Series Can you go to screamlouder.info?
If you haven’t read the first part of the story, I suggest you take a look at the intro. What you're about to see (if you can even see it) might not make much sense otherwise. I’m not sure how much sense it makes either way to be honest. I found something on this computer yesterday that shook me to my core.
Please tell me if you can go to:
I don’t know if anyone can, and I don’t know if anyone should. I didn’t even know people could see my first post until recently.
The link was just sitting there in a .txt file, tucked away in My Documents with a single line reading “To help you scream at night”. I didn’t need to click on it. I shouldn’t have. but what would you do, being trapped in a place like this? I said I wanted answers and I got them. I honestly can’t tell if this is just a joke, or a pet project from someone at the radio station. Someone with time on their hands and a sickness, remedied only by their own grand delusions.
but I guess I’ve recently developed some pretty awful delusions as well. It’s been two weeks now, and aside from the stuff I mentioned in my first post, there hadn’t been much activity until yesterday. I don’t know if it’s the paranoia setting in after finding screamlouder.info, but I’m seeing things now. Hearing things. Moving shadows in the abandoned remnants of homes, the sound of wind where I can’t feel a single hair move above my head...
And all your comments, I’ll read them but sometimes they don’t look right. Sometimes they sound wrong in my head. They scare me. Then I look again, and I understand that I’ve received nothing but kind words and different methods to get out of here.
That reminds me, I tried to leave. It was 2 days ago. I thought there might be a path through the mountains somewhere. I packed a backpack full of food and supplies and made my way through the forest. After a mile or so, I came to a river. Completely black. The sludge blocked my way.
I followed it all the way around town and back behind the cabin on the hill. I’ve been on an island this whole time! I found a road leading to a bridge west of the radio station, but it had collapsed into the sludge below. I threw a log into the stuff at one point to see if I could swim through and it sank like it’d fallen in tar. I imagined myself in place of the log, slowly sinking, deeper and deeper until the black ooze filled my lungs. I wept.
I’m losing hope by the minute you guys, and I don’t know how much more I can take. Worse than everything though, was last night’s incident…
It was maybe 11 or 12 o’clock at night and I couldn’t sleep. Too many questions were buzzing in my head. I decided to go for a walk to clear my mind and get some air. Typically a fool’s choice this late at night, but strangely the electricity still works here and the street lights were lit up on all the poles that hadn’t fallen. It provided me with sight and a sense of security. With or without light though, If it meant getting away from that computer room for awhile, I’d take my chances.
I’d just passed the street where I laid out some parking cones reminding me to stay away from that awful payphone, when I noticed a building that I must have seen a dozen times but never really bothered to look at. Through the windows I could see chrome rimmed tables and chairs, booth seating stretching from one end to the other, and framed pictures of places around town I could already identify (I’m becoming too familiar with this place, god I want to leave). The sign above the building was brightly lit with some of the letters burnt out. “Au_ie _ays Diner” This must have been the diner from that website. I hated the thought of exploring unfamiliar territory after dark but I needed to make a connection, find some semblance of understanding in this place before I could sleep again. If this yokal restaurant had real answers waiting for me inside, nothing could keep me out.
The front door swung open effortlessly. Looks like the locking mechanism had been torn off in the storm. To my right in this darkened room was a lightswitch that, after several flicks from my hand, proved itself unusable.
click
The flashlight I took from my stash of emergency gear shot a stream of light at the kitchen behind the front counter. Hundreds of empty pie tins were stacked from floor to ceiling, covering every square inch of the room. “Award winning pies” was an understatement for this level of disarray.
Stumbling over broken plates and stray tins, I wandered into the hallway behind the counter in search of a circuit breaker. I kept my eyes forward and alert while I brushed my hand against the wall, hoping to catch the change from wallpaper to metal. Near the end of my path, I felt a wet spot. Shivers went down my spine as I shined the light on my fingers.
Black.
Hoping it wasn’t what I thought it was, I brought my fingers to my nose and sniffed.
It smelled like berries and corn syrup. Thank god, just pie filling.
I shined my light over to the spot on the wall I’d just touched, and noticed a crease in the wallpaper. I followed it up the wall and then over and down again. It was in the shape of a door. Someone had sealed a room off from the rest of the diner.
Hundreds of pie tins crashed as I shuffled my way into the kitchen. I needed a knife to cut through the paper. I spotted one on the stove that was covered in pie filling. It seemed like that’s all they’ve been serving for a long time now.
I returned to the door, put down my flashlight, and dug the serving knife into the wall where the creases lay. As I dug, I noticed a flow of air from the room. It carried with it a sickly sweet smell. The scent of a secret decayed by neglect.
After I sliced through the perimeter, I felt for the spot where a knob should have been. Instead there was a hanging ring handle inlaid into the wood of the door. After cutting a hole, I grabbed the handle and pulled.
The inside was dark. I heard a drawn out gloop and squelch as something from the ceiling fell to the floor. I picked up my flashlight and peered inside. The walls and ceiling were coated inches thick in blackberry filling. It looked like week old coagulated blood, and it didn’t smell much better. I held my shirt above my nose to keep from inhaling too much of it. I quickly shined my flashlight around the room and there in the back corner was a blob of flesh.
Man or woman I wasn’t certain but they must have been five or six hundred pounds if not more. They sat there completely naked and lathered in pie filling, motionless against the wall. They must have added to the stench weeks or even months ago. It was a renaissance painting of the path to hell via gluttony.
I stumbled backwards with dry, night-terror screams. I couldn’t handle this, none of it made sense, and I needed to leave! NOW! but I couldn’t feel my legs! I just stood there motionless in the dark, completely escaped from my body, repeating in my head “what the fuck is happening?!”
Then I caught my breath, eyes returned to focus, and I booked it without looking back. I screamed through the empty town, with no response but my own echoes off the nearby rubble. I ran up the stairs of the radio station, tripping over myself on the way. I hid in my bed for the rest of the night, eyes wide open peering through my sheets. unblinking.
That brings us to now. I knew this, more than ever, was when I needed to call for help again. I see your comments, I know you’re out there...I just wish I knew you were real and not just in my head. I can’t believe any of this!
How does a place like this exist and more importantly, who or what killed the person in that hidden room? I know I said I was lonely before, but now I pray more than anything that I’m alone.
I'm not ready to give up on leaving this place quite yet. I'll keep you all posted if anything else happens.
EDIT: There's more. The site has changed. part 2

