That is thought to be during the 3 hours Jay doesn't remember, however? I thought you were talking about the first appearance of Masky.


You're right, the events happen during J's blackout. This means the footage is recent - more recent than either trip to the house. If I'm not mistaken, Return was the last footage shot by totheark. This footage shows totheark (aka Masky) and Slenderman in the house that J plans on revisiting.

From his responses, we can tell that Masky has not moved on from that house. Since Masky seems to want to follow SM, we can assume that SM is in the house as well. There is another possibility - Masky may be waiting in the house with another/several MH cast member(s). If this is the case, then Masky has been with them for at over two months (since the response to Entry 1Cool.

I noticed that the sailor footage has been slowed down in several places - when he pauses in front of the trash can, his right leg is blurred until he completes the movement. The reversal of the footage is one smooth movement. Nice effect to make the footage look weird (though a sailor picking up a bar of soap to throw it out is weird enough). Is the footage supposed to mirror J's mannerisms when picking up the film box?

TTA's declaration of "Found you" indicates there's only one Slender Man (and he found him). Otherwise, he would say "I found one of you".


Unless, of course, TTA is a slender man as well.

Which would almost make sense. "Return to us" -> stop going rogue, the Slender Men Society can't continue its charity work without its most valued member.

Not sure what it means, but it certainly appears to have been done with some intention behind it, instead of just to look odd-sounding.

Interesting ideas about this tying into Alex's monologue, by the way.

Maybe TTA is from Yorkshire?


I lol'd, I really did

did anyone ever ask totheark whether or not he is masky, why he was in jay's room, why he attacked jay or anything? Maybe we were supposed to, he's answered us in the past.

When asked who we can trust, he said "noone" and when asked if we could trust J he said "human, therefore no". I think TTA may be on our, the viewers, side

Good idea, I just sent him a message, subject: "Friend or Foe?"

The message was: "Are you an enemy to Jay, or a friend? What is your relation to the enigmatic figure known as 'Slender Man?'

Were you the masked figure in Entry 19?"

 		On his first visit, J actually unlocked the front door and let SM into the house. From what I have seen, SM is incapable of opening doors that are closed (and clearly hasn't learned how to open these new fangled sliding doors!).
Maybe the guys in the house aren't so bad after all? And they were trying to scare J into not doing it again.

 		Y'know, i remember something about vampires and things like that following a similar rule. They can't enter a home through a closed door or window with out gaining permission from the owner or someone living there. Slendy could very well follow that rule. Possibly - the accounts of him entering homes (outside of MH) could all be due to the mental state of the victims, which made them allow him in when they wouldn't otherwise.

Then again, Iunno. Slendy clearly entered Alex's room in one of the entries. I don't think he let him in, and I doubt he left a door opened. He did leave his bedroom door cracked, but, I'm referring to his actual house door.

I am pretty sure that the door was a jar (thus, not a door and equally thus free reign for Slendy to pass through) in that clip, but I plan on double checking that right now.

The door to his actual house. Not the door left cracked open. I mean like, his front or back door, that shut off the inside from the outside. I know the door to his room was left a jar.

I see what you're saying now. It's entry #14, by the way, and Slendy pushes the door open *more*. As for his presence, maybe he was already in the house? While J is filming his parts for MH, Slendy lurks in and begins his wait.

If the door was a jar, Slendy must be able to make himself really really tiny as well as stretchy.




Sorry, sorry, bad joke.

It wouldn't be the first time, as seen in entry #11

It most definitely was! Thanks for reminding me about this, such a fantastic series.

 		Never read that book, but I've seen it in various stories about 'mythical' creatures that could potentially cause harm. They can't cross thresholds of doors or windows with out permission. I've seen it applied to Vampires (Not the sparkly ones), certain types of demons, the 'old' idea of fairies (the more malevolent types, not the 'Lawlpeaterpan' type.), and various other entities.

The rule probably originates from the same background, though.

 		So I was rewatching Entry 15 and I noticed that Tim says that he lived near Brian. Brian's house is the one they keep going to. I think that this reinforces the fact that Tim might be one of the people at Brian's house, since they were close. Even if he wasn't at the house it wouldn't be a big deal for him to notice Jay visiting and show up as Masky.

To reiterate my point Seth is TTA, Tim is Mask, and the us in "return to us" is Seth and Tim.
