On June 11th, 2009, Victor Surge continued to improve upon the myth by adding another picture and a fake doctor’s account. [3] The following day, SA user LeechCode5 [4] posted a photograph of a burning building with a Slender Man back story. On June 14th, SA goon TrenchMaul [6] reused the Slender Man character for his own story. The original thread, which still remains active today, extends for 46 pages as of June 2011.
Slender Man became a well-known mythical creature on the /x/ (paranormal) 4chan board. [7] The earliest known mention of “Slender Man” on 4chan can be found in an archived thread dating back to June 24th, 2009, though the conversation suggests that it had been mentioned prior. The image was coupled with hand-drawn illustrations and fanart.
Outside of 4chan, Slender Man has caught the attention of several websites including the Unfiction Forums [8] , Fangoria [9] , Bungie, [10] Facepunch, [11] Wikibin, [12] /x/enopedia, [13] TVTropes, [14] Kongregate, [15] DeviantArt , [16] SlenderNation, [17] and Mythical Creatures Guide. [18]
