After JC and the team gets done tackling the beast known as purity, I vote they make October an easier and more fun patch month and add some crazy stuff like some of this stuff. Maybe cut down on all the excessive overtime for a month lol.

We were thinking the same thing... Perhaps Stalls and some new mobs for October. Time will tell.

"The character of the fearsome critters themselves was usually more comical than frightful." - Wikipedia

BEWARE THE FEARSOME SKUNKAPE!

(basically bigfoot with down syndrome).

Na, all kidding aside, and forgetting what Wikipedia says, there are indeed a lot of creepy, legendary creatures crafted by the imaginations of the colonial era. Some practically puke nightmare fuel like the Hidebehind, a creature which waits in ambush behinds trees, grabs lumberjacks, and then eats their intestines (while they're still alive). Still, many others just seem like any other animal, only weirder. Slenderman sticks out to me because he's supernatural in nature, and more creativity can be employed based around his mythos and abilities. I certainly don't think that Salem should just go through Creepypasta stories and start throwing their monsters in them the game, and should indeed focus on actual legendary creatures of the era, though a mix would be nice.

And even if Slenderman is never even considered, there's always this ***** thing:



The Jersey Devil, who started as a Native American legend. Sleep tight.

I think the Jersey Devil has a model and animation already done for the game (you can see it in the traliar videos on the main page) Also Spoilor tags are very useful to put large images in.

It was probably a hidebehind.

To be fair this is a game featuring bear wrestling, slenderman is supposed to be scary not because it is outwardly malicious, but because **** goes nuts when it shows up with no explanation, it wouldn't really work without cameraphones freaking out.
