Hyde; a history,.: Difference between revisions

 

The original version of his other apparence was in October 2011, and has since grown nearly as popular as the Granite Bees version. Although less scary, this version of Hyde has many adoring fans and many infamousies. The most thing people critisize is that he was a product of his time. With characters like Jeff The Killer, SONIC.EXE, etc, it was obvious that Hyde was a concoction of the many troupes and traits of other pasta characters. This worked in its favor though, even going so far as this version Hyde's fans fighting with the fans of the Granite Bees version as to what was the TRUE depiction of Hyde. This hyde also came with a backstory, which was made in early 2012 by scarywench829, which reads as follows. "Hydes backstory is a dark one. Although a monster, he never means to do any of it. Hes controlled and forced to do bad things because of that he is a werewolf. When he was younger, he got bullied a lot in highschool. Two of these bullies went so far as to stage Hyde (who used to be named Jay Jekyll) into being attacked by wolves. The meaner one, Marcy, tricked him into going in a secret room behind the school theater. The nicer bully, Lacey, tried to say stop but it didnt work. Marcy was too mean to stop. When Jay Jekyll went in, he got attacked and bitten by werewolf. And then at the hospital, the doctors gave him the wrong formula, making him go crazy and insane. He seeked revenge on Marcy, and a while after killed her by eating her. Now he roams the lands and eats and kills whoever gets on his bad side."

In the midst of Hydes popularity came some mystery to it though. In July of 2012 there were posts dotted around the internet saying that Hyde was real. This isnt out of the ordinary, people lie on the inernet all the time. But the way they described an encounter were all the same or similar. One even recalls a string of murders that happend in real life, and tried to connect them to Hyde. One post reads "I've been doing research on where Hyde comes from and it's abilities. Lately, I have found instances of people describing or even having powers similar to Hyde. This was before Hyde came out so this isn't a fan girl thing either. They say people like that are "avatars" and are aligned with some higher powers. Is this true?" Natrually, this was debunked by the community as people found this post ridicolous. Thankfuly, the original poster of that deleted it and themselves from the internet.

 

All in the past, Hyde was an icon in early online horror. Although with the rise of cringe culture, he faded into semi obscurity like many other creepypastas. However, due to nostalgia being a trend many people have come back to loving this character in both of its forms. And like me, many new fans have surfaced. In conclusion, Hyde was and is a phenomanom that has scared and will scare generations to come.
