Creepy... WHAT?

Happy Halloween everybody! As promised, I will tell you about two creepy games. As for myself, I don't quite appreciate the horror games, but it fits with the Hallow's End, so let's begin!
Probably most of you have played games like "Slender-Man - Six Pages", or "Slender-Man - Sanatorium" on smartphones. It is okay, I am not going to make a review about how bad can the smartphones be. Thus, does anyone know how this "Slender-Man(ia)" appeared? If you don't, let me tell you. Slender is an urban legend, based on a purely fictional character, that wears a black suit, is very tall and slim, it has eight tentacles and it is said that it had no face. However, nobody knows because the ones that said "I saw him!" are either liars, either dead, either brain-damaged. It is also said about Slender that follows kids that run away from home and, in order to punish them, he rips their face off their head. A strange and weird story, but it is just a legend, so you can either believe, either not. Anyways, if you hadn't played this game, it is a first-person shooter-like game where you try to collect a number of pages in different environments. Even so, except for the "Sanatorium" environment, the others are not scary at all. Also, if you want a vision of this game, you can find it here:
 Slender-Man: Six Pages (I think)
 
 

As promised I will tell you about another creepy game, which you wouldn't even think about. I bet there are 0% people that haven't heard about Pokémon. Yes, Pokémon!!! One of the creepiest games ever! And before you would say: "But you cannot die in this game!", I will tell you that it is wrong. YOU can really die in AND out of the game. Or at least you could in the first version.
Yes, sir! In the first version that appeared only in Japan, you had a very strange story: you had to get to climb up to the top of Lavender Town Pokémon Tower. I know, nothing scary at all. But, since the Japanese were playing with headphones, the children between 10 and 15 years committed suicide! I know, it is crazy, but it's true! In Lavender Town, the background music had very high, almost hypnotic frequencies, which were damaging the human brain. Also, instead of a Marowak (if you play Pokémon Fire Red - the final boss of Lavender Town Tower) it was a zombie-type creature, what remained from Marowak (most probably), called Buried Alive. which, no matter if you win or lose, it eats you and erases your save data. Due to this cause, Game Freak (Pokémon creators) had to pay a huge bill and lots of games were destroyed. Anyways, I'll show you how the game would end, but first check this out - the problem that scientists called LTS (Lavender Town Syndrome)- :

There is another guy that could explain better the LTS - he is called J-Wittz, which has a channel on YouTube. And, as I told earlier, this is how you encounter this beast. First, a tombstone would appear that has seen you. Then, the following are said: "You're... here... I'm trapped... And I'm lonely... So very lonely... Won't you join me?" Then, the battle begins. Also, on this floor, the music is played at a very low pitch, hard to hear. This one meant that you should be half-hypnotized. Your brain now tries to figure out how the end of the battle would be (is influenced by the battle). However, since you can't win, no matter what, there was a trick: if you win, the brain would be okay, but if you lose, the following words were said: "Finally... Raw meat...". After this, the game freezes and shows the player how it is being devoured by Buried Alive. This also started the Lavender Town Creepypasta (short horror stories). And, if you have guts, check the following link -it's a hack with a battle between a player and Buried Alive-

Now, before that, another advice: DO NOT OPEN THE VIDEO IF YOU CAN'T STAND HORROR IMAGES (even pixelated) OR IF YOU HAVE HEART PROBLEMS! THERE IS A SCREAMER AT THE END OF THE VIDEO, WHICH SHOWS HOW THE PLAYER IS DEVOURED!!! THIS IS NOT A JOKE!

Now, before we could end, I feel really sorry for the ones that really died while playing this game. Even if I did not know anyone of them, they should rest in peace.

So, I hope you liked the today's article. If you want more information about Lavender Town, you could watch J-Wittz's video - Lavender Town Myths. So, until next time, I wish you a Happy Halloween!
