r/Slender_Man

As a young artist with a creative mind —with no intention of offending anyone, and coming from the Hispanic community— I wanted to artistically 'redo' the designs and backstories of a few Creepypastas while still keeping that original vibe.

It’s cool how some creators manage to make certain characters look attractive or even 'sexy' by community standards, but let’s be real: if someone is literally drenched in gasoline and set on fire, they aren't going to end up with flawless white skin and pitch-black hair.

To start off, at least on the main Spanish-language Creepypasta channels a few years back, Slender was often portrayed as a teenager...

So I want to find out what closest aligns with Slender's actual origins. In fact, a few days ago when I started this personal project, I stumbled across a thread on Reddit linking to a website from the 2000's where the very first photos of Slender were posted, complete with their original captions.

The problem is, I forgot to bookmark it, and now I can't seem to find it anywhere...Could anyone help me out, please? Only if it's no trouble at all

ive been recommended this series and all i see is SLENDER MAN with a new name
WHERE TF ARE THE MARBLES
(this is a joke btw)

Hello everyone! My name is Chris, I’m 21 years-old and as mentioned in the title, I am working on a project inspired by Slenderman. Before I go on about the details of the actual story, I’d like to give some context to give you all a better understanding of how this project came to be. If you just want to skip to the main details, you can scroll at the bottom where it says “DETAILS,” but it would be greatly appreciated if you read the whole thing.

(1/1) Back in 2018, I wrote a short horror story for my English class back in 2018 and it sucked to say the least. It lacked a clear structure, strong characters, good pacing, basically everything that makes for a good story, but what it didn’t lack was passion, which was something that would fuel me to this day. Fast forward to 2021, 16 year-old me decided to continue that short horror story and turn it into a full novel. I spent countless days studying the art and science of literature by watching horror movies, YouTube tutorials, video essays, and reading short stories online. After months of brainstorming and procrastination, I eventually began writing my first draft of the novel and for after a long while, I got about 5 chapters into the story; I even posted chapter one right here in this subreddit 3 years ago which got 3.6k views! Unfortunately, this would be no where as I would continuously put the novel on hold to focus more on outside factors like school work, and life in general while writing down some new ideas every now and then. This back-and-forth went on for 5 years, not because of a lack of passion, but rather a fear of pursuing what I truly wanted to do, which was film. I believed that without the proper funding, I would never be able to make this into a limited series and capture my true vision. Since then, I have become much more knowledgeable in the work that goes into filmmaking, have gotten objectively better at judging said work and with the support of my friends, I decided it was time to drop the book and start working on a screenplay.

DETAILS:

With that being said, I am excited to announce that I am working on a YouTube series called Follows and it goes as such: After a shocking revelation, friends Elijah and Daniela go on an investigation to try and uncover the truth behind the disappearances surrounding their childhood park. The two struggle to carry the weight of the truth as they learn more about their town, realizing there is something far more sinister at play. And that is the official synopsis!

The series is still in the early stages of pre-production so the a lot of details are to be determined and are subject to change, but I do have plenty of details I can share with you all: The series will alternate between perspectives as we follow Elijah and Daniela’s separate journeys to uncovering the mysteries surrounding the supernatural that exists within their fictional hometown of Hornets, Virginia. The story will have psychological horror and drama elements inspired by movies and shows such as The Babadook, Hereditary, and The Haunting of Hill House, and other Slender mythos such as Marble Hornets and Slender: The Arrival. My goal is to write a compelling horror-drama that can please horror fans, especially those who grew up on with creepypastas like I did and with the success of Backrooms and the domino-effect that created with other creepypasta-inspired projects being green-lit, now is the perfect time to work on this show and hopefully release it to the world by summer of next year at the very least.

I love taking about this project and am very excited to get this out to the world, so please share this with friends and family and tell me your thoughts, questions and suggestions so far. Anything helps!

Every archive forum or website i find that offers the mac version only gives me the windows version or a blank file. Does anyone have the 8 pages mac download they can send me?

Hoy se cumplen 8 años del estreno de Slenderman (2018), y me dio curiosidad saber qué piensa la gente de esta película actualmente.

Sé que tiene una reputación bastante mala, pero después de volver a verla varias veces, siento que tuvo muchísimo potencial desperdiciado.

En mi opinión, sus principales problemas fueron el guion débil y desordenado, el poco protagonismo de Slenderman, la edición, la iluminación y todas las escenas que aparentemente fueron eliminadas o modificadas durante la producción. PERO LO.QUE MAS ME CABREA A MI ES LO MUCHO QUE CENSURARON LA PELICULA.

Pero tampoco creo que absolutamente todo sea malo. Personalmente, me gustan bastante el diseño de Slenderman, la atmósfera, la banda sonora, la actuación de Joey King como Wren y especialmente la escena de la biblioteca.

Así que tengo curiosidad:

¿Qué opinan ustedes de la película después de 8 años?

¿Su opinión ha cambiado desde que la vieron por primera vez?

¿Qué creen que hizo bien la película?

¿Qué creen que hizo mal?

¿Creen que desperdició el potencial de Slenderman?

¿Qué opinan de las escenas eliminadas?

¿Creen que Slenderman merece una segunda oportunidad en el cine?

Personalmente, creo que el personaje tiene muchísimo potencial para una película de terror psicológico bien hecha.
