Moon and I were talking, and she brought up a very good point.

Moon: "It reminds me of the doors in cartoons when there's a chase sequence and the people being chased go in one door and come out another like in a hallway full of doors"

Me: "Like in Scooby Doo?"

Moon: "YEAH!"

Now I'm just waiting for the guys who proposed the theories about teleportation and tie travel, the ones we all laughed at to come back and say "Told you so".

Also, probably not relevant, but J's shadow looked very slenderlike. Made me think for a moment that J was becoming a Slenderman. I'm guessing it was just a coincidence with the lamp placement, though.

And, uhm, what's with the audio?

Hey guys, quick note about the splitscreen at the end: The timestamps are ALMOST the same but not quite. Not sure if it means anything.


Edit: I paused it a few other times to double-check and it seems the one on the right is .030 seconds later than the one on the left.


He's going through that door but not going into that room like he should. Surprised

I'm not really sure what you're all talking about. I didn't hear any odd audio...

I'm just kidding. It's some sort of mellow piano showtune, like the kind you'd stereotypically hear in WWII era radio broadcasts. The volume goes up and down as the video progresses with no discernible pattern to me, and there's significant distortion used on it to make the audio sound "creepy" I suppose.

Audio favors the right audio channel almost exclusively.

It looks like Jay's falling onto his bed and bouncing around like he doesn't understand that you're not supposed to do it face first in that distorted part. WTF!

AUGH MY BRAINS.

<_O> -_- O_O <_>

At least it's some delicious fodder to mull over! 8DDDDDD

(Also, ewwwww, Jay, stop teleporting and clean your dishes! DX Yuck!)

I know that, but there might be a reason why the timestamps don't match up is what I'm saying.


Also, as for the audio, someone on SA pointed out it could be a Navy march. Hmmm, sounds awfully familiar

Was that a face I saw on the TV?!?!? Shocked


Yeah. Um. At first I thought it was Masky. It looks like a skull. Craaaaap. D:

There are also some strange shapes earlier than that, from :37-1:00. The first one sort of resembles an eye socket, and the second one looks like teeth. A skull's teeth.

Smile for death? :O

Edited because I typed something out before looking harder. Whoops.

Also attaching an outline.

Thoughts!

Okay, either Jay, your taste in music for the given situation is damned creepy or... there's music playing he can't hear. I mean, he leaves it on when he goes to bed. And the music does seem to have a weird quality to it, especially around the time when he's coming back in the door from his mysterious absence.

The red-orange-pixelly distortion seemed to reset the camera clock.

He also seemed to be doing some strange things with his body during the distortion, almost like certain parts are in slow-mo, and there seems to be some choppy chunks of time missing -- I doubt he'd be tossing and turning so instantaneously. Floating? Maybe. I'm waffling. The distortion is making it hard to tell.

Again, he doesn't seem bothered by having been absent -- but he does pause for a moment and look back after he returns, right before going to sleep immediately (like he reports having done during entry 19, as well).

Interestingly, we still hear the sound of the door closing when we're in the computer/TV room after Jay's gone through the magical door of teleportation. Dunno if it's relevant or not.

In any case, our Mr. Jay is losing time again. But what is happening? Is he:

a) Under Slendy's sway in some manner even before disappearing, and continues to be even when he's come back?

Perhaps supported by the distortion that shows up before he gets up and goes for the teleporty-door. Maybe it fucked with his brain as well as his cameras, and from that moment on he's missing time. Or...

b) Somehow is only missing the time that he's gone, and when he comes back through the door is still thinking he just left the computer room?

I wish we knew whether or not he remembers going to bed again, or whether it's another lost recollection.

When Jay exits without exiting (you know, the aforementioned portal trick), the television goes wonky. Obvious... strangeness.

The timestamp disappears with that crazy distortion at 1:17. Less obvious... strangeness.

During the distorted section at 1:17, there are two clicks, like someone opening and then closing Jay's bedroom door (or another nearby door) really fast-like. Strangeness.

If each camera records its own audio (as opposed to each camera recording only video, with a single mic somewhere in the house), that means that that strange music at 1:25 is... well, it's coming from everywhere. I mean, it stops at 1:00, even before Jay closes his bedroom door, so it's either coming from one spot then, or it's coming from everywhere... or it starts in the living room and then goes everywhere...

Extreme strangeness.

[EDIT] Oh, JKatkina beat me to the punch for the most-part.

When you hear the door close, a face appears on the TV screen. It is creeping me out. Looks like another sleepless night tonight... Sad

Ninjas above

Okay, here's my analysis on this entry.

They've ran out of ideas.

Oh jesus, yeah. O_O Freaky ubiquitous music. What the hell. T__T Slendy is piping music into Jay's pad.

God, that is bizarre. But if it were true -- if it's music that's not really there, that the cameras are somehow picking up all at once in the same way -- what could it possibly mean?
