What were his motivations? What happened to the people in the photos who disappeared? Why did he wear a suit? There were so many questions, so any contribution, narrative or visual, had the potential to expand the myth.
The ideas fans spitballed in a forum were becoming part of the story, and people could watch it happen in real time. Each subsequent fan creator could use and build on what was already there. The Slender Man myth — his history, customs, most recent deeds, proxies — was quickly established. He began as a couple Photoshopped images and a handful of sentences. Less than two weeks later, he had his first YouTube series. A couple of years later, there would be homemade video games, like Slender: The Eight Pages , and then bigger-budget titles, like Slender: The Arrival.
It was like one big, very dysfunctional family reunion. Like anything, though, the Slender Man community eventually began to lose steam. Even before the stabbing case, the community was dying of natural causes; series were petering out and fans were scattering.
It was also splitting along ideological lines. One blog in particular, White Elephants , presented the Core Theory, which was this idea that Slender Man was a tulpa, or a being brought to life by the imaginations of different people. But the real turning point for Slender Nation was the stabbing. In , Anissa Weier and Morgan Geyser — both 12 years old — lured year-old Payton Leutner into the woods near their homes in Waukesha, Wisconsin, where they stabbed her 19 times with a kitchen knife.
Weier and Geyser, meanwhile, both pled guilty in by reason of mental disease or defect, and each was sentenced to lengthy stays in mental institutions. The case was highly publicized, first when the stabbing happened, then again when the girls were sentenced three years later. It left an indelible stain on the Slender Man community and anyone who put any amount of effort into keeping the myth alive. From then on, it was impossible to define themselves as a community without acknowledging the tragedy.
Even now, the stabbing is something of a taboo subject among the Slender Man splinter communities that remain. When I asked to speak with a moderator of the Slender Man Wiki for this article, they responded with the following:. We just want to enjoy a good horror story. We just want to be left alone. Other fans I reached out to were more willing to discuss the stabbing and the effect it had on Slender Nation.
Per the American Heart Association, dedicated radial sheaths with hydrophilic coating combined with smaller diameter sheaths and a tapered tip design may reduce risk of arterial spasm and radial occlusion 2.
The thin wall technology featured on the Glidesheath Slender Sheath is designed to facilitate atraumatic radial access while maintaining an optimal sheath-to-artery ratio.
