Slender Man

Picture a bald, pretty tall, skinny white man in a suit. Not too intimidating, right? Okay, now make him into a faceless, taller then Yao Ming monstrosity that stalks people into madness and this is pretty much what we're dealing with here.

• What is that thing?!

Slender Man is perhaps the scariest thing the Internet has ever produced and the Internet is responsible for Meat Spin (I am not giving you a link, goddamn you).

He is a creature of sheer fear.  An abnormally tall, skinny humanoid in a suit, with no face to speak of. What's more, he theoretically has the power to either stretch his limbs, utilize shadowy tendrils which can emerge from him, have multiple limbs or all three, it's not clear. Anyone who would really know is either insane or gone or both. It's not really clear.

Other than his appearance, not much is really known to be certain. We think he likes to hide among trees and has a preference to prey on children. What he does with his "victims" it is pretty unclear. Lots of times they just disappear and not even the most relentless hackers of /b/ can track them down. Some stories indicate they turn up on a tree branches like kebabs or in other cases, "hollowed out."

So if you have kids, maybe you'll set up a security camera right in their room, right? Keep them and their organs safe? Well see Slender Man has also been known to fuck technology up, particularly any sort of recording device. The picture suddenly becomes static, the audio is missing, your organs have gone missing. How he does it, we don't know. Why he does it, we can only guess. He probably just likes fucking with his audience, make things only more confusing.

So you'll be watching your kids on the nanny cam then all of the sudden shit starts jumping about, visual tearing happens, you see a glimpse of this tall man in a suit and boom, kids are gone.

We have no idea where he comes from, or why he does this, or how he does all of this. He is a living avatar of mankind's fear of the unknown.

AND HE IS MADE UP BY PEOPLE ON THE INTERNET.
