Sort of. I learned a few tricks to making a good creepypasta watching the Haunted Gaming Creepypasta videos on Youtube, and decided to find ways to make a cliche more unique. The idea of blending actual game programming and story telling is the first thing to came to mind for me when writing this creepypasta. If you see a cliche a hundred times, you learn you can add a new rule to them on your own when you try it out on your first few creepypastas. I wouldn't exactly say I pulled an Edgar Allen Poe. He was the very first creepypasta writer before they became popular, as evidenced by how he wrote his stories. It'll be a long time before someone is as good as making a creepypasta as he was.
