The Making Of The Slenderman Legend

Slender Man has been critically examined by scholars as the subject of modern folklore, as in Shira Chess’s and Eric Newsom’s book Folklore, Horror Stories, and The Slender Man: The Development of an Internet Mythology, in which they connect Slender Man to traditional folklore in terms of the collectivity, variability, and performance behind its creation. On metacritic, the movie would sit at a low 30. The audience score started at a 2.9, and would fall to 2.5 by December 9th, dropping even lower in 2019 to 2.2. [5]

The film generated considerable controversy soon after it was announced, with many accusing the filmmakers of trying to capitalize off the Waukesha stabbing. [47] Bill Weier, the father of Anissa Weier, stated, "It's absurd they want to make a movie like this... All we're doing is extending the pain all three of these families have gone through." [47] The progressive advocacy group Care2 created an online petition, which received over 19,000 signatures, demanding that the film not be released, labelling the film "crass commercialism at its worst" and "a naked cash grab built on the exploitation of a deeply traumatic event and the people who lived it." [47] Sony representatives insisted that the film was based on the fictional character that had become popular online and not on the Waukesha stabbing. [47] Historians are unsure of the exact symbolic nature of the character, with some claiming that it is a personification of the religious wars that raged in Europe at the time, while others say it represents the mysterious plagues that have been believed to be the reason for the mysterious abandoning of the Hastlberg Castle and the nearby village in 1543.

Inside The Slender Man Stabbing

Additionally, a forum resembling our Theories and Speculation board appears. But instead, it is titled "Suppositions and Theories". One of the two teenage girls who stabbed their 12-year-old friend because they were possessed by the fictional Slender Man character told her: 'Don't be afraid, I'm only a little kitty cat,' before abandoning her in the woods. The Slender Man’s stalking behavior is remarkably passive. He torments an individual by repeatedly appearing and vanishing – usually without harming the victim in any physical way. He invades the mental safety of his prey by appearing inside their house, outside their home, on roads they travel, at their place of work when they are alone or ensuring only the victim can see him, or while the target is sleeping. The sporadic and unexpected nature of these manifestations causes fear and unease, which eventually can grow into incredible paranoia. This period of stalking can last anywhere from several minutes to decades. The longer Slender Man stalks a victim, the greater strain on their mental health, which may be one of his goals. On June 20, 2009, just 10 days after Knudsen’s posts, the YouTube channel Marble Hornets premiered. The channel featured a Blair Witch Project-style found footage series about a film student being stalked by a figure known as “The Operator” — which appeared to have been inspired by Slender Man.
