Story Plot

The following clips are raw footage excerpts from Alex Kralie. A college friend of mine. In 2006, Alex was in the process of shooting his student film, entitled Marble Hornets. Over the three months that this took place, his film crew complained of his increasing levels of stress and irritability. Near the end of shooting, Alex halted production indefinitely and dropped the unfinished project. He told me it was due to the "unworkable conditions" on his set, which was less than a mile away from his house. I asked what he planned to do with the countless number of tapes he had filled. "Burn them." Being a film student myself, I hated to see all of his work go to waste. And after some coercing he agreed to give them to me. Under the condition that I never mention it to him again. Soon after, Alex transferred to another school and I haven't seen him since. At the time, I was too unnerved to look through the tapes, and eventually forgot about them. A few days ago I found them filed away in the back of my closet. After three years and zero contact with Alex, I have decided to look through them. All the tapes are unnumbered and missing timestamps. Other than taking place in the summer of 2006, it is impossible to determine the exact order or date of each. Should I find anything in any of them I will upload it to keep as a permanent record.
