Level 26: Dark Prophecy Packages
formerly DreadCentral Package - Austrian News and Falls Church VA

http://www.dreadcentral.com/news/39925/another-strange-package-arrives-mail-what-can-you-tell-us

Not sure what to make of this, but seems like it could be ARGish. Found via @argworld.

if you read the comments someone said
Quote:
Try this: I switched the capitalization on some of the letters and I got this link: http://bit.ly/cX2eVn Something to do with fortune telling. Looks like it connects to the Tarot card?


not sure if that has any merit to it, but its interesting that it links to a "fortune telling" article. Any ideas on why some things are in bold? Also wonder about the long/lat posted on it. (aside from telling you it's in Virginia, cuz it looks like they blacked that part out)

Well I'm not sure about the 'fortune telling' articles merit and I'm curious about the bold words as well. The long/lat, which leads to a church falls virginia. I'm also curious who has the other 9 tarot cards.

IF the other 9 cards were sent out I wonder if the receivers will even make a note of them?? Hopefully they do and it helps solve the mystery. I'm going to look over the bold type again but not tonight... I think my brain is officially fried for the night, so I'll start fresh tomorrow!

this is framiliar

No Idea what it is but It seems similar to the TrueBlood ARG/Viral campaign
where they sent packages to like 4 or so horror writers and or site webmasters. Without any clues just letters written in foreign languages.

If DC got the actual card Id like to know if anythimg was printed on the back of it, and if the package had any markings.

also TCK that seems to be relevant to this mystery.

EDIT:those Lat and Long coordinates were the location of the Falls church.

Update thanks to digging through for Level 26 details:

There are presumably 10 sites involved in getting messages, including SuicideGirls and CSIFiles.com

according to the site, they shot about 55 min of film and broke it down into 11 cyberbridges, but according to the releases of the videos he is releasing the first 10 each day (starting on Oct. 4th I believe Mon-Friday). That leaves the 11th one with no definite day of release, unless there is a code to unlock it. BUT i was thinking maybe there was clues in these packages to finding it or something. I could be wrong, its hard to tell what he has. I haven't been able to find the last cards out there either!

In a tarot Celtic cross, i believe there are 10 cards placed down. That would mean there are 10 cards possibly going out to ppl and that would make sense on there being 10 cyberbridges but when I mentioned the fact that he said 11, he said that 11 was correct!

if the filming they're talking about was for the book, then yes there are codes.

In a traditional Cross spread reading
The first card placed down is covered by the second, with the saying
This covers him,
as in the following spread is linked to the person in the first card , usually called the singficator, the first card is a representation of the person whom the spread is about.
