awesome find, very interesting story, but it seems as if he's just loosing his hearing due to his lisp.


TTA's pretty obsessed with auditory clues/distorted audio.

Yeah, I can't help but think now that TTA may very well be intended as SM because of the audio. Not only is it distorted, but it's a call, a sort of beckoning.

I don't know, but I can't help feeling that he was intended to be. Else it's some sort of great coincidence how the stories line up.

Edit: Someone in the Addition thread mentioned that it might be significant that the "SEE YOU" was out-of-focus. Maybe it was. Now, not only are the letters blurry, but there are parts missing.

Analogy, anyone?

I would not try to read to much into this the message is obvious, if you come back to the house i will be waiting. Though I am trying to work out whether he is being helpfull in his creepy way or just out and out threatening. This video is Tits anyway

While i think it is obvious that whoever totheark is, is waiting at the house, it is a very interesting question whether this is a threat to stay away or as I said, a sincere but extremely creepy invitation over.

It's too obvious... All of this is too obvious! GAH!

Of course he's beckoning him back! He's getting bold. If TTA lured him to the house the first time, just to film J behind his back, it was a warning. "Look what I can make you do. I dictate where you go, what you say. You're a puppet."

J can't seriously consider going back after this video. That's the thing; No one in their right mind would go back to a house after getting a message like this from the creeper who stalked him.

So, what does stubborn ol' J do?

He goes back.

Also, there are no dashes or codes in this one. The description reads only "again." Come back again, really, is the only sense I can make of that.

I still don't think TTA is Slendy, he's obviously a third party considering he's updating his youtube and SPEAKING, not to mention using a camera.

Still creepy as all hell though, and he may be just as alien as Slenderman.

Anyone know what the clip was from?

yikes! things aren't looking good for poor J are they?
Did anyone try this with 3D glasses? I don't have any, but someone on youtube tried it. They said nothing looks weird until 'come back'. I don't know what they mean by weird...it's all looking pretty strange to me!

Something cold, something sleepy, something of cease and peace and the long bright curve of space. Banish them. Refuse to speak. Go upstairs to your room. I will be waiting for you. I will tell you a story better than the Snow Ghost. I will surround your bed, pile a deep drift against the door, so that none will ever again be able to enter.'"

Was this directed by the very same Welles that did the whole "War of the Worlds" Radio transmission?

If so, think about it how much does the whole ARG phenomena (and viral publicity for that matter) relates to the broadcast that Welles did in the 30's: We are the audience, we do not know what is real or not and we're being conduced by some sort of trasmission device, the same way the audience in the 30's were conduced to believe there was actually a war with the aliens developing outside their cities, which led to mass histeria that night.

I think that TTA wants to help J.

The snow is a symbol for cleanliness. (Also cold which might give some bad interpretations though. I will have to consider that...) And we can deffinently draw parallels to the other TTA videos, since a lot of those are about water, the liquid version of ice (snow).

"I will tell you something new, something cold"
So he is going to show/tell J something connected to snow, right? I think TTA is going to show J the solution to the SM mystery..

I'm just going to throw this out: I think it is very liekly that this is the last video we will see in the Marble Hornets case. If me imagine that J goes to the house, something will definently happen there. If he gets in contact with TTA, he will most likely either die..

..OR maybe TTA will tell him something which will make him change his mind about making videos about SM. To now tell the public about his identity..

Ideas??

H.G Wells wrote war of the worlds I believe, not sure who did the radio broadcast.

Also I don't know if this is relevant but in entry 16 (?) when J is looking through the house, aren't one of the bedroom doors locked?

War of the Worlds the novel was written by HG Wells and dramatized for the radio by Orson Welles (note spelling diff).

Funny, we just finished listening to the original broadcast and watching the movie in social studies.


Yes, the broadcast created a lot of hysteria, but it shouldn't have, they interrupted the program THREE times to tell them it was all fiction, and people still thought martians were invading.

Yea, definitely gonna wave the WTF flag here.

Some people seem to perceive TTA as being threatening to J. I don't think I've seen any proof of that- not yet anyway.

I treat Addition and Exit as the same circumstances- I honestly believe that in both situations, TTA led people there. Both of them have SM present. In both, J is being filmed without his knowledge. Let's not forget that the footage in Exit is from 3 years ago. If TTA really had beef with J, he probably wouldn't sit on it for 3 years, waiting for the opportune moment to strike. Again, if he wanted to harm J, Addition would've been the perfect moment. And it's not like TTA has been following J's every move for 3 years. He would've started with the video responses sooner than, what, Entry 9?

I also want to point out TTA's videos are for J, not for us. If TTA was trying to harm/threaten J, he wouldn't have started out with Regards. TTA is trying to communicate with J- albeit in codes. Why, I have no idea. TTA is a weird bird regardless, but he's been trying to maintain some level of encryption for whatever reason. Signal seems to be an indicator that TTA is either frustrated or desperate- he's dropped all the usual bullshit and stuck with something easily understandable. TTA wants J to go back to the house because he missed something.

TTA wants to help J accomplish some goal, whatever it is. I don't believe it has anything to do with Alex's whereabouts, because that wasn't a real issue until Entry 14- Alex may play a part in what TTA is trying to guide J too, but that's not the last leg of all this.
