Alright, so I'm starting off my research with the Quiet, because I'm still thinking about Marianne and Neil. I found the blog "And When the Sky Was Opened" (found here). It seems to support my "slowly fading" theory. It seems like the people in that blog disappeared fairly quickly too, and more of them. And the notebook disappearing but the blog staying in tact makes me think that everything that was directly linked to the person disappears, but not things made by others. Which could explain why my blog was the same.
It still doesn't really make any sense to me, but I think I'm forming some theories about the Fears. They never act exactly the same way twice. So it could be that they change to match the individual. It would make sense. If their goal is to scare people (though that's probably not their goal. I doubt anyone would be able to figure out their goals), everyone is afraid of different things. So repeating the exact same routine wouldn't freak everyone out.
That would also sort of explain why they only attack certain people. Some people talk about each Fear having "territories" that they work in. I think that's true, but in a more metaphorical sense. They have specific groups of people that they attack. Which would explain why there's evidence of multiple Fears here on one campus.
And speaking of the campus, I went around and took pictures today. I'd upload them, but the Internet here is slow and they're kind of boring. I especially took pictures of that closet door next to Professor Blakemore's office.
I will post if anything interesting appears.
This post has the best theory I've seen on why the same Fear seems to act differently towards each victim. That makes a lot of sense. It also makes things harder for people like us.
