[TRAILHEAD] The Deep Sleep Initiative
Dreamers Often Lie

I found a very argish looking blog during a web search for another arg. Looking a little deeper, I think I found a new trailhead. Very Happy

www.dreamersoftenlie.com
Solving the jigsaw puzzle lets you download the dream journal.
Quote:
Have you ever wanted to see the dreams of others?

The journal can show you.

Christian Santiago is missing. His disappearance is shrowded in mystery and deceit.

If you want to help, the journal is the key.


Get it here.

Nice work and thanks for getting this started Lysithea. This looks quite fascinating so I'm off to listen to the audio and continue reading. Very Happy

This looks really interesting. Thanks Lysithea.

After reading the journal, I....
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

went to the survey form and put dreaming of butterflies as my only symptom, and I received Cassandra Morgan's employee login via email.


A little worried about all the broken links. :/


Edit: after some digging, i decided to write this:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Ms Viscetti,
I came upon your website after finding a journal or lab notebook. I understand you were once a patient at the Oakland Institute of Sleep Disorders in Pittsburgh, PA. I think this was 2005. Were you a patient of Dr. Ethan Corrigan? Perhaps you know Dr. Morgan, or were once her patient? This is a rather serious matter I'm afraid, and whatever assistance you could provide would be wonderful. I fear for the safety of at least one child, but this might be a danger for all us who dream when we sleep.
Please respond, if for no other reason than to assure me of your own safety and the safety of your children. You have a son named Christian, no?


let's see if i get an answer.

Also:
-- only 4 patient audio files seem to work.
-- jobsSPLAToaklandinstitute.com doesn't work.
-- CMorganSPLATOaklandInstitute.com doesn't work.

Okay, I've finally managed to complete that stupid jigsaw puzzle in the time alotted (just for reference, they've decompilation-proofed their SWF files Sad), and then the completed puzzle faded away and was replaced by an "enter" button, which I clicked and was then taken to http://www.dreamersoftenlie.com/1-4-52.php (screenshots attached).

Was looking through things and checked out Evangelina's website and found something interesting.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Saw an 'advertisement' on the side of it involving clicking butterlies. Once all are clicked, hex pops up, which converts into:

i want to go home now. are you my home? sometimes i see it but then it melts or burns or changes. i played in the big sandbox all day but you never come. you dont like me???i like you. you smell like my mommy.

I'm having a look at the bit on page 8 of the journal that has all been crossed out, no luck yet :/

EDIT: can't make anything out at all, maybe someone with better photoshop skills can but it's probably not important anyway looks like a dream/poem description from the few words that I can guess
