- We all love the little blue hedgehog who runs around collecting golden rings, but Creepypasta put a whole new spin on Sonic when a mysterious haunted Sonic.EXE disc started making the rounds. This Sonic game was like something out of a horror film, and whoever played it suffered a gruesome fate! Find out what happens if you play the haunted game right now!

Infographics: "It all started with a foolish decision"
Sega: "why don't we make the cartoon hedgehog kiss an human girl?"
One black eye that haven't exactly recovered from to this day. But at least it can be joked and memed about nowadays
An human?
Better than Sonichu atleast v:
And then "What if we made a self-insert game for furries and added some edginess?"
"What if we rush out most ambitious game to the point it's super bugged?"
I am impressed. Tom managed to ignore every single Horror Red Flag possible.
Every horror movie/story character ever 😂
I mean I can understand him thinking it's hacked at first but then It literally says his name like how do you still think it's just hacked after that?
@@ketamineheadpatrick4928 games can have scripts that get your
User(pc) name or your steam account (username)
So if his Pc name was exactly his irl name it couldve been shruged off again.
Yolo! 😂
True
Kyle: **literally puts "do not play this game"**
Tom: that sign cant stop me cuz i cant read
very true
Well, who can blame him. He enjoys nostalgic sonic games.
@Yousef and Tom could’ve thrown away the game because it’s not a normal sonic game.

Sonic has changed.
Sonic mean! 👁️👄👁️
Bruh same
“Dr. Robotnik, who had NEVER been playable any other games.”
*Sonic Riders has entered the chat*
Same with Sonic Adventure 2
Same with TSR
Basically almost every spinoff
Ok to be fair he said MAIN sonic games and not spinoffs but still WHAT ABOUT SA2
@@redsonic3866 HE ALSO SAID THAT SONIC 3 CAME OUT 7 YEARS AFTER SONIC 1
Note from Kyle, who had been missing for weeks: DON’T PLAY THIS GAME!!

hnejjong
Sonic the pedohog
Sonic the hegfhog with 25 missed child support payments
27, actually
Snoic the Hnejjong with 120.000 dollars in rent, lost his girlfriend, Toils ran him over accidently,5,000 in doctoe billos
Hey, at least Toils still loves him? (as a brother I am not gonna be that type of shipper)
SKONKY
Gotta love how your adaptation made the story sound much better than how it was originally written
These kids nowadays don't know the horror of the sonic.exe game and his horrifying laugh man
Wait it’s actually a game
Ikr
I remember trying to play the game and I got scared sh**less!
Am I a joke to you?
@AhmedOfTheNight People who were born in 2000 can legally drink now. Let that sink in.
The new generation: I'M SCARED!!!!!
OGs: *First time?*
True
Right like the comments section is full of younger people scared but those of us who grew up with sonic in the early 90’s laugh.
lol
I watch scp content daily lol
i was an og and kid.
"Tom is a big fan of Sonic games."
"Has never played any hacked or glitch filled games."
DOES NOT COMPUTE
Maybe he's a purist.
I'm not computing your point, why would you have to play hacks or glitched games to be a big fan?
@@nathanwuchevich3734 The jokes how glitch filled the 3D games in particular are
@@Vexal50 06, Lyric, Heroes, and the DX port of Adventure . Literally the only 4 3D Sonic games I found glitches in....
@@theminecraft2516 there's glitches in all of them, but those are the ones that have a lot of them, and the only ones with glitches that are game breaking
Really love the high detail from that closeup of Sonic after he pops up in front of Robotnik, plus the eyes following the person looking at their computer. It really goes to show how "alive" Sonic is in this creepypasta.
7:13 best fighting scene ever

"And tom was confronted with-"
"SUBWAYS SANDWICHES-"
Yo, the same thing happened to me!
Thing is I can't take this character seriously when he has the Kefka laugh
Kefka was pure evil in 16 bit form. That's what sold it for me LOL!
@@int963 I got creeped out after reading your comment while watching the video
Oh my god. I remember when Creepypastas like this were in its prime. I was just a kid and I was obsessed with these Creepypastas. I miss those days.
Remember Herobrine...
I loved creepypastas back when it was in its prime
Yes me too
Same but I was in middle school
Same!
Tom: Robotnik had never been playable in any of the main Sonic games.
Sonic Adventure 2: Am I a joke to you?
yes
Tom: yes
He forgot the most important part: that the story was actually so horribly written and full of cliches that they removed it from the site. :/
I have to AGREE
The creator got so mad lol
funnier than that: they put it on a site for intentionally bad stories
"Don't play it!"
Tom : I don't need to live, i need answers!
"What happened to Tom?"

