Glad to have once again been a part of another Creepypasta countdown, Strider! Hope everyone enjoys it as much as I did recording it. Good to be back! :)

I will never not be amused at children's attempts at scary stories. They've done their absolute best, and it's adorable.

To be fair, Barney eating the children is fairly realistic, as that is what a predator would do if a bunch of small, loud things approached them.

That Caillou creepypasta made it sound like they had to euthanize him because he's bald, they didn't even explicitly say he had cancer. "That's just how life works" 🤷

"If I had a nickel for everytime a sesame street creepypasta ended with a nuclear bomb being dropped, I'd have two nickels, but it's strange that it's happened twice."

[CheeseChurger]

Elmo just straight up doxxing that one guy was probably one of the most entertaining parts of any of them

I love how all of these "Lost Episode" creepypastas start with "I will never look at (insert kid's show) the same way again after what I saw".

Edit: Also, "I was so scared I destroyed/ threw out the tape, " and "The opening started like normal but this time ___"

Ok, but the Teletubbies theory was actually really good. It being an Orwellian-like future dystopia makes sense with their unusual appearance and technology

[Lemieux_channel]

“There was one episode of Sesame Street deemed to scary to broadcast.”
Surprisingly, this is partially true. The topic was more depressing than scary to think about, but the episode was titled “Snuffy’s Parents get a Divorce”, and the subject matter apparently did not sit well with the test audiences

“I called Jim Henson, creator of Sesame Street”. That was the funniest sentence in the whole story

[haileybalmer]

I'll never get over how funny these are. I can just picture DW walking in calmly, looking at Arthur, saying "I shot your TV, ' Arthur shrieking once and then looking at the camera and saying "I don't know, maybe this is my first nightmare" in his regular voice. If I saw that, if that was just on TV, I don't think I'd be creeped out. I think I'd be laughing uncontrollably.

Fun fact-In the original ending for Thomas and the Children, it's implied that Thomas killed the main character's son. Yeah, it somehow managed to be dumber than the ending presented here.

Fun fact: This is Strider’s longest YouTube video ever. It really shows how much effort Strider puts into his videos for us. Kudos!

Regarding the female voice on the Teletubbies speaker: I live in America, and the few times I saw it as a kid, the voice was female and spoke in the tone of an elementary school teacher. I guess they changed it because they didn't think kids here would obey a British male voice.

4:12 “he comes to life, giggling like an idiot.”

I love that line.

[humblebee]

"The Bernstain Bears are DIED! Have a nice life kids!" That's great 🤣

[RogueOmega]

That "Thomas and the Children" story... I remember reading it years ago, but the ending was different. I'm guessing either the author went and changed the ending at some point, or someone else simply copied the story, made their own ending to it and reposted it. The way I remember it ending, after all the messages begin appearing on the TV, the father gets a headache severe enough that it causes him to pass out. When he awakes, he's covered in blood, and the story ends with the line "I'm afraid to check on my son..." (or something close to that).

[TheRealCCall]

I love how strider mentions that he has been to prison many times, and then refuses to elaborate further.

[kitsunequeen]

Ok, but the attempt at creating a "hyper realistic" image is genuinely adorable. Someone evidently tried, and I think that's precious
