Chili Dog, not included. The Naked God. Tickets on sale now. August 1st. Welcome back to Creakast. Today we are doing our second Twitter ARG, like a year and a half later. But this is the Holy Grail. This is the holy grail of the Twitter ARGs. It is the sun vanished, compressed.

Compressed. The sun vanished, compressed. The sun vanished is a kind of alternate reality story that began on Twitter in 2018. And the premise was a man woke up one day to find that the sun has gone out. And it started to incorporate a couple of other Twitter accounts. Now, it's a little hard to do a video going through the entirety of the sun vanished because the ARG went on for a couple of years. and the creator was like replying to people constantly. So it's like reading two years of constant, you know, Twitter use.

So rather than doing that, we have had some people on the creepcast team. And by people, I mean one indentured servant who we forcing this. Thanks, Nate. Go through and trim it down to the big points. So this is like, it is comprehensive for everything that happened in the sun vanish, but as you said, compressed. Yeah. It gets, it's going to be the no fat version of the story. But if you want to go experience it, it's all still up there. And this is actually coming from three different Twitter accounts. The sun vanished, Tucker and Nat. And it looks like the sun vanished stop posting around 2021. And then the other ones are from the other said. Yeah, they've continued a little bit after into 2023, I think. So as we talk about, we're going to be talking about like what accounts it came from, what the dates are. There's some videos. We're going to watch those together. So if you're not familiar with it, hopefully this is a great introduction, give you an idea for the series.

And if you want to check it out for yourself, we'll have the links to everything in the description as always. Also, disclaimer, the last time I did a Twitter, ARG, there was a bunch of eggs and the guy, the account only followed big mouth writers.

So. Wouldn't that be crazy if we get to the end of this? If we get to the end of this one, and I have to fucking check and if it's a big mouth thing again. It's like a picture of John Mullaney. Can you believe it? You made it all the way through.

All right, without further ado, let's get into it. tweet here is from April 30th. Hold on, don't we... 2018. Don't you know? I'm at your house again. Our house.

You're here. Are we here? Are we going to record this shit or not? What do you want to say? Go ahead and make your piece. You got some magic cards there. You got some magic cards while you're here. Is that nice?

We can read this story. All right. Well, let's read the story. April 30th, 2018. Go ahead to start us off. All right. So we're beginning, of course,

with the Sun-vanished Twitter account. Began by posting, help. Preach, brother. All right, there's the first tweet. Just an account called the sun vanished. It just has help. And that's the story. And honestly, that would be a pretty good story if it just ends on help.

Help, all right. How funny would it be like to just start a bunch of accounts? They're like, the moon. exploded like help it's late in the morning and it's still dark outside i can hear the tornado sirens in the next county over but the weather radar is clear where is the sun then we see our first video a lot of videos here which i remember in gregory 88 was there there wasn't this many videos and photos i don't think there's any videos of the sun with violent riots taking place in just

in every major city. We are receiving an influx of reports of ransacking and looting from New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, Dallas, and Washington, D.C., a couple more isolated incident in our way. The president made a public statement this morning, urging people to remain calm and stay in their homes. Meanwhile, experts are claiming this could have known

to be an event similar to New England, All right, so there you go. Is something funny? Is this something hilarious to you? There's actually a couple things kind of funny. I like, I like got one. It's like, okay, so the sun's gone. So he's like completely in darkness in his room.

But the TV works. So it's like, God forbid you have a lamp on? so it's like how do we get across and the sun is gone well I'm in a completely dark room and then all of a sudden

you hear this you hear this like ethereal deer outside of his door and I was like I just imagine the I just imagine the sun like this

like poking out like he's a like he's an actual being the sun's gonna attack me hey the sun vanished and he's right outside my window I think he's looking at me I think

I think the sun's been watching me. All right, so basically, though, from the video. What I was going to say is I think it's a pretty cool inclusion to a Twitter ARG to tell, I'm not going to look at you. So what's the cool inclusion, dude? Shut up. The cool inclusion was that rather than just like basic text posts and stuff like that, it's like there's a news broadcast saying something that's happened.

Rather than like, oh, why doesn't he have the lights on? gives me the vibe of like he woke up in the middle of the night or like what he thought was the middle of the night even though it's like midday and he looks up at the TV TV's on and it's a news report about the sun disappearing. Yeah. It's like it's supposed to be bright outside. No, I get you're saying. That's the one thing I like about the Twitter a rages more than a lot of the stuff. It's just anything with photos, even the regular stores we read, anything with photos add so much more to the story for me. Yeah. I'm like such an eight brain person where I'm like, whoa. So honestly

and two, I just like from a production value, I just like whenever they have a little video. Yeah. Like in Gregory 88 when it was like the person standing outside in the woods, whatever. And it turns towards them real quick. Just a little something like that. Yeah. I think it's cool. So after that, continues to tweet and says, the power keeps going out and I keep hearing

noises outside. Sometimes far away. Sometimes close. After that, there's another video. I'm glad this is so funny. do you? So I get through a screen window here. All right. So here's like,

it sounds like an engine or something outside and there's like lights flickering in the distance, right? Well, I thought, is that on an airplane? It looks like an airplane. I look like an airplane going overhead, no? I mean, that was like outside of, window though like ground level oh that was ground level i thought i was looking at the sky what's so dark i can't

yeah exactly i assume the sun has vanished i mean maybe the sun has vanished you may be right that it was a playing like he's looking up but if when i think screen window i imagine you just think he's like looking straight ahead and that's yeah there's like a blinking light out in the distance yeah i can't sleep i think the noises outside are gunshots some of it i'm pretty sure is gunfire the other noises though i'm not sure and that's the end of the first post on april well so those were a series of tweets. Oh, so these are just, well, I mean, that's, that's the end of the post on April. Yeah. April 30th. On April 30th, that was the end of his, uh, his string of tweets there too. Yes. So with an ARG in this situation too, because with Gregory 88, that's the only thing

I have a basis off of. But in Gregory 88, something that's like, oh, I'm out here and there's dinosaur eggs by this lake or whatever. Yeah. You could still assume that it's in our universe because he's just at some place that we don't know. Just to play, it happens somewhere. But here, are we supposed to, because it's either augmented or alternate reality, are we supposed to assume that these tweets, if you're playing along are, this is like a guy in a different dimension than ours. If you're playing along, this is a different

universe. Sure. It's like a different... I mean, like, you know, this is a reality where I woke up one day in the sun banished, right? So it's, uh, yes, it's like a parallel universe, so to speak. Do you think that still does that still work the same way that like Gregory 88 does or no? I mean,

it's like with any horror story, right? Like, if you write a horror story that's about, there's a killer in the house well that could happen anywhere right like a murder but if you write a horror story about like the rapture or about you know world war or something like sure the setting can be

our world but we didn't go through yeah absolutely I think it's just when I think of the Twitter ARG thing it's almost the same thing as like R slash no sleep where it's supposed to be like I am a user and this is the experience same with the Twitter ARG where I'm like oh you're reading the tweets

of somebody going through some shit Yeah, yeah. I still think that the idea is fun. I just didn't know if I was like, oh, is it as effective? Because the people immediately from this know that it's a horror story set up thing or whatever. You are correct in that it doesn't work in tricking people. You are right. Because like Gregory 88, someone can come across that for the first time.

And it's like, oh, man, this guy's running into some weird stuff. The most, the best example of that is the one David first did with the Dear David thing. Yeah. Or Adam first, whatever his name is. I had a series called David first though David first is good man selling fingers

yeah salad fingers that's right the boy the goat Adam Ellis that's the name yeah my brain completely switched those two Adam Ellis is the guy who did a series called Dear David

Adam Ellis he does like online web comics and stuff like that and then one day he just started tweeting that something weird was happening in his apartment and he was like

I think this place is haunted and for a long time everyone thought he was just like he was like putting up cameras in the night he was like setting stuff to see where it would be and it would get moved

moved around. And then it turned out as part of a horror story he was writing called Dear David. But that one did a great job. Like when I first came across it, I'm like, to me, it was like, oh, this guy, that maybe there's an intruder in his house. Who knows? And then when it became a horror project, I'm like, that's pretty cool. I mean, like, for a younger audience, too, I think that's like, those become the stories I think are more memorable. Well, it's the same thing as like whenever the Blair Witch project came out. Everyone's like, oh, this is real, it looks real. So I like the idea of using tweets to tell a story. It's just, just, I wonder if, I mean, it still stands because this is people's, like, favorite.

Yeah, everyone loves Sun Vanished. So they like it. But yeah, I just didn't know if it was like, you know, if you needed that factor or not. Sun Vanished definitely doesn't have the real world draw because of like the scale of the project. But I think it does have a draw because it's such a unique concept. Unique concept and they still play into the found footage. Like, you're still, you're still vicariously seeing it through, like living this experience through this guy. It's grounded. Yeah. So you at least have that versus. I wonder if it was just a string of tweets with no videos if it would have been, eh. I don't think it would

have done as well. Yeah. Because I remember everyone posting the video clips early, like when it began, like making a deal out of it. I remember that. And his next string of tweets began the next day on May 1st. Yes. So on May 1st, he says it's still dark. The news said it would be back to normal by now, but it isn't. Now the news isn't even coming in.

This video, or this photo, is just a TV signal. Basically now, it's just a static screen that says no signal. Yeah. Pretty much assuming that I think, like, radio's, towers. Feeds are gone. Yeah.

The feed is gone. So after that, he says, been trying to conserve battery life since the power keeps cutting out. I'm worried it will go off and never come back on. TV signal is gone. The noises keep happening outside

and I can barely keep track of the time anymore. I'm honest to God terrified. I am so tempted to go outside. Should I? I remember this when it was happening because everyone was talking about it and he would put polls up. So everyone would vote.

And what was really fun about this is people would get into fights with each other in the replies. Because he would do a bunch of these polls. So he'd be like should I check this out or whatever? And people would be like stop voting yes. That's stupid. He shouldn't go over there. Blah, blah, blah. So it's just a fun way to incorporate you know, audience into it. Because like you said,

he's clearly killed the gimmick that this is really happening. Because it's the universe where the sun vanished. You keep it alive by giving the choose your own adventure. Yeah. Yeah. It makes it a little choose your own adventure thing for people. Which is why a bunch of people got really into it. Let the, let the people that are combating like, should I go outside yes, no, and having like the arguments. That's where it becomes real is because now you're interacting with another person that's in your reality. I remember people getting violent.

Oh, of course. Of course you have to. Why are you all stupid? This is why we, this is why this country's falling apart. Yeah, exactly. Trump's America. I do legitimately there was, I can't remember, we'll come across it, but there's one poll that I think was something about like, should I help this man or whatever. And I my brain may be filling in this memory but there's some replies like

it's all you bleeding heart liberals trying to help everyone like dude it's okay. We'll be all right. My God. Yeah,

it's not that serious. So they make a poll that says I'm so tempted to go outside should I? And the majority of people vote yes. Just like

the top reply is another poll from a separate user which asks, is this person white? Pretty, uh, is this person white? And then, and then the top rated. So then

the options are yes, yeah, sure as hell is, and hell yeah. And sure as hell is, is the dominant answer at 59% of the vote. That's funny. And then the person who either, why does this matter? I don't understand some people. Well, there's a lot of races on the internet, sweetheart. Well, I imagine the reason they set up that poll is

because, like, the horror trope of, like, only a white person would go outside. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Black people die first in the horror movie. Yeah, or, like, no, the joke is that, like, you always hear, like, white people in a horror movie are like, oh, what's that noise? I'll go and investigate. But any other person, like, I'm getting the keys and leaving. Yeah. The joke is that white people are, like, oblivious to, like, walk into danger.

Right. So when this person's like, should I go outside, the top replies, like, this is a white guy. Yeah, 100%. He has plot armor. Yeah, 100%. And that was the last of the tweets for that day. And then it moved into May 2nd the next day. It looks like he's going to be just be doing it daily for a while.

Yes, at first it was like super fast-paced. And then there's one point where it drops off for a while. And that's when I think I quit keeping up with it. So May 2nd, there's a video where the caption is, I went outside. I saw something out there. I can't really explain, but I can show you. And then it leads to this video.

we're back in graylock territory this does feel like graylock walking through the woods i miss graylock graylock's so good dude yeah it's 11 a.m. right now yes kind of strange and it's so dark huh

anyways creepy creepy so it could be a toddler playing with a toy out there or there's some kind of clicker going on what do you think it is is that a can you not be dismissive for 12 seconds

I mean so it's getting into a point also whenever he looked up there was no stars don't know if that's relevant or not but and also like that same flashing red light that he's outside before

is now in the tree tops same thing from before go ahead no no god you got something I don't have anything I just curious for people who are listening in the audio

he's walking outside at like probably like 10 a 10 p.m. at night and shine a flashlight and then in the woods and he stops turns off his flashlight and there was like a clicking sound with a red strobing light is the best way I can describe it right you don't have anything any smart no that's that's it okay a little clicking thing and he ran away I think hold up go back to that video real quick I think on a lot of them you can see the time it was posted You may not be able to on old ones. 11.40 p.m. 14 p.m. Okay. So that one was actually at night. Never mind.

We try to get a... I thought he was at 1140. I thought it was going to be fun if it was like 2 p.m. or something like that. Yeah, yeah. But it was at midnight. Yeah. Which I would be so funny if he was walking.

He posed at 1140 and he's like, he's like, yeah, it's high noon right now. Out in the woods. Look at this. What the hell? It's a picture of the red light on the tree, yeah. Then that tweet was made by big, big, Yoshi, but. What the how? Okay.

All right. So after that, going off of what Hunter pointed out, he says, I looked for stars or planets, as you all suggested. The sky was absolutely pitch black. Could be because of clouds or something else. I thought I saw some figures close by, but it is so dark. I feel like my mind is playing tricks on me.

I don't have much food stocked up, but after this experience with being outside for only a few minutes, I do not want to drive into town for supplies. Still shaken from the short time I was outside. I don't know what the flashing light was, but it was following me. Day three, still no sign of daylight.

It's getting colder. Okay, so this is now when, like, other accounts start to tie into it, I believe. An account called another angel responded to the previous tweet, the one saying day three, and says, stay safe, brother. Does calling 911 or the National Guard

help? Are you able to contact anyone else besides us on Twitter to which the sun vanish responds? I've tried. All I get is a busy tone. This Twitter is the only way I know how to contact the outside world. So again, playing into the theme that like all communication lines are down,

he can get tweets out for some reason. What are you smiling about? You just keep reading, dude. A person just ran by on my street. Two of the same flashing lights I saw yesterday were following them. They were gone by the time I got my phone out to record. The sun vanished then went dark for an uncomfortable amount of time or hours after this, continuing the tweets on May 3rd.

Which he says, sorry everyone, reception went out yesterday. I was worried it wouldn't come back on. No signs of activity outside. Come to think of it, it's been a while since I heard a gunshot. An account called Jacob responds to this. Previous tweet asking, can you see light anywhere? Like house lights or car headlights, to which the Sun Vanish responds, the only lights on are the walkway lights near my front porch.

Maybe a few house lights down the road. Power is not out right now. I'm just keeping all my lights off as a safety precaution. To which then, Sun Vanish says something just flew over my house and attaches this video. so we're getting into like actual alien territory potentially touch it between the engine sounds and the red flashing lights and he says he saw people running down the street but it was hard to make out who and also to mention that he's heard gunshots around periodically so it's kind of pointing towards like a war of the world's sort of like uh there's a ubiquitous takeover people are

getting abducted or attacked by aliens. I like the idea, too, of that if the sun vanished, if it's actually just like, which I don't know if this would make sense, so bear with me. But if it was like a giant spacecraft or something that was just like Well, it can't see stars or anything else. I'm saying, I'm wondering if it's

like a giant thing blocking it. Everything in one at once. Yeah. And I do like the creativeness here, I will say, with just some guy, I mean, maybe even with just like a line amp like plugging that, like plugging it in. and maybe putting like reverb on it and like putting a mic up to it and just creating like weird like

ship sounds just fun yeah it's creative i mean like you said earlier it's something it's like just a little thing because if these were just tweets yeah it would just seem so stupid yeah it's so dark right now but because it's not just tweets you certainly don't think that yeah i'm i'm so bot in uh-huh Also, this episode is sponsored by Campbell's Chunky. They can last you for an entire apocalypse. Good. Okay, thank you.

I couldn't see it. Too dark outside, but a wave of heat just came over me. Feels like the temperature increased by like 10, 15 degrees. Just compared to the sound of this video, to the sound of the helicopter footage I posted a few days ago, whatever this was, it was definitely not a helicopter. Then he has a tweet that says, oh, thank God.

One of my friends is still alive. He just texted me, and he attaches a screenshot. the text he received from his friend, Daniel. Dude, please tell me you're still alive. Yes, I'm alive. Where the hell have you been? Why did it take you this long to reach out to me after I called you like 40 times?

I'm sorry, but my phone was died, and I was just now able to start charging it. You're still at your house, right? Yes. Okay, good. I'm still a two days drive away, but I'm going for you. I just like that.

I'm like, all right. I'm still two days drive away, but I'm on my way. Where the fuck do you live, dude? Why am I the first person you're coming to you? I'm like, why don't you fucking go somewhere closer? That would look. All right. It's going to take me 14 days to get to you, but I'm on my way right now.

That would actually be like if something happened and I texted you and I was like, I'm on my way. You're like, why? Where are you coming here? What tactical advantage? I saw your tweets I want to be a part of it Don't you have like a wife?

Also if the radio Hold on a second too If the Well to be fair It's only like The television Signals are down How would he says

Everything keeps going in and out Yeah but you would assume after days Right also the last thing that we ever saw There's no news reports anymore It's just no signal Right So it's like yeah there's rolling outages But it kind of just makes it seem like

that the TV stations and stuff aren't able to broadcast anything. Yeah. Which would almost make me think, would you even be able to use your phone? So you're asking the right questions. Just keep that in mind. Thanks.

You're not, you're not crazy. Just keep that tone, right? Thank you for talking to me like a toddler. You're a bit. Also, just want to say this too. Also, while we're in the heat of the moment, I'm going to say this because you got me riled up now. So the very first thing Isaiah says to me this morning, I was in my undies.

I walk over and he says this. He says, yeah, I heard you taking a shower earlier. I popped my camera in and took a video. And I said, that's funny. I just woke up. I haven't taken a shower. I said, Allison took a shower this morning. So I'm like, what, uh, what'd you do to my wife, dude?

Are you done? Are you done with your bit? I was talking to Allison. outside of the shower. And I heard the shower running. There's a ghost in the show. Yeah, there's a, it's the glass shower case. I was talking to her outside of the shower.

Wipe the steam off the glass. I can't see everything. I was not taking videos of your wife in the shower. All right, we'll see. For the record. I'm checking his phone later, so we'll see. Okay, all right. I'll make my own Twitter, ARG, about it.

My best. My best friend's nudes of my wife have vanished. My wife vanished. Just my wife vanished? My friend came over and I can't find my wife. What happened? Yeah, life's been great. Just a Twitter account called My Wai Fanish, Help.

That's the whole account. It's time to talk about something scary. Your health. I know I don't go to the doctor as much as I should. I have a diabetic foot that's rotting off, but I ignore that every day of my life. If I'm bleeding or feeling sick, I'll just lie in bed and sleep it away.

okay, good, I'm still two days drive away, but I'm coming for you. I'm not really sure if that's a good idea or not. Why? What have you seen? Lull, dude. You have no fucking idea. that would be you

in any kind of crisis yeah I like how it's like the world is an end lol dude you can't even imagine the fucking ghouls that I've seen walking around the earth right now you notice you did you notice the sun's gone you cannot

how is how is that not the first thing you say hey have you noticed that it's like the sun has not been up for a week 3 p.m. and it's still like midnight yeah anyways a two day drive away I'm coming what you said was so funny when you're You cannot imagine the ghastly horrors I've seen.

