One of the images from the 2017 real estate listing takes us inside Brian’s presumed bedroom. A disturbing poster of dark figures with hammers and spheres violently attacking other figures can be seen resting on the two-case bookshelf.
Other items observed in the room include what appears to be a gun propped up next to the shelves over his bed, a Darth Vader mask and a series of “Watchmen” books.

Social media sleuths claim Laundrie, apparently an avid reader, is also spotted
engrossed in a book about women who go missing in a video uploaded to the couple’s
YouTube channel. The “person of interest in the case” is briefly shown reading what appears to be
Jeff VanderMeer’s “Annihilation,” a 2014 novel about four females who venture into the so-called Area X, where three of them die and the fourth disappears permanently.

But this isn’t the only home owned — or sold — by the Laundries recently.
Property records show they had also owned a Venice, Florida condo unit since 2015, which they bought for $99,500. They

The Laundries also
had a home in Bayport, NY, at one point, which they purchased back in 2008 for $330,000, property records reveal. They sold it in 2017 for $385,000 — the same year they attempted to sell their current Florida home.

“We drove by and the gentleman was slapping the girl,” the caller said, according to audio of the call that emerged Monday.
The dispatcher responded, “He was slapping her?”
“Yes, and then we stopped. They ran up and down the sidewalk, he proceeded to hit her, hopped in the car and they drove off,” the caller replied.
On Tuesday afternoon, police revealed they are “actively” investigating deer camera footage that captured
a hiker resembling Brian trekking through the wilderness.
“I’m not saying this is the guy but whoever was on my trail camera this morning in Baker, [Florida] strongly fits the description of Brian Laundrie,” Bass wrote on Facebook. “Authorities have been contacted but people in the northwest Florida area be on the look out.”
A man named Sam Bass told investigators he spotted the man toting a backpack at 6:17 a.m. on Monday in the town of Baker, Florida — about 500 miles away from Laundrie’s home in North Port.
