Well that depends, if you believe in something strong enough it can become reality to you. Other people may not be able to see it because they don't believe it, and when you try and tell them what you see, they think you're crazy or you are imagining things. And it is true that kids can see things that adults can, their minds are the easiest to manipulate, also people who wear contacts or glasses can't see them easily, or not at all, because they block your actual sight.

Slenderman was never actually a kid, he was always the way he is, there's no changing him, he doesn't age, maybe his appearance changes slightly, but he never looks younger and never looks older. Slendermans origin is different than Jeff's, Jeff was picked on as a kid, which is what lead to his snap.

As for the "Faerie" thing, he isn't a Spirit, he's not a ghost, and he does live in the Fae realm, I guarantee you I could find him, the darkest parts, never in the light, it wouldn't be that hard, maybe he was sent here? Maybe he started here, we don't know and chances are we will never know.

I'm sure you are looking forward to them..
