Tommy Taffy is one of the better creepypastas out there. If you think it's too edgy and going too far, maybe you should join Wendigoon in his safe horror corner.

Tommy's mouth remained a frozen smile, but his eyes darkened, ever so slightly, “Hehehehe.”
I stopped reading there.

What i find interesting about the Eagan thing is the immediate ass covering. We know these bums are never around when you actually call them but will ALWAYS speak up when they feel they can lawyer up against someone "using their voice" in a fan work. The other irony is that it isn't A.I itself that is making peolpe lose their jobs it's these entitled clowns making rules that they want everyone to follow because they don't wanna adapt new systems in their cushy little V.A jobs. Seeing people like Steven Blum and Tara Strong whine about A.I is the most tone deaf thing since you can argue they are some of the main ones getting the talent from new VAs because why would you hire someone fresh out of school when one of these legacy voice actors will do anything for pennies.
This reminded me that it isn't the computer's fault it's the people's kneejerk reaction to the computer doing anything they deem as a threat and it must be silenced otherwise they think the terminators are about to take them out.
Forgot to reply to this one but as an artist myself what i noticed from the people that cry about A.I Art is that they are usually the ones who can legit make mid to high 3 figures on their patreons or are in the four figures just drawing art on the internet. They're basically the "1%" of artists bitching downwards because like i said in the first response they feel threatened by the possibility of this new tech finding ways to usurp them when in reality it should be people like me who get next to nothing. People who have quit art because of A.I shouldn't have been doing art to begin with because it isn't the A.I's fault it is their lack of self esteem that any amount of possible disadvantage makes them nuke everything. I miss when artists (even NSFW) run their course for like 5 to 10 years then they just get bored and stop making art but we got these snobs who can sit around drawing or rendering ported models of existing characters on twitter crying about A.I art that doesn't effect them then rage quitting because they hate the prospect of something new in their spaces.

I know Crowley is uneven but I was genuinely shocked at how bad this one was. Opens with the Jenny Jones thing that has been covered by 10,000 YouTubers already (Dire Trip did the best one, I think) and then....closes with fucking Ghostwatch. Ghostwatch!
The Wetten Das thing is more obscure but has also been done a few times by people who don't panic and stop the tape at the second of impact.

To be fair, he did also cover other obscure things like that Chinese man who went on the news to try, and help find his missing wife only for it to be revealed he killed her, ground up her remains, and flushed them down the toilet, and that Japanese journalistic who was murdered on camera by a foreign government during a protest.
The Jenny Jones, and Ghostwatch shit is way overtalked about, but let's not act like that's all he covered.

He's been having more consistent duds recently, the one from a couple months back with the chink or whatever fishing boats that hunted down civilian vessels and claimed they were pirates that he ended appearing to wholeheartedly buy the story about them just being overly paranoid about pirates comes to mind.

I don't think this video was that bad per se I think the issue with it is that most of the cases presented were covered already by lots of people years ago. The only thing that made me really go "Really, nigga?" was how Nick presented the phone call between 911 and the Jenny Jones show murderer in a very "analog horror" fashion with things such as the portrait of the operator being an ominous silhouette you'd see in Mandela Catalogue and the call also being presented like its from that series.
Like for the all pointless discourse and finger wagging done by zoomers about how "Erm..You can't use real life tragedies and deaths for analog horror content because it's crossing the line, okay?!"
that happened in these past few months in the horror community because of that one shitty Sponge Bob analog horror name dropping Steven Hillenburg, they sure have no issues with this.

As it has been said this community wants "safe horror". To me it's what happens when a generation is raised on the internet and mostly if not only the internet so everything they consume comes with layers of unreality or irony to the point they don't register it as being real. It's sort of interesting to think about how these people will watch or talk about actual things going on in the world and have to censor it with baby talk which completely dilutes the subject matter and people for some reason don't see an issue with it inside of the bubble.
UrbanSpook is a dead horse but to me it is the thing that was needed to shake these clowns to their core. Here they are presented with something that doesn't come at them with eye rolls and layers of mitigated safeness in its presentation. It's a contextually realistic scenario of a serial killer with no hyperbole or big scary monsters so the horror of it is too real for them.