The little gooies walking around. These unfathomable creatures. And now he sends another text that says, now we have another problem. It attaches a photo of what appears to be someone outside of his house. So what's interesting here is that the only lights that are on the street, it looks like the street lamps are burned out, but he has those solar lights on,

the ones that have a self-contained battery. So those things are still running. But all of the power grid stuff like street lamps are out around his. house. Also, I hate to be this guy, but does it not look like there's kind of some sun in this? On the horizon, is that not, is that not a little? Is that not a little? I wouldn't call that the sun. I'm saying that like there are lights over the horizon. That looks like city glow to me. Okay. But you know what? Sure. Sure. Hey, I hate to be that guy, but I'm just like, well, can we focus on the man that is on the sidewalk? I'm tired. I don't want to have to, I don't want to wait till

10 or 11 a night. Can we just fill this at 8.30? Okay. There's a man on the sidewalk. Yes. For people who don't know, there's a spooky man on the sidewalk or like a woman, I can't tell what the hell it is, but there's somebody just standing there. Maybe an alien? Okay. So this guy's been standing completely

still with his back toward me. I have no idea how long he's been standing there. Whoever was standing outside, it's gone now. This was tweeted a few hours after the previous one. And then, a tweet that just says shit, which this video attached. Dude, all you have to do is just just film a door and somebody knocking and it really is.

It's creepy. It works. And like online people, people go hog wild. I could see my fat ass being young, just being like, oh, oh, oh, my. Oh, no one knocks on my door. Especially because, like, the way most people experienced this was like scrolling in bed at night, right? Yeah. Because it's on Twitter, so you're just reading through it.

And then you get to that video. It's like, uh, you know, makes you jump in there. It's almost, it's, uh, it's like being at a slumber party with your friends and you, like read a ghost store or something. And you're like, I think something just said my name. Yeah, very similar vibes. Very, very similar vibes. You're right. You ever have one of those.

The very first time I ever saw a paranormal activity. I, that was all night. Hold on. Shh. Shh. Shh. Guys. Guys.

Did you hear that? Oh my God. What was that? What was that a friend? Mr. Floppy, as you called him. Yeah, the guy, was he there for that paranormal? Yeah, it's so floppy. Was he there that?

He probably was there. He's probably the one saying it. He's probably one saying your name. He's saying your name while he was. Yeah, he's probably just like, did someone say my name? And you just hear his pud hitting his thighs. I was like calling a softcock pud. Isn't that nice? All right, May 4th.

So that was the end of the tweets on May the 3rd, ended with that video. Then May 4th, he says, to those of you asking, I'm doing all right, hiding in my room and whiting this out. Sorry. I'm actually sorry. I just love the idea. It's just such a kid's perspective of the world. For those asking, I'm fine.

I'm hiding out in my room. Oh, God. Sorry. It got me good. That actually got me. It was just a little thing. It's just a little thing that gets you, isn't it? It's like a paper cut.

Okay. You're crying. I am. I got me good. And I hate to keep bringing back this, but I'm just picturing up there with like, he's like 10 empty campels chunky soup cans. I can't go aside in my room.

It's like a kid who's like, if a ghost comes in, I'll hide under the covers. That's going to help. It's like if there's a fucking alien, I better camp out in my room. He can't come up here. My mom won't allow it.

I haven't heard any more knocking but I don't want to get anywhere near the front door to check after this he says this is not going to help the thing you just said and

and don't worry I'm a way to defend myself if worse comes the worst and it's a picture of like a fucking Civil War era a baseball bat. Yeah, you probably don't want to be coming up near here.

Hey, alien, I'm gonna bob, you're real good in that if you don't come here. He's like fucking Tom and Jerry. It's so perfect that right after you complain, he's acts like a 10-year-old child. And he's like, don't worry, guys. So hold on. Would it work if it is like, because it's obviously like kind of a kid's. perspective or a teenager or whatever would it be fucking weird if it's like my you you own that shit and you're like also my parents are gone and i think i think it may i think it

would make it more um the bully the juvenile shit would be you would be like oh my god and your parents are gone because then you can have the angle of like somebody knocking me and like hey let us in it's like my mom it sounds like my mom but it's kind of off so uncanny shit and then instead of showing a fucking baseball bat he's like i climbed in past my dad's nudie magazines i found his fucking gunbox. I'm going to try to figure out the code. Yeah. How sick would that be? He easily shoots himself on the thigh. Oh!

I'm bleeding out, I think. Does Campbell's Chunky disinfect? I keep I keep pouring clam chowder over the wound, but it just gets more inflamed. I haven't mentioned Campbell's Chunky once. I'm too hooked in. I'm too it feels it feels too right

he solves every problem with Campbell's chunky so man audio listeners for this one you are you're missing out it's just a picture you're missing out on these photos man Lord help me I was trying it was so funny because I was like

100 needs to like 100 needs to take the series and I look at the next tweet I'm like well that's going to do it I'm memeing on it but I will say the knocking and stuff. I think that it's this, it's still has legs. We're still so early on.

It's just, it's just getting the, the giggle bug. I'm excited. My friend's here. Is that your coat? Yeah. Okay.

That's why I'm so excited. Isaiah is in town. Yeah. All right. So after that, he says, if anyone knows anything about what's going on,

please message me. 911 and other emergency lines are not responding, and the only radio I have is out in the car. So I'm trying to gather as much information online as I can. What he says that they're not responding, does it mean that it's still probably getting a call tone? Yeah, okay. Yeah, because he says every time it picks up,

it's like he can't get through to anyone, yeah. I see. All right, another one. So that was the end of May 4th, May 5th. He says, I just got a text, another screenshot. Hey, brother. I'm from British Columbia. I don't know much, but I do know that you should never look into the red light.

ever. If you do, you become like the guy who is at your door. Okay. So that's also somebody just getting, he's like basically getting anonymous tip from the other side of the world pretty much. Because all this is, he's putting in on Twitter. Right. So it's like people are supposedly DMing that Twitter account. Yeah. This is followed by another screenshot of a tweet he was tagged in where he says, to be completely honest, I have no idea how to explain this.

And this is a tweet where someone says, I don't get it. It's sunny where I am. So now he's leaning into the fact that this is unique to just him, right? Or at least a few people. Now other people are like, it's sunny here. And he's like, what? How's that? Oh, that's interesting.

So he does bring it back into the real world. Yeah. So he's like, oh, weird. What the fuck? Why is this localized? Yeah, yeah. Yeah. So then another one, he simply says, not good.

And it's a screenshot again from his friend. Dayton. Dayton, yeah. So I have good news and bad news. Good news is I'm closer you now Bad news I'm out of fuel What? That's what he said

Bad news Bad news is I'm going to make that way I can tell when you're Good news is, I'm closer to you now. It's when you do that thing with your eyebrows

where they've heard of hold. Hey, good news. I'm closer to you now. Bad news. I'm out of fuel. Keep going. There are no active gas stations anywhere close to me.

All the power is down and all the gas stations near by our electric gas pumps. Oh no. That's what I have to say. Where does he come from? Also, when was the first time he got the text from him?

So it's been at least two days. It's been to, yes. Because the first. text was May 3rd, I think, right? Yeah, it has to, because he should have been there by now. Yes, he should have got there yesterday or that day, May 6th. No, yeah, it's May 5th, so he should be there that day. So then after that, he says, he isn't even that close.

Sun Vanish says how far away are you and Dayton says. Probably still eight or nine hours away. So he's still quite a bit of. Yeah. And if you're out of gas, too, you can't fucking eight or nine hour drive. What is that? How many miles is that? Hundreds and hundreds of miles.

That's like a several week walk Yeah Has to be So it's like there's no way You're gonna fucking walk that Yeah he's not gonna walk Especially because who knows What's out there attacking people

And the sun's gone What's the part of the country This is supposed to be in? I don't know I feel like I may be wrong about this But I feel like He's not

Even in the US I may be wrong about that I feel like you're probably wrong with that Okay I think he is I feel like there was something in my head Or maybe it was like the creator was from another country

or something like that. I mean, he could be wrong. I could also completely be like misremembering. If it's, if it's in a European country, you would think that he'd be tweeting in his native language then. Which would actually be kind of cool too and people were just like translating it. Yeah, I don't think it is. So I think I'm probably. We'll assume I'm wrong unless it comes up somewhere. So after this, he says, I'm really conflicted. Some of you say I should go. Some of you say I should stay. What should I do? So he has another Twitter poll where the options are stay safe at home or drive nine

hours to date in, to which the majority winning is stay safe at home. But not by much. Fifty-four percent versus 45, so this is actually a close one. It is a close one, but it's also like, like you said, your friend's up a paddle. Up a paddle. He's up a creek without a paddle, right? But he has a car with gas,

so he could hypothetically go get him, but that could be dangerous. Would you come get me? Hell no. Okay. It'd be the same thing, too. If you were like, here, I'm going to come get you. I'll be like, are you actually dense? I would say fucking stay there. I'll figure it out. Or I'm just dead. Let's do a different. because it would be stupid for me to come to you in an event or vice versa, right?

But what if, what if I was already on the way? I'm like, hey, let's hang out. So I'm already on the way. And then the sun vanish thing happens. Now I'm stuck. Would you come get me then? Is that new into the thing? Like the sun just vanished.

It's that recent? Yeah, but there's a reasonable amount of time of me being like, oh, I can't get gas. Yeah, yeah. It's been a day. I'd get you then. Okay. Thank you. I'm saying if we're two weeks without the sun, I'd be like, buddy, good luck.

Yeah, it's like, yeah, at that point I should know better. But I'm saying, like, what the hell are you doing? Yeah, exactly. Yeah, but no, I'm saying like I was on a drive here. Yeah, I would be like, I'll come get you. But I'd be, I would still be pissed about it. You know who else would be pissed about it? Who?

Me, who is driving to your house and then the sun vanishes. I'm not the one who fucking made the sun go away, dude. Neither did I, what are you mean? Yeah, so I'd be like, why are you giving me this fucking attitude? Don't be texting that. I'd be like, are you kidding me? I'm like, don't even fucking come. actually turn around. My attitude would be

fear. I'm out of gas and the sun's calm. What are you talking? I'm like, God, dude. I got Uber, question mark. You know what? Do you think Uber's still active right now? Are you Tom?

You going up there? You going up the road? Yeah, kind of crazy with the sun going out, huh? I would be like, yeah, meet me here and I would lead you to a big hole. There'd be a big hole somewhere and make you go walk and fall into it. That's what I do. And it'd be funny because I'm fat. Fat guy falling.

Whoa. There's like a trumpet playing in the back outside. I'm tumbling down. I can't get up. I'm like a turtle. Role me over on my stomach. That's what I hope happens. That's what would happen.

The next day on May 6, someone is screaming outside and he attaches this video. No! No! Don't know! No! No! No! No!

So what? No! What? I'm just getting a visual on how you were... Okay, all right. You look kind of scared. He looked so quick. You were like straight back at.

Anyway, so he attaches that video. Now he can hear people scream. coming outside. Then says, I'm really, really not sure about leaving now. He attaches another text from his friend. This time, beginning with him saying, how are you avoiding detection? Dayton says, I'm just staying in the car. It's locked and off at the moment. After I catch a few winks, I'm going to try to take a look around. All right. Stay safe. Always, bud. You too. After that, he says, it's been really, really quiet today. I noticed it warmed up after that thing flew over my house again last night. Do you think it's trying to say that like the engines of it,

whatever. I think that's the implication or some kind of, or some energy some field that's propelling it, whatever. Yeah, yeah. So after that, May 7th, he says, I'm really surprised the power stayed on for this long. Only a few outages here and there, but I'm still extremely paranoid that it will go out permanently

anytime now. And again, he has a screenshot of his friend's text, beginning with Dayton's saying, don't worry about me, dude. I'll find a way to get to you eventually. I rocked around for a couple hours. I haven't seen anyone human or otherwise on the highway. So I'm be sure I'll be saved. I'll be here and we'll just i'll figure out what to do do you have enough food and supplies yeah i have enough

even if i'm straighted here for a while don't worry about me worry about yourself so then after this he says you all have been bringing up the solar lights outside they actually aren't solar i have them on a timer outside and i can't turn them off without leaving the house i feel exhausted all the time now i think my internal clock is completely screwed up the next day may 8th he says i can see a faint light outside my bedroom window going downstairs to check it out and he attaches this video this is the faint light hey i think there's a light shining in my house for people that are audio listening it's a giant spear hall-a-o-o-o-o-oan strobe light like cascading tons and tons of lights at the house let me restart it sorry i'm talking over a long i don't want to miss it this important shit

Steve... What did I tell you? Do your filming at another time, all right? It's a Tuesday. Your dad has to get up early for work tomorrow. Also, at the beginning, does it, I can, you hear him breathing, but do you also hear the, like, I thought I heard, like, a screeching sound or something. Like, some kind of like, eh, well, there's that clicking.

Well, there's the clicking sound, but I could have swore I heard, like, an actual, like, screeching thing. Oh, I didn't hear that. I got a little, uh, just, I didn't know if it was supposed to be, like, like a, like a creature's sound. Well, it certainly could be. especially because he heard a person screaming outside yesterday, right? Now, this is right outside of his house, and it's blinking white, and then when it turns red, it's like more aggressive, so speak.

And it's the same kind of sound he heard outside of his house and in the trees when he was walking around outside. I'm surprised he had the gall to get out of his room. I want to get him. You hear that thing? That dude saw, like, the strobe lights downstairs. He's like, I better go check it out. Well, it's just a faint light. But he goes, yeah, just a faint light.

She's a little bit light. Shining directly into his living room. I think someone's trying to give me, like, a message. I don't know what this means. I think it's candlelight. He then falls this up as I'm saying, I cannot believe I'm still alive with another screenshot. Which also, I think the name is Danian.

Or Danian, not Daniel. Danian, Dayton, whatever. Danion, crayon says... You didn't look directly to the red light, right? Yes. You were absolutely sure. Yeah, I'm sure. Which street did both of us live on when we were kids?

Why? Answer the question. Fraser Road. Okay, we're good. Damn, don't scare me like that. So then after that, there's another screenshot the same conversation continued where crayon danian found is that it danian yes danian found this while he was walking and says those looking around just found this

nor earthy idea what it means and then the writing he found says beware of headlights so for one i feel like if he just said you didn't look at the light did you uh he would know that that relates to it somehow, but sure, whatever. He found writing that says, beware of headlights. Then the sun vanish has another tweet that says, sometimes I feel like I have a good handle on this whole situation and I'm thinking rationally and logically, but other times I feel like bawling. Next day, May 9th, he says, day nine, sorry about that tweet last night. What happened at the window got to me a bit. Anyway, I'm currently in touch with a couple of people with some experience and some info on what's going on. So there's a long text chain with a new character on Twitter named Tucker

who will become very important later. So this is part of that text chain. So to give you some background, my name is Tucker. I live in Virginia. I was working a night shift when all of this shenanigans went down. Just about to clock out for the day when I realized the sun wasn't up like normally was when I clocked out. I kind of shrugged it off at first,

but after a few hours, I was getting really worried. I lived close to a relatively large city, so you can imagine what I had to go through when riots started. Long story short, when I was heading out of town to get away from the mess, I met this guy named Flynn, who was talking about these things that hunt people down. At this point, I didn't believe him, but I started to notice that the crowds and traffic congestion on highways started slowly dissipating. Before you know it, the roads were completely empty.

Terrifying shit. Flynn and I started traveling together after that. We have been finding dark places to hide, enough food and water to stay alive, and we were doing pretty good for the first week. But then just a few days ago, he came back inside after taking a leak and started losing it. kept going on and on, just talking nonsense. It went on for days, and I was worried that all this stress from the situation got to him. Well, one day, it all stopped, and he wouldn't speak, wouldn't even acknowledge me, just stood like a statue for probably a full 12 hours.

Then he attacked me out of nowhere. I tried and tried to keep him away, but he just wouldn't stop. I had to stop him. There wasn't anything else I could do. Anyway, I've been living on my own for the past couple of days. It's been tough, but thankfully I found an area with power on the internet, which is why I can talk to you. Thank you for sharing your story. I'm sorry to hear about Flynn. Pretty big emotional swing there, but he thinks, please share my story. I want people to know what happened.

Of course. So this is one of the things I found interesting about the sun vanished, right? Because you were right earlier about the whole choose your own adventure route, because every time people vote something, he does it. But then we get these accounts from like people that are. out. So I wonder if people voted like, oh, you should go get your friend, if things like that would have happened to our main character. He would have came across the writing that says beware of headlights. He would have maybe got a message from someone who was in their house and saw the flashing lights. But because people voted for him to stay home, it's like they switch perspective. I also wonder to with the same kind of, I was thinking the same thing where I wonder if he introduces this character named Tucker where he's like, I know I'm going to use this character. But if he would have gone out, maybe his car would have broken down and he

would have met a guy named Tucker. It would have ran into rather than like getting DM from him on Twitter. So like a lot of the stuff in the story is like hiding in the room, stuff like that, very conventional horror tropes, very basic. But I do like little instances like that where it's like, oh, there was some thought put into how information is going to get figured out based on what Twitter audiences want to see kind of thing. So after that, he says,

while I've been trying to collect info online, I completely forgot to check in on Danion yesterday. He still hasn't responded to any of my text. so then after that he says i swear to god it sounds like someone is banging on my door but there's no way in hell i'm going downstairs to check so similar to what uh we were making fun of him before earlier where he's like oh i think i heard something outside and he goes downstairs he's now like yeah that's not happening again so now he's just completely staying in his room but you can hear something that's like hitting outside and it's not the knocking

from before. It sounds like something slamming their head onto it. As funny as the mention was in Tucker's text, where he's like, I stood next to this guy for 12 hours. That is kind of a funny thing. Tucker just being like, yeah, he stood there for 12 hours

and Tucker's just kind of sitting there just like, also there's nothing to do. No. So they're sitting in complete sounds. And it's pitch black. It's just like, you know, it's been 12. hours is getting a little weird Flynn and then he kills him yeah he's like well I had to beat

the hell out of him which also kind of makes Tucker in a weird light doesn't it yeah he's just staying there being weird so I killed him well it says he attacked well yes I know at the very least but he wasn't just like I'm sorry old boy you're being put down girl but it's like people look

into the red lights and then they become catatonic and then they're just become violent or whatever so is this like is this like an alien that's at his door is it one of these people that have been converted. I don't know. I mean, whenever you have alien movies and they're unable to, like, get into a house,

I'm always like, that doesn't seem like a higher life form that's able to travel through stars. What's the scariest alien movie to you? Honestly, still, I'd probably say signs. Really? Just, I don't know why. But also, it was like one of the first ones I watched.

But I think it's just more so the home invasion style of it. There was that new Hulu one where it's like a girl, it's like there's like no dialogue in the whole movie or something and it's like a weird I don't know it was a new movie there was some good moments in that but signs is always just a classic to me the uh what's that one fourth kind yeah is it called invasion it's not invasion

no no you're talking just the fourth kind yeah the fourth kind yeah with me uh whatever the girl from Resident Evil yeah yeah that was pretty freaky and then that one fucked me up when I was younger I was sitting there and I was like sorry to cut you up but the uh that one fuck me up because in that movie it's like uh there's a part where she's like it's like floating and it's like there is

no god, whatever. And I remember going to my mom being like, oh, they said they're still a god. Whatever, and she's like, what the fuck are you on? I was like, I'm so funny. I only wanted to watch it just because I got kind of hard watching, you know, the Mia chick from the Resident Evil movies and Fifth Element.

You know, so that's why I wanted to watch it. And I was like, I had an existential crisis when I was just trying to have fun. You scared me. There was also, what was it? Oh, when I was a kid, War of the Worlds, the Tom Cruise one. That's a great one. It freaked me out pretty good. That scene where they have like the,

the eye down in the basement looking around. Well, even the, just the that was like, the creepiest part of that movie isn't even the fucking aliens. It's like the guy who's in the house who's like,

oh yeah, also you're going to stay here forever now. And he's going crazy and he's trying to dig and he's making noise and he said Tom Cruise beats him to death. Yeah, you have to. Yeah.

That's the, I rewatched it. That scene's so medicine where he shuts the door that cut like right before he kills him. That's so wild. That's actually a really good movie. Movie rules.

