[TRAILHEAD] BristelGoodman

This just got posted to vSocial.com and I'm sure is on the other video sites as well.

interesting... will have to watch when I get home.
- Googling bristelgoodman turns up a few entries, but there's also an entry on podcastdirectory.com, from July 3 with a similar description: "video sent to me in an email from ... ? too freaky for me to ignore - anybody know who this girl is?"
- There are also a couple of youtube hits...
- Found a discussion regarding 'webcam girls' (webcam stripping and such) where one user mentions the bristelgoodman youtube video, thinking it might be related to a previous comment about a webcam serial killer (here, look for post by user 'Martin Starkely', and 2 posts down by 'Walt'), all this from July this year.
- most hits seem to be various copies of the video floating around free video sites
- a whois returns essentially anonymous
- one google cached hit shows a comment:
Quote:
This "Bristel Goodman" film is possibly real. It has been linked to a webcam serial killer who is stalking his victims in the greater New York area. It is rumored that a major internet company has been suppressing the story but it's starting to come out now. REAL OR HOAX, BE SURE YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE WEBCAMING WITH.


A lot of this is definitely very NSFW... real/hoax/arg? Confused

It might not be an ARG or a hoax per se, but it's so not real. While the creepy music and weird video footage do a decent job of ramping up the suspense factor, the actual acting is pure cheese. I still can't help but giggle at the death scene in the first movie. The clutching at the door frame to stop from being dragged to her doom? Pure cheesy goodness. Makes me wish I liked wine so I would have something to wash it down with.

Pretty freaky stuff.

Haven't looked real close, but saw some sign language in there, looks like some codes (hex?) flashed on the screen, the guy & oriental chick video has greek & some asian language

Lots to start with!

Exactly what I was going to write about Red, Wink
Also about 2/3s of the way through the 1st victim video, there is a voice of a little girl reading out numbers.
Could be the numbers she referred to.

I also noted what I could of the usernames for the chat on the screen:

Oooh! Creepy Stuff! Sad

What does it say at the end of the video with the Malaysian Girl and the Fraternity Guy... "Neon Rot Haze"??

Oh, I'll try to work out what the Chinese Writting is in the Malaysian Girl's parts...although it pretty much is (as I'm sure most of you have figured out) what the guy/girl on the unseen side of the webcam is saying...still...I'll give it a shot!

P.S. 'Mongo', how did you find the invitation without the tear???

So, I emailed Eddie.

What the heck is going on? That's some freaky stuff! And what's with the bleeding girl? Funky numbers, sunky languages - greek & something orieltal, some sign language.

Does any of it make sense to you?


And He replied
Quote:

somebody had better contact this latest ones before their "friend" does.
the languages? not my strength
appreciate the help.


Eddie

Emailed Eddie

And he responded immediately.

Quote:
thanks. but it didn't come through the mail. they were just

boxes with my name on it.

if you know any of these people contact them
if not, let others know about them

Eddie


Asked him how I could help.
So, if you guys have any great knowledge, I am in the middle of writing a prospectus.... Mad

[edit - no reason to spoiler an email, save the spoiler tags for puzzle solves in case someone wants to try the solve themselves. thanks - kona]

IronWheat seems to be the original filename of the film that the first victim made when she asked to say goodbye.

That username is actually the name of the first clip uploaded on 12/10 http://www.vsocial.com/video/?d=59415 and the original filename was ironwheat2.mov

So is ironwheat the person she was conversing with during her "goodbye"?
