The story so far...
In the previous section, Tyler finally began uploading again after being absent for nearly an entire year. First, he uploaded some confusing footage of what happened to him when he was kidnapped in 2015. Afterwards, he uploaded a few general update videos. Here, he revealed that he fell into a coma in June of 2016 and didn't awake until January 1st, 2017. Upon doing so, he found that he was now wearing a strange Bullet Necklace.
Despite these odd occurrences, Tyler's life has been fairly uneventful. He has had no recent encounters with the Lunar Children or the local authorities. Additionally, he's been attempting to research the cult via books and public records. Unfortunately, he seems to be under some sort of trance. Whenever he attempts to dive too deeply into his studies, he's suddenly unable to focus. Also, his memory seems even worse now. To make matters worse, strange uploads on his YouTube channel seem to imply that Tenebris, Regiminis, and Patrem all managed to survive the chaos of Youshouldnthavedonethat.net.
Meanwhile, the players found several journal entries from Hope - the girl who briefly spoke to them on Youshouldnthavedonethat.net. Here, Hope reveals that she and two of her friends are Lunar Children who survived The Cataclysm at The Spire. However, upon returning to the ruins of The Spire, they found that it was strangely untouched as if The Cataclysm never took place. Having nowhere else to go, the three decided to take shelter in the abandoned building. Unfortunately, one of Hope's friends was very sick, so they took him to a hospital. Thankfully, Hope's friend made a recovery. Meanwhile, Hope began noticing more oddities around The Spire. For some odd reason, no one aside from Hope and her friends could see The Spire. Also, Hope's belongings were seemingly moving on their own and she could occasionally hear a voice speaking to her... Further exploration of The Spire led to her discovering a small lockbox that contained some money, unopened letters, and a necklace. Unfortunately, Hope's fate is left unknown as her journals abruptly end.
Later on, the players discovered that Lunarchildren.com updated with a new announcement from someone known as "TheArchiveGuy". This individual had some friends who knew members of the Lunar Children. In an an attempt to help out their friends, TheArchiveGuy retrieved the Lunar Children servers from the Fishery. Unfortunately, most of the files contained within them were encrypted. Meanwhile, more oddities began cropping up in Tyler's life once again as he suddenly remembered the now-missing Briefcase containing the camera. Additionally, he also discovered that there was now a supernatural Detour Sign in his yard that seemed to teleport him whenever touched...
As he's slowly surrounded by more and more supernatural occurrences, it seems this relatively peaceful era of Tyler's life is beginning to come to an end...

Story
While Tyler was investigating the strange Detour Sign in his yard, activity was brewing in the Internet Detectives Discord server. On May 4th, 2018, a player named Greth decided to begin his own series of vlogs on a new YouTube channel - Greth Vlogs. This was the same player who made several crucial submissions throughout both Jadusable's ARG and Johnisdead. He was also one of the three players selected by Jeremy to be involved in the "Circle of Three" in 2016.
These vlogs started off fairly mundane with "Greth Vlogs 1".

The video begins with Greth sitting in a room recording himself.
Greth: "Oh shit, this has started. What's up everybody. I look- I look like shit. Uh... I'm starting up this new vlog channel as like a sub-channel to my normal one. I don't really know what I'm doing with it yet, um... I just figured it'd be cool to start something new in my life that's creative or at least keeping me entertained because I don't have internet right now except for the mobile data on my phone. I just moved into a new apartment, um... I'm really into it, uh, I got new roommates and all my shit is set up except for the fact that the place looks like garbage and I'll show you that in a second, but that's just because I've been lazy and really haven't put everything together yet. (Coughs) Uh, I guess I'll give you a little sneak peek at the place and uh hopefully from now on I'll be doing, uh... fairly regular uploads about my life and what's going on and keeping in touch and- holy shit I need to trim this beard... Alright."
Summary
- Greth claims that he's started this channel simply out of boredom.
- Greth notes that he's just recently moved into a new apartment and that he has some new roommates.
Greth claims that the point of this new YouTube channel is to simply keep himself entertained. He's currently having difficulty staying connected with his fellow players because he has no internet and has to rely on his phone's mobile data. Additionally, Greth has just recently moved into an apartment with some new roommates.
Later that same day, Greth decided to give the players a tour of his new apartment in the form of "Greth Vlogs 2":