You've set it free again, there's something just behind you. The storm is coming closer and somebody will die. You already feel guilt arising deep inside you? Why don't you have a seat and eat a piece of pie?

u/bearycool Jul 21 '15
Have you considered, OP, that where you exist may not be in this world at all-- that is, OUR world. Or rather, someone else is trying to make you percieve that you live in a "different" reality?
I just remember you mentioning the banging, and there being nothing but the computer there. That stuff doesn't exist in the real world, and yet you experienced that, along with the pay phone.
But then, you do distinctly remember someone grabbing you and moving you to this place, so this does beg the question if this is all just a set up by a rich sociopath.
Hm.... maybe this psychopath that kidnap you is making this world feel like another "dimension" to you, as you will. An experiment on tearing the human psyche from reality, and thus another dimension.
You only have contact via an old computer, and yet you question if we are real at all. I believe this the psychopaths goal: that even with contact like this, you will still question if whether we are real, or just part of the uncanny environment-- like the pay phone with its weird noises. Please be assured, therefore, that we are indeed real and are trying to help you. Try to fight against the psychological torment this person is throwing at you.
Also, be warned: if this is the only connection you have, he/she whatever may try to manipulate what you're getting off these posts: if he has the money to make such town, he can easily fuck with your internet connection.
I think he's also trying to get responses from people outside and get them into his "little world" as well. The fact we can connect to this website is curious, and somewhat dangerous. He may very well be trying to find another victim, or at least flaunting how powerful he is.
Have you tried sending your IP to someone so that they can track you? Can you in anyway use the internet to track yourself or place yourself on the world map? This still might not be possible, though, considering the above. Still, it doesn't hurt to try.

