 		[TRAILHEAD?] Death of Four
Came across this while wandering on YouTube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3uKj2KIMhsw Seems pretty safe to assume it is an AGR but it looks a bit amateur. Tried doing a search for some of the words that appear in the video, i have found nothing so far.

Well, I can't believe you guys just ease on by this one....then again, I like a good murder mystery. So...guess I'll play wi...by myself for awhile and see what's up.

I watched it the first time and just when I got into it it was a wrap. Since that was all there was to it, I watched again but did so recognizing what I noticed the first time, which was the mini van parked outside on the street. It said these 4 people have been murdered but only shows 3 clearly dead and some chubby chick tied up and hollering for help, so either the camera person gets whacked or the chick does, making 4, or there's one that I sorely missed.

It's not a police video so it's not been reported.

There's no decomposition, so it's all recent.

First body looks like a male face down, shirt or something wrapped over his head tightly. Looks like he's got the word "traitor" carved across his back.

Next body is male, he's been strangled/hanged with a thin ligature. No other visible injuries.

There looks like a T on the wall.

Both of them look 18-20ish.

Room 2 has graffitti all over the door and notes Trol's room and several red open palm hand prints. Lots of writing and scribbling on the door face.

There's 3rd body face up, round pillow over the face and can't really tell if it's male or female. This one's been staged/positioned pretty apparently. His/her left arm has been taped upright on the wall with the index finger pointing up to "giant whore" scrawled on the wall. Also has arrow carved into the forearm.



Right off just that my wager would be the killer is the camera operator Laughing

Looking at how trashy the place was, it could also be the maid who finally got fed up one good time...

dammit forgot I wasn't logged in.

Let's see. We got 1 chick in a house with 3 guys. One guy's a "traitor" and one's pointing to "giant whore"....so a revenge killing since chubby chick was doing these dudes and her bf or some guy who thought he was the bf got pissed off and killed his competition.

K. let's go see

 		Maybe it was a friend or two who found the door unlocked and found dead people inside.

Expect IG cops to swarm all over it. The killer seems pretty demented (if I was the killer, I wouldn't scribble freaky shit all over the wall).

The "Traitor" and "Giant whore" seem plausible for a cheat on the killer.

I'm not going to watch the video, other ARGs have already made me paranoid and scared. Where's the fourth body?

 		ooh, this one looks good, so I'll join in.

firstly, it's hard to tell whether the camera man is IN the scene, or is just imaginary, to show you the situation?

if it is an actual camera man, he's likely to be involved in it.

if it's just to give you an overview, then it's very hard to get any more from it.

there isn't a fourth body. you are left to assume they are all killed. however, one girl was still alive, before it went black, telling us they'd been killed. it might NOT have been one killer. the camera man (if a person) might have killed the girl.

I noticed that the last comment on his profile page is by the human pet. I wasn't involved in that game so I'm not sure of the relevance...

i don't think it is relevant. i reckon it's just a person that liked arg's that got involved with the human pet, then decided to make his own. although the themes of both are similar e.g death, murder. etc.

The reason I mentioned it was that it was posted there on 23rd Oct 2006 - the exact date the first post about the human pet appeared on these forums...it just seemed too much of a coincidence that that user would, with the correct youtube username, post a message to a user now producing another ARG nearly a year later.

 		Maybe the killer is the Masked Guy from The Human Pet! OH NOES!

Seriously, it could. Maybe there's one more missing.

ahh, i didn't know that.. wait, that could mean that the PM is from these forums?
oh and when the camera man walks into the bedroom with the girl screaming, beforehand there is a mirror in front of him, down the hall.
is he wearing a mask?

I did notice that but I can't see any detail -- my connection is too juddery. There are loads of things in that room (and on the door before) that I wanted more detail on like the wall the camera focuses on after filming the girl.

 		one thing that strikes me is how.. happy the music is.
it doesn't strike me as particularly sad.

WAIT, THERE IS A CATFLAP! THE CAT DID IT
solved, kthx.

and there are bits of letters everywhere.. theres the T, and the RAITOR, but some other words must be around.

there is also that piece of paper, with a plastic baby nailed to it by it's foot. thats just harsh, and seems strange with the type of room, it's not particularly disturbed, etc. Pregnancy could play a role?

I'm guessing it's the girls room. and the girls forehead says NEXT?

EDIT: the guy isn't masked.
