Spoiler As someone who suffered through three miscarriages and almost died with the last one, I am glad that this story is told from the father’s point of view. One memory that is forever in my mind is my husband holding the tiny little body in the palm of his hand with sorrow on his face. Sometimes, it seems as if the rest of the world forgets that three little lives are gone, but my husband and I remember. We are blessed with two living children. They are full of energy and sass. Thanks so much for this story.
My sister-in-law is in the middle of a risky pregnancy, and earlier this year she suffered a miscarriage. The whole family was devastated. I still cry about it every once in a while. We loved that poor baby boy. As much as it hurts me as an aunt, I know that my brother and his wife are exponentially more pained. My heart breaks for you, your husband, and your family
God damn it i was supposed to be scared not find a story that has an mc that matches my trauma and gave me such an amazing story and im crying like a baby over here 😢
In the end, this story truly resonated because it said so much about the human condition regarding love, affection, and commitment - something we don't have enough of in our real world. I had first listened to this story about Catfish soon after it dropped. Once again, I saw it earlier today and decided to give it yet another listen because it is a story that actually emotionally touched me and made me care about Catfish's unfolding life story.
@@JordanGrupe They just never give me the alerts, no matter what channel posts them. I'm still going to watch it, if you put a premiere in a playlist, it will show up in the playlist as a regular video once it airs.
@@diannshowers9129 it's not about the wait it's the lack of notifications that annoy me. Not the creator's fault and no shade at u or others who like it, TH-cam used to give notifications for premieres, but they broke it and still haven't fixed it.
The artwork chosen for this story suits, like I could imagine you're voice coming out of his mouth. That sound odd? By the way love these longer stories.
I've always liked the almost Miyazaki-like elements of the setting of this story, like the anthropomorphized nature spirits of the bayou that just occasionally pop into the human world for stuff like some fried fish (almost seems like borderline cannibalism on Catfish's part, but I suppose it is consistent with the diet of actual catfish, considering they're scavengers that will pretty much eat any other dead fish they can find, even their own kind, and since he's more anthropomorphic, it makes sense that'd translate into liking cooked fish). It's not something you see in a lot of horror stories, which often portray even nature spirits as universally malicious and hostile to humans it seems like, especially those associated with environments that are less hospitable to humans like swamplands, so it's fun to see a world where there are both good and bad ones living together.
I really like this channel but, why when people read stories set in Louisiana do they make the characters sound so dumb? I'm from Louisiana and the majority of us here do not speak that way. I do like the story though! Oh yeah, and it's "crawfish" not crawdad. Always.
I'm sorry that was not my intention. I apologize if it came off that way. I'm very amateur in terms of my voice work and I've only really been doing this for six months or so. I'm always appreciative for the feedback and now I know that's something I have to work on to make it more authentic!
@JordanGrupe you've really only been doing this for 6 months? I assumed it had been years. I thought the voices in other stories were quite well done. Especially the "I inherited a haunted mansion" one. That's one of my favorites. Well I'm glad to hear you weren't intentionally trying to make us sound a certain way. Most everyone else does. Keep the long stories coming!!
Saved to my stories playlist so I can listen when I go to sleep tonight. I have been having problems with notifications being turned off and having to turn them back on. Sometimes having to unsubscribe and re-subscribe.
I don't get Gavin's story. Did he marry the male attorney who helped get the priest off? Was he gay? And what was marrying the attorney supposed to accomplish? I'm so confused 😮🤔🙄
Another great story, I do love ones featuring cops and you always have ones that are full of emotion and cool moments. and yet another one that could easily be made into a series. Also I think this is one of the few times I have seen a gay male character end up having a good ending or even surviving.
Thank you! I'm Canadian but for this one I tried to do a bit of a panhandle accent... Or something like that 😂 I feel like some lines could have been better but I'm still working on my voices.
I will be honest, the more I thought about it the more I hated this story, because of the fact of the deer fell in love with the guy that raped his sister I get that it was meant to be a psychological torture for the other person, but yet in the aspect of the sister, think about how that falls I don’t remember if he killed her or not, but regardless, it would’ve been better to just mutilate and dump him in the swamp because then the person had to deal with murder opposed to loving a rapist and not just a rapist, someone who raped and hurt his family
He didn't marry the rapist he married the lawyer that helped the rapist get out of jail to later do that to the sister. But when the layer realized that the guy was guilty he quit his job but that wasn't enough for the brother so he ended up marrying him to ruin his life
Jordan. Loved the story. Beautiful, bittersweet ending to it, that tugs at the jeart strings, while sending a chill down your spine. Mainly from with your excellent narration. As a stepfather, who lost one before even knowing she was pregnant, who found out he is sterile, after the same accident that ended their lives, it made me do something I have never done. Pause and reflect on why I made the choice I did, 22 years ago. To some extent, anyone who has lost one, never having met them, wife and I lost one of our daughter's friends, who lived with us for a few years on 2018 as well, that loss is always a factor. It makes you more protective of every child around you, fiercely so, when they are part of your complete Family. And losing one is as close to Hell as any parent can get. It fuels your nightmares the rest of your life. But rhar alone should never be the only reason you ask mom, or dad, and their child. Perfect message in that ending.
Another fantastic tale that leaves me wanting to hear even more. Love your work. It has everything that would make listeners keep coming back for more.
Jordan..."How y'all are!!?" A little question posed every weekend on PBS before The Food Network was ever thought of, by my culinary inspiration Justin Wilson. Cajun Cook, Master Storyteller, humorist, cook book author etc. I was born further north than in my heart home of Louisiana where my family roots are from. There will always be a part of me there. Thank you for this....Take care sir.
We all need a Catfish in our lives.