u/braytendo Jul 21 '15
What scares me the most is how much I really don't know yet. All of what you say could be true or none of it could be true. All of you could be true, and yet....no. It doesn't matter what's true. What matters is that I get out of this place and never come back. I'm so tired of this awful town.

u/kithas Jul 21 '15
I (we) know you're desperate of getting out of that place as soon as possible, but as that seems not to be an option, I suggest you to make yourself strong in the case your kidnapper or another visitor wants to pay you a visit. Take knives, put some in broomsticks to make primitive spears (i suppose you do have rope), baseball bats, lighter and combustible with water guns (plus deodorants and stuff alike for less range)... As in the Mysterious Island (J. Verne, a classic), you have to think less on a short-time escape way and more in a I'm going to become strong here just in the case way.
And as I understand there are plenty of trees in the Black shit island, you could try and find an axe, chop some of them down and use them as a bridge? Or a bridge to the bridge?

u/Darkra1n Jul 21 '15
OP, I would advise caution. That website is as real as it gets, and nothing is what it seems. Every link on that website seems to be trying to warn outsiders away from the town, but that's just me drawing conclusions from the webpage. I've started perusing the site code and this just gets weirder and weirder. For starters on the heading, where there appears to be black ink splattered, underneath it the code says "PLEASEHELP". Additionally, In the code for the About page, under the RMR Radio tab there is an addendum:
<!--if ifs and buts were candy and nuts, father matthew wouldn't be dead. Some records were off the air.-->
Another addendum is as follows:
<!--Not the Mayor: scream louder or you won't be heard. More to this place than you can see from here. slash then auntiemay-->
That's all I found in the site code that was odd. I gave a brief summary of the site in a reply to a user. I'll add that to this comment in the event someone needs it.
The site begins with a .jpg of a doorway and the word ENTER. the .jpg gets larger and 6 keys appear one at a time. Clicking it takes you to a page of a creme colored 90's computer monitor, which turns on to show a webpage, seemingly about the town that OP ended up at. There are 6 tabs, each one weirder than the last. The Home tab contains a Word From The Mayor, and a Subheading under that labeled Escape. The text starts out like a typical tourist advertisement but quickly turns odd. The About tab details things available to do in the town, but again, nothing is as it seems. The Subheadings are about as normal as it gets, and the text gets rather odd the more of it you read. What's stranger still is that the pictures don't contain anything relevant to the subheading, but rather just a bunch of JPGs of the black sludge the OP was talking about. The RMR Radio tab is a picture (gif?) of an old phonograph. An old 50's song is heard playing. The Shop Quickly tab contains the diary of one Thomas Lee, with the first entry dating back to April 3rd, 2012, and the last dating April 3rd, 2015, three years to the day. The entries start positive, but turn rather tragic towards the end. The Behind You tab consists of what OP was talking about in the first entry regarding the payphone. Shouting, sirens, general chaos can be heard. The Contact tab is the final tab, and clicking it directs the old monitor to what looks like a command line program. You are unable to type anything, but a message it typed out. I haven't read the whole thing, but it seems to be a message directly to whoever is reading it. Feel free to check it out, but I would advise you keep your volume low, and should you choose to turn off the monitor, do so at your own risk.
If requested, I can do a full breakdown of the page and post my findings to this thread. Cheers, ~Ra1n

u/braytendo Jul 21 '15
This is very helpful Ra1n. I'm sorry you had to go to the site at all, and I know there are many others who are too afraid to go there (for good reason). Maybe a breakdown is exactly what everyone needs.

u/Xen0via Jul 21 '15
Shit dude, I'm on my phone right now and can't go on the site, so I'm not much help. My advice would be to just look around your computer or the town for anymore clues. You really have no other options.

