Line 57:
The flip side of the above theory. The Slender Man is evil, but totheark is actually trying to help/protect J from whatever it is. However, totheark is legitimately insane, so his attempts come off as crazy and antagonistic.
 
== Slender Man will cause [[The End of the World Asas We Know It]] ==
 
And as the above theory describes, totheark is trying to help and stop him, or at least trying to save himself. The ending lines of Entry ##### ( {{spoiler|"and you will lead me to the ark"}} tie this in with a Biblical reference.
Line 146:
 
* You forgot that the drug causes [[Laser-Guided Amnesia|memory loss.]] The reason we have jump cuts is because J is turning off the camera and moving. Also, long-term use of the drug causes something weird to happen to the body's electrical field, which is why Slendy and Masky cause the static. The one big crimp in the whole theory, unfortunately, is where the hell the drug comes from in the first place.
* Alternatively, the pills are [[John Dies Atat the End|Soy Sauce]]
 
== The Operator Symbol is a face. ==
Line 187:
Slenderman is often personified as a homicidal tree, so continuing that line of thought, why not assume Slendy represents the whole forest? Nature in general? The audio and visual distortion on the tapes is caused by him essentially being the antithesis of the rational and technological world. He wants everyone to leave the woods, and stop filming him and trampling burrows and whatnot. Plus, with all those arms and tentacle branches, he could hold a ton of signs at protests and rallies. It's a hidden gift.
** While this is a humorous theory, it does raise some interesting questions about the Operator's relation to the fire shown in the painting and further referenced by the old tower...
** so he's a [[Genius: The Transgression (Tabletop Game)|Clockstopper]]?
 
 
Line 237:
 
== There were two Slendermen (Slendermans? Slendermeni? Slendermun?), one of which was not intentional. ==
There was the one that worked on the ''[[Marble Hornets]]'' set, and the one the other kept at bay, [[Meaningful Background Event|hiding]] [[Better Onon DVD|in]] [[Freeze -Frame Bonus|the background]], just... waiting...
* It was the [[Everyman HYBRID]] Slenderman. Marble Hornets is fictional in EMH. However, Slendy approved of his portrayal in Marble Hornets and decided to leave Troy and Joseph to their work. He had more urgent matters to attend to... and a HABIT to break.
 
== The Slenderman is a Weeping Angel ==
The Slenderman is a malformed Weeping Angel from [[Doctor Who]]. ''Don't blink.''
* And, because the Eleventh Doctor series reveals that an image of a charged Angel becomes an Angel itself, that explains why Slenderman followed the tapes. ...Oh, dear, is this going to be like the time [[The Ring|Samara]] [[Xkcd (Webcomic)|got uploaded to the internet]]?
 
== Slenderman is harmless/doesn’t intend to hurt or frighten anyone. ==
Line 284:
** Alex was initially curious about Slender Man. He mentions looking for him in Entry 2 and does so in the entry with the abandoned playground. His paranoia, chronologically, doesn't begin until the entry filmed in the car during which Slender Man appears in the background all a sudden, resulting with Alex's mood shifting rapidly. Now remember, Jay found an empty shell casing in the house. Perhaps Alex thought he shot and killed Slender Man and his paranoia/freakout didn't begin until he started seeing another Slender Man.
 
== The thing stalking the main characters is one of the [[Changeling: The Lost (Tabletop Game)|True Fae]]. ==
The Masked Man is actually a changeling that managed to escape the True Fae; his appearances are his own way of trying to protect the others from the fate he suffered.
 
== The Slender Man is a [[Team Fortress 2 (Video Game)|Spy]]. ==
Tall and lanky in a suit? Check. Master of sneaking around? Check. Multiarmed? ...check, if you're into [http://fc02.deviantart.net/fs42/f/2009/166/4/1/The_Tenta_Spy_by_Zoroko.jpg Tentaspy] fanart.
 
He must think Alex and Jay have the Intelligence, or maybe they do and don't know it. Since there are no Filmmakers working for either Reliable Explosive Demolitions or Builders League United, he can't disguise as either of them; his failed attempts result in a friendly-spy effect, but since there is no actual disguise, his paper mask is left blank.
 
Thus, he is left to try and decoy them away somehow; he is likely aware of the differences between our world and [[Team Fortress 2 (Video Game)|his,]] so he knows if he just backstabs them, the cops will get too close. Audio and video constantly distorts because he, instead, uses his cloak to sneak sappers onto the filming equipment.
 
It's possible the Spy is specifically [[Cuanta Vida (Webcomic)|Rojo,]] as he's certainly sadistic enough to mess with a bunch of poor fast-approaching-broken-down people like this.
 
