Touhou Creepypastas

[SirtheBastard]

Since Touhou has existed since 1997, there'll be a possibility that there is going to be a creepypasta for Touhou one way or another. So, let me know if you've read or listened any Touhou creepypastas on the web. Thank you!

I've read a Touhou creepypasta about a cursed Yuyuko fumo of all things, i think i found it on the Lost Episode Wiki. I've also read one about a cursed version of Touhou 14, but from what i remember it was just your run-of-the-mill .exe story with a lot of gore and shock and dead ppl!!!11!!. It eventually ended up on the Trollpasta wiki so yeah. There's not really a whole lot of Creepypastas about Touhou (or at least none which have gathered enough popularity), which is weird considering that it's a pretty well-known series.

Not quite a creepypasta, but if you didn't know already, SCP-6959 is a Cirno fumo.

Yeah, they tend to be strawberries at times. Especially the infamous Dark Square creepypasta. This bad boy uses the boring and bad tropes used in video game creepypastas.

Huh, that's silly.

So, since the well-known ones to be dogwater, do any of you guys wanna make your own creepypasta? More preferably, an in-universe creepypasta? (But that will just be horror at this point...)

This one sounds like a creepypasta you would read in like 2011 or 2012, but no it came out in 2020 lol

tbh Touhou in my mind takes its youkai and dark side quite lightly so it's hard to make a convincing creepypasta that doesn't just make one want to laugh.

I think an effective one would probably have to be set in the past (think Dolls in Pseudo Paradise era or earlier), when the sc rules didn't exist and youkai ran more rampantly around.

B-but... I want it to be dark and edgyyyy!1!1!111!!1 :''''(

I mean someone could make a DiPP fanfic (but I believe it is better to make a horror fanfic in the present day of Gensokyo, with a mix of comedy.)

The first game (HPtP) is a real creepypasta considering that it's also the only game in the series that is very different.
This is the feel I expected for Touhou when reading some of the print works.

I mean the lack of dialogue makes it seem dark, until you've read the prologue and seen the endings. They tend to be goofy and light-hearted; compared to the tone and atmosphere of playing the game.

Hearing someone bring up HRtP in a thread for creepypastas feels like this was specifically meant for me. Love that game. It's fun, and its visuals and lack of much of a story makes it very dreamlike and even a bit creepy at points, like Sariel's fight with the weird Reimu visuals. Music's good too. It does feel like what a creepypasta game for Touhou might be.

Anyway, it's really, really hard to do a good gaming creepypasta apparently, since you don't see too many good ones compared to the other genres of creepypastas, and the ones you do see are typically based on their own original games, rather than a preestablished series.

I'm not sure how you would make a Touhou creepypasta work without it being some abstract thing that focuses less on the game itself or something, but whatever. 'Digital' horror content I've seen online typically involves Rin Satsuki, and I'd post some examples here I've watched on YouTube, but I gotta find them. There's also the (in)famous 'Touhou 6: Play as Rin Satsuki English Patch' you're probably aware of. Had to mention it, I guess.

There is also the Touhorror Wiki, a compilation of characters and other such concepts created by what I assume are new age creepypasta fans brought in by stuff like FNF. They don't really count as creepypasta, I'd say, since last time I checked, there wasn't much stories attached to them, and it seems to be more of a fun character design thing anyway, but figured I'd mention it, since it is in part inspired by creepypasta, and I think it's cool.

Fanfiction/fancomics like KKHTA and Igyoukyo are great, but they don't really count, at least in my opinion.

I remember listening to one about Koishi(?) talking to some guy through Touhou 11, but I didn't finish it, since me and my friends were just purposefully looking for bad ones to waste time. Like I said, not easy to write, but maybe it's just because Creepypasta is mostly filled with amateur writers (not a bad thing, of course).

There's a lot of Touhou horror content out there, but creepypastas in particular are...a bit tough to do, I guess. But maybe I need to broaden my horizons on what can be considered a 'creepypasta'.
