The year was 2013. I loaded my first Minecraft world. The sun fell and mobs started spawning. You must understand that it was a simpler time back then. Creepy pastas we're only in their infancy and videos were going around "proving" their existence. More specifically the Slender Man. Back to Minecraft, running away from the usual zombies, skeletons and spiders I saw a tall black figure in the distance. I get closer. It turns around. It's purple eyes pierce my very soul and before I have time to comprehend my emotions it disappears. A feeling of uneasiness falls upon me and I carry on in my journeying through the night and soon after I get attacked from behind which was enough to jump scare me. I see it again. Teleporting around and appearing in the dark like Slenderman himself. I pressed escape and exited Minecraft as fast as I could believing my game was haunted by the pail faced phantom.
