Cindy Marie Martin

**Cindy Marie Martin** is a recurring minor character who's primarily mentioned in notes within Chapter I. She's referenced once in Chapter II and makes a physical appearance during flashbacks of John's first exorcism in Chapter III.

Cindy was the mother of Amy Martin and wife of Bob Martin. Ever since she miscarried her twin boys, who were supposed to be named Nate and Jason Martin, she was mentally spiraling out of control to the point she fully believed her sons were still alive, despite receiving psychological treatment. While her husband was stationed in Nicaragua for missionary services, he shipped a doll for Amy's birthday, which acted as a catalyst for Cindy's increasing delusions of the twins; so much so that her illusions were directly interacting with her.

Once Bob returned home, he noticed Amy was withdrawn and Cindy was pandering with her illusions & trying to find "replacements". He and Cindy contacted the Catholic Church in hopes of an exorcist arriving to relieve Amy's suspected possession. Two priests named Father Allred and John Ward respectively were assigned to take on the task, but during the exorcism session, Cindy and Bob were brutally gutted and strangled by their own daughter.

## Appearance

The only detailed look we get of Cindy, besides her corpse, is a family portrait taken when Amy was younger. She looks like your standard 80s mother, wearing either a blouse or a sweater during the initial exorcism of Amy. Her hairstyle and necklace (or collar of her blouse) is her notable features.

## Personality

Basing off of every note written by her, she's a caring mother and overly protective towards her "two sons". She's closed-minded, though, only making assumptions of people or objects based off of what they look like. The biggest, and most critical, example of this is how she mistakenly believes Bob is doing services in the Middle East instead of Nicaragua because of how a doll he sent to their daughter looked like. Another example is she believes one of her friends named Aneesh is from the Middle East because she looks like she originated from there.

All in all, Cindy is mentally delusional and difficult to uphold whatever she writes in her notes as factual. Creating fake birthday parties, decorating the twins' rooms, and drawing pictures under their name establishes that she's trying to remain normal and sociable to other people as if nothing happened. Some of her friends attempt to play along with her delusions to not upset her too much, meaning that she holds some kind of respect and capable of interacting with others. Publicly, the Sterling community views her and Bob as active members of the area.

This may seem trivial to mention, but Cindy and the rest of her family are not religious, which makes it strange considering that they requested the Catholic Church for aid. We can suspect that Cindy and Bob were desperate enough to reach out to anybody for help, they were very worried about their daughter.

## Biography

### Sometime in 1948

Considering that Cindy was 38 years old by the time of her death, we can confirm that she was born sometime in 1948 to unnamed parents.

### March 12th, 1969

An obituary found in Chapter II reveals Cindy and Bob got married in Voluntown, Connecticut. We're assuming that shortly thereafter, they moved into a house deep within a forest nearby Snake Meadow Hill Road in Sterling, Connecticut.

### Sometime in 1970

We don't know exactly what year Amy was born but taking a note in Chapter I into consideration, she was 17 years old in 1987. So, by deducting "17" from "1987", she was born at some point in 1970 to Cindy and Bob. Due to the secluded location of their home, she receives her education via homeschooling.

### May 3rd, 1980

A decade later, Cindy becomes pregnant again. On May 3rd, she's expecting to deliver twin boys, who she (or Bob) plans to name Nate and Jason respectively. We get this date from a birthdate invitation found in Chapter I, where the twins were supposed to have become 6 years old on May 3rd. Since Chapter I takes place in 1987, that means this invitation was made in 1986. So, by deducting "6" from "1986", we get May 3rd, 1980.

Unfortunately, during delivery, Cindy miscarried them. Distraught over the sudden loss, she becomes delusional and perceives them as still being alive, despite not ever seeing them. Although Bob assigned her a psychiatrist that he knows, Dr. Morris, she occasionally relapses despite her therapeutic sessions by creating kiddie drawings, decorating the twins' bedroom, and holding fake birthday parties as if they're still around.

