I just wanted to bring something to everyone's attention: In the HABIT's tweet last night, he told us that there were 231 of us, correct?

There were only 225 people on the EMail list.

If we discount Ryan, and #s 151, 152, and 153, that STILL leaves 227 people.

...we're missing 2 people from the mailing list.


More credit to the theory that E, V, & J are sharing the EMH email.

But then why bother to have the cell phone in the Rake's crawlspace/closet?
I see no reason that the Rake has to be serving anyone, Occam's razor, why have the third HABIT when the Rake could just be HABIT? Also then, why would the Rake serve HABIT in the first place? I feel like he has more motivation if he was HABITevan rather than serving HABITevan.


I have a few issues with the Rake = HABIT theory. First, the Rake doesn't seem to fit, personality-wise, with what we've seen of HABIT. HABIT is quite human, that's what makes it stand out among the other antagonists. The Rake seems like a feral beast, capable of some speech, but not of creating a Twitter account and managing a 200+ person online tournament.

Second, if the Rake and HABIT are the same, then what the hell is up with Evan in the latest video? Who's talking there? I think it makes the most sense for Evan to have a second personality (or have been possessed by something) called HABIT. What we saw of Crazy!Evan talking in the kitchen and what we've seen in HABIT's e-mails and tweets seem to match up more closely in terms of personality and tone.

There's flaws with both theories, I think. We need more information about... a lot of things, really. I still wish there were a way to get the entire cast in a room and have them share info. I think Damsel and Jeff, in particular, know things that they aren't talking about yet.


Of course there are flaws, we don't have much to go with. I'm speaking specifically about Fairmount HABITevan being the Rake. Who seems seriously feral. I also think we're not giving the Rake much credit, if only because we don't see much. (He also seem intellegent but feral in the original mythos as well). I think that twitter/SEVENTRIALS of HABIT, while intellegent, is also seriously feral.

I think that Evan was talking to Slenderman in that video (think the Slenderman OOG(?) video.)

I know I don't have much, but I am CONVINCED that the Rake is Fairmount Evan.



I agree that Crazy!Evan was negotiating with Slendy in Ryan & STOH. (Which leads to all kinds of other interesting epileptic trees, but they are presently neither here nor there.)

I think we're running into a difference of opinion/theory because you're drawing a distinction between Fairmount!Evan and HABIT. (I think. Correct me if I'm wrong!) Whereas I see them as the same person, unlike EMH!Evan and HABIT, who appear to be two distinct personalities.

The more I think about it, the more I think I like the "HABIT possession" theory. Unless it turns out that time travel and/or multiple dimensions are involved, and the Fairmount kids are the same as the EMH crew, in which case possession is not necessary.

Dixie post + discrediting the thought of there being a surplus of unknowns numbers that could be killed off without people knowing who they were.

I'm not sure what HABIT's deal is, so for now I'm separating it, but I'm really not sure...

Sorry about that, but I've had this theory for months now.

Don't jinx me!
I'd like to think HABIT likes me, since he went through all the trouble of the VII letter (at least I'm assuming it was him, since he acknowledged it). But I know I'm just deluding myself. HABIT doesn't like anyone. Sad

Corenthal said something to the effect that each child had its own "demons", more or less feral, right? What if HABIT is what allows those children's "demons" to become real?

Would that mean we are dealing with essentially 4/5 antagonist in the end?
The four children+Habit unless he's one of the bad demons.


As many antagonists as those children can come up with, technically . If we start on the assumption HABIT is "making" those monsters, I think we can say that it's also controlling them, so the other monsters are more like weapons than actual antagonists, maybe? HABIT possess children that are already in difficult situations (abused in Vince's case, probably sociopathic in Evan's) and used them as vessels? means? something? to create monsters because... because. Hey, this probably makes sense in another dimension. Still, it would explain why the word HABIT recours so much and why Corenthal was so obsessed with it.

I don't think HABIT is feral. Beside being able to use Twitter, it also has a very "human" sense of humor - yeah, black humor, but still, it comes off more as an unhinged, probably insane person with an agenda than as a downright unhuman monster to me.

Those other unsigned tweets, on the other hand... those sounded like some weird cryptic shit that would make sense to something that has thought pattern radically different from a human's. But I like my rabbits jumpy and my trees strictly epyleptic so take this with a grain of salt.

For a more serious theory, if you listen to Evan's rant to the presence of Slenderman, he talks about how he got Slenderman these people/little fishes/rabbits. Now whether that means the EMH boys or us is a matter for another time, but I will state this:

HABIT's role is to mark people for Slenderman, so he can get to them. That simple. Sure there will be more to it, but thats the solid foundation to it, and I'm sticking to it.

Edit: Which in turn means Slenderman is still the overall boss. But HABIT has enough, or thinks he has enough, influence on him to be like, say, a jr. partner.

Psh, don't apologize. I have huge documents of epileptic trees hanging out in my signature. What is this place if not a forest of the damn things?

(oh shit forests = slendy WE'RE ALL SCREWED)

I got the impression from Corenthal's letters that Evan/Vince/Jeff/[redacted] all had the same demon-- Slenderman. And Linnie had the feral demon, ie the Rake.

Then again, HABIT as a "your mind makes it real" reality-warper type thing is a really interesting idea.

I think I'm beginning to understand how fans of Lost felt. The number of plotlines, characters, and weird theories is making my brain hurt.

That thought somewhat crossed my mind too - like if Habit is like that kid from the twilight zone episode who can create anything he wants/thinks of, so everyone lives to serve him out of fear - except also a psycopath. That could even explain the time discontinuity problems - he made our current reality because he was bored or something (after candle cove was taken off the air, there was nothing good to watch)


And I'm also kind of bitter that I'm not a numbered rabbit...guess I'm not worthy of being tormented

Agree 100% with this theory.
