Good video overall, but in my opinion it had too much "fat". Could have had less of the walking and Hector saying "This is a bad idea." or "We should head back." While it is a valid point and concern, it doesn't need to be shown and expressed 20 times in a row. (Okay that is an exaggeration of how many times, but it sure felt like it.)

But yeah. Following a crazy guy waving a knife around while giggling to himself into the deep woods where no one knows where you are is generally a very bad idea. Props to the actor playing Xander for portraying a generally disarming and creepy crazy guy.

That all said, I am liking the idea of an endlessly repeating cycle of a person/entity dying and being reincarnated and being chased by Slender Man for some reason. Can't wait to see what is going to be done with it in the future.

I love Keratin Garden and the video No. 32 - Option 1 was bloody well done but the earlier part of the series, where black dog was involved, was more original/intriguing.

To be fair, we did choose the Ajax storyline instead of having Story follow the Black Dog.

This is the risk when bringing in the audience - but interesting nonetheless.

 		Slenderman is back in? If so, I might have to give this another go.

 		Just started watching, marathoned through in a couple days. I'm liking it quite a bit; it seems to have some unique elements with the dog and Slender's actions. (I also tried the drip manicure and it looks great!)

As has been mentioned it's nice to see a female centered series. It's also nice that there are some non white characters.

I'm really liking the mythology that's being set up, and an evil pharmaceutical company is a fun touch. I'm not sure about Hector, it seems like he could become a major character, but he also seems kind of bland. I thought it was interesting that Story questioned his motivation for searching out answers. Most people would probably just say; it's his sister, duh. But it makes sense that an only child would question it more.

I think a crossover can be good for a story (pun not intended), like for EMH and TribeTwelve where Corenthal connects them.

And Habit helping out Firebrand.


Story just serves as a Deus ex Machina in the crossover.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
To sum it up, they meet in the park, she gets attacked, and they take her back to their house. There she miraculously knows how to read the Arabic text in their book, and tells them what it says. Slenderman attacks, and that's kind of it.


The more I think about this crossover, the more pointless it becomes. This one in particular was a little stupid, but a lot of the EMH TribeTwelve ones are kind of reasonable.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Also, the EMH iteration theory will tell you why they aren't haunted by anything but Habit, the Rake, and Slenderman. I'm assuming the collective doesn't exist outside of TribeTwelve because they don't need to. Story and Lee aren't supposed to become God demons in the future, so they don't have anything to do with the collective.


Huh. I liked this crossover better than EMH-TT. Not quite as much now that
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Hybrid helped Firebrand
but the crossover where they got together and linked Dr Corenthal to each webseries... it was really pointless. They sat at a table, had a short conversation and went on their way. Nothing was really introduced that couldn't have been done without the crossover, or without meeting face to face. At the time I was really annoyed I had to watch a whole nother series just for that.

The KG-WF crossover was not necessary for KG but I think it did add evidence that Slender is sort of protecting Story, or saving her for its own purposes, which supports the confrontation with the guards at Ajax.

 		The crossover would of been better if she actually managed to do something more with the book than just say it talks about death and stuff. Like work out what it's purpose is and stuff.

 		Hm. Not a whole happened,
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
but it's good that he found the cooling towers. Guess next they're going to try and find a way in? He is the son, might be able to trick a security guard. Then again, trying to break in last time didn't work too well.

Oh wait, Story gave him the password to her channel? That's... interesting. Actually not sure how to feel about that

Story finds a flash drive, whoo. Reminds me in Marble Hornets when Jay finds a tape. At least it's a 'half' entry.