Also when Tom Cruise is running and everyone's getting like eviscerated into dust and he comes back and they're like, what happened he has like he has like dead human ash all over him yeah and he's just he's just like right after that scene when the girl when a dakota fanning runs away and he opens the door and it's like the alice and wonderland shot but it's blood and veins everywhere so sick that was that was a really cool movie no the movie rules yeah do you remember okay we're completely oh do you remember when everyone's fighting to get on that ferry and it's like please take my kids

and stuff like that like titanic mean and then immediately they get to the other side and there's more of them and they just like wipe everyone. Yeah, they just get eviscerated basically. That was so cool. It's a good movie. That was a good movie. I hated it for a long time because the Dakota fanning screaming bothered me, but that was such a minor point. Yeah, children screaming in horror movies. The most

egregious is the Babadook. That movie is like almost hard to fucking get through it. It's got that thing but she has that scene where she's like, why can't you be normal? Yeah, well, I mean, it's definitely going over the top for our purpose, whatever. I mean, I feel so bad for the mom. Honestly, when she gets like, transformed it and she's trying to kill him, I'm like,

you get him, get him, get him. You deserve this. When he's in the backseat, that car and he does that scream. I remember, like, being in the theater being like, oh, God, I just don't know if I can handle it. I don't know if I can take this for a whole movie. Anyway, son vanished, yeah. So, he's hearing someone hit his door outside. That's the last thing he says on May 9th. The next day, May 10th, he says, it got in. I don't know how, but it got in and I am hiding, and he posts this video. I like that. I like the kind of interpretation of this, like the kind of interpretation of this, like, extra, or,

being as like a light. Like, I mean, sure, it's like a machine they're controlling or something like that. Well, I mean, the parallel of it's nice is the sun vanished and now the only light source is the thing that's like trying to kill you. Yeah, it's like an angler fish. Yeah. Darks everything out, come to the light. Yeah, it's a, uh, that

like that parallel is really nice. Yeah. It's, it's very creative. And the idea of like, oh, it's in the house and then like you creak open the door and you can see the strobing light. And also too, like, you're getting sucked in more to just the sound. Yeah, the little like, It almost seems like a fan

With like a piece of like it's hitting plastic or something Like just like a Mm-hmm Something weird like that It almost sounds like a You know animals that have like like sonar They move by infrasound You know that do that

Oh like almost like a Geiger counter Yeah yeah yeah Like they're sensing the surrounding They're looking for prey or something like that Right It's just an interesting visual to be Oh the light the light's the thing I'm afraid of After he says I'm sorry if I'm gone for a while

I have to stay hidden and keep my phone off it produces light i am so sorry that's the last thing he says may 10th he continues may 11th and says it's finally gone i think i'm safe now i didn't stick around to get a good look but they are big and they can move fast as hell when they want to i have no idea how but the front door is unlocked and wide open the alarm never came on either i guess it got reset during one of the blackouts some good news for once danion's back before you all ask he seems to be in his right mind i need to get serious about securing my house. He then attaches a photo and says,

it's primitive, I know, but it's a first step, and apparently more reliable than my alarm system. Let me know if you all have any other ideas to keep my house secure. And he said, go ahead. Make your point. Go ahead. Nick, what do you think about this

defense mechanism for his new alarm for his house? It may or may not be a pyramid of Red Solo Cops. My boy, definitely just did cup stacking at his school. Don't worry. If the giant clicking light comes in my room, I'll hear the cups fall. Yeah, the red solo cups will fall alerting me.

And giving me the perfect advantage. Go to the replies real quick. What's the lines on the floor to supplement? Then, okay, so that one's being serious. Scroll down and just seeing the first guy. You out here playing home alone. There we go. Boy, you'd never hear that over the screaming.

He needed to watch Home Alone when all this is over, man. Come on. This isn't technically an alarm. That's funny. Yeah. That's what's about this being on Twitter. You could always see people being like, this is the dumbest. What are you doing?

Well, I mean, it's, oh, and he has another way of security as well. And there's another phone. He says, I have another way of security attaches this photo. He's got 10 games. I mean, he's like, I'm, I put a, I put another one on the other side of the door and because I want to talk to it. It's funny, like,

because the point of like a audio alarm is so you have time to do something, right? Get a weapon, escape out a window, but he can't do anything. No. So this just tells him he's about to die. That's all an alarm system would do. It's like, hey, you're about to be decimated.

He just wakes up from Red Solo Cubs fall and he just, gulp also too it's weird the story keeps sucking me in being like oh that's kind of a fun concept and then it does like yeah like this weird home alone shit where I'm like

just cut that out he can't help himself honestly too it would have been cool I'll save for the end but he then says it's getting colder again I'm running low on food and water I feel like I could sleep for a week and then he says I hope so

and shows more text with Daniel I found a car with a decent amount of gas in the tank all I need is a siphon don't worry bud i'll be there soon danian's determined it's also funny to imagine that he's like he's been walking for three days danian and he's like oh i'll bring this gas back to my car i just need to suck it out i'll drink a little bit of gas in my mouth

get a little bit of gas in my system pass out and then wake up and bring it back to my car all right so then may 12th the next day says i have a confession to make i've been keeping something from you all I did Harry gas So he says Over the course of the last week I've been increasingly paranoid about someone or something coming into my house

while I'm sleeping And I don't think it's one of those lights It feels different I can't explain it But I can sense it Last night after I put cans on door handles I've been waking up to clanging sounds But I'm not certain if it's real

Or just my imagination So now it's time to put my paranoia to the test. Oh, yeah. See, he's pulling a, he's pulling a nice little parallel activity here. Yeah, is that powder or salt? I'm guessing it's flour. Or something. Put it flour across the floor to see if

anything disturbs. He thinks walking around in the house. Also, he says that it's colder now, so that implies if there was a ship or something like that overhead, it's like gone now. That's what I'm assuming. Every time it gets colder again, that's like... The blinking light, the light things are gone. Yeah. But there could be something else. Any time it starts warming up, you're like, oh, the things

are probably close. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. He says, you're right. It's flower. Because he says, if the flower is disturbed, we will know. That's the end of May 12th. May 13th, he says. A person from British Columbia who messaged me earlier just sent me this. It's a screenshot of what appears to be him in a house. And there's like a silhouette. Like a dark silhouette.

Yeah. He could not have taken a clear photo here. He's like behind some kind of ridge or something. But it's clearly just a dark, like somebody in like a black morph suit. That's how I would describe it, like a black morph suit, shadowy figure. Yeah. standing over off the side of the room so that's what's happening with that guy

doesn't say anything else May 13th but May 14th he says I had a nightmare about that picture just woke up to more screaming outside screaming isn't like last time very sporadic can't tell where it's coming from floor's untouched keep trying to record the screaming when I hear but the microphone isn't picking it up I think the screaming

is coming from the neighbor's house that's the end of May 14th so it's also interesting about this is everyone's too afraid to go outside so everyone on the street could be dead or everyone's just like you and hiding their house If you were in the situation, would you even, would you check to see? Because you probably know your neighbor, at least. Would you at least try to go over and be like, hey, what the fuck is going on?

Or would you just stay put? If I had like a gun, probably. Even like, let's say you have a baseball batter. Even earlier before, before you're like, well, that's why isn't like, oh, this is weird. You haven't walked over. And yeah, there's like some weird stuff. But as soon as the news report, I think yes. Yeah.

But the issue is he's also heard screaming outside, seen running, and someone was standing facing away on his front. I mean, if there is, by this point, if they're screaming outside if there's, even like, when you start hearing the screaming outside, that would be deterrent enough for me to not fucking go out there. Because you would also assume like, oh my God, that's my neighbor. Yeah. Or something along those lines, right? Right. So you wouldn't want to, I mean, I'm just saying early, early on, I'm surprised that there wasn't more of an effort to be like, I should probably go see if anybody else is having this issue or is it just me or, you know, or in terms of like my TV's going out or do they have power? Like, I don't

know. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I think early on, yes, but at this point, no. But it sounds like whatever the screaming was coming from the neighbor's house. Right. Next day, May 15th, he says, this has been on my mind lately, and a screenshot of a text from Daniel. Sun Vanish says, just curious, what year did we graduate high school?

Lo, what? And then Sun Vanish says, never mind. Kind of a suspicious response to his question. Well, what? Because earlier Daniel was the one asking questions. And he was serious about it, too. He should know. They should be doing checkups periodically.

In this situation, yeah. Yes. There should be a constant. Also, him, him being like, oh, I found a tank of gas. I'm coming. It's like,

that's just kind of convenient. And you kind of brought the idea. It's like, we've been walking. Yeah, it's like, you've been walking three days, but oh,

I found gas. What I'm wondering, though, does he like, hey, can you shoot me your address again? Yeah. And that's,

that's going to be suspicious. Yeah. Even though an alien, he's on all of our street. Well, do they really know how to read our deal? I don't know, because I don't know the logistics shit of like because people look into the red light and then they become like violent they become something else so I guess he could like they could

like siphon his mind or memory or something yeah like it does that connect you do a hive mine where you would know that does that make you like a drone where you don't know that does it just also make you because it's implying that you don't have your previous memories right because yeah that's true so you wouldn't remember like where his home address was and stuff like that so some memories are gone at least so things says, I know you all don't trust Daniel. I've been reading your tweets and messages, but I just can't bring myself to confront him.

He's my friend. I don't have an abundance of those right now. The person who sent me the picture a few nights ago hasn't responded. Flyer test hasn't worked yet. The reoccurring screaming outside. I'm about ready to snap. He then says, what?

I thought he already knew my address. I know it was coming. Unless, and then it's a text from Daniel where he says, I'm a couple hours away now. What's your address again? Yeah, see, that's suspicious as far. Yes. yeah especially after because earlier danian was like uh hey what i forget what question he asked he was

like where did we go what county whatever no it wasn't it what street did we live on yes what it was what street did we live on so he knows what he know or at least what street they grew up on whatever yeah and now uh so like he understands asking questions and as soon as the sun vanish is like what year did we graduate he's like oh that's stupid why would you ask me that that's weird so then the sun vanish says i can't believe i'm doing this should i trust danian to which he He sets up a poll and 75% say, no. 25% say yes.

And what I love is the top comment here says, dude, give his address to him. If he knows, you'll know it's him. Whoa. Big brain. Yeah, I love that. You know that motherfucker's son of that tweet and he was like this. Sorry, son vanished, but I think I just kind of toppled this tower over.

It'll be so funny if you get to one of these replies and you're like, look at this idiot. It's just me. Yeah, Twitter eight years ago. Who else is afraid? Yeah, I'm too scared why now. Who else is actively peeing their pants right now? So the next day, he sends another screenshot, this one from Daniel, where he says,

Dude, where are you? I've been waiting. And then another screenshot, this time Sun Vanish says, I'm not even sure anymore. Screenshots a conversation between the two that goes as such. Answer my question, what year did we graduate high school? But we don't have time for this. Answer my question. Answered the question.

Are you okay? I'm fine. I'm sorry to say this, but I'm not sure I trust you. Likewise. Well, I guess that's that then. The way that reads to me, cool. The way that reads... That's what I think.

Well, I guess that's pretty much the end of this, then. The way that reads to me is like, it's like an entity that's trying to coax him when he says, no, it's like, okay, and kind of like turns away. Did you see sinners? No. Okay. You have to say, I'm trying to reference it to something else. Just an entity that's trying to convince the, to coax him away.

Go ahead, make your bet. Okay. Um, I guess this is where we part ways. Okay. All right. You get it. Also, too, you can't answer the question. We don't have time for this.

You texting back this is taking longer. Daniel's clearly been. Yes, he's clearly, fuck. But the humor in that for me Is that the alien is like He does a fucking Jim Hopper Well I guess this is where we better do

It's like Where the fuck did you pick that up from alien Glib glorb Glob glob glib Erm glibby glorb Welp Welp my glib Glib

You're gonna want to glib this May 17th He says Since you all won't stop Timing me about updates Here's updates for you There's some sast There is

Yeah Well you guys won't fucking leave me alone I haven't slept since the screaming Ran out of bottled water days ago Been drinking from the faucet Very close to running out of food too And I hope losing my only close friend Will be worth it

Happy God what a sassy That's some ass off of that, man. I just woke up and came downstairs to this. Oh, my God. And it's pictures of the flower on the floor has been kicked around. Look at this.

Yes, I'll die. Thank you, Top Reply. Very helpful. Basically, the flower is just disrupted. So something has been an ounce. That looks like a footprint. Well, this looks like an actual footprint to where I'm thinking that. It's probably a human.

that's been like, what's his name again? Daylon, Dayton. Danian, which I think Dan, I bet you it's fucking Danian lurking around. Yeah, probably, because he was on his way there, right? He says, I don't know if it's Danian. I don't know if it's someone else, but I don't plan on sticking around to find out. It's not safe here anymore. Packing up and I'm leaving. It's been in the back of my mind for a while, but I'm heading out to the neighbor's house where I've been hearing the screaming. Wish me luck. I'm staying low and staying away from street lights and other light. sources using my flashlight sparingly. Okay, so once you hear the screaming, do not go to your neighbor's house.

Well, it was like too little too late by this point. Yeah, like what are you going to do? Oh, I've got my cans. I guess to be fair, when you look at the, so he posted a picture and it says, this is where I heard the screaming from, I'm sure of it, which is like, it looks like the front of his neighbor's house in their front yard. But even in their, look, does this look, this looks like a lights on here, right? Or no?

I bet you're right. to where at least there that's at least a little sign of life. I've thought about this, but that would actually be, imagine a scenario where the power's out, which he says the power's sporadic. So it's not explicitly supernatural,

but imagine a scenario where there's like a total blackout and you hear screaming and then that house has all the lights on inside. That's kind of freaky. Well, it would be cool to have a video of him looking over and he's like, oh shit,

I just looked at my neighbor's house and like up in the bedroom, there's just a strobing. Ah, that'd be pretty cool, yeah. It'd be so. It's just going hopping from house to house driver. It goes white to red. You can see it moving through. He then

says, here we go. He's exploring the neighbor's house now. Fucking sun vanish might be an alien, those long ass fingers. Good Lord. Hello? Was that Nick? Hello? I heard you guys screaming.

Have you seen the light people? Has a son been walking around your backyard lately? Hello? Hello? It's floor behind me, isn't it? He says, I found fresh food and water here, checked every room to be sure I'm alone. It's not just in my head.

I know I heard screaming. It was ongoing. And I'm glad I came to investigate because now I have food, water, and a safer place to stay. There have been no signs of activity outside whatsoever. So he's going to stay at the neighbor's house now? Yeah, because, well, they know they can get into his, right?

And he doesn't see it. Well, he knows there is something there because earlier mentions I feel a presence, and now he's seen the flower kicked around. So if something can and has been to his house, this house has food and water, and I wouldn't take the time to try to carry it back. Do they,

literally just the videos of him being in an empty suburban house, very effective. Yeah. So effective. Yeah. I mean, it's just like, just a picture from the outside. Also, think about that.

Think about being like you're in your home and then some event happens. And now you're staying in the neighbor's house, but it's dark. You have to go check all the rooms. You've got to clear it out. Well, also staying in someone else's home already. that would be so on edge.

What if someone just comes back? How are you going to explain? I don't know. It's just... It's weird. It's creepy, yeah. So the next one's for May the 19th. This is from our lovely Nate.

From his notes, he says, hear a new character named Tucker or T.H. Mad Joy on Twitter, who has been mentioned once before and has responded to the Sun Vanished tweets a couple of times begins posting on his own. So he begins posting on his own here and whoever's tweeting will be to

noted. So there's another Twitter account called Tucker that starts his own series during this time. So we're going to bounce back between Sun Vanish and Tucker. So on May 19th, Tucker says, I don't know what's happening exactly, but something's changed. There's a lot more activity outside than I have ever seen before.

And if I remember, Tucker was in Virginia. Yes. Yes. With Flynn. The, uh, do we assume that this is just the Sun Vanish creating multiple accounts? Or is this, uh, multiple people? Okay. So you think it is just him? Yes, because later, if I remember, Tucker wraps in,

like they wrap into each other, the two accounts. But it's from the perspective as if it's multiple people, this is happening to. Well, that's fine. I just didn't know if it was like, oh, this person was inspired, started doing it as well. No, it's part of the Sun Vanish. Oh, okay. I'm almost positive, yeah.

Because, yes, because Tucker's info is feeding into the Sun Vanish, like his screenshots and stuff like that up until this point. So this is also still only been going, at this point, it's only been going on two weeks. Sun Vanish stuff has on Twitter, so. so after Tucker says that the next day May 20th the sun vanish says I've been taking a break from the internet for a bit

trying to recuperate myself my mind is much clear now than it was before I don't know what the catalyst was but something changed when I left my home so like whatever presence he was still with over there he doesn't have to anymore the next day Tucker says it's been getting worse I don't have any windows for obvious reasons but I can hear

it all I can see a blue light from the crack under my door new introduction to a new color the only thing we've seen so far is white and red white and red white seems to be like a searching red seems to be like a hostile thing right or like the thing that turns people so we don't know what blue is um but that line from tucker's also interesting i don't have any windows for obvious reasons i assume he means so he can't see the lies well i think by this point everybody knows that if you look into the light you go it like is able to get you so you got to board up it's like um very um what was that movie bird box or like they would like cover up all the windows so because if they looked at it they would immediately like try to kill themselves similar thing like don't look outside yeah May 22nd the sun vanish says what's going on and then at's Tucker it says please message me so Tucker does not post for a while after this so next few days will only be the sun banished so it can be assumed that when Tucker tweets something the Sun

vanished is seeing it then being like what's going on yeah they're kind of like they're really going to start interacting they're interacting with each other yeah so the May 23rd the Sun vanish says I think I discovered something interesting I need to do an experiment to make sure detail soon. So the next day, May 24th, he says, the glass of water is from a neighbor's house I've been staying at. The bottle is from my house about a week

ago. It says, is it just me or is the water from my house darker? The old boy puts a meoed in that. Is that? Hold on the bottle, yeah, the bottle's from his house. Yeah, the glass is clear, but in the bottom of his water bottle, it looks like there's... It's like a dark fluid or something. It almost looks like purple.

Yeah. Like a dark, like an extremely dark purple. So, something that was in his house right is like tainted the water supply but the new house is fine so that's another interesting point at his house he felt like a present something weird but now that he's here he feels better

all of a sudden well now I'm wondering too if something lurks around or if the light shines on stuff is it deteriorating or is it like toxifying shit or maybe they're targeting him like specifically somehow through this water source or something yeah so after this he says I feel terrible

for what I did and said to Danion which you should not because Danion is 100% a meat puppet at this point? Yes, sir. He was gone. On May 26th, he says, it's too quiet. I don't like this.

I was walking past the coffee table, and I noticed this sticking out from under a couple of magazines. Remember, don't look into the light. Don't move. They see motion. Don't produce light.

They will see. The strobe question marks? That looks very slender man, doesn't it? It does. That's immediately what I thought I was like, is this actually going into a fucking slender man? Wouldn't that be crazy.

I'd be like, I would say we have got to fucking stop. operating stories that just all go back to Slender Man. Anyone else see that tall white guy with a suit? Another ticket to be referenced. I guess this is Slender Man. Makes me wonder if there's anything else around the house.

Notes, papers, anything. I'm going to check and poke around. Found nothing yet. Still no response from Daniel or Tucker. I feel isolated. So also, are we to assume that the last people that live there wrote that note? Yes. Yeah.

But things don't work out well for them if the screamings anything to go off of. Well, also, too, would you not think like, okay, well, I'm going to stay here, but I guess you would think that, okay, they're not going to show back up because they probably think that everyone here is already gone. Yeah. So it's like, well, we don't need to go there. We've already snuffed out that place. Right, yeah. May 27th,

he says, guys, Danion is still alive. He just texted me. Haddanian says, Listen, I know you don't trust me and I don't trust you. If you are still you, you have to get low. Get out of sight. Whatever it takes. Fuck you, Danian. So you think this is still it trying to get in his good grace.

