IKR, they would have known that Stan had died because he's family, and they'd probably also know that there's an imposter posing as him. There's no explanation other than one I can think of. He was a friend of the family, and I only say this because of this quote from Stan "Everything I do is for this family." And even then, is he referring to the Pines family, or the Mystery Shack family? Or are we just reading to much in depth in a show created for children?

Also, why did the Author only take Journal One? I found it kind of strange that he didn't say anything, or take the second journal.
