[[http://www.mfproductions.ca/thecreepypuppetproject.htm The Creepy Puppet Project]] is a WebOriginal project on Website/YouTube from the mind of Canadian puppeteer and special effects artist Matt Ficner. The premise is [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin exactly what you think it is:]] a series of mostly unconnected shorts using puppetry, while using [[UncannyValley a lot]] [[{{Gorn}} of]] [[BodyHorror horror]] [[OurZombiesAreDifferent tropes]] to elicit either [[NightmareFuel that reaction]] or [[BloodyHilarious the other reaction.]] Either way, it's one of the more entertaining shows on Website/YouTube ([[WidgetSeries and one of the weirdest]]), with some high-quality writing and excellent production values.

* OurZombiesAreDifferent: Singing zombies, [[WidgetSeries need I say more?]]

** ''Dusty Zombies'' is one big ShoutOut to ''Music/{{Kansas}}'', who wrote the song "Dust in the Wind."
* WidgetSeries

* BodyHorror: Taken UpToEleven, due to the fact that puppets allow more "freedom" than typical zombie make-up.

* ConspicuousCG: Later videos used green screen backgrounds. It shows.

* ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin: [[CaptainObvious Yeah, pretty much.]]

** The resident [[TheDitz ditz]] has a passing resemblance to [[TheMuppets Beaker]].

** Two of the zombies are named [[StanWinston "Stan" and "Winston."]]

** The fat zombie has a striking resemblance to [[Left4Dead a boomer.]]

* ShoutOut:

** The resident RalphWiggum has a passing resemblance to [[TheMuppets Beaker]].

* EnsembleDarkhorse: The zombies weren't supposed to be that popular, but they keep showing up in almost all subsequent videos

* GrowingTheBeard: The whole thing was far more serious at first, [[{{Narm}} to the detriment of the video]]. Then, ''Dusty Zombies'' came along, and that's when the series got more attention.
* HighOctaneNightmareFuel: The other 50%.

* UncannyValley: Well, it's called the "[[MeaningfulName Creepy Puppet Project]]", right?
* VisualEffectsOfAwesome: Sometimes, you have to be reminded that this is a WebOriginal.

* ClockPunk: Doc. Whatnought.
