That all?

I'm kinda disappointed that there isn't enough stuff on the rake. I find him/it to be more scary than Mr. Tall and Faceless

the rake is definitely more malevolent than slender man. or atleast from what we've seen from slender man.

Agreed, I'm kind of hoping there will be a vlog that focuses on the Rake than Slendy (:
Slendy has his fun, now let's see what this creature can do.

I know. There is a whole new idea out there for people to work on. I would love whoever would make a series from this.

Quite simple. Another creepypasta creature. Never had anything to do with the Slender Man originally, though he WAS a major influence on The Slender Man's original story. ENTIRELY unrelated.

EMH introduced him into their story, and he's since been tied in with the Slender Man, but he doesn't originally have anything to do with the Slender Man.

Wasn't that photo also used in a claim on Super 8, as well? (That movie would have been so much better with the Rake.)

No shit it's a faked picture. Next you'll tell me that Slender Man isn't real. Confused

Honestly, as much as I like the idea behind the Rake, I really wish it was Tribe Twelve that had it instead of EverymanHYBRID. EMH is a great series, but the effects are pretty bad even by Slender Man standards. They've shown the Rake on-screen twice that I can think of and he's looked like a dude in a white bodysuit both times. :/

One question I've always had (since I don't follow EMH as closely as I'd like to): how did people even figure out that that is the Rake? It barely resembles what it's supposed to be and nothing about it really sticks out as necessarily being that myth compared to any other random myth about a murderous animal (or even an original creature). I'm not denying that it's the Rake, just asking how people figured that out...

Well, I think the Rake and Slender Man were created by the same people (at least, I think that's the case. I'm not very well versed in creepypasta history). In any case, the effects aren't all that bad. It's not too much of a stretch to look at the EMH Rake and see The Rake. Plus, there's all of those allusions to the original story (the note to Linnie).

To bring this topic back to life, I just found Vicious516's awesome creepypasta video on The Rake. Definitely some scary stuff, as are all of his videos.

^That's some real creepy stuff right there. It's simple yet effective. It's too bad the Rake is so underutilized. Even in EverymanHYBRID he is more of an attack dog than an abomination like the original creepypasta.

I wouldn't really call it creepy, just informative, but it gave a good background story as to who the Rake is, how he operates, and how he acts. Really awesome. This is exactly why The Rake deserves it's own vlog.

Perhaps The Rake is the puppet master and Slenderman is the attack dog.
