I'm not so sure about seeing Slenderman with tentacles here because it looks like something moves in front of it at about 5 seconds in. I think it's sunlight going against a wall. The one standing at the end of the tunnel is definitely from Entry #29, though. Maybe we're getting close to when Entry #29 took place? Maybe Jay will get the new fisheye camera, too.

"*78 Provides the subscriber the opportunity of having all calls intercepted by the CO switch whenever the line is programmed for Do Not Disturb. The calling party will receive a message indicating the station is in Do Not Disturb condition."
"*87 Allows Customers to reject calls from parties who have a privacy feature that prevents the delivery of their calling number to the called party"

Unless I don't understand these codes properly, perhaps *someone* is preventing alex from recieving calls, or preventing J from recieving Alex's calls?


This seems very interesting... Jay DID say at the end of Entry #36 he was going to wait for Alex to call. This could prove to be important. Especially if Alex ended up calling Jay for more 'help' but was unable.

Definitely not a slender tentacle. Though the second image could be his head.

That information is really useful, too. We definitely need to keep the star codes in mind, they could come into play later, especially since there are so many. High five!

First post, please don't hit me:

Is it possibly significant that the distorted busy-signal goes on all through the recorded message?

Mr. Kralie, I suspect, is not dead but busy.

Or is this actual footage (or at least audio) from Jay's camera at the time of his attempt to call Alex?

As I was catching up on the thread, I was convinced that this was a still from Entry #1 - the first Slendy sighting - where he's standing on the porch and his hand/tentacle is held up in front of his face. Just checked out the vid though and I don't think it works. The hand/tentacle is too far away and the zoom is wrong. I REALLY wanted that image to be a flashback to the beginning of everything. Confused

Don't look at the still-frames, they're out of context and not very helpful. Watch the video itself. It's something vaguely shiny being lit from behind the camera, and then someone walks in front of the light, and then I can't tell.

First post~
(Sorry it's so long..)

I may be imagining this, but does anyone else see what I see here? :



The tunnel and a mysterious face, maybe?
(I also have a theory or two for the whole 'LIES' thing, but to keep this as short as I can I'll leave them out for now. If you actually care, just ask me. ._.; )
Another thing:
I believe that's a phonebooth in the video; and (seemingly) we're supposed to be searching for a number, right?

The numbers that spell LIES are 12 9 5 19.
And as Two2Steps noted, the Alabama area codes are 205, 251, 256 and 334. 129519 is obviously too short to be a phone number, so I suggest this (and I know this is far-fetched):

12> 2 - 1 = 1
9
5
19> 9 - 1 = 8

Add the first three numbers from the video (7 8 0) and you get:
(205)780-1958 [LANDLINE]
(251)780-1958 [LANDLINE]
(256)780-1958 [LANDLINE]
(334)780-1958 [CELL PHONE]

The first one is near a considerable number of PARKS in/near Birmingham.
The last is near a National Forest.
I think I'll try them later... when it's daylight. Darn you Slendy. >u>;

while i think these are good ideas, IG its never been said what state theyre in, so since this is an ARG shouldnt we work with what we know IG and assume that we dont know what the area code is?

Well, idk. I mean, I've never really done this before so I'm just sorta goin' with the flow. Maybe I shoulda just kept lurking and watched the ppl who know what they're doing. I apologize~ ^x^;

I don't see how: at least it's either a severe phone-line glitch (which, you know, might be entirely plausible in this context) or a deliberate overlay of two separate recordings, the Kralie audio and the busy signal.

My 2 cents on the phone number thing...

If there is a number to be found in this video, its unlikely to use the 12-9-5-19 combination. Simply because I can't see it being coincidence that is spells "lies". If the point is that there is a particular phone that totheark is pointing to, how would he practically have gone about getting a phone number that includes a combination of numbers that spells the word he's after? If there is a number to be found, its likely a pre-existing phone number - somebody suggested a phone box, which I think is worth looking further into, because they get you a particular place to investigate - but if its a pre-existing number, there's unlikely to be such appropriate words easily found in it!

(Should point out I've no idea how the US phone system works, so am unlikely to be much more use in this discussion...)
