Slender man

sadly not a mega man boss this overcooked pile of rotten spaghetti in a bad three peace is more commonly known as the slenderman, face of all creapypastas and that alone should inform you about their quality or lack thereof.

origen
on a thread at something awful, the most aptly named website on the internet, they where discussing creepy photos, i.e. photos that they had lazily shoped, someone posted the most generic "creepy" creature: pale white skin with no face in a suit. Because they have no taste they all loved it and so he became stupid popular.

vidia
there's a video game that spawned 19 quadrillion rip offs, you look for drawings and don't get scared

movie
their is a movie released well after even redit stopped caring, surprise surprise, it's garbage

murders
like every over thing ever some wackjobs decided to use it as an exuse to kill people, not sure why people thought it had legs when there's no consistent lore with this fuck.

On the other hand this delayed the shitass movie so that's nice.
