All I saw was the white paint wearing off of the ceiling.

Favorite part for me: when Jay continues to go on chatting, and me thinking, "oh jeez, come off it," and at just that point him stopping and retorting, "why'm I still talking?!" XDD I laughed!

The rest, though... argh!

I'm hoping that some of that vandalism was Left 4 Dead style, and will say something useful!

this an agravating one viewing-wise. Jay never seemed to be pointing the camera where i want him to. I feel like those crazy people at the theatre who yell at the movie, "Look at the Window, Jay. the Wiiiindow. NOOO don't point me at floor"

Also the first shot of the garbage bag flitting around scared me wa~y more than the bang. I don't even know what I though it was; a slendy!tenticle maybe

Alright it was probably myself wanting something interesting to happen or be somewhere.

Yeah, this one is really atmospheric and creepy despite the fact that there's no Operator in sight. Marble Hornets does it again, I suppose. Rolling Eyes

It helps to watch this one with the mindset of being someone in a place they aren't supposed to be.

I was definitely at the edge of my seat during this Entry. I guess I wanted more from it though... I'm so greedy.

Yeah, that loud noise made me jump a bit. Couldn't have been the wind, though could it? I hope it wasn't.

Obviously, this place is going to be quite important in the later entries. Wonder why the return address led him there, though. I guess Alex couldn't send that tape from his own home, huh?


Or Alex didn't send the tape at all. There's an enduring theory that TTA/Masky (whether or not they're one and the same) got his hands on the tape and sent it -- this would seem to support that. If Alex sent this, and the "HELP" at the end was from him, he'd've WANTED Jay to find him. If it was just a ploy by TTA to get Jay moving again, well, then, it did so eminently well and without payoff.

That said....

ARGH!

My first thought upon finishing the video was that it was INTENSELY unsatisfying. It set us up for a big scare and then there wasn't one; all of that nervous energy has now gone into cursing the fact that we have to goddamn WAIT for another entry to come out to get some payoff. I felt jerked around. >Neutral

But then, upon considering the above, this entry DOES have some pretty serious implications for the story that's unfolding. Maybe Jay never found Alex at all throughout all those many months. That's pretty sobering.

A thought: this seems to prove (at least on a quick glance) that the tape that Jay received was some kind of plant or a trap; that Alex didn't send it so much as TTA did. Which means that TTA probably planted the camera to begin with. I don't see how Alex would have pointed Jay that direction, nor can I believe that that's the same house as the one we saw in #26!

Well, yes, this house seems very tiny, and one-floored, which is why I assumed he was making fun of his adventure with the other house with his statement about going back.

Did anyone else notice that the window with the garbage bag had black tentacles painted all around it? Interesting to say the least.

This... was the first time we hear Jay talking to the camera... I mean really talking to it. Like he wants us to know something that shouldn't be conveyed by text.

Then he caught himself.

And I worded that weird, but ya'll understand, right?

Wasn't the best entry in the world, but I liked it.
The random loud bang made me jump a bit though.
