He was a timid, and skinny man in his early 20&#8217;s. After much effort, he managed to finally get a woman in his apartment building into his\u00a0bedroom for a maiden voyage into the realm of lust. Unfortunately, the sadistic peeping\u00a0heavyset\u00a0handyman with master keys had seen the couple enter the apartment, and decided to let himself in. \u00a0The pervert crawled into the dimly lit bedroom undetected as Porter neared ever closer to ultimate ecstasy.<\/p>\n<h3>A Romantic Interlude Interrupted By A Blasphemous Bully<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The handyman was a lifetime bully who relished in messing with those he perceived to be weaker than himself. He snickered silently and hid behind the open bedroom door. \u00a0When the act was complete Porter got out of bed\u00a0to use the bathroom, and just then the handyman slammed the bedroom door closed to reveal himself. He roared loudly while flailing his arms. \u00a0Porter fell to the floor crying in the fetal position completely naked while the creep laughed maniacally. \u00a0The peeping perv\u00a0then looked at the woman in bed, and said, &#8220;What a pathetic loser you just slept with! I can barely see his willy!&#8221; He then shook his head and left chuckling.\u00a0 The woman urged Porter to go after the bully or at least call the police but he just sobbed on the floor. She left in disgust.<\/p>\n<h3>The Obsessive Compulsive Urge To Check Behind Every Door In Sight!<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">After that incident, Porter became deeply paranoid about doors not being flatly opened against the wall upon entry, or fully closed while inside. When opening a door he&#8217;d also\u00a0pull it back, or push it forward\u00a0slowly making sure nobody was waiting on the other side. \u00a0Despite attempts at psychiatric therapy he would obsessively push doors flat against the wall, and check behind them\u00a0repeatedly everywhere he was! This was just one of many phobias he had acquired in his cowardly life. Ultimately, growing up in a tumultuous home of poverty with unstable parents made him what he was.<\/p>\n<h3>The Minute A Phobia Is Cured It Becomes Reality<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Porter&#8217;s door phobia went on for over 15 years until his late 30&#8217;s when he met a beautiful psychologist became his girlfriend despite the ethical conflict of the relationship. \u00a0He now lived in a house and had a ritual of checking behind the front door when he entered, and then proceeding to every door, and closet in the house. \u00a0One day after coming home from work at about 6 PM he was feeling happy, and confident about going out with his girlfriend later on. \u00a0As he unlocked the door and entered he didn&#8217;t turn around to see if anyone was there. \u00a0He decided this would be the first day he would no longer check behind doors ever again. \u00a0He got a drink in the kitchen, and then went upstairs to lay his clothes out on the bed before going to the bathroom to take a shower. Upon returning to his bedroom he noticed the door that had been flat against the wall was now moved outward a bit. \u00a0He told himself he was imagining things, and that no person could even fit behind that anyway. He ignored it and walked over to the bed to get dressed. \u00a0Unfortunately, the dastardly Door Man hidden behind the door pushed\u00a0it open!<\/p>\n<h3>The First Confirmed Kill Of The Door Man Serial Killer!<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The creepy looking Door Man looked somewhat deformed as if slightly flattened by a giant iron. \u00a0His completely black sunken eyes suddenly displayed glowing green pupils as he slowly regained normal slender human form with a height of 6&#8217;6&#8243;.\u00a0 Door Man smiled with dark glee as he sneaked up behind Porter, and screamed, &#8220;Boooooooo!&#8221; \u00a0Porter&#8217;s heart began rapidly\u00a0palpitating as he fell to his knees. \u00a0He screamed loudly, &#8220;Nooooooooooo!&#8221; Door Man responded, &#8220;Oh yeeeeeeeeeeessssssss!&#8221; followed by crazy cackling. \u00a0He then picked up Porter like a scrawny puppet and shoved\u00a0him against the wall behind the door while violently slamming it into him repeatedly until the door was nothing but a pile of toothpicks. Porter lie dead behind the remains of the pulverized wooden door as the first confirmed victim of the supernatural Door Man serial killer! \u00a0We know this because of the classified hidden security cam footage discovered by the <a href=\"http:\/\/mysticinvestigations.com\/paranormal_defense_agency.htm\">US Paranormal Defense Agency<\/a>, and of course, our insider sources gave us the supernatural 411!<\/p>\n<h3>The Origin Of The Door Man<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/mysticinvestigations.com\/halloween-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Door-Creeper.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-2516\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-2516 alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/mysticinvestigations.com\/halloween-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Door-Creeper-200x200.jpg\" alt=\"Door Creeper\" width=\"343\" height=\"343\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mysticinvestigations.com\/halloween-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Door-Creeper-200x200.jpg 200w, https:\/\/mysticinvestigations.com\/halloween-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Door-Creeper-144x144.jpg 144w, https:\/\/mysticinvestigations.com\/halloween-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Door-Creeper-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 343px) 100vw, 343px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Door Man is a supernatural serial killer with only one known shape-shifting ability. That of flattening his muscular-skeletal system just enough to hide behind doors. \u00a0Clearly, he could hide under beds, and other places but