Pretty sure the third word he's saying is either "them" or "dim".

Also... I think the first word could possibly be "dark".

I'm guessing at some point we're going to find three sets of encrypted codes and will need to use the keywords in order. Any idea where we would find those?

Indeed, I bet that's exactly what happened. Vinny kept looking around like that because he knew Evan had been repossessed, and wouldn't like Vinny's message. He was caught at the end, but instead of just destroying the message, HABIT used it. Messing with the audio and putting that QR code in it. And it worked. We're all digging deeper looking for clues, even though we were just told to forget about all of this. Vinny told us to save ourselves, and HABIT used the very warning message to insure we would do just the opposite. That's...poetic. Also, classic HABIT.

Also, I just noticed Vinny didn't say shit about the last video. So I guess we're supposed to assume it was Evan (sans HABIT) outside the door Confused .


If that was HABIT's plan, it goes against Vinny thinking he's in control of the channel like the description said. But that's not exactly impossible to imagine.

I think the description infers he's still sorting through the footage of what happened when the door opened. Whatever happened, Vin ended up together with Evan.

Really touching ending with the video games, as was pointed out.

Yeah, but we all know how Evan feels when he loses....

Aaaaaaand EMH is back! This means endgame is probably far off! We've got more codes, more fan interaction, and a lot more Slender Man to come I imagine!

IKR? Only a week into 2015 and there's already 5 page threads! I really hope 2015's thread is longer than 2014's measly 32 page count.

It's kinda freaky considering EMH's 2010 thread went over 1000...

I wonder... since they seem to be bringing some of the ARG aspect back, do you suppose the Seven Trials might start up again?

Hey, I just thought of something. IIRC, the last Trial was "keep your body breathing". Since it seems HABIT desperately needs and audience, needs attention, maybe that was a way to keep his game going indefinitely? The game never ends, so his 'Rabbits' never really stop thinking about it, and by extension, him. And, if he thinks of something new, he can just play it off like it was always meant to be part of the Trials, and he kept us hanging for years just because he could. I'm sure anyone who participated was subscribed to his Twitter, and still is; they'd probably shit their pants if they suddenly got a new Tweet from @SEVENTRIALS.

I just thought of something (after over 24 hours of no sleep):

What happens if HABIT doesn't get his audience? He would probably like us to believe that he would just get huffy and angry without attention, but what if, like Mr. Slenders himself, us paying attention to him makes him stronger?

HABIT, just like Stick-in-the-Mud, is most likely a Tulpa, meaning his existence thrives off of being believed in and known about. Vinnie wants us to stop watching so that we don't fuel HABIT by giving into him by acknowledging him. If we stop giving HABIT attention he ceases to exist.

Gotcha. Obvious observation was obvious.

i mean, does that mean that we shouldn't watch any more videos that might be uploaded soon and/or stop looking at blogs/twitters/etc.?

because man, i don't know, that just seems really difficult.

This is pretty interesting, considering the long breaks between episodes and Evan coming back. Perhaps there is a correlation between the two.

That would be the greatest in-game explanation for extended periods of inactivity I've ever heard.

It's sort of a silly concept once you think about it. No one's going to stop watching, of course.

Better than "Cultists killed our families and we're in hiding?"
