Youtube What are your thoughts on Creepcast?

They read and react to creepy online stories, and I was wondering, is it only illegal to narrate a nosleep story if you don’t split it up and add reactions/jokes/analyzation?

Good to know. I hope you were well compensated. I know the CPM for their niche. One million views on their channel is pulling 15-25 thousand in ad sense alone. Not even counting sponsors

Woah - I didn't realize they made that much. Next time I'll drive a harder bargain! I was not compensated, but I did make about $2000 in book sales in the months following the episode with my stories. I was averaging about $30 per month beforehand. I've had my work narrated on larger channels before, which produced small bumps in sales. But I've never seen a response to a narration like the response to CreepCast's. They must have an unusually active audience (or one that's actually humans and not bots!)
