Penpal by Dathan Auerbach
4.0

Definitely reads like the r/nosleep and creepypasta posts it was originally written as, but that doesn't detract much from the overall creep-factor. You'll be able to piece the story together as the narrator slowly reveals his past in non sequential chunks and chapters.

As I described it to my husband: "Remember that episode of X-Files, 'Irresistible' with Donnie Pfaster? He was just a regular guy, nothing paranormal about him, but he was probably one of the scariest people on that entire show. That's this book."