This video begins with Greth giving a tour of his room.
Greth: "As, uh... As I mentioned, here's my room. It's a little messy right now because I haven't got a whole lot of shit really put together. There's the girlfriend's Xbox. My poor PS4 is like... in the fucking closet here."
Greth opens the closet door. A PS4 and a white mask can be seen in a box. Greth exits the closet and begins showing the rest of his room.
Greth: "Um, yeah, it's just uh- it's a pretty sick place. Got my pet guinea pig named Hella Jeff hanging down there. Got all my Blu-rays and shit over here. There's probably a lot of fan interference in the audio, that's okay."
Greth walks through the hallway and begins showing some other rooms.
Greth: "Got my bathroom up in here. I like to light incense because my shit smells."
The video cuts ahead a bit.
Greth: "I'm out of my room. Here's, like, the place. Uhh, Matt's in there, leave him alone. Here's the kitchen... You know, I mean... it's cool, I do a lot of shit in here. Um, there's our living room. We haven't really set it up. This is mostly my stuff, I'm a horrible, horrible roommate who hasn't put anything away... uh, with my bookshelf, actually. Up here you can see there's a lot of shit on it already. We got our own patio set up, and here's my favorite part - give me a sec..."
The video cuts, Greth is now standing in front of a door.
Greth: "So, we're back at the front door which is actually by my room. Umm, my room's right... right there. And behind that..."
Greth turns around to reveal a staircase. He begins descending into a dark room.
Greth: "Sorry for the darkness, give me a second..."
He turns on a light and opens a door to another room.
Greth: "Ba-boom. Ba-boom... Ba-boom. We got the garage, and that's my car. What's up. I've never had my own garage before, that's exciting I guess. We got the weird clown table as I call it that we're going to maybe repaint... I don't know. We got this TV stand that we have to take upstairs. I've got a lot of shit on this too because, again, I'm terrible. You got some chairs out here that we're actually probably going to leave here. Washer, dryer- the works."
The video cuts once more.
Greth: "Uhh, we're back in my room now. I have not showered yet today, sorry I look like shit. Uh, just thought I'd give a little intro to what's going on in my life and... I don't know, maybe next time on video I won't look so crappy. I was up till 4am talking to Tyler. Um... Yeah, that's the place... and I'll keep you guys posted about stuff that's going on, and... What I'm gonna be doing and if anything interesting happens, and uh... Hopefully I'll make another one of these soon. Maybe a little more interesting than this one. I look like fuck... Alright, guys. See you around."
The video cuts forward.
Greth: "Hey guys, I uh just took a shower and trimmed my beard. Uh, I guess I just wanted to make a clarification of purpose of this channel here, um... The main reason I'm doing it is not, uh... (Coughs) To expect any sort of, like, long-term viewership, or... anything really worth mentioning. Hold on, I'm get- trying to get this movie started so I can watch it after I finish this video. Uhh... fuck, hold on a second. (Laughs)"
Another video cut forward.
Greth: "Okay. (Laughs) Uh, I think I fixed that. Anyways, um... A major clarification of purpose here is that, uh, I don't except any sort of long-term viewership from these videos. I just wanted to, um... Really give myself and outlet where I could speak my mind and just kind of... not necessarily be creative but just give myself an outlet, because... Um, I'm going through a pretty stressful time with this whole move and like... a lot of big changes in my life, and... most of them have been positive... but it can still really... you know, uh, rack your brain. I don't know how to process new things sometimes and even though I've been living in this apartment now for... about a week, um... I'm not really entirely sure where this, uh... where this adventure is going to take me. God, I'm fucking fat. But I hope that, uh... Sorry, still trying to get my movie set up. I hope that, uh, you know maybe you guys will be interested in what I have to say and kinda showing you what I'm doing on the daily... Not literally everyday, I can't imagine I'll remember to do this everyday. But, um... Maybe I'll be interested enough in what I've got to say and what I'm doing with my life that... maybe I'll have a regular viewership amongst my friends at least. Um... I'll catch you guys on the flipside there. I'm about to watch a movie I like, uh, before work. Umm, what'd I do with the case... Ah, here it is. It's um... The Man Who Fell To Earth with David Bowie... It's, uh... actually a Japanese print because, uh... this movie was very expensive to get in English at one point and it has English audio, so there's no reason not to just get a Japanese copy. I'm getting off-topic... See you all later. Peace."
Summary
- Greth gives the players a tour of his new apartment.
- Greth claims that the name of one of his roommates is "Mat".
- A strange white mask can be seen in Greth's closet.
- Greth claims that he was up late last night chatting with Tyler.
The video above is a fairly casual tour of Greth's new apartment. However, there are a few oddities that stand out...
Firstly, Greth mentions that one of his roommates is actually named "Mat". While this could simply be a coincidence, it did raise some alarm bells for the players...
Secondly, Greth claims that he stayed up late the night before chatting with Tyler. This is strange because Tyler himself had not made any sort of direct contact with the players since 2015. Instead, this is most likely referring to an out-of-character conversation with the GM Tyler - not the character Tyler. This is supported by the fact that Tyler was fairly active in non-canon conversations on Discord around this time.
Finally, when Greth opens his closet, a strange white mask can be seen sitting inside:
Although these details set players on edge, they still had no reason to suspect that Greth's uploads were anything out of the ordinary.
That same day, Greth uploaded another video - "Greth Vlogs 3".

