What makes 'itsfunneh try not to laugh scary stories' so popular?

I have watched it. It was really interesting. The way they combined the 'try not to laugh' concept with scary stories was unique. Some of the stories were truly spooky, but at the same time, the reactions of the participants trying not to laugh added a touch of humor to the whole thing.

If it has unique characters and settings, that could be a big draw. For example, if it's set in a fantastical but spooky world with strange creatures. The contrast between the familiar 'itsfunneh' style and the scary elements can also create an interesting dynamic. The way they build up the tension and the unexpected twists in the story can keep the audience hooked.

The unique use of sound effects, if it's in a video form, or the way the words are written to create sound in the reader's mind when it's a written story. For example, the repeated 'tap - tap - tap' of something approaching can be really effective. Also, the stories might have unexpected twists that you don't see coming. It's not just the typical scary stuff, but there are elements that surprise you and make the story stand out from other scary tales.

The story about the haunted forest in the ItsFunneh Roblox world is quite popular. In this forest, there are trees that seem to have faces and reach out with their branches to grab players. Another popular one is the tale of the old, derelict school in the game where ghostly students can be seen in the classrooms.

The humor in it is very relatable. We've all had clumsy or silly moments like the ones in the stories, so it's easy to laugh at them.

The 'Try to Smile' scary story is terrifying because it often plays on the psychological fear of the unknown. The idea of something forcing you to smile against your will is deeply unsettling. It goes against our natural instincts and makes us feel a loss of control over our own expressions.

Scary viral stories are popular because they play on our primal fears. Things like the fear of the unknown, the dark, and being hunted. The 'Momo' challenge was so popular because it tapped into the fear of being influenced by something evil. Also, the sharing nature of the internet means that once one person shares a scary story, it can quickly spread to a large number of people. Everyone wants to be in on the latest 'scary' thing.

They tap into our primal fears. Fears like being alone in the dark, being watched by something unknown, or having our normal safe spaces (like our homes or video games) invaded. 'Jeff the Killer' invades people's homes, which is a place we're supposed to feel safe. And 'Ben Drowned' takes a beloved video game and turns it into a horror zone. So they're relatable on a very basic fear level.

The shared experience. When a scary story goes viral, people all over the world are sharing and discussing it. It becomes a part of our cultural conversation. People like to pass on these stories to see others' reactions, and also to feel a sense of community in being scared together. For instance, the 'Annabelle' story spread like wildfire, and people would gather to talk about it, whether they believed it or not.

The thrill. People like to be scared in a safe way. Reading a scary story novel gives that rush of adrenaline.
