A nine-year-old hungry girl named Six is trapped in The Maw - a surreal underwater resort catering to the whims of sick and powerful fictional creatures. When an unexpected twist of fate offers her a chance at freedom, Six takes a journey through the bizarre and unpredictable world of The Maw, and catches a glimpse at the corrupt heart of modern happiness.

"child wants to escape and the lady wants to keep them trapped forever, how that is like a mother-daughter relationship I don't know"
Never heard of the teenage years eh?

heres my theories about little nightmares:
The painting/photo of the five women in the Lady’s quarters is not of the Lady and the “staff” of the Maw, but instead of the 4 past owners of the Maw with the Lady in the middle. Our character is named Six because she is sixth in line to become owner of the Maw. Perhaps the Lady’s name was Five?
The guests are NOT eating the children! The body bags are WAY too big for them to be the small children that inhabit the Prison. The same can be said for the room of shoes; WAY too big to be the children’s shoes. The guests are actually eating the previous guests. It has been confirmed that the guests who enter the Maw are “never seen again”. The chunks of meat seen in the kitchen and guest area are too big to be child meat so it must be meat from the previous guests.
The children seen being wrapped up by the Janitor were the ones who died on the Maw. Not killed but just died from disease or hunger. Think about it; the Maw is out at sea ALL THE TIME and with that can come some diseases and what not. After all, a Janitor is there to clean up.
Six is down in the suitcase because she has been, in a way, banished. The Lady knows that Six is the next in line to take over ownership but the Lady doesn’t want to give up her position. So she puts Six as far away from her as possible; in the bowels of the Maw. Maybe Six was originally part of the staff but when the Lady discovered that Six was next in line, she was put away. Perhaps that’s why Six has pictures inside her suitcase?
The Janitor is actually a friendly person. It seems unlikely since he captures you but he’s just doing his job. When we first see him he’s “watching” over the children in the beds. And, unlike the Chefs who will just throw you in an oven and turn it on, the Janitor just catches you. Maybe he puts you back where you came from?
The Granny is actually the Janitor’s wife.
The last part seems a bit strange, but the rest is actually a very interesting theory that fits with the rest of the information given! Well done!
Yeah I really did like this theory
The last part is wrong I think The Janitor is the Granny’s son and maybe in Six Campaign the one in the Shoe Pit was actually the Grandpa and The Lady is not Granny’s Daughter she was just hired to help the Lady take care of the children’s a long time ago so there😕
@@jeeduria3116 Just because your theory is different doesn't mean that this person is wrong.
I sometimes think that the Janitor thinks he's playing hide and seek with Six. Because he's smiling. Idk if he stops smiling at some point but he seems to be enjoying the chase. So maybe the children like to play with him. And then Six chops off his arms...
But the theory regarding that Six is named that because she's the sixth owner of the Maw is really good. I deeply believe it. However, some people call the runaway kid "Seven", and that kinda confuses me.
Continuing and now full out revealing my theory from the last video, this is a time loop, whereas when Mono eventually becomes the Thin Man, due to the dimensions she and Mono were in, Six gains her hunger and Shadow Six [spoiler alert: the secret ending where Shadow Six looks to the Maw] and that leads to Six going to the Maw in order to "eat". In the first Little Nightmares game, when Six gains the Lady's powers, I believe that the Lady IS Six. The monster that Six became is the face of the Lady during the Runaway Kid's DLC and that's why we actually don't see Six's face when she becomes that monster. So when Six does become the Lady, that is why the Lady wears a mask, in order to forget the painful memory of betraying Mono, this being shown when she doesn't want to surround herself with mirrors that reflect the monster she was. Maybe that's why she chose to turn the Runaway Kid into a gnome... Possibly being reminded of Mono when she saw him. Maybe the Lady/Six knew what her fate was and knows of the time loop they’re in, because when she is defeated, the mirror is like breaking the music box, and this is why we see a music box in the Lady’s quarters. We get that the Thin Man is Future Mono, and that’s why the Thin Man is desperate to catch or perhaps separate Mono and Six so Mono wouldn’t have to face the same fate again… And to perhaps break the time loop. If he manages to stop the loop, Mono doesn’t become the Thin Man, and Six doesn’t gain this hunger and darkness and become the Lady. As for the hanging man, maybe it IS Mono, or rather the Thin Man, BECAUSE we do not see any other TV in the maw other than the one the Janitor has and that is how he got into the Maw and possibly killed himself.
Even further, if we connect the story from the Very Little Nightmares game, in the end, the original bearer of the yellow raincoat (who is NOT Six) perishes with the Child or the Duchess character, leaving Six to escape. We see the yellow raincoat drift away, possibly how it then reaches the City. In LN2, when Six spots the raincoat, she’s reminded of the girl who saved her and decides to wear the raincoat. That would mean that the girl is also linked to the time loop, and is the one who saves Six, to where Six escapes and is captured by the Hunter.
Therefore every time the time loop begins, there will always be someone to be Mono and someone to be Six. Eventually, the new Six and Mono will come back and then become the new Thin Man and Lady. And that's why when the description of the Thin Man who is searching for something is looking for a way where this time loop can break so he and Six can be saved. Because when Six and Mono dangled at the end, Six hesitated to let go. I believe that Six didn't want to let go of Mono but she had no choice. At least that's my theory
THAT EXPLAINS WHY THE THIN MAN WANTED SIX BECAUSE THE THIN MAN WANTED SIX AGAIN
stolen comment alert
Your wrong, Six is not the lady. And the reason why The Lady is wearing a mask its because she thought that she was ugly so thats why she wears a mask cause she thought people will judge about her face being ugly. Six betrayed Mono its because at the last part on LN 2 on where Six holds Mono's hand on the place where Six betrayd Mono, its because Mono looked like Thin man but on his younger version. Six thought she is not safe to be with Mono because he sees Mono's face as the thin man so she dropped her and took his powers to get out of the TV.
Thank you for all the white and replies while the replies were only through a lot to me
So they're basically just killing themselves over and over???? or somebody highly resembling themselves?
"MAYBE WE GET A Prequel!"
LITTLE NIGHTMARES 2 TRAILER : "AM I JOKE TO U?"
Oof
I'm soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo excited for it because there are now two characters although it will be a one player game and in it you will play as the new character they had revieled the name being 'mono' and six will be helping you if you need her to do a task and with the trailer it's so interesting tho it sucks we have to wait for 2020
Mono means 1...Little nightmares 2 is coming out in August.
August 20........
No it is a prequel not a sequel
This theory with the mirror showing the lady’s ugly face... it reminds me of “the picture of Dorian gray.” The story shows a man who wanted to live forever as long as a painting of him is alive. He succeeded for a while... but then he realized that the painting looked horrible, ugly, and bloody
Oml I've read a tiny part of the book before, where his wife Sibyl Vane purposely displayed a horrible act in one of her plays. Is it a good book?
Gabe The weeb that reminds me also the Layers of Fear game.
Hell yeah it's a good book, Oscar Wilde (the author) is a genius
Junai Chocoretto in the story sibyl is an amazing actress but she is distracted by dorians beauty and messes up during her play
Also like in league of extraordinary gentlemen the villain is immortal as long as he doesn't look at his portrait it will steal his soul
And the verdict is... *ad pops up*
Me: OH COME ON
SAME!