To go along with the guesses above about whether Totheark works with or against the Slender Man, Totheark must be an undercover Scout; he's relatively small, very bouncy and clearly has an attitude. He pulls his camera trickery not by cloaking like Slender Spy, but by getting high on Bonk! so he can move faster than the camera can see. It's just a question of which team he's on.
Line 573:
* Jay, Masky, and Alex are all friends who enjoy the chase to pass the time until the next Slendy sighting. Unfortunately, Alex just gets a bit 'extreme' in tagging "Masky" to be 'it'
 
== Totheark is [[Ben Drowned (Web Video)|Jadusable, BEN or Majora]] ==
* In the video Broadcast, the description is "Are you drowning". Coincidence? I mean, both are Creepypastas. Myself, I think that if any of them are Totheark, it's likely going to be Jadusable.
** Actually, Slenderman comes about on {{spoiler|the [[Something Awful]] forums, not Creepypasta.}} The two series are completely unrelated.
Line 686:
Admittedly, only the last rational is directly supported by ''[[Marble Hornets]]'' itself, with the rest being from the original [[Something Awful]] thread.
 
== [[Yu-Gi-Oh!: theThe Abridged Series|Concrete Giraffes]] is in continuity of Marble Hornets ==
 
Slendy couldn't get a role in Hornets, so he went to Marik instead.
 
== totheark is [[Friday (Musicsong)|Rebecca Black]] ==
She wanted to get to the Ark Music Factory.
** Alternatively, totheark is looking for the "ark" so he can lead Slendy there as well. The "ark" is Ark Music Factory, and he's leading Slendy there to devour all of the children making terrible music.
Line 829:
<br />A corollary to that would be that the pills we see in Alex's abandoned house (then inhabited by Masky), possibly do something vis a vis the prevention (Or possibly aiding) of this taking over. We know Jay also consumed them without remembering it (E19.5). (Or possibly, when Masky broke into Jay's house, it was just to get his meds(E19)).
 
== Blasky is [[Todd in Thethe Shadows]] ==
Grey hoodie. Wears a black facemask when in public. Bad attitude.
* Um... that makes too much sense. Coupled with the fact that many people believe [[Atop the Fourth Wall (Web Video)|The Entity]] to be Slender Man, I think we've got a crossover brewing.
** My god. Channel Awesome teaming up with the Marble Hornets guys? The Operator is screwed. Next year's anniversary video maybe? Rob Walker has said that the Critic's character growth will continue into next year's special, so what's a better way to grow as a character than fighting a horrifying abomination against all that is holy and right. That and seeing Linkara kicking Masky's ass would be awesome.
 
Line 841:
Alex and J offered him some chocolate in entry 12 (I think it was 12), and he still wants some. It's still unclear if this is [[Nightmare Retardant]] or [[It Got Worse|just makes it worse]].
 
== The Operator is a [[X -Men|mutant]]! ==
The Operator symbol is an X in a circle. It couldn't be more obvious! Slendy is obviously out recruiting for Xavier's school for gifted youngsters. This just means that Alex and Jay are also mutants.
 
Line 956:
** Recent Entries suggest that the Maskies are actually working AGAINST Alex and Slenderman.
 
== The Maskies are members of [[Torchwood: Miracle Day (TV)|The Soulless.]] ==
They continued to live, even if (I say if due to the series not being over yet) the Miracle ended, and they've been driven mad. Encountering Slendy may not have helped either.
 
Line 1,069:
 
== One way or another, Alex will be dead by the end of the series ==
{{spoiler|Committing homicide}} served as a [[Moral Event Horizon|sanity event horizon]] of sorts, completely removing the possibility that he might eventually realize how he's been acting and snap out of it. The best foreseeable fate for him is a [[Dying Asas Yourself]] scene.
 
== The thing Alex tries to show Jay at the end of Entry #38 ==
Line 1,165:
It'd be a nice callback if it belonged to Brian.
 
== [[The Angry Video Game Nerd (Web Video)|James]] [[James Rolfe|Rolfe]] is involved somehow. ==
After all, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TMnZQGkVPj8 he'd rather bite a killer shark] before he takes more animals '''''to the ark'''''.
 
Line 1,279:
 
== Alex isn't evil at all, and never was ==
He's been a victim of [[Demonic Possession]] this whole time, and season 3 will have him [[Dying Asas Yourself]]. There will be a [[Plot Twist]] that Jay has been possessed on numerous occasions and has committed crimes as much as Alex, or he is also a Masky and does not remember. Disappearances i.e. Entry #24 have been occurring off screen the whole time for many of the characters. Just moreso for Alex.
 
== Hold the phone--in more ways than one. ==