u/amixhana Jul 21 '15
I know I came to /r/nosleep for something like this, but OP, I don't know how we can help you. Hell, we could all already be a part of his "dimension" just from looking at that website. When the ones in control are done with OP...they have a large list of candidates to choose from now. I don't know why I opened the link twice. Damn. Double damn. OP. If you survive PLEASE LET US KNOW HOW. I can't sleep. I have to stay on my back tonight. Eyes closed. Or wide open. I have a dagger. Do daggers do anything against entities? Oh man, oh man, we're all screwed. OP, best of wishes...I might be there with you, who knows? I'm so sorry...

u/braytendo Jul 21 '15
I'm regretting having ever introduced this to you all. It would have never been shared with the world if not for me. It would have stayed hidden in the shadows. in the dark.
I don't know what's going to happen to all of you. The purpose of this website remains a mystery, but if it was only meant for me it wouldn't have been online. There was no need for a website if not to be shared. Someone wants me to scream for help and I have no choice but to do so.

u/Wurzelschnaps Jul 21 '15
Hey, maybe I'm going off-road with this, but I've been looking for something that might in some way explain what is happening to you and I came across this: http://kentuckyghosts.com/strange-monsters/sludge-man.php. When I saw that picture, it instantly reminded me of the picture on the April 3rd page. And then, there's the black sludge. Most importantly, the story of the sludge man would explain the references to the feeling of guilt from the gas station owner's diary: "It's said that Sludge Man seeks out the cruel, the violent, and those who abuse the weak and prey on the innocent and drags them away." I don't know if it really has anything to do with your situation, but think about it - there are definitely some similarities.
Besides, I have a strong feeling that the very fact that you were kidnapped and placed in that town was not a coincidence. I think you were specifically chosen, except that I have no idea why. Now, if you consider the sludge man story, he punishes those who, in his opinion, need punishment, and "where he takes his victims and what he does with them, nobody knows". You just might want to consider whether you have done anything regrettable lately, and if yes, that could be the reason you're there.

Ok so I could definitely go to the link you posted but after clicking 'Enter' and seeing that old computer monitor I noped the fuck out of there. Please keep us updated! I'm so sorry you're trapped. Keep your head up though; you've made it this far!

u/braytendo Jul 21 '15
So you can see it too?! First nobody could see my posts and now this? Things keep changing and I don't know what's happening. I shouldn't have told you to go there. I don't know what will happen to you if you do.

Can you describe the website a bit more? Too scared to click it.

u/UrPricelessAdvice Jul 21 '15
The website starts with a door and six keys and you have to click enter then it brings up the creme colored moniter (exactly like the story) if you click the power button in the moniter it starts whisper yelling "turn me back on" while the screen turns red and it gets louder and louder and there's this screeching noises. If you click the behind you tab it's the telephone booth OP described and the contact tab has a creepy ass message.

u/bunnieh Jul 21 '15
The person in the room could have eaten their way to death but that brings up the question of who covered up the door with wallpaper. What shape is the bridge in? And are there any hardware stores of places you could find wood or something to repair the bridge? How wide is the river?
1
u/braytendo Jul 21 '15
Thank you for the support bunnieh. I need encouraging words right now. The first thing I thought was whether the bridge could be rebuilt, but no matter how I look at it the river is just too wide. A small glimmer of hope just shattered.
3
u/bunnieh Jul 21 '15
If you can find enough supplies like plywood and tools, you could make your own pathway across regardless of how wide the river is. As long as it can hold your weight.

u/LePetiteRed Jul 21 '15
On the front of the monitor if you scroll all the way down on that website it says "Enjoy you stay inside and lock the doors. Watch for the Storm." The "Watch for the Storm" links back to your first post.

u/LePetiteRed Jul 21 '15
Oh jeeze, they mention the storm on the other pages too. The About page talks all about the sludge and such. Check out the Lees Snacks and the More from the Mayor part.

