Rule of Horror #81: Always ask why the house is being sold so cheap.

I'd consider $200 rent falling into that category, which puts us potentially in the supernatural sub-genre, particularly the sub-sub-genre dealing with entities rather than creatures. Among the surprisingly short list of paranormal horror films set in New York City is Rosemary's Baby, Dark Water, and the Devil's Advocate, as well as Dario Argento's 1980 cult classic Inferno which, due to its connections to Suspiria and the not-really-a-twist ending, could also be considered paranormal.

So here are my questions: Has anyone checked the water tank and has anyone found any strange old books written in Italian yet?

	Fair enough. Water tank is first priority. Obviously. Got my ass kicked. Before I arrived here, incidentally. I've been counting the stains on the ceiling from my hospital bed for two days. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Huh. Well, that does bring me to my second theory. Or third? Complex hallucination, time loop, or death. I've been leaning off the hallucination theory because the brain is only capable of matrixing faces this lifelike if it's already seen them before and has the data to replicate them, but death seems like an interesting alternative.

	There is something to be said for the complex hallucination theory, but it's pretty wide scale, if that's what it is. Time loop seems somewhat less plausible, but the death theory has merit. Seems kind of counter productive for me to be in hospital, if I'm dead, though. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Unless the whole life-as-simulation theory is real, in which case it would make perfect sense that death is also a simulation. Maybe your simulation had a bug in it? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Huh. You make a good point. Now I need to rethink this whole thing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It both explains a lot and opens up a whole new world of questions that can't be answered with any degree of certainty. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I like questions. But I prefer questions that can be answered. Even if it takes time and effort. Questions that lack definitive answers annoy me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	fknaudrey 2019-06-17 05:11 am UTC (link)
	Me too. But I've found that answers can often be found at the bottom of a coffee cup, so when you get out of the hole lemme know and we'll see if we can't find some and figure out what's going on. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Throw in a cheeseburger, and I'm so there. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	fknaudrey 2019-06-18 01:03 am UTC (link)
	I'll see if I can't make that happen. After all, hospital food sucks. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	If you’re after another data point, my universe was about to crash head-on into another one and wipe them both out. I’ve been wondering if I was thrown clear somehow. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	~~I’m a member of a think tank of some of the best non-evil scientific minds in the world~~ Once or twice. I’ve done a bit of work with neurology. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	The Mandela Effect is a fault in data encryption. It's a glitch in the brain's software caused by running a highly advanced OS on a Babbage machine, you can only simulate perfection with that kind of mismatch. Interdimensional travel's physical transportation. The music identification service? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	fknaudrey 2019-06-17 10:45 am UTC (link)
	Sure, that's one theory. I'm not sure I'd agree that the Mandela Effect is only a software glitch, but until we figure out how consciousness works it's kind of the least of all the points? Also, I got a C in Biology, so we're nearing the extent of my knowledge. It's a movie but that answered my question. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
