Speaking of, can anybody describe what that's a painting of? For some reason I can't quite make it out.

Stupendous, colossal video, by the way. I am in awe. I'm in agreement that only a short amount of time has probably passed for Vinnie. I'm not quite sold on the "Corenthal is really HABIT in disguise (with glasses)" idea, largely because I'd expect several years of isolated monster hunting would probably force someone to evolve more of a kickass wildman persona.

I'm anxious to learn more about what the Corenthal Protocol entailed. Maryann broke into the Lambertville building, and then what? Also, have we heard of this Mr. Roberts or his sister Kimberly before?

Dr. Roberts, yes. The earliest Corenthal letters were to him.


Kimberly is a new one.

Ask and ye shall receive. I was just cleaning it up for the wiki.

Oh wow, the ONE DAY that I don't check this forum or my youtube account for new updates in the morning. That just cracks me up that it just happens to be a day that a new EMH is uploaded!

And what a great entry it was! I loved the teleporting, and the little kids crying when Vin was in the bathroom (while the door was being rattled just about off its hinges) creeped me right out. (It also happened right when Vin found the bloody gauze like Alex was using when the rake was attacking him....) Slendy was good and creepy. I kind of got the impression that Vin was pulled towards him at 6:28 ish, and didn't approach him willingly.

I really enjoy the series but have only been following for six months or so, so some subtleties are lost on me in the intricacies of the story. Didn't even know that the man was meant to be Dr. C at first (been a while since I've watched the old videos!) and I thought it was a future!Vincent or something. I was certainly thrown when I read here that it was Dr. C, due to his weird behavior...then I read a few more pages and all the stuff about him possibly being inHABITed, and it sent chills right up and down my spine. Brrrrr.

This post probably doesn't make much sense. But hooray for the new entry....nicely done, guys!!!

Awesome, thanks! But, er, what is it? I can kind of see what look like tentacles, and maybe a face in the upper third? Is it a highly stylized Slender Man? I suck at seeing things, apparently.

And thanks to Ouroborous, too.

The video was kinda meh in my opinion. It seemed too much like the Tribe Twelve halloween video. I do love how the Slender Man's face seems more realistic and less like a cheap costume.

Good on ya, fellows! And man, I hope it does turn out that Corenthal's been inHABITED and we have to decide whether to tell Vinnie or not, because that would be a really satisfying payoff to the foreshadowing we've been getting the past 2 years.

@Childof Atom thanks for uploading that!When I first saw this real quick in the vid--it seems like Cthulhu,seeing it here hasn't changed that.I am not saying it IS him...just saying in a Rorshach kinda way,I know Slendy has tentacles,but just the shape of the creature puts me in mind of The Thing That Should Not Be,LOL

ETA:@ObscureReference I agree with the whole "Poltergeist" reference.I was a teen when that came out and it's one of my all time faves and I just watched it a few days ago.I kinda had the same thought you did when watching it and hearing Alex call out and I posted earlier about things related to this but had been up all night and forgot to add the "Poltergeist" similarity.I also find it significant that Vinnie is hearing him because he was the last one to see Alex 'alive'.
As far as my thoughts about Corenthal/Habit--it certainly has certain merits.Someone else wondered after who "Kimberly" is and I gotta say I am echoing that curiosity.
Someone mentioned why Vinnie would freak out upon encountering another version of himself--if I was searching around somewhere and ran into another version of myself--I would freak the fuck out too! Shocked

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
So...just to be clear, did he see himself in the basement before he ran upstairs?


Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Also, when he ran upstairs and saw slendy it almost looked like a flashback to the first time we see "real" slendy when they run upstairs and he closes the door on them.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

I thought the guy at the end was supposed to be his dad (Wouldn't be hard to believe, since he looks a lot like Vin.). So I just want to know: Is it really supposed to be Dr. C?

I just have one question that maybe you guys can help me answer.

What did Dr. C/HABIT/Whoever that was say right before opening the door and shooting at Slendy? He says something and Vinnie's like "What?", but I can't make it out.

Anyone know what he said?

I hardly recognized the doctor with those shades on, I thought it was Vinny's dad too.

"Son, listen to me. When you see these things, do not trust them. Do not <Help> them. Do not try to kill them. Better yet, duck your head and run the other way."

Also, yeah, now I know that it's Dr. C after looking back through and hearing the badass "the doctor is in" one-liner.

To be honest, to me, that looks kind of like a baby's head, or a baby/fetus, surrounded by tentacles... Possibly Steph's baby? I mean, if they're going to show one of her paintings there (and outright reference it as one of her paintings), I'd think it would be something more than just Slendy. We already know that she's part of the MT4, blahblahblah. What does showing a painting of Slendy tell us that we don't already know?

I'm not sure what the general agreement on the painting is, if there is one. Just tossing out my two cents.

Also, it looks like there's words on the back of it, or something.

Which for me makes the last line of Maryann's letter "...and leave doctor's orders" a bit more creepy/ponderous.Also--as for the Alan Wake game,Dixie Wolf mentioned the phrase "The Lady of the Light" and that is what the pdf of Maryann's letter is called,"The Lady of the Light".Just sayin'

Ohhh....that is a VERY good observation,IMO.Makes sense cuz Slendy's tentacles are coming out and the two seem to be in some kind of "square-off/confontation" and the "creature" has a rounded head like a fetus/baby would and the primary colors are very reddish would could mean "blood/womb" type reference.Plus--we definitely hear the sound of a very young baby crying when Vin's in the bathroom-o-doom. *consults video to try and see words on back*
