The Slender Man SOMETHING HAPPENS AGAIN 19/04/10

I think it's entry 6, but it made me proper LOL. Amazing 8-)

Thank you Skarjo for putting it all into one thread. I'd opened up a few tabs and had them all lined up for later viewing. You've made it easier for me to watch it all

I love horror threads. Ghost stories, creepy stories, the unknown, it's all so much fun if you've got a good imagination and are willing to suspend belief just for a bit.

Exactly. It can pass as a human when it needs to...

***shivers***

There's something very "Dunwich Horror"y about it all.

'It was - well, it was mostly a kind of force that doesn't belong in our part of space; a kind of force that acts and grows and shapes itself by other laws than those of our sort of Nature. We have no business calling in such things from outside, and only very wicked people and very wicked cults ever try to. There was some of it in Wilbur Whateley himself - enough to make a devil and a precocious monster of him, and to make his passing out a pretty terrible sight. I'm going to burn his accursed diary, and if you men are wise you'll dynamite that altar-stone up there, and pull down all the rings of standing stones on the other hills. Things like that brought down the beings those Whateleys were so fond of - the beings they were going to let in tangibly to wipe out the human race and drag the earth off to some nameless place for some nameless purpose.

'But as to this thing we've just sent back - the Whateleys raised it for a terrible part in the doings that were to come. It grew fast and big from the same reason that Wilbur grew fast and big - but it beat him because it had a greater share of the outsideness in it. You needn't ask how Wilbur called it out of the air. He didn't call it out. It was his twin brother, but it looked more like the father than he did.'

Quite possibly! The whole set for Hill Valley has been recycled for other films and TV shows. I know that Ghost Whisperer is filmed on that set (don't ask how I know).

The Slender Man is nightmare fuel; A boogeyman that lives in the deepest recesses in the human unconcious mind. Whether it has taken form before now is largely irrelevant. Whether it WAS folklore or not... it is now.

Presumably the fear of it comes from the human mind looking at the shape and knowing that it's subtly, crucially wrong.

No, Sir!

It's Sunnydale :wub:

Anyway, all the naysayers, open your minds, let a spooky story fester in your imagination. I love a good horror yarn and it's almost just in time for Halloween! :twisted:

Every time you open a door in your house, or look out of the window at night, just imagine - he could be stood there, silent, towering....

Freaks me out if I imagine it too much!

Yeah I love it. Even though it is all made up, it was kind of awesome last night waking up at 3am and needing the loo but being a bit too scared to get out of bed!

Haven't felt like that since I watched the Texas Chainsaw Massacre whilst drunk one night! Just the though of cleaning my hands in the bathroom and looking in the mirror to see him stood behind me was enough to keep me in bed!

& something else

strawberry float sake. Awful, awful videos. Staged to high heaven. I've been watching the clips, and every single part of it screams out "LOOK AT HOW gooseberry fool I AM AT USING A CAMCORDER".

It all seems too staged for me to enjoy. I'm not even trying to analyse it, just trying to enjoy it, but it's too gooseberry fool to finish watching. I've used a camcorder before, and people don't react like that at all when filming. Stop to aim at swings in an awkward manner, then stop again to aim at something and quickly jerk the camera about to show you're scared :lol:

What the strawberry float is that staged gooseberry fool about? I tried to enjoy it, but really couldn't. Especially when I first saw the white bald man, who looked like a mannequin, and he was deliberately captured for a split second on the edge of the camera :lol:

Reminds me of this.

i don't get how the whole slender man wearing a suit came from, because it's not scary at all. The first image, the one in the park is fairly creepy because all you can kind of make out is a shadowy figure, and oddly long, thin arms also near some kids... but because it doesn't really give much away it's quite interesting. but i feel it has has been built up to much, now into this suit wearing, tentacle armed monster. even those videos aren't really scary once you see their slender man because the paper mache model they made looks stupid. plus as someone already mentioned, the over the top camera work, trying to be scary by waving it all over the place gets annoying after a while. i did like the audio tho as that was quite discomforting.

i think the concept still could be developed well for a film, but not some thin man in a suit because all i think of is this guy.

I remember being wide awake in bed half a year ago, rolling over onto my back and seeing a large tall shadow stood at the end of my bed. The shadow thing dissapeared the second I saw it. I posted a topic on here about it, a quick to GR sort of thing.

It was most likely just a normal shadow as I haven't seen it since but man did it look like a really tall human. :shifty:

He's already stalking you. :shock:
