Soooo Slender man

[RamesesII]

This new urban legend craze has seemingly caught like a house on fire what are your thoughts, do you like the idea?

It was pretty well done it took me a bit to find where it was created trying to sort through all the BS.

It is quite interesting a little bit of knowledge is a harmful thing put it in the right/wrong hands and it spreads like wild fire.

I've seen more than my fair share of memes about it, and I'm quite curious. I know it's free, but I'm too lazy to download it haha.

I'll play it tonight, if i remember. I hope it's as scary add it sounds; i remember being scared as hell playing the original resident evil when i was like 10

I haven't played the game about Slenderman yet, but I watched a video yesterday of like 10 or 11 drunk guys playing very hilarious. Doesn't seem like something that would honestly scare me very much, but we shall see.

What is this?

[Mystyrion]

Are you referring to slender man or the game slender?

I've heard about Slender Man before it was popular, but not much.
Roommate swore he saw him once -_-

The game is fun. It's really scary the first time through and became less and less scary for me.
There is another game, Sanatorium I believe that is the exact same just in a different location. Enemy AI moves a little differently and some music changes.

It's also free.

Slender man was created in some photoshop contest I think. Then shit got real and everyone was like 'OMG I saw him when I was a kid' and from there a whole AU game was created that people are into. I'm pretty sure there is a whole wiki about it. I've never played the game and I hear that the new movie Tall Man is based off the Slender Man idea, saw the trailer and thought it was pretty awful. I'm sure fans will be the pissed off.

Dammit, Rameses . I had an idea for a thread closer to October all about Halloween, and one of the things I wanted to do was to do write-ups on horror movies as well as a special post dedicated to Slenderman. Oh well.

Anybody that wants to read up on the mythology should take a look at this. The coolest part of the whole Slenderman thing is that it's a modern urban legend that's constantly changing and evolving.

In terms of youtube series, I recommend starting with: Marblehornets (the original and still the best), EverymanHYBRID (starts great but is pretty convoluted at this point unless you're following every little thing they do), and TribeTwelve. If you like those, then you can be like me and delve way too deep into all this shit. I think at some point someone on creepypasta had compiled a list of all blogs and video series related to Slenderman.

The only problem with an urban legend like this is that EVERYONE knows that it's fake. Now the grifter...that's real. I knew a guy that watched it and killed himself 10 seconds afterward o:

I've heard nothing but bad reviews of that game. Basically, it makes you lose once you get to the end lol it looks silly, but I suppose I may play it one day when I'm really bored.

I had to look up what slenderman was, because I've actually never heard of it before. Was expecting something slightly more creepy. Theres an aboriginal legend about 9' tall beasts covered in fur from head to ... foot? Anyway, my friend swears that he saw a pack of them when exploring one of the great bushland forests we have here, near my house actually. His uncle owns part of the land, so they went exploring one day through the bush and came out into a large open area before continuing through another bushy area covered by large gummtrees. The more they traversed, the more they started to get worried about not being able to find their way back. They all had machette's with them, because you've got to be an absolute moron to go walking through Australian wilderness without a weapon of some sort. The biggest thread in this particular area was wild dogs. Anyway, as they traversed (my friend and his 2 buddies) they noticed these large mounds of what appeared to resemble Hay stacks. They wondered why there would be hay stacks way out in the bushland. He then explained this to me. The distance between themselves and what they saw would have been about 50 metres (please excuse my hybrid of the metric system, its an aussie thing) and he noticed that they hay stacks were actually creatures and when they stood up, they could have been as tall as 9' and covered completly in fur, no features were visable. He said that there were about 5 or 6 of them and they had all stood up simultaneously, as if they had spotted them and all decided to stand. The strange part was, as my friend saw this, he began to walk to the side, in order to backtrack. The beasts then began to mimic his movements, whilst keeping their distance. he moved back and forth and they copied him, not moving a step closer to him. So then he decided to take a step forward, at which point they began to charge him. In that instance, he and his friends ran like they had never ran before, through the bushland, hacking away at any branches or bush in their paths.

I then asked him
"bro, thats some pretty full on story. You sure all that happened?"

And then he said
"Well we continually made stops to smoke joints and drink beer"





So there you have it. Australia is a bunch of stoned and drunk people walking around the outback with machette's.

If I were high and saw bigfoot...I would die. Not shit myself, not freak out, just die. My heart would just give out. Anyway, not far from my house, some crippled guy who has been saying bigfoot (or the Ohio version at least. We call it the grassman) has been living behind his house for years finally got a video of what ever it was. I went with a couple of other people and watched this damn video at least 20 times. He showed us the spot it was recorded, which was on top of this reeeally high cliff behind his house. Anyway, the video was half way decent for a camcorder (it WAS digital though) but you see it clearly enough for being so far away. It was about 8 foot tall, walking upright with it's arms swinging near its ankles. I'm basing the height on the trees, but it was ****ing tall. Its fur also happened to look greenish. (like the legends of the grassman)

Now, I wont say I know what it was, but based on its arms, it wasn't ****ing human. It was walking upright as well, there are bears around here, but a bear this was not.

Can you get this video uploaded?

[OceanEyes28]

I've been watching that damn Marble Hornets youtube feed. Creeped out now, thanks.

[Lacquer Head]

Even a member of Allegaeon wanted me to upload this video when I talked about it. Idk the guy all that well, but I can talk to my uncle who IS friends with the guy. He doesn't want it to go public so much because he grows certain things that "some people" might not appreciate lol

I might be able to convince him that it's anonymous and stuff if I DO talk to him. He's really big into cryptozoology, so maybe I can make up shit about "the cause" and all that lulz

[RamesesII]

This is the birthplace of slender man
Polk was right it was just created in a forum where they create supernatural pics etc took me a while to find it but I did nonetheless.
Polk is right it was just created here in that forum and it seems to be a forum where the edit and create paranormal pictures etc and it just seems that some one actually took the slender man idea and ran with it there is even several comments about that.

The games don't seem that scary I have watched the videos and they look boring as hell.

Started watching the MarbleHornets videos what a load of bull haha. I was watching entyr 16 where he says he gets an tip to where he could find Brian.
1: Why turn uo at night unless it was a fair way away and you just happened to get there on night.
2 You find a door open they first thing I would do is find a light switch he doesn't even try to turn the lights on.
3 If it was an anonymous tip about Brian why call out Alexs name first.

Slenderman is creepy pasta.

MarbleHornets have done bloody well they even have me creeped out by this sh#t so much so that I had to stop at entry 23 or 24 late last night, but curiosity got the better of me and I kept watching it the next day. It is done quite well but the could have talked more in idk that's just my opinion.

Creepypasta Wiki I've spent hours on this site. The Pokemon creepy pastas are always good. Happy Appy is LOOOOONG and has some good moments, and painfully bad ones. Mainly the narrator being a bad ass...and his terrible writing skills for a fight scene lol
