man.
Goat Man is Goat Man.
yeah
greaserchickwhogames
goatmanception?
this story > slenderman, jack the killer, and laughing jack
... Jack the killer? Jeff. Jeff the killer.
fuck off emo let the boy live
This bothers me so much
+Yump Bagle ever notice how is jeff the killer
+nevàn campos hes no emo
This is one of a very small handful of stories that my friend and I found ourselves holding onto each other during. This is one of THE BEST creepypastas ever written.
I feel sorry for the goatman. I think he was just lonely. If you are the only goatman, who do you hang with? Do you go to the goatman bar outside of town and pick up goatgirls? No. That's why he disguised himself as one of them. To feel like part of the group.
Shane Ericson That thing can try me when i have a Remington pointed at it's head.
this would be a great ass movie
Honestly yes lol goat man movie would be better than any of this shit they make today
This is literally awesome, I've listened to it so many times and it never gets old.
The Goat man actually is an Amish story, originated early on the XX century, allegedly a couple that "got busy" before marriage, therefore committing a sin, the baby they had was born as a half-goat half-human hybrid, they kept that thing a secret, until the mother, who loved her baby, decided to take hin to the church and the community was like "Yo', that nigga ain't normal" they tried to escape, but the baby tan to the forest, becoming later a Goat man, and I dunno, that's what I've heard.
+Alberto Hinojosa thats actually a decent backstory. It enhances my imaginative belief that it wasnt a threat and only wanted to be friendly and accepted. And it screaming at the end was it crying
+JaRod H (Jrock-Malik) At least someone appreciates my Research.
"Yo that nigga ain't normal" 😂😂😂
+Alberto Hinojosa Closer to the origin story of the Jersey Devil.
+Xbalanque84 Yup
literally one of the scariest ones i've ever heard
"Eventually, we get BIG ASS STICKS!"
Best qoute 2014.
'Murica
I second this
It 2017 now BOI.
@kristenstanley7268 2024 at this point, still find myself returning to this story from time to time
"We stopped shitting bricks."
Okay I'm dying of laughter.
*Calming Down, Listening to the Story*
*Rifle Shot Sound*
*Flinched* Oh!.....Shit That Scared me!😮
When that happened, I had my volume up most the way so when those rifle shots happened, they were so goddamn loud I nearly jumped out of my skin.
Mahogany Eclipse True
I was listening to it with my friend and she jumped, that's what really scared me 😂😂
Lol, yeah happened to me.
Neko Lelouch yep
This will always be an amazing story and a great narration of it. It's so scary, and I've listened to it multiple times already but it's still good and creepy every time.
hi
The way he uses his voice and emotions on each line is what MAKES this
Call me crazy but I love listening to these stories late at night as I’m drifting off to sleep. I can’t stand any of the other creepy pasta channels. MCP just does unmatched narration. I tip my hat to you, sir.
Real
I went to olive garden and ordered creepypasta.
Nice
"We get big ass sticks" Lol wut? The way he had said that made me fall off my chair somehow.
'Murica
Marty! Yup, only in 'Murica do you take on freaky ass shape shifters with some big ass sticks.
Marty! native american territory not brit
This is one of the best CreepyPastas I've read in YEARS.
But you didn't read it LEL.
get out
Trystan Peery
he has a point
Mark Barry and i still miraculously don't care
Ooh look at how cool and edgy I am telling people I don't care what they say. TH-cam is a public website, people can say what they want, shut the fuck up now.
I still think, all these years later, This is one of the best creepypasta there is.
No landslide ending that jumps the shark, No huge leap of logic, Just a story that kinda freaks you out because you could almost imagine it happening to you.
I've listened to this story several times. I love the fast paced story telling and the amazing detail.
It's been 6 years but this is still my favorite story to come back to. It's stuck with me since the minute I heard the narrator, and it's the reason I listen to creepy stories and subreddits.
My cousin Seth showed me this video when he stayed over one night. This story has always creeped me out, this is my second time coming back to it in years, have no idea why I thought about this until now
forever my favorite narrated creepypasta of all time. The way it's written makes it so raw and believable. And of course the actual creepiness of it- imagining it talking to them from outside the door in one of those weird ass cat / dog "voices" is fucking terrifying. From someone who's been listening/reading creepypasta for over a decade now, 10/10. Favorite creepypasta by the best and OG creepypasta narrator (And this video in particular is the very best version 👌)
I still remember when this was uploaded & it's still my favorite story to this day.
I honestly like this version better than his more recent reading of this, his demeanor and rhythm is more genuine... and he didn't censor it lol adds to the feels
Found this 7 years ago. Still to this day my favorite Creepypasta.
Good story and very fine narrating, he really brings out the depth of the story in emotion.
I love the writing in this story. It sounds so organic and real. This is how Creepypastas should be written.
I've lost count of the number of times I've listened to this story. This is possibly my favorite work done by MCP.