### Early 1986

In early 1986, Bob, Dr. Morris, and other of his friends make a trip to do missionary work (despite never being religious himself) in Nicaragua, concurrent with a real-life civil war that had been affecting the country for months. They'll all return within September. With Bob gone, only Cindy and Amy live in the house. Although everything seems to be working out well, it's best to assume that Cindy still relapses into her delusions, and it's probably difficult for Amy to deal with them. Besides, there's only so much they can do in the middle of a dense forest.

Amy turns sixteen years old at some point and Bob mails her a doll he found as a gift while doing work in Nicaragua. Although Cindy notes that Amy seems disappointed with her gift, likely wishing she would've gotten a phone than anything or it made her feel self-conscious because she's currently working at a birthing clinic, the doll acts as a catalyst for Cindy's increasing delusions about the twin boys; firstly making her believe that Bob is stationed somewhere in the Middle East than Nicaragua, all because of how the doll looks. Illusions of the twins appear to be communicating and interacting to Cindy only; nobody else recognizes or sees them. They also loosely try to plant the idea that she can find replacements for them.

### May 3rd, 1986

On the sixth anniversary of the twins' due date, Cindy made an imaginary birthday party for them. Some of her friends attend her party to not upset her too much. During the party, one of her friends named Nancy spots a "tall man wearing dark clothing" talking to one of the twins outside of the party. Nancy calls Cindy later that night about what she witnessed. Cindy panics and wonders how she didn't notice this sooner. She plans to contact the sheriff about what happened, but nothing ever comes of it. Cindy writes all of this down on a note and laments how she needs Bob to be here and not elsewhere in the Middle East.

Deviating from Cindy for a bit, this "tall man" may be referring to Gary Miller, the operator of the birthing clinic Amy is interning at and a cult leader of the Eternal Order of the Second Death. He's planning to use Amy for a cursed ritual called the Second Death in order to summon the Antichrist onto Earth and create his own Unholy Trinity. We're speculating that, in order to not have anybody else accidentally intervene with his plan, he was scoping out the Martin House to ensure Amy would be alone to proceed with the ritual.

At some undisclosed timeframe, there are implications that cult members are surveying the property since Cindy spotted two adults roaming the forest. Apparently, they were hikers that got lost and she pointed them towards the closest road, Snake Meadow Hill Road, but overall feels uneasy about the experience and contemplates whether she should retrieve Bob's rifle he stores in his closet or not. Cindy writes down this encounter on a note for herself.

### May 4th, 1986

Today's the day Amy starts her new school year at home. She expresses dissatisfaction to her mother and wants to go to a real school, likely to socialize and get out of the house, but Cindy just believes she has cabin fever. Interestingly, the twins apparently ran into the house with blood on their hands. Cindy follows them and comes across a deer carcass. She plans to write this encounter to Bob the next day and mail it to him. This event greatly signifies that the twins' illusions are growing stronger and are capable of interacting with their surroundings. It's likely that Cindy herself was touching the carcass in a trance-like or disassociated mental state.

### May 5th, 1986

The next day, Cindy writes a letter and plans to deliver it to Bob. She states that the twins and Amy recently started their new school year at home, but Amy expresses dissatisfaction and wishes to go to a real school. She dismisses her worries and merely chalks it up to cabin fever. More importantly, Cindy writes about how yesterday the twins came running into the house with blood on their hands. She followed them and found a horrific site of a deer carcass. Her initial belief is that there's some kind of coyote problem but she's still somewhat concern. The letter ends that all of this happened just a day after the twin's birthday and can't wait for him to return.

### Before September 6th, 1986

A couple months pass, and we cut to September. Cindy seemingly caved in from her Book Club members and forbade Amy to ever go back to work at the clinic. Amy obliges despite retaliating against the idea. With Amy gone, this jeopardizes the plans for the Second Death. Gary thinks fast and decides to emotionally entice Amy back to the clinic with a premise of a get-together happening on a Saturday night. In the letter, he manipulates her feelings by saying how she's an adult and can handle her own decisions despite being sixteen. He follows up that she shouldn't let her mother & father dictate her dreams and he'll be there for her if she needs anything. He ends his letter that there'll be a get-together at the clinic, it'll be great for her to join, and she's still considered a part of the team despite her departure. Amy receives the letter and plans to sneak out on the 6th.

