Wicked Wednesday Presents Urban Legends: Slenderman

He’s tall. He’s faceless. He lurks in the woods, on playgrounds, and in the corners of blurry photographs. Slenderman isn’t just another urban legend—he’s the internet’s first viral monster.

In this episode, Amber and Gina uncover the eerie origins of Slenderman. From his 2009 birth on the Something Awful forums to his rapid spread across creepypasta sites, YouTube series like Marble Hornets, and viral games like Slender: The Eight Pages, Slenderman became the perfect modern boogeyman.

But the story didn’t stay online. In 2014, two 12-year-old girls in Wisconsin lured their friend into the woods and stabbed her 19 times, claiming they did it to appease Slenderman. The victim survived, but the case shocked the world and forced everyone to reckon with the power of online folklore.
