...So in HABIT's last CYSTW post, Roger mentioned that he was trying to build the "perfect shell." Could that be the rake? It would certainly explain why it seems to act as HABIT's hitman.

I wouldn't jump to conclusions. The Rake doesn't seem to act with one goal in mind, it might just be obeying some instinct to go after Alex, as it seems more animal than man. He could be connected to either one, or just something lost to its own mind.

I think Lexi house could be another fake video like hidden thing.

Bet our boys give a what video response.

Agreed with all of this. Time is running out.


Also agreed. The animals (maybe deer specifially, but with all the attention drawn to dogs and rabbits, maybe not) are connected to the Flood and the ARK. (Which, in turn, is connected to Slenderman) In the bible (which Steph has highlighted passages from) Noah's ark was used to save two of every species of creature and his family. The "flood" portion of the video was an allusion to the metaphorical flood that will soon be realeased. If things are going along this basic line, maybe the "family" in question is the boys and Steph, with Slenderman being the "Noah".

Perhaps the boys (and Steph?) are also part of the group that may be "saved." (Whether or not this is a good thing has yet to be seen.) Of course, there is a strong chance that the ARK is a sinking vessel.But if HABIT was not referencing the ARK, that leaves even more questions as to what did mean.
HABIT and Slenderman do not seem to have a very good relationship. If Slenderman is the one who is supposed to...maybe not protect the boys, but at least keep them away from whatever HABIT is up to and save them from the "Flood", then HABIT will do all in his power to keep that from happening.

Didn't HABIT, as the child Evan, drown the rabbits first, then assembled them in the crucifixion of christ?

I sent the boys an email but something went wrong and I can't post a transcript of what I sent them. Basically I asked if they knew about the video and whether or not they could see it. I also asked them if they were all ok. I haven't heard a response yet but I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
Oh and SleepingHellion, your point about Evan drowning the rabbits is very interesting. I never made that connection before.

Did he drown them? I thought he ripped them apart/stabbed or something. I'll check again. I do belive you're right about the crucifixion though. Nice catch.
EDIT: The wiki does say that Evan crucified the rabbits, but it doesn't specify how he got them there. Unless I missed an article.

I thought I heard something about drowning or suffocating, something about oxygen, and the nurse was brutally murdered. To my knowledge, the warren of rabbits were maybe some sort of therapeutic pet for the general populous of those inhabiting the hospital. I do think that there is something to his rabbits, and our HYBRIDs, as well as the RABITs in his trial.

Also, I'm throwing about few ideas(in my head) about HABIT & Slenderman concerning what the Rake's role might possibly be, other than an enforcer because from what i've seen, the rake isn't only going after people of HYBRID-interest.

Oh, yeah, MAJOR connection with the rabbit thing. It's all HABIT seems to talk about. like he has some weird fetish or something. What, who said that?
Maybe I am wrong and it was said that FMEvan killed the rabbits via suffocation. It wasn't what the first report Corenthal wrote about Evan at the Childrens Home said, but there is a strong possibility I am forgeting something metnioned later on. I'm a little forgetful.
The nurse was murdered with -REDACTED-, but she was probably stabbed to death and that's why FMEvan wasn't allowed writing utensils, only a camera.

I keep waiting for a blatant reference to Watership Down beyond the rabbits... none at all.

I guess you could say HABIT is Elil, and Frith is the rabbit's twisted god. Wink

Just fantasizing...

SleepingHellion and I got to talking, and he suggested that maybe HABIT was attacking people other than the HYBRIDs because he constructs the bodies he wears, maybe in a Frankenstein-like way. At first we thought this was the way HABIT wanted to create his perfect vessel, but then again, he's a really vain entity, so he probably wouldn't go for a patchwork body to live in for the rest of eternity. But if you consider it in the context of his CYSTW posts, then a patchwork body makes more sense -- it would have been selected from the best parts of his victims, would be the best body he could make for the every day wear and tear of raping and killing and cutting on himself like a Reaver .

But I doubt those bodies last very long, especially with his spirit being the only thing moving it. Eventually it would start to fall apart, and he would have to start all over again. Maybe that's why HABIT hangs out with Slenderman. Slendy gets the kids, and HABIT gets to play with the adults, and with Slenderman's help, push them as far as he can to find out how durable their bodies and spirits are, and then harvest them once they've died.

We know that he's currently a spirit, likely possessing the boys. But there's going to be a confrontation between him and them, eventually and likely a violent one. If he's harvesting bodies to make a human suit, then he won't risk Evan getting badly hurt or killed -- and he won't have to possess Evan to fight, or any of the other boys. He won't touch them after all, he just taunts them.

SleepingHellion pointed out that all of this suggests that HABIT is avoiding dying while he's wearing a body -- which itself suggests that if the host dies, then he goes with it.

We think we've stumbled on his secret.

I'm also making this post at Project ATLAS, with a special addendum.

This sounds a little dumb, even for me, but I figure why not, since you never know what could happen. Nothing ventured....

It's been theorized that some events that we've seen have happened, but where forgotten by the boys. Repressed. I don't actually believe in this, but hypnotism used to be used (or at least portrayed by actors in TV shows Embarassed ) by therapists to help a patient remember past traumatic events. Would that be possibly to use on one of the boys to recall an event or two that we believe actually happened but they forgot about? What's the worst that could happen?

If this is the stupidest idea you have ever heard in your life, feel free to ignore or make fun of me. I crack jokes at myself all the time.

I wouldn't say it's the stupidest idea I have ever heard, though I would be wary of using hypnotism due to the power of suggestibility (and the fact that I feel as though that would end in unfortunateness). That said, yeah, there are a lot of techniques used to to help people who have experienced trauma remember past events. Whether these techniques could be useful with the boys, well, that's another matter entirely, given that these memories would probably have to be triggered within a single session and, you know, obviously regular therapy would last for a significantly longer time.

But definitely an intriguing idea and one I had been considering myself. Though that's probably because I'm a psychology nerd with a concentration in Trauma Studies.

Funny, I'd always assumed the hidden videos acted like hypnotism (or at least, Hollywood hypnotism), considering the crew's response to the DVD. They were certainly some kind of strong trigger. But I hadn't even considered what you've suggested. Unfortunately, I think the bad experience with the DVD would probably keep them from trying anything like that. And hey, that's understandable.