This video begins with Greth recording himself while driving in his car.
Greth: "Hey guys. I, uh, decided to make one last part to this introductory video. I know, I keep saying goodbye and then not fucking doing it... But, uh... Decided that it'd be interesting, maybe, if since you kinda saw my new place for the first time... I go check out my old room at my parent's house where I was for quite a while. It's not the only place I've lived in my life, in fact it's... I didn't even live there too long in retrospect, but... A lot of you kinda know that room. Especially if you talked to me on Skype and Discord back in the day, uh, during the uh... major stuff that was happening with... the website and stuff. You probably remember I had a clicky-ass fan. Whenever I would talk on Skype it would be like:"
Greth makes several clicking sounds with his mouth.
Greth: "And everyone would get fucking annoyed at me. That's not going to be a problem anymore, obviously. Uh, but the other place, or the new place rather doesn't- doesn't have internet yet... and that means I would have to upload this video on mobile data and I don't really want to do that yet... and my parent's house isn't very far away so we're just gonna kinda take a little trip there to check out the old place. I wanna grab a few things that I needed that I still haven't grabbed from that house, and we're gonna... look at the old room. It's, uh, pretty much fucking empty now except for like a desk, but maybe it will be interesting to see that, I don't know."
The video cuts ahead. We see a FedEx parked in front of Greth.
Greth: "Fuck, this asshole won't move... We're good! Yay."
The video cuts ahead once more.
Greth: "Someone is listening to fucking Apple Bottom Jeans. In 2018. I think it's that guy."
The video cuts, showing Greth driving down a highway. It then cuts once more to Greth pulling up to where his parents live. He drives up to an automated gate that is slowly closing.
Greth: "Auuuugh, did I make it? Did I make it? Yeah, fuck you."
The video cuts to Greth pulling into a driveway.
Greth: "And here we is. The old place where the parents live. Yeah."
The video cuts to Greth's empty room.
Greth: "And here it is. It's all empty now... In case you've been a friend of mine for a long time on the internet you probably know I made a series called 979. A lot of that shit was shot right out back here... Um... There's my desk I still gotta move back. I'm not- I'm not doing that now. Here's the old bathroom... One fucking working light, of course. Uh... gross-ass shower. Fun fact, this might look a little familiar. This shower was also used in that series as like... a fucking replacement for a lab or something, I don't know. It was supposed to be a spooky video, so you couldn't really see much anyways. And you, uh, can see Link is still up there. I gotta take that bad boy down and take him with me. But that will happen soon enough. Umm, yeah. Uh, I guess I can open closets, but... Ugh, there's nothing in here I'm expecting. ...Yep. Okay, that is it."
The video cuts forward.
Greth: "I, uh, got what I came for. Uh, primarily tea from a company that no longer exists. Uh, so... those are going to be hard to replace but I figured I might as well use what I got left while I still got it. Goddamn, these camera angles are crazy, I'm sorry I'm just kinda moving while holding the phone. Um... For real now. I'm gone. See ya."
The video cuts back to Greth's room as he films his ceiling fan.
Greth: "...Of course it doesn't fucking click anymore. God. Damn it."
Summary
- This video shows Greth returning to his family's home to retrieve some items for his apartment.
- Greth mentions "I Am 979" - a separate ARG that he created back in 2016.
This video seems to be another fairly casual vlog from Greth. Here, he visits his old family home to retrieve some items for his new apartment. While filming his old house, he mentions "I Am 979" - an ARG that he had previously created back in 2016. Much like Johnisdead, I Am 979's playerbase mainly consisted of users from Within Hubris. The story focused on the Wyndstrom Institution - an enigmatic organization that housed many anomalous entities called "Units". The most notable of these entities was a cruel spirit called "Ghost Babel", a sentient mouse named "Cursor", and an escaped unit simply known as "979". More details regarding I Am 979 can be read here, though they aren't required to understand Johnisdead.
Meanwhile, back in the Internet Detective Discord server, some drama broke out amongst the players regarding the server's rules. Amongst the discourse, Greth uploaded "Greth Vlogs 4".

This video begins with Greth driving in his car.
Greth: "So this is just a quick update. Um... I'm getting ready for work... Or actually I'm driving to work. Uh, you can see I've got my sweet Secret of Mana sweater on. (Laughs) Um... I guess, as I had to explain in the actual ID, um... Part of the reason I'm doing this is because it helps me feel closer to you guys regardless- regardless of whether you actually watch them or not, I feel like... I'm kinda reminding myself that I need to... interact with ID more. (Coughs) The Internet Detectives more because it's a community that kinda adopted me post-Within Hubris and it's a community I like a lot, and uh... I've been put in a position recently where, uh... I should not take said community for granted and I should really just be around... And I know this really has nothing to do with Discord or, like, moderating or whatever- any of that. But it just kind of helps me stay focused and, you know, have an outlet and let you guys know I'm here, I guess. Um, this is the quickest of updates... Not the hardest button to button, kinda the easiest one... but it was worth saying... and I love you guys, and I appreciate you guys... and I think that despite some vitriol that the group can kinda have towards itself sometimes that we have a long time together still of good times ahead. And... my hair is very long so I'm sorry if it's in my eyes. That's it. Bye."
Summary
- Greth expresses his fondness towards the Internet Detectives despite the in-fighting.
In the video above, Greth addresses some of the drama that's been happening recently within the Internet Detectives Discord server. He expresses his fondness towards his fellow players and shares his hopes that they'll remain in-tact for many years to come - despite the occasional in-fighting.
After the feel-good upload above, Greth uploaded a somewhat unnerving video later that night - "Greth Vlogs 6(?)".

Not sure what happened to 5
<--- Click for Video Transcript
This video starts with Greth looking into the camera in his room.
Greth: "Hey guys, uh... I'm just making a quick video. Um... (Coughs) I uploaded another video, uh... but... I don't know what happened to it, so... I'm just making this to say that... sorry for the lack of whatever video was supposed to be up. Uh, it just... wasn't showing up. After I uploaded it I don't know what happened. Uh, it's a little weird. Um, but I'm not too concerned- it wasn't really much other than bullshit anyway, so... Sorry about that. We'll keep this going, though."
As the video ends we see a very short clip of someone holding Greth's white mask.
Summary
- Greth claims he had another video uploaded but it's not appearing for some reason.
- An unknown figure can be seen holding Greth's white mask.
Greth claims that he had uploaded "Greth Vlogs 5". However, for whatever reason, it seems to be gone. As the video ends, a brief clip of what appears to be someone holding Greth's white mask can be seen.
Needless to say, the players were quite concerned after seeing this... On May 5th, 2018, Greth addressed these concerns in a new upload - "Greth Vlogs 7".