i became so sad of the ending in the dlc. I rewatched it even though I know what happens but still. It's sad that he just suddenly died trying to offer Six the sausage to instead be eaten instead. Like why??

That’s not concept art for little nightmares. It’s a photo of a cancelled game from Tarsier Studios called “The City Of Metronome”
They cancelled it because, they thought it was too generic and so, they used some ingredients from this game and made little nightmares.
The city of metronome is also in a different universe.
someone said they actually cancelled due to the lack of good publishers.
@@gameypiettvgamergames7463 that’s also another reason why.
You're the only RUclipsr I've seen that actually has delved into the theory and story behind little nightmares. I've watched other RUclipsrs play it and it's so frustrating that they don't have the eye for detail like you lol. It's also really nice that you incorporate so many clips referring back to things if we don't remember what the scenes looked like. In my opinion, all your hard work for these theory videos is SUPER appreciated as well as effective. It's obvious that Six absorbed the powers from the Lady but I never once thought about the other things she ate! Also having you reference the comic is very nice since I'm sure a lot of people haven't ever read it or even know about it.
If there is a sequel do you plan on making more theory videos? I really hope so as these videos are just absolutely amazing to watch!
Laмira i know right ? The bit about how she learned to go thru pipes after eating the rat is really clever and also that picture in the suitcase at the very beginning of the game. I really like his theories and ''itsjustjord'' 's theories as well both seem to me the closest to what my mind would consider ''logical'' for little nightmares.
Thanks so much for the kind words. It's always fun putting pieces of the puzzle together and looking at the story from a different angle.
If there's a sequel or another game set in the same universe you bet I'll be playing it!
TheGamingBeaver Awesome! Can’t wait to see what they have in store for us 😄
Laмira ikr!!!
I totally agree with you
There's something no one has been talking about and it's driving me insane. The song at the end of the residence is the same song that lady hums. it could be the song that she's trying to recreate when she's humming by herself in her room. There is no limits to the theories that can be based off of this one bit of information. For example it could be the song she heard as a child and would sing it to the other children
They should know that....
THAT PFP! THE WHOLESOMENESS
I don't think her humming is important.
@@royalalpha643 I think it is lol. Six hums the same thing, the lady is six
"The child wants to escape and the adult wants to keep the child trapped forever. How people see that as a mother-daughter relationship. I don't know"
Boy, read that again. That's like half a theme in Tangled.
And the Lady is also aging and becoming ugly, she may have took the life force of many to stay young and beautiful. Mother Gothel anyone?
@@yellowgetbright seems like a mother gothel reference to me
One of the most condescending things I've ever heard. Like no, obviously that alone is not why people came to that conclusion. Plus it's not like abusive relationships aren't a thing in real life and fiction, so it's not that far fetched of a theory.
The lady: “Oh goodness you my child are too beautiful! YOU MUST DIEEEE”
Me: isn’t it your fault for making them pretty?
Why is this so funny to mee

