But he drew out Jeff's death, he said himself about breaking Jeff. He needed to kill him inside first. And yes the Vinny and Noah cases are totally separate, though it would appear HABIT needs both of them for whatever reason.


But I specified people that he wasn't trying to kill. Habit generally does torture his victims before killing them, yes.

I'm almost certain that they've referenced hearing it from the fans & reacted angrily. It is not easy to pinpoint where, but my best bet would be the last Ustream, since according to the Wiki, it included the following:

Quote:
Evan claims to have never met HABIT and to know nothing about him other than his name.
Any missing time Evan has experienced he feels can be chalked up to sleep deprivation.
At the end of A Day in the Life Evan admits to feeling irritable and ready to go home, but says it was nothing.


Sort of looks like they're trying to debunk fan theories about Evan being inHABITed.

I disagree. I don't think that he needed to break Jeff, but that he just wanted to.

I'm completely open to evidence that proves me wrong, though.

Well he didn't NEED to, but it's one of his most preferred methods of killing, particularly when it's a party of interest like the Hybrids.

Regarding Vin's fiction-statement: In the -.-. video Jeff says "Nineteen years go by. You forget. For a moment I thought it was all real.", suggesting the guys in the Candleverse know whatever Vin just came to realize.
I have always been fond of the theory that the whole story is based on the idea of a computer game. It's an alternate reality game. We are playing it. Or possibly someone else, toying with them. Someone wrote it. They are the chars, and they have a set of lives (iterations). There are so many game hints scattered over the years. Something meta is obviously going on, this being a game seems to make sense of most of it.

Well, that makes me sway towards Corenthal not being inHABITed. I always felt Corenthal acted just like HABIT in that video, but it makes much more sense that OOG-Evan and OOG-dad are alike.

We emailed them quite a few times about the idea that one of them may have been possessed or acting against them. We got a few gentle responses from Vin and Jeff, saying that they trust each other unconditionally yadda yadda, but Evan would tend to flip out about how "all of us were always accusing him" of stuff and whatnot. They definitely knew about the theories (IG of course).

What's the significance of the two journals mentioned a few pages back?

I understand that symbol from TT on a knife can sever people from Slendy, but how do the journals tie into the EMH story (if at all)?

I'm pretty sure that they don't tie into the EMH story at all.

Probably not, considering that was information given to the protagonist of TT for his use, in a video on that channel. EMH is pretty good at posting relevant crossover videos to their channel and leaving information for the other series in videos on those channels.

It likely has no direct bearing on the EMH storyline but are more than likely part of whatever HABIT's long-term goals are.

I am not yet convinced that EMH won't share its ending with the plots of other series, or even be absorbed into them.

Nope......

I was once all about that, but that was back when I thought it was unlikely to happen. But now that all the bigger series are diverging and sharing information about Slenderman's weakness I'm starting to worry it might be the case. And since they're crossing over with some of the poorer series along with the better ones it kinda worries me.

Yeah, I kind of know what you mean. I actually posted my most recent statement in the vain hope that someone has something that utterly refutes my suspicion. 'Course, on the other hand, I also think, "Not right now, I don't have time for it."

I've been following this series since The Property, and I'm nowhere near as well-versed in the lore as something like Marble Hornets, but I have a theory for you all to (likely) disregard completely.

So I've never watched MLAndersen, but what I've gathered from Shaun's conversation with Vinny is that there are objects in this universe that seem normal, but are actually something like magical artifacts. I don't know where they come from or why they even exist, but if they are broken or incomplete, this somehow leaves Slenderman more vulnerable. Now, this works in the MLA universe, but is there potentially something in the EMH universe that has a similar function?

This brings me to the rocking horse toy. Corenthal left the toy in the storage facility for the gang to find, and when Evan notices it he says something like, "Why is this here? That's just creepy." Perhaps it's more important than the hybrids first thought. It shows up again in Dead End With a Pulse, Jeff is kinda spaced out and just toying with it before he has the epiphany about Maryanne Corenthal. And perhaps by tampering with the rocking horse they can make Slenderman more vulnerable.

We don't have much to go on but they've made a point of showing it frequently and commenting on it. It just strikes me as something of an out of place artifact.

I am forced to agree. It seems as if things are getting a bit "muddied", if not a tad confusing at times. I do hope however that EMH has a clear and defined ending. One can only wait, it seems.
