Well now I'm just really really confused.


I mean *really* confused. Dunno


If I were the Evelyn PMs, I would extremely quickly push out new content to make it very very clear where their game is headed, because right now I see no way of reconciling these things as "coincidences." I mean, when a news clipping in a video from the Horror Nights website explicitly mentions the central character in the game, one naturally expects these things to be connected. If they aren't connected, then what are we left with? Are both of these events just cannibalizing from the same backstory? Halloween? Orlando? Palace Theater? Whaa?

Bizarre, indeed....

And thanks for sharing. Now I'm really curious what is happening next. I've been sick and haven't spent much time online, but here is my latest message from Evelyn. I responded back that I'm ready and waiting...

New update from Evelyn Offscreen Website:

Just recieved this email today:

From: storySPLATevelynoffscreen.com

Sub: Evelyn Offscreen

Hello all,

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but I stumbled across this article in the paper yesterday morning.

Evelyn Crane, deceased at age 76


I've already started a fan site with the Crane family's approval, and I'd love for you all to join me. To get started, visit http://www.evelynoffscreen.com/sign_up.php and tell us a little bit about yourself. Sorry about the registration process, but we need to make sure that the community stays nice. Ms. Crane has always attracted a lot of attention from the press, and I'm afraid not all of it is going to be positive... Let's work together to make this community great.

Cheers,

Melissa Lawson
Evelyn Offscreen Fan Club President


And if you follow the link in the email, then leads you to a register page and asked you to fill your information and choose your charactor in the story.

Maybe they will begin the main part of this ARG.

I've signed up and been invited to the ning, I am, Ingrid Shaw,a fan with the back story of ":You are a self–proclaimed psychic, sensitive to mystical forces. You read Evelyn's palm once, many years ago, and always felt a kinship to her after that experience"

Just wanna let anyone know that, you can create more than one character as you can. but you must register with different email.

So that's two character I've chosen:

Ryan Grimes (Fan) -- A collector of movie memorabilia. Like to collect the photo and signature of recently dead celebratly, and want to get Evelyn's signature for his collection.

Abby Rose (Fan) -- A parapsychologist specializing in ghosts and hauntings. Looking for a real haunting and a real challenge to put her skills to the test.

Whoa. I'm a little sad that she died before we were able to finish our research.....but it should be interesting to see where this goes next. I've signed up, and took the obvious role:

Ginger Reese: You are a mystic who seeks knowledge about the supernatural. You were drawn to Evelyn's quest for immortality and she spoke with you a few times, asking for advice. Just before she died, you thought that she might be ready to share something more substantial about her life – but unfortunately that never happened.

I chose the character Hope Simmons, a documentary filmmaker who wants "...to uncover the human story behind the eccentric actress, and to know how her quirks impacted the people closest to her when she was alive."

In case anyone didn't receive the email, here's the newspaper clipping included in it.

Hmm, an ARG turning into a RPG, this sounds like fun, i´m in.

Oscar Davis:
You are a somewhat gullible journalist, having worked for Cryptozoology publications and the National Enquirer in the past. You want to believe that there is something more to life than what meets the eye, and you are always looking for the supernatural angle.

Hi everyone.
My choice was Werner Burke, description:You are one of the actress' many ex–husbands. You were too weird, even for her, and all the family is uncomfortable around you. You enjoy that.

I think this is the most interesting line of that article:
Quote:
In an unusual move, a memorial service will be held at her secluded Florida home at the end of the month. Family members say that the delay is to allow for more economic travel plans to be made for all the former co-workers, family and friends that may wish to attend.


Sounds like a Live Event to me...