I guess but I don't know I still don't trust him May 28th he says I've taken Daniel's advice but I haven't seen or heard anything yet Still deathly quiet Whatever flew over my house before is back This time it isn't leaving

He then says this thing is making sounds I've never heard before The vibrations are shaking the house With this video attached That's the house shit That's That's fun Yeah, kind of like a weird, ethereal

Kind of makes you think of the Mandy soundtrack. Yeah, yeah. Weird, like, synthy, kind of, like, super high pitch. Almost sounds like synthetic bells. Yeah, like, it's so strong, like, it's rupturing. It's shaking at the house. I thought it was a fucking motorcycle for a second. It's almost like it knows he's in there.

It's like trying to, like, shake him out. Almost like the way you would with, like, there's like a bug and like something. You're like, you know, like try to tear, like, shake, physically shake him out of the house. Like your cat in a box. Yeah, like a cat in the box, yeah. I couldn't see anything out of the normal expression I was just gonna roll with it

shaking a cat I don't know what you Missouri people do I was gonna let that one slide you put your cat in a box you shake it out you gotta shake them real longer shake the cat out of the box that hasn't been coined

I want everyone to refer to that as it's as if it's very very normal you gotta get the cat out of the box classic scenario shake it out oh cat out of the bag that's the that's the phrase yeah we're gonna we're gonna update it though it needs to evolve into a box

The cat's in a box. All right, there you go. How do I not get the cat out of a bag? It's such a normal expression. Well, no, the expression is now the cat's out of the bag. Yeah, now the cat's out of the bag. It's not applying. It's hard to get the cat out of the bag.

It's the line that when the cat gets out, there's a problem. The box one makes it refer to, why do we put the cat in the box in the first place? Schrodinger's cat. That's Schrodinger, that's different. And he was, when he was done with it, he was like, do you want the cheese? Is that that experiment? No. Does he give him cheese?

No. There's no, what do you think Schrodinger's cat is? He's like, if you get the, if you eat, if you eat this cheese, you'll get out of the box. Is that not it? What is Schrodinger's cat? Are I saying his name right? Schrodinger. Schrodinger.

Schrodinger. It's a thought. What, if you get this cheese. you can get out of the box. I thought he was just tempting with cheese. Is he not? Is there cheese involved at all? In Schrodinger, there's no cheese.

The idea of Schrodinger's cat is that if a cat is placed into a box that cannot be observed and in an experiment, the cat is killed. Why was the reason the cat was killed again? So where does the cheese come involved then? There's no cheese. There's literally no cheese. There's no cheese at all. I mean, maybe they put poison in the cheese, but I have no memory of cheese.

Is it poisonous cheese? Is that where the cheese is that? think there's cheese. Is there legitimately no cheese in this? I don't think there's any cheese involved. I have, I swear to God, in my life, I've talked about it. I'm like, I've definitely been like, yeah, you put the cat in the box. I was like, the cheese. And like, people are like, yeah. I think people are like, sure. Whatever, I legitimately, I'm so shell-shock, there's no cheese. If there is cheese, it's such a minimal part of the experiment. I thought that legitimately thought that it was a guy being like, if you, you will get cheese if you get out of the box.

It's about killing a cat and that it's the, in statistics. like odds. I thought cheese. The cat is equally dead and alive until observed. The whole point it gets used is that in experiments, like the result is two things until observed is one thing effectively. It applies to

like quantum physics, yeah. A result is two things until known as one. I know cheese at all. There's no cheese in the experiment no. After that, he says, I couldn't see anything out the window, but I quickly snapped a few

pictures just in case before taking cover. And it says, I can't believe what I'm looking at and post the picture. The picture is like, it looks like a fucking Ava angel. Doesn't it? Yeah. Yeah, it does. A little geometric. A pyramid shape floating up in the sky, yeah.

Basically it looks like a, kind of like a crash bandicoot crystal. That shape, the giant like geometric shape. Yeah, like that's like a protruding, uh, protruding sharp edge off of it as well. And it's hard to tell how big it is off this photo, but it looks huge. Big as a house at least, if not like much bigger. Yeah, it looks huge. Next day, May 29th. says day 30. It's still there, still making noise. I've locked myself in the bathroom where

there's no windows trying to fall asleep. And then says, I just woke up to this, post a picture. Ooh, the blue light. Of now the blue light, fully outside of the door. Hmm. Blue light outside the door. I wonder what, I wonder if there's different stages. You have the white lights there. It looks like whenever you're detected. It looks like whenever you're detected, it switches to red. So I'm wondering what the blue is going to emphasize. Blue light could be a later stage thing. The initial invasion's done. You would think so. It's part of something else. maybe. Something, yeah. He then says on May 30th, the blue light finally disappeared and that thing flew off and left.

He then says, should I leave the bathroom now or stay put for a while longer? The poll by 5% more says leave. And again, this is something cool that I like. Like, you know, it's like choose your own adventure, people pick, and then the story follows that route, right? May 31st, he says, I left the bathroom. I'm trying my best to stay calm as I type this, but I think there's a dead body in the middle of the street. There's no way I'm taking a picture of a dead body. that's too gruesome. I'm just going to try to avoid it. So then two days pass without any updates

from the sun vanished or Tucker. Now what's also interesting about this, you got to keep in mind is like, if you were reading this like I was as it was happening, it's like the picture of the blue light is all you got for 24 hours. And then you got another bit 24 hours later. Yeah, I mean, you get to have time to spend. It was kind of the same thing. We said something similar during like Gregory 88 where you're constantly just waiting for updates and then you're speculating with you're speculating with commenters. And any time that, like, you see a tweet in your feed from it, you like go to the account, like, okay, how many did I miss? And you go back and read up, yeah.

June 2nd, after two days past, he says, to take my mind off of what is outside, I dug deeper into the piles of books and papers scattered around the house. And I found something intriguing to which he sheds a picture of a folder that he found. It says there's a series of photos of the mysterious notebook. So he has three photos in total from the notebook. I regret my decision to stay. It has gotten incredibly lonely And I have come to terms with it In fact that I may never see

Martha or my grandkids again This is an old man's writing Look this writing This is how an old man writes I pray to God that they At the very least are safer than I am I have no real caution or a god For my own life anymore

I can only hope that what I gather from my near suicidal experiments can be useful to someone else at a later date. I either die and be at peace or get more information. Both outcomes sound favorable. And what I love,

what I absolutely love about this, there is so much room still left on the line paper. And then he wrote on the back of it. You can already tell he wrote on the back of it. You know what's really good about this? This would be the best thing we ever read. if the next page starts.

It's like, I found a cat and a piece of cheese. I would, I just, I bet we're done. I'm literally done reading. Oh, okay, so the old band has experiment notes. Experiment notes.

Just in case I forget, this is, I'm labeling it. I placed several blocks of cheese. No kidding. I placed several flashlights around the perimeter of the house, testing them at different intensities. The control being no light at all.

I believe the entities are more attracted to the flashlights than myself. I got back inside before any permanent damage was done. Experiment notes again. Blue lights appeared after day six in the dark. Significance? Question mark? Light sources do not seem to attract their presence. Unlike the entities producing white slash red flashing lights,

the blue lights are higher in elevation and almost seems. to come from a different entity altogether. I believe the blue lights will also be more likely to move in unison. However, there's no way to know for certain until they return, if they return at all. Kind of sound like Connor from Love on the Spectrum, don't I? Yeah. It's not a love, it's just a crush. Experiment notes, and now it's all, he's getting a little wacky with his handwriting.

I have Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. It finally happened. I was being reckless and I looked into the light. the red light I feel empty inside the sun is back I do like the sun is back but it's funny to think that like a man going crazy is just going to like scribble I'm wonky

I feel my my earthly ties leaving my hands are so tired if it wasn't this it would have been something else I'm old but I do like the whole idea the sun is back the sun is back is good which is also him going crazy and he's able to see something. He's getting revealed something

whenever he goes crazy, which is kind of fun. It's like, oh, it's, we see the beauty. Like there's some revelation they have, right?

Yeah, the sun is back is really good. So what was his conclusion off the blue lights? The blue lights showed up when? It's an entity, a different entity altogether is what he's saying. He's saying that the white and red flashing lights are,

they seem to be attracted more by the flashlight, from what I remember. He said, but the blue entity doesn't seem to be affected by the flashlight at all. It just seems like something different. I'm guessing that that's, like, the elite, more advanced entity, is what I would assume. He also says it's elevated. So I don't know if he means elevated is in, it's like up in the sky, shooting a light in,

or if it's literally like floating, like you can't hear it walking around. Yeah. Because it also proves that maybe whenever he was in, the house and the flower wasn't disrupted. It could have been a blue light. It went in and just floated above it. Could have been one of those. It got past the solo cups and the cans. I don't know.

I don't know. They're not. But that's a advanced time. I would recommend stacking cups. As long as no one finds their true weakness. Yeah, yeah. The red solo cups. Please.

Upside down. Then do haste, make haste. Raid the stores and get solo cups. The solo cups are back. And the cans. Peel the labels off the cans to make it look more old-timey. Whatever a hobo. Become a hobo.

Whatever you do, don't. don't leave a house where you've stacked the solo cups upside down. Never leave the house. Also, watch Dennis the Menace on VHS if you find it. It has the answers. The writer's like,

oh no. God, the writer with his fucking freakishly long fingers. Have you seen the guy's hands? His hands were pretty rough. He walked in the house before you, he like watched in the house. I was like, damn, dude. It's like everything everyone wants the hot dog hands. It was like that.

He like, oh, that's up, hello? Glib, glorb. This motherfucker is an alien already. Holy hell. Fire in the sky? Glyb, lorb. So after this, he says, yes, the sun is still gone.

I've no clue what this journalist's talking about. Seems like the same talking nonsense Tucker was talking about with his friend Flynn. So we can assume Flynn was also having a similar, like, revelation. You'd be kind of a good way to show somebody's kind of becoming a bit senile when writing on line paper

instead of just doing squiggly lines being like oh there goes my mind if what have you kept so on every every time you're writing you were writing in the lines

then the next one is like you're writing but you're like writing on a line and on the last note you're just you're writing your sentences but they're all over each other on the same line so it's like I'm trying to read what you're writing

but it's like he wrote it and then he wrote the next sentence on top of it I think that'd be kind of cool I almost positive in the Mandela catalog, they do that. I feel like when someone You've never seen it. I know it. I'm friends with the creator of it. So I'm familiar of it. But

I didn't know. No, I actually know him like really well. I've lost this point in the conversation because he's just going to do that whenever I try to bring it up. I thought that we talked about the Mandela. We've mentioned it, but you've never watched. We've never watched it together. I was reading this book called It written by Stephen King. I know him really well. Have you heard of that? What I was, what I was meaning is like,

oh, well, I, I meant that to say like, I talk about it a lot, which is why I'm not even going to try to feel like that. Well, it's such a,

it's such a personal thing whenever you're just like that close with the guy. So it's like, June 3rd, Tucker returns. He says, I'm alive to which right after the Sun Vanish post a few screenshots of DM conversations with Tucker. So this is Sun Vanish talking to Tucker again.

Yeah, Sun Vanish is posting. his conversations. Sorry, I was gone so long. Power went out where I was, so I've relocated. Trying to slowly work my way towards the West Coast. My reception is a bit spotty. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. He's in Virginia. I think he's trying to work his way to the West coast is what he's saying. But he's like, I'm going to do like an 1800 mile. I guess. I mean, maybe, maybe we don't know details. Maybe like the East Coast got hit hard and he hears it's better West or something. Well, I'm wondering if he also reveals later if he's going to be like,

I've heard that the West Coast is clear. You know, because, Because in these movies, even like, I am legend and all these other things, where it's like a big thing happens. Oh, there's a safe zone. Exactly. It's like, oh, if you're alive, come here. Yeah, like that whole thing with The Walking Dead at the beginning, it's like France is the last holdout. Like everyone hears France being like. Oh, okay.

Yeah. So maybe something like that, but I sold the picture you took with the thing in the sky. If you can see one of those again, get as low as you can. And if you see the blue light, do not let it shine on you. So that's actually kind of interesting. Don't let it shine on you. Don't let it shine on you, but also, uh, Dayton

Danian Danian also said Get low So maybe he is Fine That's true He couldn't know Because why would the

Because if he was an imposter Why would he say no to the pictures then I don't know To me that doesn't make sense Like you just To me that felt stupid It felt like a way of being like Oh I just want to stir up the pot

And like I don't know if we can trust him I think there should have been a different way Because he was just so pressing before To where now it only makes sense So if he isn't if he is still fine, it feels weird that he'd be like, come on, we don't have time for this.

It's just like answer the fucking question. So then, Sunvanich says, I'm so glad to hear from you. Are you okay? Danian texts me saying to stay low too. Yeah, I'm doing okay considering what I've been through. Sun Vanich says, why should I not let the blue light shine on me? What happened that makes you say that? Well, when I got out, I saw someone running away.

When the blue light shined on them, they, uh, well, suffice to say it wasn't pretty. I think it's kind of funny that he actually typed. He actually typed, And they, suffice to say. Suffice to say it wasn't pretty. It's like, it's actually talking. They, uh,

dot, dot, dot, people do that thing. Yes. Oh my gosh. That drives me crazy. They're all the time like,

yeah, it's a specific kind of people on Twitter. All the time we're like, well, um, dot, dot, dot, you know.

sigh. I, sigh, you know, dot, dot, dot, like, no. What are you doing? You're putting sentence breaks in text.

Quit that. Quit that. so it wasn't pretty like explain to me I know he's doing that to build up tension but it's like

Tucker would tell him like oh he exploded or whatever or even saying even saying something like there's actually no way I can describe it they died

he's like he's became into a pulp yeah it's hard to even describe he got condensed into the size you can give a little bit while still

but yeah it wasn't pretty yeah okay what does that mean Tucker yeah I'm going on the West Coast thanks Tucker

that's really I stopped by a couple of grocery stores, got some red solar cups and cans, and we're making our way out there. They were almost out. Before I die, I want to hit the biggest wave. You surf too? Just turns like a weird bromance about surfing. We got to hit one.

Yeah, we have to go down to Hawaii, hit the Maluku Makamaka. What movie is that where it's like, we got to hit the wave or whatever. It's Keanu Reeves. Point break. Yeah, got to hit that wave. The last wave, yeah. Almost a chicken run, chicken little. that's

but it's because I was thinking of what's the fucking penguin movie where he serfs and there's like a chicken and Napoleon Dynamite voices the chicken right? That surfs up. That surfs up. I'm saying that I was thinking of the fucking chicken.

I want to surfs up is about penguins. I also want a fact check immediately on the Schrodinger's cat thing that there was no cheese. I want a fact check somehow. Can someone please look at in the end? I'm just saying I want justice on that.

Okay, but we're leaving this in regardless of what the solution is you finding it. That's fine. Chicken little and serves up. Kind of similar. There's one chicken little is on my mind because I think that's an alien invasion movie. The sky's falling. Yeah. And it turns out it's aliens. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah.

Okay. Yeah. My mind works in pretty interesting ways. So there's two days without any updates. And then Tucker says on June 5th, just passed the Virginia state line. Hoping my family will be okay. They said this family. His family

It's just like being sucked up to the sky. I hope you guys are right. I'm going to the West Coast. What? Bye. Also two days and he's just now getting past the Virginia line. How fucking long is it going to take you to get to the West Coast, dude? It depends.

He can't take any main roads because he said earlier traffic, like there's a bunch of a bandit cars on him and stuff like that. It also seems like there's no, the gas stations aren't working. Yeah. I hope he, I assume he's bringing a bunch of gas. Probably. Probably.

I'd say. Cups full of gas. Cups. The whole bag is full of cups. Just stacked on the opposite. each other. They're spelling everywhere every time it turns. Gas is getting low,

keeps falling out. If only someone made a container to hold gasoline. It was like a plastic container I can put this in. And preferably red like my cups. Hoping my family will be okay.

If I could have preference, I would make them red. I would make them red perhaps with a black or yellow nozzle of some kind so I can see it in low light conditions like right now. hoping my family will be okay they said they haven't seen anything out of the ordinary

okay well that goes back that goes back to the whole thing where some people for some reason are like it's localized to a few people for some reason so he's like contacting his family but everything's normal with them but for him but are we saying that the family's in virginia though i don't know okay i know yeah so june 6 sun vanish says the body's just gone didn't see what happened to it but it's not in the street anymore that same day Tucker says i took a chance and decided to drive through Indianapolis. That was a mistake, crawling with headlights. June 8th, the water from this house is dark now. Thankfully, I filled up my bottles with clean water, but I won't be able to stay here much longer after I run out. Two days later, the sun vanish shows screenshots

of text with Danion, where all that the sun vanish says, Danion, I'm sorry for what I did, please respond. He does not need to be sorry. And then the same day, 20 hours later, still no response. The next day, June 11th, Tucker says, been hiding out, waiting for the roads to be clear, slowly making progress. After that, there's three days. What's kind of, you know, we're reading this, but it is kind of interesting to have, uh, if it's just like days passing and that's the one tweet you get,

it's kind of fun. Yeah. Showing up when you're, you know, you're like open, open the app or you're looking at it, however, and you just see that one thing.

You're like, oh shit, okay, he's still going. Yeah. You know. Yeah, that's what was fun about because like, I remember as this was happening,

like being like, any tweets today? No. Any tweets today? No. And then it's like two days later. It's like, that's like,

that's the one tweet you get. It's like, yeah, right. Okay, cool. Because there's always also the fear with these that, like, the creator will lose interest. Sure. Post it at some point. Did that never happen? Uh, there were a couple of ARGs. I remember that, like, got started and then just like, just died off. They just didn't have any followers, not a lot of attention. The sun vanished, like, day one blew up. As that video of the news was like, the sun has gone out, went super viral.

Oh, okay. Everyone was all over it. So this one had a lot of traction. Um, what's funny is right after I said, oh, I'll do the sun vanish. You do Tucker. The next, Nate has a note here that says, Tucker disappears

for over a month. So great timing on me putting together. Frodinger's cheese, my friend. All right. So anyway, after this,

Tucker disappears for months, Sun Vanish says, thankfully, there's been no activity to take note of. I'm worried about Tucker, though. And then guys,

someone's at the window. Next day, June 15th, says, it's too dark to make out anything. I just hear a frantic knocking. It could be Daniel

or it couldn't be. I guess there's only one way to find out, and there's a video attack. The sun is back. Oh. That's pretty cool. The person on the outside was whispering the sun has vanished, right? No, they said the sun is back.

This is the sun is back Oh okay That's cool That's pretty fun Yeah I like too You couldn't tell what it was for a minute It took a second to come in I thought I heard something

And I was like looking over And I was like what the fuck I could I could have swear I heard Like just a little murmuring I like that that's fun The sun is back That's cool I like that So then he says

They're still there at the window I don't know what to do Person is still standing at the window But they aren't making noise anymore Oh God never mind They're banging on the window now With this video attached I think with their head

That's fun. That's fun. Are you laughing in something funny? Just the end bit. Just kind of funny. But the, I do think all this stuff is super effective whenever it's just simply in his

house. Yeah. You know, the whole invasion stuff is good. I was going to say, I was going to save this for later, but I almost feel like you would just save that for like later on. You can have a hint of it at the beginning, like in the distance you see lights and then it shows up. But like this stuff, the buildup is so nice. The people whispering and the glass

shattering and stuff like, that's fun, that's good. And then he has a final tweet from that day where he says they're in the house now, they're looking for me with a picture attached of bare feet from underneath the doorway. Probably fucking you know what's fucked up about this? I immersion broken, dude. Why?

Because I can tell with those gangly long-ass fucking toes that's definitely the sun vanished. Identical to his hands. Those look kind of

feminine. He looks like a slender boy. With his hands and stuff? Long, lanky-ass fucking hands. Hello? You really got freaked out by those hands.

