I kinda dislike the whole super-mega face off ending. While Marble Hornets definetly has some good jump scares, I never viewed it like a Michel Bay Slender Movie. I enjoyed the suspension, the slow, creeping horror, (with the occasional TO jumping in from out of nowhere) and I somehow hope that the "grand finale" will somehow turn on that core value of MH. But please no second #83.


I'd rather see for a grand finale, if there is to be some sort of confrontation, something more like one of the arguments that Alex and Jay and Tim and Jay had, only at an unexpected point something big happens. But I agree that something such as a huge, cosmos-rending cataclysm would be BS.


Seconded, I think MH has largely incorporated more drama elements than horror at this stage so I think a standoff or confrontation is due. But I can't see it taking place in Tim's house. Tim's house is so small, non-picturesque and seeing TO trying to squeeze into it would just look goofy. I know Ascalondion said no second #83 but I don't see any other way for them to get to a more appropriate endgame stage than be teleported by TO, unless there's a break between the fight and one flees to another area (not completely unlikely to happen, mind)


Well, Tim's house is certiantly out of the running now Smile

That's good, because Cyan507 couldn't see it happening there, anyway, so it's not that Cyan needs glasses or anything.







OK, that was a bad joke even from me.

This is going to end only one way, and you all already know how.

God, I hope not. That seems like too happy an ending. The thought that TO's just keeping others prisoner somehow rather than that they were murdered by Alex and taken or at least critically if not mortally wounded like Jay and maybe Hoody ratchets down the horror factor. And what about their mental and spiritual as well as physical states? How the hell do you make these poor fuckers whole again? I hope there's not a happy ending. I hope there's just an ending with some resolution. But that may just be me.


I did not mean that characters would be brought back from the dead or that this would happen the idea I had in mind was that TOTHEARK was interacting with more than just Tim and Jay maybe Hoody was leading people to the ark the, the ARK being like Noah's ark which united all the animals in one place to keep things safe.That would be why Hoody never killed Alex, he wanted them all to be in one place ... he wanted them all in the ARK.

I don't think that there will be a second #83. Think about it , Entry 83 was Hoodies last entry ... they gave him something that would fit him, TOTHEARK is known for having really weird/trippy videos so they sent him off with a trippy entry.

Same can be said for Jay, Jay has always been about finding the truth as apposed to Tim trying to find the solution ... Jay dies while trying to investigate what was going on in Benedict Hall. Continuing with this Jay started off looking at tapes that showed that the reason why his friend became so moody was because of TO ... in #82 Tim watches a video that shows that the reason why Jay over reacted so much was because of TO.
Everything is coming full circle. Alex burned down Tim's house just like what he was going to do with the tapes ... just like what TTA did to Jays house ... Just like (presumably) what Tim did to the Hospital.

The confrontation with Alex will be a culmination of his character, it might have the motif of water attributed to it to counter act the fire motif attributed to this entry.Although I feel that we will never be able to predict what will happen in this entry because of how good they have gotten with playing with our expectation ... remember when we were speculating what would happen in #83 the best idea any of us came up with was that Tim would pretend to go masky and attack Hoody while his guard was down, and alot of us thought because Trosephim "lost their touch" or what ever they probably would never do anything cool like that ... and then they gave us the actual entry #83 that we all love now.

The7kproductions, don't you think what you've written about Hoody leading people to a safe place seems too religious, which is something that the MH boys have pretty much avoided--"Ark" mentions coinciding with some early TTA videos connoting flooding and moral pollution notwithstanding. Also, Jay's the one who was supposed to lead Hoody.

Not quite sure what to make of your other comment, particularly what you said about Alex. As for everyone loving Entry #83, I'm personally on the fence on it. That is, I really like it and appreciate the acting and editing and effects. But until I get a sense of whether Alex has acquired some of TO's abilities or not (because it seems to me that he either had control over the warping or overloaded everything with his emotions and so helped to influence where everyone warped and also that disturbing scene with a critically wounded Jay bleeding and "All Your Fault" written on the mirror), I couldn't possibly place it among my favorite entries.