As an important footnote here, despite not entirely relating to Bob, a text file found in the Goodies Folder of FAITH called "FAITH - TheStorySoFar" thoroughly explains that Amy did sneak out on the 6th (which is why this Sub-Heading is titled "Before September 6th, 1986"). She got a ride to the birthing clinic. Once inside, the cult restrained her and intentionally got her possessed by an unnamed demon, who is heavily implied to be an alias of an evil deity worshipped by the cult called the UNSPEAKABLE, that aids the process of the Second Death. The cult drops her off at her home and speeds away. Amy enters her house and Cindy seemingly doesn't suspect any foul play. However, she somewhat notices that Amy is "off" or got some kind of condition.

"The Offering" Note from Chapter I is the only note in-game that alludes to how Amy ever got possessed, but the reasoning has been intentionally vague. The doll that Bob shipped to Amy from earlier is a red herring and only relates to Cindy's delusions about the twins and finding replacements (because otherwise nothing else sparked her to pander with her delusions, even when Bob was gone before he shipped the doll). It was important to mention this footnote now rather than later because it causes unnecessary confusion regarding the series plot.

To make sure Cindy doesn't accidentally interfere with anything again, Gary intentionally manipulates her illusions that goad her to looking for replacements. Although currently there's not clear proof as to how he knows this, there's vague evidence that it's his way of toying with mentally unwell mothers. However, it might be the doll's doing as well, it's intentionally vague.

### Before September 21st, 1986

At least a couple days pass and Cindy doesn't feel safe in the house anymore; It feels like the atmosphere is warped or slanted. She jots down on a note that she occasionally hears voices emitting from the forest at night. Additionally, she's incredibly uncomfortable whenever she's around Amy, believing that whatever condition she has is getting worse. She wishes to take her to see a doctor but notices that her car keys are missing and the phoneline doesn't work during the day. An important detail to point out is that the illusions of the twins are more apparent than ever, the only real reason Cindy doesn't want to leave and contact somebody is that she can't just ditch the twins behind with Amy. She even restricts them from playing outside because of the strange noises, so it appears that the twins have somewhat "manifested" into being. The note ends how she feels slightly relieved upon realizing that Bob will be returning home tomorrow.

With Amy possessed, Gary and the cult finalizes a couple of things before they can restrain Amy once again and perform the Second Death while Cindy is preoccupied with her delusions. However, what Gary didn't expect is Bob returning from Nicaragua so soon. Now home, Bob is greeted with a standoffish Amy and a mentally unstable Cindy. Since Dr. Morris returned home as well, he tried to contact Bob about what to do with Cindy. From a recent counseling session, Cindy starts to fully indulge in her delusions and brought up how she can find replacements for the twins; the same subject the two heard about while working in Nicaragua.

Bob does not heed Dr. Morris' worries; we're assuming because he's too preoccupied with trying to figure out what happened to Amy rather than what caused Cindy's sharp mental decline. Running out of options, Bob and Cindy contact the Catholic Church (a.k.a. The Vatican) to see if an exorcist can come to relieve Amy's possession. Father Allred is assigned to take on the task since he's well experienced with exorcisms. Analyzing the situation before officially starting the exorcism, Allred comes into conclusions that Amy's possession is stronger than what he's used to, so he contacts the Catholic Church for an assistant. John Ward, a priest who's never done an exorcism before, is assigned to take on the grueling task.

Father Allred schedules to have the exorcism performed on the 21st. He was hoping to perform the session away from the house, preferably a decrepit shed nearby, because he knows how distressing it can be for family members to witness an exorcism performed on their loved ones based off of experience. Unfortunately, Bob and Cindy were adamant on having it done inside the house so that they can periodically check on Amy.

