Yes. What is The Rake?

This feral creature has been spotted and heard numerous times in the EMH universe.



YouTube: Link


His story, and his own being, originates like most other paranormal creatures.

Through creepypasta

While not much is currently known about this creature, you can expect to create a massive excretion in your undergarments whenever you hear his noises or see him hunting.

First appearance was in "Cops Checked, No Body", towards the end.

As to what it is, I still don't really understand. All I know is that he's vicious as hell and he drives people insane the same way a horde of zombies would; through its history of violence.

Notably, the Rake is more communicative than Slendy. There's a certain degree of verbal entrancement that goes on between the Rake's prey and the creature itself. Generally, the Rake seems a more earthly monster than the alien and distant Slender Man, preferring less subtle methods to drive its prey to madness, suicide, and destruction. Still scary as all hell though.

As for what the original Rake is? I'm not sure. Something that while beastly and cruel, was more after keeping what it felt was his, for instance in the original story it forced an entire ship to leave an area of land alone and return to England, rather than actively causing fear. I certainly don't think it lives on fear.

As for the EMH Rake? I think he is either the back end of Slenderman torture, what a person becomes when they loose everything; and is now acting as his attack dog

or

a weaker, native American equivalent of Slenderman, who is just invading, or perhaps thinks he is reclaiming, territory from the foreign Slenderman.

You mean, like from WhoVille? Then Alex and the rest of them must hate Christmas! That's why The Rake wants to kill them!
