"Anasi's Goatman Story" | CreepyPasta Storytime 

"You guys don't know how to party"- Goatman

The fact that the author gave the creature a voice comparable to an animal being taught to "talk" instead of a cliche demonic voice or some crap like that is Soooo creative and creepy. It could also imply that it's repeating the voice of someone it could have terrorized in the past. Such good clever writing

To date. This is the scariest creepypasta he's ever narrated. I feel legit fear because of this.

And we're all just like "fucking nope!" Best line ever written.

Even 9 years later, I keep on coming back to this story, it’s just too good

One of my favorite creepypastas simply because the monster isn't absolutely generic, and because it seems a bit more like something a teenage kid would write while trying to recall his story. If that makes sense ._.

Enough is enough! I have had it with all these mutha' fuckin' goatmen, in this mutha' fuckin' trailer!!

This is GOOD story writing, THIS is how you write a scary story. Fear of the unknown and things we can understand is everything. The 'thing' (goatman) in this story never once poses a real threat, but the elements of the unknown are what makes this one of the creepiest stories of all time - Is it a threat? Is it human? What does it want? What does it look like? - we don't know, and the unknown and things that are slightly 'off' are everything

To everyone concerned about the over-abundant swearing, it is actually necessary. At first I hated it and thought it was the author's juvenile attempt to make the story sound intense, but as I listed to it more and more I realized something. A lot of people point out that the author is a graduate of college but is remembering something from the edge of his childhood (he was 16). And already swearing is a mainstay of our culture. Everyone swears like his right here. So there's that point. But here's the second point that really got me and really made me realize just who deep a writer this person actually is. The swearing actually enhances the story and adds depth to the goatman. How? What does the goatman say when he finally speaks? "Let me the fuck in. Stop. Fucking. Playing." It was mimicking them. It sat with them and learned how they spoke. It had no cadence because it was literally like an animal or young child repeating what it has heard adults or other people say in an attempt to fit in or belong. Can you just imagine this story from the goatman's perspective? He is an amalgamation of monster and human alone in the woods. When these guys go camping out there, he blends in when he can and has "friends". The animals in the wood don't like him because he's an abomination, so he blends with the people to know what it's like to belong. To feel community. The reason he was at first standing with his back to them was because he wanted to see how their faces look, to nail down what someone their age would look like. He wasn't freaking them out at first, he was there watching and learning and developing the personas he would use when he'd join them. He never talked before that moment because he couldn't talk. He didn't know how to. If he said the wrong thing or spoke with words common from a different point in time, he probably would have given himself away much sooner. So he only spoke when felt it absolutely necessary and when he was sure he could pass as one of them. He tried to adopt Kira's person but couldn't fully and started heaving, whether out of nervousness or out of something else, I can't say. But he really tried. Then, when Reese is there and the goatman tries to get in, Reese actually manages to shoot the thing. From out perspective that is a good thing and it starts giving off unholy screams, but from it's perspective? "They shot me. My friends shot me" Then it snuck in, again trying to blend, and managed to sleep with them again, every so often doing the heaving thing and again it could be out of child-like excitement or something else such as it trying to keep control of the disguise. Then it walked all the way back tot he house, trying it's best to stay blended and make the most of its last few moments with it's new "friends" then, when only Tanner knew who the goatman was and they looked each other in the eye, was it a threat of don't come back or was like like looking into a pet's eye or a stranger hoping you will return? I know it's so easy to write this off as a well-written creepypasta with a bit too much swearing in it, but if you think about it... it could be a deeper story about the goatman actually being a tragic creepypasta figure wanting to be human but never able to be.

Dude there's just something about this story man this is my 4th time listening to it and it still scares me more than any other creepy pasta

Should re-name this "Anasi's Fucking Goatman story"

I like how the goatman doesn't really do anything to them. He just wanted to hang out, eat human food and sleep indoors.

We need a movie adaptation of this.

So if the Goatman stinks, that means he's probably in rut. When a male goat goes 'in rut' it's the start of his mating cycle. He pisses on himself and tries to get as smelly as possible (for some reason). Neutered goats don't do this. Anyway, I figure this is a sure sign that the Goatman was looking for a mate. That would certainly explain the stunned look on the face of the girl on the road side.

so this is from the humans' perspective in goat simulator right? XD

The Goat man actually is an Amish story, originated early on the XX century, allegedly a couple that "got busy" before marriage, therefore committing a sin, the baby they had was born as a half-goat half-human hybrid, they kept that thing a secret, until the mother, who loved her baby, decided to take hin to the church and the community was like "Yo', that nigga ain't normal" they tried to escape, but the baby tan to the forest, becoming later a Goat man, and I dunno, that's what I've heard.

