Best Horror Stories of 2025 | CREEPYPASTA ANTHOLOGY

Good evening, brave souls, and thank you for finding your way back to this quiet corner of the dark. Tonight is not just another journey into unease, it’s a gathering of echoes, a candlelit reflection on the stories that lingered longest and cut the deepest. I’ll be your guide as we step once more into the unsettling, where familiar paths end abruptly and something patient waits just out of sight.

So, make yourself comfortable, draw a little closer to the glow of the screen, and let the world outside fade away. This is my Best of 2025: a year of whispers in the dark, of fears rediscovered, and of nightmares you couldn’t quite forget. Take a breath, steady your nerves… and let us descend together, one last time.

Tonight’s first terrifying tale of demonic insanity is ‘Necrosleep’, by Lemniscate64, kindly shared with me via the Creepypasta Wiki and read here under the conditions of the CC-BY-SA license.
