sorry for the double post but this is also the first time Jay has verbally spoken to us the audience

THEORY TIME!

Me and my housemate have been talking, and we've both realized something. Slendy has had the opportunity to attack/kill both Alex and J in the past, but hasn't.

He isn't hunting them.

He's using them.

I dont know if anyone has noticed this, but i know that people believe the mask and the yellow part are separate. Well if so, why do they move as one? In the last few frames with the mask, the entire head turns.

Has it been considered that the camera "found" by Hot Blonde in E26 on 04/04/2010 was actually a camera planted there to be found by Alex, as a way of letting him know SM/Masky/TTA had found him.

My take on it is that Alex + Hot Blonde were out, free and clear for some length of time about 3 years. (The time since Alex washed his hands of it and took off.) He leaves, starts feeling better, finds a girl and starts building a normal life.

Meanwhile, his friend who talked him out of destroying the tapes starts stirring up the shit again.

Now, Alex + Hot Blonde, who thought they were free and clear. ( My guess is Hot Blonde was never told about anything...) are drawn back into this because of Jay's investigations.

SM obviously can only be detected via cameras / digital means. But it's like he needs the camera to be there to do anything. Alex swears off camera's, his life goes back to normal. Hot Blonde finds one, and his alarm bells start going off, but he's gotta play it cool so she doesn't think he's crazy. But, SM is ready for it and already there.

Make sense?

This entry lent a little evidence to a theory I've been playing around with. It might already have been discussed, in which case I offer my apologies, and feel free to skip. It's really been bothering me that there are at least two instances now where SM has been in very close proximity to someone he's stalked, what would be safe to call his "targets," and yet has seemed to either not notice or not care.

My roommate and I were discussing exactly WHAT Slendy did with his victims, and when the subject of organ-devouring came up, she asked me "but how the hell does he eat? He's got no mouth!" This made me wonder. How does he see, or hear, for that matter? He has no discernible eyes or ears from what we've seen.

I'm starting to believe that the only "sense" he possesses is tied heavily into the operating of electronic equipment, namely cameras. The way he seems to utterly ignore Jay in "Return", the fact that we've only ever seen him on camera, the fact that in 22 he attacked Seth (the camera-operator at the time) and not Alex first despite stalking Alex all that time, and the fact that he ignored Alex again in this latest entry and attacked the camera-operator (Amy, who I guess we are meant to believe is the blonde girl)...perhaps its because, at the time, Slenderman was unaware that anyone else was around. He can only "see" the person holding the camera.

No, I think that aja's talking about Slendy being attracted to the camera like a bee to an ultraviolet flower, or a moth to a light source. He may not be seeing the person holding the camera so much as he's seeing the emissions of the camera. There is a pulse right at the end of the video -- a white-out, I think people are calling it? It could be that SM is trying to interact with the camera... maybe he's hunting in a different sense from what we're used to?

[JKatkina]

Dur, fair enough!

Or it could be that thinking about him, or seeing evidence about him brings him to you. (She saw the old distorted tape, he appeared)