lmao I'm so tired
<--- Click for Video Transcript
This video begins with Greth recording himself in his car.
Greth: "Uh, shoot. I didn't realize I was recording already. Hey guys, what's going on. Uh... Some weird shit was happening last night. Uh, I don't really know what that was about. Um... I don't know what to say. I think it was probably just some kind of error. Um, I've been using my mobile phone right now exclusively. It's not even a great one, it's a Samsung, uh... Galaxy J7, not even an S7, so it's like not top of the line shit. Um, but... I'm on my break from work right now, just kinda taking a quick video to say that I wouldn't worry about whatever was going on last night. Um... I was having some pretty heavy conversation with Tyler the night before... Maybe I just don't remember making those- that video- it could be anything, honestly. Uh, that, uh... that whatever happened at the end of that video, I'm not too worried about it. Probably no big deal. Um, but I'm gonna keep up the v-logs, or vlogs- whatever you wanna call them. Uh, this is just a quickie to say that yes, I'm alive. Everything is fine, uh, I've been at work today so far. Uh, I will be here until tonight... even though I'm on break right now I'm going to fucking McDonalds like the horrible human being I am. And then, uh... hopefully I'll make another vlog or two by the end of the day. Probably just the one... other one for tonight. Um... but yeah, I'll keep in touch and everything's fine."
Summary
- Greth brushes off the recent oddities as simple video errors.
Here, Greth simply brushes off the disappearance of "Greth Vlogs 5" and the appearance of the mask as simple video errors. He also once again mentions the conversation he had with Tyler a few days prior. Greth also claims that he's feeling pretty tired.
None of this was very reassuring for the players... Later that night, their concerns were heightened when Greth uploaded another video - "heard something outside".
Description
Not a vlog, kind of weirded out. I live in a condo complex so people come and go all the time, but this sounded like it was directly outside my window, and I live on the second floor.
<--- Click for Video Transcript
The video has a very glitchy beginning, looking somewhat similar to a VCR. Greth begins recording in his dark room. It sounds like something is knocking or rattling against his window.
Greth: "...There's something out there."
The video begins corrupting again. What appears to be a face can be briefly seen in the glitchy footage.
Greth: "...Fucking heard it. Can't see shit..."
Summary
- Greth records his room after being awoken by some sounds outside.
Greth has been awoken in the middle of the night after hearing some strange sounds outside. He claims that the sounds were coming from directly outside his window, which is strange because he lives on the second floor of an apartment... Additionally, some players noticed what appears to be face lurking in the darkness as Greth's footage corrupts:
On May 6th, 2018, Greth posted another update - "Greth Vlogs 8".

This video begins with Greth recording himself as he drives.
Greth: "What's up everybody, uh... Just finished another day of work. Still light out for once, holy shit. Umm, heading back to the apartment.... You know, I don't... Sorry, fixing my hair... I don't really know... I don't know what to say at this point, um... because I just feel like... something weird is going on... I- it could just be me. I think maybe it is just me. Um, I'm very nervous, I guess, about this new place. I've only been there for... uh, like two weeks or something, I guess, or a week and a half. So... I think maybe my, uh... jitters are just get- getting the better of me. Sorry about the fucking- blocking the camera, I'm just... Sometimes driving is like the easiest way to get this out because I don't have to focus on what I'm saying as much, I can just drive and go with it. But I feel like something weird is happening... but it's probably just me and it only seems to happen when I'm alone at night and not really... focusing on my surroundings, or... Ah, listen to me, I-I sound fucking crazy. Uhh, I don't know, there's nothing wrong with the apartment I'm just paranoid probably because of nerves, and I think... I'm playing into it, um... There's going to be a bunch of people over tonight both as kind of a housewarming and goodbye party for my... my buddy Ben is leaving for Orlando to go back to college, uh he's uh... gonna try to get into computer sciences and try to be a programmer. Ironically I'm thinking about getting certifications and getting into security, um... computer security, not... (Laughs) not a security guard. Because I can't do GameStop forever. Uh... (Sigh) I... there's just a lot of emotions right now... and, uh... especially without my uh partner, my girlfriend, with me... Uh, I'll be seeing her soon, but just going to that room every night alone is starting to become less enjoyable and more stressful and... (Sigh) I'm starting to wonder if there's just something wrong with me, honestly.... Uh... Yeah..."
The video cuts as the footage glitches out.
Greth: "...We're here. Almost. It's getting dark out. Already. (Sigh)"
The video cuts and glitches out once again. We cut to Greth sitting in his car in his dark garage. The darkness begins closing in on Greth until we can barely see him.
Summary
- Greth acknowledges that something strange is going on, though he isn't entirely sure what it is yet.
- Greth claims that he's currently working at GameStop and that he has a girlfriend.
- Greth says that one of his roommates named Ben is leaving and that his roommates are throwing a party to wish him goodbye.
- Greth can be seen sitting alone in the darkness of his garage.
In the video above, Greth reveals some more details about his personal life. He claims that he's currently working at GameStop and that he has a girlfriend. He also reveals the name of another one of his roommates - Ben. Clearly this cannot be the same Ben that we're all familiar with. However, the fact that Greth had two roommates named Mat and Ben was still somewhat suspicious... Regardless, Greth claims that Ben was about to leave for college and that they were going to be throwing a party later that night to wish him goodbye.
Meanwhile, Greth ponders if there's something wrong with him. Beginning to acknowledge the fact that there are strange things happening to him that he can't quite explain. Concerningly, he can be seen sitting alone in his car at the end of this video while he's slowly blanketed by darkness...
On May 7th, 2018, another concerning video was uploaded to Greth Vlogs - "happy birthday".

NOT ONLY IS THE ORIGIN OF MY THOUGHT UNKNOWN TO ME BUT THE ORIGIN OF MY MOVEMENTS IS EQUALLY HIDDEN I DO NOT KNOW WHY I EXIST

This video begins with a black screen. We hear a sound getting louder as a masked figure suddenly appears. Corruptions ensue as some text briefly flashes on screen:
"TIME IS UP"
The masked figure appears two more times and more text flashes:
"WE KNOW YOUR SECRET"
Summary
- This video features someone wearing an alien mask informing someone that they're aware of their secret.
The video above was clearly not uploaded by Greth. Within it, an unknown figure wearing a silver alien mask can be seen. The players would later dub this individual "The Watcher". The Watcher cryptically warns someone that their time is up and that they're aware of their secret. However, the context of this message is unknown...
Interestingly, this video's description is a quote from a French philosopher named Voltaire.
Shortly after this video was uploaded, a video was also uploaded to Silentdork - "SKMRETURNS".