Look at him. Have you seen him? And he's got the gray's he's got the gray's feet. I guarantee you the seven women in our audience are going to love.

his tutsies yeah no no it's tutzies his hands it was hands it was like hands that's the vainy hands they have the finger rings yeah you guys like that has that sound bite what the fuck is that soundbite that's popular with a lot of cringe videos it's like say it again i think i liked it say that again i liked it yeah yeah that deal with that deal like corpse husbandy kind of thing right yeah all those guys dream exactly like dream i i don't think dream looks like that dream is he's a people think he's cute, right? Yeah, I'm sure. And he's got the hands.

His thing wasn't... I don't think it was as explicit with like corpse, because corpse's whole thing was like, oh, most of this stuff has been on the far. Where'd he go? He did. He used to read Cream Fossies, right? Yeah, he did. He did back in the day. He read a bunch of these.

Maybe he could be a guest on a show. Well, he did music for a while and stuff like that, but I think he dipped from the internet after he got, like, a bunch of people kind of turned on him. I think his picture of his face got out. We're making fun of him and stuff, and then he dipped. But he dipped around the same time that was happening. Dude, corpse, you want to read a spooky story? Come on out, dude. Yeah.

What did you bring him on with his sexy voice? Yeah, I'd bring corpse on with a sexy voice, I think. Can you get, can you do a corpse impression? Uh, that was pretty good. That doesn't have the right time, I think. Yeah, that was the same register. Welcome to Creepcast. Yes.

Is that what, is that what he would say if he was on Creepcast? I feel like you've pressed. in the mirror. I'm corpse husband and this is creepcast I'm corpse husband but I just got possessed by I see you

this is corp this is corpse husband and I'm on creepcast now I feel like you've done the shirtless in your bathroom in the mirror why would you say that loud

for the seven women in the audience will remember that did you see them getting upset over that the seven women thing there are a bunch of girls like there's more than seven of us yeah I mean it's a it's a meme

and now there's the people have been saying there's the seven sister cult and that's sick seven sisters you got seven four of our girlies out there yes that was pretty

I felt I felt my soul gotta leave my body that was that was that was the reason you were that enthused because it was a point of meanness

to a point I brought up that was countered to me so I did not appreciate that. June 16th, he says, been hiding for 20 hours. It's such a long time to be hiding. I think they're gone. I need to check the house first. So he says, where should I check first? Another poll. Options are upstairs or downstairs. Upstairs wins 60%. So June 17th, he says, I'm heading upstairs. First pick, the person has definitely been up here. It is a picture of a bloody handprint across a wall. Okay.

100% sun vanished because of those fucking long ass fingers. Look at that. That looks like. Someone check his fucking DNA, dude. Because it is not going to be human. That is the biggest hand. If either one of those is the pinky, that's terrifying. This, this

right here is his thumb. There's no way. It's no, no. He's got a long ass thumb. No, it's this. He's doing this. It's the top four. It's the top four, right? So, if it's right or left hand, his thumbs off the wall to the side, right?

No way his thumbs that's gay. And also because there's only four fingers there. Unless he's missing a finger. I wouldn't throw anything, but I don't even think he has four fingers. I think that these, I think he took his three fucking alien hand and he kind of combined him and it got botched.

They're still there upstairs, just snap this before getting out of there. It's another picture. So they're still up here? I'm telling, look at that lanky motherfucker. That's got to be a woman, I think. This is 100% a guy. You think that's,

A lanky, tall man. I bet you this motherfucker's like 6-8. Hello? He might be slender man. Hello? If this, I'm not even joking. If this fucking goes into a slender man thing, I'm flipping the desk.

No, that is definitely a woman because we heard her whispering the son's back. That was a person outside, though. Yeah, that was a woman. No, but then they smash their head through the window. Now they're inside. Yeah. Okay, so you're saying that this is the woman that is the woman that's whispering the sun is back. I still believe that it's him.

Okay, whatever. I bet you he's like. Oh, it's the girl from outside, but it's just him taking a picture of himself. I mean, that could be true, but in the story, it's, it's the girl from outside. It's supposed to be the woman, yeah. So he says, staying low, staying safe. She seems to be in a trance. She was trying to track me down before, but now, even if I'm right in front of her, she doesn't react.

And we get another message, June 18. I don't think she's a threat anymore. I locked her in the room where she's standing. June 19th. Holy shit, I woke up to find the door busted open. First off, before I get and go into the picture or the video here, do you, Do you like, do you, how do you feel about the whole, like, holy shit, this just happened as a tweet, like him tweeting that versus it like as like an actual tweet? Does that feel weird that like in this moment, you're like, oh, you know what I mean?

And it just happened. Does that, I mean, I just thought of that and I was like, why the fuck is it? So I, I can suspend my disbelief because it is the medium of the story. Sure. Okay, that's fine. and if this was a scenario where they are still running the gambit that this could really be happening Gregory 88 did a decent job of that where he'd be like I'm going to do a thing and then eight hours later he'd be like this is what happened yeah he would describe it

that was more believable because it was more grounded at least initially before we got to the well I like the idea of it helps me at least even in Gregory 88 with the fucking eggs and all that shit at least it was something like I'm going to do this break he went and did it I'm I'm going to tell you about it, like you just said. But it feels weird that during the action, you'd be like, let me tweet this out. I will, I forgive it here because it is about giant aliens that are running spaceships and control lights. That's all fine. With, with, would choose your own adventure routes.

And that's all fine to me. I'm like, I'm almost disassociating this even as like tweets then. And it's almost like, it's almost like you're in the room with him. Yeah. Yeah. I don't think of it at tweet as tweets at a certain point. It's just a medium of the story. Yeah.

I don't know. is that our boy helping him out i think it might be they knew that he was there and that he didn't and they still under the bed it looked like yeah they definitely knew that he was there so i'm wondering reach and form heard a noise runs outside then he says after the carhorn i heard a gunshot the sun vanished post some screenshots of text with danion i found your twitter Is that you honking outside and the gunshot? Yep.

Then, so we have the same problem as we had before. Can I trust you? At your 11th birthday party, I gave you a Batman Lego set. Is that good enough? Grab your stuff. Let's go. How hard was that to just do that to first time?

Maybe there was, I don't know. It could have been something that read like animosity of like, what you think I'm one of them or something. I mean, that could have been the author's intention. It could have also have been maybe, uh the i don't know the entity or whatever controlled danian for a little bit and i don't know

but anyway he posts this video next so he is now in the car with danian like the shot of the guy is that a desert eagle my gosh He's got a massive. Oh, no, it's not. It's like a 19-11 or something. Also, like how he doesn't say anything. He's just in there with this gun in his lap.

And he was just filming it as he ran in. Way to go, asshole. Let's get out of here. So now the sun vanishes with Daniel, right? And this is actually when I quit keeping up with it. Because that happened and there's a two-week hiatus. And I don't think, I may have saw one or two things afterwards. But up until this point, I was keeping up with everything as it was posted.

So now you're going in blind now. Now I'm going in blind now. I don't know what happens after this. So two weeks later, July 7th, Sun Vanish Talks again and says, I'm finally back. There's so much that I have to catch you all up on, you won't believe what I've seen.

After the last video I tweeted, Dania and I drove a ways into the boonies to stay away from where all the activity is in town. He brought camping gear, so we stayed in a tent out of the woods for the last couple weeks. It wasn't long before we were out of range for many cell towers,

but I made sure to still document anything significant. On our way out of town, we noticed what appeared to be a star in the sky, but almost as soon as I pulled my phone Star disappeared then this is the video so one singular star who starts to be videoed fades out

then says the next day July 8th once we got far enough away where we couldn't see the city lights anymore we set up camp it was actually sort of peaceful for a bit and it gave Daniel and I plenty of time to catch up but unfortunately there was some rising conflict between us. Danion isn't a fan of me broadcasting my situation in the internet.

He thinks it's dangerous. My philosophy is that I have a chance to reach out to other people who might be in the same situation as I am. But suffice to say, he hasn't been in a hurry to get back to reception. At this point, we have been arguing for days on what to do next until our decision was made for us. A storm rolled in, and we saw this. that actually looked really good that was fun yeah for like what this is like you just little

twitter argy put together like the shape floating across the sky that's fun that's cool so with the activity getting closer to our campsite i finally convinced danian for us to pack up and drive toward the closest cell tower do i trust danian yes do i trust his judgment i'm not so sure july 12th we've been camping out next to the cell tower danian took the car and left a few hours ago to find more fuel to siphon while danian's gone i'm free to answer any questions you all have. Nate's note for us says the sun vanished has a short Q&A session, which is mostly not that important to the story, but gets one message from an account or character that will be important later. So this is the sun vanish saying, without knowing your situation, all I can say

is to stay low. If you are inside, stay away from windows and doors. Good luck to you to your survival. You show screenshots of messages from a character named Nat. Nat has been making cursory posts since August 30th, where they have been compiling a survivor guide by taking messages from others dealing with the sun vanishing. This will be cut for brevity's sake and they won't be brought up again until they begin interacting with our characters. Yeah, I mean, at the beginning of the story,

we said that the sun vanished, Tucker, and Nat were going to be the three most important. So this is the first introduction to Nat. So, Nat, yeah. So actually, Nat had been talking since August, but this is, or sorry, no, we're talking in July. The next month, Nat will make Survivor's guides

like, stay away, do this and stuff. For the sake of brevity, for whatever that matters on the show. we're not going to be going through all them but just know that's like Nat's biggest role there's so many of this too. This is a very consolidated thing

but they were like responding to tons of stuff like it just like as for the overarching story of us reading this now it's just we're just cutting it down. There were Q&As he would do where it would be I do remember some of this where like the sun vanish would answer like dozens of questions about like what's your name

is your family okay and it mostly be like I don't know maybe and it would be us reading that for like Yeah, I mean, there's just tons because it was so interactive, it's so easy to tweet out stuff. Exactly, yeah. So, again, it went on four years. So this is consolidated. But this is our first introduction to Nat, if you want to read what she said.

Yeah, it says, hey, hey, the sun vanished. I'm Nat. I've survived two months now, thanks to the info you've accumulated and shown us. I owe you. I want to make a guide for survival. Pick up where the news outlets left off. And I've been trying to collect anything I can from the other survivors out there and was wondering if you have any tips. Which is kind of a fun.

I like the introduction to this kind of character because it lets him at least build in this world of it's almost like you know many fucking zombie survival books there are yes yeah so it's like you get to kind of have that with this it's that element but it's for like an alien invasion yeah yeah yeah so july 13th i just woke up and danion is still gone and then he says no response in close to 12 hours and shows a screenshot of a text message he sent to danian that just says where are you july 14th i'm stuck here with no car no gun just a tent and the essentials july 15th i only have 38 hours of battery left if Danion doesn't come back with the car. It's been two days.

Yes. July 16th. Guys, we have a new problem. I can't see anything, but I can hear someone walking around my tent. And then, oh God, never mind. Now I can see with this video. Okay, I got to say I really like

the aliens being depicted as flashing lights that make clicking noises. Something about it's so mechanical. So simple. Yeah. It's nice. Also, too. We have got to put an epilepsy warning

at the beginning of this fucking episode. Also, also there, blue tent. Was that a white light or was that a blue light? That was a white light. So it was a white light. I'm pretty sure it was too. I couldn't tell because it's just illuminating it. I think it's a white light, especially because earlier like blue night or they, I don't know if they said they don't make noise. But that was the white light noise for sure. It's one that we've definitely heard. But I was wondering why would the white light be there if there's been, well, I thought that they were attracted to flashlights and stuff. So maybe he was like looking around with it. Yeah. Yeah. Maybe he's just fair. His light is on. That's true on his camera. Yeah. That's true. Then says this one is different from the others. It's just wondering aimlessly and flickering at random intervals. I'm fighting the urge. I'm fighting the urge.

to go check it out. I know it's too risky, but I only have five hours of battery left. Not a single sign of Daniel returning and not much else to lose. And then he does a poll to either stay in the tent or investigate. Oh, they said yes. Okay, so they voted leave. She said quickly snapped this pick and it's just a pretty ominous

picture of a guy standing and some tall grass. He says, I followed it into the crops to get a good look at it. Crops for about six to seven feet high, so that gives you a good idea of how much taller it was. Oh, so that was like huge. It's like 13 feet tall. I mean, it's at least, I mean, I would say, yeah, 13 feet. fucking huge. July 17th

next day he says less than two hours of battery left. I'm powering down my phone for now wish me luck. Then the sun vanish disappears for two and a half months. Pretty crazy. That's such a wild interval. But at the same time Tucker's story picks back up. So then Tucker

says, hey everyone sorry it's been so long. But if you ask no, I'm not really okay. The church of the West Coast was unsuccessful. I couldn't get through Indianapolis. I haven't heard from my family I haven't heard from my family says it twice

maybe that's a typo I don't know just caught up to the sun vanished situation wow sun vanished isn't safe I'm not safe nobody is safe you cannot trust anyone except yourself

save yourself I miss my family so is Tucker's family in Virginia or is he going to I think he's going to them in the West Coast I think that's what it is that's why he's trying to travel to the West

yeah yeah Tucker leaves as quickly as he came and goes dark for almost three months so now at the same time which also from Just to notice some of the times here, too, we're talking July 21st.

The post are becoming more, more sporadic. Because before it was daily, multiple times a day, now we're going, it was first, it was three days, two days, three days, four days. Now we're, that's 21st, and then the next post isn't until the 31st. So 10 days now, which I think is the longest span we've had between post. And after that, it says that on July 41st, it's the first time that Nat becomes important outside of world building. Nat says, pull, should I try to message Tucker and interview him?

And there's a yes or no poll with yes winning by a landslide. So on August 6, Nat posts their interview messages with Tucker. Basically, what it seems like here is that she's asking Tucker. It seems like Nat is asking Tucker questions and be like, is Tucker actually who he says he is and he's posting. Because here, Nat says, why do you repeat certain words slash phrases? Tucker says, excuse me. And then she says, you've been repeating certain words slash phases in your tweets and messages,

usually a sign of drinking contaminated water. so that's the part we say I haven't heard from my family haven't heard from my family I thought it was a typo but it's actually intentional and then you read over it a second because again we assumed it was a typo but when he says

that one thing where he was like I miss miss my family that's interesting it's a sign of drinking contaminated water Tucker says I'm fine it isn't that big of a problem

I'll read naps okay well what about your family what happened to them we are not talking about that if you mention that again I will block you I will block you. That's suspicious.

Okay. Have you seen what the strobes' headlights look like? Kind of. I've been able to make out a silhouette of one of them. What does it look like? It kind of had the shape of a person, but definitely didn't move like a person. Interesting.

Can you elaborate? What did it move like? I don't know. Not normal. If it has the shape of a person, did you see its head? I don't know. Did it chase after you?

How tall was it? I don't know. How did you get away? I don't fucking know. When you're in the moment, fight or flight? You weren't thinking about this shit. You don't notice details. You just have to stay alive.

I'm sorry, but we just want to know what's going on. Nat, have you ever been a situation like I have? Have you ever had a run like your life depends on it? Because if you had, you'd understand how difficult it is to recall things. We're in a situation like that. All you care about is one thing, survival. You're right. I haven't been through something like that.

Nat, how old are you? 14 14 14 Oh no All right 11 14 I'm telling you

Because the person Who's probably Making this is probably around the age Hello 100% Some like 14 year old gangly alien boy That explains a lot of like some of the The baseball bat the cups

Everything yes absolutely The running into the car And the guy like has one gun It's just a bunch of teenagers, probably high schoolers even. It's probably a guy, too, who it's like, he's 17, he's probably made this, he's 17, and he's like, oh, she's like a younger, she's like a little younger than I am. She's 14, whatever. And she's like, you know, a curious, whatever kid who's online, chronically online, blah, blah, blah, right?

Because to him, 14 isn't comedically young for someone who's trying to put together survival. Yeah, yeah. But, you know, like, when I was 14, I knew, blah, blah. That's how you describe like a novice when you're 17, a 14 year old who now is like a child that And Tucker, and Tucker's a fucking 38-year-old guy who's like, I'm from Virginia. It'd be funny, if it's like, I got back to my family across the country. How old are you, 16? I get it.

You're young and eager to obtain information because you have no idea what's really out there. But I promise you, if you experience things for yourself, you'd have a very different set of priorities. Where have you been staying this whole time? In your house? Yeah. Yeah. So come me some slack because you haven't been through what I have. it's interesting like

I can't tell if it's like the writing her part of the story that she's like oh well like why have you been repeating stuff and he's like girl you'll get it when you're my right exactly trust me go through a divorce and you'll be repeating a lot of stuff try try two lawsuits with one ex-wife see what happens listen

just give me some time I'll come to you when I jog my memory about what I've seen okay I look at the screen that dog That's the scariest thing I've seen so far. Little pepper. It made me a heart attack. And she just responds with okay.

Yep. And then Nat goes dark for two months. Yeah. So now we're not getting, our Nucks post isn't until September 30th, 2018, which is kind of interesting because I know that we've, I think we said this at the beginning,

but I mean, this thing only closed out. At least the last post that we have here are up until 2023. Yeah. So now we're seeing these time jumps to where this story has stayed committed for so long, even if the post.

or like, okay, well, you're not going to post for a month or however long. Yeah. Yeah, it's been a while. So the sun vanish returns September 30th and says, I'm back. It's been a long time, but I'm back. You don't have much time. Extremely low battery, but there's a car close by. I can see it. And then says, for what I can tell, the car door is open and dinging, meaning the keys are still in the ignition.

sends a picture, you can see like the car lights out of the distance. That's a cool pick. And he says, oh, God, it's warm here. There's a hot spot. But it's my one ticket to getting my phone charged and getting away from here. and then he posts this video. So it's him seeing the car out in the distance.

What is this kit? He's trying to charge. It's a charging kit for, I think, his phone. Yeah, I think so. It also looked like it had a light on one of them, but maybe that's the way you use it for life. Probably something he got off of, uh... That's pretty menacing to see that car just open.

Because it's been like months now, right? Oh. My boy just got fucking Oppenheimered for real. Yeah, you're running through. the ones that's like, oh, lay on the grass. He's like, well, I have cancer. Do you have to lay down? I can't tell if he's hiding or not.

He's laying down in the grass. But still, you're not supposed to be exposed to the light at all. Well, it says get down. Or just get low. Maybe it's, you're playing dead or something. Maybe that's why it works. So, yeah, fucking two full,

blast blue gamma race in the back can't be good for you he's walking around he heard something overhead and then the blue light shine down so I think the blue light definitely comes from the ships

is what looks like you're ready to meet God kid I love how what was the Slender Man videos we're watching again Marble Hornets. I love how marble hornets

coated it is. It's like the family vehicle. Like he's getting into like a Chevy Malibu or whatever. His mom's car. It's like, can I go park this in the road? I won't drive it. I'll just like,

I'll just move it a little bit. Boom, bomb. Hey, so I actually just got hit by three blast of radiation. Is that bad? Mom? Well,

I'd be okay, mom. He's like eyes like drooping down. Mom? I feel weird. Okay, so then on October. October 1st, so the next day, he says, I have to get to a colder location. I promise I'll explain everything. Then, all right, I'm not in a cold spot yet, but where I am, we'll do for now. The ships have certain identifiable flight patterns. Yeah, so in the time he's been gone, he's learned

some stuff. You can tell where they tread often by the temperature of the area, hot spots, where they don't go as often is much more safe, cold spots. After my, I powered off my phone to save the last little bit of battery juice, some followers of the Twitter account figured out where I was and came to rescue me. They brought me to their shelter and had food and clean water, so I decided to live with them for about two months.

Then, I think the flight patterns changed, and we got found out. And they didn't make it. That's why I've had to learn how to evade the ships on my own for the last few weeks or so. Okay, so that's interesting because it's like, he...

