Wow. That's a lot to take in.

I wonder if the Rake appearance at the start of the first video - the one HABIT was meant to have e-mailed to the guys - is meant to be HABIT's way of "showing them the instruments"? You know, the old torturer's trick of letting the victim see what's going to be used on them first to heighten the fear.

I liked the "who could win a rabbit?" bass and ukelele cover at the beginning. xD

OH GOD MY BRAAAAIIIINNNSSSSS

Okay, I only heard about two thirds of Candleverse, so I hope for a transcript. That being said, off the top of my head- I guess I wasn't totally off about "past iterations" of the guys when we began talking about this in the fall. But are the Candleverse EMH the source? They refer to the trials as soon beginning in the current iteration - which they are not, but our EMH likely is - so they can see into our universe, or something. But even with another iteration on the griddle, they do not cease to exist. They're right there, sans Steph. Why? And who's filming - SLONDORMON?

Also, on the iterations - presumably the one in Evan's photograph and in the Baldpate footage here was the "American Legion," rock-'n-roll Jimmy Corenthal the Candleverse boys mention. Not our Corenthal. Not Dr. Corenthal. Just an iteration. He can be many types, but he is always and only James Corenthal.

I can't begin to deal with this until we have a transcript. So yeah. Random thoughts. I just would like to know if we can avoid filling the Candleverse up with excess college students another time around.

Uuuurrrrghhh EMH you make waiting worthwhiillee

Okay, at about 1:10 in this video, it looks like there's something rising and falling behind Jeff. Probably just the focus on Evan's camera being all weird, but I figured I'd point it out.

More Rake!? Oh god the way it moves...*shudder* Not to mention, I'm sitting in a dark room now (my friend went to sleep, sob), and in an attempt to mute my volume in case of loud noises, i ended up turning it higher. Nearly pissed myself, again.

Also, the scenes of them in the basement, talking about the Rake and Alex...that's the same room where Evan went Psycho in Slender Man...just wanted to say. Kufu.

What did Evan say to Vince about the camera...? It sounded like..."that fucking thing next to you." Who exactly is recording? Daniel still?

And...That guy in the field looked a lot like 'James', though that's probably needless to say.

So much to take in at once, my brain isn't working right...

Yeah, right after the cuffs they talk about hearing how Corenthal died, and then go and say your above bit.

Yeah, I saw the thing rise up behind Jeff (Only noticed it after you mentioned it, though, so thanks for that), and it definitely looks like a shadowed person, though it doesn't look like there would be enough shadows to completely obscure the face. I also heard the thing about whoever was filming. Maybe a minion of Slendy or HABIT?

Excuse me for the incoming wall of text but I wanted to see if I could pull all the important things out of this.
First the -.-. video:
0:00-0:10-Pretty sure they are trying to play "Who can win a Rabbit?".
0:11-0:39-I assume they are in the ark here (see below) also at 0:15, handcuffs. Maybe to restrain Evan when he is being inHABITed?
0:40-1:13-Basically Alex is till crazy and they can't figure out why the Rake hasnt taken them while they were in the open.
1:14-1:19-Back to the Ark
1:20-1:36-OHGODWHATTHEFUCKISTHAT! (the rake)
1:37-2:01-Evan and Jeff talking to their friend Daniel(Dale?) about sparky. lol at Evan "Spark got hit by a car. A very mean, a very scary car."
2:02-2:20-Ark
2:21-2:45-More rake talk. Making plans and shit.
2:45-2:55-Jessie(Steph?)
2:56-3:29-More Ark stuff. Also 3:17 the whole time being skewed thing. This is why i believe they are in the Ark in the clips with the candles.
3:30-4:26-Rake talk, Ark stuff. 4:08 Evan refers to the trials like they have not happened yet. Mabye they are a little in the past at this point of the Ark.
4:27-4:45-Discussing the Rake's motives.
4:46-5:00-I think Evan references the Doctor. Cant tell with these shitty speakers.
5:01-5:06Jeff/Alex's parents?
5:07-5:15- More rake talk.
5:16-5:40 Sounds like Evan attacked the Doctor. Also Jeff mentions that he "wandered for 30 years for us." I think?
5:41-6:22-Talking about Alex being unstable and talking about the Rake climbin'in yo windows and snatchin' yo arms up.
6:23-6:58-Back in the Ark, talking about stuff. I cant really follow.
6:59-7:06-More underwater footage from the hidden videos?
7;07-7:13Jeff and Alex's parents.
7:14-7:18-More underwater footage. Looks like we finally see who/whatever that was underwater come to the surface but I cant make it out.
7;19-7:27-WTF windmill?
7:27-7:31-Preeeeeeeeety sure Evan is inHABITed at this point.
If you have anything to add or something is wrong with the above information please share. I just wanted to get my thoughts down.
and i am way too lazy to do the other video. sorry.
EDIT:Yeah scratch that. Thats more like the doctor and his wife. not jeff and alex's parents.

