A rather uneventful story with the main "horror" revolving around a cartoon character dying (not in a gruesome way), cartoon characters crying (not in a disturbing way), and cartoon characters with realistic, bloodshot eyes (not in a hyper-realistic way?) It's light on violence for a lost media creepypasta (but not on stopwatches), which makes it all the more hilarious the protagonist claimed to have been scarred by the episode, which itself isn't even ''too'' far off from a normal episode of the show. Maybe there's some irony with that, but perhaps that would be giving the author too much credit.

Yet another horribly written story in the endless sub-genre of "person's paranormal encounter with gruesome piece of children's media." There are many questionable moments in this one, like when the music gets too loud, they put in earplugs instead of turning the volume down. Or even worse, instead of calling for help when Jacob is killed by Mario in real life (yes this actually happens), his sister runs back to the GameStop where the game was bought and asks the cashier questions about it. This is where the cashier reveals the game also killed his friends, and everyone currently in the store are victims of the game as well. Which begs the question why was GameStop selling this game, and why did the cashier give it away to the main characters knowing it would likely kill one of them? It's a truly mind-numbingly awful story up there with some of the worst creepypasta out there, which explains why it easily won the poll.

{| class="wikitable"
A good example of a creepypasta that is almost entirely reliant on gore and gruesome imagery in a kids cartoon for cheap scares. Though, none of it is scary and lacks any tension or suspense. It also follows the same generic template most stories in this genre follow: protagonist discovers piece of media and is shocked by its violence, followed by said protagonist discarding the media.

It's another one of those creepypastas about a children's cartoon that becomes inexplicably violent and begins to communicate with the protagonist in some way. At the end it's seemingly implied the episode was a hallucination caused by a tumor, which may have been an effective premise if the story weren't so poorly written.

|[[Amazing World of Gumball - The Grieving]]
You know you're reading a laughably bad story when most of the scares revolve around the tired 666 trope. The series of events are nonsensical, which is made worse by the atrocious grammar, creating a story so fundamentally broken that it's almost charming. It's hard to take any of it seriously, which makes it one of the best examples of a so-bad-it's-good creepypasta.

Our protagonist mistakenly summons Xelex, an ancient being that's slaughtered millions of people. The police have a shootout with the creature that goes horribly wrong, where he reveals that even Zalgo fears him. The protagonist is seemingly more shocked at this tidbit rather than the ancient creature firing blue energy beams at a police squad. After retreating home, the protagonist sets the wall on fire after Xelex engulfs the house in darkness. Xelex finds this brave or something so he spares the protagonist from his wrath, the only person he's ever spared. Xelex then disappears after threatening to come back in the future. Like many bad creepypastas, it fails at any real sense of terror but excels in unintentional hilarity.

Right out of the gate you can tell something is horribly wrong with this story. The prose is borderline unreadable, rapidly switching from first-person to third-person in the same sentence, which is confusing to say the least. This is due to the story being a victim of Google Translate, as it was originally written in Spanish. The massacre of the English language aside, the story itself is terrible. Right after Liu proposes to his girlfriend Susan, she is shot dead by a random criminal. She ends up dying in the hospital, which sends Liu into a murderous rampage, killing ''everyone'' in the hospital, including bed-ridden patients. Liu faces no challenges killing anyone he wants, and since the story is from his point of view, it makes him incredibly overpowered and dull. A must-read garbage creepypasta of the slasher variety.

Somehow, the number 113 showed up in the games when played on the Ninterror 64. I looked at the phone number. 100-116-3527. 113. I also examined the 1 that almost always appears as the first number of a phone number. Suddenly , I remembered an easter egg put in every Pixar movie: A113. This stood for a CalTech classroom where Tim Burton and John Lassetter attended classes. The first letter of the alphabet is A. 1113<nowiki>=</nowiki>A113. Wow."}}
|'''35''' || '''49.3%'''

The protagonist discovers the <s>Nintendo 64</s> "Ninterror 64" he bought for $2 plays glitched and gruesome versions of his N64 games. He marathons about a dozen of the games to see all the horrifying new side-effects, such as sudden violence, cryptic language, and lots of explosions for... some reason. As expected with bad creepypasta of this caliber, many instances of the infamous [[Trollpasta Wiki:Trollpasta Clichés|stopwatch cliché]] appear throughout. And as if the story weren't bad enough, the protagonist discovers the N64 is likely haunted by the antique shop owner's dead son who loved creepypasta. Yeah, there's nothing else to say.

|12 || 17.0%
A friend's infatuation with Jigglypuff turns him into a murderous weirdo for... some reason. There's not much of a story, but what is there is bizarre. The knife fight the main character has with the friend is especially comical. A short but quintessential fail.

!Total
Much like every other bad video game creepypasta, it relies heavily on gruesome imagery within the game as a crutch. Predictably, it ends with the protagonist proclaiming he'll never play the series ever again. There's a funny scene where the game cartridge contains a note inside by the dad that says "you're next." That tells you all you need to know about this story.

