So, with the Mandela Police's website we got an addition to the characters, namely Adam's presumed SO, who's also a part of the Bythorne Paranonormal Society, and news flash, Mark's Sister in the group too.

After Vol. 333, is it safe to assume that the Intruder isn't a Tulpa? It seems more like he (Stanley??) tricks kids into creating Tulpas, rather than being a Tulpa himself

I honestly have no idea. Vol. 333 is centered around the night the Intruder (presumably) stole the children, but the Stanley and the creation of the Tulpas bit overall don't make much sense to me besides what I could gather. If the Intruder used the Tulpas as a medium to kidnap the children, why would he ask Adam if he remembered him? Was Adam the only child who got stolen personally by the Intruder? It's really hard to tell from the content that we have now.

Yeah... though ig it's also possible the Intruder sicced the Tulpas on the adults (the ones that didn't commit suicide) while he himself kidnapped the kids. idk

Either way I guess I'll add a description and a trope or 2 for Tulpas (rather than just leaving it as "see The Intruder"), and edit the Intruder's section so it doesn't outright say he is a Tulpa + add under the Ambiguous Situation trope about how he may or may not be a Tulpa. And maybe edit Thatcher's Follower's desc to say it's either a Type 3 OR 4 (since that one might be a Tulpa given the children's voices, but it's still not 100% confirmed)

[EDIT] Actually has it ever been confirmed that the Intruder can travel through mirrors like Tulpas supposedly can? I don't think he's ever shown to actually do that

Likewise Tulpas might not come out of TVs like the Intruder does either, otherwise Stanley wouldn't have said the Tulpa is somewhere in your house, it would've just directly popped out of the TV instead. And the community post about them only mention mirrors, not technology

Starting to think Intruder =/= Tulpas (though there might still be some kind of connection between them) and people just assumed they're the same bc of the TV and mirror destruction order
