Alright, my thoughts upon waking up (thank you, guys, for waiting until I was in bed so I wouldn't be up all night), and apologies if these have been touched upon already-

First of all, Jay, brother, that is NOT how you act around a lady. Invite her in, offer to make her dinner, talk with her for a while. Don't go for the win, not on the first date, but being courteous and nice will open the venue for future dates. And for God's sakes, don't wake her up with a camera to the face, especially when she just finished with Slender sex.

I know it's been a rough eighteen months for you, but Jesus, man.

Anywhoo, Ms. Cutie (which is what I will call her, because...y'know) is unfortunately showing off distortion, but...I dunno. I'm going on a limb and thinking her troubles are more Totheark related. Just a vibe I'm getting. Could be wrong.

So, it seems to me that folks are missing a rather obvious problem/mystery/blibbyblahwhatever here. That being, why the Crap would Jessica's audio distortion start NOW? I mean, we clearly didn't get anything in either of the earlier times she showed up, right? To me, that means something must have changed in game, as I really hope they're not just THAT lazy to not even address the obvious plot hole here otherwise. However, since we know so little about Jessica, we can't really say Exactly what that might be.
It could be that she's "waking up" if the OMGAH SHE'S BEEN WITH J THIS WHOLE TIME theorists are to be believed, and remembering what occured in those seven months, which might explain why she's taking even more of an interest in Jay, Clearly waiting in the hall to talk to him and all that junk, trying to gauge what he remembers.
OR, it could be that these cha-cha-cha-cha-changes have been brought on by Jay's entry of the noentry video, as that's the only really big in game event that's happened recently that we know of. How, you might ask? Well, what if it got someone's attention? Someone/thing who didn't want it posted? (noentry, remember). This could be Masky, Slendy, or ToTheArk itself, all of which Could be said to be connected to the slendysickness. But I would guess that we'll have to wait till the next entry before anything even slightly definite might be found.

Alsoalso, I really don't think trying to make out Jessica's phone conversation when Jay is walking up is worthwhile, as I Really doubt she was even talking with anyone to begin with. To me, the way she was standing OUTSIDE her hotel room to have this conversation and it ended EXACTLY as Jay was walking up all point to it being faked.


It could be her distortion is starting now because it's in the beginning stages of it. Like everyone's pointing out, she's showing signs of "Slender Sickness", showing similar signs and symptoms that Tim was, it just hasn't been going on long enough.

Anyone else notice that Jay left his side door unlocked? How courteous.

I'm new so I may be repeating an old theory, but does anyone else think that blood could have been Alex's? Perhaps J became a TTA-like figure during his 7 month blackout and killed him?

Also, are there any theories on slenderman/TTA"s motives? They don't seem to want anyone dead (well, except for one unknown blood splatter) but they've had plenty of chances to kill both Alex and J.

Oh, and any theories on the blood in the bathroom back at the house? And the missing bullet casing?

Here's that Slendershadow image with the levels changed (which I find clearer than simply boosting brightness because this lets you see a slightly darker/lighter object in the general darkness)

There seems to be a shape there that could be something; but I doubt that we can really see anything in that room.

Slenderman supposedly bloodied Alex up in an entry, I forget which. It's possible it wasn't him but Occam's razor means it was.

The Bullet Casing is probably the most notorious red herring in the entire first season, unless it comes back as some ridiculous Chekhov's gun or something.

I assume she knows something because of how she behaves when speaking to Jay, exercising all the subtlty he doesn't. She's been careful about it, but she does ask him why he's there, what he's doing with the camera, but in turn gets immeadiatly uncomfortable when he reasons for leaving home are mentioned. Not even reasonably uncomfortable, she straight up leaves.
She doesn't behave like someone who finds Jay's company interesting enough to strike up a frindship with the strange camera guy next room over.

Seriously, thats not a 'slendershadow'. Actually I think there is no 'slendershadow', its a stupid thing, unless you see his 'face' you can't say its SM. Fo' real, I been looking for SM for a while in the videos that are 'calm' and no sign. I just think if they want to SHOW SM, they wouldnt put a shadow.

