this is pretty cool, but I do feel like it's just like a short film project sort of thing to get interest, and it's not going to go anywhere big. just like a chopped-up Blair Witch Project.

If so, it looks like a human-like figure with his head half looking, but it could also be the shadow created by the blinds.

I really don't see something moving on it... but it could be. Let's give it the benefit of the doubt.


Well, look what happens when you sharpen the image manually


this just freaked me out.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
It seems like totheark could just be something he's done to say "Hey, you guys need to experiment with the audio more." I could imagine being in the position of making this, making clues, and then finding people aren't deciphering them so trying to push them more. If so, I don't think he realizes how cryptic it is. We'll see.

This really looks scary, and it does prove your point. He WAS there.

From upping the contrast and brightness, I'm fairly confident that slendy is standing outside of a window as Alex walks past.

All of these clothes theories are useless. I sleep in my clothes every night.

Also, I'm thinking this whole "Slendy can only be seen on camera" idea might be a possibility. Not sure how possible, but I'm interested in that becoming a part of it.

Though the shadow that is seen passing by at the end (which creeped me the fuck out by the way) kind of dispels that idea since I do believe unless discovered otherwise, I think that may have been Slender man.

I think he was actually already inside.

I sleep in my clothes as well and I still believe the theory. In fact, I'm one of the guys who pointed it too.

There is a point on why he was wearing clothes. We all know this is a game and every piece of bit of info and clues shown on the video, is a hint to solve the game.

So there should be a reason as to why he was dressed while sleeping and why he got up so suddenly. And unless proven otherwise, there's the possibility of him doing so in order to run away if being chased. We can't just diss anything up at this point.

It didn't seem to me he was sleeping, actually. He got up too fast and was too "fresh", I'd say he probably couldn't sleep..

Eh, I'm inclined to disagree, because I mean look at it, you can see the blinds of the window curtain go over the Slender Man, which they could only do if he was outside.

I agree, watching it again it seems like he's outside. The blinds do seem to be going over him.

Woah... that's some awesome analysis, guys. The "Operator" written on the wall is... intriguing, on a slightly terrifying level. We knew that totheark has some connection to Slender Man, but this just makes me even more intent on finding out who is behind totheark.

Now, regarding the location of the Slender Man in Entry 11: I agree with Aladar--it looks very much like the Slender Man was already inside the house, both because of the awesomely creepy enhanced shot and because of the shadow that moves over Alex at the end. Plus--I doubt Alex would have missed seeing Slender Man were he looking for him outside, especially considering the blatant shadow at the end, which is implying that the Slender Man was inside already. (Plus, he wouldn't have noticed something that occurred while he was trying to sleep, especially since the Slender Man is silent)

Regarding Alex sleeping (or not) in his clothes: Sleeping in full dress seems very strange, as a general rule, but Aladar has a good point--he didn't seem to be deeply asleep, if he was asleep at all. Insomnia is very likely for someone like him who was plagued by a tormentor akin to the Slender Man.

Now, to debate whether or not Slender Man can be seen by one's naked eye. I understand that Kiriyama is convinced that he cannot be seen except via a digital medium. I, likewise, an equally convinced that he can. For one, how would he have spotted Slender Man in the first place, to incite fear within Alex? For another, I still haven't figured out what it was that Alex saw in Entry 7 that freaked him out--presumably he saw something out of the camera frame. And finally, why would Alex have the camera trained on himself all the time, if he could not see the Slender Man with his own eyes? Why not then always have a camera in hand, using it as a lens to make sure Slender Man is not right there before you? It seems much more that he wants an extra set of eyes to be watching his back, or in case something happens to him--that a record exists.

And when he was out in the woods in Entry 10, do you honestly think he was paying enough attention to the camera to see the Slender Man the first time that he spotted him in the bushes? *I* didn't even see the Slender Man that time until someone pointed him out to me. You can always see things better in real life than on a screen, so it is much more sensible that he saw the Slender Man, freaked, and bolted.

When I get back, I'll see if I can help look over those drawings over Alex's bed.

Entry #7, watch it again and when he finishes his lines and rests his head back look at the back centre. That's what freaked him out. The general rule of thumb is that paranormal beings can't be seen without a digital aid. That's what most people go by, that's what i'm going to go by. I don't think slender man is trying to "take him" I think he's trying to use him for another purpose. Slender mans background was to go after children, not adults.

Either way, i'd be running LOL.

edit; thanks for pointing out entry#7 =P

i thought slender was outside the house to start with but if you look at the video on 42 seconds it shows alex looking out the window but he looks towards a window with the lights on and you can see slendermans shadow on the curtains
