This article is a chronological list of the events that occur in the "Marble Hornets" universe. The list is split into several sections according to when the events occurred, rather than the order of entries as published. It is not recommended to use this as a guide for one's first viewing of the series, as it contains major spoilers. If the ToTheArk videos are of no interest to you, you can simply watch the Entries in numerical order.

    ◾Entry #17: Jay, Alex, and Tim do a run-through of a scene at Brian's house, while the Operator stands directly outside the window. Jay complains that the room is very cold, although Alex doesn't seem to notice. Again, Jay claims not to remember these events taking place.

    ◾Entry #55: Alex, Tim, and Brian discuss an abandoned doctor's office that could potentially be used as a filming location.

    ◾Entry #2: Late at night, Alex drives along an isolated road, looking for the tall figure that scared off his dog Rocky during a walk.

   ◾Entry #4:(possibly same night): Alex encounters the Operator once again in the abandoned playground.

   ◾Entry #3: Alex begins constantly filming himself at all times.

   ◾Entry #6 (possibly the same night): More footage of the Operator outside the house, circling past the windows.

   ◾Entry #10: Alex runs through the woods at night, pursued by the Operator.

   ◾Entry #11: One night, Alex awakens and goes downstairs to check outside the windows before returning to bed, unaware that the Operator is close by.

   ◾Entry #14: The Operator enters Alex's room at night. Half an hour later, Alex sits in front of the camera with a bloody wound on his forehead, then changes the tape.

  ◾Entry #57: Tim runs through the abandoned building at night, hiding from Alex.

  ◾Entry #51 (56-42): Alex and Brian film scenes at the burned-out building, where Brian is attacked by the Operator. After coming to, Brian searches for Alex, finding Tim coughing in one of the rooms.

  ◾Entry #22: Alex explores an unidentified, run-down building with Seth. Seth is attacked, and Alex wakes up at his home later with the camera. Alex films a "confession," claiming that everyone else who worked on the film is "gone," and resolving to burn the tapes and move away.

  ◾Entry #71: At Jay's insistence, Alex gives the tapes to Jay after making him promise to burn them and never mention the project to Alex again. Alex then falls out of contact with Jay and the rest of the crew for many years. However, the video footage of this encounter differs from Jay's own recollection.
