Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Alan Long is an Alternate Reality Game and Urban Fantasy web series. Loosely based on the "What is Twigs?" ARG, the series follows two teenagers as they are stalked by a cult of masked people and an unseen monster that may or may not exist.The titular hero of the series, Alan, comes home one day to find his house broken into. Upon further inspection, he discovers that the perpetrator is still inside of his house and is meddling with his stuff. He decides to use an old camera to find the guy. Then things get weird.The associated Character Blog on Twitter is here., and the companion channels can be found here and here.

Arc Symbol: The symbol appearing in the channel picture; Return to the Trail shows that drawing it on the ground in the trail causes Teleport Spam.

Arbitrary Skepticism: Alan and Vincent hold that belief that Twigs doesn't exist for the first half of season 1 despite having literally been Teleport Spammed and given Laser-Guided Amnesia.

Unreliable Narrator: Alan and Vincent have no video proof of Twigs even existing and believe that the viewer's should just take their word for it.

comment
Breather Episode: Most Wham Episodes are followed by one. Examples include March Update, Reconciliation, and Mail. Subverted with Memento Mori. Though it appears to be a normal "what are we going to do next" episode, it's actually about Alan and Vincent discussing the implications of Jackson's apparent death.

Alien Geometries: The trail is implied to be this. Though Alan claims it's only a couple of miles in size, the cuts in Return to the Trail imply that he and Vincent walk through it for hours.

Mind Screw: The series features Alien Geometries and an Eldritch Abomination that may not even exist. And that's only the tip of the iceberg.
