Kauhukorppi
In 2011, a copyright dispute broke out between the Hevisaurus members and Sony Finland, who both claimed to have rights over the brand and characters. This led to the members temporarily creating a separate band represented by the same characters, SauruXet. Unfortunately, however, court ruled in Sony's favor, and Hevisaurus had to bend to their wishes, disbanding SauruXet in 2012 and reforming Hevisaurus.
Komppi Momppi, the apatosaurus drummer of Hevisaurus, was the main member to voice concern and disappointment in Sony Finland's actions. Upon seeing the results of the court case, he expressed that he was enraged, but knew he could do nothing about it, saying in an interview that he "felt all creative control and merit of the band was now in the hands of a corporation", of which he was not optimistic about in the slightest, he clarified.
The members reported increasing concerns regarding Komppi Momppi, as they felt he would sometimes "act completely unlike anyone on earth ever has" and would also note about an increase of night terrors since the incident. This series of events went unexplained for several months until a disturbing 2014 photo was released, with the author claiming it to be unedited. The photo will be shown below.
Tumblr media
Taken May 24th, 2014.
The photo, supposedly of Riffi Raffi and Komppi Momppi mid performance, reportedly became heavily corrupted and damaged as soon as the author had gone home to print it. Most notably, Komppi Momppi is seen heavily distorted with a shadowy face and an elongated smile or grimace. The author also then reported having difficulty sleeping that night.
Shortly after this photo was uploaded online, it gained mass popularity not just within the Hevisaurus fan community, but the rest of the world as well. "Memes" and shocking statements were also made in reference to the photo, one of which spreading the popular hoax that staring at the photo for more than ten seconds would cause the viewer to go into fatal cardiac arrest.
The news eventually spread to the Hevisaurus band members themselves, who had elected to not comment further on the topic.
Fans have since theorized and discussed the phenomenon- where it came from, why it only shows up in photos, why it doesn't show up in every photo, why it distorts photos and how to minimize said distortion, and whether or not it is a sentient being that holds malicious intent. The entity eventually gained the nicknames "Mirror Momppi", "Shadowsaur", and "Kauhukorppi"- the last of which coming from the supposed pattern of photographers describing their nightmares as being heavily assaulted and disfigured by a murder of crows. The cryptic entity had attracted a community of its own, which would then gather to make their own online forum known as "KauKoBoard".
A few fans eventually figured out that a key factor to the level of distortion in a photo was the amount of focus and motion. If a camera were to be unfocused, or if the subject were constantly moving around, the final photo would appear heavily distorted, with the opposite seemingly resulting in clearer, more coherent photos.
Another factor that was eventually discovered was proximity to the entity, which can nullify the aforementioned focus trick. Depending on how close the photographer is to the entity, distortion will still occur, gaining stronger the closer the two are. The discovery was a disappointment to some in the community, especially those who had plans to capture close-up photos of the entity.
Other fans eventually noticed that higher-quality, lower-distortion photos depict more accurate versions of the entity's appearances, which are thought to be its "true form". As of writing this article, there is only one photo considered "over 90% clear" that mostly shows the entity's true form, shown below.
Tumblr media
Taken April 30th, 2018.
Features of note include the general body proportions becoming elongated, the spiked hand and leg cuffs changing to metal chains, the spiked collar instead being covered in barbed wire, and the jacket becoming significantly frayed. The original photographer uploaded the photo anonymously and has not been identified to this day. The location has not been found, either. Despite the mysterious circumstances of the photo and its origins, however, fans generally cite it as a highly reliable reference of the entity's physical appearance.
Although significant advancements were made in the techniques for capturing the entity in photos, the explanation behind the reason for its existence and its intentions was still missing. One popular theory is commonly cited, written by forum user HedoniSt0rm: "The Kauhukorppi is a manifestation of the hatred Komppi Momppi has for Sony's decision; it's a being that holds all of the spite and need for revenge that he gave up and threw away. [...] Above all else, it radiates hatred, but only for a specific group of people- those who see the band as a product."
This statement is backed up with several witness statements speaking up on their experiences with photographing or interacting with the entity. A significant correlation made was that the entity never made any hostile or violent moves towards individuals under the age of 18, and was especially gentle towards those under the age of 13, with both demographics never reporting any instances of night terrors or induced paranoia.
A groundbreaking discovery would then be made soon after fans found out about the entity's passiveness towards children. Several forum users shared an allegedly unedited photo of the entity interacting with a young child, shown below.
Tumblr media
Taken September 26th, 2019.
Most notably, the child's face is censored out and their body is covered in blood. Many fans initially were horrified and outraged, seeing this as a direct message from the entity about its intentions, until others noticed the lack of blood present on the entity's body. The eventual conclusion drawn was that the photograph was meant to represent the entity kneeling beside a child that had died of unrelated causes (note that the actual child in the photograph is alive- the discussion was pertaining to the symbolism of the photo distortions that the entity made).
Now aware of the fact that the entity was capable of actively manipulating photos, fans wondered about other abilities it potentially had. Forum user HedoniSt0rm, creator of the previously mentioned popular theory on the entity, talked about potentially using it as a way to communicate with the entity by taking photos after asking it questions. When asked if they would attempt this idea, they said they "had the ability to, but probably not the guts". It is worth noting that the user has not been active since the creation of that thread in 2019.
Below is a compilation of photos taken and uploaded by fans, which showcase varying quality and distortion.

CONTEXT
this is a fictional story formatted as an article for the sake of immersion. all text under the cut and above the context is fictional and for entertainment purposes. the first paragraph, however, is a true event that inspired me to make this entire story! (i should also note that the member who performed as komppi momppi at the time was indeed the main person to fight against sony in the case, that was also a true fact. everything written afterwards is fictional. i have some more planned for this little silly idea and i wanna know what everyone thinks :) it feels strange to bring back creepypasta (or at least creepypasta-heavily-inspired media) in 2024 but i am hoping itll be taken well. enjoy !!
