"A Strange Church Appeared in My Hometown" Scary Stories from The Internet | Creepypasta 

I hope everyone is having a good day! let me know what you think of the story and make sure to like and share (if you want to) My song from the intense part: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-tY3nZ53d7Bw.html

I love how this is a commentary of Adulthood and the smaller kids are literally hiding in fear while the teenagers seek refuge in High School, but otherwise the smaller kids try to live and enjoy their lives. Great narration and excellent writing. Thank you both!

I saw Matt Dymerski as author and I already know it's going to be legendary! A true legend of Nosleep authors!

Dymerski is one of my favorites as of recent. Really love the "weird things appearing in normal places" kind of genre.

His mother saying "I hope they don't discard your flesh", literally made me pause and go WTF.

I spend a lot of time outside in the spring and summer hiking, working in the garden, and whatever else. I always have some sort of story playing. Your channel is one of my favorites.

Hey mate. Terrific story as usual. I have this special request for you to narrate this story called "a nursery rhyme called Snippity Snap". It was the first creepypasta story I heard the one that got me into listening to this genre ever since and led me to your channel. So it would be a nice surprise if you could narrate that story in your style someday in this channel. Anyways keep up the good work and have a good day mate....

I love when Somnium does a narration with Spirit Voices. Those two are the best.

I was born and raised in a cult, and have studied them for just under a decade now. I have mixed feelings about this story. On the one hand, it's well written and has a lot of symbolism to what real cult life is like. It's like an educational story about cults, made for those who know absolutely nothing about them. Kind of like an "ancient Egypt for kids" book; a complex subject narrowed down to the fundamentals and presented in an interesting way. SPOILERS* However, actual cult culture is much more sinister than this, and in my opinion, much more scary. For one thing, education was deemed as the key to avoiding getting brainwashed. But it doesn't matter how smart you are or how much you know. *Anyone* can fall victim to this and become a fully believing cult member. This was nicely hinted at towards the very end. For another, cult tactics are finely tuned to gaining new followers. New followers = more money and devotion to the head hancho(s). When looking for new recruits, they start newbies on easy-mode. Put their best foot forward, so to speak. All the weird and crazy sh** isn't revealed to the person until much later when they're already devoted and are less likely to question it. Whereas in this, it was all basically thrown right in the MC's face from the start. Finally, and probably the most terrifying of all is the fact that there's nothing supernatural about cults. There's no 'big bad guy' controlling you with the forces of evil or whatever. There's no 'otherworldly' presence pulling the strings of feeble human minds. There's just greedy, power hungry humans who manage to convince other humans to follow them and their version of god. Anyone can fall prey to them because these average people capitalize on our basic human longing for community and happiness, and with that power these leaders cause the death and suffering of thousands, all while lining their pockets. One thing this story nailed though: cults are a hell of a drug.

Why is THIS the role for me that people decided to simp over? 😂 I'm too ace for this... but these comments are hilarious lol! Thanks for having me as always, Somni! ❤ BTW--the soundscape when the MC is throwing napalm in the church was SO GOOD! Absolutely epic music and SFX! 😄

Dymerski has this style that no other can truly replicate. He’s so intricate with his work it makes me shudder with excitement when another of his stories are posted

Holy-! This story sent chills down my spine. This story kinda reminds me of what cults can be like, which makes it 100x scarier. Awesome story and awesome narration tho ❤

You know it’s a good day when there’s a new Dark Somnium upload

Dark & Matt- kudos! You created a work of art. The story- as it continued, what was happening became clear. Adults- with less independent thought, were pulled in effortlessly. Children were ‘immune’. And the two boys right on the crest of adulthood- still strong enough to resist, but also feeling the pull. This is how you tell a story. And Dark- your narration was brilliant, as always. I’ve just recently come across this genre- and you are *by far* the best narrator, in every way possible. Thank you both!

Rom? I think your voice inflections are broadening! I second guessed one of the voices was someone else! 😂 It's so awesome when you all get together, such an amazing all star cast 😎

Falling asleep listening to this gave me one of the most surreal nightmares where I felt trapped. 10/10 would listen again!

I really hope there's a part 2 in the works! Absolutely haunting and I love it for that ❤

I watch these videos all the time while I work on my art, sometimes listening for 10+ hours a day. One thing I notice in each one is the way the story draws me in, especially with the music. The subtle notes in the back can make you feel so calm yet so terrified without any words even needed sometimes. It’s a true talent to make pretty much any story an interesting one.

I would love to hear a sequel to this one!

Kind of unrelated to the story but there’s this little town we drive through every now and then and it has a church with NO windows. Like it’s basically a huge white triangle with a cross, no windows, no cars there ever, and only one set of doors that are also pure white. No idea what it’s deal is but it’s always unsettled me.

