New ‘Slender Man’ trailer: An internet meme becomes something truly scary

Slender Man, a.k.a Slenderman, “gets into your head,” says a tormented girl in the trailer for the upcoming horror flick based on the scary internet meme. “Like a virus.”

Set in a small Massachusetts town, the story begins with four girls performing a ritual as a means to debunk the existence of the Slender Man who is blamed for the disappearances and suicides of young girls.

“It’s him,” a girl in a darkened forest says to herself as the ghostly figure appeared.

The cast includes Joey King, Julia Goldani-Telles, Jaz Sinclair, Annalise Basso and Javier Botet. Producers are Bradley J. Fischer, James Vanderbilt, William Sherak, Robyn Meisinger and Sarah Snow.

Slender Man hits theaters May 2018.
