Top Comments of this video!! :3
To be honest, I liked it better when it was a creepy thing that came into peoples homes, observed them, and ran off. We don't have enough cryptids like that who are just kind of weird and creepy. Once all the gore and tearing people apart came in it cemented itself as just another cheesy over the top gore fest character.

I love how much of a contrast the rake has compared to some of the other creatures that the internet has made over the years. Like while most of them are out for blood, The rake could easily kill you if he wanted to but he usually doesn't because all you have to do is see him and that'll drive you insane enough where he doesn't need to do anything to you. He finds joy in screwing with people, implying that he's going to go after their friends or even them one day. Whether he ever actually does that or not is unimportant, if you saw that thing standing at the foot of your bed and it told you it was going to go after one of your friends or family members you probably wouldn't be the same afterwards either. That's what he wants, and that to me is a lot more unnerving than your standard killer.

I still fondly remember being 12 years old and discovering the rake through slenderman stories. I spent the first day watching a bunch of "proof" videos and reading as many stories as I could. I got like 3 hours of sleep that night and for months after I had a subconscious fear when I was alone that something was stalking me from behind.
I'm not nostalgic over much cause my childhood was pretty sad and weird but that was genuinely a really good time.
Ty Mr. Rake, you were a real one.

Ironically enough my local news station posted the iconic photo of the rake calling it the "Louisiana zombie" claiming it was captured on a hunters game camera.
Edit: I remember I was young at this time and the whole ordeal made me so interested in the supernatural/creepypasta and the associated

Shout out for insomniac games creating the iconic picture at 14:48. The picture was a promo for the third resistance game and the monster in the picture is a lesser enemy from the game.

As a kid i was scared shittles from the rake. Until i found a "creepypasta" that just gave them a back story and it lost all the spooks. It was something about the rake being a cursed pirate and that he wears an amulet that gives him powers/made them like that and if you take it away the rake gets badly hurt/weakened. It was basically a origin vid plus a big self insert character beating the rake. As much as I love origin Storys and weird cryptic things being explored and given history, the story gave too much making the creepyness of it suffer greatly. Can't remember who made the video nor who wrote the story since it was many years ago that i listened to it

When I was little, My mom got me to watch the Lord of the Rings, and when Gollum was on screen I was always terrified, because of how both human and inhuman he looked like, as well as his introduction, him crawling around down in the ruins of the dwarf tunnels, Frodo seeing him and going to Gandalf to ask what that was, and Gandalf's explanation of who and what Gollum was, and in the third film, seeing his transformation haunted me, I would have nightmares of me being chased by a demonic Gollum that looked just like the Rake, and till this Day, the Rake is the only good Creepypasta that keeps me up at night, and now since I've been having sleep paralysis sometimes, I just see the Rake's head poking up from the foot of my bed...
Staring at me...

The ability for the internet to create mythology and fictional creatures that while nonexistent are conceptually horrifying never fails to impress me.
