THE STORY 

The original game is programmed to have incredibly random and strange occurrences that were all based on a series of dreams that the developer had kept in a journal, however, things escalate as the player comes across extremely violent and gruesome images of real life murders until he reaches the end where the player is given a link to a website with a message written in Japanese. 

It just so happens that the player has a friend who is fluent in Japanese and asks him to translate the message. After the message is revealed, his friend tells him what the message translates to and to never tell him anything else about the game. Two weeks later it is revealed that His friend traveled to Japan and murdered the lead designer of LSD and shortly killed himself soon afterwards.

It is strange just how effective LSD Dream Emulator is as a creepypasta when it actually is not that different from the myriad of other video game creepypastas that tend to also involve a lot of gore. Of course, similarly to Jack the Ripper Game, LSD on its own is a game where this type of discovery would not be far off seeing as how LSD is a rather Disturbing game on its own and it did have some scary aspects such as an alleyway with hanged corpses and a grey man that stalks you through certain dreams. However it is simply the execution that makes LSD Dream Emulator as great as it is. The game itself is already weird but it slowly starts to escalate, and considering that the actual ideas of images used already put a disgusting image in your mind, it really helps drive home the point.
