The Wilson Wolfe Affair is an ARG by Simulacra Games, created to coincide with their upcoming game of the same name. It heavily revolves around a package of old school memorabilia that gets delivered to participants, which secretly hides puzzles that will advance the ARG.
Beginning
On September 26th, 2017, the Simulacra Games YouTube channel posted this video to promote their game, with the title "Mad Scientist Wilson." In addition, their social media accounts also tweeted an unboxing gif, which explained the story of the ARG and the types of puzzles to expect.
Mad Scientist Wilson
One player discovered that the audio of [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QFo1n_MhePE Mad Scientist Wilson) was a reversed, raspy voice telling a message, which is believed to be:
Yes Ben, Ben. I'm sorry we couldn't meet in person, but I had my friends in the movie business make a small film for you instead. I understand that you wish to join us. Well, you know there are rules you can expect, but I believe in the carrot and the stick, and I have taken something to motivate you. So why don't you call me when you know what to do? In the meantime, we will take care of the desserts. [Music plays]
As of October 20, it is unclear what the relevance of this message is.
The Spooky Salesman
On October 19, 2017, a new video was posted to the Simulacra Games Youtube channel, titled "The Spooky Salesman." Two users discovered out of place frames containing text at 0:35 and 1:21. Both "letters" are stamped with the text "The Order of the Third Circle." The frame at 0:35 contains the text:

Players discovered that, when the text is organized into an 11 by 13 grid, the following message is revealed:
First frame is the opening tree shot. Second frame is old Wilson in hell. Third frame is the damp rainy boneyard. Fourth frame the man at the bell
This suggests that various clues are hidden throughout the second video, as the shots described are all present within it. The order in the video is different however, going Tree shot --> Boneyard --> Man at Bell --> Hell these frames are shown below:
