    It’s been suggested we all introduce ourselves. It’s not an imperative, required thing, just be nice since we are #community. And there’s no template, just share whatever you want about yourself?

    Sure, why not? Everyone calls me Blondie. I look a lot younger than I am. I live in Wales so far, far away from most of you. I work part time in a burger restaurant, but really I’m a writer – or trying to be. I’ve written a psychological horror for teenagers and I’m working on getting an agent. I have two cats who are my babies and I make no apology for that. I really like films/tattoos/doughnuts/sloths/country music/the paranormal. Any questions, just shoot.

    I thought it would be a good idea since some of us are not in LA closer to the experience and to the people…thanks for starting this @nate31464!

    My name is Alejandra but friends call me Ale (Ah-Lay); born in Tijuana, Mexico and resident in the US since I was 9 (I am currently 34). I work in administration at a roofing company. I moved from CA to AZ in January of 2014. I came across Tension from following ‘Blackout’, which lead me to listen to a podcast from El Paso Horror Society which THEN lead me to go on their Facebook page and eventually find a post from them about TTE. It seemed mysterious and I got intrigued, so far I love it. Interests are: anything horror, anything that has to do with whales and the ocean, painting, hiking, and off road race cars. Just a bit of everything.

      Liberty(Libby), Vallance(she had a stroke and lists a bit, so I’ve taken to calling her Off-balance Vallance), Creamcicle(Creamy, Little Buddy Number Three), Bella(Bella Donna), Sabrina(Bri), Ginger(not worthy of a nickname IMO), Sweet Pea(definitely my grandmother’s baby), Goldy(named after a local car dealership with the most obnoxious jingle), Sissy(a beautiful black long-haired we thought was female, but we were mistaken). It’s actually nine now. Sorry. She’s a sucker for strays. And they’re all inside. We have Gray outside, and he eats every day so I guess technically ours. They’re wonderful animals.

    Hello, @nate31464 Yes, there is a sense of community here. Welcome and would love to hear a little bit about you when you feel you want to jump into your own thread, haha! (EDIT: OOPS. You seem to have joined in as I was typing this! Ha!)

    I am Russell. I live in Los Angeles and work as an editor… mainly working on children’s movies and programs. My favorite genre is horror, though. During the last few Halloween seasons, I have helped create “haunts” for local charities.
    I like scaring people and being scared by them.

    As @mike mentioned, I am part of the My Haunt Life site and podcast team.
    And, Mike is completely wrong. Kit Kats are better than Snickers.

      I think Snickers and Kit Kats both have their place (in my belly, mwahaha). What I love most about Kit Kats is that you can use them as a straw to drink your coffee through…

      Wafer biscuit covered in chocolate? We have two types- the regular (2 or 4 fingers) and the chunky (1 big fat finger). Either way, you can bite both ends off and suck your coffee through and it goes all yummy and mushy…

      See, @mike… there are areas in which you are naive. If you do an internet search for “coffee and kit kats” various things come up, including the fact that there was a limited edition release of coffee-flavored kit kats!
      @blondiecamps, I personally do not drink coffee so I have not experimented with the joys of combining the two things… but I get it. πŸ˜‰

      BTW, apparently the most efficient dunk of a Kit Kat is one that lasts exactly 4 seconds.

    Hi I’m Neil. I am an independent horror filmmaker out of Los Angeles, California with 3 short films (The Magician, A Shadow Fell, and Sleepless) all available online. I am currently editing my fourth currently titled Inked: A Prologue which should have an October release and will guide iNK Films to our first feature length. I also run the site We Are Indie Horror (www.weareindiehorror.com). WAIH is an independent horror community that spans the entire globe in efforts to connect and unite the independent horror arts. My roommate and myself started the site about a year and a half ago and have grown immensely ever since. We now span all social media platforms including a YouTube series and a podcast titled Tea Time of Terror. I am incredibly passionate about all things horror and love anything scary. I found Tension when a friend, I believe @kasch, posted the initial puzzle back in February. This has been one wild and crazy journey but I would not trade it for anything else. I listen to mostly Rock music of all kinds spanning from classic rock such as The Beatles and Pink Floyd to today’s metal such as Slipknot and Machinehead. I work a 3 jobs to pay my bills while running both projects so I am usually incredibly busy and always doing something. Anything else you want to know feel free to ask.

I live in Saint Paul, MN but I did make it out to LA for an extended weekend last month and had a couple of Tension-related adventures which were awesome. Since it’s summer and I’m not teaching/working full time I’ve been doing some traveling, designing shows, and pursuing other artistic things, and have done a couple of paintings for Tension participants. I also love cats, I have three – Sansa, Asha, and Ygritte.

    I work in a data center at Vandenberg AFB, so if you hear about a launch I was probably working.

