Get the Operation Sound Off mug.The Operator is the main antagonist from the Marble Hornets series. He is very similar yet different when compared to the Slenderman. It is still a question to whether "The Operator" is just another name for the Slenderman. The Operator is believed to have different abilities than the Slenderman. The Operator is able to wipe people's memories from an extended period of time and can also mess with cameras when he is in their proximity. The Slenderman and The Operator, although very similar, are most likely two seperate states of mind. They may inhabit the same body, but they are two seperate minds.
