So, I live right by the woods. Deep, dark woods. All around. So deep, you could walk straight for miles and get nowhere. The tree canopy leaves the forest dark and shady, even on the brightest of days. Once, I walked very deep back into the woods. VERY deep. Looking back, I don't really know why I ever did. But, to the point, I walked into those woods for hours. Miles away from any people. And I came to find a particularly tall tree... with the Operator Symbol on it. And written right above it (or below it, I don't remember that well), was "YOU'RE NEXT." Then... I don't really remember what happened after that. I don't really remember walking back home. I've experienced the loss of extended periods of time quite a bit. But I've never really seen the Slender Man, or experienced any of the other phenomena related to him. And back when I had this encounter was before I had ever heard of the Operator Symbol... or the Slender Man. I've never gone back to those woods, and I don't plan to. Now if anyone could tell me, what exactly is the significance of the Operator Symbol, and in what way is it related to the Slender Man?
