Pronunciation Book Is The Most Interesting Mystery On The Internet Right Now

Is it hinting at a new Halo game, or a new Battlestar Galactica series, or something else entirely? Fans are trying to unravel the cryptic video countdown before time runs out.

For two years, YouTube channel Pronunciation Book made videos like this.

Short, simple pronunciation guides. It garnered tens of thousands of followers and was a genuinely useful tool for people interested in learning English.

But on April 14th 2012, Pronunciation Book uploaded "How to Ask for Help in English."

The same voice from the channel's previous pronunciation videos asks someone named "Chief" for help.

The next several videos are titled things like "How to Bargain in English" and feature similarly dark messages and exchanges from the same voice.

The contents of these videos are transcribed here.

The channel then returned to its normal pronunciation videos until July 9th, 2013, when the countdown began.

The same Pronunciation Book voice says "Something is going to happen in 77 days," and is followed by silence with some low static noises in the background.
