Creepypasta and scary-story shorts are a whole niche — a tense narration, gameplay underneath, captions carrying every line. Nova produces it: paste the story or a Reddit horror thread, pick a voice, and it narrates over looping gameplay with captions timed to the read. Finished horror shorts, no camera and no editor.

## What you get

### Story to short in one paste

Paste your scary story, or the text of an r/nosleep-style thread, and Nova narrates it in an AI voice over looping gameplay — the creepypasta format assembled from text alone.

### Captions carry the tension

Word-by-word captions synced to the AI narration keep every line readable on a muted feed and land the beats in time — the format horror pages depend on, burned in automatically.

### Feed the niche daily

Nova generates the voice and the background, so a horror short is one paste instead of an evening of editing — enough to actually post at the pace the niche rewards.

## FAQ

### How do I make a scary story video without filming?

Paste the story text or a Reddit horror thread into Nova's faceless mode. It narrates the story in an AI voice, lays it over looping gameplay, and burns in word-by-word captions — a finished vertical horror short, no camera.

### Can I use creepypasta or my own writing?

Both — type or paste your own scary story, or copy in the text of a Reddit horror thread and Nova reads it. Either way you get a captioned vertical short over gameplay.

### Is it free?

Your first faceless short is free — no card. Nova gives every new account one full faceless render so you can judge the voice, the captions and the finished video before paying for anything. After that, any paid plan — from $15/month — makes them unlimited. (Regular AI clipping has its own free tier: 30 minutes a month.)
