I find scary/creepy games fun and exciting and I don't know why. I hate scary books or scary movies but games are a whole different story. I have watched/played Alan Wake and Amnesia (the dark descent) along with others but I have to say, when watching people play Slender, it doesn't look that bad. Then you play it. At night. With the lights off. For those who don't know what the game Slender is, I will explain. It is a game based off the Slenderman story. in the game you have limited controls. You can turn your flashlight on and off, you CAN NOT jump, and you can "jog/sprint". (you have such a small stamina it's almost not worth it. Also when you run, the flashlight points at the ground and causes a freaky breathing noise.) The goal of the game is to collect all 8 pages spread throughout a dark forest. The catch, the notes are places in creepy spots such as on a tree, inside a large, almost maze like compound, or in between large tanks(the liquid kind not the vehicle). Also after you grab Note 1 creepier music plays along with more sound effects such as a drumbeat heart, and both the owls and crickets get louder. As you go along your mad rush to grab the notes, your flashlight starts to die and the more notes you grab the more aggressive Slenderman gets. If Slenderman catches you, your screen will start to fuzz and if you don't run away quick enough he will kill you. Anyway, I played this yesterday and the farthest I got was 6/8 pages. Then I got trapped by the fence. Yay. last night was not a good one sleep wise though I did have adrenaline exhaustion. I still think that the game is great and that if you want to pee your pants, this is the way to go!

Why do people enjoy scaring themselves to the point of not sleeping

I agree with Conor here... Why do people feel the need to scare themselves to the point of not sleeping!? However good the game may be, it's not worth literally losing sleep over...
