What is the Slenderman stabbing and its significance?
welcome back to creepcast today we're doing something a little new a little uh something that we've been wanting to try for a bit which is Talk about something that pertains to creepypasta that is something very real and very horrifying in real life, but it does connect to the thing that we've covered before, which we are coming up now on the anniversary of the Slenderman stabbing, which is a very, very real thing, and it's a fascinating story, and we have... formatted it in a way to where now it's a digestible story to be ingested the same way as a creepy as a creepcast episode but done in a way where we can you know shed light on something that's uh very real and horrifying yes
I would agree. So yeah, the Slender Man stabbings were on May 31st of 2014. As I'm sure a lot of you know, a very tragic circumstance where a couple young girls became far too invested in internet culture around creepypastas, specifically Slender Man, and became obsessed with the idea that Slender Man was real and they could dedicate themselves as like a a proxy to him. Uh, and they took out those fantasies on a friend of theirs who we'll get into, but thankfully survived. Um, but it's a very, it's a very, uh, upsetting story. It's a very wild one. Um, especially some of the details of how the young girl survived are, uh, both terrifying and impressive.
So we want to say, yeah, the survivor is, has to be one of the biggest badasses of all time.
Yeah. Her, the we'll, we'll get into it, but the way she lived was pretty, uh, outstanding. Um, I would have died.
once again for people who might not have seen some of the previous episodes that we've done we did a creep tv which was on our show is basically horror adjacent video content in like horror storytelling content in video form that we like to talk about and one that isaiah showed me that uh was a three-part video series Was the... Marble Hornets. Marble Hornets. Marble Hornets. Oh, my God. I said Mandela Catalog. Not Mandela Catalog. Yeah. The three-part series that we covered was Marble Hornets from years ago. I mean, actually, let me ask you this. Was Marble Hornets was before these, correct? Because it was pretty... It was pretty... it was pretty close to the original posting of the picture or, you know, of, of the kind of like fan, the start of the fandom with the, uh, first upload of the Slender Man image, right?
So the, the original Slender Man image was uploaded. And then a week after that, I believe the first marble Hornets video was posted. So marble Hornets, uh, second to the original image was the first Slender Man adaptation. First thing to give it a narrative. So yes, these came way after that.
To think that the thing that we watched, which, granted, Isaiah, completely different time, right? But to think that the thing that we watched may have helped inspire this act or just, like, the phenomenon that was Slender Man, which it's not... It's obviously... The crimes that were committed were in act. They say that it was in service to Slenderman and stuff. But I feel like it could have been anything that just struck their fancy.
It may have contributed to it... In like the sense that it popularized Slender Man and that led to this. But as I'm sure we'll talk about, their obsession with Slender Man had a lot to do with like the fandom side of things. With the idea that people can be like servants of him and that there's... I think they talked a lot about the Slender Man mansion, which was kind of like the equivalent of... like an oc character thing where like slender man takes his followers to a mansion where they all live together and stuff like that it was very like fandom coded um you know people making their ocs and like making them interact with characters they like sort of thing
The same kind of community that would do Jane the Killer or Jeff the Killer offshoots. People absorbing media in different ways and basically having that cult-like mentality around them is very, very fascinating. So today, bear with us. We're going to do something new.
