OMG

Just... something about seeing a new tweet with that pic made me so excited.

Can't wait 😀😀

As to a new series on the MH channel: on their Reddit AMA they said the new series would be on the MH channel, and pretty much admitted they're doing it that way for the sake of view count.

As to the new tweet: if it's MH related it could be anything from a reference to entry #44, to TTA's 44th video (if he had that many) to Alex's birthday, to the start of something that will finally help solve the 'Null' code, to something I haven't thought of. If it's not MH related, it's likely a reference of some sort to the new series.

Of course, all that assumes this was meant to be on the MH Twitter at all. Someone could've logged into the wrong account by accident, or really screwed the pooch and sent something that wasn't even meant to be a tweet. I know the latter sounds far-fetched, but I saw it happen once before: our dear Katsatitagain sent out a very odd seeming tweet, and when I replied to see what that was supposed to be, her response was "I totally just Tweeted what I meant to text!".

I think the key will be whether that tweet stays, or disappears just as mysteriously as it appeared.

I know it sounds dumb but let's see if a 43 tweet appears tomorrow, it's VERY unlikely but let's rule nothing out right now.

I'm very much in the Alex's birthday camp right now, 4 was used way too much in MH for it to be deemed insignificant here. But Alex's birthday was the forth of the forth, and April is still two months away. I'd say we're due another few tweets before then if not a pilot. OOG they wouldn't put such a vague placeholder tweet there without following something up soon after.

What I want to know is who posted the tweet and why.

i was doing fine. i was getting better. imagine waking up one morning, in the back seat of your car, miles away from home, with a marble hornets twitter update, and you have no idea how that happened


So what could 44 mean? If it's the new series then it won't be marble hornets related. If it's a countdown that just seems... weird. Like if we're it's gonna be found footage, it makes no sense for a countdown.

So it COULD be

Alex's birthday
44 days
Entry #44
observation (44 secs long)

And that's it.

It's more likely one of the first two.

I guess we'll see.

So if the new content is going under the Marble Hornets banner, do you reckon there's going to be an explanation or that, or is it going to be swept under the rug?

Seems a bit weird given the backstory of the channel to have something different suddenly appear, doesn't settle right. Also if 44 is referencing Alex's birthday (which seems the most likely right now), why would they be referencing MH stuff for something totally different?

So many questions, as usual!

Even though THAC's comedy can be plenty dark and eerie.

Maybe without The Slender Man in the next series I won't be distracted waiting for or expecting him and can enjoy the series for what it is. I love MH to death but I spent way too much of Seasons 2 and 3 going "Wasn't this originally about The Slender Man? When was the last time he showed up?"

Though I will say it's a bummer he didn't show up in the last Entry in some capacity.


Because slender man has just become boring. I have more interest in hoody or Noah maxwell. Slenderp is good for scares but not great for a long haul story. IMHO of course

To keep it on topic, they are coming out with new content, but as reasonable as piggybacking MH channel popularity, it doesn't seem 'right'.


They kinda gave up the 'immersion' gimmick when they started advertising where to buy the DVD on the Youtube channel page. Besides, chances are they'll lose more than a few subscribers when they start uploading non MH things anyhow.

Well, TTA apparently only put out 42 videos, so that idea's shot.

So, who was Tweet? Well, in-universe the only person who had access to the account still alive is Tim. Although it seemed pretty clear to me that his intention was that we would never see or hear from him again. And since "everything is fine" was in the infamous camcorder font, I'd say that would've been Masky's intention, too.

Out of universe, I would assume all of Trosephim have access to the Twitter and the Youtube channel. I don't know about Noah; he is part of the THAC crew, but he didn't come on board until after Marble Hornets ended, so why would he need access? If something did need to be done with either account, I can't imagine what would cause all three of the others to be incapacitated at the same time. Especially since they're not all living in the same house anymore.

Of course, it's always possible they're just trolling us. Which would be mean, but awesome at the same time Twisted Evil .

Pish posh! Who doesn't print a DVD while on the run? Still, I'd like to see how they pull off new content.

I wonder if it has any reference to Rasterschlüssel 44, a cipher used by the germans in WWII? Perhaps we missed something critical.

Guys, what if the next series just Marble Hornets but instead of The Slender Man, Noah plays an enraged axe-murdering lumberjack?

I'd be down.

Something to do with the next series, almost definitely.

Swept under the rug. From past comments, it can be inferred that there will be no relation to MH and they're putting it on the same channel purely for views, showing no regard for even the slightest remaining immersion. The idea of the channel being abandoned in-universe is cool, unfortunately no longer going to be the case though. It'd be nice if they relied on the quality of the series bringing people in, rather than riding on the back of MH.

Yup, so many questions, which will likely never be answered given MH's track record.

Debatable, there was the silly mysterious hand in the distortion reaching for Jessica.

In one of the podcasts they said they're unlikely to go the found footage route again.

Dude, you seem angry. Or, bitter, or jaded or something. Not a good color.

Well, for what it's worth (probably not much, granted), 44 days from today is March 30.

Assuming it is Troy; it could just as easily be Joseph or Tim messing with us. Especially since Troy has a new baby and all.
