--------
Born in Huntsville
Had a twin brother named North who was older by 10 minutes
Got really into movies and tv series at a young age and would rewatch tapes, DVDs, and eventually full series box sets over and over.
Had dreams and ambitions to be a screenwriter and make his own films, and after getting an old camera at a local yard sale he began to make his own short films using Barbies and other figures bought at yard sales whenever someone in town had one.
Started to upload these online to his Myspace page during his freshman year of high school before uploading them to a new video sharing platform called YouTube a year later.
At the time they didn't garner many views
He began to make other types of videos in high school, still focused on his love of movies and tv and in his senior year he started having friends on as guests on one of the series he did on his channel, one that eventually would become a video podcast with an audio only companion on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.
During high school his YouTube Channel didn't get to over 10k subscribers, but back then that wasn't too bad. Especially for something that was pretty much just a hobby.
He never was popular in school, some people even found him weird because of his little obsession, but he still managed to be invited to parties and had his own circle of friends, some of which were actually in the popular crowd.
North had been the one out of the two of them who was actually cool and popular
They were accepted into film school and after graduating from Huntsville High Easton packed up his bag to move to New Jersey in order to transit into the city for classes because living in New York proper is expensive as fuck.
At the same time he was going off to film school, North was going off to basic training. The two kept in contact until his brother's death a year later.
While the quantity of his videos on YouTube started to slow down during this time, the quality of them only increased as he started to incorporate what he was learning in school into them. No longer posting multiple 5 or 10 minute videos a week, but rather longer more thought out essay type pieces. As well as continuing to post up short films here and there. The channel had continued to steadily grow during this time, but still never broke 100k.
Then Easton made the video that would put them on the map. In 2011 he released a video theorizing that the character of Kirby Reed had survived the events of Scream 4. Too bad he got stuck in Huntsville again before learning all those years later that this theory was in fact correct.
The channel only gained traction from there. Uploads both new and old started receiving views in the 100s of thousands and into to the millions, as the platform in general grew so did his subscriber count. Within two years of that video being released he had over a million subscribers.
After having spent the past couple years working on sets he quit to start focusing mainly on his channel. Hiring on friends he had made in film school to do animations and editing.
By the time Easton was 25 it was a full-fledged operation.
His popularity only grew over the next few years.
For a real life comparison of the type of content they made think MatPat/Film Theorist
They had been so wrapped up in everything going on with their channel that they hadn't noticed that they hadn't talked to their parents or any of their friends back home in years. Calls went to voicemail that were never returned. Emails were never responded to. Even texts went un-read.
Sure, maybe he could have reached out more than he was trying to, but every single person from back then ignoring them?
It wasn't until Easton started checking his old facebook account to notice that most of them didn't have updates past April 26, 2012. The ones who had had locations other than Huntsville, and even some of them had stopped posting abruptly. Sure, he didn't post on his own anymore, but these were dates from when the social media platform was still popular.
He packed up his car headed back home for the first time since his brother's funeral in 2009. Completely unprepared for what was awaiting him.
Both parents dead, having been among those that died when the monsters came, and a house that had long been a pile of ashes.
They went to stay at the bed and breakfast, finding it was owned by someone who had been a friend back during their youth. He took a job as the manager, using part of his earnings to pay for his room and board.
Has been back in Huntsville for 7 months. There are some things, he's gotten used to, but to say they were used to everything would be a lie.
Over his time here he has continued to develop theories. No longer just having to do with movies and series like in the past, but also now about the town and the people in it.
Sure he no longer has the massive platform he once did, but the theorist inside him can't just go unfulfilled.

SPOTTED at the met steps wearing last season’s jimmy choos ? i’d leave the steps in the next 24 hours before nepoupdates catches them ! if it were me , i’d definitely go back and review the checklist of golden rules.
oswald brenner darren barnet , harlowe brenner’s brother wc
darren barnet. he/him. cis man. › spotted at the met steps , oswald brenner , most likely listening to feels like we only go backwards by tame impala with their airpods pro . the twenty-nine year old gained quite a reputation , known to be -underestimated yet +charismatic to anyone who knows them . you’ll easily spot them when you hear about vinyl record playing upbeat tunes , candid laughter captured in polaroids , nurturing plants with a mix of tender care and a bit of clumsiness , infectious laughter echoing through the room , followed by james by atkinsons . latest nepoupdates article talks about a heated argument that allegedly took place during a podcast recording between ozzie and another well-known celebrity , the episode reportedly got so intense that it had to be edited before airing , but i guess any reputation is good reputation . ( issa me alicia . )