First post! (Though have been lurking for more than a year)

So, during the second Corenthal scene, the woman (his wife?) can be heard saying "When Alex was out of middle-school we built our cabin out here."
Does that mean he is part of the Mining Town 4. But if so, wouldn't that make it 5?

Edit: Actually she says "WHEN he is out of middle-school we WILL build our cabin out here"

Then, after that, they say that when this iteration ends they'll have some more time to spend with him, but it won't be the American Legion Corenthal. Presumably, then, it'd be the current one. So I guess our good Doctor goes through the cycles a little differently; while the Candle Boys remain, he does not. Possibly his death leads to the current version of him being stored in wherever they are (shall we call it Candle Cove?) until a new version is incarnated? Or perhaps it's all the same man, in a sense, just being overwritten to fit with each cycle. Why either of those things would happen, I have no idea. But it sounds like every version of Corenthal, or at least the two we know of, pretty much serves the same protective role towards the children. Which makes me wonder, if the Doctor was the Corenthal for the Fairmount cycle, is he also meant to serve for this cycle? Because...yeah, fantastic job there, Doc.

But I'll be honest, I don't know if any of that makes sense. I...can't really begin to wrap my head around any of this right now. xD

I think whatever was our point of view in the candleverse isn't a camera. I think portions of these hidden videos has always been us 'watching' the visual input from someone or something. I believe this was suggested WAY back in the first few months by somebody, and I've always felt like it had some merit. this video seems to heavily imply that the cameraman is not in fact a camera man, and is some being watching them. Jeff seems to refer to the uncameraman's 'thousand mile stare' after the boys acknowledge its presence... maybe a creature with either inhuman black eyes, or a complete lack of eyes, making the gaze even creepier?

Also, did it look to anyone else suspiciously like it went from night, to day, and possibly back and forth a few times in the candleverse during the video? Or is it just the camera adjusting to the poor lighting conditions?

That's the camera adjusting to the lighting, yeah.

I really can't tell what to make of the Ark footage, I was never a fan of the "iterations" theory, but there's no other explanation for what I'm seeing. Also, why is Jeff dressed like Slenderman?

Amusing note: Evan calls it "The HABIT".

Well, considering none of the Corenthal papers have ever mentioned Alex, I think it's much more likely that those are Alex and Jeff's parents, not the Corenthals. I'd also like to take the moment to point out that the field they're in really reminds me of the one surround the lone tree from A Day in the Life and several other videos.

Edit: Also, at 7:10, near the base of the tree, does anyone else think that they see a green man standing there?

Yes, I also going to mention the similarity to the "lonely tree" that Jeff and others are seen at in 77of76.avi. So, perhaps that is why Jeff seems to have an attachment to it.
However, how long ago did his parents die? If Alex was still in middle-school and is in highschool now, that would have to be atleast 3 years. I can not recall if it is stated on the letter Jeff sent Grieck.