This video begin on a black screen. Slow, droning music is playing. A voice begins to speak.
(Indecipherable)
"Can you hear me?"
Two sound bites of Max Headroom's laugh plays from SKM's Lunar Children hack.
"Is this bloody thing working?"
(Indecipherable)
"File Corrupted"
Summary
- This video contains a message from SKM as he presumably attempts to make contact with someone.
As the video's title implies, this upload features a message from SKM himself. SKM was last heard from back in 2016 when he was attempting to contact Tyler. In the video above, he's seemingly attempting to once again contact someone.
The description of this video is also a quote from Voltaire. This confirmed that Greth Vlogs was indeed canon to Johnisdead - something that many players weren't entirely convinced of at the time.
Later that night, Greth Vlogs saw another upload - "greth vlogģgghhghhhhhhhhhhhhggggģ".

This video begins similar to a VCR. The entire video has a blue tint to it.
Greth: "(Sigh) So apparently somebody uploaded a YouTube video, um... to my channel. Um... I don't know how that happened. I'm really starting to get stressed out about this-"
The video cuts to a shot of someone driving down a highway. It suddenly cuts again to one of Greth's videos that was used in Jadusable's ARG - 'SAVING ALEX.MP4'. The video corrupts a bit before cutting briefly to another one of Greth's old videos - 'NEWWAVEBOSSANOVA.MP4'. We are shown a brief image of "The Watcher" before the video cuts back to Greth. He says something but there is no audio. We are then shown a very brief clip of 'Unusual'
Summary
- Greth claims that the video "happy birthday" was not uploaded by him and that someone has hacked into his account.
- Several cryptic clips are shown including someone driving down a highway, Greth's old submissions, and The Watcher.
In the video above, Greth seems to be fairly stressed out... He claims that "happy birthday" was not uploaded by him and that someone has hacked into his account. Afterwards, several strange clips play. Most of these are Greth's old submissions throughout the ARG. One of them also contains footage of someone driving down the highway - as well as a brief shot of The Watcher. The Detour Sign in Tyler's yard can also be seen.
On May 8th, 2018, Greth posted another update - "Greth Vlogs 9".

This video begins with Greth recording himself in his room.
Greth: "Uh, hey everybody, uh... Just making a vlog because I did not make any vlogs yesterday, so uh... I figured today would be a good day to do that. Trying not to fall off the wagon. Uh, so to speak. Um, yeah. I'm feeling a lot better. Uhh, woke up today- I actually didn't get a lot of sleep at all. I- you can tell by the... circles under my eyes. But, uh... I'm actually feeling great. Today I... Again, sorry about the lack of videos yesterday. I didn't upload any... I just wasn't in the mood. I had to deal with a lot of stuff yesterday. Um, but, you know... I'm starting to think there's, uh... nothing to be scared of here, and uh... I was probably- just my imagination playing tricks on me before. So... Uh, that's a short one. I will talk to you guys later."
A cipher briefly flashes on screen that reads:
"C O N T R O L"
Summary
- Greth claims he didn't upload any videos yesterday.
- Greth seems to have difficulty sleeping.
- A message that reads "C O N T R O L" briefly flashes on screen.
In the video above, Greth seems extremely tired. He claims that he's having difficulty sleeping - no doubt a side-effect of all the strange occurrences happening around him... He also claims that he didn't upload any videos yesterday, which is odd given the existence of "greth vlogģgghhghhhhhhhhhhhhggggģ". Additionally, as the video ends, a single message flashes on screen - "C O N T R O L", which implies that Greth may be under someone else's influence...
Another video was uploaded on May 10th, 2018 - "Greth Vlogs 10".

This video begins with Greth recording himself while walking outside.
Greth: "Another simple update today. Um... Walking to the store to get some breakfast, or stuff to make breakfast. Uhh, not been sleeping well at all... To the extent that I feel like I'm having sleeping problems again... Um... At this point I'm thinking about just rolling with it, honestly..."
The video cuts forward.
Greth: "I, uh... don't really know."
The video begins corrupting. Whenever the person walking behind Greth comes into view the camera zooms in onto them, sometimes turning green.
Greth: "I mean that's what the, uh... weed is for. Puts me to sleep, but I'm out. And, uh... things have been getting kind of weird around (Indecipherable)"
The last word Greth says is very corrupted and loud. Whenever he says it the camera zooms in on the person who was walking behind him. Greth slows down and turns around towards the direction the person was. He looks back at the camera looking confused.
Greth: "...Was somebody back there? (Laughs)"
As Greth begins to laugh the video stutters. The screen slowly tints purple before ending.
Summary
- Greth is recording himself walking to the store.
- Greth claims that he's having sleeping issues. However, he's taking weed to help with this.
- A strange green-tinted figure seems to be following Greth from afar.
- The footage briefly glitches out as Greth turns purple.
In the video above, Greth informs the players that he's still suffering from insomnia. Though he's taking weed to help with this, it doesn't seem to be doing him much good... While he's walking to the store, there appears to be a green-tinted entity following him not too far behind:
Additionally, as the video comes to an end, the footage briefly corrupts as Greth seemingly turns purple:
Greth's decline continued on May 12th, 2018 with the upload of "Greth Vlogs 11".

This video begins with Greth lying on his couch looking tired.
Greth: "Sleep... doesn't really exist anymore. I kinda just... continue to exist.... in reality. No escape. Sleep doesn't exist anymore. At all."
The video cuts ahead.
Greth: "So, obviously... trying to make it clear that I, uh... I am at my wit's end. ...I wonder why... my body is rejecting sleep so much. Starting to think there's a reason.... Well, I uh... I don't know about any of that but... I was, uh, talking to Tyler again... Trying to explain some of the things that's been going on. He doesn't, uh... seem to understand... yet. But I think soon he will."
The video cuts once more.
Greth: "...I think I'm losing myself. Just... I'm going nuts here. (Laughs) Fuck..."
The video corrupts. We see what appears to be "The Watcher" once again in darkness.
Summary
- Greth is still suffering from insomnia.
- Greth claims that he was talking to Tyler once again.
In the video above, Greth makes it clear that his insomnia has worsened - so much so that he now believes that his body is actively rejecting sleep. He also claims that he was speaking to Tyler. This is once again most likely referring to an out-of-character conversation.
After this upload, there was about a week's worth of silence from Greth. However, on May 19th, 2018, he suddenly uploaded once again - "Escape".

