I've been mulling over the issue regarding the worm. Especially the odd capitalisation of 'That worm', and with regard to Dr. Vincent's earlier statement about the Shadows, namely that they will not stop until their ultimate aim is realised; contact with the Devil/Satan. So I searched around for references to Satan being named Worm... And found very little. However, I did find this article:

http://voices.yahoo.com/are-wicked-resurrected-as-worms-7487062.html

A discussion of whether the Bible states that those tormented in Hell (which would kind of be first choice route one, if you wished to enter discourse with Satan) are resurrected as worms. The capital in That worm, makes this a specific worm, and makes me wonder if perhaps one of the Shadows has made this ultimate sacrifice in an attempt to reach the group's ultimate aim, and is now revered within the group above all others. It then made me wonder... Do we know whose blood created the stain on the spital door? It must've been there a long time to have the shadows accept that someone touched it when they were younger (unless at any pointy ou gave them your age?), so to be there that long, it must've been an awful large amount of blood! If it came from one person rather than say a ritual and a pint from everyone, then it's almost certain they died of this wound, and as the shadows seem preoccupied with this stain, I think there is a chance that this could be linked to the worm of which they speak.

ok so the text hidden in the .png file.

apparently most of the tools i ran it through said it was corrupted. sadly.

The only text i could manage to extract from it was

WEE
___ '__ if
__\ _ __ _ _
' 'r _


yeah so its looking like the file was corrupted... sadly.

i recieved a message from jo after returning the picture to her ..


Quote:
Hi Sweetie,
Thank you sooooo much I was very worried that he would find something out he should not have done....he is not ready yet!!
I'm glad I have it back; although I'm not sure if he is familiar with 'Foible Shim' so it might of been OK.
Best to stay safe though Child, so I thank you again.
xxx


I has a quick look on google, however i couldnt find much. In all honesty it was a VERY quick glance! lol I will hit it again this afternoon.

Just a curious thing.... in the video of experiment 2, when the bowl is placed on top, the reflection in the bowl shows the face of the person shooting the video..

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
it looks amazingly like anthony black


coincidence?

I know someone bought the book from anthony black.. is this thing described in there??

Also, on the shadows site, a link on ebay for a book:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Strange-old-Book-with-notes-Recollections-of-a-Society-Clairvoyant-Rare-/321012069538?

Too steep a price for my liking, but any of you wealthy enough to purchase it?

Well done Natalie,

Perhaps you too will drink from St Ruffin's Well and gain 'the Sight'...

All in good time...

We will let you think about that...

TS


dunno what to say back to that

but any way jo ( the dr wife) has just joined facebook. with a old Victorian picture as her profile, wonder if she fits in with the locket


ask them how you can drink from the well when it is burried and unreachable.. lets see if they will guide you to some water to give you the sight..

As for Anthony, I feel like it's likely he's the PM, and we weren't meant to see that reflection. But if not, it could be James Vincent is an alias? But why? Idk, think it's oog

Wish someone would buy that book though, they seem so eager to keep it to themselves. Also, anyone know anything about the seller?

I bought the Anthony Black book, and am convinced that it is fully OOG and unrelated, no reference to either experiment, or ideas about how this could be done.
For the sake of the game, I suggest we don't start thinking behind the curtain, and accept at face value what's been said, that Anthony Black is unofficially investigating with the Doctor, which would explain his presence.

With regards to the eBay auction... The inscription in the picture states 'that worm' not 'That worm'. Significant?

Some more interaction:

Quote:
James, how are you feeling? I am slightly worried about you...


Quote:
Please don't. I feel fantastic...so powerful...so strong...I have been busy over the weekend testing my new abilities. I find them both fascinating...and scary...I...killed my cat...it was an accident...but I feel terrible. At least I think I did...she was under my legs getting in the way whilst I was trying out my abilities...I got angry with her...and something happened...there was...what felt like a rush through me...and she died....

I need some time to think things over...I'm going back to the Woods now...I feel...I feel...drawn to them...maybe find answers...

I thought I saw our daughter Sarah...but that's impossible...

I'll speak to you soon my friend.


Quote:
Please be careful, I am still worried.. please do not give in to the worm.. Sarah cannot come back.


Immediately thereafter a message from Jo:

Quote:
I have nothing to say to you.

I don't even know you.

I am a very private person.

Stay away from James...we wont warn you again..



I will keep you guys posted on this topic..

indeed this was how i found the site.

However, I am considering buying the book.

I contacted jo telling her i was planning the book and she messaged me with the following

Quote:
I don't want you to get hurt. You are the only friend I have. Don't buy it; please....
If you are truly my friend...then please don't...
I'm following James tonight...I want to see what happens in the woods....
He hurt me last night...
I'm scared...
I'll speak to you soon sweetie xxx


I am now of course very tempted to have a bid on the book! LOL if someone tells you not to then you automatically want to! lol.... it has 4 days to go.. Will wait till the last min because i'm not paying 150 quid! lol
