Right! LOL!

Jurassic Jordan hes just trying to sound like he wasn’t scarred by what happened

Troupes of creepypasta

😂😂🤣I thought I was the only one who noticed.

Welp not "Everything" per se. When you read the story it gets pretty twisted on that last line when you search that Speicher roughly translates to memory and that the narrator states that his memory is hazy. My interpretation is that the narrator went in denial and buried his memory on what really happened which is probably them murdering michael only to be forgotten on the back of his mind with the lock "Speicher" welp dunno might be wrong but thats just my 2 cents lol

Oh my gosh I was just thinking that LMAO

So, SirTellaTale, is your favorite food Nutella? I'm so sorry ‹:/

Idk about that one chief

Like 1999

Agreed

Clear is “my friends and I murdered an innocent kid”

@ISitOn MyArm haha

DJ 2011 this honestly makes so much sense that I don’t see how this isn’t it

That seems so much more likely. I was so confused. Seeing how I kept thinking about how ragged, creepy and worn the bear was, my head was eluding to the paranormal. As in, since the bear was damaged, and was perhaps possessed, it took revenge on Michael when he was finally alone with him. Why would the teddy bear head be bloody? Why did he panick when the bear was destroyed? Why was he so disheveled and pale/underweight? Was it because of the long term possession of him or the bear? But those are my only clues to think it was paranormal. Also, how did they not notice any blood or evidence, like the floorboard, when all the campers in Blue Ridge had to retrieve their items from the cabin before leaving? Did the police/camp not thoroughly search through the place? Seems like he would have been noticed far earlier. I don't know. I'm thinking on this too much at 5 AM LOL

Excellent theory. Only question I have here though is narrator’s seeming not understanding of the speicher note.

@@VictorRobotov00 that's my question. It seemed so out of place if this was a bunch of 10 year olds beating another kid to death accidentally or on purpose. I just don't see it plausible for those kids to murder the kid, find a hiding place (floorboard), put him in there with his stuffed animal and plates that they would have needed to use for another week or more, write the mysterious note, stuff it in the bear's head, reseal it, clean up the mess (because he says there's a lot of blood), maybe change, then get back to the mess hall in less than an hour. I mean... I don't know. That's why I thought supernatural culprit.

yes, that would explain a lot.

No

And how the parents reacted “did I do something wrong?”

The note literally translates to "storage". It's a false friend for you as the memory of a computer is called "Speicher". As in "Data Storage". The german word for memory is "Erinnerung" or "Gedächtnis" could work too. Though, I guess the author just made the same mistake translating it.

There’s a thing in psychology called repressed memory. It’s not a disorder. However there’s is also a thing called false memory (aka a made up memory). Ironically both of them have been proven to exist. The whole story wouldn’t surprise me if as a group they killed michael or had an unfortunate accident bullying him and then they tried to cover it up(group mentality causes ppl to sometimes due evil things like look at the famous Stamford prison experiment, wardens were fairly cruel and got carried away with wanting yo belong to the role they were given). Either way the trauma of the whole situation and guilt is definitely enough, especially in a kid, to bring on repressed memories. Explains why the narrator had been seeing psychiatrists and stuff.

This really does make so much sense, but I just can’t get behind that theory seeing how obvious it would’ve been that they were the murderers and the author doesn’t mention any at all dealing with the police.

@@christopherbrown8757 It might not have been this obvious. It could have been a stranger, from police's pov.

Hmmm i just realized that.

I'd be surprised if that wasn't intentional. Although Myers *was* pretty good at standing up for himself as a kid, he took no shit from his older sister. :P

Duin Forodamar *clap clap*

same

@@WaspCameraInSpringfield well michel Myers was a very short quiet child

Karissa Bianconi I’m only an hour

Well then tell me, did this actually happen?

Well I wasn’t born even close to that time so I can’t say for 100% but just for u I looked up a lot of 1978 newspaper articles in Boswell about Boy Scouts and disappearances and luckily it isn’t a true story. But low key I wish it was true just to add to the creepy factor

Hoss Peck tell me about it. I always say this but nobody ever agrees with me, but more disturbing things need to happen in the areas that I live. Who doesn’t like true, creepy stories to tell around a camp fire. Honestly, I am one of those people who would choose to live in a house I know is haunted.