That theory of the runaway kid giving six the information about the lady after she consumed him was very well thought out indeed.
I know it sounds weird, but it actually makes me feel better about six eating him. Like he wasn't just ousted just to be done with him! No there was a purpose!... hopefully his theory is true or the devs consider it!.
I suppose if they both would have been caught in the end then it probably was the only option, you could say that although the runaway kid didn’t intend to give his life up, it’s lucky he did otherwise the continuation of wrong doings would have still took place at the maw at the hands of the geisha.
Wolfsong 27: Unless course Six takes after The Lady.
Well she may as well have now that six has the geishas powers!
Wolfsong 27: She had those powers beforehand though. It's possible while not related to the Lady, she's the same kind of supernatural creature.
The achievement you get at the end of the residents could also be referring to the point where six and the runaway kid met at the end of the dephs.
The “eating things, collecting their essence” Is a good theory but one problem with that is that six was crawling through vents way before she got the rat. Other than that the theory makes total sense.
Its because the sixth sin of the deadly sins is gluttony. Gluttony is basically absurd uncontrolled eating. It was out of six's power to eat everything else. Also with little nightmares 2 coming out, the new character mono is an interesting take. Mono means one, and the first deadly sin is pride. The official little nightmares website said that Mono has a desire to finish anything he starts. Perhaps he is cursed with a sin as well?

@@derrickdaniels3955 The nome that got eaten was the Runaway Kid... In the video, the guy said the kid that gave the bread to Six was also the Runaway which isn't true.

WTF😂😂😂😂
Lol 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂

🤣🤣
Lol Lol lol😂😂😂😂😂
I look closer at the Lady's face and it does resemble's the Granny,so i think what happened is the Granny is actually the previous Lady, in "The residence" DLC we see 4 statues. What if those means each individual lady that has been in the maw, so once a Lady get's old. The Lady got replaced by the other Lady, and then when The Lady cheated on her youth form.She get's the form of the previous Lady, that's why i think The Lady resembles of the Granny
Here's my interpretation of the whole thing:
The Maw used to be run by children cuz all the levers and buttons were made at a convienient child size. This also might explain a promotional pictures of Six helping a lady in the bath. The Lady wanted a family and couldn't so she sends the Ferryman to pick up kids. The Janitor and the Granny came to the Maw to take care of the kids. The Chefs would cook the meals and the kids would serve them. Kids working at the Maw is the closest thing she has to a fully fledged family and she loves them with all her heart. The Maw is enchanted with a spell that makes the guests extremely hungry and business is booming. But one day, one guest got so hungry that they ate a kid. This made the other guests crave children meat too. So, the Lady made a desicion to turn half of the children into Gnomes who help around the Maw and half are fed to the guests so they don't eat the Gnomes. She still wanted kids so she made the Shadow Children but still wasn't happy. She adopted a little girl but she escaped. Because of the sins she had commited, feeding the children to the guests and doing black magic, mirrors started showing who she became. An ugly old woman. The Gnomes wants to escape to and the Lady can't bear to lose more kids so she made a deal with them. They would work in the engine room and they get to see their old selves again with the magic fire. Because the Granny loved the kids, she was furious when she found out. The Lady had to banish her to the depths of the Maw and the Janitor felt sorry so he began feeding her scraps. The Lady blinded the Janitor cuz she suspected that he'd end up like the Granny. He is told that half of the kids are rats and will be sent to the kitchen for sausages. He complies, sending kids he catches to the kitchen and the rest of the kids are taken care of until they get turned into Gnomes. The Lady can't bear to look at her face again so she smashes all the mirrors she could get her hands on. Then, Six arrives at the Maw and Little Nightmares happens.
Idk this is just a theory.
Edit: I edited the theory to explain some other things I had in mind.
paradiso • apple
"Granny loved the kids"
Why was she trying to kill the kid tho?
@@kirraame1193 cuz she's desperate for love. She's more unintentionally killing them
This is actually a pretty good theory
So the lady isnt full on evil she just desperate to keep her looks and kids
1:16 lol I love the sound effect
Ye I wish I could find it
Beaver, I agree that Six absorbs the essence of the things she eats but I think I know why Fear took her to the the Maw, or back to the Maw. That part of the comic that had Fear take her back to the Maw took place after Six killed and ate The Lady, but after that Six got out of the Maw, but lost her magic. That's why in the comics the guests were shocked that Six was there and why Fear took her back to the Maw as a punishment. And there was also a new lady, that Six defeats in the end of her campain, Shadow Six. That means that Six went through the same experience twice. And this makes sense that she knows what to do in the campaign, and the part of The Runaway Kid getting eaten by her, takes place on Six's second time on the Maw. Well that's just a theory, A LITTLE NIGHTMARES THEORY.
that made a little sense
It's not just a Ripoff.......
ITS A GAME-THEORY RIPOFF!

