'sup /x/. It's Iodine Room Guy from the thread last night. With the suddenly dimming lights and scratching noise? Status update time, since all the roads are frozen over here and I'll be damned if I'm going out there. I went to bed last night, and had the most fucked up ass nightmare. I was in the room again, and the light went to the bloody-brown color, then winked out. It was dark until the room was flooded with a cold blue light, like someone put a polarize filter on the world. When I could see again, everything was old and broken down. The walls were barely holding up the building. This feeling of dread came over me as I turned around from the corner that my laptop and chair is situated in. The wall stretched out, with hands pushing their way through the wood to grab me and hold me in place as this...thing crawled from a hole in the living room. The hole was impossibly thin compared to this creature. It seemed to be made of quicksilver, flowing through the hole and rebuilding itself. It had six limbs, and each one of them looked like arms and hands. Except, the hands had too many fingers, like twenty fingers to a hand. It looked really cut up, and like it's bones had been broken many times over. Only reason I can remember is because of how slowly it crawled towards me. It wore no clothes, and had no discernible sex organs, or body hair, or anything. As it came towards me, the last thing I remember is it supporting itself on two legs, hands, whatever and seeing a screaming face on it's stomach. It had no head. I woke up then. My room still seems to be iodine colored. Maybe I'm just dreaming. It feels like it's spread to the rest of the house, too. And that damned scratching won't go away.

But seriously. It'd be better if the goddamn roads weren't frozen over. Then I could go to work and forget about this shit. Boss told me to not even bother trying to come in today.

Reading the Nibiru thread a few threads up made me brix because I was like "ohshit, astrological alignment on my house equals being fucked by alternate earth shit." But then I lol'd because this is /x/, and half the stuff on here is just supposed to be scary stories. Right? But yeah. I have no idea what to do. I kinda don't want to go back to bed...that nightmare freaked me the fuck out. I can still see the thing burned into the back of my eyelids.

In the meantime, try to find out what the scratching noise is! Sure, this is a bad idea, but if something's going to happen anyway, you may as well have fun with it. =o
Iodine Room Guy
>>381847 I've been thinking of different possibilities. Maybe birds on the roof? But then again, it's like fucking -1 out there, grats to the birds if they want to freeze their asses off. Popping or scratching noise resulting from the heater being on or off might explain it, due to the sudden temp change, but I haven't had the heater on all day or last night. Animals in the walls makes the most sense...but they'd of probably frozen to death by now, and then again, how did they get on the roof? I mean, christ.

I have to have something keeping me aloft.

>>381850 To me it sounds like mice. We get tons of those fuckers when it's cold, it results in scratching and scampering around the walls and roof, and I usually kick the wall to get them to go fuck around somewhere else in the house, so putting your head on the wall could have the same effect. I'm too fucking lazy to kill the rats because that equals carcasses I have to crawl around under, over and in the house to get.

Considering the temperature, the scratching could the the physical contraction of the walls / forming of ice all along the outside of your temp home. What material is your temporary residence made out of?
Iodine Room Guy
>>381908 Some sort of plastic siding.
And I was joking about Necrons, though that would be pretty badass. Everything would be green, not some sort of sewer shit color if it was Necrons, heh.
I have an aluminum baseball bat, hedge cutters, meat cleaver (I used to live on a farm, what can I say?) and a crappy little pistol that I haven't maintained in years, due to the lack of needing it. There's like, 5 bullets in it. It'd probably just jam if I tried it.

I'd rather die than be a shut in. I couldn't survive against LOL DEMONIC FORCES until the ice melted, I don't think. And then there'd be some sort of mad dash to my truck which would most certainly involved my ass and a demonic hellspawn named Red Foreman's foot.

John Stalvern waited. The lights above him blinked and sparked out of the air. There were demons in the base. He didn't see them, but had expected them now for years. His warnings to Cernel Joson were not listenend to and now it was too late. Far too late for now, anyway. John was a space marine for fourteen years. When he was young he watched the spaceships and he said to dad "I want to be on the ships daddy." Dad said "No! You will BE KILL BY DEMONS" There was a time when he believed him. Then as he got oldered he stopped. But now in the space station base of the UAC he knew there were demons. "This is Joson" the radio crackered. "You must fight the demons!" So John gotted his palsma rifle and blew up the wall. "HE GOING TO KILL US" said the demons "I will shoot at him" said the cyberdemon and he fired the rocket missiles. John plasmaed at him and tried to blew him up. But then the ceiling fell and they were trapped and not able to kill. "No! I must kill the demons" he shouted The radio said "No, John. You are the demons" And then John was a zombie.