    I have a fiance who is registered on the Forums but isn’t active on them. He gets his updates from me mostly. :) I also have 2 cats and 2 bunnies and some fish. The cats are named Rome and Mama and the bunnies are Bun Jovi and River.

    I like long walks in the dark with no sense of direction. I’m looking for a horror event that knows how to have a good time and can take charge when necessary. If you think that is you then please throw a bag over my head and drag me down a hallway.

I spend most of my time in the hospital or at the doctor’s (I’m also very very ill). I’m heavily into the occult, and esoterica (think hermeticism and such). I just like spooky shit, hence being here! I want to be more active in the forums but I’m playing catch up currently with the most recent happenings. I play ukulele and make a hobby of things varying from the study of cryptozoology to (preparations for) housing pet snails. Before becoming ill, I was a hobo/backpacker type person! I live in Maryland currently and my skills include charming animals and breaking into my own house (I lock myself out a lot).

    My name is Kaidyn, I live in Idaho, so progressing in Tension is going to be interesting.
    I have been an avid follower of psychological horror since I read my father’s collection of HP Lovecraft and Clark Ashton Smith when I was young.
    I first found Tension through the SCP Foundation’s forums a few days ago, and have been trying to catch up, gathering as much information as possible.
    For me, having total control of myself is very important, I joined Tension to see if they can manage to shake that from me. To further this, I am diving into Tension as much as possible; after all, “You only get what you put in.”
    On a more general note, I am an avid computer enthusiast who builds custom rigs for commission, I have been fighting in a sport called Belegarth for 2 years now, and I have been the DM for a Pathfinder/Cyberpunk/whatever-system group for about 4 years.

    Hello I’m Matt, I am new to this and playing quite a bit of catch up. I read the recent article on Blumhouse http://www.blumhouse.com/2016/03/03/the-wild-and-frightening-events-behind-the-tension-experience/ and got started on this path.

    BTW Megan, great timeline you put together. I’m finding it very useful for getting up to speed.

    Thank you!

      Thanks! There are some errors that I’ve found thanks to the one that Tension created yesterday so I’ll be doing revisions and stuff, as well as adding things as we go forward. I’m a huge documentation & research nerd.

    About me: I threw myself into the Tension Experience way back when, and promptly got too busy to participate. I was happy to recently read an article about some things the future might hold for it, so I’m trying to get involved again as time permits.

    I’m a 43 yo father of 2, lover of all things Halloween. My wife and I already have our tickets to both of the Halloween conventions happening just around the corner. I’ve lived in SoCal my whole life, predominately in the OC. A couple of years ago I accidentally stumbled upon Alone and since that time I have had my understanding of all the wonderful and interesting things available to participate in around here expanded to capacity. I am sincerely excited to have the opportunity to delve more deeply into what this experience has to offer, and what I can offer unto it.

    On the subject of deeper things, I filled out my questionnaire some time ago, and way more honestly than was likely healthy or intelligent. I wish I’d kept a copy because I hardly remember what I put in there anymore. I can assume with some confidence that it’ll come back to haunt me in some way I didn’t foresee.

    Thanks to all those who have come before me, devoting of themselves to create and post timelines and other information. I’ve been trying to catch up on the forums but the sheer volume has made doing so a daunting task. Were it not for their work I’d likely have felt it already too late to jump in and just given up. Thank you again.

    Here’s to the devil you know, and the devil you don’t, and all the details in between.

      Welcome! Glad to have you! I’m fairly new myself, but if there’s anything I can do to help, let me know. There’re a lot of plot events occurring right now, so you’re probably gonna be best off to start out with the current lore and mythos, and then go back when you’ve caught up to what’s going on now. Have fun, and feel the Tension! Glory be!

    Glory be? (i’m not quite sure what that means tbh)

      Who were you in Of Mice and Men?!? And you and Kasch are old buddies, huh? And right in the OOA’s target audience, too: show business fellas, and in horror to boot.

    Hey everyone! My name is Spencer. I came across Tension on Twitter (follow me , and decided to begin on this journey because I’m looking for a thrill in my life. Indianapolis, where I’m from, seems so far away from literally every interesting thing in the world that even being on the periphery of something as exciting as this bumps up my life a few notches. Otherwise, I work in the garment industry as a stylist and sometimes textile designer and I spend far too much time tending my Twitter account @TheS_Squared. Beyond that, I spend my time looking for cool things at local thrift stores and reading.

      @ssquared I am reading two books right now and interestingly enough, both are collections of short stories/ essays. When you are busy it is nice to be able to pick a book up for a few minutes and read a whole story before going on with the rest of the day.

      I am currently reading:

      Arguably: Essays by Christopher Hitchens

      and

      Make Something Up: Stories you Can’t Unread by Chuck Palahniuk
