He wears a black or gray suit, with a snappy red or black bowtie, and a plain white shirt that fits over his extra long arms. You would also know him for his lack of a face. This mythical creature is “reported” as ranging from six to sixteen feet tall. This being began as an Internet rumor and grew from there. Slenderman doesn’t have a generations-old backlog of sightings and stories. Chant: “Slenderman, Slenderman all the children try to run, Slenderman, Slenderman, to him it’s part of the fun, Slenderman, Slenderman, dressed in dark his suit and tie, Slenderman, Slenderman, you most certainly will die.” Or, save the creepy trip to the woods, and download Slender: the Eight Pages first-person survival horror game instead.

Lay your face against the tree with your eyes closed. They say you can summon a Slenderman in real life by heading to the woods at night, carving a circle in a tree, and placing an “x” through it. Paradoxical, and a little frustrating – especially if you are keen to get a glimpse of what you're meant to be running away from.Don’t give in to your fear in this first-person survival horror game. There is a strange paradox in that the only way to stop the relentless onslaught of the Slender Man is to look at him, but if you look at him for too long you will die. The sense of threat and anticipation is built upon through the clever use of soundscapes. While there is an element of fear to the game, the sense of challenge is diminished by the fact that there is only one enemy to avoid – and the original Slender Man stories are far more terrifying than anything game manages to conjure up. There are effectively eight levels to work through and there is no real variety in what you need to do - the difficulty level just increases. Yes, there is the element of suspense to make things a little more interesting, but at its heart, this is an incredibly simple game with very limited gameplay. Unfortunately, to cut to the chase, it's a bit boring.
