Previously: “Floor Zero.”
This week, a musical creepypasta — a story about a legendary album that’s difficult to find, and has an… unusual effect on those who listen to it. The story is called “The Green Album,” and no, we’re not talking about the 2001 Weezer album colloquially known by that same name.
Written by Creepypasta Wiki user Stormlilly and originally uploaded at the very end of September 2013, this one isn’t long, but it’s very effective. I like its format very much; I love a good untrustworthy narrator story — and like all good untrustworthy narrator stories, “The Green Album” creepypasta requires a bit of reading-between-the-lines to really get what’s going on.

A word of advice: Don’t go seeking the Green Album. If you find it, and if you listen to it, you… might not quite be the same ever again. And not in a good way.

So you want to hear about the Green Album, huh? A real collector, you are. You’re probably one of those freaks who keeps a collage scrapbook, am I right? Just messing with ya, it’s just weird someone coming up and asking me about the old thing of their own volition. Usually I gotta get the story going for ’em. Usually they just start wind up listening while they wait for the bus…
Means we’ve got some time to kill. So. Awright, the Green Album. Info is info, and it’ll cost you. That’s a really nice watch you’ve got there. Gimme.
Thanks. It matches my eyes, doesn’t it? Don’t laugh.
Don’t you dare laugh.
