* Fanfic [[Code Geass]] [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6389304/1/Code_Geass_bAwesome_b_of_the_bRebellion_b Awesome of the Rebellion] is most likely this.
* [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6061292/1/Code_Geass_Dance_in_the_Dark Code Geass: Dance in the Dark] by [http://www.fanfiction.net/u/2404617/animegirlamy2739 animegirlamy2739] seems to be another [[Code Geass]] based example. The other stories by the same author also seem to qualify.
* The ''[[Fullmetal Alchemist]]'' fanfic [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6272348/1/i_dont_to_keep_losing_you i dont to keep losing you] by [http://www.fanfiction.net/u/2227850/chrisy_cal chrisy cal] is either this or really bad.
* [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7537395/1/rembering_why_we_dont_rember "rembering why we dont rember"] , another ''Fullmetal Alchemist'' fanfic, is so terrifyingly bad that one can only hope that it is this.
* The concept of the Troll Fic is subverted and lampshaded in ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5614704/1/ The Influence of Haruhi Suzumiya]''. It starts as an ordinary troll fic with horrid grammar and offensive content and everything, but then it's revealed that the characters are being forced to use [[Rouge Angles of Satin|spelling mistakes]] and improper grammar due to Haruhi's desires, so the SOS Brigade go back in time (where they speak normally), kill [[Chrono Trigger|Lavos]] and restore things to the way they should be. The author had previously written some very good fanfiction, so he actually included a disclaimer on the fic so that people would know that he was not serious and that his writing skills had not degenerated.
* When the Polish President died in a plane crash in 2010, somebody wrote an ''[[Axis Powers Hetalia]]'' fic about it and posted it to the livejournal community. It was a person trying to make the Hetalia fandom look bad and this irritated fans. However, it doesn't stop Hetalia haters from accusing Hetalia fans of '''approving''' of such fics, which is far from the truth.
 
== [[Comic Books]] ==
* [[Iron Man]] trolls [http://www.fanfiction.net/u/2343172/BoxOfScraps everything].
* ''[[The Darker Knight]]''
* ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7575076/1/Batman_Hero_of_Gotham Batman Hero Of Gotham]'' is a ''Batman'' troll fic. [[Back from the Dead|Characters die and randomly come back to life]] (In Chapter 3, the Joker dies and [[Joker Immunity|then comes back to life for no reason]] in around 12 sentences) The Penny Plunderer is called "one of the most powerful villains in Gotham", and Crazy Quilt is called "the evilest villain ever" and actually kills Robin. Also, there's tons of bad grammar. Here's some quotes from the story:
{{quote|"STOP KILLER CROC YOU NOT GET WAY WITH MONEY!" Batman yell.
[[Department of Redundancy Department|"TOXIC PAINT WILL KILL YOU BECAUSE ITS TOXIC! TOXIC PAINT IS DEADLY!" Crazy Quilt yell.]]
Line 32:
* Unsurprisingly, ''[[Harry Potter]]'' examples abound.
**The most famous of them is ''[[My Immortal]]'', which is surprisingly ''not'' an Evanescence [[Song Fic]]. It could very well be offensive if it wasn't so over-the-top ridiculous in its execution. Some might argue that it [[Crosses the Line Twice]]. [[Poe's Law|If it's even a trollfic at all]].
*** After a decade of speculation and several people claiming its authorship, hopes that humanity wasn't (that) screwed whenwent up when a person claiming to be the actual author [https://www.fictionpress.com/u/518933/XXXblodyblaktearz666XXX finally revealed herself] in 2017. She happens to be a profesionalprofessional author nowadays, and she claimed that she was legitimately troubled at the time of the fic (which could explain some of the more baffling stylistic choices of the fic), and [https://rosechristo1.tumblr.com/faq-personal that she did intended it as a troll fic] all the time. While she seems to be the most probable candidate to be the actual Tara, inconsistencies with the story make the claim still dubious
** A somewhat more recent example is ''[[Imma Wiserd]]'' (also known as ''da magikal [N-word]''), a [[Harry Potter]] fanfic written in faux Ebonics and devoid of grammar, punctuation, and capitalization (aside from the warning, "IF U FLAM UR RASSIST").
** Another example from the ''Harry Potter'' fandom is ''In Love's Name''. Includes Hermione being abducted by a Blue Spider Monkey, a part where the author's keyboard starts spelling "z" instead of "y", Hermione being [[Driven to Suicide]] with her body "exploding in a veritable geyser of blood, guts and human limbs" and all forms of Squick. Also, some of the author's personal enemies make a cameo appearence.
** ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3081250/1/Kitsune_Chan Kitsune Chan]'' was eventually revealed as a ''[[Harry Potter]]'' troll fic created by [http://www.fanfiction.net/~rainejoybringer RaineJoybringer].
** ''[[30 "H"s]]'' seems to be advertised as one.
Line 51:
== Multiple ==
* Most stories by "THE CRACK LEMON KING" are troll fics and could cause your brain to melt just from how horrible they are.
* ''Raspephabio'' by [http://www.fanfiction.net/u/2369746/ Xxxxemo4everxxxX]. A... complicated fic which is a big [[Crossover]] of "[[Death Note|Deaf Note]]", ''[[Twilight (novel)|Twilight]]'', ''[[Axis Powers Hetalia]]'', "[[Bleach|Buhleach]]", "[[Pokémon|Pokemanz/Opkermans]]", "[[Vocaloid|Volcaloid]]", "[[Fullmetal Alchemist|Full Metail Alchemist]]", "[[Final Fantasy|Finale Fantosy]]", "[[Kingdom Hearts|Kinddung harts]]", "[[Barack Obama|Obomar]]", "[[Hillary Rodham Clinton|Hirrally Crintow]]", "[[Bill Clinton|Bihll Crintoe]]", "[[Iron Man|Irony Man]]", "[[Soul Eater|Suol Mater]]", Pedobear, "[[Harry Potter|Fappy Pooter]]", "[[Inuyasha|Inyuahda]]", "[[Cowboy Bebop|cawobai beepoop]]", "[[Ouran High School Host Club|Owruan]]" and [[Yu-Gi-Oh!|Yu-gay-ho]]. Has a lot examples of [[Mind Screw]], [[Spell My Name with an "S"]] and [[Crowning Moment of Funny]]. [[Your Mileage May Vary|Kind of]].
* Roughly three quarters of the fanfiction posted on [[Image Boards|/tg/]] is trollfiction.
* The collective works of [[Doom: Repercussions of Evil|Peter]] [[Peter Chimaera book of hsitorical faFfiction|Chimera]] were also done by an SA member ("Heisanevilgenius").
Line 57:
{{quote|'''Hans''': "I had idea when one day, I going in Berlin. Suddenly, everything in English! I could not understand it. It was like it in another language, so I make English and do stories in it. : D"}}
** Hans Von Hozel has received a [http://maxtaro.deviantart.com/art/Hans-Von-Hozel-fan-fiction-143163934 tribute] in Troll Fic form.
* [http://www.fanfiction.net/u/2194474/ComicsNix The works of] [[Comics Nix]] are just too [[Nausea Fuel|disgusting]], [[Gross-Out Show|repulsive]], horrifying, [[Refuge in Vulgarity|vile]] and [[Crosses the Line Twice|insane]] to possibly be taken seriously. Or to be linked here.
* [http://www.fanfiction.net/~pierretasse2 Pierre Tasse 2's works]. Most of them are ~three line [[In Name Only]] fics against the evil "britis" (sic), which cause something horrible to happen ([[Ed, Edd 'n' Eddy|a cul-de-sac being nuked,]] [[The Bible|The universe getting destroyed...]]) or they are killed off.
** His "Sonic To A Car" is a [[Random Events Plot]] in 400 words with no rhyme, reason, capitalization or respect for English rules of grammar.
Line 64:
** The author eventually came out and admitted that she was deliberately attempting to write the worst [[Fanfic]] possible. She ran with it after it became [[Memetic Mutation|memetic]], spawning art based on the [[Rouge Angles of Satin]] quotes and even an ''RPG adaptation''.
* The infamous Goku/Anne Frank Fic.
* ''Me & The Band'', featuring [[Avenged Sevenfold]] transported into the world of ''[[Neopets]]'', along with two abhorrent [[OCs]], at first starts out like a horrible accidental-pregnancy badfic and then [[It Gets Worse]]. Soon [[Dude, Not Funny|the drummer dies of a heart attack]] and the only thing that can save him is the Communist Manifesto. The rest is a complete [[Mind Screw]] beyond any sane person's comprehension in which everyone has gay sex, the Queen of Communism's ghost (who is somehow ''Ayn Rand'') shows up and attacks people with [[Pokémon|Hyper Beams]], the fourth wall is not so much broken as bombarded into dust by artillery, Sakura grows a penis, and the point of view moves around like a hummingbird on speed. It can actually be quite amusing, if one can understand it.
