The Slender Man Mythos

The other "thing" (I haven't named it yet) would only have power over the small town, and the only reason it isn't dead yet (town < USA/World for Slendy) is because of a curse left on the land by a genuinely famous witch known in my area, Grace Sherwood.

(look her up, she's quite interesting...)

I like the witch angle a lot. It adds a bit of a historical bent.

Also, you might want to connect the main piece of evidence her first jury convicted her by: Two small marks on her body.

What should I use that as..?

Also, I was going to have Slendy "help" the protagonists a bit, if only to kill the entity.

They want to kill it because it ACTIVELY murders children, which Slendy hasn't really been doing lately. I also will explore the possibility of more than one Slendy; possibly even NINE.

Well, I was thinking it could be two different marks, one of Slendy and one of the Entity, but that's your choice on how to interpret. Really, use or don't use whatever you think will make the blog better.

Do you know some areas that look spooky and abandoned? Those are great places for photo-shoots.

Also, I wouldn't mind a return to child-murdering Slenderman, but that's just me.

A little abandoned lot, with the name Owen's Park.

Thats my name. True story, bro.

Me and my friend are going to be filming the first videos for the series hopefully tomorrow....

Sweet. I hope they turn out well.

Don't expect anything freaky yet, but there will be things that may foreshadow shit...

Just so I make this clear, Slendy won't appear directly in this series.

His influence wil be offscreen...

Anyone read Reach's blog lately?

Redlight has Ava. Oh bloody hell.

Read it, I guess.

Most of the blogs are getting on my nerves, though.

Everyones too happy, dammit!!

Anyways, uploading video now.

There's no Slendy in the background, so don't bother.

I'm sorry it's so boring; it was all improv....

I will post maybe four more vids tomorrow.

I wonder if I'm overdoing it with the "expect some construction site pics soon" thing...?

So, after not posting for a week, I finally got a new idea for a storyline and a new Humanoid Abomination. Tell me what you guys think.

What's a Cold Boy?

Did you come up with it on your own?

Yeah, I made him up.

Thats friggin awesome.

People need to create more characters like him involved with the Mythos.

Mine I still haven't made a name up for yet, though....

who wants to help name him?

Can you describe him?

Yeah, I want to create other sorts of "memetic monsters" (I have to work that in) like the Slender Man, who feed on stories. The more people blog about them, the more influence they have.

looks kinda like this album cover

He only holds dominion over the small town.

Also!! Anyone know where to buy any wooden masks?

...this is probably a stupid question, but does he look like the masked, cloaked figures, or like the little girl?

His mask looks like a skull, so I'd start with that. Death, dying, skulls, vanitas, momento mori. Eventually I wiki walked to Ars moriendi - Moriendi Man sounds interesting. "The Dying Man."

...sounds like a goth superhero to me. >_<

"The Dying Man" sounds nice, but "Moriendi Man"? Yeah... no. It sounds kind of campy, and would translate as "Of Dying Man", which makes no sense.

Incidentally, cutewithoutthe, if you want, we can do a sort of crossover thing, with your entity being connected to the Archangel. Especially if you go with "Dying Man", since the Archangel is a being of death, and interacts with our world by enslaving the souls of the dead. Thus its minions tend to be serial killers— it helps it increase its army. This is meant to be a sort of counterpart to Slender Man enslaving living humans.

I don't know if I can do the mask...

anyone know where to get a mask like that?

I'd love to!

Is the Archangel killable?

"The Dying Man" (; is, as long as the mask isn't possesing anyone. That's where it's power is from.

@ noa: It's the masked guy! XD

I plan to recreate that pic, but it will be unrelated to my story.

The Archangel is about as killable as the Slender Man.

So... not very.