Is anyone else here wondering if she could be this vaguely-proven Skully? I know she definitely seems to be in her first stages of SlendySickness, but you never know. I'm pretty sure Skully was female, and it obviously couldn't be Alex's girlfriend


Falling back to the theory that whatever the masks do or dont do, they're worn by people who have somesort of knowledge about Slenderman, it seems possible.
I've always figured in the years before Jay started investigating, the Hornets had their own slenderventures, it seems totally possible that Jessica is an oldschool Hornet, someone who knew cast members.
The real question though, does she know Jay is involved, were they drawn to the same hotel, or is she there because of Jay?

Also, dunno if this has been mentioned before, but even before the near daily memory lapses, Jay didn't remember himself hanging out with the other hornets in an earlier entry... is it possible he was actually more involved in the pre-investigation events himself? That he just doesn't remember?

Just because there's a gal in this series now doesn't mean that she should automatically be deemed a sex object; people keep posting 'lololol, Jessica x [insert almost every character here]' like it ain't no thing. Please stop with that.


aw come on, we did the same thing with Brian, Tim, Slenderman, and all the other male-type dudes in the series.

What if Jay finds a body at the location of Entry 29 (ala the Rake entry in EMH.)?

Or better yet, a tape? We need a clear indication of who the victim was.


You sure you want to know the victim, every time we dig deeper we get a layer of Slender-caramel. I doubt the blood is anything significant to someone dying, rather a case of that is somewhere Jay needs to re-check because shortly after whoever was in Entry 29 visited the sewer opening, our faceless salesman came along.

Yea, I think we're grasping for straws here. There'd be more clues to it than a barely distinguishable shadow.

And Occam's Razor is a principle that basically says "The theory that introduces fewer new ideas is the most correct".

I had an explanation typed out, but here's the Wiki instead: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occam%27s_razor

Here is my idea.

This hotel has no people in it other then the workers, Jessica and Jay. This is why i believe it is not a real hotel. Instead I believe it is a holding area maybe a psych word where people can be watch over. I believe that Jessica and Jay are both being haunted by Slenderman and this place is watching after them. Both Jessica and Jay are probably being protected by being put in this place.

Jessica and Jay also act weird around each other. I believe that both of them do not remember what has happened. i believe over the past months that Jay does not remember he crossed paths with Jessica. Jay at first tells Jessica hes filming a documentary and now he tells her other reasonings and she accepts it which is why I believe she also has no clue why shes at this hotel.

For the future I believe they are going to start doing tag team journeys. She has been coughing and all the other clues so i think Jay is going to help her film the night to catch whats haunting her.

Why didn't Jay show Jessica the footage of the noise coming from her room? She looked like she didn't believe him, but he's got the proof right there!

So has anyone mentioned this possibility:

Jessica WAS just a normal girl minding her own business, and now her interest in Jay has gotten her tangled up in this - hence why she has slight distortion now, as opposed to none in earlier entries?

Idk, it seems like people are deeming her a "veteran" in slenderwarfare, but it seems just as likely that she's a noob getting sucked into the same rabbit hole that Jay and the others got sucked into?

Edit: I'm pumped that Jay is looking for the area from Entry 29, but how exactly does he intend on finding it? That area seems like something you could run into just about anywhere near a forest and a danger of flooding. Could it be possible that Jay has more leads on this then he let us believe?

Edit edit: Also, I think the "prop" that he was waiting for was a CGI Jessica. Looks so lifelike!

I definitely don't think that Jess and Jay are both in the same boat. Whatever's going on with Jess, it's different from what's happening with Jay, otherwise Jay would be causing the same distortion on the videos as she does. If that happened, the videos would constantly be distorted!

I really don't think Jess knows much more about what's going on than Jay either. I think she's got some secrets she's holding back, and it's pretty much a certainty that she's involved somehow, but I don't think she's been acting overly suspicious. Jay's acting more suspicious than she is!
I putting my money on her being a lot newer to whatever's happening than Jay is.

I think she may even be end up being Jay's sidekick/confidante in the near future!
