ML Andersen 0
A youtube series based upon the Slenderman Mythos.
ML Andersen (also known as Andersen Journals) is the story of Michael Lukas Andersen, a young man plagued by some... rather nasty problems. His relationship with his brother certainly isn't the best. And Michael's life has been a series of stints in mental institutions due to some psychological issues and supposed frequent delusions. He makes a vlog for his psychiatrist to document his life and places the videos up on a youtube account. A short while after starting the vlogs, Michael develops a new problem. Namely, the constant, unwanted presence of a tall man in a business suit with no face. Cue what Slendy does best.
