Proof that the popular creepypasta, 1999 is fictional. One of the shows that supposedly aired on Caledon Local 21 according to the story is directly inspired by a real kid's show. One of the series the author had mentioned was called Booby and it was about a talk hand who lived in a house with other talking hands. The "show" about talking hands from the story was based on a real show called Oobi and was almost exactly like the way he mentioned it. Basically all the writer did was an extra letter to the title of Oobi and call it a day. Please note that I am not bashing this creepypasta whatsoever. It's in fact, one of the most well written ones I've read and is easily in my top 3 favorites. I was just explaining why it never happened which in all honestly, is a good thing. Many people were scared to death after reading this story because of how convincingly real the writer made it out to be. So to everyone who's been having nightmares about this story for years, now you can finally sleep peacefully again knowing that it never actually happened. 1999 is many things. Emotional, horrifying, well written, bonechilling, and paranoia inducing to name a few. Fortunately, true is not one of those things.
