YES THIS IS FAKE!! im doing it for class but if you guys want to i will keep writing :biggrin.gif:
i know this says slenderman and thats how i know this forum because i geuss minecraft has like a character based off it or somethin? ummmm so yeah heres the diary i found
like i say later i make notes with aterisks "* insert text*"
My name is Austin and this is something i found in my new house, it seems to be a diary or something it has no dates but it is in order so i thought i would put this up on the internet so someone could tell me who wrote this and what the slender man is! on the front it has the initials of E.R.G i thought this may help. If i make notes in it ill put it like this *insert note here*
the slender man is a mystical creature, one that i have been studying for years. this creature has intrigued me since i believe i saw him in my youth.
One cold night in my home town, Stirling city, I saw a dark figure outside my second story room, being a young child I was curious and scared at the same time but investigated anyway. As I looked out my window i saw him, the slender man he was tall in fact tall enough to stare right into my window, he was skinny like a twig and it seemed he had more than two arms. I think he noticed me looking at him and he just stared and stared, and stared, it felt like hours he had this grappling look and I couldn't even see his eyes. i woke up the next morning outside almost exactly where he had been standing, but no remembrance of how i got there. i came inside before my parents were awake, ate breakfast and went to school like any other day. i thought maybe it was just a dream but when i got home that changed. my mom and dad being their usual self were talking about the news, and i guess their were some missing kids and then they talked about a picture in the news paper, so I snuck out of the kitchen and looked at the picture. It was the strangest thing, it was the same thing i saw in my dream. "Was it really a dream?" I thought to my self. i now think today that it wasn't so thats why i study him and try to prove he exists before he takes more people.
The slender man has been in history for a LONG time. A Renowned german woodcutter Hans Freckenberg created at least two woodcuts featuring a character he described as Der Ritter (the knight) during the mid-sixteenth century that were discovered in Halstberg Castle in 1883. these pictures depicted a skeletal multi-limbed character. historians are unsure of the exact symbolic nature of the character, many say Freckenberg was attempting to represent Der Grobmann (the Tall Man) or like I think the slender man. Thats only one of many accounts from history.
Today, I did some more research like everyday but i think i have something good. ill being traveling to Tryon in Polk county there was a incident there about the slender man and a farm on the outskirts of the town.
I've made it to Tryon and I've been asking around town about the incident and a lot of people seem a little frightened and quiet about it, but I did get some answers. so i guess it was called the Henderson Horse Farm Incident of 1953. the story says Ted (the father) was found barricaded by furniture in a room. Next to him was the body of his wife, she had been killed by a shotgun, and his daughter was gone. Ted was charged with the murders but admitted into a mental hospital because of his catatonic state. 3 years later he finally started talking a little bit, he referred to "skinny fella.. suit… looking at me." who had taken both his wife and daughter, Ted claimed his wife begged him to kill her, and felt that he had "saved her" by doing so. he said he couldn't save his daughter though. His daughter never was found.
those were the only things I found out about it.
I have decided to stay another day here maybe find out some more about the henderson farm incident.
Seems it was a good thing to stay here, I've found an old picture of the farm a week before the incident it looks like a suited man standing in front of the stales, I am assuming it to be the slender man.
I'm getting more and more paranoid everyday. i see him everywhere. I've been looking at old childhood pictures he is in some of them! this is getting more personal I'm going to try to photograph him.
Again he's here! *some random scribbles and some unfinished words i couldn't figure out*
*it goes on a few pages with just drawings and they are really vivid and some gory*
Ive stopped researching, i am becoming so paranoid I sleep with a pistol under my pillow and a light on. I just can't take it any more. He has to be real, he's gotta be! I am NOT crazy ok!
*it skips a bunch of pages but i think its continued a little bit further, let me check*
I have a photo, of him. i know I said I stopped researching and I did, but even when i stopped researching he still followed me. so maybe if I stay alive and look for how to stop him i can get rid of him, once and for all……
*i know he speaks of a picture but I've looked and looked where i found the book (my basement) and i can't seem to find it, i will continue looking though*
It's not bad, but your capitalization, punctuation and diction could use some work (most people struggle with this though, I know I certainly have bad punctuation). Some of the sentences just seem a bit... awkward. I'm not too sure how to explain more specifically than that. The way you transition into the diary entry itself is also a bit strange; I've never really seen the use of asterisks like that. If you want an example of one that I felt was really well-done, grab any of the later Harry Potter books and search for an instance where an article from the Daily Prophet is part of the prose. Oh, here's an afterthought: add some exposition to the narrator's introduction, it's on the sparse side, IMO.
Other than that, there's some real potential here. I like it :smile.gif:

the capitalization and punc. are bad mostly because im not doing it in MS word because i dont feel like buying it when i can just use google docs :tongue.gif: other than that thanks for the suggestion
