HoUse of DRead? I think there are 150 words, could the number of them be important? Also, there are 2 underscores at the end for no apparent reason.

When I cleaned up the text, it looked like this for me:

(The only difference is line breaks)

I want to point out here that the text is not right-justified. There are spaces before the shorter lines, which push them over. That could be significant.

If this puzzle is music related, then it could have something to do with rythm? The single and double lines possibly stand out as shorts and longs.

If you look at the original sideways you can indeed see piano-keys..

*Edit: removed my code because there is one including notes below

VERY VERY NICE SPOT!

I have labled the keys by note, and I am going to see if I can find anything with relation to the background on the page.

The background has the folowing notes: (Theres a dot after a note twice-as-long note)

So, check out the lines that coordinate with the music on the page?

/me is a musical idiot and can't figure that out for herself.

Look at the first letter of those lines, do they spell out a word?

I'm including the mp3 in this thread for all our music-enabled hunters to figure out which keys are being played.

The D in HUDR (HURD, or whatever other combo you choose) is not really one of the letters for the answer of this puzzle. The D just happened to have already been capitalized. The MP3 starts out on a C note (H).

Furthermore... the music in the background has chords marked on it.

The three chords mentioned are G, G7, and C. A chord is a set of notes that compliment each other. G chord includes G, B, and D. The C chord includes C, E, and G. G7 is unusual because it bridges two other chords and includes G, B, D, and F. One way you could lay this all out....

D, G-B-D, B, B-D-F, A, G-C-E, E, D-G-B, D
