-cough cough-
I haven't seen it brought up, but I feel the need to bring up Damsel's posting of the Red Hot Chili Peppers' "Don't Forget Me." More specifically, the line, "More will be revealed, my friend." I've got a feeling we're gonna be getting some pretty good info with her post queue.

Or maybe I'm just saying that because it's my favorite song...

My dog is tearing its own skin off for some odd reason.

Ok that is probably an exaggeration, but she is indeed chewing on her self till she goes bald and its all red and tough feeling.

Wait a minute this thread has nothing to do with my dogs skin condition!!

Speaking of Vince, I'm quite bothered by the fact that we have not heard anything from him. We finally got some Evan not too long ago, and Jeff is always around. I request that Vince be rightfully restored as the focus of the camera.

Alex just liked 28 weeks later theme titled In A Heartbeat (<3 zombies) and favorited Linkin Park - Given Up. Any thoughts beside how awesome the first one is? :3

I have a feeling something big will unfold over the weekend.

Wow, jonnymanic has good eyes. I was wondering when the scratches thing was going to come up again.

Jeff's behaviour does make sense. It comes off as kind of a dick to us because we believe the Slenderman theory and because we've been following Damsel's blog for a while and we know her. Remember that Evan believes Damsel because he believes the Slenderman too - if it does turn out it's all some sort of elaborated hoax or something, then Jeff is the one who's doing the right thing. Which is something almost nobody ever does in horror stories so yay for trope subversion.

Basically, if you believe the Slenderman, you believe Damsel and vice versa. Jeff is in denial. Again, it's understandable: there's no known way to defend yourself from lovercraftian reality-bending horrors from beyond this world, but if it's just a dude in a costume with a knack for video editing, well, no matter how strong he is, you can always sneak behind him, whack him in the head and save your girlfriend.

Which makes me wonder if maybe we aren't doing them a disservice by yelling SLENDERMANSLENDERMANSLENDERMAN. I mean, like somebody else (I'm sorry, can't remember your name) pointed out, the only one who has not been somehow affected by Slendy is Vin, who has always been firm in his denial. Well, Alex was firm in his denial too, but he's Jeff's brother, and it looks like Jeff is the main victim.

Damsel herself said something to the effect of "the more we talk about him, the worse". Going off the theory that it's not them not seeing what they're supposed to see, it's us seeing things that aren't there, then, if the Slenderman really works by awareness of the reality of his existence, it's us, the already infected, who are killing the crew by forcing them to admit his reality.

And at this point my theory gets awfully meta and with parallel universes so I'm stopping here.

I absolutley love that theory, nevnaan. Mainly because it would turn the "normal" Slender - situation around. It's not us "helping" and maybe "saving" the protagonists by mentioning SM, but it's us pushing the shit to the fan. That would be great!

Just one tiny bit: the only person where we are SURE that he has been haunted by the Slendster is Evan. In Sleeping Lab#2, where he's dreaming, there's distortion at one point, and he has a terrible nightmare which he mentions afterwards.

Both actually, it pretty much stayed the same between the movies.

I doubt it would be on the weekend. Not sure how school goes for them, but I do all of my makeup portfolio on the weekend when I have off and I end up being done, after editing and etc, around Wednesday. So my guess it would be easier for them to post during the week.

Yeah, but Jeff had his girlfriend disappear and Alex being disturbed. Going with my theory, Jeff can't be affected directly because he's not firm in his belief - he goes between complete denial, trying to make sense of it all with a sort-of-rational approach, and moments of panic.
That's why Slendy is targeting the people around him, but not him - to make him a believer. He was probably able to take Jessa because of her contacts with Damsel, who we all know is convinced Slenderman exists, and might have "infected" her unwillingly. And Alex is suffering because his brother's paranoia is getting to him.

Evan is convinced it's the Slenderman or at least some similar thing, and that's why it was easy for Slendy to sneak into his dreams.

Vin, who's in complete denial, is the one who's being affected less.

I love your theory, nevnaan. Slenders is sort of like the evil Tinker Bell.

I still don't think the information available justifies Jeff's behavior, but I have to admit it's not unrealistic. The real-life story of the West Memphis Three does show that speculation and suspicion can override evidence in stressful situations. I just hate to see Jeff go off like this without a smoking gun, or a gun, or smoke.

Well these 2 questions are pretty random well:


1. Hows Daniel doing(guy who played fake Slendy) doing for all we know he could have disapperd and the guys didn't notice?

2.Does anyone know the identity of afro-guy in Alex's background?

A little sleuthing turned up this blog post. Looks like afro-guy is Larry Langford, former mayor of Birmingham, AL, and past reporter for Birmingham's WBRC TV news.

I wonder if the connection to Birmingham--home of Damsel and (I think) MH--is a total coincidence. It is an awesome image all by itself.

EDIT: And now for some crazy-ass not-even-speculation. Somewhat near Birmingham is Uniontown, which hosts a very controversial dumping site for toxic coal ashes. It is literally a land of ashen waste. There's no way in hell the EMH guys would be that cryptic, though.

Hey, don't be so quick to dismiss it. Everything's worth looking into, right?
I'm gonna go ahead and throw a link to an article about this Uniontown on Twitter and see if we get any kind of response to it.