Fantastic!! I listen to a few select narrators. When you post something new...it is such a different experience. Your voice, your phrasing, your music, the quality folks that you have as guests....you're just the best! Thank you for what you do. I've missed you terribly. Thank you for coming back, thank you for being you Ronnie. Truly a fan, a follower, a devotee? Your little insomniac.

Reminds me of the story about the dude standing across the street, love these type of stories that have a deeper meaning but can also just be taken at face value as a spooky story.

It's impossible to not love your work and the sound designs

“Beware of the false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves."

Hey man just wanna say how much i appreciate you putting so much effort into your narrations and I love you a lot. Have a good day mate.

Honestly, the theme of independant thought being the enemy of total control goes beyond just the story here and that's very cool

Your voice is so soothing, I have severe depression and anxiety and these help me fall asleep thank you for your work!

Exceptional story and great narration from everybody involved! My favorite thing was the whole instinctual reasoning vs belief. Adults succumbed to blind belief, kids relied on logic to survive. While older teenagers were caught in the middle.

This story was amazing! It reminds so much of certain Sarkicism stories within the SCP universe. Love it!

I know it’s not “linked”, but I’d like to think this is in the same dimension as the other hell stories. Instead of using massive armies in every world they try and conquer. They use this as a low budget way of taking over other Earths.

That last story really struck a deep seeded fear within me, it’s always such a rush to listen to your narrations. Big props to you!🍻

your channel is a blessing that keeps giving, never ceases to amaze me how good the voice distortion is. you truly take editing to another level

I'm in college and tend to listen to your videos during study sessions, most of the time I have grown accustomed to working with the small narrating voice whispering in my ear while my mind goes to work. Every now and then, the sudden noises snaps me back into reality and I often use it as a sign to take a quick break, it's silly but effective and has helped me keep my brain awake - even when I need to sleep sometimes ♡

Thanks again! I know these are scary stories but I always listen to relax! I get scared sometimes but I love that feeling

Absolutely loved this writing! The narration, presented voice acting and overall sound induced such vivid and clear imagery that left me hungry for more. Thank you all for your work and sharing it with us here.

As I’ve started to watch less shows and listen to more stories over time, a lot of people always ask me how they keep my attention or are able to paint enough of a picture to be better than shows…well, ladies and gentlemen, Dark just showed exactly how that’s possible. Thank you very much for a phenomenal narration

DS, you've been putting some absolute bangers lately and I've been enjoying every minute of it!

I don’t know why but when Spirit Voices said “if you don’t work hard, you’re garbage.” I laughed out loud and said sorry right after even though it was just me listening lol

oh man! Another wonderful master piece with spirit voices and romnex! Well done, Ronnie ❤️ this was amazing but then again they always are. Thank you 😊

@23:27 " If you don't work hard, your garbage" ayy that's a bar lol 🤣

"independent thought" is the antithesis of the local town "church". Real big brain stuff here, super subtle and original.

I literally screamed when I heard Lucy's voice!!!

The narration is excellent. I've been listening for over a year I believe. Thanks for getting me thru the work day. Also I have listened to the left right game story at least 2 times even tho it's long. That is my absolute favorite. ❤ highly recommend to anyone who missed it, find it and listen. You won't be disappointed.

"If Heaven was a place of spirit, Hell was a place of flesh; and humans were the unlucky minds caught between" New favorite quote. Rings very very true.

I love the symbolism/commentary in this!! And your narration makes it even better!!!

Now that is scary - a bloody rite of passage from childhood to adulthood. A story well-made. Thank you for the great upload

DS always picks some of the best . Once again he did not disappoint.

Absolutely fantastic metaphoric horror -- the monotony of modern Capitalist hegemony, oppressive dominant systems, the loss of childhood wonder, empathy and independent thought, strict and extremist beliefs and structures, take your pick or find your own. I think everyone will be able to relate to this. We should all strive to be like the narrator and break the systems that we learned were inevitable if they are harming those less powerful than us. "Their truth is not my truth."

Great narration and story ! Some times I get spooked as I work in a building at night but I just can’t stop lol keep it up !

This one is my new favorite story, it definitely needs a part 2!! Keep up the good work!

Yes! Just in time. Driving all over the place for work right now. Nothing better to pass the time than listening to your stuff.

That was amazing, Ronnie! I just finished it (started it on my lunch hour!)

One of the most interesting stories I’ve heard in a while. Amazing narration as always and an amazing story.

Sir, you are a master of your craft! I can't name another narrator who puts Soo much effort into detail. ❤

Will they make a series of this story? I certainly hope so, but damn this story is ducking fantastic.

Wow I love this one. My favorite stories are always the ones that are written the best and have the better characters. This is one of them. Giving massive silent hill vibes a guy who comes back to a town that he’s been gone for so long and everything has changed. So dope!!!!