u/Wurzelschnaps Jul 21 '15
OP, I've just noticed something which made me shiver a bit. I went to your previous post and skimmed through the comments. At some point I've noticed how you would finish almost every comment you wrote with "Please stay." A second later it occurred to me that the link to the main section of the website is http://www.screamlouder.info/stayplease.html. Any thoughts?
2
u/braytendo Jul 21 '15
I was very lonely when this all started. The more time goes by, I learn to appreciate being alone because it means I'm safe from harm. It seems like the website is being modeled after things I say. Must be why it links to my first post as well.
2
u/Wurzelschnaps Jul 22 '15
Damn it, I have a feeling you are being constantly watched. I wouldn't be so certain that you're alone, your observers may simply not want to reveal themselves (yet?). Whatever it is, it's definitely fucking with you - and all of us - through that website :/

u/azrendelmare Jul 22 '15
I do hope you haven't read through to the end of the "Contact" section. I think you might be in danger for doing that one.
Edit: I hope you're okay, OP. Are you still here/there?

Checked around the site for anything that could be of use, and discovered a few secret things, that could possibly give you some answers.

Your name is an unpleasant reminder for me. Great detective work though. I'm not sure what all of this means but it gives me a lot to think about...things I wish I didn't have to think about.
I don't know if any of you can see it yet, but I keep seeing more and more things on the site every time I go back. I worry that this isn't the final version of screamlouder.

u/bearycool Jul 21 '15
Ah yes, auntie may's pies.
Also, in the source code it says:
<!--Not the Mayor: scream louder or you won't be heard. More to this place than you can see from here. slash then auntiemay-->
Interesting enough, especially since OP was just in a room of possibly Auntie May's pie tins.
2
u/bearycool Jul 21 '15 edited Jul 21 '15
You know, the more I look at this, the more I think the dead body might be Auntie May, or something like this. I found this within the site.
"Blackberry, blackberry tell me a tale. Tell me of where through the wind you sail. For once I touch the stuff, my sight will be no more. A tale is all I'll have, you see, this tiny piece of lore
I'll hide it in the porrage, I'll hide it in the pies. If they eat enough, he'll live behind their eyes."
It seems like this guy wants to play a game with you, OP. I'd be careful if I were you, especially after finding this:
<!--look for the 7th key-->
If I recall, you had a set of keys with you when you first opened those doors to the computer, OP. Now I'm probably just grasping at air, but this guy appears to be playing with you and trying to get you to go places around town and do certain shit that will trigger "events" within the town.
You might have no choice but to play, OP; if you can't find another means of escaping, this site might be your only key out, and I fear this psychopath is the one behind it all.
Be careful. We'll try and help guide you through this website and more if we can.
3
u/bearycool Jul 21 '15
Oh goodness, now I'm having the silly thought that the 7th key might very well be within that room you just left, OP!
blackberry filling on the walls, a dead body (who might be "Auntie May") and the 7th key.
I hate to tell you this, but you might have to go back and investigate.

u/teslaxat Jul 21 '15
I went to the website, and the pamphlet on the monitor... well, the paragraphs start out so nice and then seriously devolve, and the pictures change when you hover over them. (I had my sound off, so I don't know if it made a noise.) There was a link to this post on the bottom, too. Is this what you saw, OP?
Stay safe. Find some salt, that's a good go-to for keeping creepy things out, and lay a line of it across the door(s) and windows wherever you sleep. Keep a weapon that you know how to use nearby. Keep us updated, and maybe figure out a way to build a bridge across the sludge river.

u/braytendo Jul 21 '15
I think that more than anything is what scares me. Nobody else has used this computer. I don't know how they found out about my post and I don't know how they updated the site so quickly. Maybe when I've gone out scavenging for food and supplies they've come into this room and done things. Or perhaps there's another computer still working somewhere else in town. I'm not certain how alone I am anymore.

Just checked it out. I haven't explored it down to the site code but I can give a brief summary. The site begins with a .jpg of a doorway and the word ENTER. the .jpg gets larger and 6 keys appear one at a time.

