Just think of it this way: Since Bloody Mary isn't allowed to be an "Icon" this year, she doesn't have to get killed by Adaru waking up. Which means she can go on pretty much torturing people and being her fucking crazy self for a long, long while. :3

Hey, all. Do we know what the policy for taking pictures with scare-actors is gonna be this year? Since this is likely the last year Bloody Mary's gonna be at the park, I wanna take a picture with her before she heads back to her pocket dimension for a loooong while.

I did get that vibe from the place they were taking the photo, yeah.

I doubt there'll be people thinking that this is the literal end of the world and they're the world's greatest hope for survival from an ancient Sumerian god. Then again... people have done stupider things... I've mostly been thinking that these're just in-character posts. The mental image of someone trying to go vigilante on what's supposed to be either a killer clown, a grandma, or a guy that looks like a mixture of Pinhead and Nightmare from Soul Calibur is pretty funny though.

I didn't say that was my belief. Personally my mind is open to anyone and everyone at the moment. That's just what LT's been saying, is all.

Too true. Mostly every question involving the staff was answered with "Can we please focus on the investigation?" For a staff meeting they didn't seem to give out many answers that didn't pertain to how Thorncastle is a total douchebag.

What was the Device supposed to do again? I assume that it has something to do with ghosts and stuff, seeing as how it got used during the Bloody Mary Variety Hour.

The stars are right, in his house in R'lyeh dead Cthulhu etc etc etc. Anybody got any Elder Signs handy?

Everything goes down either tomorrow or on the 26th is my guess.

I think Ryan said something to the effect of "The prophecy can't be stopped, but we can mitigate the damages." or something like that.

... Well, there you go then! Nevermind on my theory.

I brought this up a while back, but the symbolic mixing together of these five elements into this kind of pattern are only going to make one of two things: 1. A summoning circle. I don't think I have to say bad news bears on this one, but still, bad news bears. 2. It's possible Fell and Himmel are trying to put down a ward to keep this Sumerian asshole down where he belongs. Of course, the first possibility is more likely, but still. Just playing Devil's Advocate here. Though I suppose I should leave that to Himmel...

Not necessarily literal demons per se, Zokoke. Prophecies have a habit of using misleading wordplay, it's a big thing in a lot of literary works. The infected MNA was probably Richards trying to break into the system, actually. It may come up again. I think it will, in fact! Edit: Wait, whoops. I saw blood and thought Mary, my bad.

Bloody Mary would possibly line up with Athena, if we're going through the Greek Pantheon. The goddess of innovation and inspiration, Mary created a new form of psychological treatment and inspired herself by way of it. Just a shot in the wind. What you got is good though! If they're any Greek gods who embody reverence, order, or duty, the Usher might fit them.

They're probably at the beginning of the house, or even in the line. Like, event maps and stuff.

Heh, yeah. Backstabbing dickbutt. :v

This was when the phone transcript took place.

It actually seems like "more blood" is a running theme in design this year, what with both the font for this year's naming being doused in blood, and the fact that blood slowly starts appearing on the lettering of the loading screens as it gets closer to being finished.

Circle? As in, like, a summoning circle, a warding circle, or a symbol of said gods?

It isn't THAT farfetched. Notice "inspired". HHN has seen an Event Horizon house before.

Yeah, I was about to say that. Apparently it's rumored to be in the house that's been thought to be RUN 3. RUN 4 Dead?

Hmm... It's suggested that someone should update the OP with information on what's gone on so far. It's a helpful starting point, and a way to get new CFOs quickly up to date. Anyone got the old versions of the first pic set saved? It might be a good idea to do a side-by-side. Also, last two pictures in this set have to do with entombment. The first is a literal version, a being laid to rest. The second involves another version, being sealed in a glass box. ninja edit: Also holy shit Fell

To get us looking for more. Simple.

So... what you're saying is, once this is all over, the path that the future of HHN will be taking is clear? Hmm. :3

Just a suggestion. Possibility could be that we're trying to make the lantern. Just suggesting that that be tried out. o:
