Close your eyes and come back in time with me to the year 2011. You’re spending the night at a friend's house playing Beatles Rock Band, when an idea crosses his mind. “I saw some really creepy videos on YouTube, you guys wanna see?” says Josh. Reluctantly we come to the conclusion that since we are all in the same room for the night, it would be fun to try and freak ourselves out. And with that we dove down the YouTube rabbit hole, eventually landing on the king of all internet creatures, Slenderman. But how did this faceless being become the face of internet creepypasta? FIND OUT as we explore the story of the internet's greatest legend and the medium in which he grew. Creepypasta and the Weird World of Slenderman.

For years I had zero idea ALL of the music used in every single creepypasta video was made by the same guy. Huge shoutout to Myuu for the wave of nostalgia I got while editing.
