An artist on Reddit described exactly that, said they wanted to draw creepypasta characters but had no idea where to start, and floated building a wheel to decide for them.
A creepypasta wheel spins across the characters and lands on one. Use it for drawing prompts, writing starters, roleplay casting, or working through a list you keep meaning to get to.
The wheel is above with the roster loaded. Below you will find how to build a drawing pool, the classic and modern split, and how to run a long art challenge.
What is a creepypasta wheel?
A creepypasta wheel is a free random picker holding creepypasta characters. Spin it and it lands on one, which decides your drawing subject, your writing prompt, or a character to research. Edit the pool before you spin.
The genre has no official roster, which makes this different from a wheel for a single series.
Characters come from hundreds of separate stories with no central list, so an editable pool matters more here than almost anywhere else.
How do you use the creepypasta wheel?
Edit the list to the characters you actually want, then spin. The wheel lands on one of them. Turn on remove after pick to work through a drawing challenge without ever repeating anyone you have already finished.
Three steps:
- Remove anyone you do not want to draw and add anyone missing
- Spin and let it land
- Remove the result once you finish it and spin again next session
Build your own drawing pool
| Pool | What is in it | Good for |
|---|---|---|
| Classic | The well known early characters | Recognisable art and wide appeal |
| Modern | Newer and less common entries | Standing out and rediscovery |
| Your own list | Only the ones you type in | A challenge you actually want to finish |
| Full list | Everything on the wheel | Surprise and discovery |
How do you run a drawing challenge?
Load your pool, turn on remove after pick, and spin once per session. Each character leaves the wheel when you finish them, so the pool shrinks toward zero and you never draw the same one twice by accident.
The problem with challenges that span weeks is losing track of where you got to.
Two ways to handle it:
- Share the wheel link to yourself after each session, so the remaining list returns when you reopen it
- Keep the spin history, which shows everyone completed so far in order
For the mechanics of the removal setting, see wheel of names without repeats .
Who is on the wheel?
The visible list shows every character in the pool before you spin. The genre has no canonical roster, so the list is a starting point rather than a definitive one, and you are expected to edit it.
That is an honest description rather than a limitation. Creepypasta characters come from independent stories with no central authority deciding who counts.
So the page does two things instead of claiming completeness. The list is visible and countable, and adding a character takes as long as typing their name.
Is the creepypasta wheel random?
Yes. Every character left in the pool has exactly the same chance on every spin. The result comes from your browser's own random number generator, and the animation reflects that draw rather than deciding it.
Editing the pool changes who is eligible, not the odds between whoever you left in.

What other art prompt wheels are there?
Character wheels work the same way with different lists loaded, and several of them get used for exactly this kind of drawing challenge. Pick the pool you want and the list is already sitting there on the wheel ready to spin from.
