I know its a bit early to be wanting it but...Where is our entry #41 we need it more nightmare fuel.


They're going to make us wait, and wait, and wait, until we're already mostly insane, then they're going to give it to us.

It's like a drug, I swear...

The description is base64 for "behind the curtain"

Shocked ...That's the second TTA video in the row with a base64 description...

...TTA is MOCKING me!

...anyways, back on topic. Haven't read the earlier posts, but does anyone else think that "behind the curtain" refers to Entry #1? The last was alluding to Entry #4... I think TTA is telling us to look at the first locations where the Operator was sighted.

read back a few posts...Someone looked at my crazy rant about a slendy stick figure with an operator symbol head hidded by a tree, there were a couple operator symbols on trees, and mentioned the behind the curtain thing... Honestly your idea has a curtain in it. I like it already... but are they nice curtains or bad curtains. This crazy rant is brought to you by the letter ⦻. Honestly if I seem goofy I am tired i have been up for 2 days unrelated to MH. too much stuff on my mind.

Captured images from last entry do have him looking like he has some facial features.

The facial features could have been from an OOG reason... Like HD...

OOG? I think that's baloney. He has video editing software. And it's the most important part of the entry. They would have shot that scene several times. If he didn't like the footage, he wouldn't use it. If it didn't look right, he'd edit it. Where did Spongebob go? Such a huge staple of the series like an Operator encounter is going to be checked dozens of times, especially the way it looks.

It's also possible that the curtain is another reference to the Ark. Apparently, the Ark of the Covenant was hidden behind a curtain in a holy place.

Accepting you have a problem is the first step. Your second step needs to be identifying whether you have a problem with fire and hobo's being together or just hobos. But this isn't exactly the discussion for that.

I would've gone on with it but on January 18, 2008 some bigass space frog levelled the city and filled the subway with obvious reskinned CGI warrior bugs from Starship Troopers.

But Troy's not like the Tribetwelve dude; he doesn't need to use CGI to make Slendy scary at a distance.

Bad curtains. Very bad curtains.

Both TTA video descriptions might be (and I'm starting to think are) referring to places the Operator was in Entries 4 and 1 respectively. "see you saw you" would be referring to the seesaws the Operator walked past in Entry 4 before the camera cut... also, the Operator had pushed one of the seesaws down from right behind Alex's back (maybe to grab Alex's attention?); meanwhile, "behind the curtain" would refer to Entry 1, when Alex pulled back the curtain, looked around, and spotted the Operator. Both locations uniquely showed the Operator moving, rather than standing still as he usually does... but that may not be relevant.

Both these messages were written in base64 and in the video descriptions of the most recent TTA videos, so they already have that much in common... if the next TTA video is another base64 message referring to another hiding spot, we'll know for sure...

You know exactly how the videos are made?

Also, Computer-Generated Imagery is not the same as computer-altered or computer-removed. Just because he doesn't have flailing tentacles doesn't mean he's not touching up a few frames to erase a nose.

What about the entry where Slendy was standing either in Alex's room or just outside it, behind the curtain?

...Something with a balcony entry # 7, if it wasn't damaged something about a tower, or a basement?

freyathedark wasn't that a door?

Looks like long hair coming off of the figure. Alex has long hair, but not that long. Know who else has long hair? Jessica has long hair.

To the man behind the curtain thing, maybe it's showing that the Operator...well, is the operator. He is controling things to his whim. He's just toying with these people.

Or if my theory (in the Slender Man Weakness thread) is correct that he is an elemental based creature (with water being his M.O.), he could be using the characters to finish his own plans?

In which case, totheark just wants to go...to the ark...to escape the coming destruction that the Operator is going to bring (promise of floods, Deluge, desire for arks, it makes sense).

Maybe the Operator is the end of the world?


Long time lurker here. I really agree with what randoman said here though. I have to bring something up after reading this whole thread: Why would totheark need to draw this scene? I'm guessing they didn't have a camera yet. It seriously looks most likely to me that Jessica was out in the woods when Jay ran into the Operator- she draws herself afraid and draws what she saw out there, then she picks up the camera and voila! we have actual film instead of drawings. I'm not saying Jessica was totheark the whole time, but she seems to be accidentally drawn into this whole Operator business.

No, I'm thinking of the one where Alex gets out of bed, goes downstairs, checks out some windows, goes into an office-y room, walks right past Slendy, and goes back to bed. At the end, there's a shadow and the drawings on the wall act like they're in a breeze.

Okay I really wish I could take a capture of this and out it on here, but I can't. Anyways if you look at the very top right of the picture when it is first shown (at 0.04) it looks as if that could be a stick figure in the tree. Then the text flashes "did you see me". Next is shows a wider shot of the same image. Now the tree is in the middle of the screen and the stick figure is on the upper half of it, right above the curve. I could be totally off, but maybe that is TTA hiding in the tree and he actually drew himself into the picture?
Also maybe the fact that at first there is no tree in the picture and then afterwards it is cropped in means that TTA was hiding watching that spot even before Jay showed up? I don't know just speculation.
