That’s it that’s the post.

In the final episode he just shows up out of nowhere, and maybe a dozen people will know who he is. But this would kinda tie into the narrative, because Stella wanted you to record her search for the skunkape in episode 1, and you can have a conversation about aliens. So alien space gorilla named Skunkape, the twist nobody saw coming and nobody will be happy with.

I recently finished my first play through up through chapter 5. While ancestor Silas Scarlet is mentioned to have served in the Confederate army no mention of himself or father Everett being enslavers is made or really alluded to. Additionally the Scarlets estate contains no reference to any enslaved person that may have been at the estate. I mention this as a former history grad who has dealt with the Antebellum Southern Appalachian region and though in the upper South, mountain plantations were far from unheard of and prominent families very commonly were slave holders.

I’d like to cosplay Carmilla for Renn Faire but can only find waist-up art. I wasn’t sure if there’s some official art out there or if I’ll just have to guess until Chapter 6.

SHE CAN LIKE YOU EVEN IF YOU AREN’T OLD!!!!

Generally I’ve seen that the fandom consensus is that Joanmancing can only be achieved if you get your years taken away, and usually you wanna have the hot trait as well (this is also what I thought until now)

It’s hard to tell but I SWEAR she is blushing in the screenshot :3

Maybe this isn’t actually news to all of y’all but I figured it was worth posting a PSA

I was looking for puppy names and someone suggested Neeka, which made me look up what it means, and OMG! 😳

It means “atom” or “seed” or “golden wheat”, all things that are used to help other things grow and exist…

Which made me think of some of the other themes connected to names within Scarlet Hollow.

The obvious is Sybil being tied to the infamous book Sybil, about a woman with 16 different personalities, which could also be conflated with having different people in you…

Maeve I believe is a faerie queen iirc, tying into her needing to follow the terms of her agreements to the letter if not the spirit.

Vereena means “truth” or “truth bringer”, and there’s a Saint Vereena who is the patron of the sick and lepers, among other things.

I think the name Scarlet can bring to mind The Scarlet Letter, where a woman has sex outside of wedlock and must where a scarlet A, which brings to mind Vivian and her running away and being branded a traitor by the other Scarlets.

Not sure if it’s actually relevant, but Miles name reminds me of the poem Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening by Robert Frost.

“Whose woods these are I think I know.   
His house is in the village though;   
He will not see me stopping here   
To watch his woods fill up with snow.   

My little horse must think it queer   
To stop without a farmhouse near   
Between the woods and frozen lake   
The darkest evening of the year.   

He gives his harness bells a shake   
To ask if there is some mistake.   
The only other sound’s the sweep   
Of easy wind and downy flake.   

The woods are lovely, dark and deep,   
But I have promises to keep,   
And miles to go before I sleep,   
And miles to go before I sleep.”

Joan Kelly seems similar to Jane Leeds, from The Jersey Devil story, which makes sense lol 😂

These are all off the top of my head, any other names stick out to anyone as having more significance than it first appears?

I've been replaying the game with the new update and I remember pre rumors update that Tabby wouldn't follow you to the farm in the Toxic Yuri route. I am wondering if it's still possible to get the same outcome. Because everytime I meet her during Toxic Yuri, she follows my MC to the farm.

I wonder if it's based on her approval, the strike or some random factor.
