"slender man is a shit suggestion"

okay but let me tell you why thats bullshit

Slender Man is a consistent horror figure to represent modern day horror without being something ridiculous like Freddy Fazbear. His main cause of fame spawned back in 2012, but he's been around since as early as 2008, and I still hear about him consistently today. He's definitely worthy, as his name recognition is super high and he has plenty of material that can be referenced without having to dig into the obscure facts about him, and even still, considering he's had three seperate popular webseries that dig into his lore (everymanHYBRID, TribeTwelve and the most popular, Marble Hornets), many, many different canonical games to take from (Slender: The Eight Pages, Slender: The Arrival and that one clusterfuck of a game with fifty different story modes) he is undoubtably the best representitive for modern day horror, since his only challangers would be obscure characters like the Babadook or downright crazy characters like Five Nights at Freddys

Slender Man vs the Zodiac Killer is in no way a "shit suggestion." The connection is two faceless, nameless, brooding killers, one fictional, one real, neither of which are ever caught or properly identified, and for the strongest connection, both leave cryptic notes near the scene of their murders/abductions/crimes.

tldr stop saying characters are "bullshit" just because you don't like them
