just like seeing Hoody seemed to make him uncomfortable being there again.


Tim didn't seem to react all that strongly to the hooded guy. If anything it was Jay's bolting after him that made him uncomfortable.
Kinda of like "What the hell does this have to do with site scouting? What the hell is really going on? Are you fucking with me?"


Yeah, I first got the impression he couldn't even see him..
HEHEHE me too.

Tim definitely remembers something going down in the Annex, and Jay lying to him and leading him in there is a surefire way to get Tim to think he's going to pull a Kralie.


And the fact that Jay said "I just want to finish what Alex started" Even though he was talking about the movie, Tim could think he meant finish what Alex did to him Entry #56.

1. Weird audio burp around 5:30. Probably just regular fun with cameras, but I do like how MH has now made me twitchy about such things.

2. Waiting so hard for Tim to elbow Jay in the face. Not necessarily out of masky malice, but just because he's a terribly ungrateful little tourist.

3. I know GameGodOfAll has a point in that Hoody led Jay back to the main building, where Tim wanted to go in the first place (oy, didn't Tim try to get Alex down in the basement...?), but it still feels like Tim and Hoody are at cross purposes here. Not enemies, ready to wage war with rebar and rocks, but it looked as if Tim knew he was there and was in a mighty fine rush to move Jay along in the opposite direction, and he objected when Jay took off following where Hoody was obviously leading.

Actually, come to think of it, the whole 'noise in the bathroom' bit kind of reminded me of Tim's attempt to ambush Alex in the house...

It also reminded me of them luring Alex somewhere, then trying to crack his head open. I wasn't so sure it was benevolent.


That too.

As it becomes more an more apparent that TTA is trying to help J so they can accomplish their own goals, I have to wonder why they don't just sit down and talk to him.


I'm not all that sure TTA is trying to help Jay. They're feeding him info and maneuvering him into place to accomplish whatever their ends are, but it doesn't mean they're benevolent or on his side. He could simply be useful to their larger goal. "Go down the passage and search for traps, possibly by setting them off" useful.

Location: How should I know?

Does anyone else find it odd that hoody seems to hang around the same places as slendy? He went to rosswood and grabbed jays camera despite slendy being there mere minutes before and now turns up at the hostpital, the site of the most slender attacks to date. This goes against entry 45 where hoody and masky shit themselves and take off at the firs hint of slender-distortion.

Also I doubt the tunnel leads to the basement of doom since Troseph were told they shouldn't trespass there any more in season 1.

Well Hoody is in the third floor window of the hospital at the end of the entry, the only way he could have got there that fast was if that tunnel connected to the building, and since we know the hospital has a basement (which they went out of their way to mention - implying it's where seth was taken since brian and tim were sacrificed nearby), it would make sense that the tunnel connects to the basement. It probably won't look the same, but I'm pretty sure that's gotta be the same basement.

As far as hoody appearing where the operator has been, I'd like to think that in entry 41 he brought Jay's camera back knowing the operator was gone, and wanted jay to know what happened in case he got mind wiped. and in 58, he goes to the top floor of the hopsital to check on tim and jay from a distance, but also probably try to persuade jay to go up there (although jay is oblivious and seemed to miss him)

At 9:55 Tim and Jay talk about Hoody and Tim says something like "There are people wondering around here all the time, kind of like we're doing right now." Was Tim aware of someone other than Alex the last time he was here?

Every bloody entry.

Anyway, as for Timnesia, it might be something as simple as his brain being well aware that SOMETHING about this place is bad news, and so he just knows that he's had enough of the place, but can't quite realize why, as it has been suppressed (or slender-wiped).

His natural instincts are working fine, but it's unclear to him WHY he feels apprehensive.

... But I still think he's faking, so if I'm right about that, the above point is moot.

Fantastic entry, although I'm suprised it was described as filler. It furthered the mystery concerning Tim and told us that Hoody seems to still active (even without his partner?) and seems to be trying to lead Jay somewhere.

