Someone should analyze that song/poem from the aamfp website

I can't even access the website. It gives me a "403-forbidden".

Probably they're currently working on something on the website

Hey, I'm new here. Been checking the forum almost every day for news, but thought I'd finally make an account.

Just saw the official site update. Sounds as though the kids in the trailer might be the ghosts of the twins mentioned in the poem. It talks about calling their spirits, using "candlelight" and "tables tipped". I know that "table tipping" is a form of paranormal communication, so I guess the parents (Mandus?) were trying to at least contact them, if not revive them somehow.

I came, I saw. Very interesting stuff...

[Hardarm]

you believe FG reveal release date some week before leaving? or release one or two days before?

I think they wouldn't be so stupid to announce the date near the actual release day.

That house... maybe it´s an orphanage...

Welcome!

Nice thoughts, especially the "tables tipped" thing, didn't catch that. That's about what I'm thinking too, whether or not the phantasms in the trailer (if we can assume they are such) are actually real and a result of Oswald's meddling in the occult or simply figments of his imagination (maybe tied into sanity?) seems impossible to guess at right now.

Dan did confirm in an interview that there would be other people (codename "civilians" as he put it) in the game, but the humanoids in the trailer don't seem to act like human beings. They way they walk past the hallway(s) is VERY reminiscent of J-horror esque phantoms: popping up and disappearing again. That's why I'm holding to the idea that they are ghosts of some sort.

Having the children linked to sanity would be really cool. To ACTUALLY hallucinate humanoids would be terrifying. Although, seeing as they are animated and everything, they'd have to appear at only set locations, and a lack of sanity can happen anywhere (I'm guessing).

And yeah, the way they appear in the trailer is very sinister. Reminds me of how Alma would appear in F.E.A.R. Really creepy. I'm a sucker for that kind of thing in horror media, though. I love subtlety; phantoms simply strolling across doorways and such.

If that's true, not only do we have pig monsters to worry about, but ghosts and/or reanimated children too.