Even Sonic cannot outrun his own demotion to a “trollpasta.”
from Sonic to Sonic.EXE to Sanic.
The original story....could've used a s***ton of more work.
@@cyberprime9355 that's a gross understatement.
This author did rewrite the story into a much longer one, and it's horrendous. Not only does he have no clue how college works--the main characters are college students--but also the characters basically just gather around and talk about how much they love Sonic games, which no college student ever does.
@@airenmarie1250 I'm thinking about that scenario.
(5 minutes afterward)
*Internally screaming in pain*
The story was supposed to be a creepypasta...not a commentary
@@cyberprime9355 It’s so bad that edgy elementary/middle schoolers that are too young to be on the internet enjoy it.
5:57 "Sonic shouldn't be able to fly"
Super Sonic: am I a joke to you?
He means in his NORMAL form. Also Super Sonic can't fly in the freeplay lol.
It didn't say Wich sonic
@@aidan_metallix72 I know. It was a joke
And hyper.
Never forget hyper sonic.
I remember being really interested in the concept of sonic.exe just because of the fact that sonic characters are known to fight back and try to survive,then it turned out to be a clinche.Still like the newer depctions of the story though.
1:56 Sonic be flipping Tom off
I like how tom is so melodramatic. Actual quote:
“this sonic, was a monster. A pure evil all powerful sadistic monster. I looked at tails, knuckles, robotnik, and kyle, and cried a bit. I pitied them for the agony they’re going through”
This creepypasta is honestly so bad it’s hilarious
Yeah
The story is bad but the description of the game sometimes terrorizes me when I was a kid
It’s so bad that I could write a better one even though I have zero experience with writing creepypastas
The creator of these two stories actually did a remake in 2017.
Is it real?
The scariest thing about Sonic are his fans.
especially the ones in deviantart
Sonichu
They have done awful things to him
Canon doesn’t even matter to them
What matters s they’re horribly written oc’s ships etc etc

Lol did you quote a UA-cam "celebrity"? Gross.
@@DR-sv8ke why is it gross
"Eggman was never playable in a main sonic game."
Me: ya never *cough cough* sonic adventure 2.
Pretty sure he meant back then not currently
I’d never thought in a million years I would ever think this channel would make a video on Sonic.EXE
It's currently 2 a.m. over here in India.
Yep, definitely the best time to watch this video :)
😂
For me its 3 am iran
5:22pm for me

