Re the Smith sisters - who had email in 1993? I know it existed but, who the hell had it as a teenager in 1993?

I have a legend! Not scary though.

A group of medical students are gathered round their mentor who is telling them the best way of testing for diabetes. He holds up a beaker of urine, dips his finger in and puts it in his mouth; he then explains that if a patient has diabetes then the urine would taste sweet. He instructs the students to do the same which they do rather reluctantly.

When the last student has finished being sick the Dr says 'One of the most important things about being a dr is observation. Not one of you noticed that I put a different finger in my mouth to the one I dipped in the beaker.'

What's up Lord my love??

Yes, the ones that don't have him in are 100% real

Has anyone tried playing the game? I just downloaded it but got frustrated after about 10 seconds. The controls are so annoying. Never even got to see Slender.

I think one or two are real photos the ones where you can't actually see anything untoward

No, ALL of them are photoshopped because it's not real

Most of this slender man photos are photoshopped, no?

Some of those Slender Man photos... If I was that close to one then taking a photo would be the last thing I would be doing!

Reece's story is brilliant bloody scary. Got the same vibe from The league of gentlemen too...sinister but hilarious. Miss that show.

He's called RealReeceShears, sausage.
Take some advice from a girl who knows, do not click any of his links after dark .

Very bad grammar in that post. This is what happens when you get The Fear.

Perplexed! That has shit me up a treat!

I'm unclear about the slender/stick man.But the slender man sounds creepy and menacing and in my head lollops and looms. Stick man is a cartoon stick man in my head- but he is spindly and much faster. Like a spider. This is only in my head though.

What is his twitter name? I can't find him on there.

Something I have been wondering all through this thread - are the slender man and stick man the same legend?

I was talking to DH about the thread and he reminded me of an excellent story I'd forgotten all about. Reece Sheersmith posted it on Twitter a while ago (follow him if you like spooky stuff, avoid like the plague if you don't).

So, a woodsman was on his way home one night when he realised he had taken a wrong turn and was in a part of the forest he had never seen before. He wasn't worried, being experienced in the ways of the woods, and decided to find shelter for the night and find his way home in the morning.
Darkness had just fallen when to his delight he saw in a small clearing a wooden shack. The door opened easily and the woodsman was glad to see a bed in the dark room.
As the man settled for the night and his eyes adjusted to the dark he noticed that all around the walls of the cabin were a series of portraits showing people with the most fearsome expressions of hatred and violence on their faces.
The paintings all seemed to be glaring down at the woodsman on the bed, and it was only when the fatigue of his day overcame him was he able to finally fall asleep.
In the morning, the woodsman awoke blinking in surprise as sunlight flooded the cabin. He realised that he had been mistaken the night before. The were no pictures on the walls of the cabin.
Only windows.

Oh, I'll give that one a miss then. Thanks for the heads up!

Ummm I think it was called the dating game. It's not ghostly but horrible and involves children which, after having my own, I can't handle really.

I just highlighted it and I could see it then. It's no smile dog, is it?

What was the really disturbing creepy pasta?

Eau there is a face in that pic but I could only see it when I looked at my laptop screen at a certain angle. The face looks like a skinny pokemon character i.e. not scary at all.

From this thread I had a few days of being slightly addicted to the creepy pasta site, most of it seemed to be written by 13 year olds so I didn't find it scary. Then I read one that did really disturb me so i've stopped going on there now.

Ha! I wish I had the luxury of being able to sit and stare at something for 5 minutes without having a small child climb at me saying 'what are you looking at, mummy? Can I see?'

I find Japanese horror the most scary (Ring, The Grudge, Dark Water, Pulse etc) not sure why. The US remakes just didn't scare me. Why? What's more scary about horror films with subtitles?!

Found this link too...only looked at it for about 2 seconds before bailing like a big wuss. See how long you can last...moo ha ha ha!

Well the story did say it was dark, maybe she didn't have a flash on her camera.
