Synopsis

It's the dead of night; you are fast asleep. Suddenly, you are wide awake but unable to move. Hunched over you in the shadows is an eight- or nine-foot-tall gaunt entity with spider-thin limbs, dressed in an old-style black suit, its pale face missing eyes, nose, ears, and mouth. You finally manage to cry out. The monstrous thing disappears as suddenly as it appeared.

You just had a terrifying encounter with the Slenderman.

Who—or what—is the Slenderman? His existence began on the Internet, but he didn't stay online. The Slenderman may be a tulpa, a thought-form that can stride out of our darkest imaginations and into reality if enough people believe in it. In May 2014, two young Milwaukee girls almost killed a friend in the name of the Slenderman. Perhaps, like the vast Skynet system in the Terminator movies, the Internet is turning against us—and attacking us with digital equivalents of our own online nightmares.

The Slenderman has come to life. For the first time, this book reveals the full and fear-filled saga.

Goodreads review by Woolrich13 on July 19, 2021

I'd purchased this as a heavily discounted item from a remaindered book distributor and still felt disgruntled. I'd picked this up with the hope of reading some folklore about the Slenderman and perhaps a bit about some of the crimes committed by those deluded souls who felt they were in contact wit......more

Goodreads review by Joey on May 29, 2018

In June 2009, two photo-shopped images of a “made up” entity dubbed “ the Slenderman” were uploaded to the Internet as part of a contest. The creator used as inspiration such well-known horror/paranormal tropes as the Men in Black (MIBs), the tentacled creatures of H.P. Lovecraft’s tales, and the Mo......more

Goodreads review by Eric on December 03, 2019

The Slenderman (or "Slender Man") began its life in June 2009, a creepypasta (derived from “copypasta,” itself derived from “cut and paste”) internet meme created by artist Eric Knudsen, initially submitted to a Photoshop contest on the horror website Something Awful. The meme went viral, inspiring......more

Goodreads review by Lena on March 30, 2022

Started off pretty interesting, but quickly became incredibly repetitive. I felt like I was listening to a high schooler trying to pad an essay with fluff to reach their word count.......more
