So wait, on a scale of one to ten... how scary is this video. Because depending on your answers I may have to postpone watching it until forever the morning.
Two. Really not that bad. It won't give you any nightmares. It's more of a startle than a scare.


Just watched it... I think we both overestimated me.

Good vid. Sometimes the acting is a little strained, and the calmness with which they're accepting everything is a little... well... calm, but the humor was great and the editing fantastic.

Evan crying wolf startled me, then I laughed, then shat brix XD

The cut to chains was perfect.

Also, OH NO VINCE.

#savethebeard Razz

EDIT: Oh, totally calling the "security camera" footage as being somehow connected to Slenderman.

Note that the first thing that pops into Evan's mind is that Alex was attacked by a supernatural being. He didn't know anything was happening with Alex until he saw the footage, and he acted as if it was new information (although he took it in stride) when Alex described the Rake for him... he didn't know what it was that was happening for sure until he was told, on camera.


I think Evan is just genre saavy. One does not attack Slenderman with a baseball bat and not learn a thing or to.

Hell, we're perfect examples. One of use get's a weird phone call and we automatically assume it's from HABIT or the Rake. I think it's fair for Evan to assume that if something weird is happening...it's probably something supernatural

Very much makes sense given what's been happening to the HYBRIDs, but it's interesting to note that's the very first thing that he thought of. Outside of that context, with just that footage to go on, I might have thought of self-injury or something.

Except, seriously, who made that footage and why?


Two theories.

1) The footage was 'burned' onto the medium with no original recording, psychically, a la The Ring. Hence, the 'recorder' would technically be SM itself.

2) Jeff or Vince. Both are technically proficient and most of the SM canon tends to suggest that the not-so-nice videos are made by crazed acolytes of SM, or those he has driven mad, or existing victims acting unconsciously. I think it's very possible one of them concealed their equipment and recorded Alex in secret, without being consciously aware of it.

I don't believe the Rake works with tools or is tweeting up a storm. I think if anyone's doing stuff with technology it's one of the boys, or SM, or a prior victim.

Much too blase. also, I'm seriously considering if Alex was dropped when he was a baby. Not only the phone thing, but just his general "meh" towards the fact that a monster not only lives in his closet but has actually attacked him.


Actually, I kinda like that Alex is having the same basic reaction to all the monster shit going down as Jeff is. Both of them are basically shutting down and shutting things out. Alex is just like his big bro. How adorably death-incurring...

Man. Evan is awesome and should be the 'lead' in videos more often.

Alex is catching stupid from the rake, maybe.

I love how Alex is all "i don't want my parents to know, so let's talk upstairs" and then ten minutes later they're chaining the door shut from the outside, like his parents will never in a million years notice that. made me giggle.

Perhaps Evan brought some sanity to the discussion? "You know, you won't have to explain this to your parents if they're dead..."

I'm pretty sure they thought the thing was still crawling around the room, too, not just somewhere in the house or whatever. So it would be an active threat.

Anyone know where the second "surveillance" clip is from? The closet? I can't really pinpoint it.

eta: Who called Vince?

What song is playing on Jeff's boom box?

ADDENDUM: I like how Evan is wearing a Bioshock 2 shirt and doesn't know what a USB drive is.