I have a little theory of my own. What if the man who hanged himself, who we assume to be the Bellman, rebelled against the Lady? First I wanna talk about the mirror Six uses to defeat the Lady. Why is it even there? It doesn't make sense that the Lady would break all mirrors except for one. Let's go back to the Bellman. I think that the Bellman is related to the Janitor. They could be related, like how the chefs are like twins, the big differences between the Janitor and the hanged man (the Bellman) connect them, the Janitor has long arms, the Bellman has long legs. And if they aren't blood related then I think that the Bellman, like the Janitor was a caretaker for the Maw. As we see in one of the concept art pictures the Maw is HUGE and as handy as the Janitor is (pun intended) he can't be everywhere at once. My theory is that the Bellman took care of some parts of the Maw. It always bugged me why does the Hiddeaway look abandoned? The Janitor is seen there but he isn't doing a very good job at taking care of the place. The only explanation I can think of is that someone else ran that place, someone who is now gone, to me that is the Bellman. So what else did the Bellman do? Well I think he was like a warden to the Prison, which is why he was hanging there and he was also the one watching from the surveillance rooms. A lot of people seem to forget about them. The first one you see is before you enter the Lair. The Janitor couldn't possibly be the one using it. The other one is in the Hideaway, which reinforces my theory about the one using those rooms to also run the Hideaway and being the hanged man (the Bellman). One more reason why I think there is someone other than the Lady who is watching is the post-credit scene in the DLC. In it we see that the credits where played on a TV. Furthermore to me it seemed that someone was watching the whole DLC on that TV, the chair, the cigarettes etc. And finally the figure that appears in the TV, it has long legs and a hat that kind of resembles that of the Janitor. I think that person is also the hanged man. This brings us to the conclusion that the hanged man, who we assume to be the Bellman, stood against the Lady, that's why he was killed and it was made to look like suicide (another theory which says that the chair is too small and should've been kicked to the ground if it really was suicide). But before he died he left a mirror in the Lady's quarters and left a clue (the hidden last image in the surveilance room before the Lair where the mirror Six uses to kill the Lady is shown) in hope that one day a kid will escape and defeat the Lady, doing what the poor Bellman could not.
Amazing theory

Has anyone else noticed that when the runaway kid saw the lady's reflection we only see the lady's reflection opening her mouth and screaming not actually the lady's mouth opening and and screaming?
Beaver, do another theory video if you see this, it's worth the mention, pls
I noticed that too, and I guess it meant that, for what the Lady truly is, it's her inner anger and greed screaming at the child (if they really are the source of her youth). Probably because her secret was discovered, her reflection screamed, while she, her physical appearance, didn't 'scream' because of the fact that she truly still wants to care for children. But she knows that she just can't do that anymore, because her vanity gets in the way and her true self is extremely greedy in wanting to keep herself beautiful despite not being able to see herself as one anymore. It became a curse for her, basically. I guess.
Oh yeah maybe the the lady is the granny!

