 		Sadly, though I find this portion of the ARG very interesting (notes scrawled in the margins of a book? WOO HOO! Cool ), I'm not precisely inclined to download all of these zip files.

As it were, I tried these passwords:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
YOUWANTEDANSWERS and WANTED


with no success.

EDIT: Oh look -- it's solved! Way to go Ben! Okay, so I was along the right lines, but as usual, just short of actually being useful. Wink THANK YOU WONDER BEN! Very Happy Let's celebrate~~

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Okay so from the diary entries, i am nearly 100% sure that they are Grahams - from the timeline we got before it matches up... all i can say is "poor April" she is clearly going the same way

 		For Ben Stroopwafel Maybe of interest is the Diary Keyword: "Look for 215" & the first 7 "secret" jpegs have a one word tag forming: now you know what happened to him

This seems to have been solved at what, like 3am local time? I hope you're not all falling into the same demonic insomnia that April has!

Yaha, 215 has been huge. So, that plus the new keyword is why I 'looked' a bit deeper: http://wastewatersouth.co.uk/215.php Guess what...it's PW protected. Laughing

**crossing fingers that Wonder Ben or another of y'all post good PW news when I'm back after Sunday dinner** G'Luck all

what did we WANT again? I seem to remember us WANTING something. (p.s. again, capitalisation is important.) Wink

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

for those who can't be bothered to wait for the scroll:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
http://wastewatersouth.co.uk/ritual.php

The ritual I am proposing is deceptively simple, but if performed correctly could be the source of untold benefits.
I've studied the stories about this creature for a long while, and while some warn you away, most seem to talk about the benefits of communion with the creature. Some describe heightened senses, invisibility and other powers, but more importantly thy speak of increased intelligence and metaphysical presence in the world.

The reason I bring this up now is the fact that I believe the recently finished culvert tunnels to be the perfect location. Water and darkness are two recurring elements in this creature's mythology, and its secluded nature should mean that we can go about our business unhindered.

There is one downside, however. The ritual is somewhat more than we have attempted before – with great success, I must remind you – in that there is a new element involved. A form of sacrifice you might initially object to, but I assure you, this is something that will be worth it.

- J


So it seems we have two potential paths:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Follow the mysterious J's lead (nice to meet you, JACOB!) and sacrifice April(?) to the Cyhyraeth for supernatural powers, or find some way to break the spell. Possibly destroy the wand?

Graham seems to be caught between wanting us to go back to the culvert (to sacrifice April to the creature himself? Possibly to gain greater powers? Or simply to serve and satisfy his father?) and warning us to stay away. I suspect he's feeling a little like a schizophrenic Gollum falling under influence of the ring.


Edit: http://wastewatersouth.co.uk/diary.php is gone!
http://wastewatersouth.co.uk/secret/? Still up.

 		Man this is creepygood. I was like Shocked Silly when the webpage started typing to me and then I was like Flaming Nutter when I read the diary...that diary! I can practically feel the silence on all the empty pages. *shudder*

Great job Automaton on that solve! Also, everyone, there is a new video on the archive, called "HIDE", and yes, you're going to need the lights on for this!

It almost appears as if...

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
the blue shadow behind April becomes more and more life-like, separate, as if a parasite leeching and holding onto her...while, of course, the blackened figure behind her watches her ever on...but why watch her? Why? He watches you while you're sleeping, he knows when you're awake, he knows if you've been...WAIT A MINUTE! I figured it out! THE FIGURE IS SANTA CLAUS! DUN DUN DUN!!!


Wink

EDIT: Speculation here, but what if 215 is a date? As in, February 15th? Unfortunately, the diary entries do not have February 15th listed. Just a passing thought.

EDIT 2: I forgot to mention, but the sounds in the "HIDE" video sound like...DUN DUN DUN...

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Morse code!!!


But I might be wrong. Again. Just another passing thought. Screwy
