Inventive, eerie, and surprisingly heartfelt, Creepy Pasta brilliantly blends internet horror with genuine emotional depth. Baughfman fills the play with clever genre nods and unsettling atmosphere while never losing sight of its moving father-son story, crafting a horror-comedy that is as emotionally satisfying as it is deliciously creepy.

Contemporary internet horror is all about the vibes, and this short has vibes for days! Fans of the creepypasta genre will have a blast spotting all the little references (especially some of my beloved video game creepypastas). This play isn't just a series of gimmicks, however - it's populated with characters dealing with some serious grief, and the framing is metatheatrical and original, with an ending that's surprisingly wholesome! I love how the end recontextualizes the beginning!

"Creepy Pasta" is a wildly imaginative play that cleverly blends internet horror culture, meta-theatrical storytelling, and supernatural suspense into a touching father-son drama about guilt, grief, and forgiveness. Evan Baughfman balances humor, horror, and heartfelt emotion with remarkable skill, delivering a theatrical experience that is both inventive and deeply human long after the final loop begins again.