It could be she's cursed to look ugly in any mirror she looks at

The kid that gave Six the bread wasn't the Runway Kid, he had escaped before Six made it to that point in the game.
He is the runaway kid
Sure?
Eric Jennings
Someone's in denial...
I was thinking that too. In the DLC when you play as the runaway kid, theres never a point where you're just sitting there waiting to throw bread. The only time you see 6 is in the 3rd DLC that takes place in the mansion, where you use the giant eye and look through all the places you've been, seeing 6 in the shoe room. It would make sense for him to be the one who gives 6 the bread just so theres a connection between the 2, but seeing as how far ahead of 6 he was, I just dont see how thats possible.
Yeah, the timeline does not work at all for the Runaway to be the one that gave her bread. I figured after playing all of the DLCs he would drop that theory. The DLCs give you clues as to when things line up between the two stories. No matter how you look at it, the Bread Kid and the Runaway kid can not be the same person.
oh man, I remember watching these when they first came out with my best friend... And now there's little nightmares 2
DAMN THE NOSTALGIA
Lady : Six calm don't I'm not Gona kill you yet
Six : ???
Lady : *Yet* * DABS *
My 3 theories
Theory 1 - Six is actually the 6th monster of the Maw.
1. The Janitor
2 & 3. The cooks/twins
4. The Lady
5. The Granny
6. Six
(This is more of a guess than a theory.)
Theory 2. Six is actually a Wendigo. A wendigo can be created anytime someone commits an act of cannibalism of any kind. A Wendigo is a creature that is said to have an insatiable lust for blood and
are never satisfied no matter how much they consume. In some tales the Wendigo can take the power/abilities of those they
consume. (This theory is supported if the meat Six eats at the begins is in fact human flesh.)
Theory 3. The Lady is in fact the Baba Yaga. Now hear me out of this.
The Baba Yaga was once a beautiful lady who sold her soul for immortality at a great price. The Baba Yaga is a supernatural
being that appears as a deformed and/or ferocious-looking woman. The Baba Yaga eats/consumes small children to steal their
youth. She tends to hide her true appearance by wearing a mask/disguise as she is ashamed of what she has become. The BabaYaga may help or hinder those that encounter or seek her out and may play a maternal role. The Baba Yaga commonly appears
as either a donor, villain, or may be altogether ambiguous. She is enigmatic and often exhibits striking ambiguity. The Baba Yaga is seen as a many-faceted figure, capable of inspiring people to see her as a Cloud, Moon, Death, Winter, Snake, Bird, Pelican,
Earth Goddess, totemic matriarchal ancestress, female initiator, phallic mother, or archetypal image. She also is said to live in a
house with only one door that resembles a mouth. The house is able to uproot itself and move freely walking with the legs of a
chicken. I mean it's a stretch but, you never actually see the bottom of the maw. For those who know the tale yes I know she is
typically seen in the forest, but why can't she just be a new spin of the tale and reside at sea? (I strongly believe in this theory as
there are a lot of similarities.)
Oh! That's briliant !!!
*clicks* Noice
Baba yaga comes in night, little children sleep at eight...
Wendigos exist up north buddy in Native folklore
Josh Maroon if this theory 1 is correct then the first monster would be
1 lady
1,2,3,4 and 5 that would be the cooks, the janitor and the granny
6 six
7 the nomes
I’m still bewildered that your theory about the Runaway Kid turning into the gnome that was killed by Six was spot on right...That was freaky, in a cool way though 😎
I've never played Little Nightmares, but I watched gameplay and researched the lore and story, so I'm excited for LN2
Omg at 1:15 I actually died, what was that scream😂
I think it’s actually James in another quality cosplay..
SHINEEEE!!!!!!!
Nockrow yup
NO NOT AT ALL
🐔
Can Six turn the Nomes back into children now that she has The Lady's dark powers? And is Six more powerful than the lady when the lady had the dark powers? Would that mean if they make a Little Nightmares 2 that Six will be the final boss like the lady!? 😱
Tage Robin actually there's another dlc planed
Roxas darkrath there is?
dun dun DUUUUN
Tage Robin 😩😩😩😩😩😩🙈🙈🙈🙈
But six is a kid so she might be not as strong as the lady but powerful also six is the main character who escapes
Wow! Amazing elaboration of the Little Nightmares universe. Appreciate it!
13:27 that’s actually art from another Tarsier Studios game titled, “ the city of metronome.”
This was a sad end to a glorious game...
Oscar Sarceno he said it wasn't the end!!
Not the end of the game, just the end of the run away kids story, much more to be explored in the maw and outside of it
Tom Maitland you're right...I hope I new story comes along soon.
Tom Maitland nah the end of the first game. Trust me there will be a sequal but it will probably be a while before it comes out tho
Fuck you sorry
Is Six the Lady’s daughter? And the answer is-
*time for an add*
Dang it.
*video continues to answer*
WHY!!!
Radiant_Fire yes the lady is six’s mother
I loved this video , and now I understood the story , thank you friend 🌺✨
This person, explained the nightmare in so much details that I have no more questions! Really excellent explanation! Keep it up..! There is only one wish to Tarsier Studios is that to release Little Nightmare III .. cuz "NIGHTMARES AREN'T OVER"
NO BEAVER SHE JUST FRENCH KISSED HIM SO HARD HE PASSED OUT! (Thanks for someone giving me the chance to do this. You know who u r)
Finally another theory! But not just any theory...ITS A BEAVER THEORY!!!!
TROLLINATOR 5000, more like a dammmm theory... no... ok then, bye....
Every time he says Beaver theory I keep thinking back to the Beaver fever episode of Renn and Stimpy.
matpat
TROLLINATOR 5000 that theory was said by matpat but he did not say beaver theory
TROLLINATOR 5000 Is that supposed to be reference to game theory or film theory because I don’t think it really funny
Anyone watching in 2021 after little nightmares 2
Yo, here
Yeah
Yeah
Me
Wdy expect
I love juicy explanations like these and I don't know why
The theory was very nice. Well done once again. However there is something very important that i think you missed.
And that's that the runaway kid was never confirmed to be the kid who gave six the bread. In fact it would be nearly impossible for Runaway to have been the same kid. (Not only did he escape before six, his whole ordeal was observed and we would have seen him feed six earlier in the dlc at some point.)
And without Runaway being the bread kid the ending trophy "we'll meet again" doesn't make much sense. (Because neither kids have had any real interaction with each other throughout game.) Or at least it wouldn't, UNLESS it wasn't referring to an encounter that's already happened; but rather foreshadowing a reunion that has yet to have taken place in the game.
In fact maybe, just maybe, the trophy wasn't referencing Runaway and Six. It was a message between Runaway and the players.
Not a requiem for a dead character, but a promise that you will see them again.
And yes, i realize that's a bit of a far reach. But you never actually see the Runaway die- even if it is heavily implied. And we've already seen spirit like aberrations that seem to prove a soul can cling to the world even after death. In a world as strange and terrifying as the one Little Nightmares has created its not much more of a stretch to believe that the Runaway kid is still around- in some shape or form. And i still hold on to the hope that he still has a part to play in whatever comes next.
TiggerMusica that's EXACTLY what I thot, lol! 😆
Right. Cause there was a part in one of RK's DLC'S where you find a room and can see Six in the twins chef's kitchen on camera(think it was the kitchen haven't played the previous ones again) and then when RK is trapped by the Janitor he was the kid in the cage that we see taken away after Six tried to eat the food inside the cage and was trapped as well. So their stories were definitely happening at the same time more or less. I think as the nome he tried to give her the sausage cause he saw she was hungry. Don't think it had anything to do with the lunchroom kid. I think RK had been through so much and saw some of what Six had been through as well and wanted to do anything to help her escape since he couldn't.
And you're right about that if the lunchroom kid was RK we should have seen him feed her at some point and at no point do we even see RK interact with food until he becomes the nome.
well they did see eachother in the cages
What’s creepy is that there’s a tv in a part of the game that you need to distract the janitor with and then a lyric of the tv is “he’s gone he’s gone he hung” and at the beginning of the game you see someone hung could he be the lady’s husband...?
8:21 impeccable timing to place an ad 😅
I have learnt something grand about the Lady.
That the lady, is in fact, actually...
... a female
OMG A REALLY BIG DISCOVERY
OHMYGHOD REALLY?!?!?!?
Wow ...you finally accomplished something
Well no shit right
REALLY?
A theory that I have about the post that you talked about is that seeing that moms want their children to stay children forever that could be why the lady is keeping the children and the children want to leave and be adults like any kid wood
it's official: Six is a power-taking vampire.
Your theories really make a lot of sense