### September 21st, 1986

(The majority of this Sub-Heading is taken from Chapter III's nightmare flashbacks and notes John wrote down that we can find in Chapter I)

On this fateful day, Father Allred and John drive to the Martin House in the night to begin the exorcism. The two park outside, open the door, and Allred introduces himself and John to Bob and Cindy.

John nervously darts his eyes and Cindy oddly remains quiet; Bob's a nervous wreck and shamefully tells the two that he had to tie Amy in the basement. Walking downstairs, Amy stares at John and Father Allred coldly as Allred tries to ask how she's doing. With no response, Allred demands the demon's name in Latin, and her demon remarks, "HELLO, PRIEST." Father Allred begins the exorcism.

John stares blankly as he sees Father Allred attempting to exorcise Amy with his crucifix. Amy can only kick her feet and laugh (or scream) as the session goes.

Allred gets annoyed and demands John to recite the prayer of exorcism from a nearby book. Upon reading the fourth verse, Bob and Cindy walk downstairs to see the commotion, inadvertently preventing him from completing the exorcism (this mess-up is referenced way down the line). Sensing Cindy's horrified silence, Amy's demon tries to call out to her by chanting, "MOTHER! MOTHER!" Allred requests John to take her parents back upstairs since her demon is trying to afflict them.

John relocates the two and Bob tries to spark a conversation; saying that whatever is going on with his daughter is not her, but John sourly responds with, "...I don't know what to tell you." He instructs the two to wait upstairs while he goes back down to assist Father Allred. In the basement once again, John finds Allred unconscious and notices that Amy is nowhere in sight. Shortly before Allred collapsed, he wrote "Take it" and "Save her" with his own blood. John picks up Allred's crucifix and says, "Don't worry, Amy. I'm coming."

John searches up and down on the 1st Floor for Amy, Bob and Cindy have strangely disappeared. However, he occasionally spots Cindy hiding behind furniture with a creepy face and sees Bob seemingly trapped in a mirror in the master bedroom (it's unclear if this genuinely happened or was just a weird occurrence in a nightmare of his first exorcism).

Her face looks like somebody crudely drawn a smiley face, but since the color is red, it means that something carved two eyes and a smile. Anytime John tries to go near her, the room briefly loses power, and when it comes back, Cindy disappeared.

If John investigates the family portrait in the foyer, the portrait is tampered. Bob and Cindy's eyes and throat were scribbled out. There's a gaping hole over Amy's face and an insignia of the UNSPEAKABLE is on top of her (it's also unclear if this genuinely happened or was another weird occurrence of a nightmare.)

Walking upstairs to the 2nd Floor and into the attic, he spots Amy standing motionlessly. The entire room is cold. He urges her to go back downstairs to restart the exorcism, but her demon starts to tease that his deceased mother is in the room with them. John ignores the goading and calls out for Bob and Father Allred. The demon mocks him again that nobody is coming to rescue him. With no choice, John attempts to restart the exorcism all by himself.

Amy's demon was far too powerful, she knocks out John after a brief struggle and flees. Awakening, John places mannequins around the entrance to the main attic and vows to never return back in there based on what he's witnessed. Despite of that, he still wishes to resume the exorcism, so he investigates the house again to look for her. In Amy's bedroom, John is horrified to find Cindy's corpse near the same doll from months prior.

Amy apparently gutted and strangled her with her own intestines while John was unconscious. Walking to the master bedroom, he also finds Bob's strangled body.

By this point, John is deeply frightened and feels like he needs to get out of the house immediately before getting killed himself. However, he doesn't want to leave Father Allred behind since he was merely unconscious, so he musters determination and ventures to the basement again.

To keep this date brief since Bob and Cindy are dead, Amy ambushed John in the basement after she mimicked and manipulated Father Allred's corpse. The lights suddenly cut out and the entire house goes dark before John gets killed. Alone and terrified, John accidentally prays and makes a deal to a white entity who he thought was the Lord to escape the house alive, in exchange for, "the girl's fate sealed".