Well I did not expect him to talk about Sonic.exe, but it's interesting to know how this one game made quite a incident
e
Eh it's fake
Who can beat sonic dot exe the zoom karen slayer
@@rocio5.yt5cruz29 That wasn't funny. Cancer was funnier than that joke.
Some people are taking this way too seriously when its just a story by someone on the internet that got noticed
Yup and they told stories from animes that many mistakenly thought were real.
Indeed. The original story is...laughably bad. On one end, it was a product of it's time. A time when the "cursed video game" trend was going through the motions.
On the other....it's so badly written that I have to wonder how self conscious this wroter was
I used to thought he would come after me as a kid
But I love the style though
But I mean this is how the game goes tho. Lol it's just not scary it's low key funny
well, this was fairly well timed, at least for the FNF mod.
anyway, this takes me back to middle school with the original fan game. Time to dust off the old nostalgia goggles.
3:21
"Dr. Robotnik, who has never been playable in any if the main Sonic games."
Sonic Adventure 2: "Am I a joke to you?"
@Jacob Barnett Eggman is playable but that is a spin-off and not a main title.
Doctor Robotnik's mean bean machine
@@mickiebrazile2238 That doesn't really count. Robotnik isn't actually playable. He's just the final boss. But if you want to put spin-off titles on the table, I raise you Sonic Drift for the Game Gear.
Man I’d love to see Infographic do a whole series on Game creepypastas
yess
Same
What's the difference between that and just....going to creepypasta?
@@walrusthelion creepypastas are horror stories and game creepypastas are horror stories about games. Self explanatory
@@UltraCenterHQ that's not what I meant. I mean why dedicate time and energy to videos on inforgraphics about such when you could just go to the original source? Not to mention the videos on net of people actually playing the game. Especially when the content is such internet drivel..
I don't know what's more hilarious, the animation itself, or the fact that people are still praising the groan-worthy edgelord fic that started them all
the funniest part about this is in this video theres actually a sonic fangame in that "sonic timeline" at 0:15
What's sad is there are some people out there which only know Sonic because of this lame creepypasta.
Edit: Nevermind, some people have made some really sick story lines out of Sonic.exe
The animation is the best part.
the original sonic.exe was a joke actually
@@Breakaway-ic5gj the sonic.exe story was a joke
So his friend needed help and Tom went “You know, I really should play a game…. Instead…” Maybe ‘friend’ was too strong a word to use.
It's human nature to be drawn to what is sacred or secret... Never tell a person (not) to do something or announce that it's forbidden... It's exactly what they will do... Better to not give it a name recognition to avoid it's temptation..once Pandora's box is presented... It will inevitability be opened
to make sure it doesn't sound tempting how would the best solution be to not let the "Pandora's box" be opened if the goal was not to be opened?
Bro im so scared by the fact that.. TAILS IS FAT THATS THE SCARIEST THING EVER 4:41
Knuckles: I'm Sonic's rival.
Shadow: No. I'm Sonic's rival.
Sonic.EXE: 😈
Robotnik has left the chat and went on a vacation to sonic boom
No, IM sonics Rival! says one of the various metal copies of sonic
That, is really unfunny- are you in some way related to Amy Schumer?
Sonic really do be flipping ppl off 2:12
"Eggman hadn't been playable in any of the sonic games"
SA2B: am i a joke to you?
He means in the classic games so 123 in adventure2 and riders he playable because it’s modern and not classic
Sonic exe was honestly the thing that lived in my nightmares for 2 years. I honestly got scared of that secret screen that you can find in the game that showed all those scary faces
If I were Tom, I would have honored Kyle's wishes. And destroyed the disc.
But you’re not Tom
2010s kids were making up ghost stories from their bedrooms,
90s kids were actively looking for ghost stories at the abandoned house down the street. The good ol'days!

I first saw this in July 2013 when I was 14 years old. I remember watching one of my favorite videos on UA-cam was Sonic Zombies. It was early in the morning, when I was searching for Sonic Zombies, I saw this video and I thought this was a different Song Zombie video and that’s when I saw Sonic.EXE, I had nightmares for months from July 2013 to April 2014.
I was about 7 when I first saw this in 2015. I had nightmares from 2015 to 2018,I’m twelve now. About to be 13.
I was never scared of him tho I found I out at 5 years old.
Cringe
i found him in 2017 and took kind of a break until 2021 (it scared me until 2019 tho)
I was scared of it from 2011 until 2021. It still scares me, but I know it's not real anymore.
8:32 what the heck man,almost trggired my cousin's seizure
Sonic.EXE: DO YOU WANT TO PLAY WITH ME?
Me: HECK YEAH
LOL
Infographics really did a great video in this, creepypastas don't really work on me as much, but this got me chills, they always do great presentation
I'm so glad that this made it to The Infographics Show. I remember being scared of Sonic for years because of Sonic.exe
Wth?
@@cheesybutter8484 its probably when he was younger, when you're younger you're more guillible and get scared easier