now that six has the power of the witch, she shouldve turn those gnomes back into their original state
True but does Six even care at all about the other children. Six seems only worried about herself.
Spaced out Nerds shelfish !!!
ITS AN AMAZING THEORY (btw who ever is reading this i hope you have an amazing rest of your day/night
**WARNING: THIS COMMENT IS LONG AJD MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS AND A LOT OF CRAZY SPECULATION!!!**
So I just had a random theory:
• In Very Little Nightmares, a prequel to the game, we see a girl known as the Pretender living in a mansion called the Nest. Apart from her two servants, the Craftsman and the Butler, her only company are a bunch of dolls. Near the end of the game we see her scolding a doll (that the player had to remove from its seat, which is the possible answer to her anger), and later on we see her crying on a bench, the doll torn into pieces before her. This doll bears a striking resemblance to a child the player frees near the beginning of the game, so it is possible the Craftsman caught them and turned them into a doll.
• Little Nightmares 2 will feature a character known as the Sadistic Teacher, or the Teacher. A character concept image of her states she has an ability to spot troublemakers, and that her class is full of well-behaved children.
• In Little Nightmares, we see the Lady turn the Runaway Kid into a gnome after he saw her ugly reflection.
The three of them seem to resemble each other in their desire for control. The Pretender is angry at a doll for not sitting on its place and the Teacher punishes troublemakers. What does the Teacher do, probably kill them; we know the Pretender destroys the "disobedient" dolls. (In quotations because dolls can't disobey).
The punishment for seeing the Lady's reflection is to be turned into a gnome, but there seem to be a lot of gnomes everywhere. I don't think every single one of them happened to have the chance to see her reflection. My theory is: similar to the Pretender and the Teacher, being turned into a gnome is the punishment for being a troublemaker, not just seeing her reflection. Think about it this way:
When the Janitor catches you, he doesn't kill you. But he doesn't deliver you back to your cell; instead, he takes you to the Lady, or puts you in a lift or something that delivers you to her. Then, as punishment for causing trouble, she turns you into a gnome.
Furthermore, when she spots you wandering her Residence, she doesn't kill you; you don't see what happens exactly so you'd asume that's what she does, but instead what I believe she does is that she turns you into a gnome.
The Chefs and the Guests both see you as a meal, but they do not mind the gnomes. We see that the only enemies in the Lair and the Prison (the first two levels of the game, not in order btw) are Leeches and the Janitor. The Leeches are pests, but the Janitor may as well be not only a janitor, but a caretaker for the children, and also a guardian (they mean the same thing, don't they). I mean, before we choped his arms off, Roger boi looked like he could stand toe-to-toe with the Chefs and the Guests, slapping them out of the way with his serpent-like arms. He was harmless (and later armless) towards the children, but didn't allow the Guests or the Chefs into their cells because they would eat them without a second thought, and they were the Lady's property. However, if a child misbehaved, the Janitor would take them to the Lady, who would twist their bodies into gnomes, mushroom-like creatures regarded as pests by the rest of the inhabitants of the Maw. Their unappealing appeareance may please the Lady, knowing they wouldn't be as beautiful and youthful as before, and she would enslave them, forcing them to feed coal to the furnace, and only rewarded with a fire which allowed them to gaze into their past forms.
The Granny may have been a caretaker of the children once: she cared for them while the Janitor keot the cells clean and any of the Guests or Chefs away from them. But perhaps the Granny was too friendly, too forgiving: if she caught children trying to escape she would give them another chance, or maybe even help them: she is, after all, able to swim very fast. What if she helped the children escape, giving them a ride toward a safe port? But she was spotted through the ever-watchful eyes, and in order to avoid the Lady's wrath, she fled to the Depths. Once there, she became obsessed with her desire to help them escape, and the reason she drags you down is because she feels she's saving you, having gone a little mad and forgetting that children can't breathe underwater. The Janitor may have been close to her in a friendly manner, and kept feeding her fishtails. However, not wanting to suffer the same fate, he'd be completely loyal to the Lady's orders, and bring misbehaving children to her, so they would be transformed into gnomes.
The Hanging Man's fate could've been similar to the Granny's, but he couldn't hide from the Lady's wrath like the Granny did. What I imagine is that the Hanging Man is responsible for hiding Six away in the suitcase. Six's nightmare at the start of the game could be a flashback to the day the Hanging Man was killed. As many have pointed out, the chair below him is quite far from his feet to have been his support, and had it been the case, the chair would be nore likely to have fallen, not continue to stand. Perhaps, the chair and the letter were left there by the Lady as an excuse. An excuse to who? Six? Perhaps. She may want to lure Six toward her so she can punish her for misbehaving. But I am not sure about this one. You can take it with a grain of salt.
But even after all that rambling, I still have something else to say. Let's think for a moment that the Lady uses the youth of children to become beautiful, the gruesome acts she performs in order to achieve this causing her reflection to become haggard and hideous. If this was so, then that would mean she specifically fed off the youth of troublemakers, robbing them of their human forms and turning them into gnomes, slaves and pests that wander the Maw. But what about the good children? What about the kids that are nice?
Well, and this is the most highly speculative part of my huge comment, I believe they're turned into the shadow children. Why do I believe this? Well, the gnomes, the troublemakers, are many, make some pig-like noises, and are scattered across the Maw, and even found other places like the Nest, but there are little to zero of them in the Residence, the Lady's personal space. The shadow children, compared in numbers to the gnomes, are few, have children voices (their giggles), and they're found exclusively on the Residence.
Now, the Lady robs them of their human forms and youth in order to become beautiful herself, but even if you don't believe this, the theory about the children's fates can still apply. The bad children are turned into gnomes, and the good children, into shadows made out of the Lady's magic. However, unlike the gnomes, which are, again, mushroom-like and treated as slaves, the shadow children are brought to live with the Lady at the Residence. Furthermore, they are gifted with a porcelain mask resembling the Lady's own mask. The mask, compared to her face if we look at her character file and portraits, looks similar to her face. She thinks of her face as beautiful, obviously, and gifts these good children with what she (and them) considers to be a beautiful face. The gnomes don't have faces: their heads are hidden underneath their cone hats, or maybe the cone hats are their heads. The shadow children wouldn't have faces either, if it weren't for their masks, and thus they are all not only rewarded with coming out of the prison and being installed in the opulent Residence, but also gifted with faces, pretty faces. To them, this is something like a promotion, a prize.
Another detail which could be used to further prove this hypotesis is the books. The books are speculated to be the source of the Lady's knowledge on magic, but let's not forget the shadow children are made of that magic too. The point I'm trying to make here is that in the Prison there are little to no books for the children to read, while the shadow children have plenty of them all over the place, similar to how a higher class would have more opportunities of having more educated children. But being honest, while this is a nice detail, I don't think it's too relevant, so take this one with like, a spoonful of salt.
Of course, I called the shadow children the "good kids" and the gnomes the troublemakers or the "bad kids," but this was just for your understanding and to explain it using the Lady's perspective: we know the gnomes are actually the good kids, who help others escape the cruelty of the Maw through their warning drawings, and that the shadow children are evil, and according to my hypothesis, spoiled. See how the gnomes leave those drawings for you to watch out, and the shadow children actually grab and stop you from progressing.
This theory could also explain why are there gnomes in the Nest: if they were troublemakers, which is the Maw word for "child who wants to escape a cruel reality," it would make sense they would take any chance they had to leap off the Maw and into whatever island they found. Sure, the Nest is barely any better than the Maw, but at least they managed to escape. Which makes the Runaway Kid's fate even sadder, considering he could've had the chance to escape, even as a gnome.
The comment was long and I apologize. I hope you could understand it all.

