Thank you for sharing. Poor Elisa. Her poor family.

Doesn't seem to be -- I've been scouring the internet a couple times a week, and...nothing. Starting to think that the test results may never be made public. :(

If I'm remembering correctly, earlier in one of these threads, the jacket turned out to be a black garbage bag that looked like a jacket from one angle but a garbage bag from another.

Yes, I recall there being over 100 individual homicides covered by the media. I'll do a more in-depth search to catch all the BC ones, if you like, but I think this is enough to illustrate my point -- here is a map of the 72 homicides that occurred just in Metro Vancouver & the Fraser Valley in...

If Elisa were obsessed with Left 4 Dead, I would have expected it to have had a much bigger presence on her Tumblr, among other things. It's one of those things that she mentioned once, and people have run with it saying she was obsessed. Someone in her age range mentioning L4D once is not at...

(snipped by me to save space) There tends to be at least one article for each homicide here, though the victim is not always named. Homicides are still low enough per capita that they are considered newsworthy. I've also seen several local homicides get much longer-lasting media coverage here...

As well, there are a ton of discrepancies between the plot of "Dark Water" and Elisa's death that it seems a tenuous thread to me to begin with. "Dark Water" was about the person's dwelling -- not hotel -- being constantly invaded by this dark water/flooding, invoking fear by showing this evil...

Just a quick note on the possibility of Elisa being naive about the movie industry, etc. -- Vancouver is a huge movie industry hub (we're called Hollywood North), and feature films are shooting around here all the time, lots of companies are involved in the film industry, etc. We frequently have...

I know this reply is a bit delayed, but I saw a couple questions about culture specific to BC... "In residence" is in a university residence (ie: dorms.) It may also be referred to as "res." Legal age here is 19 (alcohol/gambling/tobacco), but you can vote at 18, and you're considered an...

Well, I’m still thinking she just occasionally queued things well ahead of time with manual dates. I have a few things sitting in my queue with random dates, myself. To echo neo, the tag is one she’s used before, and it’s highly unlikely anyone else would have entered it.

sugarpooper, I think you're actually on the same page as the folks saying to take the Tumblr with a grain of salt. Personally, I was commenting on people reading too much into her posts with sort of a confirmation bias angle...a good example is a single reblog of the picture that had rooftops in...

It's pretty common for Canadians who frequent the US to get a cheap US phone & pay-as-you-go type of plan, since Canadian phone rates in the US tend to be ridiculous, and US cell phone plans are so much cheaper than up here. Could be that her friend gave her an old one he didn't use anymore...

100% this! When looking at someone's blog, it's important to remember that it's just one aspect of their personalities that they're presenting. As an example: I have one Tumblr blog that is exclusively a place for me to rant and cheer about my struggles with chronic illness. Now, I live a...

For context: I got my first credit card in 2nd year university, in ‘99. A credit card company set up a booth at my school to give away credit cards with a picture of the school on it, and a bunch of free swag like T-shirts, etc. They sold it as a “great opportunity to start building...

I have a lot of friends who max out their credit cards on fashion and travel and then complain about not having money for rent and such. :banghead: Very common to live outside your means, sadly.
