Celebrate Halloween with Slender: The Arrival coming to stalk your mobile this month

The month of Halloween brings some of the scariest games you’ve ever played with it. Adding to this list is Blue Isle Studios’ critically acclaimed cult hit, Slender: The Arrival. This survival horror game featuring the Slender Man is finally coming to mobile, allowing him to stalk every move from your pockets, making sure you are never ever alone again.

If you’re still reading, it means you’re prepared for everything that’s going to be thrown at you. So, check out the trailer below, and prepare to be frightened.

Slender: The Arrival is launching on October 13th, unfortunately not a Friday, with the first gameplay chapter being unlocked for free. The decision to continue lies in the player’s hand. Fight your agony through Chapter 1 and decide if you have what it takes to continue this harrowing journey.

The game puts you at the centre of the Slender Man mythos. You’re surrounded by millions of stories about this horrific character that has been described by eyewitnesses as “A thin, unnaturally tall man dressed in a black suit with a blank, featureless face.” Oh, this gives me the creeps.