Despite the fact that the Fan Wiki states that Six deduces The Lady's weakness and that Six isn't ordinary, it actually makes much more sense that Six can absorb one's knowledge and memories/gains them after killing them especially since that by blood they aren't related and while one would be in a panic rushing to safety from the Lady, you'd certainly notice all those broken mirrors, and alongside with The Runaway Kid's knowledge & perhaps memories and the fact that that Mirror Six uses, is the *_only unbroken mirror_* of course she'd easily (kinda) figure out that a mirror was the Lady's weakness, but why was that Mirror alone unbroken, that's a question in need of answering.
My own theory is that the Lady wants Six gone because Six was sent in the Maw to take the Lady's place (it would explain her strange hunger the runaway kid lacked, Six is not "normal" the same way the Lady isn't) . The Lady we see is turning into a "Granny " so a replacement must be found as the Maw needs a Lady to control it...and maybe the Lady doesn't want to be substituted for two reasons: she would lose her beauty and powers AND she would be thrown away like the previous Lady had been, and her pride could not stand it. Thus Six (The sixth "Lady") had to go, one way or another...but that is just my theory! A GAME theory! XD XD XD XD XD XD
how many lady they were before ? maybe she is the 6th lady :)
hmm this theory seem to fit to her name as "six"
@@amazingle7431 totaly as every one seem to be named for what theyr are, the janitor, the twin coock, the lady, the run away kid, so 6 have to be the 6th of something, but in think it go darker than that, why the only normal being around have commited sucide ? how can she get "power" everytime she eat something ? and why she or he dont give a crap of his surronding ?
tremor230 lel
Still better than what he said... He got all wrong.
There better be *_maw_* DLCs
ikr i need a good ending fml
Omg best joke of 2018🤣
Another thing could be that Six may have been an apprentice of the Lady cast away because the Lady felt threatened by Six, or Six may have failed by the Lady's standards. The reason Six was taken by the ferryman, and the other children taken by the ferryman could've also been apprentices as well but failed the tests and didn't meet the requirements.
Idk, just a thought.
already this makes more sense then any theory I have ever heard

