A bit of a thought. · 6:01am Sep 24th, 2012
With all the Slenderman stuff popping up all over the web in recent months I decided to form a hypothesis on said creature.
This theory being that it isn't some sort of Aldrich horror but is in fact the grim reaper. The reason behind said theory? Whoever physically meets it dies. But, what if this isn't the case? What if they weren't still alive to begin with? They're souls were just so strong and they were to attached to this world to move on. And so he came. The faceless angel of death in his dapper suit. I honestly believe another element may be an influence. Radio waves. They say that radio waves disrupt the spirits of the dead and the fact that everyone has a phone giving off radio waves? If said person was to die and the radio waves solidified their soul in their body so it didn't feel dead. Would they even notice? He would. And so he came to them. To take them away, his game a chance to return to life.
A sick game played by the reaper of souls. Death's Dapper Messenger The Slenderman.
Seems legit.
You should write a Slender Mane oneshot.

I'm sure the reason everyone who crosses his path dies is because he kills every single one of them.
But your death thing could work... Kinda like mix a faceless horror of Lovecraftian design (Tentacle-y and faceless) and add a Reaper from Supernatural (They wear suits) , and out pops Slenderman.
Ta-Da!
True Story.

You know this was actually not the plan for a story but, meh. When life gives you apples. Make apple pie or Apple Bloom will be sad.
So the only question is... who would be knocking on death's doorstep in order to play the Slenderpony's game?
Mayor Mare perhaps? Maybe a sickness of hers. Seems it would be interesting.