Can u uninstall it?
Why you lying
@@JAkefromthestate yeah it's uninstallable!
@@thevoicestoldmetoagain4627 I'm not, I'm saying the game play like having to run from Sonic (in game) not the whole curse thing 🥲
@@shoba1 ok thanks while I was playing it my PC was lagging
This video is very well done, does a better job of visually explaining it than most videos
4:40 "He Stood With His Back To The Screen" Him:Looking At Screen
This is the first vid I have seen without any dislikes (I may be proven wrong in about 3 hours)
Forget 3 hours , try 3 minutes
They disliked it just cuz they saw this. Good job.
Or in 15 sec
I feel like this channel has mad hatter’s that follow just to dislike
Well now there are actually 3 of them...
The answer is simple. It’s clearly Sonic being possessed by Mephiles the Dark.
But Mephiles is more of a manipulator, taking advantage of Silver's desperate search for a way to fix his world. Sonic.EXE, on the other hand, is what you'd get if you combined the Joker with a self-aware Monokuma, playing twisted games with his victims and weakening their hold on reality before brutally killing them, and loving every second of it.
@@aesiro1336 reminds me of a certain reality bending zombie clown
@@spectralknightgaming8364 You mean Pennywise? Well, he does have a similar nature to old Pennywise, but he doesn't have any shape shifting powers that we know of. However, this doesn't make him any less dangerous. In fact, I'm convinced that Sonic.EXE is more powerful than Pennywise could imagine. Sonic.EXE has pyrokinesis, telekinesis, and the ability to see into and absorb souls. He even has a strong charisma and even basic hypnotism. He canonically leads a whole cult that he has convinced to believe that he is a good guy.

6:40 a new level?
Like literally you know all the levels but still can't recognize scrap brain
In hindsight, I’m surprised this was able to scare my 12 year old self. The cliches were so strong with this one.
I was literally just watching sonic
You have opened up memories I wanted to forget
The pain has returned
Ah yes, the first creepypasta I’ve ever seen. So nostalgic….
8:50
"Ready for Round 2, Tom?"
This exe knew his name because his computer had his name. If his computer account name had "superman", then this exe wrote this "Ready for round 2, superman?"
3:43 That's actually knuckles' laugh from sonic 3 But with some reverb
6:42
So we're going to forget that the level is Scrap Brain Zone? Okay.
Knuckles does NOT have a laugh sound effect in Sonic 3
Most Sonic.exe thumbnails: scary, photorealistic Sonic with red eyes.
This thumbnail: *aW yEaH! tHiS iS hApPeNiNg!*
Seriously, he looks so derpy on this thumbnail. Perfectly fitting for how pathetic his creepypasta is.
I remember being obsessed with Sonic.exe. I don’t know why though
same
I still am
That's almost as bad as having a keen interest in sexually transmitted diseases.
@@pokemonmous574
I know 😆
Eggman has never been playable in any sonic game.
SA2: Are you sure about that???
I love how whenever someone sees something that said “do not” they desperately want to not listen
I am like thinking in sonic.exe saying " help me, yes it's me sonic, i'm stuck in this game, i felt strange, the corruption took over me and now this is how i look, please, help us and save me to get out of the game and recover me and my look, all you need is to de-" and then it cuts off
Cinemassacre played this game on their channel, it was a semi-playable hack, more someone's pet project than a true playable hack.
He played Ordinary Sonic Romhack, which is, indeed, a fan project that wasn't finished then
Aw man i remember sonic.exe was so disturbing and really scary back in then
Good old days man
I'm not dead...
Fun Fact: If You Type In A Code In Sonic CD SoundTest. You Will Access Majin Sonic.
i think Sonic exe has three drawbacks. He likes to play with his victim and it makes it difficult for him. And to enter the real world, he needs a physical body, and I think his physical body is the same as the Sonic body, because he is in fact a soul and has no body, and if his physical body is destroyed, he has to wait an hour to re-enter the real world. And his biggest weakness is that if his disk is destroyed, he will be killed. Forever.
Ouuu I didn’t expect this I know all about sonic.exe but I still wanna hear infographics talk about it !
Then first Sonic: The Movie trailer started to play
Sonic exe is just sonic with exe on the end
EDIT: just a joke
Kyle: *sends the game*
Also Kyle: Dude...do not!
People: *blaming Tom*
Out of context,
5:00 "granted with another disturbing message"
*The message:* "Hello. Do you want to play with me?"
