[TRAILHEAD] Looking For Daniel

A new Tumblr blog that I found.
http://lookingfordaniel.tumblr.com/
Not sure if it's the Rake or Slenderman or something else entirely.
Let's see how it unfolds.

Agreeing with OP, very similar to Rake stories.
Looking forward to seeing where this goes.

edit: did some pooking around. There doesn't appear to be a relevant Twitter or anything.

I'm calling rake too. I've got the pm's tumblr, but I can't find other accounts in game, so it's probably just the blog for now at least.
He just posted asking if he should go to the police, and he posted the same thing a few days ago (deleted it now though) so I think he's looking for an answer to continue/start the game properly.

I suggested that he should check out his friend's house first for some clues, shall see what he says in response.

possibly not the best of ideas if his friend "locked it in" his house - but hey... it will make for a fun story Razz

got a response, turns out that he won't go into the house out of trust. Suggested he goes to the cops anyway although they probably will end up unleashing whatever it is that is in the house anyway Smile

Two days ago, I suggested he go to the house and look around outside for clues, but not go into it, since Daniel locked something potentially dangerous, inside. I should've copy/pasted the suggestion here, but I was waiting to see if I'd get a response.

I'll keep an eye on this as long as there aren't any tall men with red ties.

Welp, I decided to send him an ask that went like this:

Before all of this weird stuff started, do you remember him going anyplace strange, unusual, or that has been reported to hold something with strangeness/unusuality potential?

Think this was a good idea?

Daniel: Don't even try. Please. This may sound crazy, but we all depend on each other. And all we need to do is make sure that the doors in my house stay shut.


This makes it sound as though the PM is more involved than he thinks, and it seems like there's an implication of more "characters" to come. Definitely want to stick around to see how this turns out.

Edit: Asked him "Is the inside of the house visible from the windows? If so, try taking a camera with you and documenting what you can. There may be something in the photos and/or video that you missed the first time."

Hopefully this will yield some results.

Two updates

Quote:
First of two things.

I went to the house about an hour after I said I would. I looked through the windows of the front and back doors, and I found nothing. I peered through every window that I could reach. Nothing.

He called me last night. I'll post the conversation soon.


Quote:
Second of two things. Call.

Me: Hello?

Daniel: Hi, its Dan. I'm calling from a hotel room.

Me: Good to hear from you again. Are you still in Montana?

Daniel: Yeah. I needed to stay in a hotel room tonight.

Me: Why?

Daniel: I've been sleeping in my car almost every night for a while now. Every two or three nights, I've been staying in a low-quality motel to shower. But mostly, my home has been my car,
because I need to use my money responsibly. However, I got a full-time job at a dollar store with a decent pay, so I've been racking up some more money. I just needed to stay somewhere nicer than a car or a dirty motel room for tonight.

Me: Okay. I feel like I should come to Montana and visit you for a little bit this month.

Daniel: That would be great. But I have to go. I'll call you back in a few days, and we can talk about this.

Me: Okay. I just have a question.

Daniel: Yes?

Me: What is this "thing"?

Daniel: If I tell you, you'll think I'm insane. Bye.

Update.

Quote:
Sorry about not updating for a while.

Dan got a cheap flip phone. I'm not sure what happened to the cellphone that he used before he left, but he got a new one. We've been talking about my visit, and now I'm here in Montana. I'm supposed to meet him tonight.

I'll update soon.


I have a feeling we're going to get some answers soon.

Update
Tom is in Montana

Hey guys, i'm new to ARG's, but this one looks pretty interesting. I just read the blog, and Tom made a new entry about 18 hours ago. He said he's visiting Daniel in Montana. Hopefully we'll have some more information within the next few days.
