I can't imagine it going any good loool

The alien talk on TikTock was enough to make me sleep with the light on and pester my friend about how scared I was hahaha. I don't know a lot about horror games but I am familiar with the slender mand game and Five nights at Freddy's.

a game similar to slender man is 'kholat' about the detliev incident in russia

I wouldn’t say horror is bad necessarily, some people find it affects them more than others. It really scares some people but others aren’t affected at all because maybe some people can reason with themselves in their own head “this is all totally fictional and nothing can actually happen to me”. 

TikTok is very competitive, and a lot of people find the mental health side of it very damaging because people do make very distressing videos. Perhaps because they’re desperate for help, or because it makes those people feel like their struggles are more valid because of the reaction they get from the videos.

if tiktok knew, why dont they terminate accounts, or suggest where to get help

i like horror games, i dont like feeling normal )))
