Half - Life 2's Biggest Unsolved Mystery Yet

[Chicken Jockey]

So, I had recently saw on Youtube there was a huge Half - life 2 mystery going on that ever since the game's release had something to do with a grafiti called "The Umbrella man" The mystery reminded me of GMod ARGs even though it has nothing to do with GMod. Here's the link to that video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ImewMLwyjdE

There is another version of the grafiti used in the beginning of Ravenholm. The mystery all began back in a website called "HL2.net" which was made back in 2005/2006. There was a post talking about the mystery. If you go to the Ravenholm chapter and look to your left, You'll spot a dark alley way which you'll find the grafiti "The Umbrella Man" However you will notice some changes and differences. 1. The face is black and distorted 2. the legs are missing. However, If you go into hammer editor and load the first Ravenholm map. You can find the grafiti and you can lift it up. If you lift it up, You'll see distorted appearances. When users pulled the decal up, They noticed something strange with the decal. There was a copy from a archive website of the altered grafiti. And if inspecting the image you'll find out it is actually corrupted! You'll need to inspect it in the text editor of the image and scroll down. You will find the following text/command:

"console command: "INTERLOPE"
'Unknown Command' "INTERLOPE
console: Get s.interlope.pull:27015"

These texts are actually console commands! You must type in the word "INTERLOPE" in the console without the two marks (Sorry forgot what they're called). But it'll just say "Unknown command: Interlope" But don't assume it didn't work because it actually did. Then type in "console: Get s.interlope.pull:27015" without the two marks. And once you do, Unusual things will happen.. It'll take you to a random area on any map and your camera will shake agressively for a split second and it will quit to main menu. And you will recieve a message in the console saying: "Adminstrator: WELCOME WITH CAUTION. YOU ARE NOT WELCOMED HERE:)". Now you may be wonder, What on earth just happened?! What happened was that the text you put in generated a demo. If you don't know what a DEMO is, It is a command where it allows you to record gameplay on the console. If you load in a recorded demo it will quit to main menu once it's finished. Here are the demo commands

record test
stop
PLAYDEMO

But we know the word "GET" That is used in the command:
"Get s.interlope.pull:27015" has something to do with what generates the data in demos. And names them data.dem But what was asked the most was what is the data contained withen the files? And what is generating them? Addcording to hl2.net there is a "90%" chance of normal demos being recorded. While the 5% chance are well.. Like the typical GMod ARG. Some of the maps include files such as "Data.bsp" You can load into them. But.. Does this DEMO thing and data map work on other games such as TF2,Portal,Counter-strike? Let's find out! So, If you do this.. It pretty much works! It goes same for Half - Life 2. But in Counter Strike source, There is something a bit different. Instead of your camera shaking agressively, It just teleports you around the map really quick. And here is where stuff quickly shifts into something out of a GMod ARG. Sometimes, They appear as if they're being controlled by a VR headset user. And it is just very weird. You'll see frames of strange things in the sky, Weird sudden VR Movements. It happens very rare sometimes. Users in hl2.net calls these the "Type 5" Demos. These are the very weird ones. Such as there being a creepy Half - Life 2 demos from the coast maps.

It happens very rare sometimes. Users in hl2.net calls these the "Type 5" Demos. These are the very weird ones. Such as there being a creepy Half - Life 2 demos from the coast maps. A clip known as the "spookycoast.mov" With another one being called "Misty.mov" There are only screenshots for now. In TF2, There was one type 5 demo where it shows the perspective of scout in the 2fort intelligence base peeking through a door with a
A-Posing heavy. When he turns around, He sees another A-Posing heavy and he looks back and the other A-posing heavy was now facing scouts direction. If you want to know what these type 5 demos look like then watch the video URL. Back to the grafiti in Ravenholm, The grafiti.. Is now gone completly! it had somehow disappeared. If anybody knows what happened to the grafiti let me know. But the spooky coast clip was finally found! It showed the perspective of a citizen in the station near the bridge. When he is right near a house, He sees another citizen T-posing in the dark. He doesn't care as he keeps wondering near the house and sees two random citizens but he still wonders around the house, until he sees glowing eyes in the dark. Whatever it was, It ran to the citizen pushed him into the ocean. The citizen was drowning. But if you look up into the sky, You'll see floating things that are also in the CS Type 5 demo. That was the end of our mystery.. The misty demo was yet not found. Let me know if I missed anything or if I got anything wrong.

is there an zip for image file, if so I might be able to try it out.

Right now, interlope command is offline right now. So, in December 6th, the interlope command will probably be online.

the spray isn't even important to the ARG anymore. It just started from a useless dumb spray paint into some weird VR stuff.

Then, you made a topic about it.
