In the newest post, these are the bolded letters of the message on the ceiling:

ESORUTEMSHYIA

I haven't found any meaningful anagrams of it yet.


Combine it with the other capitals from the previous message?

The game's changed....
I'm loving the PM this time, this is one of the best slendy-ARG's I've ever played. (Other than MH, of course.)

Anytime a new ARG is found, I always have that little worry at the back of my head, "What if this is real? What if these people are seriously being stalked by Him? And we're treating it like a game..." And then I push it out of my mind, because that's ridiculous. Right?


...right?

Reminds me of Ender's Game ...

... because the kid figured out that he wasn't playing a game at all, but was actually controlling people in a war.

I've wondered if a detective in this situation could actually figure out crimes by putting them on a blog as fiction.

Oh, and I would be amused if, in this story, the bad guy turned out to be someone pretending to be slenderman, just for variety's sake. Or is maybe just crazy.

Like maybe they'll find Eric all wacked out on Meth, wearing a mask and dancing on the burning bodies of his victims. Zeke lights his cigarette and says to to Lizzy, "see, there are no ghosts."

But just beyond the tree line, a tall, thin shadow watches.

New update, although nothing really new since Detective Eric disappeared. I think the author wants the audience to participate in the story:

Oh, did anyone figure out this frigging anagram yet? I'm horrible with these things, I must have tried five different ways and I'm still not getting any clear sentences. Let me know.

Okay okay I didn't have time to look through all 8 pages, but I just noticed something...probably just irrelevant but...And I hope no one else has pointed this out...

Okay, so the main character's name is Strahm right? Me, being a huge Saw fan, immediately thought of Saw, which has a character named Strahm.

PLUS, the blog is named OpenTheDoorAndYouWillFindMe...which is a quote from Saw, though I'm sure it's from other things as well.

I just noticed the Saw-love in the blog, hehe. Maybe the blogger is just a big Saw fan. XD

I haven't watched any of the Saw movies... if that's the case, maybe you can help us figure out that latest anagram that's in the most recent post? It might be a word scramble of a quote or something!

It got a little more crazy for Zeke.

As soon as you mentioned 'strahm' I noticed that his name was scrambled into it. Take those letters out and the rest were very easy to solve. ^_^

Hey guys. So, I'm the one that posted up the solved anagram in the comments of the new post. Since then, I decided to dig deeper into the previous anagrams to see if there was anything solvable. Found one very interestingly hidden tidbit, but the way to get to it is twisty and I'm unsure of how to relay the info to Strahm...

Here's how I got there...

Writing on Eric's Ceiling that was NOT blood (non-bolded, not part of the I SEE YOU message)...

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
OWHEINRYOUTEOPINKNGHOOFIIXNEPRECUFIXUNEGHELLETOUSEPRWEENNERLVG



And these are the capitalized letters from the journal posted in March...

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
OEWHESOINRYOUTREUOPINKNGHOOFIIXNEPRMECUFIXSVNEGHHELLETYOUSEPRWEEENNERLVGA


Notice any similarities? Using the ceiling as a filter (and ignoring a u/v, which I chocked up to a purposeful misreading by Strahm in the ceiling message), you get...

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
ESOREMSYAH


Which translates too...

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
HE SAYS MORE


Brilliant puzzle, IMO. However, I have no idea what it means and I'm a bit weary of overloading Zeke with all this since he's a bit of a loose cannon character Razz. Any thoughts if I should just go ahead? And how in the world should I put this? "Hey, here's more totally contrived wackiness, dude! *thumbs up*" Razz

Anyways, currently trying to find whatever else I can since I'm on a roll...

Seems to me as though the PM's were hoping that someone would solve that! I'd say, just word it how you did to us and let him do with it what he will! Great work, Kaleesh!
