While it is never explicitly stated that The House is Brian's, one only needs to compare the entries involving The House to Entry #20 (where Alex states 'here we are at Brian's house...'). Both the layout and furniture seem to match that of The House that Jay enters, although one could make the argument that it is possible for two houses to be built with identical layouts and contain striped couches.

If The House was in fact not Brian's, though, the question then becomes whose could it be? It wouldn't be Alex's, who moved away from town and has been gone for three years at the beginning of the series. Tim has likewise gone on to college, although since he and Brian were neighbours, if anyone were to have a house whose layout matched Brian's house, it would probably be Tim.

Where the heck did you hear that Tim and Brian were neighbors?
As for the tired old similar furniture argument: it's really common looking furniture and entry 20 only used one room of the house they were in whereas the other house entries go all throughout their setting and are pretty durn dark.

Entry #15
Tim: Well, you know, I live next to Brian, so I mean I didn't really live near Alex, he was just kind of...off...

Furthermore, this is why I allow for the possibility that it isn't the same house after all, merely similar furniture in a house with the same relative layout. Even if this were the case, The House being Brian's house is really the only possibility with any supporting evidence at this point. If the filmmakers really didn't want to suggest this 'tired old...argument', as you put it, then why not just have a different couch and different seats entirely? Why not have them sitting around a goddamn table? If the striped couch and long hallway mean nothing, then why show these things?

I've composed screenshots illustrating that not only the couch, but the green chair are matching. If you ask me, that green chair is not "common looking furniture". I've also pointed out a similar layout, but as stated before, houses can have identical layouts.. so perhaps more attention should be spared on the uncanny similarities between couches and the green chairs.

Now before I post the screen shots, please note that it was very hard to capture non-fuzzy pictures since Jay is a spazz and moves the camera a lot. If you review the entries around the times that I've snapped screenshots you can have a better look at what I'm trying to show.

By using screen shots from entries 16 and 18 (which by the narration we can safely assume are the same house, as suggested by the white text at the beginning of entry 18 where Jay writes "I went BACK...") I have collected enough evidence that even a blind fool could deduce that the couches in Entries 16 and 18 are IDENTICAL to entry 20. The same can be said, but with less confidence, of the green chair in which Jay sits in entry 20.

Exhibit 1.1: Green Chair in Entry 20 (Brian's house)


Exhibit 1.2: Green Chair in Entry 16


Exhibit 1.3: Green Chair in Entry 18


Exhibit 2.1: Couch in entry 20


Exhibit 2.2: Couch in entry 16


Exhibit 2.3: Couch in entry 18



And lastly, just for fun, the layout comparisons.

Exhibit 3.1: Front door with an entrance adjacent in entry 20


Exhibit 3.2: Front door with an entrance adjacent in entry 18


Any questions?

Just one.

Could you never, ever leave this forum? Because I can't even comprehend how hard you just pWned. Seriously. That was your first up to bat in the majors, and you hit a grand slam. And then you just dropped the bat like "what?".

Awesome.

Welcome to the forum, BTW.

 		Of the "masks" we've seen (Tim's, Hoody's, and "skully") each one seems to have a corresponding emotion.

Hoody's looks sad.

"Skully" looks happy.

Tim's looks neutral.

Probably coincidence

It took a second for me to figure out who ToThePark was, and when I did I shook my fist angrily. Assuming that I'm thinking of the right person (the random guy at the park in one of Season 2's early entries, listening to music) then there is no way that guy is actually relevant. While I know this series always has something up it's sleeve, that scene was nothing but false tension and possibly some comic relief.

As for our new Mask, I'm saying it's Brian. Brian has to play a bigger part in this, and cannot simply be an actor who bailed once the plug was pulled on the actual Marble Hornets. I'm basing this on the fact that Season 1 practically revolved around his abandoned house. Where did he go? Why did he leave? What exactly happened in that house? So much of the initial mystery took place in that house, and we STILL haven't figured out why. Assuming that totheark isn't just Tim (and it seems that's where this is headed) then it must be Brian as well.

There is also the possibility of Jessica. I think we'll hear from her again soon enough, but not like this.

As has been mentioned countless times it's never been said whose house that was and as for the "cannot simply be an actor who bailed" part, that could just as easily be applied to any of the cast from season 1, not just Brian.


Who's house would it have been? (yes I'm late to respond but I've been busy and so I'm derailing the conversation) I'd say at this point that the only thing we know for SURE is that the house was Brian's. The only people arguing the point are people with theories that involve the house being someone else's and don't want to be wrong.

 		Also, let's not forget that the text on Entry #16 begins with "I received an anonymous tip about where Brian could be located."

 		First off in entry 15 Tim says "I've lived next to" meaning he has in the past, not the present. Second, kitechensowhateverthehell, none of your screenshots are even the same part of the furniture you're comparing. All they do is make obvious the differences in the two chairs and the differently striped couches.
Third, anonymous tip =/= definitely brian's house. Honestly, all I'm saying is never ever get comfortable with any theory regarding marble hornets because every one of them's a sinch to shoot down.



But yeah, those couches have different stripes and the arm of the second chair is cushioned, not angular like the one jay's sitting in.

Yeah, ok, you're done. You've officially reached "please don't feed the troll" status.
The stripes on the couch are the same in the area kitchenyou10sull circled.
The chair's arm isn't angular - the cushion is displaced.

'Nuff said.

 		I'll give bawwing the point that with theories you can never get to comfortable, because there could be a swerve, but I think at this point the "is it really the same house" argument is as obvious as Masky having TimElvis' sideburns.

 		Yep. KitchenYou10sull's post pretty much summed up the argument that it's Brians house, for me, at least. Arguing against this is now just grasping at straws.

 		Ok, the guy proved something about a setting that's not even part of the series anymore. Whoopee(?)
