***EverymanHYBRID*** (often abbreviated to **EMH**) is a YouTube Alternate Reality Game (ARG) web series based on the Slender Man online mythos. It is considered the third most popular Slender Man-based ARG/ARE series after *Marble Hornets* and *TribeTwelve*, the former of which it takes initial inspiration from but the series has since deviated from the Slender Man mythos to take its own course. It is known for the heaviest use of fan interaction compared to other Slenderverse ARG series, most notably through its interactive in-universe game "THE SEVEN TRIALS OF HABIT", and is notable for crossovers and multiple references to other Slenderverse series and Slenderblogs.

The channel, initially appearing as a health vlog series, uploaded its first video, "EverymanHYBRID #1 - Introduction", on March 21, 2010. As with similar ARG/ARE series, the videos are uploaded sporadically with no set schedule to accommodate the 'alternate reality experience'. The initial format was in the form of "episodes", of which there were seven of them, but it soon deviated to unnumbered videos detailing the protagonists' encounters with the supernatural, including Slender Man, the Rake, and the malevolent entity HABIT, who is an original character created for the EMH series.

As of January 2019, the series consists of 84 videos, including 7 "episodes" from their initial health vlog series, 57 unnumbered entries, 6 "hidden" videos (which were assumed to have been uploaded by HABIT), 9 accompanying videos and 2 crossover videos with other Slenderverse series. The series concluded on January 1, 2019, with a final video titled "Introductions".

## Trivia

* *EverymanHYBRID* is part of 'Big Three', otherwise known as the three most popular Slender Man ARG series, alongside *Marble Hornets* and *TribeTwelve*.
	+ It is the second series of the three to have concluded, the first being *Marble Hornets* on June 20, 2014, while *TribeTwelve* is still an ongoing series.
	+ Subsequently, EMH is also part of the 'Top Five' Slender Man ARGs, which also includes *DarkHarvest00* and *MLAndersen0.*
* It is confirmed to be sharing a canon in-game universe with *TribeTwelve* and *MLAndersen0.*
	+ Through *TribeTwelve*, it can be assumed that it also shares a canon universe with *DarkHarvest00*.
* It is arguably the series that has done the most crossovers with other ARGs, either to confirm a canonical shared universe or mere cameos and mentions, including but not limited to characters from *TribeTwelve*, *DarkHarvest00*, *MLAndersen0*, *TJA Projects*, *Stan Frederick* and *Whispered Faith*,and has made several references to Slenderblogs.
	+ Most notably, it is the only series known thus far to feature a minor cameo from a main cast member of *Marble Hornets*, which many consider to have popularized the genre, but is noticeably disconnected from the other Slenderverse series. However, because Sutton portrayed a different character in EMH than in MH, this confirms that *Marble Hornets* does not share a canonical universe with *EverymanHYBRID*, despite the latter having made multiple references to the former.
