There’s Some Slender Man in My ‘Plants Vs. Zombies Garden Warfare’
It looks like Plants Vs. Zombies Garden Warfare, a competitive first person shooter set in Popcap’s quirky Plants Vs. Zombies series, has a number of Easter Eggs hidden in it. I haven’t had a chance to play the game yet, but it looks fun. Or, at least it looked fun. Now I’m not so sure. I know what it’s like to be hunted by that dapper interdimensional being, so I’m hesitant to play this now that I know that he could strike at any time.
He could be behind me right now. Or you.
If you own the game and would like to see where his favorite lurking spot is, you can watch the video below.

One of Clive Barker’s Final Convention Appearances Will Be at New Jersey’s Monster Mania in August
We told you earlier this month that horror legend Clive Barker is leaving the convention scene behind to focus entirely on his writing, with various upcoming projects in the works.
A series of final appearances from Barker will begin at Days of the Dead Chicago this month, and we’ve learned Barker will also be coming to Monster Mania in New Jersey.
Clive Barker will be signing at Monster Mania 59 in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, which runs from August 2 – August 4, 2024. Stay tuned for more info from the convention.
Barker’s official statement earlier this month explained, “… it’s time to focus entirely on writing. I’m not stopping public events because I’ve lost delight in meeting you all over the years. I’m as passionate as ever about sharing my imagination with readers and moviegoers around the world. In the very room where I’m writing these words, I have the manuscripts for a very large number of projects (Thirty-one of them), some very close to completion, others still telling themselves. There are some wild projects in this collection of works, whether close to finished or done. There are also stories that you all knew I would be finishing.”
“Abarat IV and V are amongst the books at my feet,” he continued. “So is the Third and final book of The Art and the sequel to The Thief of Always. There are also return visits to characters and mythologies you may have thought I would never return to.
“I hope I am still able to surprise you in the decades ahead.”
