YSHDT.com was the first website used in Johnisdead. This website is owned by the Lunar Children as a portal. Many cryptic images and messages were discovered on this site relating to various characters and sometimes even the players themselves. This site is unique in the sense that it saw heavy use of flash video files. The site was later revealed to be the Lunar Children's test at hosting a portal similar to Wayward Horizon before attempting the same thing on a larger scale with Johnisdead.com. YSHDT.com hasn't been used since 2015 and the domain has since been claimed by an unrelated host.
History
YSHDT.com was first revealed to the players by TheLaw on January 22nd, 2015 - the beginning of the first arc of Johnisdead. TheLaw claimed that he had simply stumbled across the site and believed it to be related to the original Ben Drowned ARG. Over time, more and more pages were added to the site. While at first the site had a heavy focus on Majora's Mask, things soon became more abstract. The first few pages on the site seemed to be describing a cataclysmic event that has rendered the world broken. On February 16th, 2015, the site began linking players to Letschasethemouse - a blog belonging to Doug. Over time, more callouts and references were discovered on the site - along with more flash videos.
Upon the conclusion of the YSHDT Arc, activity on the website dwindled. The site saw a single update near the beginning of the Johnisdead Arc. Since then, the site has been inactive. Sometime in 2016, the site's domain was not renewed and it has since been claimed by an unrelated party.

The father is now who he seemed. He is not what he seemed.
He hurt us.
He hurt him.
I just want to go back.
Back in time.
Back before I betrayed my mother.
Before I joined this religion.
I'm scared mommy.
