And then there's that video on YouTube of a friend visiting Troy and Joseph's house, and they're showing him how to use stilts.

oh found it:

The sickness. So creepy. If you know that the Operator makes people sick and someone coughs it can fill you with horror. It has psychological side effects too, right? Didn't Jay forget to eat early on, and report that Alex looked thin when he saw him? The blood means that the sickness is actually killing them. Every time I read a tweet about Jay feeling ill I wince a little. And if someone doesn't know about slendersickness then that just makes it even worse. They'd get sick and paranoid and die without ever knowing why. Even without scary stalker faceless guy it's a terrifying thought. Everything about the sickness is creepy.

Or at our windows. Honestly, that's one of the scariest things about him -- he could stand on the ground and stare in through my second floor window, like, NO problem.

Most of the creepiest qualities have already been touched on, but I'd have to add that the way he moves in Entry 14 is absolutely terrifying. He manages to simultaneously be both predatory and nonchalant. Like somebody crossbred an Observer with a raptor (with a bit of squid thrown in, what with the creepy tentacle arm and all.)

I had my friend get started on watching this series two days ago, and yesterday I received a text from her that said, "I thought I saw Slenderman, and it was just a really long coat. I'M NOT PARANOID, WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT."

Apparently, she doesn't like how easy he is to mistake for everything but himself.

When I was an undergrad there was an amateur service where you could pay to "reap" someone. An actor (ie bored student) would dress up as death and follow your friend around all day, never saying a word, never explaining what they were doing, and the person being stalked had no idea what was going on. It was usually pulled as a birthday prank, and all their friends would "refuse" to believe the stalkee when they talked about being followed by death.

Substitute slendy for death. Let the mayhem commence!

Eh, the lack of a face isn't all that creepy to me anymore... I think it's just the fact that

From watching several series(but my fave being MH) it seems interesting that he seems to bring out the fear and negative emotions in people
