Slender Man.

alright guys i know this is completely irrelevant and has nothing to do with any of us, but i'm here to blog about an urban legend which is strongly believed to be true.

he's been in Germany, Netherland, America, and is even attacking Asian countries like Japan and Korea. and now i'm reading through the comments and someone mentioned having seen him in Singapore.

alright. so here we go. he's called the Slender Man.

let's start off with appearances. it's said that he has on a suit with a red tie, and apparently has no face. he has long arms and can grow up to 15 feet tall, thus the name.

he is said to stalk potential victims, and his following them can last as long as a few years or even decades. although he originally kidnapped only children, he's believed to have started targeting adults too.

it's mentioned that he kills his victims by pining them to a tree and letting them bleed to death. however later cases convinced investigators that he now kills them in a messier way; that the bodies would never be found because he just had to get rid of the mess.

people who disappeared are thought to have been taken by him after they mentioned having dreamt of him. that's how they theoried that he was the one who had taken the disappeared victims.

there are also symptoms of being a potential victim, apparently. nosebleeds, paranoia, and nausea. hmm.

it's also mentioned that if you dreamt of him as a child, you're probably gonna meet him again later in your life. he never leaves a victim alone forever.

there had been a few theories explaining his existence. some say it was because he was physically deformed as a child, and other kids kept making fun of him. so when he died, he had a vengeance to hurt those children.

the most dangerous thing about this legend is that he feeds on fear and belief. the more you believe in him and are scared of him, the more he exists.

wanna see the irritating part about it?

he takes you if you fear him.
you only fear him if you believe in him.
you believe in him because everyone else does.
everyone believes in him because they're all watching PewDiePie and other youtubers make it popular.
that's because they play the game which is based on him.

see that vicious cycle?

well, so yeah. many people have dreamt of him, apparently. maybe that's because they keep thinking of him before they go to sleep. because they watch youtubers like PewDiePie play the game and they go research on the myth which that game is based on.

do you get it?

well but in any case, i'm sure you have your own God to believe in. like i'd said before, i'm not a very religious so 1. ain't gonna say anything more than to just believe in your own God 2. i have a little fear in me for the Slender Man now.

plus 3. you all know i take my dreams seriously. i'm probably gonna dream about him tonight and i'm gonna freak the shit out if that happens.

you can go here for more info, which was what i did. this blog post is just a rewritten version of that page, in my own words and from what i understood. read the comments too, they're also pretty informative if you're interested.

and for the record, this is what started it.

i'd love to put in some pictures of the Slender Man [the type which he had gotten captured accidentally] but that would just further fuel the fear, i guess. so let's just put in some PewDiePie fanart.


oh, and there was also something about him appearing more to people who are frequently with cameras.

you can research on him more if you want  to, it's pretty interesting.
