The answer to this:

I know SSHE recommends almost never to slowplay, but I was wondering if this were one of the times when it was called for.

Should be pretty obvious.

Seriously....bet the flop, bet the turn, and bet the river. Every single one of those streets featured a pretty little scare card that the maniac would just love to represent, and none of which you need to fear. Especially on the flop, which would be decidedly unfrightening to the other players if you led out on.

Slowplaying is rarely correct. I will go so far as to say that it is never correct when you've got an established maniac in the pot.
