Haunted Camera and totheark

[Serum]

I'm Serum, and I approve this "scary ghost in the machine" theory.

For two reasons:

One, because people all over this board seem to think the Operator can be explained by "science." It cannot. It is not from this world, and if it's not of extraterrestrial origin, it's from an entirely different plane of existence-- a world of pure chaos, pure evil... I can hear them chanting, "liberate tutate ex inferis..."

Two, I like the idea of "haunted objects." Did you see all the post "Amityville III: The Demon" sequels? It was nothing but scary stuff brought back from the haunted house 'infecting' new houses in sunny California or other parts of the world.

The "too long, didn't read version" goes like this: Fuck science, demons are cool.

And, if you're too lazy to read, here's one of my clever links...



...and I now want to see Alex in Cenobite-like makeup in the finale.

The youtube thumbnail was enough for me. But to be quite honest Im more creeped out about the second portion of the theory that discusses the end of season 2.

Seriously, anyone who thinks Trosephim are going to explain the Operator on a whiteboard with a complex series of self-masturbatory calculations involving quantum physics and math should just unplug from the internet right now and go back to reading the calculus textbooks they hide under their mattresses. The Operator is an abomination of space and time, wherever it comes from is a place completely abandoned by any benevolent God (or gods, for that matter) and is probably somehow related more to the H.P. Lovecraft's C'thulu or Shub Niggurath or, and I know I'm getting obscure, here, Nyarlathotep.

And then you've got Tim, who was locked up in "the asylum" for who knows what. Brad Dourif is Tim Sutton in Marble Hornets: The Motion Picture.

I like the idea that Hoody, Masky, or Skully could have placed the camera used from the Marble Hornets shoot in Alex's new apartment for an unsuspecting Amy to find and turn on. But this still doesn't explain why Alex is convinced that the entire clusterfuck with TO is Jay's fault. It seems that he would have blamed it on Hoody or Skully if they had planted the camera.

I'm going to put it in terms I think that any typical web junky will get...

...is what you should say when you see a nine foot, faceless demon in a business suit teleporting about. Not "I wonder what the physics involved in this science experiment are." Stop pestering Satan! He's busy enough as it is.

there's a lot of ways to debunk this theory, but the easiest one is the fact that the operator can find anyone he wants at any time, shown a few times this season, most notably when tim and jay go to alex's old house, tens of miles away from where they last encountered the operator

(Actually, using the term "math" as plural is more common in America, and is being used correctly. "Maths" is more common in New Zealand, Britain, etc.)

The "haunted camera" theory has been around for a bit, but never explored quite so thouroughly... I like it! Does it spread to other cameras, though? Or only cameras used by the person being haunted? How many times has the chestcam picked up TO?

It also make me wonder about all those cameras Jay mentioned in the antique store at the beginning of season 3.

I know people have also forwarded the theory of cameras+operator symbol being used for summoning, but that's not always the case. I don't think it's used for banishing, because the operator has appeared many times directly after the symbol has been filmed.

The operator fits quite neatly within the lovecraftian feel, considering its association with another dimension full of alien geometries and time shifting.
