The Plan Itself

Hey guys, me again. So like I said in my last journal, I'm going to be using this as a means to write down my encounters of the Slender Man, something of a journal to chronicle my adventure...I hope.

So let's see, I guess the first thing would be to say what I have in my arsenal. Sadly, I'm in between jobs right now so money is real tight, but I still get paid for doing a few things for my neighbors. The best I can do right now is hope to use my little camera I managed to borrow from my mom, and if I can I'll try to figure out if this thing has video capabilities. If not, then most of the videos will likely be restricted to my Web cam, I hate to say.

Game plan, okay. I live in a little podunk down in the Midwest, and while I may not be surrounded by wildlife and nature itself, there are a few select places I can imagine tall, dark and gruesome likely being should the need be. There's an abandoned park somewhat down the ways that NO one goes to anymore that's adjacent to a small stretch of woods, so that may be my best bet. If and when I can get pictures up of what I'm talking about, I'll upload them.

In a way of defending myself, well I suck hard with guns and I can't use a knife for the life of me. However, my dad (I'm keeping this whole trek to myself and people who read my blog, I don't need my parents knowing I'm going after some tall demonic creature, they all ready think I need professional help as is) said that I could use his Mumbabat. What is a Mumbabat you may be asking? It's basically just a regular baseball bat that he wrapped up in black electric tape. It's hard, it's heavy and it swings fast, I think this may just be what I need.

Now I know what some of you may be wondering. "But Anthony, why would he focus on you?" Well my readers, I have a theory that Zeke all ready touched upon. If worse should come to worse, well, people do say that the Operator Symbol is a way of marking yourself....

I'm not going to go now, but I'm preparing for when I do. Listing off stuff like this really helps me think things through.

Oh, I hope this all turns out to be worth it...

Down to Business

Now I'm sure you people are wondering what I'm doing with this blog, yeah? Well, it's a long story, so let's start off from the top, eh?

Like I said in my last blog, I'm a massive fan of the paranormal, horror and the Slenderman, the latter of which I'm REALLY interested in. I didn’t think much of it when I first heard about it. I did some research on the subject matter when I found out about him, which is about, oh, I say about a year ago, and I gotta say, I loved what I saw, I didn’t think much of it. That changed when I started checking out the blogs.

I watched Marble Hornets, I read Seeking Truth, I read Just Another Fool, TribeTwelve, Dreams in Darkness, EverymanHYBRID, and I have to say, it was horrifying stuff even for someone like me, to find out something like Slenderman is capable of existing. It became like a demonic Where’s Waldo game for me. Which is weird, because when I see Slenderman and what he does...well, what does he do? He looks at you from the distance like the neighbor who glares at your when you play your music one decibel too loud.

The thing is, they've all encountered the damn thing and in turn, have lost someone. My heart goes out to those who have lost loved ones to this monster. But I'm not here to give my condolences to those who have been hurt by them, oh no. Unlike the others who are merely confused and cautious about the dreaded Blank Faced man coming for them, I'm doing something different.

I'm going to look for HIM.

That's right folks, you read that right. The Hunter is about to become the hunted. So come on folks, if you'd be more than willing to join me in my own journey, well I'd appreciate it. Bad idea or a good idea, I don't know, all I know is?

It's gonna be AWESOME.

Hmmm...Slender-Hunter...has a nice ring to it.

Where to Begin...

There! After...well, I'mma say half an hour of trying to get this thing up, it finally works! All the good names were taken...by people a lot more creative than me! Figures, eh?

Well, it's a fist blog...let's see, I don't want to explain what this blog is going to be totally centered about, so let me try starting this off on a more personal note.

To all of those who are interested (which I assume is none at first), my name is Anthony, and that's all the personal information you're going to get from me. However, I'll be kind and divulge a little bit of myself further in my tastes. I'm a internet dweller, so I see a lot of things that interest me. Ranging from the bullcrap ghost stories that seem to thrive on youtube, to the geniunely horrifying stuff that lurks on creepypasta. There are a few things that creep me out in the end, and over the course of a year, I've discovered something that really intrigued me.

Slender Man.

What does this have to do with this blog? Well, my friends, if you really want to find out and stick with it till the end, you'll find out in due time.

-Anthony.