If it helps, there is a lot of creepy shit thats happened in PA. Centralia is popular, I went there a long time ago when it was less known about and it was so eerie

I know, the protagonist is a real piece of shit

That would be a good explanation, however still don't know what "spiker" means.

@@jeffersonsteelflex3056 He said it translates to memory I think

My questions... Why would they write a note saying speicher and put It in the bear in the first place? And nothing was said about their language and what not. Doesn't make sense. And they'd need their items for food for the rest of the stay, why put them there? And these 10 yo's somehow also knew about the loose floor boards and had the capability of cleaning a LOT pick blood and hiding bloody clothing among everything else? Within an hour? Negative. The counselors were I'm assuming at the mess hall with the children as they're the ones who asked where he was. Just off to me. Absolutely wonderful theory, but there are holes that don't make sense.

It could still work as the important thing to remember is the narrator isn't reliable if this theory is correct. As such, how can we believe that the timeframe or else wouldn't have worked. We know they were unsupervised in the huts. We don't even know if there WAS a lack of blood etc. The Scout Master and staff looked for this poor kid and then the police were called and parents immediately took their children home. Odds are if that's true then they all believed the kids did it immediately which points to blood etc.

Sarah Morton There was never a note left in the bear. In fact, there was probably never a bear. It was conjured up in his imagination as his brain tried to process the psychological weight of what had happened. The word in the note has a duel meaning that translates to memory or storage. This symbolises him compartmentalising and repressing the memory of what happened. It didn’t exist. As for the bear, notice how it is described as “a sickly looking creature; obviously enduring many years of abuse and quite frail.” This is not how one would describe a teddy bear, even if it was tattered and torn. It is describing Michael. While Michael may well have had a teddy that he was ridiculed for, the narrator has transferred a great deal of what had happened onto this object. That bludgeoning didn’t happen in the lunch break...it happened the night before. The children bludgeoned Michael to death with their lunch tins and hid him (along with all evidence) beneath the floorboards, before the supervisors could return. The final blow which killed him was delivered by the narrator (but transferred to the decapitation of the bear). The narrator’s brilliant plan that he ran by the other bullies was to tell the supervisors, when his absence was noticed at lunch time, that Michael had momentarily joined them for lunch but then returned to the cabin to get their lunch tins. This never happened. It was an alibi to explain why Michael and the lunch tins had disappeared. Michael never joined them in the lunch room, but the narrator’s deluded memory has convinced him that this fabrication truly happened. In reality, Michael had been dead beneath the floorboards from the night before. The conversation in the lunch room has been conjured by the narrator to fill in the gaps of his own selective memory. Later in the story, we learn of a phone call where his mum informs someone that she will not let him near the house. This tells us that his family know he is a danger. It tells us that he was known to have been involved and it’s likely he was questioned by police and subject to investigation (all of which is repressed). The narrator also mentions that the camp is still a camp at the beginning, but at the end tells us that it’s a mental hospital. This is presumably because he has conflated the time spent at this camp with time spent in a mental hospital. Also, the cabin is named “Blue Ridge”. Blue Ridge is a well known institution that deals with mental health and behavioural problems. That leads me to believe it wasn’t a regular scout camp, but one specifically designed for troubled kids. Either that or he was sent to a Blue Ridge mental institution after the attack. It's not very clear. It seems significant that it was set in the 1970s as, compared to now, child safeguarding wasn’t that great, even in child-centred organisations, and this lax attitude to child welfare could often lead to poor supervision. This would have allowed them to be unsupervised for a long period of time.

Mr.bliTzZ 3o3 dude I’m rewatching pen pal rn I started this one as cause last time I saw a year(1999) it was gooooddd

Pen Pal is definitely my favorite

I forgot how much I sobbed during the last chapter of pen pal when I revisited it a couple months ago too so you’re not alone with that

Mr.bliTzZ 3o3 pen pal and borassca murder my heart

One of my all time favorites!

Robert Adams 😂

Probably not

All Praise Goddess Monika. lol I guess ha ha

No the sequel to 1977

Alex T technically it’s the prequel to 1979

We will never learn, every time a kid shoots up a school we will sit there and wonder "why does this keep happening?", some will argue about gun control and others will want to outright ban guns. But nobody ever seems to mention bullying as the biggest problem. Teachers just want to do their boring job and go home in the afternoon, they don't want to get involved with bullying, they don't care about the victims.

