Sonic.EXE Rewrite is a popular fan-made take on the classic creepypasta, originating from a 90s scam where a priest sold a fake "talk to God" computer program that was secretly an evil digital entity (Rewrite) seeking to become a god by consuming souls, evolving from a flawed EXE into a self-aware, reality-bending being that manipulates players through corrupted games and digital haunting, as seen in FNF mods and various fan continuations.
