Sleep paralysis happens to some more than others but, what do you do when you feel wide awake and unable to move and you see hunched
over you in the shadows an 8 to 10 foot tall entity with spider thin limbs, dressed in an old black suit? The entity has a pale face
and missing eyes, nose, ears, and mouth. You try and scream out. When you finally do get to yell out the thing evaporates. You just
had an encounter with what some call the slenderman.

What is the slenderman? What began on the internet has moved into other realms it seems. Is the slenderman a Tulpa? Is it a thought form or
elemental? Is the internet turning against us in a benevolent way?
