Context Trivia / CandleCove

1* {{Defictionalization}}: An "episode" of Candle Cove was made for ''Series/ChannelZero''. It's exactly as terrifying as you would expect it to be.
2* DisownedAdaptation: Kris Straub, the creator of the Creepypasta, has admitted that he doesn't like the fan sequels to ''Candle Cove''.
3--> '''Dustin Koski''': Which, if any, of the unofficial sequels written for it are your favorites?
4--> '''Kris Straub''': Oh man, none of them are my favorites. The reason is that they all [[MeasuringTheMarigolds try very hard to explain what Candle Cove is]], when [[NothingIsScarier not knowing]] is why the story resonated. There’s this string of fanfics where it’s revealed that Candle Cove is the work of an old Nazi named Altman Bachmeier. You tell me why a Nazi would be hanging out in West Virginia or Kentucky in 1971, and why he’d bother making a puppet show to scare kids. I guess “Nazi” is shorthand for “the most evil thing anyone can think of.”
5** In an odd subversion, he states that there was a TV adaptation being made in UsefulNotes/{{Uruguay}} that he would have loved... had they sought his permission first. Seeing as they didn't (they assumed it was public domain), he's instead upset with them and issued a cease-and-desist.
