* KindheartedSimpleton: Chloe is this as while she did bring her death onto herself, she is still the sweetest person in this movie (next to Lizzie). Her childhood about her father is quite heartbreaking compared to the rest of her DesignatedHero friends. [[NothingIsScarier Whatever happened to her, even if she bought it on herself, it was probably awful]]. Thankfully, many people who actually prefer this ending think she's still alive (albeit without any eyes).

* DrivenToSuicide: In the trailer we see a girl stab herself with a knife in the middle of a class, splattering another girl in her blood and a boy walk off of a roof in [[DaylightHorror broad daylight]]. It is safe to assume that the Slender Man [[BrainwashedAndCrazy is influencing these events in some form]] due to the fact that the girl is clearly hesitant to go through with the act, but does so anyways.

Don't reply. Besides, this version of the Slender Man doesn't follow the original lore very closely.


** Although it’s debatable how intentional this is, since Slender Man is based off a somewhat well known internet legend already.

Added DiffLines:

* HumanDisguise: The film answers the question "Why would an evil tree being wear a suit?" in a very clever way; Slender Man has folds of bark and leaves on his chest that appear to be a shirt and tie at a quick glance.

* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: Due to the cut scenes from the film, the exact fates of Chloe and Tom remain undisclosed from the film proper. While the removed scene of [[spoiler:Chloe committing suicide out of madness, along with the fact that Lizzie groups Chloe up along with her dead friends/sister, can give an explanation to those willing to accept that it happened off screen,]] Tom's fate is never seen or even mentioned by anyone but looking at the trailer, one can assume [[spoiler:he also committed suicide by jumping off a bridge]].

** Also, while it seems to be thought that Chloe probably commited suicide after the film ended, people who want to believe she survived have to deal with fact that while a ShrugOfGod confirms this, she did so by cutting out her eyes. This is movie is just something else ain't it.