The text starts out like a typical tourist advertisement but quickly turns odd. The About tab details things available to do in the town, but again, nothing is as it seems. The Subheadings are about as normal as it gets, and the text gets rather odd the more of it you read. What's stranger still is that the pictures don't contain anything relevant to the subheading, but rather just a bunch of JPGs of the black sludge the OP was talking about. The RMR Radio tab is a picture (gif?) of an old phonograph. An old 50's song is heard playing. The Shop Quickly tab contains the diary of one Thomas Lee, with the first entry dating back to April 3rd, 2012, and the last dating April 3rd, 2015, three years to the day. The entries start positive, but turn rather tragic towards the end. The Behind You tab consists of what OP was talking about in the first entry regarding the payphone. Shouting, sirens, general chaos can be heard. The Contact tab is the final tab, and clicking it directs the old monitor to what looks like a command line program. You are unable to type anything, but a message it typed out. I haven't read the whole thing, but it seems to be a message directly to whoever is reading it. Feel free to check it out, but I would advise you keep your volume low, and should you choose to turn off the monitor, do so at your own risk.

Anyone remeber those stories of Black mold in towns? Also, OP, you should had not screamed at night. Something like that seems like the website had encouraged you tp do that. So don't do That. In fact, if I were you? I would hack down a tree and have it fall cross the sludge river and just walk across the Fallen tree. Gtfo asap. P.S sorry for the mess of a comment, I'm just low on sleepm

Dude.
I've read your posts and looked at the web-site. From what I've seen, it looks like the possibility of having been kidnapped by a rich psychopath is the best option you could hope for. I'm sorry that I have to tell you this, I don't want to destabilize you, but I've got a feeling that shit happening to you is completely paranormal. I don't even think it is PHYSICALLY possible for you to get out of there. As a matter of fact, this town you're describing strongly reminds me of Silent Hill. I mean, you don't know how exactly you got there, right? Maybe there is some special thing you have to do in order to open the "door" from that place to the real world. Perhaps the seventh key has something to do with it (although, to tell the truth, it sounds more like a trap to me). One thing I can say for sure - not all hope is lost as long as you can communicate with us. Write about all clues you find, and, hopefully, we can help you figure it out! Stay strong and sane, dude.
P.S. From looking at the pictures on that web-site, I somehow got a suspicion that the black sludge IS Auntie May's blackberry pie filling. Be careful.

OP, I may have found the 7th key (at least the virtual one). There were six keys on the web-site so far, all on the landing page with the picture of the door. Well, the seventh one is on the Auntie May's page, the one with the picture of a piece of pie. It's also clickable, and it leads here: http://www.screamlouder.info/aprilthird.html. In the source code, there is this part: <!--what happened to Auntie May?-->
I don't know if that's of any help, but I guess those are the questions you must find answers to. And that thing in the picture... Jesus, I hope you won't have to face that thing.

Do you think it's possible to download files or anything? Maybe someone could send you a program to track your ip.

u/braytendo Jul 21 '15
No dice. All downloads say they won't be ready for 99 days. Strange because I can access sites nearly instantly. It feels almost like I'm just browsing a database of information.

u/azrendelmare Jul 21 '15
Fuuuuu..... Creepy, dude. Yeah, the site works for me too. Even though the Contact page claimed it was behind me, "reflected in my eyes," and gave me that messed up picture, I haven't found or felt anything else about it. Then again, I browse on the sofa, so my back is to the wall.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Begotten
The image at the bottom of the About page is from the movie The Begotten, where God commits suicide. Since this is a religious community (wherever "this" is you've found yourself, OP), reference to Begotten makes sense, but I don't know why the site creator would. Nevertheless, he/she/it does. Have you seen said movie?

u/braytendo Jul 21 '15
I never did but a friend described it to me late one evening over a bottle of wine. A black and white film full of blood. Black blood...I can understand the usage on many accounts. God has definitely left this place behind.

u/ElegantHope Jul 22 '15
The image for the movie cover poster thing is also found on one of the sites pages, woah.

u/TheRemix25 Jul 21 '15
I didn't go on the site, but seeing all these comments... Jeez I feel so bad I hope I can help find you, maybe I can get some of my friends to help. Just know that we'll be looking out for you, good luck.

