I don't know if anyone has asked this before, but I was very curious as to what you all thought. What are some of the best, unnerving, and creepy proxy videos you've all seen?

I guess youre defining proxy as a mortal third party like everyone else incorrectly does?

Well now I feel silly, because that's the only way I've ever heard the term used in Slender Man media :\

a proxy is a direct servant. most people ignore that and put a broad stamp on it all

That's what I was referring to the first time.

They do that because "proxy" is a nicer term than "totheark knockoff."

you dont watch many vlogs, do ya? Things have changed. deer lort.
EDIT: And to the OP- you've got an issue then, as 25% of video responses and "proxy videos" as you'd call them, arent made by direct servants, merely third parties.

I've always wondered how most proxies that wanna troll the vlogger on youtube obtain the account password. It's getting kind of cliche. kind of.
BUT THE OBSERVER'S VIDEOS FROM TRIBE TWELVE ARE THE BEST!!!!!

I always assumed that a proxy is more specific than Just Anyone Else. They would have to be acting on behalf of someone (presumably Ol' Slendy). That's what "proxy" means.

thats what it SHOULD be. but so many people dont get that. apparently the likes of HABIT and roivassevil are proxies in the eyes of a lot of people. thats one inaccuracy too far

I should just change the topic title to "The best cryptic bullshit".

Anyway, I'm a bad person so here's this:

Not many new ones, no. If things have changed, I'll take your word for it. But in the majority of older vlogs (and even some blogs!), the "ambiguously antagonistic character posting cryptic videos on an outside channel" is insanely common. There are a few variations, like the antagonism being blatant (TribeTwelve) or the cryptic videos being posted on the main channel (EverymanHYBRID), and a lot of these characters evolved past that, but it's enough to make me say "oh, it's THAT guy" every time I see him pop up another series.

I think the best is either KindVonDerRitter or Wemustcollector, TTA use to be scary, however, that was when I believed the mythos were real.

*WeMustCollect
I couldn't help but correct.
Anyway, I love all of those channels. And I'm pretty sure that everyone has been at that point where they thought the mythos MIGHT be real, like me. The TTA responses still get to me even now, though. I love them so much.
KindVonDerRitter is definitely up there for cryptic-ness and creepiness. Especially the Rainwood one.
WeMustCollect's "DEAR_DIARY" is pretty much one of my favorites so far. The screaming and the stillness of Connor is just chilling.
Yknow, these types of videos have pretty much become an artform for me, like most creepy-esque things are to me. Just the cryptic messages, symbolism, darkness, and creativity used in them are just completely artistic.