Genuinely one of the most harrowing stories I've ever heard/read. Even terrified other people by telling it to them on camping trips. It's the way the story doesn't go straight up too outlandish and everything that the creature does you can relate to the fear the characters feel.

Here's what I think was going on. The creature is fully sentient, and had no intention of actually harming the kids. They were in his territory, and he wanted them to leave, so he messed with them until they were too scared to stick around anymore. If the creature wanted to hurt them, he would have, because he had the opportunity to do just that, several times, but he didn't.

Someone should make this into a movie

I foundly remember listening to this on the way home after school during 5-8 grade its been many years since then and I miss those days.

This one actually sent chills up my spine the whole way through. When I was a teenager, I visited some cousins in their mountain home in the forests. I remember them sternly telling me NEVER to go outside after dark, even between the house and the garage (which had been converted into an entertainment room or guest house. Me and the cousins slept in the garage, because they firmly believed we shouldn't head back after dark, and it had been storming. What's crazy is that there are legit weird animals out there that make that 'dog trying to talk' noise that we were hearing. I personally thought it was just the echoes of a donkey warped a bit by echoes in the mountains, but they kept saying otherwise. That made me so nervous , I was triple checking the locks and covering the windows. I am notably superstitious, but in the ghost sense... But that place really made me question myself.

heres a fun drinking game, take a shot every time a "FUCK" is dropped :)

*Calming Down, Listening to the Story* *Rifle Shot Sound* *Flinched* Oh!.....Shit That Scared me!😮

i really like this one, i could listen to it over and over again and still be surprised .

One of the best stories I have listened to.

This guy had a lot of fucks to give!

This could make a good horror movie/short film. Like it's one of the few times not knowing the characters that well would benefit you. The characters in the story didn't know each other that well which is why the Goatman managed to get into the group unnoticed. So if you threw all 12 characters at once and only paid attention to the main character you could easily slip in another person without the audience noticing. It would be hard, but if done write you'd have something pretty creepy.

Definitely keep coming back to this version. It just sounds so much more like a homie telling you a terrifying account.

"Here's my story… 16 I'm black" 😂😂

The way he uses his voice and emotions on each line is what MAKES this

this story > slenderman, jack the killer, and laughing jack

"Make s'mores, drink, kiss on the girls." Is that what people call it these days? Kiss on the girls?

"Eventually, we get BIG ASS STICKS!" Best qoute 2014.

I feel sorry for the goatman. I think he was just lonely. If you are the only goatman, who do you hang with? Do you go to the goatman bar outside of town and pick up goatgirls? No. That's why he disguised himself as one of them. To feel like part of the group.

Where did these stories go.. what happened to the classic style of pasta, everyone writes things so differently now. I mean I'll always love creepypastas but the newer ones just don't have the same vibe. Tell me somebody agrees

Honestly, it kinda sounds like this monster just wanted to hang out (in all seriousness). think about it! all that it did was sneak into the group and stay there with them. It didn't really hurt anyone. It didn't really do anything ether, aside from acting really freaky and screwing with them occasionally. They where more freaked out by the fact that it existed then anything else. I think it just wanted to have fun with the people in its woods.

It's MANBEARPIG

My cousin Seth showed me this video when he stayed over one night. This story has always creeped me out, this is my second time coming back to it in years, have no idea why I thought about this until now

...but who was cabin!?

This is one of a very small handful of stories that my friend and I found ourselves holding onto each other during. This is one of THE BEST creepypastas ever written.

This creepypasta was like the first high you get and can never replicate. I've never found another story half as good as this one, and I've spent a decade looking.

Its been over a year i think since ive heard of this exact type of story. Nothing fucking beats this.

question; why the fuck are there no goat simulator jokes???

This is literally awesome, I've listened to it so many times and it never gets old.

this would be a great ass movie

This is one of the best CreepyPastas I've read in YEARS.

This is literally the only story that puts me on edge I shouldn't be listening to this alone

I went to olive garden and ordered creepypasta.

"We get big ass sticks" Lol wut? The way he had said that made me fall off my chair somehow.

That was one of the best creepy pastas I've ever heard...

This story will never fail to make me shook

Despite the overused cursing I think this is one of the scariest pastas on here. This had me petrified a year ago and it's set me on edge just now even though it's daylight and I'm wide awake.

