What if I told you it makes some sense?

What if Dr. Corenthal - in his attempt to fight Slenderman, somehow, became Slenderman?

We know that before Corenthal's apparent suicide, Slenderman seemed to be killing everyone he visited. Dr. Corenthal gets fed up with this crap and takes on Slenderman. Or alternatively, he goes totally insane and becomes Slenderman. That is to say, Slenderman is sort of a role that gets passed down from person to person.

Although Slenderman has done some messed up stuff, he's had opportunities to kill all of the Mining Town Four expies, but hasn't. Why? Because the little bit of Dr. Corenthal left inside him recognizes them as his kids, so he won't kill them.

... this made more sense in my head.


What if Slender Man is actually a white balverine?


...and Proxies are normal balverines?

While I doubt Doc Corenthal Tall Dark and Faceless, I do suspect the normal-caps phantom tweets ("Take solace in the rain, my children. It only means I'm near.", etc.) were by the good doctor.

Which would raise an interesting question, if true:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The normal caps "Voice" is told by HABIT to leave, that HABIT "inHABITS THIS SANCTUARY"

Does that mean, if the voice is the Doc, that he's a possessing force now too?

It would also explain the part about "They are already mine," as Corenthal fighting for the fates of his children.

Corenthal becoming an eldritch horror?

Good times.

This conversation came up before. I personally think the calm twitter posts were by Slenderman, because the "Take solace in the rain" thing is so something he'd say.

Yeah, fits in with Steph's obsession with floods, too

To be honest, I feel the most telling part about that is "my children", not the rain stuff...And 'solace' interests me as a word choice, too. You know, maybe it IS Corenthal...I need to rewatch the Corenthal Connection, I think.

It's just a ton of speculation, but as long as we're taking Habit at his word..it's sorta implied that Corenthal has become something/someone else. All that "fate worse than death" jazz.

I don't want to cross any streams or anything or invoke movies like Pumpkinhead, but maybe Corenthal became Slendy...somehow?

From Slendys seemingling lack of menace towards the guys...it could be "plausible"..i guess? I don't know.

It'd be a lot easier if just knew what happened to the good Doctor. But along those same lines, I'd also like a pony. Neither of these things are happenening too soon or easily.

Well Habit called the person he was talking to "The Big Guy".Would he call Dr.C the Big Guy?

Perhaps HABIT believes Dr. Corenthal to be rotund?

If HABIT had a main connection to Mining Town Evan, Yes. If he doesn't than No. I will say it's more likely regardless that he was referring to Slenderman by saying that Big Guy suchness.

I think you're right, actually, but that (and the possible implication that he was protective of MT4 Vince) puts Slender Man's motivations in a weird light. He considers the Hybrids his children? What could that possibly mean? Especially considering that the Everyman Prophecies seem to be pitting the humans against the eldritch horrors. I can't help but believe there's going to be some kind of jaw-dropping reveal somewhere around the very end of endgame.

Slender's motivations in a weird light. Just calling attention to that line. Considering this is Slendy we're talking about here that got me a laugh.

Well, think about the fact we've pretty much established some sort of cycle going on here...

EDIT: Hold a tic. I get the feeling we suggested this before, but if Slendy and HABIT are opposed to each other that might explain a good bit about this being a cycle. A cycle of HABIT corrupting/killing them and Slendy rebooting it all. Or something.
