Reddit horror story heads to Hollywood, starring Sydney Sweeney

A Reddit horror story is making the leap to the big screen, with Warner Bros. securing the rights to adapt "I pretended to be a missing girl so I could rob her family" into a feature film starring Sydney Sweeney.

The original story, posted on the r/nosleep subreddit, a community known for its chilling "creepypasta" tales, captivated readers with its dark premise. The plot centers on a young woman who infiltrates a grieving family by impersonating their long-lost daughter, with sinister intentions.

The r/nosleep community, which encourages users to treat the stories as real, has become a breeding ground for online horror. The term "creepypasta" itself is a nod to the internet phenomenon of "copypasta," highlighting the viral nature of these narratives.

Sydney Sweeney will not only star in the film but also produce it, while Academy Award-winning screenwriter Eric Roth (Forrest Gump) will pen the script. Joe Cote, the Massachusetts English teacher who authored the Reddit post, expressed his astonishment at the project.