Inadvertently dooming Amy from ever recovering from her possession, John stumbles out of the house alive and towards paramedics and the police. This entity probably used some kind of otherworldly power to contact emergency services since its unlikely Bob or anyone else within the house contacted them. A note found in Chapter II suggests that the police currently suspect John is the murderer once they eventually recovered the bodies, probably because it's unlikely a teenage girl can overpower three adults, but John is too discombobulated to provide a concise narrative.

### September 24th, 1986

For the past two days, John and Amy were residing in Yale Psychiatric Institute for the time being since both are too mentally unstable to stand trial or be incarcerated. The head runner of the institution, Dr. McGlashan, assigns John a psychiatrist named Dr. Spinel so that he can get more information out of him to provide to the police and Martin Family Attorneys, who are trying to solve the murder case.

Flashing forward to the 24th, a public closed-casket funeral for Bob and Cindy is held at Tillinghast Funeral Home in Sterling, Connecticut. Due to the severity of their injuries, an open-casket funeral, where attendees can view the corpses during the funeral service, was not available. An obituary was written and released to the public, detailing that their lives came to a tragic end in their home from an accident. Since the murder case is still pending, their deaths are currently ruled an accident. The obituary provides a small backstory of their lives, where Bob was a training advisor for the U.S. Navy and Cindy was a Certified Public Accountant (abbreviated to CPA). Although the family were not religious, Bob and Cindy were respectful members of the Sterling community.

What's very important to point out here is that the obituary ends stating that Bob & Cindy are survived by Amy, Nate, and Jason. Additionally, the obituary states that Bob & Cindy taught their children, not child, to be generous and kind within the community. The Martin Twins never existed. This obituary can only be found in Chapter II, a vivid nightmare where John fully believes that the twins are alive. This means that every note that he picks up within that dream are influenced by his thoughts and feelings. This outlier won't be brought up until way later.

#### Aftermath

To keep everything brief and relevant, John was officially released from Dr. Spinel's care on October 31st after completing required counseling sessions. It's unknown if a consensus was made that Amy was the murderer nor if Bob & Cindy's deaths were ruled an accident or homicide, but Amy currently resides in another mental institute for the time being. John was denounced as a priest by the Catholic Church for an unknown reason, presumably because they don't want the public to know that possessions are real and capable of overpowering priests, it would make the organization look incompetent and cause mass hysteria. Now back home, John marries a woman named Molly and tries to move on as to what happened inside the Martin House, but he knows that Amy is still possessed out there.

### September 21st, 1987 (Chapter I)

John never truly got over what happened back in the Martin House. At some unknown time period, he experiences a vivid dream where Amy reached out to him, requesting him to return back to the Martin House and finish the botched exorcism. To keep this brief since it doesn't relate to Cindy, Amy somehow escaped a mental institution and ran all the way back to her house on September 13th. We're assuming Gary and other cult members were around the area, so when she makes it home, cult members restrained her and performed the Second Death ritual on her. Now she has a gaping face hole. Gary and others cursed the property and use the local wildlife as sacrifices to put into her portal to Hell.

Today's the anniversary of the failed exorcism. Shortly before driving back to the cursed home, John feels it's courtesy of him to leave behind a letter to Molly. In the letter, he tries to tell her the true version of what happened a year ago, hinting that if he never returns, the Catholic Church will tell her their own version of what happened to him. He recaps that Amy, in reality, cut the power to the house, strangled her own parents with their gutted intestines and murdered Father Allred with her own hands. He delusionally states that he's obligated to return to the Martin House since his recently occurring nightmares are real and believes he can still exorcise Amy. John ends his letter that he loves her (Molly) very much and is sorry, implying that he's expecting to die in the house and his mission is like an elaborate suicide.

Now nighttime, John hops into his silver sedan. He monologues and reassures himself that he has to finish what he started, despite not being approved by The Vatican/Catholic Church. John pulls over to the side of Snake Meadow Hill Road, jumps out, and ventures into the dense forest looking for the Martin House.

