Actually, a Tulpa is not created through a large number of people, but rather one person or a small group. When it was used it the Slender Man Mythos, it was used as, like, "Everyone is spreading around and believing in these stories of this faceless man, so now he's real." So because everyone believed in him, he was real (which isn't actually what a Tulpa is, but whatever). And they were all imagining him looking like that because people had written about him looking like that.

The Fear Embodiment Theory, on the other hand, looks like it's "Because a lot of people fear this thing, now it has a form."
