 The Haven Chronicles
Formerly: "Message from RoAch"

EDIT from 10/22:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
This was a viral for a podcast [url=http://www.zombiepodcast.com/forum/showthread.php?3755-My-New-Podcast!](Haven Chronicles)[/url] that just went live today. It sound pretty epic, and the whole universe around it sounds interesting. I hope there's some other ARG elements too, though. :[


Got this email from roach18. 1.24SPLATgmail.com (is the space allowed on gmail? I'm confused.), the only thing was this attachment:
Roach#1.wav
Description  I know this voice from somewhere....

Can one even send an email to an address like that? I'd like to see if anyone can contact this mystery Roach.

Also, a quick search of the numbers in the email address brought me a bunch of bible verses, but I can't make much sense out of those right now.

Izzie! Very Happy
Also, I think I mistook the space. I think it's roach18.1.24SPLATgmail.com, no space.
I emailed, nothing back yet. Asked how to get in touch with cooper.

I swear I know that voice from /somewhere/. I wanna say it sounds almost like from some TV show, but I could be mistaken. (It sounds a bit like "Eyes Only"/Logan from Dark Angel, both in message and the voice itself-- wow, I forgot all about that show)

Trying to find a twitter or website or something, nothing yet.

Yeah, I just got the same email with same attachment 40 minutes ago.

Thing is, I don't remember ever putting the email address that I received it with anywhere on unfiction etc, which really kinda freaks me out.

It reminds me of an X files episode... Expecting Mulder to knock on my door tomorrow.

Well, it caused me to post here on UF, haven't done that for quite a while.

But the Bible verses are 18.1-24, not 18.1.24; I'm not ruling out a Bible verse though

Transcript:

Quote:
I need you to listen to me.
I am not sure you'll understand what it is I have to say: They aren't human. Not anymore.
They sit atop their tower and stare down upon us with their bleek, black eyes. They know what they're doing to us, yet they continue to do it. Maybe for pleasure? I'm not sure.
They want you to belive they've stopped making them, that their recent spread has nothing to do with the company, but that couldn't be farther from the truth.

Look for Cooper. He is the one with the answers. He may be crazy, insane, completely off his rocker, but he knows what he's doing. They would't let him stay in power if they thought otherwise.
He is their link. Their pawn.

Speaking from a behind-the-curtain perspective, you've probably either sent an email from this account to the same PM previously, entered it into some service run by whoever's running the campaign (if it's some sort of tie-in), or stuck it somewhere (like the Interaction thread) and then forgot about it.

The voice doesn't sound familiar to me. When I read the transcript (before listening) it made think of Twin Peaks. Besides the name Cooper, the ones watching from above made me think of the owl references. Pretty sure this is not at all related, but wanted to put it out there.
