I totally forgot she wanted to be a spidertaur... Wow, that makes the ending even more touching, as someone who has arachnophobia too.

[@greywalker505]

Makes me wonder: suppose the spider had found her half-dead and mostly eaten up by other spiders, then “helped” her by linking up with her, effectively making some kind of symbiosis between the two. Just a theory of mine that keeps me from thinking of the possibility that she’s fully dead/“possessed” by the spider.

[@gamahkitten9900]

Drider is the official DnD name for "spider centaurs"

[@ArDeeMee]

Her story is probably as sad as that of the spider boy in the game Don‘t Starve. A spider ate him and didn‘t manage to swallow. They lived fused together ever since. Normally friendly NPCs will chase and kill him, since he is an abomination. Poor child. He calls the big monster spider queen „Mommy Longlegs“.

Honestly, I didn't feel any fear, just shock because I thought I knew what was coming. And then sadness when I was right. Imagine being that father. The most difficult thing any parent can ever face is losing their child, but imagine losing them, then losing your legs and nearly dying from searching desperately through a very dangerous hell hole to find them... and then finding them a decade later... like this. Your sanity would likely disappear forever in that one single moment.

Only halfway through but i like this old guy. An old fashioned type of guy AND kind, that's rare to see. None of that toxic playing chicken that men and boys are taught to do, in any other story i feel like he would have pressured the mc to go further. It's nice to hear him be chill about the mc being gay, but it's also really nice to hear him check in with mc to see if he wants to go back. I feel like i would be a lot more comfortable with bugs if the men around me had been like him growing up. 10/10 gramps

Ooh I loved this one! As a bug owner myself who keeps a few spiders, I like how this didnt demonize spiders or bugs in general. I liked how in this spiders were both dangerous, and beloved. Not inherently terrifying, but capable of striking fear. Thats such a cool way to write spider horror.

[@AngelDust6969]

That was interesting, intense, creepy af, sad, and amazing throughout. I have severe arachnophobia, but I managed to reach the end. Lucy becoming a Drider (or Spider centaur as she called it) was definitely an interesting plot twist. I had a feeling they'd see her, but I assumed she'd either be a corpse or a hallucination of some kind (possibly created by a spider with supernatural powers), so that was definitely a welcoming surprise. What I don't quite understand is how the Squirrel and Lucy ended up as spider hybrids. Granted, nothing about the forest seemed to make sense, though I have some theories, ranging from some supernatural/otherworldly force to some geneticist/scientist creating it and then going insane, with all options having an explanation of some kind for the spider hybrids.

[@ArDeeMee]

I think this is the kind of story that improves from withholding an explanation. Whatever happened to Lucy must have been horrendous, and she sounded so SAD. Her story is probably similar to that of Webber from the game Don‘t Starve.

I love how the music really underlined the sadness that was in the story as well, like it wasnt just purely scary and creepy, it was also emotional. (The voice acting was also spot on with emotion) The icing on the cake for me is really just the fact that you MADE the music, only to put it in the background of your narrations. It's so obvious that you put a lot of work and care into your videos, and it really pays off.

Im not particularly fond of them by any means lol and I still kill them when I find them. But I guess I see them in a new light. They’re really slow, can barely see (if they can see at all), they’re terrified of everything except for the bugs they eat, and the majority of them are not venomous. The ones that are venomous only bite if their lives are being threatened. They’re just really gross looking lol

Btw.. that Myth is no myth in the south lol. They’re literally everywhere. Most of the time they’re hiding though. If you go outside at night (it has to be dark) and hold a flashlight eye level, you will see thousands of lights throughout the grass. They look like raindrops shining in the light. They’re not. They’re spiders

Spiders aren't really malicious, so this forest just sounds interesting. Creepy, but interesting.

[@CrossbredManiac]

This whole story was so sweet. I was crying from the time he arrived at their house to the end of the story. It may sound weird, but I can heavily relate to this. Reminds me of some of the hallucinations I had after the passing of loved ones as a form of coping... But I would like to take this story literally. I like it that way. It gives closure in such a wonderful way, leaving the future heavily implied with a goal for us to imagine another story for, a set end point for one that won't be told by anyone else. One of my new favorites. Thanks, man. You always pick the best stories. (Plus spiders are cool and I'm really glad she remained memory and speech despite not needing either for so long. The detail of her growing post-change is awesome as well and leaves a lot of speculation for the reader/listener, giving the opportunity to fill in lost time subconsciously. Beautiful story.)