Maybe the reason that there was a car parked out here like there was like a group of people like a shelter or something maybe that's one of their cars who try to get away or something like that oh yeah yeah like there was an initial fallout where everyone's dead we didn't see the fall out but that's just like one of the fall that's one of the people who rescued him it's one of the survivors yeah yeah next day he says finally found a good cold spot there's something that i've been avoiding talking about when danian left he said he would come back but he never did he basically left me for dead out there in the woods i didn't really say anything here but i was so angry at him i couldn't believe i trusted him but when I turned my phone back on, I got a flood of text from him. He shows a picture of those texts. Hey, bud. You haven't answered any of my calls, so I don't really know if you're going to get this or not. I just wanted to say I'm sorry. The way I treated you,

even the few times where my mind was actually clear, wasn't fair to you. I shouldn't have left you here. I was scary and I was confused. I didn't know what else to do. Because of what I know, I got in trouble with some people. They're threatened to kill me if I don't tell them what they want to know. Do you remember when we used to be close before moving away

and starting our own lives? We were happy. I know it's something everyone says, those were simpler times, but they really were, lull. There were so much stuff I never did and never said, but it's too late now. I had my chances to fess up again, and I'm so sorry. If I'm not a goner by the time you read this, blank attitude, blank longitude. I wish I was a better friend to you. Now, is this a suicide note, or is he, like, infected, you think? I think he's, well, he said the few times my mind was clear.

I think maybe what happened, the reason he wasn't answering those message earlier and stuff like that is because he maybe did fully succumb to the red light but I think he looked at it for a bit and I think he got messed up. It did something to him. Yeah. Which explains why I didn't answer the messages in the first place. And then the Sun Vanish says, I wish I had responded to Daniel earlier and then some

messages that he sent to Dania and said, hey, listen to me, you are aren't a goner. You are not a goner. I'm going to come find you, okay? Please tell me if you're reading these to no response. I'm going to assume Daniel that's probably dead. He's dead. I think he's certainly. I mean, he's been gone for two months. Like, good luck. He then says his coordinates

are really, really far away, but his coordinates were like up in the sky. But I have to find him, even though I'm still upset at him for what he did. I can't leave him on whatever the hell situation he's gotten himself into. I can't move on with that on my conscience. You mean, you'd have to assume they're just gone.

I mean, he's dead. Right. At what point is it just being stupid, you know? When you turn your phone on and those messages are from a month ago. And you're like, I got to find him. Yeah, from two months ago. Both ago, this is where he was, two months ago. Yeah. Good luck.

I bet he's still there. I bet he hasn't left and nothing's found him there for sure. That didn't read like a creepy suicide note at all. Absolutely not. He's probably fine. Two months, he's clear. He's been clear. I bet that guy, A.

He's like, I got into cold plunging. I've never been so mentally clear before my life. I found this new crypto. You really need to get in on it. You got to get in on it. It's called Blue Coin. Blue Coin. October 4th, there's something else that I haven't told you all.

I neglected you to mention it because I had no idea what I saw or heard, but now I have actual proof and he shows a video military jet military jet or those ships can truck if they want to but it does sound like the audio is definitely that of a military jet but it's

yeah something flying overhead he says about a month ago I saw one of the ships flying nearby and after a loud noise it suddenly exploded and then came crashing down I bet you're right it is militaries like shooting them down or something again war of the worlds like you know people fighting back honestly at the

time I thought I was hallucinating or something but I'm fairly certain I wasn't. That's definitely not one of the ships. That's a jet. Yeah, you're right. Two days later, Nat returns. Nat says, happy birthday to me and post a screenshot of Tucker finally responding to them. Hey, kid, glad to see you online again.

I'm sorry for popping off like I did. I let my emotions get the best of me. You're doing a good thing here with your Twitter. Don't be afraid to keep broadcasting people's firsthand accounts and experiences. So Tucker's also gone. That or he's a belligerent alcoholic. In this situation, I think being an alcoholic is perfectly acceptable.

That would be fine. In this world where... I mean, what else? What else do you fucking have, dude? You're by yourself, you're talking to a 14-year-old on Twitter. Hey, kid. The only person putting together information to help people. Maybe in a different lifetime, kid.

Maybe in a different lifetime. Tucker, what do you mean by that, Tucker? Nothing. Nothing. Nothing. What'd you say you were at again? Where are you at? Hello?

I don't think... Talk to me! I don't think I should answer that question, Tucker. On October 8th, the Sun Vanish says, Ben slowly but surely making my way towards the coordinates. Bro. Hunter, I mean this with love. I would not come to anything you say.

I would never... I'm going to tell you this right now. I would fucking never... If I ever write a suicide note, I'm not going to tell you where it's going to be or anything. I'm just going to say... I'm probably just going to say, bye.

I wouldn't give that to anybody, though, would I? Would you? A suicide note? Yeah, if you're like, this is where my body is. Are we talking about it? If you're up in real life for this specific scenario. If you're up in anything, if you're like, I'm going to do it in the forest, would you be like, here's my longitude latitude?

I think, I think it changes. I don't, that may have been a suicide note that may have also been like last known location. I don't know. But I think it changes dramatically. It read pretty heavily like he was. If that's what it is, then I don't think he would say anything. If that was a cry for help, I think he would have been like, or like this is the last place I'm at if I'm still alive.

Does it also not read like a trap? Yes. If that's the case, here's my longitude. Well, my theory is that he's half succumbing to the red light. Anytime someone gives me fucking directions that are, I've had it happen a couple times. Donut. He does that all the time.

And I was just like, my father, give me a street name. He does that all the time. You know what I mean? I'm like, oh, I get it. It's like, where you live? It's like, okay. So I'm now going to punch this in, find the address that's three feet away. Exactly.

And I'm always happy to see him at the same time. Like, if I get another fucking latitude, longitude address again, I'm going to be up a river. I have buddies to do that too. They'll give me pins. They'll drop a pin for a place. It's like, oh, Angie's barbecue. Yeah. Better drop that pin.

Whoa. Hey, I'm here. Oh, I'll meet you there at 1,500 hours. Whoa. It's like I'm in an alternate universe. Whoa. I'm going to do Stolen Valor. When did the general get here? I, I, Captain.

Who, right? Every time I get a text like that now, I'm just going to say, Who, Ra? Just send the salute emoji over and over. Yeah, I really, I think I would have to question a friendship if they gave me like lotitude, longitude to a fucking Red Robin or something. Yeah, I've had people

do that. It's ridiculous. It's ridiculous. I get it. I get it. Well, you're very cool. yeah. So the sun vanished then says on October 8th. I get paranoid when I'm outside of a cold spot for too long. And he said, it's weird. The closer I get to Daniel's last location, it keeps getting hotter. I'm, I'm on fire.

That's odd. I'm sweating profusely. Whoever owned this car previously, they had an adult side sleeping bag and a child slice sleeping bag in the back with a picture attached. That is great world building. I like more of that. Like you come across the baby guards with like an adult and a child's

I like how haunting it is to be like a a family, like a parent and a kid died. Yeah. Yeah. That's pretty creepy. Yeah. They got sucked up or they succumbed to the red light or whatever. Yeah. Didn't get low enough. Exactly. Yeah. Didn't get near the ground. And also like just the hauntiness of like the car door was

open, right? But it was recent. The battery was still ruined. It was digging. Yeah. Pretty creepy. And there was a blue light right of head. Yeah, that's creepy. That's great. Damn. That's, that's an awesome element. I really like to be screwed up. It's like the moment he drove away. Like Yeah, exactly.

Wait, we're taking a piss. Do we do now, Daddy? No, no. I'm going to give you a latitude and longitude. I'm going to, hey, I'm going to go take a nap in the forest forever. That's so dark. Walk that way, honey. You like send the kid towards the ship.

Yeah. Don't walk that way. Close your eyes, walk, and count to 7,000. one two he just he's he's holding

come come and get me come and get me we're here we're here we're here If we don't have the Chevy Malibu, we have nothing. Give up, kid.

That was our last hope. It really hit me just how many people have been impacted by all this. How many friends? How many families? I wish I could do more to help. Just now. It took you this long. So then after this, the sun vanish disappears for two weeks.

Tucker returns a week after his last message. And that makes an important post two days later. So two days later, Nat has a. post, which is a screenshot of a message received from a user who believes they know where the sun banish is hiding. It's weird, too, how Nat is able to get all this information.

She's 14. Yeah, I'm 14. So, someone tells Nat, hey, Nat, I think I know where the sun vanish might be. Last several weeks, there have been a lot of fighter jets flying around where I've been staying. Turns out there's an Air Force base not but 10 miles from me.

Do you think the sun vanish is near an Air Force base? Well, that's kind of vague, but... Well, I was to say, because surely there's a lot of the Air Force bases. There's several, yeah. But if you're a 16 or 17-year-old writing this, you're just like, there's probably one. The Air Force got him, guys. He's safe. He's safe. And then after that, we get a post from Tucker on October 14th that says,

I'm much more stable now, if that wasn't already obvious by these tweets, but that shit had happened. I keep her playing the events in my mind over and over and over and over. The images won't go away. parents of my sister. A ship was there. A blue flash just completely mutilated them. If I had done things differently. If I had done things

differently, really makes the guy who's like waving his kid a lot by here. They just instantly vaporized. It is like, it's like the war of the worlds. Yeah. Maybe not as quick. I wish it was that quick. Man, they're just like, yeah, just fucking turn

into a pile of goo or something like that. Yeah, just melting. It's like, it like it burns them. So like the blue light scans and if you play dead it doesn't like kill you intensify or whatever. Yeah that's still kind of ambiguous. I think that that's kind of I think you're safe to assume that. Yeah. The wide and red

lights are like the ground units. Yeah. And then the blue light, it really is war of the world. So you got like the big tripods and then the little ones going around you. If I never stormed off after that screaming match and moved away if I hadn't been selfish, it'd still be alive right now. Okay. So this older guy who's like, listen, kid.

You got to be on the road. Like I have is like 21 years old. We don't know. It could be. Because his family he's trying to get to is his parents. He's an old man. And his sister, yeah. I'm 22.

Yeah, listen, kid, when you're... And then those fucking things came after me. Strobes, headlights, whatever you want to call them. I do not to look at their red lights so I shut my eyes as tight as I could. They didn't like that. So one grabbed me by the throat and repeatedly slam my head into the wall. I got out of there within an inch of my life. And then the thing, I'll never forget.

When I glanced back while I was running away was seeing it look towards me. there was a large cylinder protruding from its head and I swear to God its arm and legs grew right in front of my eyes so it's like extending how did he get away from it well just seemed like he just didn't look and then it got infuriated was throwing him around him into the wall

yeah I'm wondering why didn't chase him down though or something had a little has a little lasers cuts off your eyelids yeah oh oh oh you have to look so on October 20th the sun vanish says just read Tucker's updates oh my god been staying in another cold spot

this one clearly hasn't been traveled in a long time the trees are dying here that's an interesting now i guess yeah because there's no sun but it's like when they when there's a hot spot there's like an artificial life artificial sun uh he then says used to have these kind of evergreens in my backyard when i was a kid it's disturbing to see them dying now shows a picture of that and then on october 26 so six days later he says just drove past a junkyard full of card something odd i noticed all of the mirrors were gone that's interesting are people salvaging the mirrors. That or the aliens are breaking them. That too. Hmm. Interesting.

Or taking them or doing it. I don't know. Yeah. Could be user for some. That would be a cool defense mechanism if like they're all about lights and like seeing stuff. If you could just reflect yourself, you could get away from it. So the Nat post a photo of a strange message they receive, which the sun vanish retweets. I'm a Russian soldier camping out of an old military base and recently killed a what we call them. Burska, Mbeta, Tupatushka. Thank you.

demon lights. We shot a ship out of the sky in an old World War II anti-air what? It had an old or whatever in an anti-air cannon and it attacked our camp. We killed it with a T-14

Armada, an armored tank. We quickly learned contact with the body equals death. So hold on. When one of the thing, when one of the light things touch you, you die? I don't know. I think it says like physically, but I'm not sure. Okay. More are coming. Some are bigger than

and a mother's ship is right above our base and it will crush us if we shoot it. Please acknowledge this for it might be our last stance. So some of the English is weird because it's Russian a little bit, right? Yeah. So they call them Demon Lights, which is a fine name. That works. I'll take it, Demon Lights. The November 29th, 2018, I had a dream about Danion, but it was more like a memory, I guess.

When we were little, we would climb into this giant dead tree in our neighborhood. The branches could barely support our weight, so we would. would kick and push each other's branches until one eventually would snap. I can't help it feel like, like I'm already too late. Haven't heard a word from him. The repetition right there. Yep. Something feels really off, but I can't put into words why.

Wait, what the hell do you all mean? I've been gone for a month. It's only been a week or so. Oh, interesting. Yeah, that guy's gone. He's fucked. So November 30th, he says, I don't remember how I got here. And he shows a picture.

Picture is of, so just dead grass. That or is it upon a river? He says, I'm racking my brain to try to think, think of what happened. I wish I tweeted more so I could remember. But you guys are right. It's been a month. December 1st. I feel like that's what I've been doing.

Napping. I have so little energy, but I should definitely check my camera roll. These were taken four years ago. For some reason, some reason they were in an album called Remember. Four years ago. Okay, the things to remember, Roadway, a deer. and a wall. So that's probably priming something

that'll show up later, but they were in his camera from four years ago. That's interesting. Sun Vash then says, I know I sound crazy, but it feels okay to stay here. I think here is safe.

Next to the water. Next to the waters. Yeah, he's 100% gone to the water. He's contaminated by the water. But you can, because as proven from earlier, when he goes to the different house

and drinks the other water, you can get over the water stuff. Yeah, he just needs to get the fuck out of that. Yeah. Yeah. Tucker says, at the Sun Vanish, you need to leave now. You are not safe.

This is exact what the water's designed for. they're going to come for you. Sun Vanish, then quote, retweets that and says, something is keeping me here. I try to leave, but I just come right back, back. I don't know what to do. Next day, December 2nd, the sun vanish post a cryptic photo. This picture, what are we looking at?

Looks like he's seeing the sun. Oh, you see? He's back. You post that and then says, I can't believe I'm alive. I'm alive. It took everything out of me. I kept forgetting why I needed to leave, but you all helped me. Thank you.

Thank you. I understand now what people mean when I hear about close and encounters with these things. It isn't just a light. It looks into you. And then the sun vanish post a screenshot of a conversation with Tucker. You all right? Yeah, yeah, just a bit scraped up.

I meant mentally, not physically. Oh, I don't know. I feel different, I guess. I swear in my life that I didn't look into the light. It's just that I've never been this close to one before. Yeah, I think I understand what you mean. But what did you mean by this is exactly what the water was designed for in your tweet? For what I've heard, that seems to be the purpose of whatever is in the water.

It leaves you psychologically vulnerable and easily influenced by circumstances. The question is where it came from and why? December 4th, the sun vanish says, why do they want us alive? The blue light from the ship seems to be an exception. But I've had plenty of narrow escapes from the water, the headlights and the ships. And I can't be the only one. I mean, I'm crafty, but not that crafty. What the hell do they want with us?

Nat then post an interesting message they receive from a chemical battalion member. Okay, so this... First off, love that profile picture. Profile picture is so fun. it's so funny to imagine these people messaging a 14 year old girl like here's a she's the expert dude me with the military messaging this child you can tell them in the military because my profile picture i am in the military this is clearly military picture it'd be funny if like the russian guy earlier his profile picture is like it's a hammer and sickle yeah it's just stalling yeah hey nat i'm a part of the 92nd chemical battalion or at least i was i was on leave when this mess went down me and some of my buddies made our way back to Fort Gillum to reconnect with my unit. That was a mistake. There wasn't really much left here,

and we saw a whole mess of strobe lights, just like wondering about looking for survivors. We took off, and it's been months now, from what I can tell, at least. Supplies are a bit low, but we've rationed what we could. Advice, do not drink the water, even if it has been boiled. My close friend, Private Logan,

boiled the water and drank it. We had to leave him. Started acting weird. It hurts me to say that. I don't know how long I have left before my next scavenging run. apparently people have been hearing chats hopefully this in soon stay safe it says nap post a couple this is again a note from nate nap post a couple more screenshots of messages they received but nothing too important besides this they do not make another important post until the new year some vantage

for the next few weeks does a q and a that doesn't have much importance to the story then on december 29th sun vanish says i have some news on my progress i'm on a highway the quickest route to get to danian's coordinates he's still going for dude. It's been months. He started his journey in October. Just trying to find him. I'm on a highway the quickest route.

Only problem is that the highway takes me through a city and he shows a picture. Oh, there's streetlights? Well, I guess he said the power's in and out. In and out. It's just always nighttime.

He says, it's risky, but if I take the chance going through the city, it will take much less time than trying to go around. What do you guys think? And then he does a poll between going through the city or not,

going through the city wins. Now, December 31st, he says city it is i'll start driving again soon wish me luck and then go stark for over two weeks and that was the last post of the year that's the last post of 2018 yes all right we had to move back to our state with the recording was too long it was too long of recordings back to back so here we are it was taking a biblical amount of time yes january 11th so after the sun vanished went dark for two weeks uh nat then post a screenshot of someone sending them a photo of the sun seemingly being back The quote says, so many people pretending with this shit.

Why? You aren't fooling anyone. The person is either purposely misleading or has flat out lost it thanks to the blackwater or red light or a combination of the two. And then Tucker said, sorry, I haven't tweeted in a while, everyone. I might see him on edge, but honestly, I'm doing better than, I'm doing better since October. Thank you for your love and support.

So then after that, uh, January 19th, a little over a week later, uh, the sun vanish posts a picture, uh, with message. I was really nervous driving into the, city limits but I'm here and the only picture we see is of what appears to be a pedestrian walk sign that's been hit knocked over after that January 20th sun vanish says I'm being extremely careful driving slow with all the lights off to avoid unwanted attention no signs of life yet which puts me really on edge please help I can't stay there's something inside my mom got out I had her locked away because she wasn't herself anymore and now she is out after that Tucker quote

retweets Nat's previous post and says what the hell did I just wake up to Nat says, I can't do this again. Then after that, Tucker says, I've been frantically messaging Nat all day. No response. No tweet since late last night. I'm really worried. Look, I just got to get back in the groove.

Got to remember the sun's gone. It's not good. People are really upset about it. Black water, red lights, blue lights. Black water, red lights. Stuff happening. Yes. Yeah, a lot of people being really confused and scared.

It seems that something bad's happened to Nat. Or at least that's what's implying because Tucker says I've been trying to get a hold of her and I can't um anyway the next day to january 21st Tucker says i don't know what to do about this should i message again i didn't even stop to really think about what condition nat has been in at this time not until now at the same time the sun vanished uh has a message where he says side note i noticed a new photo in that album i don't recall taking this the picture is of what appears to be a car out front of his house so this is the original walkway from his house that the series started at where he saw the guy standing on the walkway

Um, but there's a picture of a car out front, but he doesn't remember taking that picture. Yeah, it's weird to the photo album says, remember. Yeah. It seems like in these states and whatever states, he just like takes, he knows that he needs to take a photo and put it into these folders, uh, which maybe, maybe it's like when, when he knows these under some kind of hypnosis for the lights or, yeah, some kind of thing. Yeah. So January 26th, Tucker says, he, uh, post some screenshots of a bleak conversation with, Nat. I'm here, Tucker. I'm alive. I got out. Are you okay, kid? Are you hurt? What happened? I forgot. I forgot about this whole dynamic

where Nat's 14 and Tucker's like 21. Yeah. So he's like a grizzled. Tucker's an 89 year old man. Yeah. I'm bleeding a lot. I'm going to broke out of the basement where I locked her. I couldn't hurt her even though I should have. I couldn't do that to my parents again. So I left for the first time in a long time I left. I was forget. Yeah. She's like a fetus. Yeah. She's literally 14, right? Yeah. Probably the same age of people maybe a year or two younger than the person writing this actual post yeah so the and the average age of our viewers yeah of course yeah of course nat i'm so sorry i'm so sorry then after that continues in another screenshot it hurts a lot i don't know where i am now but it's cold and dark and i'm alone do you have any means of getting into another building a neighbor's house anything

no i tried all doors are locked i tried breaking window but it's way tougher than it looks looks. His deal is just funny. I tried breaking a window, but it's way tougher than it looks

like they walked up just psh, ow. That didn't shatter as easily as I thought it would. I thought my giant

hulkish 14-year-old hands would have completely busted the shit wide open. How wrong I was. so after that Tucker has a couple tweets where he says

I can't believe this but I'm going I'm tired of feeling useless I'm going to find that I just don't know if that's even is it worth it in an apocalyptic situation is it worth going to save a 14 year old girl this is the guy this is the same series where the sun vanished is like I have his last coordinates before he got sucked up by the mothership

I'm gonna go get him yeah it's definitely not worth it okay so then a few days later on The 29th, Sun Vanish says, as I expected, the low fuel warning just dinged. Got my flashlight, bat, phone. I'm on foot now. I forgot his only means of defense was a bat. Yeah, was the photo of the bat.

