not to take away from or debunk your idea in any way, but how great of an affect would that really have in the series? is it just a preference thing, like wanting to see slenderman presented in a different manner? I'm legitimately curious about this. I've seen hatted slendy requested several times before (not necessarily in this thread) and i find it interesting that such a seemingly minimal detail could bring about such intrigue.


I suppose that the best way to put is that it changes the character. I'm not sure how it does, but it does.

Plus, again, I don't think that any series use a Slendy with a hat.

 		I remember this Japanese folklore creature called a noppera-bo: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noppera-b%C5%8D.

It'll be interesting if there could be some oriental elements added to the mythos somehow.

i get that. I suppose seeing the same faceless being in video after video can take away from the impact that it has, changing things up, even in the slightest, would add something new to it, help throw in some variation

 		I saw a couple pages back someone mentioned the similarity of the Operator Symbol with the Zodiac Killer's symbol. That's one connection I wonder how it's never been done in a series before. I actually had the idea some time ago and thought it'd be interesting, but there was no way to fit it into my story that would make sense.

An idea I got from something else someone said earlier, , is having Slendy affect electronics, not just the camera. Have the protagonist watching TV and the picture gets jacked up or surfing the net and their computer starts acting strangely. Not entirely sure exactly what kind of effect would work with this.

I'll also cast my vote for more hatted Slender Man, just because hey, why not?

I know there's one series that actually has the Zodiac Killer as a villain. I can't remember which one, but I it has a thread somewhere. Also, (sorry to self-plug, but I can't resist.) My series had Slender Man messing up an iPod. He has also worn a hat on several occasions.

That's more like it! I just wish more people used it.


It is an awesome effect and well done in Tulpa, but if you get what you ask for here, it will become as overly-used as the film clipping and over-contrasting. Anything good will be beaten to death. I personally don't care. That's the genre. But remember the rustled jimmies that arose when people initially began putting tutorials out?

That series that uses the Zodiac Killer is called MyDadsTapes. Creepy stuff there. shivers

Also, your series is one of my favorite series.

I'd look up your series, but... I have no clue what it is. Is there some kind of list of everyone's series?

If you're talking about the Zodiac, you probably mean http://www.youtube.com/user/SAParanormalHunters
I've been trying to not dominate this thread, which keeps seeming to be requesting things that ALREADY exist, just in series that are largely in obscurity...
BUT EFF IT. I'LL ANSWER ALL YO PRAYERS with my weird suggestions.

 		Once I get done with my own ARG, I'd love to start working on a Slendy-one if someone wants to help write it-- I tend to work with my own monsters, so I'm a bit wary to work on SM. Hire some actors, invest in a decent suit/stilts. I'd love to see some more quality vlogs- not just writing, but actual film/acting. I'd also love to see a break from the norm- in both writing and media. An actual SM ARG. *cough*likeCRUX-Crucible*cough* Phone calls, interactivity. A return to the basics while also bringing new things to the table.

So pretty much what everyone's already said 100s of times. XD

Totally going to make a SM ARG once I get done with my own though...

 		I realized something I'd also like to see are people with super powers like in the game inFamous. Call me weird, but I'd like to see a series which is less horror and more sci fi action.
Also, more shootouts. Dark Harvest pulled it off spectacularly in their latest video, but it just doesn't happen that much. Of course, we wouldn't want it to happen too much. Quality over quantity.
