How does it hold up 8 years later?

Slender Man was a decent game that revived the horror video game genre. Horror was dying out at the time and we were instead getting action horror like RE5 and Dead Space. It's not very interesting now. But back in the day, it was revolutionary.

That's how they gitcha. First they start askin for tree fiddy. Then they want twenny.

There was something about early Slenderman that was actually legitimately creepy, plays on the childhood fear of strangers is the charm I think. The problem came when people tried to "explain" him and his proxies. The proxies themselves aren't a bad idea but when they became their own entities rather than an extension of good ol' slendy is when shit really hit the fan before going down hill until we got the real life attempted murder and the sony movie which butchered the entire mythos.

What's with "Sirenhead?"
Seems like a really stupid concept but apparently zoomers are into this thing where Slenderman fades out of existence

Alright, what's this dude's backstory

I don't get it either, it's just concept art of a mediocre silent hill monster but the artist put up a whole website to monetize its popularity

What is it in? What does it do? What is the lore? It has a fucking siren on its head, that's it.

A pretty good artist who designs weird horror-themed monsters designed a monster based on the idea that not a lot of people look up in the city, so a natural predator could pull some stickbug-type camo and look like a bunch of fucked up wires and sirens.
Some dude made a itch.io horror game using that fucked up Chicago siren test as the audio.
Lets Players played the game.
Now everyone and their mom is trying to cash in on it and make Siren Head some lovecraft eldritch horror fucker while completely missing the whole point of what was supposed to be spooky about it to begin with.

Pretty much the story of Slenderman as well hey?

Pretty much, yeah.

kek, imagine someone caring about a fuckin camera before a guy in tuxedo is going to rape you.

I don't get this. It's a dude with a siren for a head. It's more ridiculous than scary.

>that one “friend” who’d pester you nonstop about trying that one unity slenderman ripoff with [character] instead
>”ISN’T IT LIKE SUPER CREEPY I ALWAYS THOUGHT [character] WAS SECRETLY EVIL”
you know you had a friend like that, and if you didn’t then you may have been that friend

It's astounding how many people found a tall, white, athletic man in a suit to be terrifying.

>movie

>Change the story from a creepy figure with a fascination with children kidnapping them to a curse from watching a video on the dark web

Don't