* The fanfic writer [http://www.fanfiction.net/u/2785537/SuperMegaEpicAwesome SuperMegaEpicAwsome] started out by writing troll fics. His first story, a ''[[SpongeBob SquarePants]]'' troll fic called "Patrick vs The World", had Patrick turning evil and killing everyone. He removed the story. He also wrote a second troll story, a ''[[Fear Street]]'' and ''[[Dora the Explorer]]'' crossover called [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6889183/1/Nowhere_to_run Nowhere to run]. However, instead of removing it, he decided to try to make it into a serious story.
* Anything by [http://www.fanfiction.net/u/1665791/Storyprovider Storyprovider]. [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7056476/1/moses_and_hitler_the_epic_battle Moses and hitler the epic battle] is a personal favorite of this troper.
* The Spider-Man/X-Men Evolution Fic (confusingly only under the X-Men Evo tab on fanfiction.net), [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7364414/1/bWeb_b_of_Shadows Web of Shadows] contains [[Character Shilling]] of notrious Spider-Man Scrappy and [[Creator's Pet]], Carlie Cooper, Rouge randomly being a satanist, and blantant bashing of fan favorite Mary Jane Watson of whom many see Carlie as a poor [[Replacement Scrappy]] for (and for those of you wondering, it had a well deserved spot on the So Bad Its Horrible page). The author complained about how everyone called Carlie a [[Mary Sue]], claiming that a Mary Sue was only a really cool character. Said author had written several decent stories in the past and seemed very anti-character bashing. {{spoiler|It turns out the last chapter of the fic has Carlie being arrested for the crime of being a Mary Sue, and exist to lampshade her general awfulness both in the comics and the fic itself, as well as being a tract against bad fanfic tropes in general}}.
* ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3287834/1/The_Calvin_at_Camp_Christmas_Carol The Calvin at Camp Christmas Carol]'' which was meant to be a [[Take That]] at uncreative "parodies" of ''[[The Muppet Christmas Carol]]'' that seemed to flood [[Fanfiction.net]] one Christmas. If you check the reviews, you can see that some authors got the joke and others didn't.
** In a similarl vein, [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3952482/1/How_to_Write_a_Movie_Parody How to Write a Movie Parody] is also a [[Take That]], but to all uncreative "parodies" in general. Almost all of the reviewers (not counting the anonymous spammer) seemed to get the joke and thought it was hilarious, save for two fanmake authors (one was confused, the other was butthurt).
 
== Music ==
* A troll by the pen name 'nntssbaby' terrorized the now-defunct Fandomination.net for about FOUR YEARS with the worst [[Good Charlotte]] fanfiction imaginable. Some of it ranged from stealth parodies of the melodramatic slash or Mary Sue stories posted on the site, but more than 100 were incomprehensible 'leetspeak' stories with recurring characters like a group of 'PUNXGOTH' escargot, Chris (the drummer who had left the band, and always spoke properly and intelligently), and a hobo Benji had apparently enslaved. It got so bad that the site's owner addressed it on the main page and deleted all the stories, only for them to return with a vengeance months later. According to nntssbaby's profile, s/he had more than 70,000 hits on the small, nearly niche website and dozens of MTS fics done on her work.
 
== Other ==
* The ''[[Serial Experiments Lain]]'' anime music video "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SZMh_nBSn-0 A Total Waste of 6:35] by XStylus is an [[Fan Vid|AMV]] version of a troll fic (a troll vid, if you will). Unusual in its lack of offensive sex and violence, it instead concentrates on deliberate repetition, static scenes where virtually nothing interesting happens, and a true [[Ear Worm]] of musical accompaniment (Groove Armada's "At the River"). The trolling nature of this is only increased by the Pop-Up Video-style dialogue bubbles representing a conversation between the AMV's creator and an [[Audience Surrogate|unidentified viewer]], where it becomes increasingly clear that that the real entertainment is the flabbergasted reaction of the audience. The video's AMV.org page goes on to say that the video is also a parody of both AMV creators [[Serious Business|who take themselves too seriously]] and those who put in too ''little'' effort (in this context, using low-quality footage that has subtitles and/or network watermarks).
* There is a community on Fanfiction.net called [http://www.fanfiction.net/community/The_Trollfics/96548/ The Troll Fics] that lists troll fics. Currently, there are 440 stories in the community. A troll named Rex Aurum Tempus discovered that some of his troll fics had been added to the community, and he wrote [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7575800/1/SHITSHIT_TITTYFUCK_CUNTLICK_ASS this], but it's now deleted.
