Slender Man

I will not be posting tomorrow (that I know of) and I will be bringing you the creepiest legend out there. Slender Man! I think he is the scariest, creepiest legend/monster that you could dress up as. The history of Slender Man does not go back very far (2009) and already truly despicable things have been done in his name. The worst being the devil but since the devil has been so commercialized Slender Man comes to the top of the list. Now I know he isn't a legend but due to what people have done in his name I know he will become one of the new legends to tell around a camp fire.

Slender Man started on a COMEDY web forum. Yes comedy.

What Wikipedia had to say about Slender Man: The Slender Man (also known as Slenderman) is a fictional supernatural character that originated as an Internet meme created by Something Awful forums user Eric Knudsen (a.k.a. "Victor Surge") in 2009. It is depicted as resembling a thin, unnaturally tall man with a blank and usually featureless face, wearing a black suit.

Stories of the Slender Man commonly feature him stalking, abducting or traumatizing people, particularly children.[1] The Slender Man is not confined to a single narrative, but appears in many disparate works of fiction, mostly composed online.[2] Fiction relating to the Slender Man encompasses many media, including literature, art and video series such as Marble Hornets. Outside of online fiction, the Slender Man has had impact on popular culture, having been referenced in the video game Minecraft and generated video games of his own, such as Slender: The Eight Pages and Slender: The Arrival.

You can go to the Slender Man Wikipedia page to read more on Slender Man.

I went looking for the original Slender Man story and came across this: The complete, terrifying history of Slender Man

I remember hearing on the news about the two girls stabbing their friend because 'We wanted to prove the skeptics wrong.' Once again making me wonder about my theory (yes it is in Supernatural) that if you believe in something enough you could bring it to life. The theory is valid not completely logical but valid. Now for a Slender Man makeup tutorial!

It was a big toss up about which Slender Man tutorial I liked the most. It came down to Pinkstylist's and Silvia Quiros. Silvia Quiros won. I love both tutorials but I think that Silvia's version of Slender Man is scarier.


FYI My computer was glitching the entire time I was researching Slender Man.

Have A Happy Halloween!
