Well, I know I haven't been here long, but here are my few theories!

1) Alex is TTA: Alex would have had access to all of the footage of the original marble hornets, everything that was recorded by Alex, and have the video editing know-how to pull it off. Does Tim have any IG knowledge of video making? I thought he was just an actor. (This has lots o' holes, I know.)

2) Alex sent the video to Jay, knew that the burned out house was a safe place to hide, and labeled the return address as the building, and has been camping there since. Coupled with the Alex=TTA theory, this explains the operator symbol in the "help" frame.

3) Masky (Tim, and possibly others, who knows) followed Alex into his hideout place, and has been there a few times. This put Alex on edge about Masky.

4) Masky isn't teamed with TTA, he wants something from him. This ties in nicely with the stalking Alex part, if Alex is indeed TTA. Alex wouldn't want anyone to ruin his possibly nefarious plot to reach the Ark, as it were. TTA was gone for, what, half a year before Alex's video(entry 26)? I think he stopped wanting to get to "The Ark", but now clearly got brought back in.

5) Alex doesn't actually know that Masky is in his basement hideout, and he just wanted J to get to a "safe place" before talking with him. Masky was snooping around in the basement while Alex was out.

6) Alex and J had just met up in this video. Alex was questioning because he knew someone was inside the building, because of the car, but was unaware who it was. He might have expected J to either come at a later date, or possibly neglect to come at all.

That's all for now, but I'm sure I'll have a few more to bring up later Twisted Evil

"Turn off the camera" and "He's not going to follow us" are audibly distorted lines, but everything else in that particular bit is crystal clear. Why is Alex's voice distorted, while Jay's voice and Tim's grunting aren't?

To the post above:

1. None of the TTA videos use original MH footage. Yes, some of the footage he has is from when they were filming, but it is from TTA's own batch of footage. TTA would have been around them, but doesn't necessarily have to have had Alex's tapes. TTA never used Alex's footage. Even if TTA were Alex, why would he communicate in such cryptic ways? Not to mention the question of what Fragments means. He seems (relatively) normal in all other instances. TTA could be Alex, but I don't think there's any conclusive evidence of this.

2. If he'd been camping there, why didn't Jay find Alex in 34? Did he just go shopping that day? Again, this is possible, but it seems a bit unlikely that Jay would go there while Alex was out, especially if he'd been camping there.

3. Firstly, if Masky knew where Alex had been hiding, and had been there a few times, why didn't he try to kill him before now? It seems unlikely that he would wait. And it's one thing to Alex on edge. The Alex we see in 35 is practically a sociopath, and I don't think if he was just on edge, he'd act this way. In fact, if he knew, why would he stay there at all? I would think he'd get moving again.

4. The main problem I have with this is that it flies right in the face of TTA's Addition video, which is audio from 27 and footage of Jay after falling down in 27, taken by someone else in the house. Nobody else was ever seen in that house except Masky. That these would be two different people just makes less sense than if they were one.

5. Masky doesn't snoop, he waits. (Though if this was Alex's hideout, this makes sense.)

6. If they had JUST met, this is plausible. (I personally don't think that, I think there's chunks of footage missing, but I could definitely be wrong.)

Oh my god. Huge thread, and for good meaning. Awesome entry. Alex shows up out of loving nowhere, and Tim is finally confirmed.

I have a theory of the story, but I'm not going to post it unless more lines are connected. Basically Slenderman is taking control of humans to do his dirty work and go places where he cannot, to find something. Makes me think that in entry 29(?), it was Tim that was the cameraman and Slenderman found.

Wow, this is a fast thread.

To everyone that responded to my post: Yeah, I think you're right. ...That's about all I have to say.

By the way, when I first watched the video this morning at 6 AM I saw something that stuck with me. Did anybody else notice the mysterious blue folder that is on that burned shelf? I'm almost positive that wasn't there before. I wonder what's in it, and why Jay didn't see it. EDIT: Actually, I think he would've noticed it eventually, and he only didn't because Alex appeared soon after.


