And this week I’m highlighting stories from a single author who is well known for his stories in the genre, Christopher Maxim. He’s written close to thirty stories on Reddit from what I’ve been able to find, and those stories of his that have been posted to Creepypasta.com almost always score over 8 or 9 out of 10 stars, which is quite an accomplishment on the site for a single author with so many stories. Tonight I’ll be sharing three of Christopher Maxim’s tales… and the last is considered by many a “classic” Creepypasta.