This is video begins with Greth walking through an airport. Various announcements can be hard over the intercom. We cut to a shot of an airplane on a landing strip before cutting once more to Greth now sitting aboard the plane. The video ends with some slight corruptions.
Summary
- Greth is seen boarding a plane and departing for somewhere.
Here, we see Greth boarding a plane. His destination and goals are unknown...
After this upload, there was a lull in activity. Around this point, both Johnisdead.com and Lunarchildren.com went offline - something that was a bit concerning considering they were presumably meant to be in TheArchiveGuy's care...
It wouldn't be until July 28th, 2018 that the players would receive another update. On this date, an enigmatic video titled "Greth Vlogs 5" was uploaded to Greth Vlogs:

This video begins with someone moving through a dark house. We can see a skull-like object on the wall but it is difficult to tell if it is a mask or merely a poster. The video tints purple and corrupts as the person recording reaches a doorway. We see Tyler sitting at his computer. Tyler turns around and the video ends.
Summary
- This video contains footage of someone sneaking up on Tyler while he's sitting at his computer.
The video above contains footage of someone lurking behind Tyler in his home while he sits at his computer. The name "Greth Vlogs 5" is very suspect and the context for this video is still a mystery...
The strange updates continued a week later on August 5th, 2018, albeit in a rather unexpected location - Decoy.link. As a reminder, this website was the one that Zack Nelson initially found himself trapped in upon his ascension. Thanks to SKM, he briefly held control of the site before it was presumably taken away from him. It's also worth noting that this site was structured as though it were a blog of sorts belonging to a strange company called "WireTalk".
Regardless, on August 5th, Decoy.link updated with a new blog post that was simply titled "soon.". This post was accompanied with a video titled "Track2.mp4".
This video mainly consisted of an error screen with text that read "WE SEE YOU. YOU CANNOT BE HELPED.". It also featured distorted footage of someone walking at night and some corrupted train tracks. Unfortunately, just like "Greth Vlogs 5", the significance and context of this video is unknown...
Thankfully, the players would receive a much more traditional update later that month on August 16th, 2018 in the form of "Greth Vlogs 12: General Update".

This video begins with Greth walking through some woods.
Greth: "Hey, everybody. Um... making a video just to keep in touch, it's been a while. A whole lot has happened, uh... I've just been travelling around, hiking."
The video is already glitching a bit, cutting to black a few times. We are shown some brief footage of the woods. The audio seems to have some slight distortion. We cut back to Greth.
Greth: "Trying to figure myself out... keep away from that apartment."
We are shown more brief footage of the woods.
Greth: "Uh, that's what I'm doing right now, I'm in the middle of a hike right now. As you can see it's very beautiful around here."
The video cuts to a corrupted shot of an old boat on the back of a truck.
Greth: "Uh, not much life out here to really see or anything like that. Just, uh... me and nature. You know..."
The video begins stuttering more as the distorted sounds come back.
Greth: "...But it is hot."
The video goes through several corruptions. It is difficult to make out what these images are. We cut back to Greth where we can see Tyler falling over in the background next to the "Detour Sign" while coughing. The video corrupts further before ending.
Summary
- Greth reveals that he's been hiking recently in an attempt to figure himself out and stay away from the apartment.
- Near the end of the video, Tyler can be seen teleporting nearby alongside the Detour Sign.
The video above reveals why Greth was seen boarding a plane. He's been on a sort of hiking trip in an attempt to stay away from his apartment and figure himself out. While hiking through some rural Florida woods, he suddenly spots Tyler warping in nearby alongside the Detour Sign. This implies that Tyler touched it once again. However, this time it seemingly warped him significantly further away...
On August 18th, 2018, a mysterious video was uploaded to Greth Vlogs - "WAKE WAKE".

This video begins with Tyler laying on his bed looking tired. When he faces the camera the video corrupts badly. Tyler makes a quiet, raspy sound and the video begins corrupting. We can faintly see what appears to be Tyler struggling overlaying corrupted footage. The video ends with Tyler's arms falling back down to the bed as if he had fallen asleep again.
Summary
- This video seemingly contains footage of Tyler struggling before falling asleep.
This short video seems to contain footage of Tyler struggling before falling asleep. However, once again, the context of this situation and why exactly it was uploaded to Greth's channel is unknown...
On August 25th, 2018, Greth uploaded another concerning video - "experimentations".

This video begin with some slight corruption overlaying Greth. He is in his garage talking to the camera.
Greth: "Hey, it's been a while. Uh, I tried to run away from my problems, and uh... sometimes you find out you can't do that as easily as you thought... So I'm taking a different approach now. There's a lot of things you don't understand that I do now- I do now."
The video corrupts and stutters several times.
Greth: "But soon everyone will get it, man. Uhh... I'm about to do some exploring, so I'm going to take you with me."
The video cuts to Greth lighting a pipe. He exhales some smoke and laughs as he video stutters. Greth continues smoking. We see him stare into the camera as the video gets darker and darker. The video cuts to some distorted footage of Greth looking into the camera as some slow music plays in the background. We hear what sounds like someone either entering the room or moving around within it. Greth quickly flicks his lighter for some light and looks around worriedly. At the end of the video a loud sound plays as a faint glitchy image appears.
Summary
- Greth claims that he's no longer running from his problems.
- Greth claims that he now does things that the players don't understand.
- Greth seemingly takes some drugs as the video goes dark. He becomes frightened as it seems as though someone else is in the room with him.
In this video, Greth seems somewhat frightening and malicious. He claims that he's no longer running from his problems and that there's now "a lot of things you don't understand that I do now". After this, he claims he's about to do some exploring as he presumably takes some drugs. The video ends as Greth's room goes dark. He flicks his lighter, frightened, as he seemingly hears someone in the dark room with him... Additionally, the tags on this video imply that someone is present with Greth - someone who the players may be familiar with...
A few days later, the players would finally hear back from Tyler. On August 28th, 2018, Tyler uploaded "A guest" to Silentdork:
Description
I had this other video I planned on uploading that I recorded before this that was pretty important, it featured me figuring out something pretty important about that sign in my yard. But something fucked it up and I am trying to figure out how to fix it (maybe the sign itself? idk) but this is the guy I talked about in that video who was gonna come hang out with me who knew a bit about the various cult doings in the area.

