[color=deeppink]Even in Victor's original posts Slender Man killed adults. Mostly people who have taken his picture or were in the vicinity of his image or found his organ bags. And they have sprinkled in at least one aspect of the children thing: [spoiler]Entry 9.[/spoiler]
And of course, [spoiler]he may have killed people in the series anyway. There seems to be a lot of bloodstains everywhere, and it seems like Seth got his **** ruined.[/spoiler]
The aura they're playing up is definitely what drew me to the series. It plays on one of my deepest fears: the idea of being watched. Nothing freaks me out more than the idea of someone being near me without me knowing about it, and Slender Man has that in spades. I'm still rewatching vids and seeing him in places I didn't the first time. Ugh.
For example, Entry 7. It's one of, if not, the most predictable events in the series. [spoiler]Guy moves his head aside and Slender Man is there. I knew it was coming the entire video, but his entrance was so subtle: absolutely nothing anounced his presence. If it hadn't been a predictable plot element, I wouldn't have noticed him. He was just there. [i]Watching.[/i] That fact that he didn't do anything made it so much worse for some reason. [/spoiler]
For me, though, the crowning moment of terror comes in Entry 18. [spoiler]******* Masky. Oh god **** him. J is just wandering around the house, breathing heavily (and already causing me to freak out because I can tell that he's freaking out) and bam. There's some guy that I had never seen before. Sitting there. Watching. And then, suddenly, he charges. At 2 in the morning. : (
That was a perfect video. It's night, the house is narrow, claustrophobic, it's obvious somebody lives there but his presence is never felt, the sounds J makes, the quickness with which Masky charges so that you can't quite tell what he's doing, it all comes together to make sure I can't sleep at night.[/spoiler][/color]
