Slender Man Game: The Review and The Horror
24th August
Phew, let me just take a minute to catch my breath and regain my senses. OK, that’s better. Let me explain.
I’m sure by now you have all heard of the legend of Slender man, the tall faceless abductor of children and nightmare to many. Slender man was created back in 2007 by Victor Surge for a paranormal creature contest for Somethingawful.com. Since then, Slender man has circulated over the internet having people actually debating on his existence even though he was supposedly a creation of man.

There are very few games that can make me jump and yell in terror while I am playing.

Horror video games have been around on consoles since the Atari with titles such as Beast Busters back in 1989. Through time they have changed drastically. There have been very successful titles such as Resident Evil, F.E.A.R., and Dead Space. More recently publisher Deep Silver released Dead Island which had one of the best trailers for a video game I had ever seen. This was the first game in a long while that was centered around zombies.