Both of you are right, no one ever thinks about bullies, or they do and just ignore it. The gun's are not the problem, the bullies are.

​@@TimSlee1 yeah bullying is a problem for sure, but it's universal . How come we don't have school shootings in Europe or Australia despite bullying being just as present there? It's because of gun control. That is the only logical answer.

So the people who think it’s the German word for memory are completely wrong

I know poor micheal

Yey it literally made me tear up a bit.

Feels good to see a TF2 comment here ;)

That's what I was thinking!!!

It pays really well. It beats hourly work. Having any string of letters after your name (Bob Smith, CPA) is infinitely more prestigious than just being "Bob Smith" And maybe the protagonist is autistic and loves math.

@@msmltvcktl I have no idea. Have you seen the people who are actually accountants? They are a miserable looking bunch. It's is actually the profession with the highest rate of suicides too.....

@@msmltvcktl Think I'd rather be just plain Bob Smith and be happy with my job.. 😁

Jag Girl For accounting its a lot different if you are in private or public as most do 4 years in public having terrible hours then get better when you switch to private

*this was a joke what happened*

@Social Dissidence thats the outlook of weaklings who need other people's approval. I never participated in such things growing up and true I myself became and outcast to an extent but I always felt that pushing around someone else to feel better about myself was beneath me just like anyone who did it is beneath me.

@Social Dissidence not 100% acceptance but you never have to be cruel to someone. Ignoring a guy and making him your punching bag are different.

It is ok, that he forgives himself. He did however deserve the years he suffered. But after all, he was a small child back then and there is a good reason why we don't treat children as adults.

Well shit happens the world is fucked

Just another day of pathetic breathing and everyone hating themselves and everyone else

I was bullied and now I look depressed and hating everything a shore of loneliness and a beach of hate

You think there is a hell we live it

I felt guilt, not like this but still, I used to get bullied at school which caused me to bully weak people and innocent like Michael, and then I think how felt when I was bullied and making these people feel the same way :(

The writer might have been thinking of the English word memory (as in remembering something), and mistranslated it.

The story was written before the massacre, so it's not a reference to that.

That same grape must have ligma

I was thinking maybe “spikha” Bulgarian for “were sleeping” or “спиха” russian for “sleeping”

@Mzulft 10989 I read the story and Speicher was definitely the word that was said.

@@heloizme2773 XO omg wat really

Can you explain more? Maybe not, cause you Googled it..lol Means a storage room in an attic. In a computer sense it relates to memory. Which is why I can see how storage/ memory relate to each other. But I can't see how memory (computer related) context fits in this case. Storage room makes more sense. You and others that posted simply " Storage/Memory, really need to do a bit more research on the meanings of words they post. As it is it made no sense at all. That way you will get a better understanding of what you are actually Googling and posting. Did you not stop to think how those 2 words related to the story? No..... Kids!!! Lol. 😁

Jag Girl I actually didn’t google it, but you did. I used to learn german before i stopped, and i must’ve remembered what the word meant wrongly. And, i can tell you googled it, since the first thing that pops up on google is (regional) storage room in the attic (computing) memory

@@Alto02 You were right on the money. The narrator has a repressed "memory" of having "stored" Michael's body underneath the floorboards.

jaelzion holy shit that actually makes sense, thanks for explaining that :)

that one guy I can’t find 1999 but in 1991 there’s a boy named Michael

And he’s called yo a van by a guy dressed in a bear suit

Crypt TV? Ok, but that is more like Crypt teepee, with how weird that show is. And, I bet you have 2 diamonds. Bro, I got 5 diamonds, and I can make a pickaxe, and enchant table. Get roasted, by owo.

Seaweed Senpai It’s Stephen.

DatTromboneGuy - yep, same. Someone tell us what the German word meant.

I saw a comment saying that they believe that since the guilt the narrator feels is so disproportionate that when they sent Michael to get the mess tins, they actually followed him and beat him up so badly that he died from it.

I also saw a comment where "speicher" COULD be in reference to the Camp Speicher Massacre, but there is only one problem. The video is titled "1978" and the CSM occurred in 2004...

CroxzOfficial - wow thanks. But why German, I wonder? I just seems out of context. It’s a great set up for a sequel but given that it’s being told now about events in 1978, I’m guessing there isn’t one. Thanks for the info.

DatTromboneGuy apparently speicher means storage in German
