The story has its origins in an earlier story created by a [[DeviantArt]] user named Sesseur in 2009. In this version, Jeff's face is disfigured after a gallon of acid is accidentally poured onto him while cleaning his bathtub. The image associated with Jeff the Killer, which depicts a pale, white-faced figure with deep-set eyes and a sinister smile, is believed to have been created by Sesseur and first appeared on DeviantArt or [[Newgrounds]] in 2008, shortly after the story was posted on the Creepypasta Wiki. However, the image was originally uploaded in 2005 to the now-closed Japanese site, pya.cc. The figure's hair is long and black, and his face is covered in black markings that are often described as scars or burns. The image has been modified and adapted by numerous artists and fans over the years. However, the creepypasta received controversy after it was believed on 4chan to be an unedited picture of Katy Robinson, a woman who committed suicide in 2008. The claim was later debunked, and it was confirmed that the image of Katy Robinson originated from the site, TrueChristian.com. | |||