Said the same exact thing, and it bugged me all day.

So, has anyone asked the question of how did Alex know Tim was in the house?


Ka like the fucking wind. Which is a kind of destiny for those unfamiliar with The Dark Tower.

Heh, sorry to steal your theory and all, I only read the past few pages. I guess it's kind of hard to get a theory across? Razz

Went back and checked #34, blue 'folder' was definitely not there before.

I really hope the whole debate on whether or not Alex and Jay met up previously or reunited this episode is cleared up in a later entry, or I'm going to be forever confused D:


I hope it gets cleared up just to end the debate on it. I've been sick for 3 weeks (not to harp on it) and this debate, for whatever reason (possibly related to previously stated reasons), has made me very angry.

Sorry if this has been brought up before, but did anyone else notice that the trees in the background while Jay was driving at the end were much greener than around the building? Wherever he is there, he's a ways away from that place.

Comparison:

End


Beginning


Really nice attention to detail, that's definitely something to keep in mind. Although in that freezeframe I believe the trees he's driving past are evergreens, so seasons would't really effect those. Although I like your nose for detail, Smile

It's my first time posting, so please forgive me if this has already been mentioned, but during this particularly amazing entry at 00:57 to 00:58, look at the doorway and then the light cast on the ground.
Looks awfully like Slendy keeping checks on Jay, Alex and Tim.
What do you think?


saw nothing. screen cap?


Sorry, here they are.





and the shadow,



Look, it's like a half silhouette of a body leaning around the doorframe. Plus, when you watch the video back again the head appears to tilt slightly.
One thing that makes me maybe think I'm being paranoid about Slendy is that the figure appears to be wearing a t-shirt, check the flicked sleeves.[/img]


Yeah I'm going to go ahead and say that, if you're referring to the shadow in the doorway, it's a broken wooden door. You can see it quite clearly in entry 34: http://i55.tinypic.com/2s85z02.jpg

And as for those of you wondering about the green folder, that too is visible in 34: http://i56.tinypic.com/281st3r.jpg It is in a different location, though.

Also, Tim is a sexy beast: https://s-hphotos-snc6.fbcdn.net/180333_10150114061519889_506844888_6019691_7620156_n.jpg

Oh, I see it. Do you think any attention should be paid to its move in location, or is it just something OOG? Maybe Masky was rifling through the things in the house before he attacked? Or maybe it just got moved by the actors...

Actually, watching the two vids, it hasn't moved at all. There is, however, an additional folder that wasn't there before.

35: http://i56.tinypic.com/2qkp1mg.jpg

34: http://i53.tinypic.com/2qi2r9z.jpg

I personally don't think it's anything important.

I remember during the interview they did, they stated that shooting on location was often tricky because they were constantly trespassing, and being told to leave. I don't think the would have had the time to get to a location, and place objects around to cause speculation. Chances are they're just trash, but keep this on the back burner for sure!

I feel like everyone is overlooking the very important fact that this building was the return address of the Entry#26 package.
The package that had a tape in it.
A tape that ended in one word: "HELP."
That "help" was written in very TTA-esque styling.
Assuming that Timasky = tta, he may have been asking for help, and was startled when he saw Alex there in addition to J. That's why he ran by J to get to/attack Alex.

Any merit to this idea?

I agree on Alex not killing Tim, but simply breaking/damaging his leg.

http://i763.photobucket.com/albums/xx279/Jono0120/alexbroektimleg.jpg?t=1297892531

Just the fact that Masky was in 33, and that the angle looks like Alex would bring the rock directly down on Tims leg instead of his face

EDIT: Also, "He's not going to follow us anymore!" is a sensible thing for him to say if he's crushing his leg.

Actually, I had been thinking the same sort of thing. I mean, assuming that Masky is also the person who planted the combination for Jay's safe in Jessica's room, then he wanted him to find this tape. He also didn't seem to be attempting to hurt Jay too badly during their altercation in the hotel, so it's quite possible that Tim isn't the bad guy.

Maybe Alex is the one Jay should be afraid of.
