 		This looks really interesting. I won't be able to, but will anyone be able to stay up to see what happens to the site? I'l look tomorrow, but some things may have changed by then.

 		Site changed: Has some sign-ups for updates, including a facebook and twitter (facebook has two photos from the videos, I think, twitter was empty when I checked). The facebook is a movie page, so that's pretty much that. Also says Copyright ELSE Films at the bottom of the site. Links here.

Has a video clip that's a compilation of the youtube videos with some of the comments on them. This is under the updates, which says:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Mr. Tom has only had an internet presance for three weeks and he's already stirred up quite the controversy. Various paranormal forums and blogs have been talking about his sightings videos; some people feel sorry for him, others are afraid. Some of the sightings of him on YouTube have reached several thousand hits. Check out the video to see some of the highlights.
This UPDATES page will contain further Mr.Tom stories, rumours and controversies.
To stay updated please join us.
Thank You!


Has another clip that is somewhat disturbing, seems that this is going to definitely be a horror movie.
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
A shaky camera in the dark, held by a woman calling out to "Elizabeth". She hears things breaking, and finds Elizabeth in a kitchen, back to us, in a posture that indicates shit ain't good, with blood on her. She turns around, and it shows her with a butcher knife in her mouth, point up into the roof of her mouth. Our nameless cameraperson tries to get her to put the knife down, while the camera shoots at everything but Elizabeth's face. Then .. Elizabeth attacks her, maybe? She certainly seems to take the knife out of her mouth, maybe she cuts through her face as she does so, it isn't clear. There is screaming. Distortion throughout the entire video, as if it's an old VHS tape or something.


Seems that whatever this Elizabeth is doing may be what Mr. Tom did, and is how he got the way he is, perhaps? While they don't show much gore, I'm not that big into the sort of horror movie that clip gave me a feel for, so I don't know how interested I'll be in the end product. Still an interesting viral campaign.

This just went full on decent production value. Like, this actually looks okay so far.

Anyway, I came up with a prediction on what this movie (assuming it's actually a movie) is going to be about.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Alright, so there are people going batshit insane because of something, and it's causing them to cut parts of their faces off. Whatever is causing them to do this is probably sticking with them, and making them go even more insane.

Now Mr. Tom though, he WAS affected by the batshit-insane-cut-off-your-face thing, but he somehow was able to escape from it. (like he was exorcised or some shit like that) He still cut off a part of his face though, and what we are seeing is now-healed face. And now based on the sites countdown graphic of the 3 people in the distance, I'm guessing that there are at least 2 others like him.


I don't know though, it's really still too early to come up with elaborate theories >_<

I watched the video many times, and at first i was of the same mind as you, I thought the camerwoman was attacked, but after a few views, I cam to the realization that he was most likely panic and shock of seeing the girl rip the knife out, most likely taking part or all of her jaw with it.

good job finding a link that give us access to objective, we clearly shouldn't be in that part of the web yet. There is a video, ill watch it and post my analysis tomorrow.

Heres what it says in case we get locked out

On October 1, 2012 I, REDACTED, need a minimum of $100,000.00 to tell Mr. Tom's story. Every additional penny will go into making this THE MOST INCREDIBLE FILM POSSIBLE.
Thank You!

Sincerely,
REDACTED

 		I'm skipping the first 30 sec or so of the video cus Its hard to describe what is being said.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
In that video, it is hard to make out cus of voicemasking, but he asks Tom if he is an exorcist. He then asks him about his gift, in which Tom puts up his hands and the person filming says "your hands" as if he is asking if his gift is in his hands. He then asks Tom if he is a murderer, in which Tom replied by kicking the person filming.

I don't know if I'm hearing this correctly, but I think there is another person named "Eli" or some variation of. I believe he takes care of Tom in some fashion. He says that he has gotten permission from "Eli" to place cammeras around the house in order to document what transpires and their lifestyle.

The video ends with the person filming asking for donations in order to make this documenary.

Or what i thought was the ending, the video goes black, but the man still talking about exorcism and demonic possesion. And what we don't know and what isn't being told.

I just heard Eli's last name is Dante.

After the main video is over, we see the cameraman and Tom talking, but this time Tom is speaking, but through a computer. He asks Tom why he wants to make a movie, and Tom replies "I don't want to make a movie" and repeats "absolutely not"


If this video stays up I'll strike all this out, but I thought I may aswell post it.

 		I wonder if this is going to end up being a real life Kickstarter kind of thing where they ask for donations to get the IRL film completed...

This seems likely, though I think they'll keep even the asking as an in-game sort of thing, like, talking about it as a documentary, as opposed to a fictitious account.

 		Hey guys, first post here at unFiction.

Right clicking and saving as on the picture that links to the first video on http://www.whoismrtom.com/footage/ reveals the image file to be named: Lisbeth-OMeara-Tapes2_HQ256colours_640-480.

In the video the camera person calls the woman with the knife in her mouth Elizabeth, so I'm guessing her full name is Elisabeth O'Meara. Google hasn't turned up anything yet, let me know if you guys find something.

 		these videos scare me right the fuck out, I have to watch them with Storage Wars blaring so I don't piss myself. That video where the expriest/exorcist is interviewed, and then at the end where the guy places his camera on the car and you see 3 black figures standing on the hill. Two of wich seem to have a scythe, or pointy hat, or pointy nose. I'm assuming they are ment to be demonic.