* ''[[Greeny Phatom]]'' may be a "troll fic" towards the [[Vanity Plate]] and text-to-speech fandoms.
 
== [[Video Games]] ==
Line 86:
* ''[[Beta Threat]]'' for'' [[Modern Warfare]]''. Dear God, the horrors of [[The War on Terror]]...
** The same author has also written trollfics for every imaginable action, war, or [[Survival Horror]] game, including one for [[F.E.A.R.]] which basically constitutes the result of taking a synopsis of the entire series, throwing it into a blender, and writing down whatever's left. Among its moments include either "[[SpongeBob SquarePants|Pointy Man]]" or "Fast Soldier" (both are the same guy, a blend of all the games' protagonists) receiving Alma's (properly, Gurl's–but she seems to fulfill the same role as Alma) unwanted advances as per F.E.A.R. 2... but rejecting them [[Anticlimax|because]] [[Sorry, I'm Gay|he is gay.]] It also mocks the [[Press X to Not Die]] mechanics found in the series.
* A somewhat different approach to Troll Fic was done with ''[http://serebiiforums.com/showthread.php?t=105650 Lucki]'', a ''[[Pokémon]]'' fanfic written by a Serebii user by the name of icemew. After the "new trainer" story took a gradual turn for the dark, ending with a [[Kill'Em All]] [[Downer Ending]], icemew revealed herself to be the controversial fandom member Farla, who then went on point out that not only was the titular character a blatant [[Mary Sue]] (a technically well written one, but a Sue regardless), the readers' approval of the character's actions and refusal to dismiss the story as crap proved the [[Take That, Audience!|incompetence of the site's community]]. She was attacking a brand of [[Jerk Sue]] who doesn't rank high in Litmus tests for lack of outlandish characteristics, but are equally annoying and insidious for being [[Invincible Hero]]es who act as [[Author Avatar]]s and therefore can't do wrong [[Designated Hero|despite blatantly breaking the universe rules and mistreating everyone who doesn't agree with them]], things that most Litmus tests don't rank high enough or realize that exist.
* ANYTHING written by Asbertego. ''Far Cry 2'', ''Gears of War'', ''Killzone'', ''Modern Warfare'', ''Left 4 Dead''... This guy trolls practically every popular [[First-Person Shooter]].
* ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4307278/1/Lexaeus_Loves_Hot_Topic Lexaeus Loves Hot Topic]'', a gibberish-filled ''[[Kingdom Hearts]]'' and ''[[My Immortal]]'' fic. The author slipped up and referenced the "khfanficrants" [[LiveJournal]] community in his/her profile before taking it down.
Line 94:
== [[Web Comics]] ==
* [[Inverted Trope|Inverted]] by ''[[Sonichu]]'''s [[Hatedom]], where "trollfics" are normal fanfics with the moral alignments usually flipped. The most well-known is ''[[Asperchu]]'', the story of the Electric-Aspergers Pokémon and his grand adventures.
* ''The Baby Is You'' (link wisely omitted, although you can still find it with enough Google-fu) is, strangely enough, a ''musical'' one of these for ''[[Homestuck]]'' about [[Mister Seahorse|Dave being pregnant with John]]. It was made by a [[Toby Fox|member]] of ''Homestuck'''s music team in protest of a new forum rule - needless to say, the forum's staff clamp down very strongly on any mention of it.
* ''4chords'' is yet another ''Homestuck'' Troll Fic. It's about Karkat finding out, after hours of puking, that he's [[Mister Seahorse|pregnant with Gamzee's baby]]. The well-worded summary is good enough to get a laugh out of people.
* ''[[Large Bagel]]'' is something between a Troll Comic and a parody of bad anime.
* Someone posted a short on the ''[[El Goonish Shive]]'' forums about a character (narrating in first person) brutally killing the main cast. It spawned a lenghty discussion and analysis of what the author was trying to say with it before it was eventually forgotten.
 
== [[Western Animation]] ==
* Anything by ''The 6ft Dick''. He became so (in)famous that at one point there was an entire section dedicated to him in [[Encyclopedia Dramatica]]'s article on Fan Fiction.
* There is one ''[[Dragon Tales]]'' trollfic that told of Dragon Land becoming a police state and Cassie dies at the end of the fic.
* ''[[The Phrase That Pais]]'', a [[Total Drama Island]] [[Fanfic]] is about a [[Mary Sue]] who loves Duncan, Noah, Bridgette, even if the author swears he/she is not a troll.