Perfectly paced, another great performance from Tim and Troy and still so damn scary. I'll be honest, most of Marble Hornets season one and two, although a very intresting story which I was hugely involved in, didn't shake me up that much. Season three has been constantly terrifying! Smile

You know, I don't see Hoody in the window. I see the end of a board sticking out the window. Could be me though. Having been in a few abandoned sites or construction zones, that's just what it looks like to me.

yeah looking at it again you might be right

i think i finally figured out what was getting to me. it seems that they find these dilapidated locations, and adjust their story to fit the location, instead of the other way around. now that i've realized that, i might not be as harsh in judging story mechanics in the future

Tim burned the hospital, and Jay's old apartment down. just sayin


I'd just like to mention that the TV has the operator "teleport in" distortion occur as it pans over the crowd. This doesn't really confirm anything except that someone that Jay obviously knew/someone that was being tracked by the operator was there watching it burn down, meaning it had to be alex, tim, or hoody imo (since the operator can't light a lighter with his nubs)


The Operator was standing among the crowd of people there.


So,thoughts on this entry now that I'm awake:

I hadn't noticed Tim starting to limp. Good catch. (Wait, is this real? Does he limp in this entry?)
Essentially a straight-forward entry. J and Tim go exploring and find Hoody and quite possibly the entrance to Ye Olde Basement of Doom.
During the first part, I kept hoping to see something behind that pillar or whatever Tim was leaning against. J did keep moving the camera to the right, and there were plenty of trees.
Hopefully we'll get a totheark response soon.
(Though, on that note, nothing Hoody did (presuming Hoody is (or is part of) TTA) seemed to merit the "One day you will understand" line....though that might just be referring to, "One day you'll understand what that annex is for, what that tunnel leads to" and so on)

So, first off,
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Yeah, Hoody was there to greet them!


Also, I'm definitely getting an Alex the Evil Filmmaker Vibes from Jay, which makes me wonder, is Jay going to go down the same path? Is this film just that bad that the mere mention of it attracts an eldritch horror? Wink

A few more things of note, which I know were mentioned on this thread but I want to add to-

Tim grew up in Rosswood, as did Jessica. Now, at the end of Entry 22 Alex said he was going back home. Next we hear of him he's living in Rosswood. Did he grow up there too? (Or not. He could have been referring to going back to his Season 1 home, after which he gave Jay the tapes and noped away.) Either way, I do find it interesting Alex wound up in Rosswood after supposedly trying to escape the Operator.

For that matter, I'm wondering about Ye Olde Abandoned Hospital O'Doom. 1.) What type of hospital was it? Because if it was a mental health place, then 2.) Tim could have been there at some point in his past, which would explain his Bad Vibes even during the original filming of MH. That's grasping at straws, I'll admit, since we don't know what the hospital was for.

On the subject of mental health clinics, Rosswood seems like a pretty small place, but they have their own mental health clinic. Is there just an abundance of people with mindwipey issues? (Again, grasping at straws...but wild speculation is fun.) (Which leads to massive wild crazy speculation that the whole town has been terrorized for a while by the Operator. Highly doubtful, but fun to think about nonetheless.)

Now that I've gotten all my wild theories out of my system, I feel much better. Very Happy

I think I remember Jay saying somewhere that he's taking Tim at his word about not remembering things, and he hasn't been trying to jog his memory or anything because he doesn't want to ruin that little bit of peace for him.

The town with Rosswood park had a little village, remember the end of 52?

Also the end of entry 22 was most likely Alex lying to make himself look innocent, it's unlikely that he was trying to escape the operator. He didn't even seem that scared in entry 26. Plus, we don't know that his apartment was near Rosswood. The only confirmation we have is that Jessica/Amy's apartment was nearby (the hotel was nearby according to 43, and jay said rosswood was nearby that hotel in the beginning of season 2) - however alex's apartment was an entirely different location that we don't know the location of (correct me if i'm wrong)

Basically any time Jay points something out in black and white text and refers to something from a past video, in an entry, it almost always ends up being true. Suspicions through tweet however, sometimes turn out to be false.





Something else I thought of (nitpicking fine details for no reason cause i'm bored) - in order for jay to find his way to the abandoned house, he had to have a gps of some sort (car or "current location" via his laptop) if he did have a gps, he'd have known where he was in the season 2 opener. a car gps would have shown his recent history which would have led him right to alex's place lol.
