I can't even make sense of that diagram, really. The big, bold "Him." as the only thing with punctuation and relevant capitalization also worries me.

I'm 90% sure that "Him." is the Slenderman.

Well, rabbits can have rabies.

Crazy theory: what if HABIT is some sort of infectious agent that alter's people's behaviour into becoming a Rake? That would explain the theory that there are multiple Rakes.

Ooh, I like this. Like, a lot. It actually makes sense, too, when applied to the latest tweets...

And I also love how this is fast becoming the go-to response when people express confusion. X-D

"Him." is almost definitely the Slender Man. But, and maybe this is just me, it's starting to feel like The Rake/"feral Other" is playing a bigger role in events than our old tall friend.

Apparently "the Other" is a philosophical concept, essentially something different within our concepts of ourselves as individuals or as a society which serve to define us as we often comprehend ourselves as a being in to an "other", whatever that other thing might be.

Usually, "the Other" is capitalized given its nature as a concept, and we find the same thing in that diagram. Perhaps the "feral Other" is the Other to Even/HABIT, the monstrous form manifested as the other side of the same coin. It would be why it's so concentrated on Evan, why it seems to try to communicate with him. The two are inseparable, permanently connected in some fashion that we don't yet understand.

How do we know The Rake/Habit/The Other is trying to communicate with Evan? The Rake showed up infront of Jeff and Vince, and then is hanging out in Alex's closet. Infact, the Rake seems to have the LEAST interaction with Evan. Also, the only connection we have between Evan and Habit is that the old patient had Evan somewhere in his name, but Jeff seems to think they're two separate people, so even that connection may be a red herring of sorts.

Well, this is going back to those two leaked videos. Evan was talking to something, and it was whispering back. The same thing happens in the second video when the Rake shows up, and begins whispering either "Evan" or "HABIT" (depends on your ears; I heard Evan, apparently others have heard HABIT). Then in the papers from Corenthal, he says he only hears the same verse: Rabbit or Habit. Now, this could just be his own (sub-)conscious not leaving him the hell alone, but it's also possible these were actual voices.

I say these could be actual voices because it seems similar to part of what's happened to Evan. Tramautic events followed by sleep deprivation followed by gradual mental delusion. So, in both instances we have essentially one link, that of the mysterious Habit, paired with a similar pattern of occurences.

And then, of course, there are the parallels between what Habit is said to have done, and what we've seen Evan attempt to do; that is, go bat-shit knife-crazy.

EDIT: Of course, it's also a very odd anachronism that a doctor in the early 70's would have a lyric of a song from 2004 in his head.

Spread by other Rakes?

That means Alex is infected... Crying or Very sad

This is probably grasping at straws, but is it possible the hidden tweet has some kind of code? To me there seemed to be a pattern, but that's probably just my imagination. =P

Thats...thats like a song. Like a nursery rhyme. Wonder if it fits with anything we've already heard, like the original EMH theme song. Still, it's nursery rhyme structure I'm sure has some meaning.

Also, I wanted to throw out my interpratation of the picture with the scratched out face and burned out chest.

I don't think it's meant to make an Operator symbol or obscure anything.

I think it's meant to represent that whoever is the subject of that picture has been hollowed out, as Slendy is known to do.

Kinda sounds like a children's rhyme or a song.