No worries, sometimes text/comments lack emotion so the message sometimes gets confusing :) Thank You!
LuN-Uh ATIC *you don’t have to do it like this*
This kinda reminds me of hocus pocus, where the witches take the youth of the children away by magic,making the three sisters young forever, also leading to the childs death.but one childs youth doesn't last forever, thats why they continued to take children away. The reason why im saying this is that your theory is very similar to this.
Damn gaming you are one good theorist and your voice is so damn calming
The fact that the keyhole looks like a gnoom
AND THA VERDICT IS!!!!!!

I love going back to old videos like this, hearing things like "maybe we'll get a sequel". The THIRD was announced a few days ago❤
You Have Such Good Theories!! I Litterally Cried In The Last DLC... But Im Really Shocked That Six Istnt Really Her Daughter. So Many Good Theories!! All Very Questionable! 💗💗💗👍
This is so interesting. It can be read so many different ways. On the topic of a sequel, I thought it would be interesting if you played as a character, and then find out it is the geisha, as we get more information about her and the others in the maw. Or even play as a child that shows how the geisha came to be like this. I really hope they do a sequel, or another DLC.
13:47’
And until maw is revealed to us
It’s sad that if the time loop theory is correct, six turns into the lady once again for the next six to come along and eat the runaway kid once more only for it to repeat, meaning the runaway kid will continue to die over and over in vein
He was my favorite out of the bunch
Run away kid rip :(
He seid the run away kid know the girls weakness
The Meg yeah but it was worth it if he didn’t die they’d all die
