    since we are stabbing in the dark I was thinking
    what about that sign in the reflection? that top one has some almost legible text but something about it doesn't look right

    unless I'm crazy it looks like all of the numbers are facing the right direction and not reversed the way they should be in a mirror, right?

    edit and possibly the G?

    I have two readings of the top sign, but there are more depending on how you read some of the characters
    Y23TRGO1
    of
    Y23TRG01

    I spent like 30 minutes plugging away at it and there is a good chance it is nothing but I also know I am not enough of a Big Puzzle Guy to solve it if there is anything actually there

    I was trying to put the whole thing into the finished cipher from the first riddle but I'm also not super sure I have the cipher right (i used that tool fishman linked but it wasn't made for somebody simple like me)

    line 1 is the code number, line 2 is that code number as a letter, line 3 is the decoded letter that the character in the first two lines represents
    1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26
     A B C D E F G H I J  K  L  M  N  O  P  Q  R  S  T  U  V  W  X  Y  Z

    It's based on the party game Mafia or Werewolf (or any number of other names): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mafia_(party_game)

    The basic gist is some players are the mafia, who know each other, and have to eliminate the villagers. The villagers only know that they're a villager. So it's an uninformed majority versus an informed minority (often with special abilities for players on both sides) to try to oust the mafia.

    Edit: The stickied post in Critical Failures has more information on what PA Forum Phalla is all about.

    "pictured again" seems like an odd choice of words.

    i can only think of maybe

    @Cinders

    or

    @Grey Ghost

    the only other thing i can think of is are objects that are depicted twice somehow in the image a la the "presented again" sign.

    the only objects that are reflected in the mirror are the wall and whatever that blue booklet/paper is

    I don't think it's a mirror. It looks more like a window.

    It would also explain why there is an additional image in there cause the ghost is then the reflection.

    Has anyone mentioned that @Isoldae's image is from the wikipedia article for martial arts breaking?

    Not sure if that helps at all, but I just noticed.

    Virgil_Leads_You, 23, of 1843 Penny Arcade SE++, died Tuesday, November 26, 2013, in H&A Medical Center.
    Services at 11 AM Saturday in Crwth Memorial Park, Chapel of Webcomics. Rev. Geth of the Underground Robot Society will officiate. Burial in Crwth Memorial Park Cemetery.

    Survivors include Mom_Leads_You, Dad_Leads_You, Bro_Leads_You, Brah_Leads_You, Sis_Leads_You, two dogs, Raz, Sophie, & two cats, Moemero, Yena, with many nieces, nephews, and friends.

    Classified - Investigation of Virgil_Leads_You’s Death
    Virgil’s body was found by family, 5:30 PM clutching a note and camera, inside the pink room of his home. Below are the only details to his death.
    Virgil was witnessed spinning around the living room in crazed glee by an excited Raz, upon noticing a mysterious package had been delivered to the house.
    FmilXIY.jpg

    Virgil withdrew into said pink room with package. Yena cited strange mutterings of “sssssSecret ssssSatan” being heard from beyond the room’s door. Virgil’s camera seems to reveal the rest of the story.
    This package opens to two strange boxes, one intricately wrapped in gold- tagged by a closed note, & one branded with the seal of Japanese cultists. It would seem that Virgil was involved with satanic plans concerning a Kaiju attack on the King of Tokyo.
    zcpIOzd.jpg

    The closed note seems to identify the sender of the package via some dark riddle of shared history.
    A3HDWfX.jpg

    The noted golden box was opened by Virgil, revealing a beautiful tin containing devilishly delish pepparkakors.
    Ab8RVHC.jpg

    Investigators suspect Swedish & Japanese collusion in this strange case.
    It would seem that this package also contained 4 wondrous “3DS” artifacts of the lost nation of Nintendo.
    y03f22C.jpg

    Theatrhythm, 3D Land, Time Ocarina, Mario Kart- This agent requests all information concerning these wondrous concepts.
    The package contained one final item, a box of what our experts call, Swedish Dalecarlia Dala Horse Milk Chocolate Filled with Caramel Truffle.
    744of6N.jpg

    Virgil seems to have created a shrine of the photographed items, intricately placing each item in some dark ritual, while consuming several of each of the Swedish delicacies.
    XpWrLgr.jpg

    Existence of said shrine has since disappeared, leaving only the mad grinning corpse of a cultist who I can only assume made some mad joyous pact with entity we know to be the International Secret Satan Cult.
    No-one in this strange family seems to be grieving, and this agent requests surveillance to be made on the residence.

    This place seems really weird.