A good shortling moment for me. That was great. And the Cups. That was his defense mechanism. The Cups. Which, again, a 15-year-old further back. If you're watching this episode right now on YouTube, I want you to take time, go get some cups,

up against your door because that is the only way to watch this episode is to have cups stacked up against the door and then also you have to um you have to do it at night and pretend like the sun's not coming back exactly just like that now yeah take a picture at midnight and say it's 3 p.m. get a friend uh find their last known coordinates try to go there you just you've just some of the midnight man you've just let the midnight man into your home then Tucker tweets that same day and says I'm traveling the light that isn't too far away compared to my last trip

about 500 miles or so god damn people are just so 500 miles not too bad they're doing this across the entire country 500 miles she's not that far away she's not too far I only have to drive through five hot zones

where the giant pyramids from Evangelion I've gotten radiation flash seven times but I'm okay. I'm going to load the ground. Yeah, the radiation can't find you down there. A couple weeks later, on February 15th, we get the next update where Tucker says. All right.

I'm at the address, Nat, sent me. Looked around and can't find anything. No response from Nat on Twitter either. What should I do? I'm going to take your advice. Going to get into the house and have a look around. The house was way more kept up on the outside. Looks like it's a bit a shithole for a long time.

Jesus. That's kind of rough looking. No way this much grime and. dust have accumulated in just 10 months. I mean, maybe, right? I mean, yeah, if someone was living there. Someone has to have been in there. Well, I'm guessing. I'm wondering if this is where,

could this be where she locked up her mom? Could be. Didn't she say she was in the basement? Possibly. I guess this does look like a kitchen. Oh, there's like a kitchen count. Yeah. This is like a living room kitchen.

You see the cat in the middle of the picture? Yeah, with the eyes. Hello. That's a cool cat. Hi. That's her mom. That's that's mom. She became a cat.

I gave birth to a human. That's what the alienians do. They turn people into cats. Meow. Five days later, February 20th, Tucker says. I'm trying to think of any possible reason as to why that is MIA. Well, she sent you plenty of messages being like, I'm bleeding. It's pretty good.

Help, please. It's freezing outside, so no ships and very low chance of drones. It could be dark water, but after checking GPS, there's no bodies of water within a 10-mile radius. I guess I don't have much choice do I? Ooh, going down to the basement baby. Yep, yeah, there it is. Okay, so yeah, this is where she was at and her mom's down in the basement. All right, here we go.

This is, this is a quote followed by Vid. It says when I press it against the wall leading to the basement, I hear this. Ooh, here we go. Give me some spooky shit here. so for people it's just a little like a woman trembling yeah you just hear a woman trembling is like the phones pressed up against the door you know for like for this being a series of tweets we're reading every now and then it

kind of gets a little monotonous but those videos they pick it back up they're uh yeah i mean it was the same thing like gregory 88 too the pictures just go a long way next tweet he said says, I'm in the basement. And then now, he says, I found Nat and her mom. Ooh, and the picture is a pool of blood. It's like a Myspace era pool of blood. Who? Got a photo on the floor. That's okay, I think. She's alive. I'm trying my best to comfort her. Maybe Nat had to kill her mom. Oh, I bet that's why I bet she had to kill her mom and the whimpering was Nat.

She's just crying in the basement instead of the mom. Yeah. Yeah. If you had to kill me, Hunter, would you be crying in the basement afterwards? what'd you do uh i'd be i got possessed by like the sun or whatever no you didn't you didn't let me finish what i was gonna say okay what if what if like what if you just like uh you murdered me and i didn't do anything would you be sad i'd be a little sad i'd be like why the hell did i do that what's wrong with me i'd always that guy's stuff that's good yeah yeah as long as there's just some level of remorse i think what happened do that kind of thing my voice is my i still I was still kind of sick, so I got this stuffy voice, but

so that's why I like when I do that voice. It sounds like a wheezing, like a vacuum. Why did I do that? Does this sound good? Does that sound like an artist crying? Can you cry? Yeah, I think so. Uh, no.

I have to like build up to it. Uh, I think if I think about really sad stuff and like try to gain myself, it could happen, but it would take a bit. I'll think I can do it just. What would be the sad thing you think about? I don't know. Probably like someone dying. Maybe you dying.

That'd make me sad. I'd be sad if you died. Boy, would you're sad thing be. Probably like the end of like barley and me. It's pretty sad. Maybe the end of C biscuit. Pretty much just the end of any animal movie.

I probably think about it. And I'd probably get teary. Oh, damn. The horse's heart's too big. that is a secretary and i forgot that's that because like in real life secretary had like a massive heart it was like misgrown it's what let him have so much like uh energy on the track or whatever uh but in the movie they frame it is like he just cared too much about race yeah they're trying to do like a little whoville grinch thing his hall yeah three three sizes too big for day yeah

Next day, February 21st, Sun Vanish says, oh, God, I just got back to where I part. There are four people standing in front of my car, but their backs facing towards me. I won't be, it is funny to imagine, like, he's just tweeting. This is happening. Like, he gets to the car. He's like, oh, no. That's just a silly thing about Twitter a. I guess that they, but that, yeah, sorry, go ahead.

Yeah, yeah, like they do it later. They talk about everything after the fact, but it's also, you know, it's a choose your own adventure, ARG, whatever, but it's just a funny visual, him in the car like, I don't know what to do. It feels very British to me for some reason. Or don't know what to do. Like in my mind, the idea of someone like tweeting in a life or death scenario sounds like something someone from the UK would do.

Oh, fuck. Oh, this bloke's fucking chasing me. I don't know what to do. Could he even help me? Because in the UK, it's like if you defend yourself, it's like a life sentence. but if you murder someone, you're just like given probation for murdering for five months

or something like that. It's a bit of a tailie-wheeler. Yeah, exactly. I guess that's why they'd be like, well, I don't want to go to jail forever, so I guess I'll tweet. That's the one thing I can do.

I won't be able to outrun them. I have to get to the car, and that's the only way I can escape, doing my best to quietly approach, fill up the tank, and get in the car. And then, this is such a,

He says, I'll do my best to quietly approach, fill up the tank, and leave. And then the next tweet reads, they broke my arm. This hurts so much. Holy shit. Then we get a video of him next to the car. It's like a PT cruiser. I wonder he's skin attacked. So he's in the parking lot of like a TG, like, a, like,

a TG Max, whatever. It looks like he's on like the road, I think. They're, they are so close to the car. He's in a T.J. Max parking lot. They are right there. Look how close they are. He thought he could quietly fill up a gas tank there. What kind of pain?

Getting your, getting your, this is what it sounds like, by the way, to get your arm snapped. Oh. Uh, uh, he filled up the gas tank. As he's opening door, one runs up, snaps his arm with their bare hands. He then manages somehow to get in the car, shut the door, and then they can't get into the car. You can just hear him hitting on it. I really like the fall of noise. Snap in your arm is crazy.

Don't do that. I don't like that. I do it like that. I do it like that scene of him being in a parking lot. And then there's like people standing next to the car and like hoodies. This is very like, I don't know. There's got a there's a spirit to it I like this guy just started writing a horror thing on Twitter. And And he's like, hey, guys, I need you to come out to T.J. Max tonight. Yeah. I need to film this scene for it. It's fun. It feels very much like Marble Hornets for sure. Yeah. Yeah. Like me and the boys are going to, we're going to do this for. We're going to do the T.J. Max. We're going to go the T.J. Max parking lot. We're going to fake break my arm. We're going to hold a piece of celery next to the mic. And I'm going to go whenever you get close. All right. After that, Sun Vanish continues. It says, how the hell do I treat this?

The last time I broke a bone was before I can remember. thank you for all your help and support I've made a splint and I'm trying my best to rest now I drove to the outskirts of the city but I need more time to heal up I feel so tired and I'm still in pain I need as much strength as possible for continuing towards Danion

also I caught up on the Tucker and Nat situation I'm so glad they're together now I'm so fucking tired about hearing Danion did yeah he's still I forgot he's still going to he's going to his coordinates before he got like pulled into space Daniel's dead

Danion is gone If he's alive, I'm going to be fucking pissed. His body, he better never, he better never find that motherfucker. That's all I got to say. He better be like a pure A on the mountain side. I don't give a fuck. He needs to be gone.

A few days later, February 26th, Tucker says, we're on the road now. She doesn't want to talk about it, but I helped bury her parents before we left. Hope it provided me with some closure for her. About a 14-year-old girl was able to kill both her parents. I don't want to be insensitive, but her dad's body was decomposed.

I wonder how long he's been there. And then that says, I'm with Tucker now. Feeling better and on the road heading back to Virginia where Tucker's bunker is. The way he describes it seems to the safest place to be. I mean, listen, I get it. But at the same time, she's just so creepy. All right. I'm with the 48-year-old industrial oil.

Didn't we find out that he's actually like 23 or something? Did we make that up? I can't remember if that was part of the story where we made that up. But I don't know. Still, just I'd be like, all right, well, I guess we got to go back to Virginia to my bunker. It's the only place we can go, sweetheart. I mean, I mean, he's right. If you have a bunker, that would be the place to go. However, you're also correct.

I got the it. I got the ick. I got the ick. Nearly a month later, March 17th, the sun bandage says, I'm so close to the coordinates now. He's so following the corner. God. It's been a long time since I've really thought about it. For the past few months, it's been a mindless mission. But I don't know if I should put myself in an emotionally vulnerable mindset again. happens, happens. So his arm still shattered. Right. I mean, it's been a month, so it's never did anything to, never did anything to probably set it or anything. So he just has this like gangly fucked arm now. He's like, Danion! Danin! Where are you? Can you hear me? Okay, so. So the next day, Nat post a screenshot of a DM she received that says this. People have been disappearing and i don't know what mean for the blue and red lights i was in contact with the

military protected civilian camp over a two-way radio after talking to them for a few weeks i knew the military was being pretty damn effective at fending off the headlights using a method the colonel wanted to keep quiet for some reason they go radio silent a day or two before i get there with i russia camp half the military was gone the rest of the squadron was the rest of the squadron that was there said that the other half was hand selected by the higher-ups to be taken elsewhere But they've never been heard from again. There's another force at work here. I also forget that the 14-year-old girl is talking to the military.

The colonel. But it's also all written. The colonel's not messaging me anymore. Yeah. Yeah. Like, well, this is a DM that Nat got. So this person in contact with the colonel is messaging Matt. Right, right, right.

But all of the messages that Nat gets are like, I forgot Nat was doing this survival book. So, like, people are messaging them. But all of the information is, like, whatever the author's understanding of the military is, because it's like, the rest of the squadron was taken away. It's like, okay. Anyway, April 1st, so nearly half a month later, Nat post another screenshot. I've been monitoring the Twitter chatter for a while, and I can't remain silent for any longer.

Because of the nature of my work and the inside I had, both I and my wife had scrubbed social media from our lives a couple years ago. I'm former Air Force communications and intelligence. But that's a few. Just messaging a 14-year-old girl is so funny. You're the only line of resistance we have. But that's a few years removed now. I still know a thing or two.

And what I learned the service did make me a bit of a prepper. Being an early riser in Arizona, I caught what started happening on BBC World News as the veil came down. My wife and I grabbed our bug out bags. Because the event wasn't nuclear, we headed toward a specific area for refuge. Remained radio silent ever since. It's only my wife, my two-year-old daughter and myself at a bunker, made for far more.

I can only think that maybe the others with the same plan either stay to keep an eye on the news or try to rescue loved ones. But they weren't ex-military. The siren sounds and you jump. For us, it was the sun never rose that day. We've held up here pretty well, but the lack of radio communications was disheartening. There seemed to be a few ham radio people that managed to hold on maybe an hour of transmission, but then it quickly went silent. The security cam has told us what we needed to know about the threat. The ships, the strobe light drones.

I jokingly called disco clickers to make my wife laugh a little. The only time we poked our head out of this bunker was when we thought that we saw other people. We have two stage airlock with blast doors that wait a time. What the fuck are you talking about? They're inside of like the ISS. They're inside a fucking missile silo. We have two stage airlock with blast doors that weigh tons. so I knew it was my dumbass

so if I knew my dumb ass I killed my wife and my baby would be safe before I even reached the surface I heard gunfire the people we saw on camera weren't people anymore dealt their fate the group that dealt their fate told me they were heading south and that we were welcome to join I tried to have them join my wife and daughter

but they seemed to have a destination in mind while I gave them a couple cases of MREs I knew that they knew I had more they just took what they needed and thanked me to a guy who worked for the military now lives in like a fucking industrial size bunker. Those doors would be insane.

Can you imagine that? He's in a space station on the ground. I can't believe we're here. And also like, I know it's like, you know, a horror movie trope or whatever, but the idea of a guy who has his wife and a two-year-old and they have an entire bunker full of like food and supplies for himself being like, I just wish there were more people here.

that's what that's what would make this better no i thought what was going to happen i'm going to i almost thought that you were going to say that the colonel or whatever the ex-military guy that he's seeing this message too i thought he was going to tell nat be like you should come here because it's safe whatever i thought it was going to be that and i'm like why else would a military guy be messaging some weird fucking 14 oh he's like we have to repopulate the earth duh uh that's that dude in cube right after everyone dies he's like we're adam and eve me and you the new generation yeah yeah yeah just the bugout bag and stuff like that it's very it's very cute it's very cute well doomsday prepery

kind of meme it's yeah it's like oh got bugout bag we're trying to keep people safe i gave them cases of morees it's like no you wouldn't if you were in a bunker with your wife and child you are not making a noise you are just letting that play out yeah month later april 3rd 30th. Sun Banish says, I went to the coordinates. He finally made it. And there's a video with the message, nothing was there. No no shit, dude.

Why, the coordinates were just the highway. They're just on the highway. That's what I mean? Like, what do you mean? I went to the coordinates and it's just the highway. I thought it would be like a very specific place on like a mountain side or something. I thought that's what he was saying, right? Or no? And you just said coordinates. oh I thought that back in the day I guess I guess we're just on the highway I thought last year or something it's like oh yeah he like I don't know why I thought that but I it just seems weird it's like yeah the coordinates are just in the middle of the road why no it's it's okay it's because the Danion went out for supplies it never came back and then uh I think off of like phone I don't know even their phone tracking I'll think Danian sent a message but off phone tracking he found coordinates so Danian

was like, hey, I'm going to go get gasoline. And then he pulls up the coordinates. And Danion was last seen like 2,000 miles away. If it took him like, what, two months to get there? So Danion got whipped across the upper stratosphere. For a millisecond, his phone like dinged off a tower. So he's like, huh, that's weird. We're in Northern Maine.

and Danian, his phone went off in northern New Mexico. That's true. I thought you're saying he was. And then Danian's in Wuhan, China. He went from right here in Maine to Wuhan in four seconds. I'm so weird he can do that.

I'm sure he's absolutely. Well, I guess I have to cross the sea. God makes sure Danians okay. I guess I got to swim. Danion getting atomized. cross the lower half. Yeah, he's like stretch across. Okay, so then

Sun Vanish continues as I waited so long for nothing. He says, my arm hasn't been healing. In fact, it's been getting worse. My veins surrounding the broken part are swelling and getting darker, I guess. And then he says, this car has been following me for the past 10 minutes and attaches a picture. Uh,

and there is a car following him. This could have some relation to the car that was seen back in his camera roll. He then says, my Blood just went cold as he shares a screenshot from Danion that says pull over, we just want to talk. Ooh. That's a great, I'm sure. What if he said that in Chinese?

That'd be pretty scary too. Can you imagine that? They just threw him all the way to China and he just like acclimated to the culture. But then he says, I'm doing it with another screenshot from Daniel that says, this isn't Daniel, but he is safe. Please pull over and let us talk to you. I personally would not pull over. I don't think you should. I don't think you should.

Sun Vash continues. I don't even know what to say after that encounter. I attempted recording, but they noticed and stopped me immediately. Made me leave my phone in the car. I'm trying to make sense of what all they said. This is way beyond me. I was expecting a bunch of looters. Of course, they still had firearms, but they were very civilized.

There was a man and a woman among the group. He seemed to be the ones in charge. They were using Daniel. get to me against his will. That's why he discouraged me from tweeting and why he left. What? What? Okay, whatever. Why not just tell him that instead of being like, stop tweeting?

I have to go and then disappear. Whatever. Okay. They just said they wanted my help. But why not contact me directly? I asked about Danian and they just keep repeating. He's safe. He's safe. They want my account. They consider it valuable for reasons they won't tell me.

I said I'd consider if they told me why. They wouldn't budge, said that if the info is leaked to the wrong way it will and i quote ruin our chances of survival i don't know what they mean by that but it scares the living hell out of me all right interesting so they want his account maybe his account because he's talked before about how no one else seems to be able to get messages out and signal maybe his accounts anomalous for some reason next day may 11th he says i don't even know what to do now i finally made it to the coordinates after all this time only to be met with more questions i think i've known for a long time but now it really hit me i'm purposeless it's just what the hell can i do

except give my account to these people that have Danion. People have been sending me stuff they've been seeing and hearing. Unusual activity from the military, from the headlights, the ships, start to piece together what's going on. May 12th, he says, another photo showed up in the Remember album. And this time, it is a photo of, it's like there's a cell tower and a power line on snowy ground, but it's daytime. Yeah, because remember all the other pictures,

were daytime weren't they in the remember album some of them the last the last remember one was a guy that had the car outside that was the last one but i think i think the previous three were like during daytime i'm pretty i mean maybe yeah maybe somehow that maybe there's something with his phone where it's like there's almost two users one where the sun banished one where it didn't like a parallel universe kind of thing yeah yeah they're overlapping may 14th he says for those of you asking I don't want to reveal what I might know about these people, since I know they're watching every tweet I send. In other news, my arm is getting even worse. There's this dark ooze coming from the wound now.

And then he posts a screenshot from a text chain with Danion. How much of the contaminated water have you consumed? I don't remember. Why? It functions similar to mercury poisoning or lead poisoning. It's not just affect you in the short term. It does not just affect you in the neurologically. It is in your bloodstream. And soon, if not already, all in your vital organs.

So he's saying that his broken arm has been, has exacerbated the effect of the dark watery drink. Yeah, yeah. That his injury is like causing like blood poisoning, basically. So after that, uh, three months later, it's three months with nothing. Damn. So also to reiterate to reiterate to people too, this is all like an actual real time. So it isn't just like, oh, it's like they did not tweet this story out for another three months. Kind of crazy.

Yeah, there's these long gaps in between. And August 8, the only one who does speak is Tucker. So the sun vanished was, you know, gone for even longer. Tucker says, I can't believe it's been over a year since the start of all this. These days, the internet is less and less stable. Buffer speeds are slowing down. Social media is getting quiet. I don't know if it's just because less people are alive or what.

I don't really want to know. Then I see ships go by sometimes. Besides that, we're living fairly comfortably in our routines for a while now. I hate that life feels normal. I told myself I would log back into this account again. I had to get it off my chest. I despise this. And then everything, nobody posts until November.

That's pretty crazy. Yep. So like another three months. So the sun vanished like half a year gone from May 14th to November 12th. Also, could you imagine like another survivor group coming across like Nat and Tucker and being like, oh, what, um, what are you two doing in here? I feel like people would, if it was an end of world situation, I feel like I would just be happy to see anybody that's like normal. living. Yeah, but there's also like these again, it's

kind of what the writing. The military is still fine in some instances it feels like. Well, yeah, I can't tell if they're setting up like an umbrella corp thing where it's like our military has to do with this. You know what I mean? Or something like that. No, I mean, because it says they're shooting down the aliens.