Hmm, could I get a proper description of this temporary shelter? Production number and company where it was purchased? Was it meant to used in extremely low temperatures? Is the substance on the outside of the house different from the inside of it? My current theory is that the shorting of light and the scratching, along with the change in coloration of the plastic may be due to the low temperatures that it is being subjected to.
Iodine Room Guy

>>381951 I have no idea, my friend was nice enough to let me borrow it for like a week. It's meant to be used in low temps, after all, it's been here about thirteen years. It's got a redwood porch outside and stone steps out the back door. There's a very small wood burner that hooks up to an equally small chimney.
Eix !!SdYdf5cxy1I
Are you burning anything or are you using an electric heating method? Have you mentioned the scratching sound to your friend? The skeptic in me still wants to attribute the scratching to either ice or contractions due to the temperature, so one way to find out is to see if your friend has had any of these scratching encounters before while the temperatures were well below zero. In addition, if you are burning or using any air-born product, that may be what is reacting to the plastic in order to give it the discoloration.
Iodine Room Guy
>>381980 I haven't used the heater since the first day I moved in. he told me to keep the monthly costs low, so I just use a lot of blankets. I've cooked some food today on the electric oven, but that's about it.

Well, I'm sure it's already been asked, but is it just inside the house that's iodine coloured or is it other things as well? Perhaps outside. Are other things that should normally be the same colour as your walls also a different colour? If so I'm thinking the discolouration could be some sort of malfunction in your eyes.
Iodine Room Guy
>>382032 It's like the atmosphere inside the house is iodine colored. If I look out my window, I see the icy cold grey of winter, almost like in my dream. I don't look out the window much, the contrast starts to hurt my eyes.

The changes to the wall should mostly be permanent if it's due to chemical substances or temperatures affecting the wall. No need to worry that much if they stay the same color, but you may want to raise an eyebrow if they return back to their normal non-iodine color by day or something like that. Also, about the scratching, I didn't catch your thread last night, but did the scratching happen last night? Also, did it extend to the day? (Or is it day over there? I'm currently in China so my sense of time is warped.)In addition if you have time, head outside and see how much if any frost has accumulated on the outside.

Well, do tell if your walls start switching colors or blood and entrails start appearing and disappearing in your trailer. Even if they seem to be hallucinations or visions, take them seriously as your posts indicate that you are in no way going insane. Though, in retrospect going insane is a better alternative to having to face a demon invasion. Remember to always have Guts, Courage and Hard Work. If you are the first person to experience events supernatural, and meet other people along the way, chances are you are the Hero and can make it out alive with much determination. Good luck.

>>382386 I put a coke can outside that was the color, and when I checked later, it was still the same color. Also, I can't run the risk of running out my batteries on pictures if something bad happens. The battery on my phone is at 1 bar and I have my charger at work. I'd like to be able to use it to call for help if I have to. I've tried calling people all day, but with no answers.

>>382388 I really can't figure this out. For a minute I was thinking that maybe since you smoke, it was tinting things, but you haven't been in the house long enough for that to happen if it's even possible on this sort of scale.
Shame about the phone battery, I'd really like a picture of that coke can in the snow.

It's possible that Iodine may be simply going a little stir crazy from a combination of what his GF did to him, being stuck out in that trailer with no contact, the cold, and his dream. (possibly from lack of sleep, I don't know how much sleep you got.) From what Eix said about the sound being in his head and all. Also, did the dream occur in the trailer of your house? What I might suggest is to simply try and get some sleep or otherwise focus on something else like what you've been doing here. What I do when i can't sleep for fear of things, and I have some pretty vivid zombie images in my head sometimes when I try to sleep, is simply lay there in bed in a normally comfortable position and think about something else, a game/book/whatever with my eyes open and after a while close my eyes and try to sleep. Normall I would still see whatever scares me but since I've been focusing on something else I can simply hold onto that in my head and forcefully reject the image of what scares me. Anyway, just a suggestion and I hope this works out for you. Cabin fever, thats what I'm thinking about if thats an actual thing or just the name of that movie I never saw.

The problem is also the iodine tint. I'm leaning towards some kind of chemical leak or some such, but there's nothing in my head that would have such an effect (not that I know much about it) without also staining the skin or causing massive amounts of irritation. However, it would explain the scratching noises to a certain extent.
Anonymous
Quoted By:
>>382412 cabin fevers mainly just a sense of restlessness and irritability. iodine doesn't seem to be pissed off, and hes not in a hurry to run for it so cabin fever doesn't seem likely.
plus he's only been there for about a week. sever cabin fever(enough to cause hallucinations and distorted percept) would take much longer than that to set in.

for example, if someone said if you have arm pain its a "demon possession", you might starting feeling arm pain, even though nothing was really wrong.

TRUE! I am nervous, very, very dreadfully nervous I had been and am; but why will you say that I am mad? The disease had sharpened my senses - not destroyed - not dulled them. Above all was the sense of hearing acute. I heard all things in the heaven and in the earth. I heard many things in hell. How, then, am I mad? Hearken! and observe how healthily - how calmly I can tell you the whole story. It is impossible to say how first the idea entered my brain; but once conceived, it haunted me day and night. Object there was none. Passion there was none. I loved the old man. He had never wronged me. He had never given me insult. For his gold I had no desire. I think it was his eye! yes, it was this! He had the eye of a vulture --a pale blue eye, with a film over it. Whenever it fell upon me, my blood ran cold; and so by degrees - very gradually - I made up my mind to take the life of the old man, and thus rid myself of the eye forever.
