Summary

It's the dead of night; you are fast asleep. Suddenly, you are wide awake but unable to move. Hunched over you in the shadows is an eight- or nine-foot-tall gaunt entity with spider-thin limbs, dressed in an old-style black suit, its pale face missing eyes, nose, ears, and mouth. You finally manage to cry out. The monstrous thing disappears as suddenly as it appeared.

You just had a terrifying encounter with the Slenderman.

Who - or what - is the Slenderman? His existence began on the Internet, but he didn't stay online. The Slenderman may be a tulpa, a thought-form that can stride out of our darkest imaginations and into reality if enough people believe in it. In May 2014, two young Milwaukee girls almost killed a friend in the name of the Slenderman. Perhaps, like the vast Skynet system in the Terminator movies, the Internet is turning against us - and attacking us with digital equivalents of our own online nightmares.

The Slenderman has come to life. For the first time, this book reveals the full and fear-filled saga.

interesting but too matter of fact

Yes, this is a made up creature that only became known through the internet, and yes some kids are effected by it, but millions are not. Yes the are coincidences between events if you look for them, but again there are coincidences everywhere if you look for them. Lovecrafts monsters are of course mentioned. If you where to take any other of them, hype it on the net I believe the same occurances will happen. Google et al should be accountable

....err

This book starts from the theory that the Slenderman is real because of Western interpretation of Tulpas. It points to historical and folkloric accounts to back this up.
A more realistic approach would be that gaunt figures that steal away children are rooted in emaciated depictions of Death (grim reaper etc) that is common across much of the world because...you know...famines, illnesses and skeletons.