As a guy who graduated magna cum laude with a media studies degree, man do I find this story ironic, as College was arguably the place with the least independent thought. It became clear what kind of allegory this story was going for, but it just doesn't seem to match to the reality of it.

Taking a dump in a 7/11 right now while on my way back home thanks for the narration

His mom's voice is wayyy to seductive. I'm positive I'm not the only dude who thought this

These stories are so good. They could literally be turned into short tv series. I would definitely watch it.

That was a really good story, I hope to see a sequel.

I just want to say thank you for having this channel. I had a 12 hour drive and listened to you the entire time. My fav story was the school lockdown! I actually didn’t much care for the one you commissioned (secret space station) only because I don’t like mixing space with monsters, for me space is scary because it’s inhospitable to any life so its very presence is daunting; and aliens are scary because they represent the unknown. But it was still written well. Thank you again!!!

Oooh I hear sweet Lucy's voice! ❤

This one was a real treat! The writing was very engaging, and your narration was totally the perfect fit for the story.

Ooh excellent! I can't sleep & it's 3am in Australia 🐨. Perfect timing for this brilliant story!

That was mind blowing. Here I was thinking his sister was ☠️. Hopefully there's more to this in the future

That was so goddamn good!!! To whoever wrote this, if you read this message, please give us a part 2!

Bruh, when the music dropped, I had chills.

i dont comment often but i eagerly await your narations everyday, your narations are so good and the stories you choose are always top quality

Yes another awesome story! I like how it shows us how adults and children see the world differently and are thus affected in different ways depending on what happens. The concept of a dystopian society made up by an eldritch being of endless magnitude in a world of pure fear is awesome and horrifying.

Always look forward to your uploads. Keep up the great work!

Holy crap that was awesome! Super bonus for Spirit Voices!!!

Omg this story was amazing and the narrations perfect as always! You all did great! Love this cult/religion style horror!

I would love to see this as a series! So many towns to save….

Yes, I love scary church stories!!

oh man, the sound effects REALLY added to this story in particular. it was all so gross and squishy and crunchy, it makes the mental image even sharper. I admire your attention to detail so much!

jehovahs witnesses

Just want you to know how much I appreciate the time and effort you put into these stories and thank you for feeding my addition!! Great story

Sometimes the real monsters are the religious and social institutions we made along the way.

I wasn’t planning to listen to any stories this morning, but since it’s Dark Somnium & Co… I am.

Hi, I'm relatively new to your channel, but I put your stories on EVERY night, I'm totally addicted to the content, and the calm, realistic way you tell them. There have been a few that I've listened to a few times because they were so good. I particularly liked the story about the person working in the museum for rich people, the story about the "whistler" walking past the house every night, and the bartender that served special drinks to his patrons for their stories. I'm fascinated with your stories and storytelling!!!!! Please keep up the good work!!!! Also....what would it entail reading with you???? I'm quite interested in finding out how, because i think id be really good at it!!!!!

That was pretty good, very Stephen king ish. Looking forward to the final chapter of the settlement series.

I've only started to binge listen to your stories, this BY FAR is the best ever.

I love your channel so much, I've been on a binge this whole week. I'm so glad you posted, its the best way to start my morning. Specially on a rainy day!

This story was great, I hope there is a sequel!

This gave me The Stand vibes for sure and I consider that to be a great compliment.

there's just something about his videos that i just keep watching, maybe its the ambiance or the music, Sound effects? i don't know what u do but keep up the good shit, regardless if you take a week because its just really short Christmases in that case

Love your stories the voice actors and the background music and sounds u use are amazing. Are you confusing the fight story it left off on such a good cliffhanger.

I get so excited whenever I see a new upload!! Thanks to your music and voice I can actually relax and fall asleep regularly haha. Keep up the amazing work!

Your stories really help me calm down when I'm going through shit. Thank you.

I friggin love the music used at 35. I've seen it come back more than once and it 100000% achieves the desired effect.

Perfect thing to complete my chill day!!! Thanks for posting ♥♥♥

This one was great. It even has room for a sequel.

I know that for every narration to be perfect, it needs time and careful planning, but it's just not enough 😢, every time I reach the end of a narration I always feel like crying because I know that I'll have to wait a while before a new one is released 😭😭😭 Awesome narration, though 🎉👍🏾

This has a "In the Mouth of Madness' feel to it! I really like it.

Yes! This is the level of story and narration I'm tryna reach! Good work man.

Awesome story and I'm happy to see how much your channel has grown since you first hit 5k subscribers!

the music that appeared when the napalm was throwin was such an amazing touch

hell yeah posted right on my way home from a good hike

Yes thanks for another great story somnium
