I thought Trail Dude was Brian at first, since Brian is a big guy, although not that big but I thought that he could of started to comfort eat after all his friends left him.

Jessica being pissed was funny, I'd totally be the same. I think they only reason why she hasn't told him to fuck off or hasnt switched rooms to the other side of the hotel is because she either knows or has a hunch that he's in the same situation as her and that he might be helpful.

Anyone else see something in the background. The only way I can describe it is goblin dude, not ready to say Slendy though. Or, you know a shadow.


Here is what I think he is trying to point at.




It is Slendy stalking the woods? Or is it bigfoot?
Possibly both.


I've seen this before... Oh wait! It's...



The Operator is a Martian!!

I definitely think Jessica's question suggests that she's been experiencing memory loss. If she were asking purely because of Jay's weird behaviour and inconsistent stories she'd have worded it differently. The way she asked was very specific; she knew what she was talking about.

I'm usually totally against jumping to conclusions too early but I'm pretty much convinced now that Jessica is going through the same thing as Jay. All the evidence is pointing that way and it really doesn't feel like a red herring.

The irritable way she answered the door... my guess that this is because she's unsure and suspicious of Jay. Assuming she's going through a similar thing, she'd be freaked-out and paranoid. And now he's appeared acting really shifty, so her first instinct would probably not be to trust him. That would also explain the way she's apparently been conveniently lurking around the hall when he's passing: she's been trying to find out more about him.

The question would suggest though that she's starting to suspect he's a victim rather than potential threat, so she's tentatively opening up to him. If that's true, saying "no" to her was probably a bad move, but I'm sure it's nothing Jay can't rectify if he wants too.

that was totally my first thought when I saw him too.

Well, his reason for being there seems a little poorly thought out. "I'm gonna listen to my music while standing really still in the woods, off the trail. Oh, there is someone else here, whom I should have seen ahead of me, I'll just leave."
I dunno, I stop walking everytime I have to look at my iPhone, lest I end up on my face, on a poorly mantained trail, you almost have to.

If he had pulled his headphones out and we heard just a little bit of that, it would have been the funniest thing ever.
that weird sound* at the beginning of the song really does make me jump, I associate it with watching MH at 3am last year.
*I wantEd to call it a "party noise for a second" but that's just weird

I really hope they answer that at somepoint. Unless we're supposed to assume the blood in 29 was from some dude Jay mugged pre-memory lapse...

Now then, you guys figure she can tell he's lying? She seems pretty sharp (relative to our own lovable narrator) wonder what she'll do now.

EDIT: I should read posts more diligently. I'm pretty sure ArkyMcArkArk's point (she's a total n00b to this situation) and mine (she's just beginning to experience Masky/TTA/Operator to some degree) aren't as similar as I read the first time around.


No, I'm completely with you there. I think the interesting question is not if she's involved (which seems pretty darn near certain, though I'm still holding out a bit of doubt), but to what level she's inolved to. I would say beginner as well. Her actions thus far don't say Slendy-expert (Slendspert? O_o) to me. Of course, neither do Jay's, and he's been doing this for a LOOOONG time.

Also, this was brought up a few pages ago, but it was the one thing that stood out to me from the clip (apart from the pants-shatting moment with Trail Guy). Around 3:00 when he looks into the mini-tunnel-of-death, I was perplexed by that small black shadowy/leafy thing in the center of the tunnel. I watched that segment over a few times, and I'm fairly convinced it's changing shape. It's hard to tell for sure - I posted some screen caps, but even they aren't totally conclusive. But it's moving in a very... unnatural way, especially since none of the other leaves around it are moving at all like that. Maybe I'm digging into it too much, or it could be a red herring (irony that it'd be right where Operator was if we assume Barrel == Tunnel) but hey, these boards are for speculation, right?

Here are the caps for anyone who cares to look deeper and confirm / debunk my suspicions.

I would say that was completely purposely done OOG, if you look through them, a lot of the season two videos have visuals that reference slenderman without anything else going on (long shadows and the like). I would guess this is just another visual reference, with no significance in game.

I must say Trail Dude is very creepy. It always seems he's so close, even after Jay ran for a little bit. And who can stand that still? He didn't move at all that whole time, and that is talent in my opinion.

Well, reading this thread totally ruined the reveal of trailguy.

Definitely leaning towards Jessica being in the same boat. She's lying about things that she does as well.

there is a voice that wispers "enter" at about 4:15 listen from 4:13-4:17. this makes me think that the viedo was intrducing trail guy ie enter trailguy. the shadow in the back ground was probably TTA filimg the next instalment. i dont think we were suposed to see it.

i expect to see trailguy in mask in the next few veidos and the next video will have jessica speak of slendy.

i expect the next video to be TTAs doing something either with or to the trailguy Twisted Evil

give me 20 dollars Flaming Nutter

I kind of want to go back through season 1 and see if he pops up anywhere. This might pin him as someone who The Operator is using to track Jay.

My other theory is the Jess-syndrome theory. Maybe he's totheark.

Now, I'll pause on this theory and show my reasoning: he's a bit pudgy maybe, but it has been 7 months. 10 months of no activity for totheark's account actually. Also, his voice. If you watch "Entry #####" and then listen to trail guy's voice there's a distinct similarity, even though totheark's video has audio distortion. Plus, it could have been the rain but there was some minor video distortion when Jay's walking up to meet trail guy.

Anyway, back on track. Jessica may not like Jay very much anymore because he's bothering her for what may or may not be legitimate reasons, but she does cling to him for some support. I think she's suffered some memory loss because of The Operator and oddly ended up in a hotel next to Jay.
The same could be true for totheark, if he is trail guy. He could have possibly remembered Jay and been stalking him from a great distance and decided now was the time to stalk him closer, to get answers.

Of course, if totheark shows up in season 2 this eather means he regained his memory somehow or trail guy wasn't totheark and my theory is kinda shattered.

It's either the memory loss or Jay just plain out sucks at lying.

And when I saw the trail guy, I freaked out until it was just a normal guy listening to his ipod (now I know how it feels to be Jay when watching that scene...).
