Candle Cove: The Kids' TV Show That Wasn’t There | Creepypastas

In 2009, a web cartoonist named Kris Straub published a short story formatted as an internet forum thread, in which a group of strangers collectively reconstruct a disturbing children's TV show called Candle Cove. One that, by the final post, they realize was never actually broadcast.

It then did something no other creepypasta had done: it escaped into the real world and became the exact myth it was imitating.Head over to our Twisted Tales YouTube channel to WATCH this episode: https://www.youtube.com/@crimehousestudiosIf you’re new here, don’t forget to follow Twisted Tales to never miss a case!
