About the Business

Originally founded in April 2008, a popular horror website has grown from a basic archive to a platform receiving tens of thousands of amateur writing submissions each year. It has garnered attention from major outlets like Buzzfeed, BBC, and The Guardian, and is archived by the Library of Congress due to its significance in internet folklore. Currently available for sale, the package includes the main site, a secondary domain, a Facebook fan page with 180,000 fans, a private group with 20,000 members, an email list of nearly 12,000, and a mobile app with over 5,000 downloads. The site owner provides training and ongoing support for the new owner. The business is largely automated, allowing daily operations like publishing new stories and updating social media to be completed in under 30 minutes. Despite its minimalist management approach, the platform maintains substantial traffic and revenue, primarily through Google Adsense and Admob. Recently, a mobile app was launched and has begun to generate revenue. Operational costs are minimal, primarily consisting of hosting, an email service provider, and notifications. Marketing efforts have been focused on SEO and social media, yet numerous opportunities exist for growth. The future owner can potentially increase traffic and revenue by enhancing the mobile app, fostering the online community, and publishing more content. The current owner seeks to sell due to commitments to other projects and is prepared to offer guidance to ensure a smooth transition and continued growth for the new owner.

Flippa’s platform is free for buyers. Here are our tips for first-time buyers:


Before making an offer

1. Look for verified sellers. Sellers should verify their email, phone, and government ID. When a seller has completed all verifications, we identify them with a checkmark like this:

2. Review financials. Financials are seller-provided inputs. Always ask for verified financials. Ask for a tax return or request access to their dashboard. if it’s an ecommerce store get a transaction report.

3. Review traffic. Sellers can grant you access to Google Analytics. Ask for read-only access to verify site traffic.

4. Schedule a call. Communication is key. The best way to find out more is to speak directly with the seller. For your protection, keep all communication within Flippa.

5. Make the offer on Flippa. We’re here to help. Flippa does not charge buyers and by making an offer on Flippa you’ll get access to our post-sales support team.