This video begins with Tyler sitting in his room. He is speaking to Greth as vaporwave plays in the background.
Tyler: "You know what I don't think that, uh... the people following my Youtube channel actually know about?"
Greth: "What's that?"
Tyler: "My personal religion."
Tyler holds up a book and shows the camera. It's a bit difficult to read, however.
Tyler: "Odin. ...Man. Have I told you about the runes that I'm studying? The Armanen Futharkh?"
Greth: "No..."
Tyler: "It's 18 runes that correspond to, uh... Man, this music is like really religious for what I'm talking about. (Laughs) It's 18 runes that correspond to the 18 runes that Odin talks about in the Rúnatal."
The vaporwave ends.
Tyler: "Oh, well just cut off on me why don't you. (Laughs) But, uh..."
The vaporwave begins playing once again.
Tyler: "Okay..."
The video cuts Tyler leaning back in a chair.
Tyler: "Who cares."
Greth: "Okay (Laughs)"
The video cuts once again. Tyler holds his bullet necklace in his hand.
Tyler: "Man... So... Do you know anything about the Lunar Children?"
Greth: "Uh... I mean, I was reading about them on the website... And watching the videos."
Tyler: "Do you know about what happened on their uh, big 4/23 incident of like two years ago?"
Greth: "Is that where they drowned the kid? Or..."
Tyler: "Oh no, that was like... almost two decades ago."
Greth: "Oh..."
Tyler: "...In like I think 2002? Or..."
Greth: "Oh was this- Oh was this... the house fire?"
Tyler: "Uh, no that was my uh, that was- that was my friend, John..."
Greth: "Oh..."
Tyler: "Uh..."
Greth: "No, tell me more about it."
Tyler: "I'm asking about it cause all I know is that, uh... For some reason they have this like fucking fetish for me, like I don't understand in the grand scheme why specifically they require me for something that they're trying to do, but I guess they like failed too many times in a row? Due to I guess as far as I'm concerned, going off what information I can find, some like unseen forces keep preventing them from, uh, getting their job done. And I guess their, uh, big fucking deity decided to fucking eat them or something? I don't fucking know because, like... There was like this 'oh shit' meltdown post and, uh, apparently after that everybody at that building that they had in Ohio just vanished. Everybody that like regularly attended suddenly was all on like a missing persons list..."
Greth: "...Well, I mean... I know there's like, uh... There are people on the internet that I can, uh... introduce you to who know a lot more about this than I do... And I think they, uh... have been trying to contact you for some time."
Tyler: "Well, I mean, I got like a lot of people trying to contact me all the time. A lot of the time in Spanish. But, uh..."
Greth: "No this is different. I mean it's not just the random YouTube comments sections, it's uh... There's a, uh, Discord. Do you know what that is?"
Tyler: "Uh, I..."
Greth: "It's like a... It's kinda like a gamer Skype thing?"
Tyler: "That sounds... pretty gay. But, uh... (Laughs) But yeah I do have a Discord account."
Greth: "Okay..."
Tyler: "But, uh... Yes."
Greth: "Okay. Because they, uh... They first contacted me because I was involved in something a number of years ago relating to a kid. Uh... There was like this website and I made some videos that helped some people, um... It might have something to do with what's going on."
Tyler: "...What was the website?"
Greth: "Uhm... Youshouldnthavedonethat.net."
The video and audio stutter as Tyler makes a strange noise. During the stuttering an image of BEN and an image of Regiminis can be seen. The video cuts back in with Tyler looking through a box of vaporwave cassettes, presumably back right after Tyler talked about Odin, considering the book is seen nearby.
Tyler: "What should I put on...? Pick one. Should I put on, uh... 'Eternal Desolation', 'Equip', or uh... I forget what this is actually called but it's by R23X."
Greth: "I dunno."
Tyler: "Uhh, just pick one at random."
Greth picks 'Eternal Desolation'
Tyler: "Okay."
Tyler puts the cassette into the player. He leans back and nearly drops some cassettes.
Tyler: "Oh shit."
The video cuts back to the previous scene after Greth mentions YSHDT.net.
Greth: "(Ok)ay."
Tyler: "Uh, yeah... I've never heard of that website."
Greth: "Alright, well, uh..."
Tyler: "Well, actually... Uh, the- That phrase sounds a little familiar. But, uh... Actually, I don't- I don't think I've ever, uh... I don't think I've ever been to that website, no."
Greth: "Okay... Well it's, uh... It's a little... (Sigh) Actually it's- I'm having trouble remembering if it's new or old..."
Tyler: "...Oh, now I remember where- where I heard the phrase, because actually, uh... That guy, José, um... Or the 'archive guy' that's apparently on the same server that he salvaged out of that, uh... fishery building."
Greth: "Okay... Is that server somewhere nearby? Or..."
Tyler: "It's actually at his house. Well I mean I'm assuming it's at his house. I've never been to his house, I don't actually know where he lives. I know he must live close or else he couldn't have gone to physically go get it like he said he did."
Greth: "So... Who's the original server owner?"
Tyler: "I guess the Lunar Children collectively. I don't know specifically... Like, okay-"
Greth: "Wait, so... Wait who's- Who's Patrem then?"
Tyler: "I've worked out that Patrem was a guy named Hank, actually... Who I guess was involved in a lot of occult stuff and for whatever reason started doing it, like, out of his own building... Like, I guess like he used to own that fishery? And I guess back in like the late, late, late 90's to early 2000's he started running his scheme out of there? Like, I guess what went on to become the Lunar Children. Whatever he was doing was like a precursor to it, maybe? I don't know, or maybe it was? I don't know, this is just like collective word around town I can get, and like... bits of like public record information. But, uh... Basically, um... Yeah, the guy owned that fishery- I don't know what the, like, legality deal on the property is right now. I kinda- and this is like bordering on conspiracy theory tier thought, but like I have for years now kinda assumed there was something fucked about the local police force. Um... And now I have reason honestly to believe that they... A lot of the police force is probably like directly involved with this cult... Because I guess at a time they were actually a pretty big pervasive local thing until a lot of, like, the big players moved north over to Ohio... But that's like the most of what I've managed to establish just doing the reading up and talking to people local that want to talk"
Summary
- This video contains footage of Tyler and Greth discussing the Moon Children and Lunar Children.
- Greth offers to invite Tyler to the Internet Detectives Discord server. Tyler reveals that he indeed has a Discord account.
- Tyler reveals that he now worships Odin and that he's studying the Armanen Futhark.
- Tyler reveals that he's been in contact with TheArchiveGuy, whose real name is actually José.
- Tyler claims he's never visited Youshouldnthavedonethat.net but he recognizes the name from the Lunar Children servers.
The video above features a fairly casual conversation between Tyler and Greth. However, when exactly it was recorded is a bit of a mystery.
The description claims that Tyler had a separate video recorded where he found out something important regarding the Detour Sign. In that video, he supposedly mentioned that Greth was going to come hang out and chat with him about the Lunar Children. This implies that the two met at an earlier date - possibly when Tyler accidentally teleported in-front of him in "Greth Vlogs 12: General Update". This implies that the order of events looks something like this:
- Greth hikes somewhere near Tyler's home.
- Tyler warps in-front of Greth via the Detour Sign.
- Greth and Tyler agree to hang out at some point.
- Tyler experiments with the Detour Sign in a separate unseen video.
- Greth and Tyler hang out as seen in the video above.
However, when all of these events took place in relation to Greth's more recent uploads like "experimentations" is unknown...
Regardless, the video's actual contents contain many interesting details. It starts off with Tyler revealing his current religion - Odin. He claims that he's currently studying runes and the Armanen Futharkh.
Afterwards, Tyler and Greth begin discussing the Lunar Children. Tyler reveals that he's been attempting to do even more research on them and that he's even been visiting Lunarchildren.com. He also implies that he's been in contact with TheArchiveGuy, whose real name is actually José. During his research, Tyler learned that the Lunar Children were largely wiped out in 2016. He also learned a decent amount about the cult's origins - specifically how they were formed by Hank in 1998 and were initially operating out of his Fishery.
Greth proceeds to ask Tyler about Youshouldnthavedonethat.net - something that suddenly causes the video to glitch out. Afterwards, Tyler claims that he never visited the site. However, the name is familiar to him because it was supposedly found on the Lunar Children servers. This is possibly referencing YSHDT.com, which was originally owned by the Lunar Children. Greth also attempts to get Tyler to join a Discord server - presumably the Internet Detectives. Tyler seems a bit uneasy about the idea, though he admits that he does have a Discord account.
Also, the tags on this video read "hidden in plain sight Kevi", which seems to suggest that Regiminis is lurking somewhere nearby...
Unfortunately, as the year went on, Greth's situation only worsened... On October 11th, 2018, he uploaded another ominous video - "never sleeping".

