In childhood, everyone was afraid of some terrible monster who lived in a wardrobe, pantry, closet or under the bed, and always waited for the moment to grab the child and drag him somewhere to his monastery. It was about this monster in childhood that many tales and scary stories were heard. Time passes, a person grows up, and all his fears remain in childhood.
More recently, teenagers were captured by a new horror story - the story of Slender Man. Many now know that in most photographs taken in low light or against a background of trees, you can find this character.
Who is Slender and what does he look like
Few people know how the story of Slender appeared, but everyone who has ever heard of him knows what he looks like. Everyone says that this is a tall and very thin man, he has unrealistically long arms, which can also be extended. Sometimes Slender appears with tentacles around the body. There is no hair on his head, and his face does not have eyes, nose and mouth, it is simply white and smooth. Dressed Tall man in a strict funeral suit in black, a white shirt and a tie.
Sometimes a similar hero can be found, but of a slightly different look, but what remains always the same is that Slender is very tall and skinny.
Where does Slender live and how does he find his victims
Almost every Slender story tells that he lives in dark forests or abandoned buildings - there you can easily hide and hunt for his victims. As a rule, he attacks lonely people, but then their bodies are not found. Although there are references to the fact that several victims were found in the Steinman forest strung on trees.
Despite the lack of eyes and other organs, he easily finds his victims. Most often these are children who go far into the forest. This suggests that he has well-developed telepathic abilities. Slender feels when they think of him, and comes for these people. A few days before the abduction, he begins to visit his victims in dreams. One of the web series, which described the story of Slender, endowed the hero with the ability to manage a person’s memory, erasing and editing it, as well as turn people into puppets and manage them.
How the Skinny Man Appeared
The thin man was created in the summer of 2009 as part of one of the Something Awful forum contests. According to the terms of the competition, it was necessary to apply something paranormal to the ordinary real photographs, frightening with the help of a graphic editor. On June 10, 2009, one of the forum users posted 2 black-and-white photographs in which a fictional character chases children, and calls his character “Thin Man”. The creator noted that his character was completely invented, and for the photo montage materials in the form of photographs of men from the Internet and the image of the Tall Man from the painting “Fantasy”, which appeared on the screens in 1979, were used.

Some of the participants in the same competition noticed that the history of Slender’s origin has other roots, and they are associated with the mythical character Der Großmann. If you look deeper into history, you can find references to it as early as around 9000 BC. e., when drawings were left on the rocks in the cave of Serra da Capivara (the cave is located in a national park located in the north-eastern part of Brazil). These drawings depict a long creature that leads a child by the hand.
The story of the family and love of the Subtle man
The tall man was real. This is the story of the following Slender. And his girlfriend was involved in his death. Want to know how it was?
The guy was never popular at school, and eventually became an outcast. His mother raised him with all severity, although she was engaged in prostitution. She broke up with her husband (Slender's father) when the baby was not even a year old. Mother did not want to reckon with modernity. She forced Slender to go in a strict suit with a tie and a white shirt everywhere except at home. For some time the boy did not care what to walk in, but later he began to notice the ridicule and perplexity associated with his clothes from his peers, teachers and even ordinary passers-by on the street.
Moreover, not only the clothes made him unusual and strange. The guy heard some voices, and his body was covered with many moles, which sometimes came off with terrible pain. Over time, he got used to this pain and even learned to enjoy it.
The unusualness of many guy annoyed and aroused disgust and the desire to kill him. One of the girls who liked Slenderman very much talked about his desire not to see him again to his friend, and he decided to kill the guy so that he would never again appear in front of people.
A guy in a strict suit was trapped in the forest when he walked home and was brutally beaten. Later he was dragged into a closed stuffy room, where the girl caressed him, and her friends scoffed at him, breaking bones. At the end of the bullying, moles were cut off from the body along with the skin. The guy could not endure such torment and died.
After that, his ghost appeared.
Slender - reality or fiction?
It is very difficult to understand how and where this hero came from - there is no specific information about how the story of Slender appeared. But some people know for sure that it exists. Slender abducts children, and there are eyewitnesses who say they saw him shortly before the disappearance of the children. Parents notice that on the eve of disappearance, the child talked about an incomprehensible high thin creature that appeared to him in nightmares. Children's stories were considered nonsense and fabrications, but only until they disappeared.
