The Deep Web and other Scary Stories...

~Never go on to the Deep Web~

I'm guessing that you have heard of The Deep Web if not I WARN you to leave now. Curiosity killed the cat.
Hi my name is Brian, I am a sixteen year old teenage boy. I made the mistake of going on to The Deep Web.
I am like any other teenager, I hear something at school at instantly I have to try it out. My friend Jacob is a decent programmer, and has taught me anything I know now about computers today. Jacob is also a other user of the Deep web.
During 5th Period, me and Jacob talked about the daily usual drama. Jacob brought something called Tor. Being myself I questioned more.

Jacob told me all about the Deep Web, he gave me links of different websites and videos talking about it. The Deep Web sounded fun, something new!

So, I surrounded myself the entire day thinking about the Deep Web. Extremely excited to get home and look it up.

Once I got home, I went straight to my laptop. My mother was out. So, I felt safe. I grabbed the piece of paper Jacob slipped me. It had a list of things I had to do before I got on to The Deep Web. I turned off all listed things like my Java script and etc. Finally, I was ready.

I got onto Tor and began searching through links Jacob had gave me. I found a chat room. There I met a few people. One guy had used the Deep Web for some time now. I alerted him I was new, and just wanted to look around for fun. He sent me multiple links. Some were to the normal things like Child Porn, Drugs, and Hitmen. I came across a site that I found interest into.

This site included videos that you could not view unless you had the guts to click on it. So I scrolled through them thinking that half of them were probably fake. Someone just trying to frighten a few kids trying to go on the Deep Web. I clicked on one in particular it showed a man that looked about thirty years of age. He flicked a silver steel blade in his hands. All of a sudden the camera changed views to the right side of him. Five females laid there ranging between twenty to forty years of age it seemed like. He began to walk in front of the females. Then out of no where he said my name. This didn't really bother me, knowing that anyone can easily get your name online.

So I continued watching and typed a message in chat saying,

"You don't scare me, nice try though!"

I will regret that message for the rest of my life.

He responded now saying that I have gone to far and that, that was merely a warning. All hell was released.
He began to list my address, phone number, social media, and other private information about myself and family. Now I was not only threatened by this guy, I was threatened by all the viewers that were currently watching my death wish spiral.

The man presumed to killed the women lying next to him endlessly. Giving each a more gruesome death. He would slit ones wrist, then he would stab the next slowly creating little slits in her back with blood pouring out. This man was truly disgusting. Once he finished, he slathered one of the females blood on his right index finger and carved something on the wall. I didn't realize it then, but the carving stated the four words,

"I'm coming for you".

At that moment, I shut off my laptop and removed its battery. I left it there and didn't think about it. Until the next day.

The next day, I went back to school forgetting all that happened last evening. School was pretty regular there was nothing out of the normal. Drama, Math, Work, Home. When I got home my mother told me that morning that she would be running late and to fix the Ramen Noodles left in the cabinet for me to eat. I went to kitchen and readied a pot of noodles. Bored sitting there and waiting, I decided to make a post on InstaGram

"Home Alone! 😝."

Curiosity killed the Cat.
I decided to stop waiting, I mean the noodles looked editable. So, I picked the noodles out of the pot with a wooden spoon, and poured them into the verde bowl. All of a sudden, I received a message on my phone.

"Home Alone, finally we can meet in person!"

The number was unknown, but I knew my fate was coming for me. I quickly slammed the bowl down on the table, grabbed my jacket, and ran. I felt at that moment running was my only decision. They knew my address, my name, everything.

While on the street, I decided to take a rest, I had been running for some time now. I looked behind me. Standing at the beginning of the road was a greenish van. The door suddenly opened. Out stepped a man, he had rustled up black hair, a beard which looked like he didn't care for, and dark glasses. He walked my way slowly carrying what looked to be a trash bag. Immediately knew why he was there.
For me.
Out of his pocket, was a silver blade like the one I saw yesterday. I was dead.
I ran. I knew then my chances were slim. I grabbed my phone out from my pocket. I dialed 9-1-1. They quickly said they were on their way. The man continued to chase after me. Suddenly in the far distance I heard a police siren. The man obviously heard it to, and escaped through the van. The police got there and asked me many questions. I answered them the best I could. Being that Tor instantly deletes your history I had no proof of anything. The police officer told me that I should consider moving to a different location, something me and my mother couldn't afford at the time. My mother was furious once she heard about the incident. The man hasn't dared to come back since.
I am telling you now, never go onto the Deep web. I would never wish what happened to me on my worst enemy.
