Title: Sonic.exe: Sparklez Da Hedgehog
Genre: Horror
---
They say on the darkest corner of DeviantArt, haunted zip files travel from inbox to inbox—promising "rates and new friends" but delivering something unspeakable.
Cam stumbled upon one such link while doomscrolling through forums dedicated to infamous Sonic OCs. The thumbnail: a MS Paint nightmare—a hot pink hedgehog with gradient hair, twelve tails, and mismatched, melting eyes. “Sparklez Da Hedgehog,” spelled out in Comic Sans, shimmered under layers of lens flare. The caption? *‘She iz my best fren, she will protect u from Sonic.exe. Plz rate & fav, no haters!!!’*
Cam clicked.
At first, nothing. Then, a user named “Sparklez-Fan-1996” DM’d Cam three unrelated chibi drawings, each tracked with greasy mouse strokes. The OC’s face warped in every picture; eyes growing wider, teeth sharpening, scars multiplying.
Cam closed the browser, heart thumping.
But Sparklez followed.
On the wallpaper: Sparklez, grinning, her features sliding apart in uncanny valleys. In system notifications: “Plz rate my OC!!! <3” over and over. Suddenly, Cam’s cursor jerked by itself, opening MS Paint. Sparklez’s head, melting, assembling pixel by pixel, her tails multiplying and stretching from the screen into the room. Cam tried to shut down, but a voice echoed: “NO HATERS ALLOWED.”
The power flickered. Cam’s reflection warped in the monitor—a hot pink shadow behind, twitching, smiling wider than should be possible.
Cam screamed, but the only sound was Comic Sans laughter. The lowest-rated Sonic OC had found a new canvas.
On forums, a new thumbnail appeared: Cam’s photo, *‘Plz rate & fav my new friend!!!’* under Comic Sans, Sparklez by their side.
Nobody dared to click again.
