Lost Media Archive (Rewritten)

Have any of you always wondered what happened to supposed "Lost Episodes?" Now, I know what you're thinking at this point. You probably think all of those Lost Episode creepypastas are fake, and they aren't real... I'd totally say the same thing, except, they ARE real. Let me explain how I know this. Let's start from the beginning.

I was 17 year old back in highschool when my friends told me about the creepypasta wiki. I thought these stories were pretty well-made! At least, some of them. Then, after a little bit of scrolling, I come across a creepypasta known as "Squidward's Suicide." The story WAS full of cliche's, but was one of the first lost episode pastas' of it's time.

After a day or so, I ended up showing my small group of friends the story of Squidward's Suicide. They made a ridiculous bet with me that day. "Hey Ryan, if you end up finding a video of that episode online, i'll give you my entire life's savings." He ended laughing after that, and then said he would actually give me ten dollars. I was somewhat content with this, and even though I knew this episode wasn't real, I had the urge to search it up...

I eventually find a whole bunch of edited videos on a not-well-known website back then. Youtube. The footage was poorly edited, and, it was just overall bad. A few google searches later, and this one search result catches my eye...

"Lost Media Archive - A Collection of videos they wanted you to forget."

I was interested, and decided to click on the website link. My computer began to download a program, but it was blocked by google for being a virus. I decided that I am going to open it, even if my computer gets fucked up in the process. Besides, I could always just buy a new one.

After opening the program, my computer was scorching hot. I closed out other programs, but it just kept getting hotter. I tried to douse it, but my hand got burned. I eventually grabbed a fire extinguisher, and put it out. After putting out the flames, the program started up. It was a separate program for the website? This was confusing to me, but I didn't mind.

I clicked on the videos section, and in there, lied a whole bunch of downloadable video files, complete with a search feature. I decided to search for Squidward's Suicide, to see if anything about it was there...

And there it was. "Squidwards_Suicide.mp4"

I downloaded it, and played it... It was the exact same video described in the story. It- it was real....

I had no idea what to say. After about a moment of contemplating, I put the file on a USB. I woke up a day later, and showed my friends... They all just stood there with shocked expressions, motionless...Their faces were all pale, and nobody said a word. They just stood there, staring at me... After a moment, their heads all laid down. No breathing, no pulse, nothing... I then noticed a small red dot on my forehead. I was visibly shaking, and before I knew it, a group of masked men went running towards me. They all cornered me...

"Thanks for viewing the Lost Media Archive. Unfortunately, your death will be recorded on there. Please do not resist, as you'll just suffer."

Something hit me... The program was an IP Logger... "God damn it," I said out loud. A whole bunch of police cars arrive, and the men ran away before anything could happen. They all thought I was the one who killed everyone. I am currently out of jail, trying to warn you. NEVER TRY AND SEARCH FOR LOST EPISODES ONLINE. It's pure bait, and you can even be arrested...
