We have at least two people involved in TTA videos. My guess is Brian is Hoody and Seth is the editor. That being said I'm not convince Seth is behind the camera. The question is really who else is there? Seth has been recent and from the start Brian was important. My guess is we will have a Hoody reveil before the final two videos and a TTA or account hack before the last. Last entry will have a Blair Witch type ending with Alex and TTA in the hospital. My guess is TTA will be the only one alive and will upload the finale.

Why? Dudes crazy sick and evil but can't punch a girl?

I agree with Craig Digsby. The Entry we see Brian get "killed" was never proof enough to me that he is definitely dead and, if anything, made me think he went through a similar situation as Tim and therefore probably developed the Hoody persona. Ever since that Entry I figured Brian is Hoody and that Hoody is TTA.

What we know about Hoody:

1. He's probably a guy, so that takes Jessica off the list. But again... he's probably a guy. That means that Hoody being male is very likely, but it doesn't totally eliminate Jessica from the list.
2. Alex knows who he is, so he might have been a part of the Marble Hornets crew.
3. From what we've seen in Entry #61 and #68, he's probably ToTheArk or at least involved with it. The editing style in those entries is very similar to what we see in TTA's videos. Hoody's also in Surveillance.
4. He has the answers Jay and Tim need. Or at least knows more than they do (assuming he doesn't know all the answers).
5. Dude's a creep. Following Jay and Tim everywhere for what reasons? We don't fully know.

Knowing this, we can only speculate about his motives or origins. So, who do we know that was involved with the Marble Hornets production? That was exposed heavily to the Operator before vanishing? Who would know Alex well enough to anticipate his movements, and have a motivation to be against him?

One name does come to mind... Brian.

I'm almost positive Brian is Hoody, because who else could it be? Not Jay, Tim or Alex, since they've been in the same scenes together with Hoody. Unless time travel is introduced, which it has been in Entry #65. But then again, Alex asks Hoody where Jay and Tim are in Entry #68, so scratch all three of them off them off the list.

Hoody is not Sarah. No. Just no.

Jessica is a likely candidate for Hoody, but she's still less likely than Brian.

Seth? That's what we're trying to settle here. Again, it's possible. But unless, like TheJoker said, Trosephim decide to spend a few entries building up Seth's character as more prominent before the reveal, I just can't see Hoody turning out to be him. In fact, I think it's more likely that Seth is dead.

Brian fits the criteria for Hoody. His "death" was never seen onscreen (but neither was Seth's, so who knows). We just assumed he died. But if you go back and watch Entry #51, you'll see the Operator making a brief appearance before camera distortion cuts in and we see a body being dragged away, presumably Brian's. Then Alex picks up the camera and walks away, staring off in the distance like he doesn't care (I'm not good at making jokes).

Brian could have survived. He could have been unconscious the entire time. Brian wakes up, consumed by the Operator's influence, puts on a mask and hoodie and starts stalking people. It all checks out, so that's why I'm (almost) positive Hoody is Brian.

Like almost every other theory I've read, your stance for it being Brian is no better than it being Seth. The same things happen to the both of them, we don't know where either ended up.

Brian was dragged away, but his body wasn't on the ground where he was dragged when Alex walked out. His body dissapeared.

Seth was obviously sacrificed in the same fashion. Just because you didn't see it doesn't mean it didn't happen. Brian only appears in a few more entries than Seth because he is an actor, and therefore would appear on more of the film footage. But as far as non-movie filming goes, he was in roughly the same number of entries as Seth. There could be some entries where Seth was the cameraman unknown to us (entry 20 for example) as well.

As far as character development goes, we know nothing about either one. We know Seth was willing to go into a creepy basement with Alex (no way alex could sell that as a movie location with what MH was supposed to be about), but the place Alex took Brian to was just as sketchy.. We know nothing about their characters whatsoever, neither has any more development than the other.

Interesting points about Seth possibly being Hoody but I still think it's Brian. The evidence is stronger for Brian. But I do like the idea of TTA being a 2 man operation. Brian as Hoody and Seth doing the video editing.