The forest has a mind of its own and seems like he's walking in a loop, likely because the property surrounding the Martin House is influenced by demonic entities with thanks to Gary's meddling. Walking around hopelessly, a "chupacabra" named Michael appears from nowhere and attempts to ambush him, screaming obscenities of the Lord in the process. John fends him off with his crucifix and continues exploring.

Meandering through the trees, John stumbles across various notes and letters left behind by Cindy, including the Martin Twins' birthday invitation card, a letter detailing her sons touching a deer carcass, and questioning whether or not she should take out Bob's rifle.

Additionally, John spots illusions of the Martin Twins aimlessly running around, which establishes that Cindy's illusions of the twins are real in some way (the game never really explains this besides alluding that this is Gary's doing). John follows their trail and comes across the Martin House. By the time he finds the front door key nearby and enters the house, he's thoroughly convinced that the twin boys are real, because this belief is applied to a few sightings in Chapter II and the majority of Chapter III.

In the foyer, John can spot a portrait of the Martin Family nearby, showcasing a younger Amy, Bob, and Cindy.

Additionally, if John inspects a fridge in the kitchen, he'll see a drawing of a cult member holding hands with a tall shadowy figure, signed by Nate Martin.

Referencing what Dr. Morris stated earlier (his note will be found much later in the Chapter III section), steady progress was made regarding Cindy accepting the truth that her sons were miscarried, but apparently while Bob was away in Nicaragua, she drew this picture. Our only credible reasoning is the doll's influence. She didn't start to mention about the twins until after Bob shipped the doll for Amy's sixteenth birthday. This picture establishes that Cindy was starting to mentally breakdown and saw something that somewhat related to the Eternal Order of the Second Death. This tall shadowy figure may also be the same one mentioned in an unused note written by her that was supposed to be found in Chapter I (her detailing the twin's birthday party).

We flashforward a bit to a standoff between John and Amy within the attic. Amy stumbles after an exorcism session and shambles towards the attic window. Before John can do anything, she screams and flings herself out of the window, plummeting all the way to the ground from a two-story house. John rushes downstairs and wants to check on her condition outside. In the foyer, there's blood on the floor that spells, "KILL HER" backwards. There's a gun nearby the front door, it's Bob's rifle, mentioned from one of Cindy's notes. John picks it up and remarks that it only has one bullet. He steps outside with a small intent of fatally shooting Amy to end it all.

#### Aftermath

John found Amy nearly bleeding to death from her injuries not too far from the house. Although he was tempted to shoot her from the backward lettering, he shakes off the urge and decides to simply drive back home, believing that he's done enough with her even though he's leaving her to die alone from her wounds without contacting help. Michael attempts to ambush John one last time when he tries to enter his car, but John retaliates and shoots him in self-defense. Michael staggers onto Snake Meadow Hill Road in pain and suddenly gets ran-over by a semi-truck.

Shook up as to what just happened, John calms his nerves by reciting a prayer. He monologues that he can't explain what happened inside the Martin House, but he'll have to hold faith that he did the right thing. He speeds back home.

Although this will not be thoroughly explained here, a note found in Chapter II heavily suggests that the UNSPEAKABLE was within the Martin House. It attached to John and another priest named Father Garcia since they were both within the property. John and Garcia begin to experience vivid nightmares that seem to be demonically influenced.

### September 28th, 1987 (Chapter II)

A week has passed ever since John failed his second exorcism with Amy. Sleeping in his bed, John experiences his worst nightmare yet.

Flashing forward a bit, the only remarkable thing within this dream that relates to Bob is the obituary stated earlier. If John exorcises one of the many gravestones within Gallup Cemetery, it'll leave behind the obituary that states Bob & Cindy are survived by Amy, Nate, and Jason. Since everything within this dream is tied back to John's thoughts and feelings about his environment, we cannot uphold any note collected within Chapter II as entirely credible. Chapter II still provides a majority of worldbuilding, despite being a dream, so it's important to keep this factor in mind.

