These pages are deticated to one of the first main Secrets of Sonic pages, suprisingly named "Secrets of Sonic the Hedgehog", or SoStH. It was originally maintained by André Dirk, a laid back Western Australian who liked to confuse and irritate the easily confused and irritable. Unlike Simon Wai, creator of the "Sonic 2 Beta page" who found the Sonic 2 BETA ROM, Andre was the first to show new, in-game pictures of the game through his 'friend's copy' of Sonic 2 Beta. Using a camera back in 1998, Andre took pictures of Hidden Palace Zone, and Wood Zone, as well as pictures of Casino Night Zone.

Using Microsoft Publisher, Andre created the website to show to the world. He would also go on to sell his copies of Sonic 2 Beta for a fair wad of cash.

"Older SoStH" - June 29th 1999 - This is a very old version of the webpage, the version which has camera images of Sonic 2 Beta, as well as a lot of older pictures from the time. It's very interesting to read. Ignore the front page, it was a backup at the time because Andre was caught in some hacking scam, which was later proved to be false and was free to continue his page.

"SoStH" - April 20th 2001 - Later in life Andre gave up on SoStH, this was when Sonic Area 51 and Sonic Cult were suurfacing as big informants on Secrets in Sonic games. "Knuckles the Echidna" took over, but unfortunately didn't do much with the website, and ended up leaving it in capsule mode.
