I like your idea about the Slenderman wearing a costume. That was very interesting.

For me though, Slenderman is at his scariest when you don't try to reason/make sense of it. It's just a creepy thing that creeps people out. That's why I dislike (pretty much) all the stories written around Slenderman. The cults, his weaknesses, his motives, it's all missing the point. Slenderman is just something that is creepy, without explanation.

I remember the first images that surfaced creeped me out for a minute. It was never meant to be anything more than that.
