Random thoughts to spur on speculation:
With the mention of the rumor echo chamber and my attempt to find an original that matched with the Midvale clue in mind, I figured it would be prudent to mention the potential for confusing an original with an IP. There is an echo chamber. Small pieces of information can be misinterpreted and confused. Think 2018 Lost Boys vs. Vamp ‘85. Others have occurred. Example: Night of the Living Dead popped up as a rumor due to the Dead Exposure masks. So, rumors we are hearing now that seem to be IPs may lead us to potential originals later.
Just some food for thought. Something to keep in mind, especially if the rumored IP/Original ratio holds. We’ve definitely had more than 4 IPs in the clue list.