This is one of the best stories I've ever heard. I'm starting to fall in love with your channel, because your delivery and the editing work brings everything to life. You're amazing.

[@Littlepaw01]

This is such a rare horror story, such a bitter sweet ending. This one with "Because you are my baby" are my absolute favorite thus far.

[@Shifsabre]

Despite my horrible arachnophobia, this story almost brought me to tears, not because of the spiders, but because of how beautiful it was.

[@LizzyKoopa]

This one hit me in the feels. the voice acting was amazing, the sfx the timing of that beautiful song you wrote everything. this is by far my favorite narration video ever.

[@Darksomnium]

thank you! im glad you like it!

[@LizzyKoopa]

@@Darksomnium yall made me cry with that timing too xD thanks to all your hard work on this one, i started making a 3d model based off description, thanks for the inspiration.

[@Akkaaapie]

Man, this is the story ever. I remember when I first heard this story two years back or so, I cried so hard because the voice acting and music was just THAT good hahhaa! I still come back to it (like today) and always find myself blown away each time. The way you handle each story and its characters with so much care creates such an immersive experience, I always find myself swept away within the first few seconds. Thanks for the incredible narrations as always :)

[@davethescrub858]

Damn straight. Best creepypasta/story I've heard across any channel/narrator I've heard man. You really brought that one to life. Great work!!

[@kowalski2385]

How many times have I listened to this story? I don't understand entirely why, but I continue to return to this one. In my opinion, this has to be absolutely one of your best. I'd be hard pressed to say if you had a "worst" in any competition amongst the stories you've worked on. However- this one does something to me. The story you composed for Lucy is brilliant. Your constant sound design and even the life you gave to Mr.Lockhart. Your impression is one of my absolute favorites from you. You inspire me, Ronnie. You, and other wonderful Narrators- such as "Nature's Temper", and ofc "Mrcreepypasta". If you must know, I'll even listen to this story while at work. I'd say I've listened to this more than ten times. Perhaps upwards of twenty.

[@evilme7162]

This is the weirdest happy ending ever.

[@jackerickson1214]

So i noticed something while listening to this story. At about 16 minutes theres a section about drawings lucy made as a child. One of the drawings was about her and lady legs being centuar spider women. That's a sneaky little bit of foreshadowing to lucy's future.

[@Gemini540]

What an amazing read, this story was the first one I heard you narrate and I wish I'd discovered you sooner, your use of ominous music coupled with sound effects and you're brilliant voice really brings these stories to life.

[@Darksomnium]

Wow, thank you! i make all the music myself, the song i made for this story is called Lucys lament, its over on my music channel if you want to hear it! kzbin.info/www/bejne/amXKqHyggsyArdE

The music was excellent in adding to the somber feeling. The voice is absolutely haunting and sad. Combining with the music bring tears, and its amazing.

[@Darksomnium]

Thanks so much! :)

0:23 trust me it can be worse a few weeks ago on the bus I heard what looked like 1st or 2nd graders singing a ryme. I'm 15 and I was disturbed they were singing about how this guy cheated on his gf and how the gf killed him in the most sickening and brutal way possible. For your sake and for my sake I'm not going to put it here trust me you don't want to know

[@megamovieman101]

Seriously though the fact that Lucy was still able to communicate and recognize her father, and that Mr. Lockhart had been intending to torch the forest until they found her, is just heartbreaking. If he hadn’t gone in, and had just burned the forest down… good god…

[@tryintolive1960]

That was one of the better stories I’ve heard in a very long time. I enjoyed that a lot.

[@Billabongbabalog]

I said, "damn", prolly 100 times in the last 10 minutes. Easily one of the best stories on this channel.

[@Darksomnium]

Thank you :)

[@dystopiandeer8212]

This was already one of my favorite stories. Now it's one of my favorite narrations, too.

[@yeehawgaylord7655]

This story feels oddly comforting to me despite being an archnophobe. Also the dad in this story,,,best dad in horror 🥹😭 the voice actor did amazing!!

[@leetedder4941]

Great story. Very original with an ending that leaves me wanting a part 2.

[@benjackson1617]

Enthralled. Best one I've heard yet and I listen to these everyday. The audio on this vid adds so much to the creep factor!! When you were describing the lucy/spider thing coming down from the trees and there was all the metallic clanking and sliding. Banging. Make more please, they make the work day go quicker. X
