So Slendy has yet to kill anybody, hmmmm...

Why hasn't he yet? What if was just putting weapons out for Vince to use against HABIT and Rake? I never thought Slendy was real evil here, just very haunting and such...

I don't think Evan brought enough sharp objects. Crying or Very sad

When it cut out where it did I literally said out loud "Oh no!".

What a fucking cocktease.

I find this series so much in common with Higurashi, all the insanity and the Reiteration. If that comes to play, I wonder if they will have deja vu of all the previous universes. Maybe if deja vu did occur, it may save a future HYBRID crew from this cycle of torment.

This was a great video, though I wish we had Vin give us a little something at the end like saying if the tape ends there or not.

Another minor gripe(for every Slender Man series ever) inconsistent height. That window doesn't seem very high up. Minor.

Now that that is out the way:

-Loved Vinnie just filming cause he heard a noise. Makes sense as a way to get him back in.
-Good Slender Man appearance. Always glad to see the star of the show.
-What did Evan mean "He just wanted me to see it" or whatever he said?
-Car radio was perfection. Song is tits. Lyrics go great. Evan getting all pissed off. Perfect.
-We saw this weird camera style before. Not sure if it is a HABIT thing or a Slendy thing. Maybe both.
-It probably means something.Fuck ton of swords and knives. Guess he is setting them up in the ground for easy access once Rake shows.
-Who is filming? It doesn't seem like the same style as the car as it moves like someone ducking. Steph? A HABIT zombie? Someone else?
-Totally heard Rake coming at the end.

We need to research that sticker on the hard drive.

This just reeks of HABIT to me, unless there's a player I'm missing somewhere. I can't see Slendy editing all that footage of Evan together. Although it certainly looks like it was dropped off by Slendy. I'm a little confused why he went all Paranormal Activity on Vin...maybe he was looking for a bit to eat?

I think it could have been slenderman. It would explain why Evan shrunk back into the house; I doubt he wants to go another round with that guy.

The video in the car was probably shot from a spy cam put there by HABIT. The thing hiding from/filming Evan in the woods might have been the same thing that filmed HABIT torturing Jeff.

Wow. Habit just can't live without a soundtrack, huh?

I think the "camera man" is Habit's pet "Thousand-Mile-Stare" creature, faithfully following him around, as usual.

I honestly think ordinary people just can't see them... Jeff could hear it, but never looked at it, Daniel never looked at it, we've seen handlheld footage from the backseat of cars before, so I don't think this is an unusual situation.

As for the "poltergeist" thing, here's what could have happened...
The lights go out, Vin gets possessed for a few minutes... turns off the camera long enough for either possessed-Vin or possessed-habit to mess up the kitchen, then turns it back on and lets Vin re-possess his body.

After all, neither Vin nor Evan remembered everything they do once possessed.

My main theories/observations:

1. The "Poltergeist" was Slenderman.
2. The camera in Evan's car is one of Habit's security cameras.
3. Looks like Habit rigged the car radio to only play Sinatra, what the Hell?
4. "He just wanted me to see it" refers to the fact that Habit just wanted him to see the bodies.
5. The cameraman in the woods is probably whatever follows Habit around.
6. Oh yeah, & Evan owns a katana.

This was a good entry, I just hope that isn't the whole thing. I will be really disappointed if we don't see the Evan/Rake fight, because one of the things I love about EverymanHYBRID is that we DO get to see stuff like that.

Can anyone identify the little cartoon character on the hard drive? I have to set my video quality to the lowest setting in order to get anything to load on YouTube.

Oh holy shit.
When I watched the video earlier it ended while Evan was driving and getting trolled by the radio, and I thought that was it.
Pretty much everything on my computer has been acting up today.
Seems to be fine now, but it looks like I have several more minutes left to watch.

Please excuse my previous post if it made no sense to those of you who have seen the whole video.

It's fitting that Evan used a katana in his fight against the rake, as stabbing weapons into the field of battle for use during an impending fight is actually a tactic from Japanese history. A shogun's enemies had besieged his home, so he jabbed a dozen katanas into his floorboards and just started cutting through his enemies, discarding swords when they were reduced to uselessness and pulling fresh ones out of the floor.

It seems like that's the way it's going.

I cracked up at the poltergeisting and the radio. I love the dark humor in this series.

Poltergeist was Slendy laughing at Vin for grabbing that knife. Like a "Oh just try it mother fucker" sort of thing. Black and White camera man... I dunno. Either thousand-eye stare whatever or maybe Slendy himself? You ever notice how the b&w filming is at a higher level than eye level? Like the eye level of someone really really tall and lanky.

I don't want to sound belligerent, but I guarantee that the black-& white film is security cameras. The fact that they're so high up implies that they're planted somewhere to get a clear view of the action. They're always in places where the cast frequents. The whole point of introducing the security cameras was to show that Habit installed cameras to spy on them. And their footage often appears in Habit's videos.

That's pretty awesome. So I'm sure this can be easily found with a lyric search, but I'll share anyway. I went back to listen to the song to see why they chose it for this particular part:

"Under my skin, I've got you, deep in the heart of me, so deep in my heart, that you're really a part of me. I've got you under my skin. I tried so...not to give in. I said to myself, 'this affair, never will go so well, but why should I try to resist when, baby, I know so well...I've got you under my skin.' I'd sacrifice anything, come what might, for the sake of having you here in spite of a warm [can't make it out due to Evan yelling] every night, repeats in my ear, don't you know, little fool, you never can win. Use your mentality, wake up to reality, but each time that I do, just the thought of you, makes me stop, before I give in."

The joke is clearly that they are re-interpreting the lyrics to be Habit mocking Evan.
