 		Tbh, I've always thought that just looked like a fairly flimsy bit of wood standing up against the wall - possibly burnt from the fire. Rather than a door attached to the wall.

The character that walks up to it is also a bit too stocky to be slenderman - I mean, hes not even slender! Just my two cents.

If anyone can screencap it for me and show me that it looks slendylike, then I'll change my mind (can't access ootoobe at work!).

I'm going to go ahead and jump on the "who dun it" speculation bandwagon for a second.

I don't think it's Alex, because I believe he's distanced himself enough to not be involved and he hasn't done anything recently to indicate he'd be a malcontent that Masky has. I really feel the only supporting evidence for Alex would be that he mentioned wanting to burn the tapes earlier, but nothing indicates that he would do so now.

As for Slendy. We've seen him creeping at people's windows, we've seen him stalking you in the forest, we've seen him waiting diligently for your arrival. What we've never seen is him busting through a door like there was no tomorrow. If that was him in the video, I get the feeling he did not cause the fire and that he was ****ing pissed about it (seriously, look at him slam that door down, jesus christ).

Slendy showed no indication before this that he'd start the fire. Masky/TTA have. TTA's clearly stated he'd be coming for Jay.

There's something about Slendy tearing that door down... I feel like it's an indication he can't teleport wherever he wants to and perhaps hasn't been able to stalk Jay since he's kept himself cooped up in his room/moved out. That or his teleportation is electricity based like we've speculated and he hasn't been able to see Jay since he moved out because he hasn't been able to creep or teleport in. Either way, I don't believe that Slendy's known Jay's been gone.

Which leads me to my theory on it: Masky did it (either to try to get Jay or out of anger from finding out Jay no longer resides there) and Slendy was actually checking on Jay's safety when he was entering (assume primitive intelligence in not knowing his body would be removed if her were severely hurt and he wouldn't assume that Jay would leave in such an emergency) because he believed he was still in there. For whatever reason, maybe Slendy is actually concerned for Jay and that it's not Masky protecting Jay from Slendy, but Slendy protecting Jay from Masky.

For me at least, it'd explain that Slendy isn't going after Jay and that's why Masky/TTA is going after him. Outside of the surveillance video, Slendy's never gone towards Jay without Jay seeking him out (going to the house) or Masky going after Jay (#16 or so I think, where Masky's creeping in on Jay, then the Return video, which also indicates that Slendy has no interest in Jay, passing him by for the camera).

Might be completely ridiculous, but Slendy definitely appeared to have some sort of urgency to get into Jay's room that he hasn't shown before.

Also, if Slendy wanted Jay dead, wouldn't he just do his typical Slendy killing? Hell, if that's Slendy viewing the fire from the crowd instead of going in to check then, maybe that means Slendy's vulnerable to it.

I know this is all probably trout, but it's just a theory I thought of to tie together a few things. This video definitely adds a ton of speculation possibilities, but it's still incredibly inconclusive and doesn't really advance the story much.

Just reading this and a question popped into my head. If Slendy wants to keep Jay safe why doesn't he, ya know, kill Masky?

This brings me back to my theory that Masky/Tim/TTA has somehow developed an immunity (or partial immunity) to Slendy's powers. Tim's been coughing, sure, but he managed to capture Slendy on camera at VERY close range in the Return video, no one else has gotten anywhere near that close and kept their heads.

As for the video... well, it's possible that it's not Slendy throwing the door, but during the actual fire footage, we see at 1:10, that's a VERY odd-shaped tree that the camera is passing behind.

 		Who says that Masky/Tim/TTA kept his head at the time? The camera seemed to be pretty shaky. It could be that he had the same reaction as everyone else, and found and uploaded the recovered footage later! Surprised

 		Hmm, good point, but he also seems to have special powers of his own (getting to J, uploading #####, et cetera), so a partial immunity to Slendy wouldn't be too improbable an addition to the list.

The special powers could boil down to MM using warp doors that Slendy has left behind, or even breaking into Jay's house and then erasing the evidence. Then again, I don't think that it would be unfair to say that he has a partial immunity. Usually when a character goes batshit insane in a story it's because they've sacrificed said sanity for something useful. It seems like, to an extent, they all have a bit of 'immunity'. It depends on what they're immune against. If we're talking about the memory loss as being the main problem with encountering Slendy, maybe TTA simply has notes written all over his arm for when he blacks out and forgets. Jay has his tapes and what I'd guess to be some kind of gut feeling (he knows, for example, when shit is out of whack in his life even if he doesn't do anything about it for four months!)