Maybe they did the thing to summon them. Maybe it's kind of, you remember in the mist how that that soldier says like, oh, well, we were doing experiments in a lab and we opened up a portal and that's cause this. But it's not like the military wanted this to happen. They just goofed up. It's just an outcome of them. Maybe it's something like that. So November 12th, Sun Vanish says, I'm not strong enough. I can't help them. I can't save them. I can't save anyone, not even myself.

I've been thinking for a long time. Would it even make a difference if I hadn't gone after Daniel? Do the choices I make even matter? What's the point in tweeting to the void when there's nobody left? It's so, so quiet now. But the irony is, my head isn't quiet. It's like all the way to of the world got crammed in my brain. I won't stop whispering in my head. I think the accident was my arm. I think it opened up something inside me. All my veins look like this.

I feel like I have a fever. That's a fun photo. But at least I'm still alive, right? And there's like a long black vein going down his arm. So I know they're sitting up the deep water thing, but it's also one of the infected people who broke his arm. So maybe that, you know, when he came into contact with it, maybe that exasperated it too.

he then says i made it back home everything is just where i left it it feels deathly still here pretty sure that's like the exact same pattern to the footprints were in last time yep i think why did he go back to his house yeah i feel like if the whole it feels kind of weird to go back home right well i'm going to go back to my house where like the black water was that i can't drink anymore like our water lines still right anyway they're gone i don't know if they're still alive or not but they certainly aren't here i haven't heard from the green group that had Danian either. And it says,

The world has been harvested. What is there left to do? It's over. We lost. That's fun. Harvested. It's interesting. God damn, son,

that's fine. A little bit of optimism there about. Good Lord. It is very war of the worlds, that whole notion. This is the last tweet of the year here on November 23rd. Tucker says, she won't speak to me anymore.

I see the dinner table completely silent. I don't know what I did. How the hell do I fix this? Then after that, Tucker post some screenshots. of tech conversations between him and that. I like how we can't, because of the format, we can't have them converse with each other. So they're going to be in the same place tweeting at each other.

Yeah, it is kind of weird. They're just like, yeah, they have to be in the deal. Hey, what's going on? Why would you talk to me? I guess there's no point. What do you mean? I read the subconscious tweets and we don't have a chance, do we? Please don't think about it too hard.

we are surviving we're looking than most people what happens when our power runs out our clean food and our clean water i don't know very optimistic yeah very very fucking cool dude we have it at home here that's what matters right i guess are you seriously posting these conversations i'm sorry i just don't know how to fix this i don't talk to you to your solutions and screens are our private conversation smooth that please i just want to help I just want to be left alone for a while. Okay. They're in the same room. Yeah, they're like literally just standing across the room

when they're just not talking. I'm sorry for posting. I just need to fix this. Besides a nap, besides all of you, I have nobody else to turn to. I can't afford to lose someone else. It's funny to think about the mechanical abominations of the controlled people roaming free above ground

while we're down here. It makes you wonder if it's so quiet now because whoever's left decided to give up fighting. And that's the last tweet of the year in 2019. So we're coming up a moment. two years of this. Mm-hmm. Nope.

In actual real time. Yeah. I mean, it's impressive to keep a story going for this long, even if there's long gaps between it and stuff like that. There's a, there's certainly a, a dedication to it that I admire. It's pretty cool.

January 2020. Fuck. I'm fucking almost cut up my goddamn finger with my red bull can with a little lip. Good God. Don't say the, don't say the brand unless they. they sponsor us. Oh, true.

The, the liquid that turns my blood to oil. Right. Well, don't say that because I think that confirms we don't get sponsored. Oh, shit. Okay.

Water. The water cup I was drinking out of. There you go. Yeah. All right. January 25th, 2020, the first post of the new year in 2020.

And Nat says this. She says, thanks to everyone who has been asking about me. I'm doing okay. I just had to do so much growing up in such a short amount of time. Don't even know why I'm on here now.

I guess I miss having somebody to talk to. Yeah. I stuck away from Tucker a few weeks ago. I'm tired of people trying to take care of me and then let me down. Damn, dude. Tucker was the guy who's like, I'm going to go 500 miles from that. Right?

And also having this like coming of age, like I'm not a kid anymore. I'm not a kid anymore. A timeline where the sun's blotted out and the spaceships are like vaporizing people. Yeah. He wants to act like an older brother to me, but doesn't know how to not. not control those around him.

The surface isn't all that dangerous now. There's still power on internet. Despite the cold and dark, it's pretty normal. Sometimes I see people from a distance. We make eye contact, maybe a nod and continue what we're doing. I want to say to keep sending your experience in DMs, but does it really matter now? It's the same shit. Nothing is new anymore.

The ones who are left know how to take care of themselves, avoid threats and survive. We, the ones who are left, carry on. Business as usual. Which that was all reposted by the sun vanished. yes or at least that last tweet was I think I'm not sure but just in the middle of the apocalypse I'm not a kid anymore I can be on my own

very last of us it is and also like that level of well it's got other than the fact the sun doesn't exist and the corpses and aliens that exist everywhere in the headlights we have to look out it's pretty normal there's still internet like okay

whatever you say but once again we need to take it as if we're seeing the tweets now. You know what I mean? Like in real time. I know. I'm getting, I'm getting,

what's the word? I'm getting bitter for no reason. So whatever. So after this, Nat, post a screenshot of a message with the caption saying, Net,

please listen. None of this is adding up. How did the U.S. military and every other military we know of just go practically silent overnight. After months of fighting these things, they suddenly give up. And everybody,

voice of influence of the reach to civilians also eventually gives up and takes ridiculous amounts of time in between posts and what did tsv mean by harvested if there are still people around and then nat says in a quote quoting that screenshot i really like well first i just want to say there's a comment that someone just said this is still happening question mark uh yeah she said you should ask the sun vanish about what he meant but what i've got through dms all i know is any war that we were fighting was lost you want to stay alive you have to fend for yourself and rely on yourself nobody's going to come save us bruh bum bum all right

so then after that February the 5th the sun vanished tweets I miss Daniel God damn dude fuck Daniel god damn I miss danion fuck danian god

if I've been following this shit for two years and I just if I was like scrolling through Twitter one day and I just saw I miss danian I'm like god damn dude I have to unfollow I have to unfollow I mean am I wrong I mean yeah it's just been frustrating like what are we doing. Let me ask you this so far.

Go somewhere else. What have you preferred so far? The sun vanished or Gregory 88. Gregory 88. Gregory 88 because it was like sure the ending was ridiculous, but it's high points. It's pretty funny. More tied into each other because it was shorter. The entire thing was more compact.

This has been two years and some months. Like it is interesting in the long term, but to go two months and your only tweets like, I'm still alive, not sure what to do. it's like, okay. Like, you know, it would be easier to function if I just knew for certain that he was alive or not, but all I have is this in between. When I lie awake in the quietness, I can hear him. It's faint and I can't tell what he's saying, but I know it's his voice. And now my only friends, Nat and Tucker, are estranged. I haven't heard from Tucker in ages. Did I fail? I couldn't save any of them. I'm just rotting here with whatever sickness I have and the ships

pass by my house daily. Not even worth the trouble to finish off. I do like that note. I'm not worth the trouble to finish off. Gregory 88 is just becoming more and more like a savant in my eyes. With every passing. I think if we look at like the first few months of Sun vanished, I think it's superior

with like him looking outside and going to the neighbor's house. The concept is fun. But if I have to hear about Danion one more fucking time, Isaiah, I'm going to drive my fist through my fucking screen. It's also just so, dragged out. Like, yes, I understand, but why are you going to cross country? How are you going to cross

country? Why are you driving that far? Like, I'm plugging in my GPS. How is one person saying this is all normal? But then another person's like, oh, I don't know. How is their internet? You know, like, how is there internet? Yeah, like, what are we what are we talking about? Yeah, I don't know. So after this, the next day, February 6th, sun vanish continues and says, where are they going? The ships in the strobe lights. They're still here, but their patrol cycles have been different. Where are they going. About a week later, uh, on February 12th, Nat says getting a lot of a lot of vague nonsensical DMs talking about the people. Can you be more specific? Do you know who you are? Uh, about a month and a half later, the sun vanish says, Danian is here. He's in the room with me. There's Danny,

but he's here, but he's here. It's not nebulous now. He's here. All right, let's see what the pictures. He says look. Fuck. Fuck. Oh my God. Fuck you. What? The picture. What? A picture. What? I mean, it's a selfie in a mirror. Yeah, but it's, I don't know. It's just like, look, here he is. And it's like, okay, so you took a bathroom selfie with the flash on? I don't, I don't see Danion in the picture, right? Is that what it's, is it implying that he can see Danian, but we can't?

I thought he's saying that Danion is the one taking the picture. No, no, no. I think he's taking the picture. And to him, Danion's standing next to him, but he's not actually there. That's why I get from it. Also, look at his fingers. you were so right about the long spindly fingers look at that it's crazy i know gross long fucking little little tutsies dude okay yeah and after this he says he's standing behind me i can see him in

the mirror uh which yeah once again he's not there and then he says why can't you see and then post a video with the word listen repeated over and over again so there's kind of a breathy whispering noise but to me that sounds like it's probably just him right yeah it's just him sitting there doing it's just him freaking out thinking that danian's there when he's actually not uh because after that he continues says he's here i know it i just don't know what to say to him what should i say i don't know i don't know i don't know i told him i'm sorry for everything i did to him i just want him to stay here with me again like how things used to be sorry i'm sorry i'm sorry i'm sorry so in another video that says no no no he's gone he's gone

he's gone and i can't get him back i like the top comment says i'm gonna keep it real with you chief he was never there uh yeah so the next one this video is the exact same was the last one it's The Sun Vanish kind of whimpering, like crying in the corner, and there's no one else in the room with him. So, yeah, Sun Vanishes losing his mind. After that, Tucker says, as contamination continues, it's not just repeating words and phrases. You start repeating past trauma, too. And the Sun vanish responds to Tucker's tweet and says, you don't have any idea what you're talking about Tucker, to which Tucker replies. How do I know all of this?

Because it's why Nat left. It's why I'm alone all over again. the idea of them just tweeting at each other like oh i'm so lonely so next we have march the 30th march the 30th sun vanish says since you won't shut up about my hand and arm here it is but i cannot fathom why that matters right now i have to find danian so he's completely insane and his arm bro you want to talk about an arm look at that those are those fingers you've been talking about i'm telling you big old grippers he's got some some paddles on him

the next day March 31st Nat post a screenshot of a threatening message they received They never left They never left they never left They never left they never left

They never left they never left They never left they never left That was good I like that That was a good read Thank you After this Nat's account doesn't post for over a year That's great

April 3rd The Sun vanished shares a screenshot of a group chat that him Tucker and Nat's account being puppeted by an unknown party with Tucker reposting the screenshots. So, Nat says, you need to talk.

Nat. Holy shit, are you okay? Are you safe? What happened since you left? Sorry to disappoint you, Tucker, but it's not Nat. She's safe with us, though. Do not worry. Wait, what the fuck?

Who is this? Why do you have Nat's account? As I said, she's safe with us. We've been the ones you ignored for a very long time. We contacted you and, at the sun vanished multiple times, and you did not cooperate. It's the people who were on Danion's phone number and took him from me. The liars.

We are not liars. We are the people trying to help everyone stay safe. Using Dania and Nat as leverage are not something we'd like resorting to, but it is justified. Your social media accounts have turned into a beacon for the world. When the news organizations and government broadcast sees transmission, you became the new media. everyone have looked to you for guidance to survive. This is a very large responsibility that we, the people, believe that neither of you are fit to have.

I didn't ask for that responsibility. I don't want it anymore. So fine, you can take my account. I don't care anymore. Hold on a second. It's all about a Twitter account. Nobody's taking anyone's account. Who are you to say what's responsibility

where faith are not fit to have? I've heard about you people and you have no right to take our accounts. What are you going to use them for anyway? What are they arguing about Twitter accounts? If you want to make a Twitter ARG, that's fine, but don't use the Twitter account. No, no, no, use the Twitter account. We must stop all resistance efforts against the invaders.

It only hurts our chances of future survival. I don't have the first idea what you mean, but if I do what you want, will I see Danian again? Of course. You have a word. Just as we promised before. Hold on. Stop it. stop all resistance efforts

so are you the ones who quietly shut down all the military operations to take those fuckers down sure as hell sounds like you are that's irrelevant now okay sure I'll take that as a yes

I need to see Dan it again I'll do whatever it takes oh my God stop it I'll do whatever it takes I want to see Nat again too but there's no more stake right now. They're trying to take advantage of our hopelessness.

Our hopelessness. At lost sun news. The idea of these people in a post-apocalypse tweeting in a group chat. We need your Twitter account. We need your Twitter account. I need to see Danion.

I need to see the 14-year-old girl. At lost sun news. You said it hurts. our chances of future survival. What does that mean? It means that if we continue fighting against the occupiers, there's a very good chance that we all go extinct. Dun, dun, dun.

T.S.F, you cannot honestly be believing this shit. They just want control. Hell, they're probably working with them. We hate the invaders just as much as you do, Tucker. But we aren't naive enough to believe that we can defeat them. We would just encourage them to wipe us out entirely. We know what they are capable of. I don't know what to believe.

I just need some time to think. Well, I don't. The people can go, fuck yourselves. I'm not giving you anything. You can use me as ransom, but not her. You touch her and I'll break you.

Noted. And then Tucker says, I'm packing to leave first thing in the morning. I don't know where I'm going, but I'm going to find the people or they will find me. Then on October 24th, the sun vanish post a cryptic video.

Did I ever stop the thing about myself? Beyond survival? Daniel. Why did you leave for you when I needed you? I was living for you. I can't do that anymore. So the headlights, I always imagine them So the headlights, I always imagine them as like,

you know, these big, like, kind of tripod things walking around to kill people, you know, aliens. But then it's clear for like 30 seconds in that video that's just a guy holding a flashlight. I mean, like, just don't show that. And like all the monologue, it's, well, okay, we're almost done. Whatever. Okay, after this, the Sun Vantage says,

I think I'm beginning to understand. I can't just survive. I have to live. I just thought he died. Was that not his death, him saying all that and then the headlight thing attacking? I don't know. I just killed one of those things. We have a chance to fight against him. You can't hold Daniel's life over me anymore. He then says, this is what happened to my old phone. Text conversations, contact list all gone. He shows, he posts like a gif where the phone's been shattered. He says, my only hope, now is to reach out on Twitter to Tucker, find out where he went and tracked down the people

who took Nat. And also, so is that implying that the, the headlight or whatever just destroyed his phone and not him? I guess. All right. And then after that, the entire story goes dark for over a year picking back up in October 29th of 2021. But considering it goes dark for a year and considering the current emotions of the room. Hunter, you just want to, you want to call it there. You want to say that?

I think that is actually where the story concludes. I think, well, they never posted again after that. That's incredible. Our document. So this is the,

this is the thing is, here's the thing. It's, it's just so long with just nothing happening. We're not even half, we're not even halfway through. We're two pages shy. halfway through. If people were like, please finish it, please finish it, which we do sometimes.

I mean, it's just like, it's like the Barasca thing again, where it's just like, I mean, I don't know. You got to read Barasca 5. I, I, uh, well, that that's a little different admittedly because Barasca 5 was an unneeded sequel. True. True. True. True. A good story. Whereas this one is just the original story. I guess I'm just saying like, if I was in real time following this, I would probably be different but now by this point you're going on without a Twitter post for a year even the gregory 88 thing it seemed like the person actually had a idea of a story that they were doing was that there was a delivered vision was that born from the success of the sun vanished or did gregory 88 come first i'm almost positive the sun vanished came first but there's been a bunch

of twitter argy so i wouldn't i'm sure whichever one came first inspired the other but i don't think it was, uh, you know, like total. You know, I mean, I don't think one is the sole reason another existed. There were several Twitter ARGs. This can almost act like a creep TV episode. I just, I just, I'll say this with these Twitter things. If you're not like, it's different because Gregory 88, I felt like I was actually reading a story. This one just feels like you really have the ARG aspect of like you're voting on things going on,

which is cool. Or whatever, should I go? Should I not? Stuff. You know, him sitting outside of a car being like people, they're looking at me right now. I'm so scared. You have those things, which is like fine and cheesy. But I just, even with Grigory 88, the videos and pictures are the most effective part every time.

Except for the kid holding a flashlight that's strobing and walking up to you in a bathroom. But still. Okay. So the sun vanish started, uh, March, April, 2018, right? July three months before Gregory 88 started oh there you go but it didn't because Gregory 88 started July 22nd of 2018 and on July 22nd the sun vanished was at what part of the story it was at the part where the sun vanished disappears for the first time and I think this is the part where he's trying to move over to the other

house. Yes, it looks like it. So still early on in the first couple months of the sun banished, Gregory 88 started. Yeah. Yeah. So this is definitely something that was super inspiring to a lot of people in that Twitter, ARG space. And you know, here's the saying is, I mean, I think it's an awesome

way to tell a horror story and stuff. But as a interactive game that's happening now, I would like to tap out. I mean, I mean, it's just, it seems apparent to me, especially like granted with the gift of time, everything's happen immediately and, you know, maybe it worked better. But just in hindsight, it seems like it's kind of losing the plot. Like, what are we doing? We had interactive elements. Now it's just

this guy is going over here and this guy doesn't want to do this thing. So he does this thing. And it's over the course of years. So yeah, it just seems kind of directionless. So I think we're good there. Again, this is only halfway through the document. So if you guys really want us to do the other half, um, maybe, but I think for now we're good. I think we're good. Not. everything can be like a Midwest Angelica kind of fun yeah thing I but I was I mean I'm not discredding all of it I'm just saying like I just we've been recording this over I mean guys if you're like which you know not boohoo for us I'm just saying it's been days it's been days and I'm at this point where I'm like I just want to read something else right now yeah yeah just

I'm not I'm not enjoying the story let's just move on to something that I enjoy and if it was like if it was like so bad it's good that'd be different but it's not that bad it's just kind of like standard fair for a while at least we got the red solar cups in a picture of a baseball bat we did that was actually really good i did appreciate that detail a lot and also you know to be honest like as far as visual mediums and online storytelling going this does remind me how good we have it right now because right now we've got like midwest angelica gray lock the back rooms Mandela catalog. There's so many

creative visual stories happening right now. And a lot of people have nostalgia like, oh, the sun vanish was better. This old stuff was better. It's like,

no, no. It's just rose-covered goggles, you know, nostalgia goggles, which I will say, I really love when people take, when they have nothing at all

besides their buddies and an empty house or whatever, they decide to make something fun. And I think that this is obviously something that caught on with people and touched people's imagination. I think that's fucking sick. Certainly.

came certainly came from a point of passion and I can guarantee you these were younger creators the guys running this or the guy running this so if this was what he I wasn't doing stuff this complex or cool when I was like 16 17 so imagine where that guy is now with his creative endeavors yeah so yeah I mean all no I'm glad but it's been so long since we've covered another twittery RG so I'm at least happy that we did that because I would like to kind of maybe not do these that are as long that are years and years long but you can't even touch Twitter energy without people comparing it to this. So I'm at least glad that we got to introduce our audience for people who don't know what

it is to this endeavor. And hopefully the edit so far was as fun to kind of sit through and go through. Also, I want to say, too, what we have read you is a consolidated version down of everything. There's so much more that we did not. We didn't even touch the survival logs. Yeah. I mean, there's like, this is just to kind of let you know, like the just getting from A to B in terms of the story.

So if you're into this stuff, there's vastly. vastly more just want to say that but thank you guys so much for watching today's episode we appreciate you and we appreciate the line it's been a long one a couple long ones back to back so we appreciate you all we will see you next week stay creeped my friends stay creeped and if the sun vanished uh maybe just grow up and you know get better at it i guess I'm I want to be able to I'm

You know, I'm going to be able to I'm going to be. I'm a few, I'm going. And... ...and... ...and...

...and... ...a... ...and... ...and... ...and... ...and... ...and... ...that...

I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. And... ...p... ...the... ...the... ...the...