To be an autistic nitpick, isn't it sort of implied the serial killer is demonic in some way? And the fact he does so much over-the-top and heinous things yet there's no clues for the police to go on is hard to believe. I don't mind the series, it doesn't bother me that it's "edgy" but that's all it really has going for it. Killer finds some victims, mutilates them in horrid ways, and that's it. At least as far as I last heard.

The absolute fuck it is.
Everyone keeps sucking off how "realistic" the series is, then it'll describe the magical fucking serial killers doing some absolutely looney tunes shit like encasing a grown man in a pile of wax and getting away with no evidence to catch them.

hence why i said contextually realistic compared to a universe where "alternate" humans just exist or weird alien life forms chilling on the planet and are just a part of life. Any of those series' can involve the murder of children (some have) and people are fine with it but Urbanspook disregards that and cuts straight to the edgy murdering which is why people chimped out. Like i said it isn't caked in meandering where the creators are too scared to actually show anything horrifying out of fear of pissing off the soft masses that make up their fanbase.
Regardless what i said isn't indicative of Urbanspook's quality just that it is an example of shock value not hidden behind that much nonsense to where people are somehow ok with it because it involves supernatural shit or big scary monsters.
i believe it is heavily implied but i was more comparing it to how most AH have universes that deal with such supernatural anomalies (Vita Carnis for example) that it becomes less scary when there are multiple ways to get insta gibbed in their worlds at least to me. Urbanspook didn't provide people at first with that much subtext it was a straight forward story about some killer going above and beyond to be as brutal as possible with their murders.

Looking for suggestions on podcasts that cover the paranormal and explain the whole story. It can be "true" or debunked stories, but if you guys know of anything entertaining and say on Spotify, I'd like to hear of it.

Dead Rabbit Radio might not be everyone's cup of tea but I like him. Daily show (though I think he just went on his season break so he's uploading old ones with commentary at the start). He's got alot of heart for what he's doing.

Urbanspook's The Painter does have that strength that is not using explicitly paranormal stuff as the main attraction but rather as an incidental/alluded element sort of like in a lot of Coen bros movies and the subsequent show Fargo, but I do agree that is doesn't fulfil its own potential and that sucks because I think that if it did it could've pissed analog purists even more.
I wrote on my review that The Painter's realism isn't that strong. You have two individuals that can't help but be photographed, go almost exclusively after law enforcement working on their case and now they are leaving DNA on the scene. I'm not saying it fully breaks immersion, I haven't seen anyone sharing my opinions anywhere, but the series itself is too formulaic. Once you notice it takes place in New Orleans and inevitably think of better stories about cults and gratuitous depravity set in the Bayou, The Painter is as mundane as the rest.
I do like the idea of a killer immortalizing their victims in art. Is not very practical, but it could be something really special. Just think about an analog horror that instead of just being a mystery box with dysmorphophobia is a mystery thriller played straight that at least tries to not be only references to Hannibal and Se7en.
Back in my review, I mentioned that I thought the victims not being people forgotten by society rather than randys with families and law enforcement was a missed opportunity. Just think of a Will Graham or Rust Cohle type officer realising that the killer goes through the trouble of learning the names of their victims and makes a painting of them that is both how they died but is also rooted on how they lived or wanted to live. Make the victims people on the fringes, otherwise forgotten by society and that the clues to find the killer are in learning about their lives. The whole 'a single death is a tragedy, a million deaths is a statistic' but where that one death doesn't mean that much. Just imagine a brutal killer that by their MO could just be a wild animal but not only acts with premeditation but displays foresight, abilities and knowledge on different arts that progressively make them seem like an intellectual. A savant murderer. The tapes could be made and watched by the killer in universe, analysing film to never be caught.
That't not what we get but I don't think that's what Urbanspook ever planned anyway. That's kind of the beauty of it. Why do these two monsters paint and how are they so good at it? I hope that this isn't the only project he ever does or feels he has to live up to it because I want to see him double down.
