#feel free to shoot asks if anything is confusing or you'd like introspection

[findjackwalten]

i saw some of your posts about the recent update to the website and i saw a mention of how the character anthony has gone over theories on how ghosts work in the story’s universe, would you happen to know where that info is on the site or if there is a post that compiles that info?

Yes! Anthony has a whole section on findjackwalten under /brightonghosts where he has pages on 'known' ghost interactions and his own speculations.

lets run through them briefly

/ghosthaunt where we get an introduction to what ghosts are and why they might exist. There's a paragraph where a therapist discusses the relationship between the dead and the living which is really interesting to apply to the series as a whole

/endghost, which is a seemingly joke page until you scroll to the bottom and it drops this really harrowing line: 'haha just kidding, I have no idea. There's never been any well-known instance where one has to defeat or neutralize an Un-Dead being' which is TERRIFYING to imply

/ghosttalk, where there's an in-depth perspective on interaction between the dead and the living shown through a man using sentimental objects and paper to communicate with his dead wife. It's really interesting to see the process described as ritual-like, and the ghosts being almost non-sentient. They seem to exist as vaccums of emotion and presence depending on the circumstance. On this page we see pages Ferrel's wife is claimed to have written on, deciphered here:

/poker. the page currently has a tip-off to find /rosemarysartroom. The original page used to reply to the prompt 'can I play poker with a ghost', saying "No, it's not possible to play poker with a ghost, they're dead, after all."

and finally, 'can a ghost kill me?' which leads to /missing, the page that the first version of the site that functioned as a missing poster for jack used to have as a link-in to contact if you had found Jack Walten. spooky.

I would definately reccomend poking around yourself. These are the only links on Anthony's section that seem to directly promise ghost-related content but the whole website is obviously full of them LOL. Anthony is also a fun character.