This video begins with Greth sitting in his house reading a book titled 'Moon Magic'. A trippy song with vocals is playing in the background. The video briefly fades into a clip of him lying on his bed. The video then quickly flickers between an image of "The Watcher" seen in earlier Greth Vlogs and a shot of Greth looking at the camera menacingly.
We are shown another shot of Greth lying on his bed while struggling to sleep. The video cuts out before showing a hand slowly grabbing Greth's face as the music stutters. We are once again shown a shot of the menacing looking Greth accompanied by ominous music before the video ends.
Summary
- This video contains cryptic footage of Greth reading a book titled "Moon Magic".
- Ominous footage plays, including a clip of The Watcher and a hand grabbing Greth's face.
This video emphasizes Greth's continued insomnia. Within it, we can see him reading a book titled "Moon Magic". Afterwards, The Watcher can be seen once again followed by a menacing shot of Greth. All of this is painting Greth as not only in danger - he may be the danger, given how malicious he appears.
Regardless, the players were fearing for the well-being of their fellow player. Hoping to cure his insomnia, the player Dense submitted the "Goron Lullaby" - a song from The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask that puts some characters to sleep. Later that night, the players found that their submission had been accepted, as another video was uploaded to Greth Vlogs - "J J S K K N V G H".

This video begins with Greth lying in bed, yawning. The video slowly corrupts, making his face look like its frowning. The video cuts to black before showing footage of a purple moon. Images of a maniacally smiling Greth occasionally cut in along with shots of him wearing the white mask from before.
Summary
- This video shows Greth finally falling asleep.
- After Greth falls asleep, he slowly distorts. He's later seen laughing maliciously while tinted-purple and holding the white mask from before.
The players had made a terrible mistake.
In hindsight, it had become clear. Greth's insomnia was not natural. Instead, it had been afflicted upon him by an entity that the players were all too familiar with - Patrem. If Greth's distorted purple coloration didn't make it clear enough, the text about "a new vessel" and "father thing children anew" most certainly did.
Greth was Patrem's new vessel.