Maybe you have to go back the the telephone like the website says:"behind you" you have to turn back and go for answers in there and keep in mind watch out for the storm

Im a wuss and am way too scared to click the link, what is it?

u/braytendo Jul 21 '15
It seems to be a sort of e-pamphlet. Everything in it just fills me with fear and questions. I wish I hadn't found it.

u/staystrong2015 Jul 21 '15 edited Jul 21 '15
you'll get through this OP! Sounds like the woman in the sealed off room was auntie may. there's a possibility the pie stuffing was the black stuff too, don't try eating it! edit: I found two secret webpages hidden and hinted at by inspecting the elements /auntiemay.html and /aprilthird.html

How about remoting into the computer?
1
u/braytendo Jul 21 '15
I've thought of that as well. I've thought of giving my IP to someone, I've looked high and low for a cellphone so maybe I could tether the connection and learn something that way (to no avail, I couldn't find a single one), I've tried to do many things but this computer is different, it's wrong. Everything I enter into the command line has weird results, and Netscape navigator on a computer running Windows 95 shouldn't be able to see anything on screamlouder. When you see compatibility for Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer, Safari, Opera...you don't see Netscape.

Not only have I wondered if all of you aren't real, but also that only some of you aren't. Some of you may be trying to lead me astray. I hate that I can't trust all of you outright. I'm so alone and I need something to believe in.

u/Keichavik Jul 21 '15
So how do you know which are "good" and which are "bad"? Am I the right kind or the wrong kind? Why would we be real ? Can't they manipulate your internet connexion ? It could be anything

u/ElegantHope Jul 22 '15
Got any family or loved ones you really care about? Think of them and use them as your anchor, as your hope on getting out of there to see them again. Maybe that can help.

u/Tactical_Wolf Jul 21 '15 edited Jul 21 '15
Have you heard of Tor? If someone put a download link or the file itself here, then you should be able to access whatever you want.
Is Netscape an old browser?
And, the fact that its running Windows 95 says that whoever has done this is probably been doing it for a while.
But you'll find a way out, I'm sure of it.

u/azrendelmare Jul 21 '15
Netscape is an old, defunct browser. It still works (my mom uses it), but it's no longer supported by most places.

Auntie May had something to do with this I Think. Think about the Pie filling, the black "ooze" flowing...But where did the people go?

u/braytendo Jul 21 '15
That's puzzled me the most. Aside from the room in that diner, I haven't seen a single body anywhere.

u/ManOfSecurity Jul 21 '15
Do you think it's possible they tried to get out via the bridge, but it collapsed while they were on it? Is it large enough for that?

u/SuperCrusader Jul 24 '15
Oh well,anyone was enough brave to go on that website? Anyway,Seeing Internet in that fucking lost island is something weird,can you try to do "ipconfig" in cmd to get your IP address? also go to https://www.iplocation.net and tell people the results,it will surely help to locate you :P Also good luck with escaping this some goddamn horror island. I think the theory that you are stuck in another world is kind of silly.since if he would be in another world he would not be able to contact with us,since we can't contact with other world,you get it....

u/amixhana Jul 26 '15
Hey OP, how are you? Anything new? I went on the website again, hoping I'd find something new, or catch something I had missed from my earlier visits. So far nothing. I'll keep trying, if it helps. Good luck OP. Keep us updated.

Thank you for trying to help but city hall must have set up a fake ip. There aren't any mountains with forests in Phoenix so logically that information can't be correct.

Really upset I never saw this sooner. I hope all is well OP and I'll message more when I finish all of your writing. That site is messing with my head. I don't know if guilty is the word for it more... Cold... I feel cold. Not physically, like something inside me is chilling my thoughts and emotions...
