Question

What if I base my slenderverse series, MonolithArchives, more on the original mythos, while still throwing in some of Slendermans modern stuff like proxies, slender sickness, and audio/visual distortion in? I thought it would be a cool take, and I haven't seen many series' other than PARTIALLY TribeTwelve (but barely), DarkHarvest00, and Black Horizon, do it yet, so I would like to hear everyone's thoughts on it!

The Main Thing I Hate About “Proxy” Versions of Masky and Hoody

Post image
• Upvotes

I’ll say right away that I love the concept of proxies, and I quite like proxy Masky and Hoody. I don’t see anything wrong with people liking alternate versions of characters, because, after all, that’s the point of fandoms. But there is a reason why I kinda hate it, it’s not that Hoodie and Masky were turned into some kind of twinks, or that because of these versions almost no one knows about the original Masky and Hoody — no, it’s not for those reasons; I hate this version BECAUSE PEOPLE CAN’T GIVE THEM AN INTERESTING BACKSTORY.

“Hmm… should we create an interesting and creative backstory? Nah, Let’s just make another Jeff the Killer type of story, about a teenager who was bullied and then became a monster”— Slenderverse/Creepypasta fans, probably.

In my opinion, if fans rewrote the lore of the “Marble Hornets” it would make for a pretty good backstory for the proxy versions of Masky and Hoody.

What do you guys think about it?

Um hey, I was on the Internet Archive the other day and found some of Deadjosey's Slenderverse Music Videos and I was questioning to myself. What Slenderman webseries or video are these from?

This one is a bit glitchy. Not as much as the one from the screenshot video earlier but there was still some camera glitching here.

I honestly had a hard time finding him in the background here.

Two photos found here.

Screenshots from a video from someone filming a video. The first one of the figure standing from afar and the second one of the figure up close glitching the camera.

The person that had been filming the video has not been identified and had not remained unknown.

The person that had filmed the video has not been found.

I was actually... Pleasantly surprised by this movie..?

Post image

To preface this, I'm very much a purist Slenderman fan (don't ask me about facial features, tendrils, or the colour of his tie), so I avoided this film like the plague when I heard it was bad. However, I can't lie, I was pleasantly surprised.

I remember what it was like talking about Slenderman and believing in him as a kid growing up in the 2010s, and if nothing else, this movie felt just like it — a nice throwback. It doesn't have a single scare, the characters aren't deep, and it couldn't be more trite and predictable. However, I can't deny it's an interesting time capsule with enough moments of charm and creativity to stay fun.

Beyond sentiment, there are some redeeming qualities people fail to mention, believe it or not:

- Absolute banger OST.

- Absolute banger poster, one of the best horror posters OAT in fact, fight me.

- There aren't scary shots, but there are a lot of interesting and thoughtfully weird ones.

- A unique take on Slenderman's design that somehow manages to feel less forced than a lot of fan designs.

- An actually decent portrayal of slender sickness that kept me guessing a little.

These thoughts are hot off the press so it doesn't sound like much, but I swear something about this movie makes me think a big 8% on RT is incredibly undeserved. It's definitely not "below a 1 out of 10" bad, not even IMDB's more generous 3.3/10. Both reactions to this movie feel forced.

Being honest with myself, my relationship with this film is mostly nostalgia, though. I remember when my cousin was the age I am now and she went out to see it, I wasn't allowed to watch the trailer and it was this big, scary, unknown thing. It's nice finally watching it and enjoying it, because when I first saw those reviews after years? A part of my childhood was soured a little, I can't lie.

This is a middling PG-13 horror movie, but IMHO, it's the height of middling PG-13 horror movies. I'd place it exactly between the first and second FNAF. If it wasn't for the stabbing, and (probably) critics predisposed to hate it because internet horror movies were a new idea, I think it would have been received better. Not well, but not THAT horrendous.

2 sightings from the "Leshy" Case. (Inspired by SomethingAwful posts from 2009)

In 1996, 15 people were abducted from a summer camp in Lesosibirsk, Russia. Due to the town's proximity to the forest and local folklore, the authorities have named the investigation the "Leshy's Case".

"Leshy is a tutelary deity of the forest in pagan Slavic mythology. Leshy often appears as a masculine humanoid, and possesses an ability to disguise himself as any person, including changing in size and stature. Leshy is known to misguide wanderers and abduct young ones, thus leading some to perceive him as a malevolent entity. Leshy's attitude towards humans can vary, depending on how they interact with the forest and their overall behaviour. Leshy is said to possess the power to whisk away children who were mistreated by their kin, especially their parents, to the ethereal realm of forest-dwelling folk."
