these two internet horror icons have us
constantly looking over our shoulders
welcome to watchmojo.com and in this
installment of vs. we’re pitting
Slenderman against Jeff the killer to
find out which is the more chilling
character we’re going now I have a plan
for ChaCha’s round one origin story a
supernatural being whose activities
include stocking children in the woods
Slenderman is a mysterious figure whose
backstory is largely unknown however his
real-life iteration is easier to pin
down
Slenderman made his debut in 2009 in a
Photoshop contest of all places hosted
by the humor website Something Awful a
man by the username Victor Serge
submitted two photos introducing him one
of those photos shows children playing
with a dark entity in the background its
caption claimed that the man who took
the photograph had disappeared as had 14
children seen in the picture similar to
Slenderman Jeff the killer originally
started out with a picture however his
origins are even more mysterious and
unverifiable some sources state that
someone with the username killer Jeff
first posted the image and that the pic
was allegedly a photoshopped image of a
girl who eventually committed suicide
because of cyber bullying in 2008 a
YouTube video posted by SACEUR claimed
to give the original story of Jeff the
killer revealing the so-called fact that
he accidentally poured acid all over
himself but the most famous and repeated
back story goes something like this Jeff
is just your average teenager except
that he can have a bit of a violent
streak after a run-in with some bullies
at a birthday party jeff is set on fire
and badly burned
his disfigurement leads to his mental
breakdown after which he murders his
family and presumably continues
murdering people to this day since Jeff
the killer has a more definable origin
story we’re giving this round to him
winner Jeff the killer round 2 weapons
and abilities if you were ever unlucky
enough to encounter Slenderman in the
woods
let’s just say it wouldn’t be pretty his
arms can stretch out and on top of that
he has tentacles coming out of his back
that can grab you as well
what’s more looking at the supernatural
creature can drive people to a psychotic
state referred to as slender sickness
and if that’s not bad enough he’s also
said to possess the ability to teleport
for a teen Jeff the killer is pretty
strong and agile as evidenced by the
fact that he was able to hold his own
against multiple bullies at the same
time during another fight
Jeff was said to have killed one of the
bullies by punching him in the heart and
he was able to yank a towel rack from a
wall and beat another bully to a pulp
with it
he’s also demonstrated the ability to
overpower adults when he stabbed his
parents to death so let’s just say
Jeff’s not messing around
while Jeff looks like he’d be a tough
opponent to take on in a fight we don’t
think he’s any match for slender man’s
powers this round goes to Slenderman
winner
Slenderman round three appearance
when it comes to appearance it’s kind of
hard to explain but there’s not much to
Slenderman which makes it easier for him
to blend into his background in addition
to the tentacles mentioned earlier he
wears a dark suit and tie he can also
change his appearance on a whim as
evidenced by that arm stretching skill
we talked about but ultimately when a
victim looks directly at him they see a
pale face a void into which he or she
can project his or her worst fears in
contrast to Slenderman Jeff the killer’s
features are more distinct his face
appears to be bleached white and in the
original picture he has no nose in a
very creepy twist his eyes look bigger
than they are because his eyelids have
been burned off scalpel
he also carved his mouth into a Glasgow
smile which has given him a hideous
permanent grin or know what cut these
scars admittedly slender man’s vague
features have an eerie quality but
honestly who cares Jeff the killer is
incredibly freaky looking so he takes
this round winner Jeff the killer round
for popularity with fans fans have
written countless creepypastas about
Slender Man putting their own personal
spin on the enigmatic figure there have
also been popular indie games based on
the character such as slender the eight
pages and slender the arrival Ron Ron
Ron Ron Ron whoa maaaah and he also
provided the inspiration for the
Minecraft character Enderman web surfers
have been freaked out by several online
web series revolving around Slenderman
including Marble Hornets but worst of
all devotion to Slenderman among fans
has been so intense that it’s even led
to attempted murder in Waukesha
Wisconsin two 12 year old girls stabbed
one of their classmates because they
reported they wanted to impress
Slenderman it was Morgan’s idea to kill
Payton to prove themselves quote worthy
to Slenderman like Slenderman Jeff the
killer has also been the subject of
numerous short stories and pieces
fanart and audiences seemed to love the
story as of october 2016 a video by
youtube user mr. creepypasta in which he
reads the jeff the killer tale has over
5 million views there’s cold evil eyes
that psychotic smile will never leave my
head however while Jeff the killer
started out as one of the most popular
stories in the creepypasta community
fans began to resent the tale and its
titular character over time according to
TV tropes org because more creepypasta
stories of better quality have started
to pop up the creepypasta wiki took Jeff
the killer off and put it on the troll
pasta wiki a sister site reserved for
inferior creepypasta stories however in
2015 a remake of the Jeff the killer
story came out with the intention to
improve on the original and correct some
of the problems that had been met with
criticism Jeff the killer may have the
views but when you take into account the
Wisconsin incident slender man’s clearly
got the fans passion therefore Slender
Man wins this round winner Slender Man
round 5 scare factor
when considering what’s scariest about
Slenderman there are many aspects to
choose from not only does this character
tap into our fear of the unknown
it also freaks us out by showing us the
effect the creature can have on various
characters mental states right here
honestly when you read a creepypasta
about Slenderman the fourth wall feels
like it’s being torn down almost as if
Slenderman is waiting right out there to
stop and terrorize you given Jeff the
killer’s jarring face his photo has been
used in several screamer videos but
perhaps the creepiest thing about Jeff
the killer is the fact that he tells his
victims to go to sleep before he plants
his knife into them as with Slenderman
there’s a sense of dread the Jeff the
killer is actually out on the loose
looking for his next victim
however there is one glaring weakness to
the Jeff the killer creepypasta many
people have complained that his original
story is so poorly written that it
undermines any possible tension it could
have elicited as such round 5 belongs to
Slenderman winner
Slenderman the final count
Slenderman beets Jack the killer by a
score of 3 to 2 and that is one fight we
would love to see do you agree with our
choice don’t forget to battle it out in
the comments and for more terrifying vs.