That was a fantastic story! It was one of the first in awhile that has really creeped me out. As I like to go camping a lot, I'll remember to count the people :D
Yea, no joke! Kick any stinky friends out lol. It was really well written and you gotta love shape shifters.
MmmBrainss! why are you replying to yourself?
Vlad Humperdink Why not?
EH FUCKING MEN!!!!
Collin Isaac what?
Lowkey my favorite story
This still gives me goosebumps. I use to work overnight at a super target and I remember one day I was assigned to work in the toy section alone throughout the night (it's a big store). The toy section was located on the opposite side at the end of the store from were everyone else worked. Since I knew that no one was going to come and check up on me, I decided to listen to this and other creepypasta stories while I worked. Bad idea, gave me goosebumps and I kept looking behind me and checking the end of the ails to see if anyone was there, the worst place was the corners.
I grew up listening to this so now this has a weird nostalgia feelin to it and I love it so much
This narration! He sounds legitimately terrified!
Where did these stories go.. what happened to the classic style of pasta, everyone writes things so differently now. I mean I'll always love creepypastas but the newer ones just don't have the same vibe. Tell me somebody agrees
I feel u man
Tell me about it! Like, SIREN HEAD? Are you kidding? A STICK FIGURE with a SIREN as a head like come on!!
@@MiniTStark Siren Head isn't even a Creepypasta character though. It's a Trevor Hendersen character.
Coming back to this classic once in a while. Truely a great story
Honestly a timeless classic. Still as scary in 2020 as it was back in 2013
It's MANBEARPIG
hahahaha
Mmmmmm K.
What's a MANBEARPIG?!
Look it up dude
al gore is pleased
I hope the people complaining about swearing realize this story was from 4chan, hence the extreme swearing.
AND in REAL life people in high stress situations DO sure as hell swear.
Studies have been done that PROVE swearing HELPS relieve pain & stress MORE so then fake swear words.
Look it up.
This is my favorite creepypasta it's told so well. Wish there was more like this tbh
This is still my favorite creepypasta
This acctually scared me, and I NEVER get scared.
wellcome to ceepy pastas this is only one i look at mosty cuz its awesome and only one im scared of
agreed.
Kitty kat who me or her?
Her
Romeo Rodriguez exactly
Its been over a year i think since ive heard of this exact type of story. Nothing fucking beats this.
True that. :)
Do you like video game creepypastas? Godzilla nes and snow on mt silver are butting heads in my mind...If not then the only real competition is candle cove (All of like 8 episodes feed beautifully into eachother to sew the story and each pasta was made by someone different yet they dont go against eachothers story. It cant be replicated. I think this is my secondfavorite overall and I have been reading these since 2009
I know I'm late to the party I have seen the thumbnail on this story sooo many times but never bothered to click on it. I been a Creepypasta fan as a kid and I can get very picky with stories. But this is my first time listening to this. I am in awe I was on edge I'm actually happy I listened to this
This NEEDS an animation!
How the hell has this not been made into a movie yet?
>>Dude tells his dad there's some animal in the woods, not a monster.
My boy, more people need this foresight.
I couldn’t help but laugh when he said “It just stood there for 15 minutes saying let me the fuck in” 🤣😭
So it's a 100% peaceful monster that just likes to fuck with you? Sounds like a cool guy.
I wouldn't say that it's 100% peaceful. It didn't attack because the "prey" might have either been too strong or in a too big group.
I wish I could meet him
ShockJockey287 I get it IS a goat man but he is trying to joke about but then he gets aggressive and that's when his goat part have tried to take over and start to take people and start to scary them because for his goat part they were in his territory and when your in a animal's territory they get agressive
All false. TheNintendoProducts had it right, it is more or less peaceful. If you recall the description, it likes to "torment" people. Not torture, not eat, not main, not kill. Torment. Just arbitrarily fuck with basically. So in short...it's a creature that loves to terrify and freak out people, but aside from that it's basically harmless.
The Goatman is a hard-core troll.
I literally have listened to this story like 100 times since I've first heard it. I love it. One of my top favorite CP's ❤❤❤❤
Rule one of the Goatman, no one talks about te Goatman.....
u just talked about da Goatman!!!
O know......I broak rule one of the Goat man....
So did i...
We must hide... 0_0
Darcnuss Serpent
w-whats rule #2? 0_0
Never talk to the target of the Goatman.
I think this is hands down my favorite creepy pasta, I remember listening to it the first day it came out and I was hooked!
Old creepypastas hit different
"we all got the fuck outta there" golden.
I remember listening to this when I was 13/14, still love to give it a listen every so often
I always enjoy coming back to these old classics sometimes. This is one of the better ones.
Time to read all the comments.
And we're all like "FUCKIN' NOPE!". LMAO.
take a shot each time he says "fucking".
This story will never fail to make me shook
the best creepypasta til this day 💯🙌🏻
I listen to it every night on BROOO🤣