#### Aftermath

Skipping forward, John awakens from his nightmare in a panic after witnessing the UNSPEAKABLE emerging from an elderly nun named Miriam. John finds a departing letter from Molly and another letter from the stranger, Father Garcia. Garcia explains that they must find the Martin Twins before the cult can use them to summon a great demon named Malphas. He's currently in the process of discovering their whereabouts, so he urges him to await for future updates. John hops into his car, probably to clear his mind, and tries to uphold strength to move on from Amy, find the Martin Twins, and stop the summoning of Malphas before the Profane Sabbath, the one day (October 31st) where demonic activity is at its peak.

### October 28th, 1987 (Chapter III)

Flashing forward a month later, John begins to have nightmares where he reexperiences his first exorcism. Everything related to Cindy is the same as detailed in the "September 21st, 1986" section, so future nightmares where Cindy appears will be skipped. There's one outlier, however. Instead of Nate/Cindy's picture hung up on the fridge, there's a drawing of a church and two stick dolls signed by Amy herself.

At first glance you would assume this is another drawing by Cindy where she signed Amy's name. However, this is not possible because there's no evidence that she was an orphan at the church detailed here, Snake Meadow Hill Church, but John was. Since this drawing can only be seen in nightmares of the first exorcism, it's safe to bet that this is another weird occurrence within John's nightmare that ties back to his days at the church. More of this is explained in John's wiki page, so please take a look.

### October 31st, 1987 (Ending I & II)

Flashing forward a few days later, John confronts Gary within a deep underground system called Garyland. Impressed that he's made it this far, Gary grants John three questions that he can answer on any subject. Questioning about the Martin Twins, Gary's face distorts and pities him, exclaiming that he knew, deep down, that the twins were nothing more than an illusion. Gary continues that he would've wished they were real, just like the late Mrs. Martin/Cindy, but ultimately knew that these illusions would eventually draw towards him.

The answer here is a bombshell regarding John and Father Garcia considering that they've wasted their time going around Connecticut in a wild goose chase for children that never existed. Additionally, the dialogue confirms that Gary intentionally had a hand in creating illusions of the twins, including how Cindy would suddenly start mentioning them in her notes as if everything was normal, John spotting them within The Forest, and tricking Father Garcia into believing they were real.

### October 31st, 1987 (Ending III "A New Vessel")

In this alternative ending, John bailed from investigating a daycare center on the 30th and returned home to sleep.

Waking up from another nightmare and narrowly escaping from cult members who tried to break in and a centipede demon rummaging through his basement, John unlocks a storage room and confronts an illusion of Amy blankly staring at him. Seemingly falling or accepting the illusion, John kneels to her and asks why he's being targeted. Before he can plead to her for this nightmare to end (he believes all of this is a nightmare, which is debatable), a red human arm emerges from her mouth and grabs his face.

The screen fades to John stranded in The Forest. Walking around a well, he comes across a dilapidated version of the Martin House, which puts him in a depressive and emotional state. He enters inside.

Inspecting the broken mirror in the master bedroom, John thinks to himself that "they", Bob, Cindy, and Father Allred, didn't deserve "this", death, and it should've been him instead. Exploring the attic, there's a lone letter written by Dr. Morris back around September of 86', urging Bob to respond to him since he's concerned about Cindy's mental decline and mentioning of "replacements" for her miscarried twins, the same topic they heard back in Nicaragua.

This letter alone establishes that the Martin Twins were miscarried. Ending I and II roughly alludes that the twins never existed, stated by Gary himself if John ever questions him about it. However, Gary doesn't give John the full answer. Although John can read Dr. Morris' letter where he can find out the twins were never real, in the end, he kneels to two mannequins that are supposed to represent the twins in their bedroom. He raises his hands in defeat as Amy and Michael restrain him. A large red demonic hand grabs his body and steadily disappears. The screen cuts to outside, but the Martin House disappeared, and the series ends.

## Trivia

* She, surprisingly, doesn't have any audio clips or quotes. All of her personality and dialogue comes from notes in Chapter I.
* (This is trivia for the wiki page) Shoutout to Captain Howdy from the FAITH Discord Server for recreating Cindy's appearance from the family portrait in Chapter I.