And we're all like "FUCKIN' NOPE!". LMAO.

Turns out the goat man is a homeless man that has a-d-d and has back problems

I hope the people complaining about swearing realize this story was from 4chan, hence the extreme swearing.

The thing about this story is, the goatman didn't actually kill or even hurt anyone. It just acted a little creepy and hung out with them a bit. Sure this story is very creepy and disturbing but the goatman might not have even had any malicious intent; he might've just wanted to hang out a bit. The cooked blood smell might've just been from an injury or it could've been someone else cooking in the distance. Still an awesome story. I like how Mrcreepypasta changes his voice and vocabulary to suit the story, hell, read the story "the black cat" and notice a huge difference in delivery.

I've lost count of the number of times I've listened to this story. This is possibly my favorite work done by MCP.

So it's a 100% peaceful monster that just likes to fuck with you? Sounds like a cool guy.

I grew up listening to this so now this has a weird nostalgia feelin to it and I love it so much

Thats an incredible story. I love the massive plot twist at the end. Great job!

Rule one of the Goatman, no one talks about te Goatman.....

Well fuck, I'm going camping with a group of my friends in a few weeks, I can't just back down and look like a wimp. The damn goatman is going to be on my mind all the time now :I

goatman, i'm dancing on your bridge, it's my bridge now

I remember listening to this when I was 13/14, still love to give it a listen every so often

take a shot each time he says "fucking".

This version is so good. Idk why he ever bothered to do a newer reading of this story.

It's 4 in the morning, I'm by myself listening while I play Black Ops, sitting in a chair in the middle of the room with 3 doorways behind me and I'm like "This is a pretty good story" and 5 minutes later I was turning on lights and locking doors and sitting with my back against a wall

That was a fantastic story! It was one of the first in awhile that has really creeped me out. As I like to go camping a lot, I'll remember to count the people :D

"We stopped shitting bricks." Okay I'm dying of laughter.

The nostalgia from this story is unmatched

This and no end house are the best creepy pastas I have read.

9:56 WHADAFUKIZRONG

I love these kinds of creepypasta. Does anybody have any suggestions of stories with a similar vibe?

This NEEDS an animation!

Even know this is 7 years old and I have listened to this multiple times it’s the best horror story that I have ever listened to

Her name is Kira? KIRA? KIRA!!!!!! The world is under Kira's rule again....

literally one of the scariest ones i've ever heard

This acctually scared me, and I NEVER get scared.

This is the greatest scary story ever written

The only thing I got from this story was "F-Bomb"

You should call this The Fucking Anasi's Goatman Story.

>>Dude tells his dad there's some animal in the woods, not a monster. My boy, more people need this foresight.

The reason I don’t want this made into a film or whatever is because of the VOICE. The TONE. The narrator’s way of writing is what really makes this feel real and plausible. No waxing poetic or remembering lines perfectly. Absolutely raw. Ugh, I love it.

the best creepypasta til this day 💯🙌🏻

Time to read all the comments.

Still probably my favorite creepy pasta after all these years. It’s got everything: uncanny valley, mass paranoia, the after-the-fact reveals. Gives just enough information to remain suspenseful but doesn’t ruin the story by trying to make sense of all of it. It’s a perfect ghost story.

I wonder how many of those rake and skinwalker stories would have ended differently if they'd just offered the damn thing a brat and a beer....

he just wanted a night with some friends. why must you be so rude to it?

...Who in fuck's name FALLS ASLEEP during something like this? No, man. You're awake until dawn, no question.

Wow,the adrenaline rushes you get from this story,am I right?

this is one of my all-time favorite creepypastas

when is hollywood gonna realize real horror movies are found in creepy pasta plots. we need more folk story horror

This will always be an amazing story and a great narration of it. It's so scary, and I've listened to it multiple times already but it's still good and creepy every time.

I live really close to Huntsville, Alabama. and I'm listening to this my back step, at 4:00 AM...it's fuckthisshit o'clock.

Changing one letter of the title makes "A nazi's Goatman Story". :D

Call me crazy but I love listening to these stories late at night as I’m drifting off to sleep. I can’t stand any of the other creepy pasta channels. MCP just does unmatched narration. I tip my hat to you, sir.

22:48, I'd be at the door saying "NO SWEARING- GOATMAN. YOU HAVE A POTTY MOUTH" Then I'd tell it- it could come in after it takes a shower.

After so many years, I still come back to this one.

"We get big ass sticks" I'm dying xD
