Horror week day 1: Creepypastas continued

#Horrorweek
Hey guys! I'm finally back, and I am officially re-starting horror week! I'll be continuing with creepypasta today, and also introduce you to a parodied version of creepypasta or just plain shit-writing, called as crappypasta!
Day after tomorrow, I'll be discussing Asian horror(because asians are awesome at horror) as well as some pretty cool horror movies in the west, kay? So let's start!

Must read pasta list continued:
The Music Man http://creepypasta.wikia.com/wiki/The_Music_Man
This is a lesser known pasta, but what I liked in this was the following:
1) The question answer format. This is a ritual pasta, but the question answer format in the middle is pretty good.
2)It does not rely on gore to be scary.
3)It manages to strike a chord in your heart as the author has discussed what and why we fear.
The one thing that I did not like was the ending. It leaves a lot to imagination, which is a good ending to any pasta, but somehow I feel it abruptly stopped. I'd like to see a prequel to this pasta, it needs to be continued.

The dead poets game http://creepypasta.wikia.com/wiki/The_Dead_Poet's_Game
This is yet again a ritual pasta, and it starts out by describing a 'magician' in ye old days who did this ritual to ridicule it. Biggie newbie mistake. What if you are a spirit and someone does a summoning ritual juuust to prove that you're a big-time faker. Would you or would you not be offended? This ritual is very complex, and as usual, I will not recommend playing it. Also, you'll be playing on a poets grave with a dead person sitting opposite you and will drink with them. From what I hear, poets aren't exactly happy happy souls singing the joys of life. Just saying.

Psychosis http://creepypasta.wikia.com/wiki/Psychosis
This is a gem. No wait, it's a legacy. It's very long pasta, but its worth a read. It raises a serious issue in an eye-catching, gripping manner. Definitely worth the full read. It gave me the spooks. There is practically no gore, but I loved it! Also, no ghosts. Yep I know. How is it a scary story? Go read it. NOW.

Honestly, I'm at fault. It's just been a horrible week with exams, hence I could't post anything. But please bear with me. I am continuing horror week, and plan to finish it properly before starting anything new. You shouldn't expect a post a day(I know, stupid, right) but yes, I WILL properly finish horror week.
