When I first entered Lavender Town, back in the old R/B/Y days, I rarely had the volume on. The noise annoyed my siblings and often distracted me. However, I liked to occasionally take a quick peek at the music. So eventually I turned up the volume... and found myself entranced and horrified by the mysterious music. I kept it on as I climbed the graveyard tower, until I faced the ghost.
At first, I was angry at my Charizard; why was the level 36 beast scared of a little ghost? I listened further and found myself increasingly scared of Lavender Town. I quickly ran through the storyline, my subconscious terrified of the small town and its graveyard. It wasn't until many years later I heard the theories of Lavender Town, and they only confirm my belief of its spooky, disturbingly beautiful background. -------------------- Pane (click to show ) Percentages and Truths (click to show ) |

I wish someone would just PROVE that the kids either did or didn't commit suicide and all that crap. It's seriously either a silly rumor or crazy facts...

Lavender town really isnt that scary but it is cool because all you really fight is Gastly and the music is soothing to me.
Back when I played Blue in 2004, I was walked into Lavender town and completed the same day.The following night is that I had a nightmare of my family being killed. -------------------- |

When I was there the first time, I had no special thought.
The morbid stories came with the internet, it was interesting, but nothing more... no morbid feeling -------------------- |

Lavender Town isn't really scary at all, but its music is depressing. It's my favorite BGM of Kanto though. It's Pokemon Tower that gives me the heebie-jeebies. I hated the music in Yellow. Ergh, so annoying!
The only reason that Lavender Town is creepy at all is because of the creepypastas related to it. There's Buried Alive/White Hand, Gary's Raticate, Creepy Black Version, Lavender Town Syndome (LTS) and probably some others that I can't remember. So, all in all, there's no reason to be frightened of it. But, with my luck, I'll probably watch a HeartGold video and YouTube will crash right when it reaches Lavender Town. :P -------------------- I used to be Cyogre, ILoveTaillowHesCute, TaillowIsCuteAndCool, Tart Spop, Tartius Spopius, Tartii, King of the Eevees and MasteroftheFlames. If you know me under any of those names, yeah, that's me. In-Game Teams (click to show ) Hoping to get Social Networking! I'd really appreciate an add. Arcanine!

Scary isn't the word; unsettling is.
The music is unsettling, the story is unsettling and the things in the town are unsettling. Which is just as effective as being outright scary. But the more everyone goes on about it the less effective it is. Because at this point if I read one more "pokemon Creepypasta" with the words "LAVENDER TOWN" "LAVENDER TOWN THEME STARTED PLAYING" "LAVENDER TOWN THEME PLAYED BACKWARDS" "LAVENDER TOWN THEME PLAYED SLOWLY" I'm going to laugh because it's really one huge joke now. ((And just to elaborate: when I say the story is unsettling, I mean the slaughter of the mother Marowak by team rocket. Not the urban legend. Really, there's no evidence. The supposed song that's posted on youtube hasn't killed anyone. It follows the pattern of at least a dozen other creepypasta "someone listened/watched it and killed themselves". Of course it was probably one of the earlier ones written and as much as it annoys me to hear about I have to applaud whoever came up with it. I guess it's pretty unsettling too, I'll admit it. )) -------------------- |

I'm not sure which version I love on my mp3 but I love it... I don't find it very scary, but the mood is super interesting and a little spooky I guess. Mostly just pretty!
