I think they want to prevent a situation wherein the 1-hour photo shop calls the cops on some unknowing ARG player.

EDIT: woah, weird psuedo-nostalgia moment. Remember when we had to wait to get pictures developed before we could see them? Crazy.

So we've all seen the Habit Is The Rake theory that's been floating around. Like a lot of other people, I find it very compelling. That being said, I've got some thoughts about his beginnings. What if Habit is someone who was stalked as a child by Slendy/had his family killed by Slendy? And it doing so, it drove him pretty crazy (a la masky). So basically, the Rake is being stalked by Slendy too. That also explains why the children's hospital burned down: think of Jay's apartment in MH or the library in the original Slender Man myth. Fires follow Slendy, and they especially follow his victims. Habit being stalked as a child also fits in to the whole idea that Slender Man targets primarily children - another nugget from the original myth.


I was thinking about this, but if Habit/Rake is being stalked by Slendy, why did it kill the woman in the high school? It seemed pretty clear (at least, from what we have now) that she was looking for help from the EMH trio at defeating Slendy. I do agree that Habit is The Rake, but I feel it's much more likely that Habit is a meatpuppet controlled by Slendy.

There's the theory, though, of the Evan Hybrid- that Habit had a split personality, and part of it became the Rake and part of it became the Evan we know now through some Slendy mind transference. Maybe there's even a third part out there? It seems to me like we still don't know all the players.

Edit: Or, what if Evan/HABIT was being possessed by The Rake, but his mind found a way to fight back or escape into the Evan we know today? That would explain why Slendy and The Rake are hunting him down. Of course, mind transference is a bit of a leap- but so is time travel.

In all honesty, I don't think any photoshop guy would call the cops because of Slendy stalking some of the pictures. Think of the things art students do and all that. Personally, I would love it.

Still do that my friend. Wink the downside is that most good photo labs are expansive as shit.

Big time stuff happening. Weird tweets. Weird letters. And we haven't even had the story threads for Damsel and Alex pulled yet.

I'll remind everyone, in WttA, when the Rake appears, I clearly heard it whispering "habit." This seems relevant considering Dr. Corenthal's note of hearing whispers when he sleeps. Also seems relevant for Alex.

So lets see. Theories/possibilities. Evan could be Evan's last name. Evan could be ADOPTED, and his adopted parents could have taken his last name and made it his first name.
In a world where Slenderman exists and haunts people, and apparently be attacked/hit by a car, I see no reason why someone couldn't become a monster. Yes, I'm suggesting Habit is the Rake, and that Habit is related to Evan. Older biological brother. A connection between Habit/Rake and Slendy still isn't obvious, but it is intriguing.

That tweet, to me, supports the notion that Habit isn't a person, but multiple people, and/or multiple Rake monsters. After all, they saw one pretty far from where they live, but Alex is being haunted.

Gah! Who knows whats going on? It's so fun and intriguing.

I'm unclear, was the code figured out? What does it actually say when you switch the letters?

I'm pretty sure the Rake is just one monster. He spotted the HYBRID crew, and knows they spotted him, so he probably followed them home and is now residing in the crawlspace behind Alex's closet for the time being. I don't think it's personally hunting Alex, he's just staying around Alex and as such Alex is feeling the effects of it's presence.

It looks to me like it's divided into teams. We have Slendy and the "feral Other" (The Rake) on one side, and Damsel and the body (both of who have fought Slendy) on the other side. In the middle we have the EMH trio and Evan. Does this imply that HABIT, Fairmount-Evan, and Trusted-Evan are different beings? Or that they're some manifestation of the same being?

We can sorta get this: Faimount-Evan was the patient, Trusted-Evan is, well, Evan, and HABIT somehow ties them together. The question is, what does HABIT want?

What if Evan is some sort of hybrid person -- the combination of himself and some sort of past life?

Just an out-there thought, since we're growing epileptic forests.

So clearly from that image the guys are not directly associating Evan of the Children's Home with Evan... though calling him "Trusted" Evan might be a bit of a stretch frankly...

Just rewatched . -

Jeff: Wanted to talk to Dr. Corenthal about some friends of mine who may have been former patients of his...

Cuts to Evan, looking through a notebook filled with pictures...
