Main Story: Honora Petrova's Tale
Discovery of the Wikipedia Page
Corinne introduces the central story of the episode—a Creepypasta (a modern urban legend):
- Corinne Vien [05:03]: "Honora Petrova was born in Portland, Oregon... One day, she decided to Google her name and discovered a Wikipedia page predicting her future."
Honora, a passionate figure skater, finds that her Wikipedia page not only lists her achievements but also predicts future competition results, including events that haven't occurred yet.
Success and the Mysterious Predictions
- Sabrina Deana-Roga [12:51]: "She was thinking, 'Is this me or someone else?'... The page predicted she would win the Crystal Classic, which she did the next day." (Timestamp: 12:51)
This uncanny accuracy boosts Honora's dedication, leading her to pursue figure skating more intensely with hopes of Olympic success.
Sabotage and Accident
Pressure mounts as Honora's Wikipedia page continues to predict her competition outcomes. Suspicion arises when during a crucial event:
- Sabrina Deana-Roga [26:53]: "She was hit by a skate blade during her friend's performance, leading to her disqualification." (Timestamp: 26:53)
The incident fosters rumors that Honora might have sabotaged her friend, pushing her into a downward spiral of ostracization and mental distress.
Escalation to Curses and Death
Desperate for help, Honora attempts to alter her Wikipedia page, only to find sinister remarks being added:
- Sabrina Deana-Roga [25:30]: "Honora Petrova is a selfish little bitch going to get what she deserves." (Timestamp: 25:30)
As the negative edits escalate, tragic events unfold, including the mysterious death of her parents and the eventual demise of Honora herself under unexplained circumstances.
Discussion on Obsession and Internet Dangers
Throughout the narrative, Corinne and Sabrina reflect on the themes of obsession and the perils of the digital age:
-
Corinne Vien [41:25]: "It's the dangers of wanting something too bad." (Timestamp: 41:25)
-
Sabrina Deana-Roga [42:00]: "When something is all-consuming... it can either empower you or destroy you." (Timestamp: 42:00)
They draw parallels between Honora's story and real-life scenarios where excessive focus on one's goals can lead to unintended consequences, emphasizing the thin line between determination and self-destruction.
