Gee I wonder if the not-alcohol alcohol everyone drinks has something to do it.

Planchett seems like he's "that guy" that you'd think would be in on this whole weird Innsmouth-type conspiracy in these sort of stories but it turns out that he's actually one of the least-corrupted characters in the whole mess.

It's kinda ironic he doesn't remember the twine man because barricading himself into the shop didn't work so good last time at protecting him from monstrous undead horrors.

I re-read this book so far and I kinda skimmed over the fact that apparently something is heating the floor under Zane's shop. That's not something that was really used in small buildings back then.

You'd think that it'd be a bit more scandalous that he had Iris spend the night, given this is depression-era America.

Why would he think he killed Maris to make himself afraid? My assumption would be that Maris and I were attacked, I fled, Maris fought.

I still don't get why Zane is convinced he did it when he has drawings of the worms coming out of the forest in his notebook apparently, found the notebook but found no apparent weapon at his place (nor was there one at the scene which he saw), and knows that Maris was a great big dude who could've broken him in two even if he waited and surprised him, nevermind that from his notes other than his investigation into his memory loss he seems to act like he usually does in his 'lost' time. I mean maybe he thinks the worms in the book are a hallucination or something, but I'd have a hard time thinking anyone in the same situation would jump to the conclusion they stabbed a dude to death for no reason and somehow didn't even get defensive wounds.

I know the answer is "because then there's no story" but you kinda have to wonder why Zane doesn't just sell off the shop, pocket the money, and get the gently caress out of this weird town that is making him forget murders and being attacked by flesh-ripping zombie ghosts. I mean, getting his inheritance cleared up and transferred to his name kept him in town for the first book. He doesn't have a great reason to stick around now other than solving the obviously incredibly dangerous Scooby-Doo mystery. Zane's not really a totally rational actor, but he's afraid of the correct things.

I'm more along the lines on the mayor being in on it if he knows it or not. The hollow face events probably really happened, with the shocker at the end being whatever was done to Zane to make him forget.

I would imagine he got that in the forest during his trip with Maris. He already forgot the gash on his head from the first book. How you'd forget a gross likely painful open-looking wound like that on a daily basis I dunno; I mean the cut on his head at least had the benefit of having been healed.

It kinda comes off to me that Wadsworth -wants- to believe he did it for some reason. Despite the 'lost' journal that indicates he was attacked by a loving skin-flaying skeleton, and seems to have sketches of the titular "angleworms" crawling out of the forest? Nevermind he somehow got a laceration on his back and no weapon was present at the scene, nor could he have laid a hand on Maris if he even wanted to? Wadsworth is obviously hosed in the head/severely OCD/unreliable narrator but I don't see how you wouldn't come to the conclusion you and Maris were attacked by something in the woods. I mean, even if I was paranoid as poo poo I'd be more scared of a creepy unknown monster in the woods that apparently attacked and killed my friend and wounded me than try to create an elaborate story in my head about how I could have rationalized and then executed my friend's murder?

So I imagine Mr. Novacek will be accused of Maris' murder and it'll be up to Zane to solve the Scooby Doo mystery because he "knows" he did it instead.

I dunno where he's getting the "You don't know yourselves" thing from. I could see someone being like, "Seriously, what in the gently caress us up with a TOWN having unique funeral rites?" but eh?

I'm still not getting how violently assaulting someone for no reason would be the conclusion you'd jump to for "I need to be really really scared". And this is with me willfully ignoring the fact that he's already revealed the stupid 3-fanged worm things that obviously did it.

Most of the stuff Zane saw in his dream where he "figured everything out" and here in the cave is sacred geometry.

Or Zane's onto something with "patterns" being a way to kinda deal with whatever the hell is under Broodhollow.

Rand Brittain posted:I think the problem is more that they're trying to cope with whatever the horror is and not really bothering to try and find out what the hell is going on or to deal with it on a broader scale. This is pretty much the problem with most of this horror stuff in that...you could just goddamn leave. Zane I think might be hosed since he was having nightmares about Broodhollow before he even knew the place existed so maybe when it has its hooks in you, you're pretty much pot-committed.

The bats were weird because the Bottlefly Boys literally seemed to see them AS normal bats while it was all going on. Zane yells that they're the size of cars, and one of them turns around and laughs and says, "If they were, we'd be in trouble!" Meanwhile they certainly as gently caress knew that the angleworm wasn't normal.

Planchett is such a strongwilled rear end and a bit at odds with the town zeitgeist (he may be for tradition but he wants the town to expand and be profitable/noticeable) that he's probably one of the only really indoctrinated broodhollowans that will likely end up being a good guy.
