Candle Cove is a creepypasta online horror series written by webcartoonist and author Kris Straub in 2009.[1]
The story centered on a fictional television show by the same name that
was visible by and known only to a small group of people, predominantly
children, who recall the disturbing show on a web forum.[2]
Straub has stated that he was inspired to write the creepypasta after reading "Area 36-Year-Old Still Has Occasional Lidsville Nightmare", an article published via the satirical news outlet The Orion.[3] Straub's story quickly became popular, inspiring numerous YouTube videos, and fan-fictions. [3][4] In 2015 Straub self-published Candle Cove in a collection of short stories entitled Candle Cove and Other Stories. The Verge commented that Candle Cove differed from other creepypastas in that while most creepypasta have an "anonymous folkloric quality", Candle Cove's originated from a known source and author.[5]
A television adaptation, Channel Zero: Candle Cove premiered on Syfy on October 11, 2016.
The story is told via a thread on a forum called the "NetNostalgia
Forums", where a group of users discuss an unusual television show, Candle Cove.
The show is about a young girl named Janice, who imagines herself to be
friends with pirates. The pirate characters are said to be portrayed by
puppets.
As the users continue to reminisce they begin to recall more
disturbing details about the show, such as a character known as the
"Skin-Taker", a skeleton pirate who wears clothing made out of
children's skin, and an episode that consisted entirely of the puppets
flailing and screaming. The story closes with a user stating that they
had recently visited their mother, who revealed that during the times
the user said they were watching Candle Cove, all the mother saw on the TV was static.
