We have plenty of Slenderman pastas. The point of this rule is to inspire creativity, so that people don't just leech off of other, more successful creepypastas. Seriously, it drastically lowers this wiki's quality standards as a whole when every story is a sub-par rip-off of Slenderman, Jeff the Killer, Pokémon Creepy Black, Ben Drowned, Smiledog, etc.
