### 3/5 — Used to be way better

*2025-12-30*

I had this when it was free, it was better back then, also you refuse to add new stories, you need to add new stories

### 3/5 — Used to be way better

*2025-11-29*

I had this when it was free, I fail to understand why you made it a subscription based service, just make it a one time purchase, but if you want to ruin your app then it’s your choice man, just a real shame

### 3/5 — It's awesome but it's not what it used to be

*2025-05-21*

I understand all the episodes not being free any more You need to make money to keep it going but only 4 stories were added after they all were no longer free and it's been 5 years since a new story has been added I love the app and it's my favorite creepy pasta app but if your going to make people pay for something that was previously free you should at least keep adding new episodes to at least entice people into actually buying it and it's not like they just stopped working on the app cuz they still update it to fix bugs and stuff

### 3/5 — Having fixable issues

*2025-01-28*

My number oneconcern is that during my experience when I press on a story, the audio replays from the last story. Then eventually kicks me out. Secondly premium I feel like is a tad bit unnecessary. I get needing money but do it through other applications some of the best stories cost money that some people don't have to offer up just like that

### 3/5 — Older version was better

*2025-01-03*

I love this app don’t get me wrong but back when it first came out with the original layout and all the stories being free it was so much better i understand needing money for the app to keep going but it was perfectly fine the way it was and all this premium stuff and changing the layout so much just ruined the app quite frankly. I will not be downloading again which is a shame. Please revert it back to the original version from like 2018 then I might consider redownloading.

### 3/5 — Good but could he better

*2023-09-02, version 4.05*

It’s really good but needs more story’s

### 4/5 — It’s wonderful, just a bug

*2023-04-12*

All of the stories are creepy, and they leave me wanting to listen more, just when I click the back button to view all the stories, it kicks me out of the app. I never encountered anything but this small bug, and I really encourage people who like a little scare once in a while to try it out!

### 4/5 — я что-то не поняла

*2022-11-10*

а как страшилки скачивать?У меня тупо ничего нет

### 3/5 — It won't work.

*2022-10-21*

It's overall a really good app. I love listening to creepypasta stories while im doing other things and don't have time to read them, but recently the app won't let me on it without kicking me off immediately.

### 2/5 — пусто

*2022-07-28*

здравствуйте, почему у меня в меню ‘аудио’ все пусто? даже в поисковике я не могу поискать, там буквы не печатаются. 
когда в первый раз качала все было хорошо, но сейчас ничего нету, исправьте пожалуйста

### 4/5 — !

*2022-02-13*

I like it BUT I remember I had this app back then and every story was available but now my favorite stories cost money like smile dog and others so now it’s not then best but other than that it’s not bad

### 4/5 — Love it, but a couple of glitches.

*2022-01-02*

This app is awesome! My favorite of the creepypasta apps. The voice isn’t annoying or hard to follow, the stories are entertaining, and unlike many of the ones I’ve tried, I can leave the page without it pausing. 

But at one point, it stopped letting me on the app? I would refresh it, update it, delete it and download it again, and it kept kicking me off. A couple months later, its let me back on. 

Still really good would recommend. :)

### 2/5 — Constantly crashes

*2021-08-31*

The stories are good once you can finally get them to play and then you have to cross your fingers that it won’t crash in the middle of a story. If they can fix this I might consider keeping it.

### 2/5 — Lots of crashing

*2021-06-24, version 4.04*

I used this app several years ago to listen to Creepypasta audios and it worked very well. But lately, I’ve had issues with listening to the tracks. One track will play through and the next one will automatically play as well, but four seconds or so into the intro, I can’t hear the audio anymore. Sometimes it just pauses by itself, but sometimes it says it’s still playing and I’m watching the time stamp progress while I hear absolutely nothing. Granted, for some of the stories, the speaking doesn’t start until 18 or so seconds in so I’m listening to absolute silence because of that. But for some of the stories I have to actually close the app and reopen it, scroll down to the story I was on, and try playing it again; then it might work and I’ll continue listening as usual. Sometimes I have to manually close and reopen the app multiple times before a story will play. I tried deleting and reinstalling the app and it made my problem worse. Now the app crashes when I try to play stories.

My internet connection is not the problem, I have fast internet where I am. My phone doesn’t have trouble running apps, so I’m pretty sure it’s not my phone’s fault, especially since other people are having the same issue. Maybe it’s a compatibility problem, since I switched to an iPhone after having an android phone for years, and the app just works better on android phones. I haven’t tested this theory yet, but the fact is, that’s not my job. The app developers need to do that.

I tried to explain the situation as gently as I could, but this problem really has caused a lot of frustration and I think changes can be made to get this app in better shape.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

*2021-06-08*

App doesn’t work.   Stories don’t play it just crashes constantly.  Uninstalled.

### 1/5 — App crashes every time I open it

*2021-05-25, version 4.04*

Love listening to the stories on YouTube so i figured I would download the app and support the narrator. Every time I open the app, it crashes with in a few seconds.

### 1/5 — Coming back

*2020-12-01*

Coming back to this app I am extremely disappointed at its changes, for one I really liked and miss the old narrator, no matter how many times I listen to a story with the new one I can’t ever get into it, they don’t have the same eerie feel as the old one, two, the layout isn’t like it used to be, I might not remember it very well but I liked it better in 2018

### 1/5 — Баги

*2020-11-23*

Запускаю приложение и нажимаю на историю, она сначала долго грузится а потом приложение вылетает, и так каждый раз, у меня Iphone 5 вроде СЕ, разработчики, почините пожалуйста

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2020-10-28*

Every time I open the app it close then it doesn’t play at all then after it by some godly miracle it dose work when I open it then it shuts off when I scroll down to fine a story I’m not getting another app from this developer in fear that the something will happen plz fix it,

### 5/5 — Love this app

*2026-08-09*

I love the stories, love the voice actors, wish they’d add something new but it’s been a few years so probably not. But I need noise to sleep and i love using this app to fall asleep, the soundtracks are on cue and the storytelling is so visual.

### 5/5 — Needs more but is great

*2026-05-18, version 601*

Loving the stories, especially in my spare time or as I’m working or on my break. But it definitely needs more stories 🙏🙏

### 5/5 — Read this

*2026-04-04*

It does have some pretty great audios but, I just wish you guys posted more i listen to while sleeping and have heard every single one. If you need a writer to write stories for this app let me know.

### 5/5 — Pretty nice!

*2022-09-19*

### 5/5 — Great

*2020-03-24, version 3.03*

Fellow gothics this will send a chill down your spine with Krapuse drowning you in the tub ...lol

### 5/5 — This is a wonderful app

*2019-10-29, version 3.01*

First of all I have to say that this is an amazing app. I used to use a Samsung to listen to Creepypastas from a particular app that is not available on apple. However this app has the same stories from that app that I love. It also has stories that I never heard before. There are a few things about the app that slightly ruin the happiness I receive from it. These are not major but are simply a minor annoyance. These annoyances are; the app will close itself sometimes after a story and it will also close if you scroll too quickly or if you open another story. Other than these small problems the only thing I do no like about the app is that there are many stories that I like that are not there for instance “Jane the killer, Homicidal Lue, Ticky Toby and Sonic.exe. But I’m sure that these stories will be added in the future as long as the app and the apps creator get the love they deserve.