First off you can call me 7k for short Smile ...secondly I do not feel that the idea of creating a safe place is too religious as of the word ark either means container or safe place, and I did't really mean that the place that they were going to would be safe or what ever I was just resiting the story of Noah's ark as reference ... due note I have multiple theories as to what the ARK could be this was just one of them ... I might give another one at the end of this post.

I didn't really say any thing about Alex so I'm not sure what you are referring to all I was trying to get across is that 83 was a summation of Hoody and that the final confrontation with Alex will have plenty of Alex- -ness in it ... and also that every thing is coming full circle and that what ever happens in it wont be predictable.

Okay another idea that I had about the ARK was that Hoody just sort of made it up to control people ... Masky in particular and that he was just scheming to get Alex killed by some one else other than himself this whole time ... not the most sound idea but I think it could work.[/b]

Okay, so after a few entries where Tim comes a bit more clean about what he knew, fights and takes down Alex in Rosswood, and answers a few, but not all, questions through one last tape, here's a lark on what a creepy "it's in the house!" ending would be. The attempt was to make it honestly scary but I think I failed in the execution. I'm sure someone here might have better horror chops to take the idea from the silly to the horrifying.

Entry #88

White text: It's supposed to be over.

But it's not. That thing is still out there. It's still dangerous. But it's clear now what it will take to stop it.

INT - Dark room, Masky facing webcam. Sitting still for most of the rest of the video, but tilts his head once or twice.

White text: Tim has to disappear. Go away. That will help.
So I'm back. [head tilt]
For good.

That's not enough, though. Every person who has seen these videos is connected to that thing. And each one is going to have to do the same thing that Seth did, that Brian did, that Alex did. That Jay did. That Tim did. That's the only way it will go away for good. So I'm going to be busy.

INT: Jay's old bedroom with Masky perched over him.

But at least I've had some practice getting to where I need to go.

This may seem extreme, but believe me: it's much better than the alternative.

INT: Alex's old bedroom during Entry 14, with the Operator walking through the door.

I'd say I'm sorry, but you knew it had to end this way from the first Entry.

I'll see you soon.



Stupid, right? But Masky stalking Jay, and TO stalking Alex, were some of the more horrifying parts of MH. Going out with them seemed appropriate.

Yeah this one will probably happen. This kind of series has to leave one unanswered question at the end.

I like this, bringing it back to the sense of creepy the series started with Very Happy

I actually hope it's Brian or something; not because I want him to not be Hoody - I was perfectly cool with the way his reveal was handled - but it would be one of those "WAIT WHAT THE SHIT" endings that everyone would either flip out over our hate with a passion. Either way I would find its reception funny, and since his uploading of the video wouldn't have much of an effect on the plot at that point (Other than the now-unanswered "who was Hoody? "), I'm totally okay with this happening. xD

Much has been said in the THAC podcast, search for it in soundcloud. It's now called BNWYDSE.

Location: The Ark, obviously. Or Michigan. Not Sure.

Does anyone else think that the final entry will be another video of someone driving with text over it? Maybe Tim's?

Hey, the introduction was supposedly "raw footage excerpts from Alex Kralie."

As season 1 ended and season 2 end/begin, it was Jay's footage of himself driving.

Season 3 closer = Tim driving?

The final entry may be closer to a kind of "summary" entry where the survivor or whatnot discovers the answers and whatever and possibly ends it with a dialogue. I honestly don't see an abrupt, twist kind of ending where we don't know what happens to who.

I think that's a given. It's just written into MH's presentation. Like a metaphor for hitting the open road, Tim could go anywhere if he lives.

If it was a suicide video it'd be cool if it was driving and then went off a cliff, lul that wouldn't happen though.

I believe in the end Tim will find out what happened to Amy, and that Alex didn't actually kill her, but that she died somehow some other way. And then I think Tim will end up killing him.
