The Russian Sleep Experiment: Behind the Scenes
02:05

Indrocation-Russian researchers in the late 1940s kept five people awake for fifteen days using an experimental gas based stimulant. They were kept in a sealed environment to carefully monitor their oxygen intake so the gas didn't kill them, since it was toxic in high concentrations. This was before closed circuit cameras so they had only microphones and five inch thick glass porthole sized windows into the chamber to monitor them. The chamber was stocked with books, cots to sleep on but no bedding, running water and toilet, and enough dried food to last all five for over a month.
Reception-The Russian Sleep Experiment became immensely popular upon its original publication. It's considered by some to be the greatest and most shared creepypasta story ever.
Adaption-The Russian Sleep Experiment's popularity has lead it to various adaptions over the years. A novel based on the original short story was published in 2015.
Conclusion-"Have you forgotten so easily?" the subject asked. "We are you. We are the madness that lurks within you all, begging to be free at every moment in your deepest animal mind. We are what you hide from in your beds every night. We are what you sedate into silence and paralysis when you go to the nocturnal haven where we cannot tread."
The researcher paused. Then aimed at the subject's heart and fired. The EEG flatlined as the subject weakly choked out, "So... nearly... free..."
