Our would you survive Slenderman quiz begins on the walk home at dusk, when you glance back and see something far too tall beside the trees. Would you look away, run or reach for your camera? Make ten choices about photos, peepholes and lonely roads, and discover whether you’d survive the internet’s most famous monster.
How to use it
Answer honestly, especially when a question asks whether you’d look back. The scenarios draw on our Slenderman page, including the figures in old photographs, the midnight peephole and the woodcuts of “Der Ritter.” Your choices lead to one of five outcomes.
