You need to start with the character and let the reader watch him transform into his JtK personality. Trying to weird up the story won't work. I'm fine with you giving it a try. As long as you don't get too far from the source material or piss off the fans. The idea (spoilers: same as what I have in mind for a great slenderman story that relies on mystery about the creature and withholding instead of throwing it out there; unless you have read the original story very closely you won't know it's a slendy until it's too late) is to take the source material and remake it into something that works within the laws of reality and practicality. It will focus more on Pre-JtK Jeff, or maybe even why he calls himself that. Any more would be spoilers, though >:3

EDIT: As far as not pissing off the fans, I believe that there is a great potential for JtK to have been a really good story, it just was badly written. Well the story seems like something a ten year old emo girl wrote it in her creative writing class. I wish you luck, man. I have confidence you'll turn out something that is good.
