WOAH A TALL GUY IN A SUIT WITH NO FACE

THAT'S OBVIOUSLY SLENDERMAN BECAUSE NOBODY HAS EVER THOUGHT OF A SIMILAR CHARACTER BEFORE

Can we just let this thread die already?

Well, if we are talking about vaguely Slender-Man sounding experiences, I've got one from quite a few years back.

I was at a debate camp, and swore I saw something in the trees. Always a person, no face, formal attire. Usually had two other dark, shifting masses near by that would sneak close to my window, and then retreat just as they got out of sight. I saw it for three nights before I finally went out-back where they were and cursed whatever was hiding there out as the the light started to die. Looking back, it was not the wisest decision I ever made

I didn't see anything like that ever again, not that night, not ever. But when I started watching Marble Hornets thanks to The Escapist community, I noted how oddly similar the character looked. And when I read Just Another Fool, well...yeah. But, provided ol' Slendy even is real, he can't get ya if you don't think he is, so I'm going to quietly keep convincing myself that it's a dude in a suit in some of the most entertaining fiction I've ever had the pleasure of reading/watching.

Well, if we're telling ghost stories, I got one:

I had really bad sleeping problems when I was a kid. Every shadow seemed like a person, every noise or creep sounded like someone walking. And one time when I was six, and I was going through my usual routine of hiding under the covers and occasionally glancing out for air and to see if anyone was actually there, I could've swore I felt a hand grab at me from the covers.

Out of terror I kept the covers over my head, because I had this belief that if you couldn't see them, they couldn't see you. Morning eventually came, and to this day I never knew if it was my dad coming to check on me or if I had imagined it or not. I never brought it up with my folks, they never said anything about coming in to check on me, and life went on.

I'm twenty-one now, and yet I still remember that night even when I can't remember what I had for breakfast some days. I was one fucking paranoid child.


There. Ghost story told. Slender Man sighting-wise, never seen him. Like I've said elsewhere on this thread, I'm always weary when "Gimme 20 Dollahs" comes on in the bar that I work in, I scan the area to see if anyone in a suit has shown up, but so far I have not. Watching Marble Hornets for the first time, Slender Man seemed familiar to me, but I think it was just because he was always that faceless silent unseen terror that made me paranoid to sleep as a child and finally got an identity attached to him.

So thanks for that, Troy...you fucking asshole

You can't link to an image on your own computer... seeing as the rest of us don't happen to be using your computer.

Except probably Slender Man he gets really bored just following people around from time to time he has to have some hobbies just don't ask what they are.
