I tried to compare the heights of Tim and Brian to J by roughly looking through the tapes again. Granted it's not concrete but Tim and Brian are roughly the right height for Masky. I think Brian is the more likely candidate due to Masky's build. Also J mentioned at the beginning of one of the entries that he's recieved and anonymous tip as to where Brian was......shouldn't he have shouted Brian instead of Alex when he saw Masky?

In the tapes, it appears this is the house that Alex has spent most of his time diddling away at. He was originally looking for Alex when he first got the tip of where to find and interview Brian. Brian and Alex had apparently become close friends, and may have even lived together in this house.

OR, HERE'S SOMETHING:

Just thought of this. Right, so, this is a slight stretch, but maybe it's something J hoped we'd have assumed by now and placed in the plot. Maybe Alex/TTA/Slender Man somehow found out where Brian was before J did, and maybe... The day before J shows up, let's say?... They show up, and take Brian. Drag him into the upstairs locked room, submit him to super-Slendy-torture. 30 minutes underneath a bucket of ice water with a pinprick hole in the base would give someone permanent mental issues. Imagine what Slender Man could do to you for 24 hours.

Now, that brings up one question: Why won't Slender Man just kill J off?

Simple.

The Entries.

Perhaps Slendy is a creature of motive after all. And one of great intellect, as well. Slender Man can't just outright kill the poor bastard... Otherwise, there will be permanent proof as to his existence.

Instead... He needs his children to do it. Alex and Brian, or even Tim, or strange Camera Guy we never see. Even Sarah. They need to pretend to be Slender Man, kill J, and die along with him. Both bodies are found, autopsies reveal J killed his assailant at the same time the assailant killed J... And Slender Man is free to haunt our memories, the dark corners of our minds, taking as he pleases with no one left to stand in his way.

That's a pretty nice theory, but the Entries are proof to his existence. Looking at the Entries and the SM "imposter" would easily show you the huge difference between Slendy and whoever he hypnotised. Height is probably the biggest clue (no pun intended), as well as the fact that Slender Man wears a suit and has no face. His "children", as you so delightfully put it, are shorter, wearing more casual clothing and a mask which only slightly resembles SM. Good thought though.

Not something the Police would investigate too thoroughly.

Could make sense the one thing that seems to stick with Slender Man Mythos in general is the more you know the easier he can get you. It also ties into the "Silent Snow" motive about a building obsession taking you over. Further it can make TTA be a person trying to stop J from posting things because of how dangerous what he's doing is. If J is inadvertently spreading the SM Gospel that's just more "victims" for Slendy in the long run, and TTA maybe trying to stop him (J).

I don't think Tim and Masky are the same person. Tim's face is too "long" for the mask in question IMO. Check this out and make up your own minds:

It's all well and good to speculate, but we'll find out who TTA and MaskyPerson are when the PM's want us to.

I'm starting to agree that this is more a complex web series than an actual ARG.

Not that that's a bad thing. This is hands down one of the most engrossing stories I've followed all year. Two (slender) thumbs up.

Avatar fits perfectly. Someone draw a picture of SM with his thumbs up pl0x. With the caption "Slender Man approves."

Couldn't be bothered captioning it.
Or putting any effort in at all, really.

Forgive me if this has been covered already, but I watched the entry again and noticed something odd.

I know there was some speculation as to whether J was dragged, Mask Man was saving him etc., but watching it again, after J collapsed and you saw Masky seizing on the floor, it almost looks like he's being pulled around the corner by his right leg.

Perhaps that muffled "No!" when J went to take the mask off could have been a response to feeling Slenderman grabbing his leg?

Also, we all seem to be focusing closely on the fight, should we possibly comb over everything leading up to it harder? Other than the doll, you guys tore that apart more or less.

By which I mean Mask Man. Sorry, should've made it clearer.
