A little over a week ago we featured a game called Slender. We found it to be absolutely and completely terrifying. Just uttering it’s name seems to bring a chill to the air around you. Well the internet seems to be in love with this game and a small community of modders announced their plans to release an updated version of Slender, called Slender: Source. If you haven’t taken the time to play the original, give yourself a few minutes and download it from Parsec Productions. (UPDATE: The folks over at Parsec Productions are working on a new version of the game, with updated graphics called Slender: The Arrival.)
The new version based in the world of “The Slender Man” will include multiplayer. Now you and a small group of close friends can aimlessly stumble through the terrifying trees together. This new mode will focus heavily on cooperation and it will be very interesting to see how this is incorporated into such a personal experience. The players must also seek out creepy porcelain dolls because who doesn’t love a collection of dead-eyed dolls staring you down while you’re being chased through the woods by a man with tentacles for arms.
We have little information at this time, but the team working on the game plans on releasing updates frequently on their mod db page. Currently Slender: Source is scheduled for release in February or March of 2013.
The creepy just gets more creepy!
Just when you thought it was safe to go online….. dun dun delelelelele
So stoked for this, I haven’t been as terrified like I was in the woods since moving schools at ten.
It’s so simple, yet so creepy. It invokes fear at a very primitive level. I love it.
The pictures along kinda creep me the f out. The game must be amazing!
Yeah I thought those pictures were especially horrifying. It’s definitely worth checking out.
so it will be safe if we walked sticking backs to each other so we can cover all the direction but if we looked in the middle will slender will be there?!
that looks creepy i pissed my self twice playing the single player XD
My god….. no one thought to check in the center!!!! Yeah I’m pretty excited with the aspect of multiplayer. Usually MP just makes things less scary, but we shall see…. oh yes we shall see….
that’s y i turn around everytime,especially in the woods:one main road,dense forest,sometimes the creeps get so mad,that i start to get loud noises in my head which makes me run,making the illusions more scarier
I don’t want to play that game !!! After the scary maze, I don’t want to die of a ,…eh…, heart attack
Yeah there’s no doubt that Slender is insanely stressful. The horror…
Some one told me if I turned off my flashlight and backed up, he would not be able to find me… that I would get away. LIEZ!!!! Well, maybe it wasn’t lies, maybe I more or less was so busy screeching like an 8 year old that I didn’t realize I kept walking forward instead of backward…
There’s no hiding from the Slender Man….. I think the safest bet is to just hid in a corner facing a wall, that way you never have to look at him. Because if you can’t see him he doesn’t exist right?…
….he doesn’t exist in the real life acutally,he is in ur mind,waiting for u to get scared of him,just delete ur memories about that and u’ll be ok
Durrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! Yeah I definitely did.
Haven’t played this game personally, but seen a few youtubers play it, and it’s terrifying! Not a bad little indie project. Has anyone managed to finish it!?
Yeah it’s pretty creepy. The rumor is you can’t finish or the Slender man will appear behind you when you close the game… dun dun delelelelele….
Love this post! I am absolutely obsessed with Slenderman!
If your man loves MarbleHornets, YOU are a trollmate ;D
Thanks! The whole slenderman phenomenon is still going strong years after the youtube hits. It’s such a simple and creepy story.
I totally agree! MarbleHornets fans are incredibly patient and dedicated! I know a lot of people have been sort of angry about the blow-up of Slenderman in internet culture right now because of Slender, but personally I think it’s cool to see people get involved in the madness! There are a lot of SlenderPurists out there though, who are taking the old hipster “I liked that before it was cool” stance. hahaha
Hipsters, Nooooooo! Everybody liked something before it was cool, why can’t the hipsters just leave it alone. Im excited that Slender man is blowing up, there is talks of a movie being made. I think that could turn out really we’ll.
A movie?! Really?! That’s awesome! I would be totally down, that could be some scary stuff!
I’m actually in the process of drafting a post about Slenderman, sort of a spotlight on the fandom in general. It’s becoming so big that I feel like everybody should be exposed, especially as MarbleHornets is heating up again!
I’m just here for the women… ladies…
Smooth Operator.
The Slenderman post is up! Go to http://agirlsguidetoagamerguy.wordpress.com/2012/10/19/the-lowdown-1-slenderman/ to read it!
I talk about the game and the entity itself.
Again, great blog post
I cannot wait for the multiplayer!
The Multiplayer sounds really fun!
Heard of this but have not played. Love to try the multi-player.
Did an interview with Austin Handle who is working on another Slender game called “the Legend,” and works pretty closely with these guys. Pretty stoked.
I will have to look a little more into that one. I haven’t heard anything about it. I’m really excited for Slender: The Arrival though.
Reblogged this on digger666.
Is this (Slender-man) real? or a myth?
Have you seen the videos on youtube to slender-man?

It’s one of those “creepy Pastas” on the internet. It’s basically an internet urban legend. He’s the blair witch project of this generation.
Or, it could be an (Anonymous) prank…like you said: an urban internet legend.:)
The internet truly is a terrible, terrible place.
The internet is nothing but just a made up book. People want to soak up invalid information on what’s (NOT) real at all.
Oh yes, but that is the beauty of the internet. Any lame ass such as myself can openly spread his filth to millions of people. It’s got Spider-Man syndrome. A gift and a curse.
hahahahaha!!! Exactly.

Friend likes Slenderman we should be frieeeeeeeeends.
Slenderman is quite an interesting fellow.
People thought I was Slenderman at Anime Banzi but in reality I was 友達 Tomodachi from 20th Century Boys can you believe that?
i”m going to forward this to my sons and grandson who love gaming;)
If they are looking for a scary good time, I would highly recommend it.
I love that scary road with the trees
So simple and so creepy. Super excited for The Arrival!