doors are his thing. \u00a0His story begins in the home of a violently abused child whose sadistic drunken Stepfather would hide behind doors, and leap out at his son before beating him as he creepily cackled. \u00a0The boys name was Carl Elkwood, and his ever-growing\u00a0dark mind would find sick solace in the <a href=\"http:\/\/mysticinvestigations.com\/paranormal\/what-is-slender-man\/\">Slenderman<\/a> urban legend. \u00a0Carl dreamed of becoming a shape-shifter so he could exact revenge on wrongdoers. \u00a0One fateful day 15-year-old Carl\u00a0happened upon a small shop of paranormal antiquities. \u00a0Carl would return day after day hoping to acquire something belonging to Slenderman. \u00a0Finally, the Shopkeeper claimed to have a talisman that was formed from Slenderman&#8217;s spilled\u00a0blood. \u00a0It&#8217;s a vile black substance that hardens like tar. \u00a0Apparently, a paranormal crime-fighting team known as <a href=\"http:\/\/mysticinvestigations.com\/blog\/summer-of-slender-man\/\">Mystic Investigations had battled Slenderman leaving his blood behind<\/a>. \u00a0A warlock had been watching from the shadows and proceeded to collect the blood to create the talisman with a bit of magic. \u00a0The warlock found it useless since all it did was give the user the ability to compress their skeletal muscular system to a limited degree. So he sold it to the supernatural shop for $2000!<\/p>\n<h3>A Misguided Youth Sees Slenderman As His Salvation<\/h3>\n<p>Carl became obsessed with getting the talisman that was now priced at $4000! \u00a0He was under pressure to come up with the money before someone else bought it. \u00a0One afternoon after coming home from school he saw his Stepfather at the kitchen table counting several large stacks of cash. \u00a0He yelled at Carl, &#8220;What the hell are you doing home this early you little bastard!?!&#8221; \u00a0Before he could answer the phone rang, and his Stepdad was talking about bringing the cash for some merchandise behind the bowling alley. \u00a0He put the money in a brown paper bag, and began to leave but not before aggressively shoving Carl against the refrigerator while smirking. Something finally snapped in Carl, and he picked up a large previously removed kitchen cabinet door and beat the hell out of his stepfather with it. \u00a0He grabbed the cash, quickly packed some things in his backpack, and raced out of the house. \u00a0He made a beeline for the paranormal antiquities shop and promptly bought the Slenderman talisman having $2000 bucks left over.<\/p>\n<h3>A Dark Supernatural Villian Is Born<\/h3>\n<p>Upon placing the dark dull circular Slender talisman around his neck it exponentially fostered the dark thoughts already swirling around his mind. He could also flatten his body by merely thinking about doing so. More precisely he pretended to be his hero Slenderman. Carl realized he could easily hide anywhere in order to catch victims by surprise. The paranormal tool was the perfect fit for his trademark need to hide behind doors and utilize them as weapons as well. In essence, emulating his abusive Stepfather and punishing innocents for his messed up childhood! He then set forth on a worldwide killing spree as he saw the weakest of humankind to be a virus that needed extermination! Thankfully, one positive property of Slenderman was deeply programmed into his mind. Never hurt children! Slenderman kidnaps kids and places them in a static dream state to siphon their metaphysical energy. To our knowledge, he has never physically harmed them. So Door Man does the same and only murders weak adults.<\/p>\n<h3>Mental Madness Magnified By Metaphysical Means<\/h3>\n<p>The terrifying talisman gave him the power to shapeshift just <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B00Q6ZBAVQ\/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;creativeASIN=B00Q6ZBAVQ&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=mystic-investigations-20&amp;linkId=FKDGCABF2BWHFUXU\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright\" src=\"http:\/\/ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/widgets\/q?_encoding=UTF8&amp;ASIN=B00Q6ZBAVQ&amp;Format=_SL250_&amp;ID=AsinImage&amp;MarketPlace=US&amp;ServiceVersion=20070822&amp;WS=1&amp;tag=mystic-investigations-20\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a>enough to hide behind doors along with greatly increased strength. \u00a0It&#8217;s also thought that Slenderman communicates with Carl in his dreams, along with\u00a0drawing him to\u00a0people with great fear, and phobias. Carl was soon dubbed Door Man by paranormal investigators, and it seems he liked the name as well. He will often leave messages signed as such at government classified crime scenes. \u00a0A side effect of constantly wearing the dastardly device includes deep inset eye sockets with totally demonic black eyes that glow green when shape-shifting. He also lost his eyebrows and for reasons unknown paints on pointed ones with a black magic marker. \u00a0He writes notes on the doors of crime scenes with it, and also draws a mustache, and goatee on himself. \u00a0Clearly, he is suffering from a deep Slenderman psychosis yet the talisman prevents the eventual usual death from said paranormal psychosis. Simply put he is quite nuts and beyond dangerous!<\/p>\n<h3>The Door Man Still Walks Among Us Savagely Sacrificing Innocent Individuals!<\/h3>\n<p>The Door Man has now been on the loose instilling terror in the hearts of the weak-willed for several years now! \u00a0The government and supernatural crime fighters are actively seeking the whereabouts of this sick paranormal puppy! If you have any information that can lead to his capture then don&#8217;t hesitate to contact your nearest paranormal experts or <a href=\"http:\/\/mysticinvestigations.com\">Mystic Investigations<\/a>! If you notice any of your doors out of place please run out of the house immediately and call the police. Even if it turns out nobody was in there you have no way of knowing if he was?