I think it will shock us all who it is. For some reason, I feel like Hoody may be someone completely aware of what they are doing, but they choose the disguise to hide their identity from the characters (and us).

Meaning, Hoody isn't a Masky-type persona.

And about entry 73, maybe that was intended to tell Jay/Tim that he (Hoody) is starting to need the anti-seizure meds in order to prevent him (Hoody) from turning into a Masky-persona/against helping them. Also a possible warning to Jay about him (Jay) needing to start the meds to keep sane.

Apologies if that made no coherent sense.

Actually,IMO,it made a lot of sense and was coherent.I don't know if we'll be surprised,but I'd LIKE to be surprised by who Hoody is.I think there are arguments for it being both Seth and Brian.I had the same thoughts about Hoody u/l this video because it's very timely with Jay's whole mental and physical breakdown and the symptoms and after the events of entry #72,and Tim's last Tweet about Jay not doing very well,it's very likely that Hoody u/l this (at least partially) to warn/signal Jay.
I am also of a mind that Hoody has some symptoms,but I think he's far more coherent and less affected than Tim.Tim seems to be the most profoundly affected.

I'm glad it was coherent. I've been running on low sleep these last few days. Wink

I believe that Trosephim have the abilities to make us surprised by Hoody's identity even with all the speculation. Hell, at this point Bruce could be Hoody and wears the hood to hide his bashed up face. Who knows at this point! It could be the random guy in the woods that Jay walked up to (somewhere in entries 40-50, idr). I believe it will shock all of us.

I feel like Jay's breakdown is going to lead us into uncharted territory. Even though he is the most affected, Tim seems to be the only one who thinks logically in ANY situation we have seen thus far (apart from being Masky).

I never believed that Hoody was a proxy, because he seemed so independent, so much stronger mentally than the other characters. #73 is kind of unnerving for me because I feel like the only truly sane character left is starting to take a turn for the worse.

As for his identity, I still believe it's Brian. For a while I also believed that Hoody/TTA were the same person, but now I'm not so sure. Both Brian and Seth were brought back, even if ever-so-briefly, in Season 3. That could just be to throw us off, but it could also foreshadow future plans for their characters.

Brian doesn't necessarily have to be dead. After all, Tim made it out of the hospital alive. I have the feeling that Seth is more likely to be dead, though we have no solid evidence. Seth being TTA would also explain some of the footage he had, though honestly, considering the fact that we were introduced to TTA 3 years after the Marble Hornets project was called off, it's entirely possible that Brian could have gotten a hold of some footage in that time.

I do like the idea of TTA being a Brian/Seth operation though. Smile

What I'm starting to speculate is...

Hoody is the only reliable person to us as viewers. Perhaps the messages in his videos are for US having not figured all these mysteries out yet.

Are Jay and Tim the failures? Or are WE?

Oh my God. I love this. Sometimes I feel like MH isn't enough of an ARG...but if TTA's videos were directed at us it would be AWESOME.

It makes sense, to me at least. Because sometimes the TTA videos make us go "what the fuck does that have to do with entry xyz?"

MAYBE ALL THE TTA'S TOGETHER MEAN SOMETHING
TO US
A BIG CODE TO CRACK AT THE END OF THE SERIES
SOLVED
BY THE TTA VIDEOS

Dunno.
It's a theory. Embarassed

There is such a lack of clues as to who Hoody is, I have seen a prediction thread for every character in MH. Heck, some people are saying it may be a character we haven't seen yet. In other words, no matter who Hoody turns out to be, someone has the right theory, and will probably end up boasting that they 'knew it all along', while in fact it was just a blind guess.

Hoody could be Seth and Brian, they just switch off. Maybe only one of them wants to kill Alex, and the other is trying to help Tim and Jay.
This would explain why Hoody tries to kill Alex in entry #67 and then running away from him in #68.

Then again, Hoody's intentions have never been crystal clear.