<div style="background: #f2cbcb; padding: 8px;"><b style="font-size:130%;">February (Sonic-themed): [[Shadow]]</b>
A story that implies the protagonist's friend is killed by an Enderman. In real life. That and the fact it portrays gorey Minecraft videos as genuinely terrifying makes it no surprise it won the poll. It's a doozy.

|-
Unlike most video game pastas, this one involves a character from the game wreaking havoc in the real world. The story becomes more absurd as it progresses, including a scene where the Tails Doll wields a chainsaw against the protagonist. The outlandish material and horrid writing makes it a laughable fail in every way.

|[[All My Fault]]
Perhaps the most infamous video game creepypasta, it's no surprise Sonic.exe won the poll in a landslide. It's a tedious and poorly written slog that relies on clichés and pointless violence for horror. The author's meltdown in response to the story's deletion from Creepypasta Wiki has also gained infamy. In recent years the character of Sonic.exe has managed to stay popular and overshadow the story itself.

This is due to the story being a victim of Google Translate, as it was originally written in Spanish. The massacre of the English language aside, the story itself is terrible. Right after Liu proposes to his girlfriend Susan, she is shot dead by a random criminal. She ends up dying in the hospital, which sends Liu into a murderous rampage, killing ''everyone'' in the hospital, including bed-ridden patients. Liu faces no challenges killing anyone he wants, and since the story is from his point of view, it makes him incredibly overpowered and dull. A must-read garbage creepypasta of the slasher variety.

{{email|"113 Stars. 113 instead of 103. 113 seconds of falling. 1.1, with 3 cheat codes cracked. 113 eggs to to be painted with gorilla blood. Somehow, the number 113 showed up in the games when played on the Ninterror 64. I looked at the phone number. 100-116-3527. 113. I also examined the 1 that almost always appears as the first number of a phone number. Suddenly , I remembered an easter egg put in every Pixar movie: A113. This stood for a CalTech classroom where Tim Burton and John Lassetter attended classes. The first letter of the alphabet is A. 1113<nowiki>=</nowiki>A113. Wow."}}
 
The protagonist discovers the <s>Nintendo 64</s> "Ninterror 64" he bought for $2 plays glitched and gruesome versions of his N64 games. He marathons about a dozen of the games to see all the horrifying new side-effects, such as sudden violence, cryptic language, and lots of explosions for... some reason. As expected with bad creepypasta of this caliber, many instances of the infamous [[Trollpasta Wiki:Trollpasta Clichés|stopwatch cliché]] appear throughout. And as if the story weren't bad enough, the protagonist discovers the N64 is likely haunted by the antique shop owner's dead son who loved creepypasta. Yeah, there's nothing else to say.

{{email|"I saw my friend in a pink Jigglypuff sweater. I gave a little giggle until I broke into laughter. But I stopped right when I saw it. A knife. His pocket knife. He swore only to use as a whittling knife."}}
 
A friend's infatuation with Jigglypuff turns him into a murderous weirdo for... some reason. There's not much of a story, but what is there is bizarre. The knife fight the main character has with the friend is especially comical. A short but quintessential fail.

{{email|"To this day, I cannot play Super Mario Bros... And the other morning, I woke up to see 'MaRIo' carved into my arm."}}
 
Much like every other bad video game creepypasta, it relies heavily on gruesome imagery within the game as a crutch. Predictably, it ends with the protagonist proclaiming he'll never play the series ever again. There's a funny scene where the game cartridge contains a note inside by the dad that says "you're next." That tells you all you need to know about this story.

{{email|"I reluctantly clicked it, and the video started. What we saw horrified us. It was us, as characters in Minecraft, along with all of our family."}}
A story that implies the protagonist's friend is killed by an Enderman. In real life. That and the fact it portrays gorey Minecraft videos as genuinely terrifying makes it no surprise it won the poll. It's a doozy.

{{email|"The Tails Doll was furiously slashing at the door, a piece of the door flew out of the window and the Doll's dark eyes were glaring at me."}}
 
Unlike most video game pastas, this one involves a character from the game wreaking havoc in the real world. The story becomes more absurd as it progresses, including a scene where the Tails Doll wields a chainsaw against the protagonist. The outlandish material and horrid writing makes it a laughable fail in every way.

{{email|"I couldn't call Stephen Hillenburg because he died, so I decided to call Paul Tibbit. He told me that some SpongeBob hater nearby Nickelodeon Studios must've hijacked the place and created it."}}
 
A ridiculous and melodramatic story about SpongeBob going into a deep depression after Patrick dies in a plane crash. The poor writing, odd moments, and terrible dialogue are sure to get a laugh out of anyone.

{{email|"Sonic is the very embodiment of evil, he tortures people who play his game in more ways than one and then when he gets bored he drags you into the game, literally drags you to Hell, where he can play with you always, as his toy...."}}
 
Perhaps the most infamous video game creepypasta, it's no surprise Sonic.exe won the poll in a landslide. It's a tedious and poorly written slog that relies on clichés and pointless violence for horror. The author's meltdown in response to the story's deletion from Creepypasta Wiki has also gained infamy. In recent years the character of Sonic.exe has managed to stay popular and overshadow the story itself.
