[TRAILHEAD] Helleborus Diaries
Slender Man video ARG with a female main character

Hey there,
found this on Youtube. Follow the story of Veronica:


https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCy8V0siCOu03C6HIBNWWaUg/videos

It began as a blog about meanings behind plant names and little facts about plants.

I have been dying for a new horror series to watch for weeks now. I don't even care about slender man I just want something interesting. I'll check it out.

Things to note:
This series is based around plants, I don't think I've seen that before.
The story escalates quickly and smoothly
First video: Her telling why she made the channel/Nature walk
Second video: Her finding a non-indigenous flower and bring it home.
Third video: Her researching and examining the root/tuber of the plant,
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
before she has some sort of fit and bits the head of it.

Fourth video: Proxy message? or maybe its from slenderman or someone else. (this is not a confirmed slenderseries, it may be something completely different.)
I think this is very interesting, and I'll keep my eye on this. Rate 3/5

Edit: There was a tinychat going on with The Florist(called F in the chat) so I asked some questions:

Me: Where is Veronica?
F: Lund's Gulch
Me: Where are you from
F: I'm From a Place
Me: Is this place far?
F: It's a Place
Me:Who is Veronica?
F:Veronica our dear little flower
Me: Why is she a flower?
F: Dear Veronica has gotten herself into quite the mess
Me: Why is she important?
F:She is the whole reason we are here friends
Me: Do you know her?
F: I saw her situation and took pity on the poor thing

That everything I got to ask, "F" gave me the cold shoulder after that and left the tinychat

Hmmm, I'm going to keep an eye out for this to see where it goes. The latest video's music I think is silent hill or horror music in reverse that I remember listening to a while ago--It's pretty cool. And for some reason when clicking on the link the girl in the thumbnails looked a lot like Ellie from OnehundredYardStare so I thought it was a new series with the same person.

But this may be interesting...

edit in: I agree with you Kaliel!!

Well enjoying the series so far. As someone else said plants are different and the idea of bringing more nature into a horror narrative with evil plants is interesting.

Random notes from the last video just to list them for posterity in case this is important later.

The tinychat below lists Veronica as being in Lund's Gulch, which is a real nature park/trail near Seattle.

There's a flash of a lat/long in the video near the end right after it says 'find me' of 47.859043 -122.335162. This point looks like it's on the beach right outside of Lund's Gulch.

Fallenseven : That's funny because OneHunderYardStare is one of my favorite series and I thought the exact same thing when I saw the thumbnail.

Overall, I'd say it's worth checking out so far.

New Video: https://youtu.be/nW17TA6Rrkw -----What happened??? Okay, I'm a little confused on how she did this. I was subscribed to Helleborus Diaries and yet it took me to a different youtube channel of Brooke Butler....

and when i clicked, "go here" it took me to Helleborus Diaries--- Confused

edit in...ohhhh okay, nm,,,she renamed her channel and made a new helleborus diaries channel and put all her videos onto that for some reason..sneaky

Just rambling

Dude, I just came up with the coolest villain/antagonist for this series....Mr. Bloom...yes I know, it's DC comic book villain but DAMN does it remind me of slenderman and he looks sweet as shit...especially for this series since he has a flower on his face and his name Mr. Bloom...but anyhow that's my ramble for the day Smile