Another exciting narration. Almost anything from Louisiana and the bayou will be good

Down on the bayou. What a great location for a scary tale! Thank you, Jordan. ⚘️
Glad you enjoyed it!
Awww man I hate premieres. For those who actually want to see this save it in your watch later list.
Sorry to hear you don't like the premiere system, I hadn't heard about the issues with it. Still hope you catch the video!

Thanks!
@@JordanGrupe the bayou stories are super interesting. And you did very well with the accents. Maybe a Boohag tale next?
I don't get Gavin's story. Did he marry the male attorney who helped get the priest off? Was he gay? And what was marrying the attorney supposed to accomplish? I'm so confused 😮🤔🙄
that was actually kind of a sweet story
Boy did I enjoy that, superb story, can’t wait for more!!❤️❤️
I love this story
They're crawfish in Louisiana. Not crawdads.

I'm so glad!
Thankyou loved this!! I listen to all and I'm going to give your books a read when I finish the series I'm reading atm. 😃
Thank you! That means a lot to me ❤️
I liked this one a lot!!! I was just wondering where your accent is from? Thank you for your hard work and for sharing ❤🎗️
Thank you! I'm Canadian but for this one I tried to do a bit of a panhandle accent... Or something like that 😂 I feel like some lines could have been better but I'm still working on my voices.
@@JordanGrupe I loved it and thought you did great 👍. I'm so happy that I found your channel Jordan ❤️🎗️
Thanku Jordan
Awesome story...
Thanks! Huge credit to Reddit user u/02321 for writing this one!
The ending was sooo satisfying 🥰
Very well done! Thank you ❤❤❤
This is one of the best creepypastas ive heard in a long time; both the story, and the narration
Such an interesting character catfish really enjoy these stories
So ultimately, it boils down to this you fell for your own psychological trap
So ultimately that ruined it for me and complete and total shit otherwise it was a good story, but that ruined it
This is from lighthouse horror creepypasta
Damn good!!!
Thanks!
Now this is a captivating story.
This was so good TT wish there was a pt 2 about the “kid”
May need to play some hunt showdown after this
This was amazing. Thanks for sharing this with us.
Oh a double feature!! I love this.😊
The kid sounds like the "dirty old man" from the family guy. Sorry Jordan 😅
I take that as the highest form of compliment
catfish is so cute 😭😭 just a little guy fr
Awesome thanks much
I absolutely love Catfish 🩵. I hope Gavin finds peace someday.

Very good story!!!!
I am looking forward to this.

You did write this one right? This is my second favorite of your work my other is monster delivery driver and you wrote that one too correct?
No this one was by a different writer u/02321 but I wrote the monster delivery one

I'm very happy you're enjoying the stories, and the donation means a lot, thank you again!
What a great story. Ending did make cry though. 💕
Loved the gay character in this story it was subtle and well written. Didn't feel forced even slightly.
The author did a phenomenal job.
♥️👋

Thank you!

Notification on . That's if it works 😅
They rarely work. One work-around is saving this video in any playlist, ie: a watch later playlist
Great story and narration!
