There is no proof. There's no proof for anything in this series beyond SM is following some members of the crew of MH, because some of us are getting frustrated from waiting for an entry which answers a question solidly without raising five more-- shit, such an entry may never arrive. Hence, conjecture to ease the mind.

Although, I'm mostly in it to propose a sound theory, see it proved right in the final entry, and then get in a dick-measuring contest with the other players/lurkers.

This isn't an ARG, it's a webseries. If you want a serious, linear ARG with clues'n'such, you shoulda picked JAFool.

Anyway, thought occurred to me-- may be old idea, maybe not. So, Masky can sneak into Jay's room, Jay presumably keeps Alex's videos in his room. Mayhaps, for one reason or another, Masky has put some newer tapes into Jay's stack of old MH tapes. Mayhaps the tapes Jay can't remember are recent, filmed when Jay's "gone."

Although, that implies that TTA is not Masky, or TTA is Masky and MArk (Masky + Ark = MArk) is kinda not logical-- why place THE TAPE (Entry #22) somewhere not in Jay's place, why inconvenience oneself?

Haaaaah, conjecture.

You must have missed in the other thread when I said that it isn't an ARG. I already knew that.

All I'm saying is that when someone says there's undeniable proof, that shit better be airtight or it's not undeniable. Shit, we have proof the Holocaust happened, and people deny that.

Any way. It wasn't meant to be an e-peen measurement thing. I'm just saying that until there is proof of such claims beyond speculation, it's not undeniable.

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

I just had an interesting idea that I do not believe has been brought up before.

I was thinking about how SM entered the frame in "Return" from the area where the staircase is, and, for whatever reason, was wondering where he had been before that.

What if TTA, or some related entity, trapped SM in the locked room upstairs somehow? I don't think the idea of SM being trapped up until now has been discussed before, but what if, for instance, Alex trapped Slenderman upstairs in that room by some means, and Jay's posting of the entries has (for whatever reason) prompted his intentional release?

Oh, to tie it into the Return video, I was imagining Jay being brought to the house by TTA, told to wait at the bottom of the stairs, and TTA going upstairs to release SM. Then SM promptly goes downstairs, walks by Jay, and passes the camera (Which, perhaps, TTA left mounted there for documentation while he went elsewhere).

If this theory has any merit, why would TTA have brought Jay to SM? Perhaps this relates to theories others have proposed involving a "transfer" of SM to another person?

Slenderman being trapped in the room upstairs might explain why Masky attacked Jay, despite being on his side. To prevent him from opening the door. Then TTA would be the one who opens it in Return, assuming hes different from Masky. If this were the case though, don't you think we would see more of Slendy? If the only reason we didnt see him all this time is because he was trapped, upon his release he would probably return to his stalking. Seems unlikely to be true, but certainly a possibility and more likely than a lot of other stuff suggested.

Guys, I've looked at my theory many times, looking for something that could disprove it, but I can't, so it's disprovable, unless you guys have something I forgot about.

My theory is that Seth is masky.

Why? Because of two reasons.

One, at the end of 22's footage of the basement area we see a static-like face. Now look at the mask.
Link because the image is big.

They are very similar, now before the face appeared Seth was attacked.

We have no clue as to where Seth is, and Tim isn't the Masky in 18, his hair is clearly dirty blonde, while to my knowledge we have yet to see Seth at all, so he may have that kind of hair.

Tim is Masky in 19 though. It's pretty undeniable.


I stand by mine and other people's previous statements.

People can change a jacket.
People can shop at the same store.
People can have the same taste in clothing.

Give me cold hard proof that it's Tim. Something that's NOT speculation. Something that can be proved with actual evidence and not theorycrafting. Then it will be undeniable. Until then, it's just theory and speculation.
Also, your avatar is too big. >:­|

Mmmm new video. Different style than the others. New type of writing at the end may be significant but I have no clue what it could mean. Audio is creepy as always.

I'm having a hard time imagining Slender Man scratching helplessly at a paper-thin door for three years. It's kinda like Santa arriving on a roof, seeing the chimney blocked by a hrating and saying "well, screw it, those kids would get bland presents anyways". XD

Perhaps he was not trapped BY the room, but trapped in the room, by some other means? Encased in ten feet of concrete, for example.

Hello, Unfiction. I'm new here and etc. etc. This board seems to get new users frequently JUST for this thread, so I'm nothing new.

I thought I'd address something:

As odd as it may sound, I noticed Tim's ears right away in Entry 20 (or whichever Entry that was). He has distinctive earlobes that Masky has as well. Granted, that doesn't mean that Masky can share actors with another character (in this case, it's Tim), but assuming this isn't the case, I'd say a distinctive facial feature meany Masky = Tim. In addition, Masky (assuming it was Masky) stole the pills Jay found in the house. If it was Tim, maybe those pills were all he needed to prevent a seizure like Entry 18. But we can't really assume Masky and Tim don't share actors, so it's not unreasonable to believe that Masky is someone else.

Hmm. I guess that's not "cold hard proof"... eh. But that somewhat makes sense, right? Masky = Tim so he stole the pills so his condition didn't worsen. His seizure in Entry 18 could be attributed to the fact that he was missing his pills.

That's the best I can come up with at the moment. Thoughts?

Don't forget that he's wearing the same jacket in both of your pics, also. Haha.

That's like saying my car is the same as yours because we have the same paint job. Anyone can go into a store and buy the same jacket as me.

However, I'm not saying that the jacket is NOT Tim's, but rather, Tim may not be the one wearing the jacket [masquerading as Masky].

I didn't say anything other than that it was the same jacket, lol. I mean, let's face it. It's obviously identical and they are film students. They wouldn't have dressed Masky and Tim in the same jacket in two consecutive videos unless they wanted us to notice it (regardless of what it means). Otherwise it would be a very poor wardrobe choice. It could be Tim, it could be someone wearing his jacket like you suggested, we don't know for sure.

But you have to admit, the clues that point to it being Tim are overwhelming. So overwhelming, in fact, that if it didn't turn out to be him it would just be stupid at this point. Like they would be trying to throw us an M. Night twist or something.

Well, as the old adage goes: "If we speculate that Tim is Masky but it turns out that it was another guy in Tim's coat, we won't be blind-sided by a spine-jerking plot-twist."

Of course! I almost didn't notice that the first time I watched the Entries. However, the only reason I didn't bring it up is that it's been said numerous times throughout this thread. The ear thing hasn't been mentioned (at least, I haven't seen it).
