    I think that the whole “let me in” phrase that Wally says, might not be as sinister as the phrasing seems. Whenever Wally says this, he seems panicked, like he wants out of whatever’s he’s trapped in. Home has trapped Wally in the center of the spiral, and Wally wants out

      I've seen some autistic folks say they feel very represented by Wally Darling, as the enuciated and processing way he speaks is how they themselves speak when not masking. Sad they're feeling hurt when folks call it creepy, but horror games will horror. The creator is openly trying to make a very inclusive and imo visually beautiful concept, so I like the idea of his nonconventional voice having nothing to do with the Unending Horrors to come lol.

      I was kinda surprised that Game Theory still thinks that at least one part of Wally is evil, especially after all of the video clips where he's nonverbal and all of his friends are concerned. It really seems like the stuff he's doing is a red herring. Over at Night Mind's video we were all talking about Wally is most likely a victim somehow.

    I have a theory that Wally isn't trying to indoctrinate us, but simply communicate with us. The Question Answerer seeing Wally and the phone in his dream, I think Wally was just trying to talk to them. With the guestbook being closed, Wally can't talk to us like he used to. I think he misses "talking" to a real person, and now found someone who he can talk to.

      This makes a lot of sense - after all, Wally's role in the cast was to be the audience surrogate, and would talk to the audience in his painting segments. In a way, it's been even longer since he lasted talked to anybody - since the show went off the air... he must be lonely...

  • @leighsartworks
    @leighsartworks 9 месяцев назад +19

    Throwing my own theory in here. I believe Welcome Home is a story about isolation and loneliness, going hand in hand, too, with the mental illness aspect Clown is displaying in these characters. On the website, it makes a comment at one point about how the episodes of Welcome Home from the 70s only had Wally interacting with the audience. He'd go around and learn new lessons, but the other characters were never also trying to teach an audience these things - only Wally. And then the show was taken off the air, and NO ONE remembers it. Wally Darling's puppet is the only puppet found (or they found the design from the original show and re-made it for the exhibit), all of the others have been lost or damaged. Because we mostly see the gang as 2D drawings, we forget that on the show they were entirely puppets, and the 2D aspect was a marketing choice.
    So, the puppets are destroyed and lost and the only one left is Wally. On the neighborhood tab where you can click on the houses and read about the characters, Wally (and the secret 'you') is the only one referred to in the present-tense. Everyone else is gone. Wally and House are all alone. I don't think Wally reaching out is trying to be malevolent or creepy - he's been either confirmed as autistic or referenced as being autistic by Clown - he's just been alone for so long, and he wants new friends and somebody, ANYBODY to be with. The entire Welcome Home show is based around all of them being friends and playing together, being together, even if Wally has nothing to say (like in the video clips where we see through his eyes as his friends talk - he just wants to be around them even if he doesn't feel like speaking).
    I don't really have an explanation for why the paint makes the Question Answerer mad, but I think Wally appearing in their dreams with the phone, watching and waiting for them to pick it up as it rings endlessly, is just a cry for help. For companionship. For a friend. A friend other than House, from outside the neighborhood. Because, after you spend so long inside your house, you just need to get out.

    There’s something I noticed that supports this idea of Wally being used or controlled by home.
    Every character has a colored vinyl. Eddie’s is purple, Barbary’s is blue, etc. these are used in the neighborhood when you wanna hear a characters catchphrase or voice, and are shown in the playfellow exhibition when talking about characters voice recordings. Wally’s color is red. When you click on the drawings on the pages, you get a dark red vinyl. This is similar to Wally’s, but it isn’t. It’s a dark red (shades do count as different characters because Julie is a light red, like pink). Even if it’s Wally’s voice, it’s showing a different character. I believe this is home. The vinyl shows this is home talking, using Wally to speak to us, controlling him.

      edit:
      I JUST REMEMBERED THE CROQUET GAME- wally went over to ask if home would play croquet, how tf does a house play croquet? in 'just so' they say sure home can play croquet with them, and wally is speaking strangely again, and they go set up the game in home's front yard--supposedly so home can see the game, then use wally as his player? so wally's body is how home plays the game, while seeing thru so many eyes, not just its own and wallys, as we know--itd be easy enough to play that way, and makes sense that home is the one who wants to learn about the world so much, too!
      and it kinda fits with the two wallys idea, that wally is himself but also home, hence why wally wants to bring home to howdy's to get 'his own hot dog' bc home has only ever experienced a hot dog thru wally eating them, and never had its own, omg

    Btw if you listen to the conversation between Sally and Howdy at the bodega, you can pick up that the other neighbors don’t actually know they’re puppets. The discrepancy between Sally’s grocery list and what Howdy actually gives her has me suspicious.

    I feel like it isn't as simple as 'Wally is trying to form a cult', I think there's Wally the TV character, and Wally the puppet who's gained awareness of the audience and is caught between fiction and reality, a sort of entity trying to reach out to us on the real side. Like it seems he's gained some awareness and sentience uniquely among the cast of Welcome Home, and possibly that's why things were shut down, or at the very least why his attempts at communicating are being edited out by the WHRP: the stuff painted on the submitted artwork looks like it was smeared by the kind of paint and brushes you give to a child - not out of the realm for what Wally, the surrogate for the child audience, might use to paint - and is removed as part of the 'restoration' process. Add that to burying his 'glitched' audio, and a page in the exhibition where Wally looks at the viewer directly when answering labelled 'DO NOT PRINT', speculated to be promotional but possibly ordered not to print to keep him from reaching out there as well. Wally is trying to reach out, but someone or something is trying to stop him
    I think Wally gained this awareness before any other puppet, and someone out there knows this, that he's something else, which is why his audio isn't (supposed to be) on the site. Also, the other residents aren't reacting to a prank call - they're reacting to us calling them, but since they can't hear us like Wally can, they just assume it's a weird call (through the lens of a children's show character, meaning it's a harmless prank, right?) but since Wally's been trying to reach out to us, and since Wally's aware of the audience, he's aware that this is an attempt to contact, and he's acknowledging us there and in his other files.
    But hey, his character role is the audience surrogate, the one who talks to the children watching the show, is it really a surprise that he can cross the divide of the fourth wall? The art sent out are like messages in a bottle, and can we really blame him for trying to reach out to us again, now that he's alone and can hardly see us anymore? Confused to find himself existing while his friends and home are fictional?
    or IDK maybe I'm just a sucker for sympathetic horrors that do their damage unintentionally, or in their own desire for freedom or help hahaha
    Edit: i just noticed something and i'm not normal about it, but I noticed in some audio on the site - like the storybook segment of Eddie lifting everyone - Wally talks slow, but it flows together, it's sleepy but not stilted, but in bits like the mystery audio with Howdy, Barnaby, and Wally, Wally sounds more stilted, like he's saying every word on its own rather than together in a sentence. I'm not sure if that means Wally IS getting possessed by Home or if this means Wally changed after Something happened (gaining awareness? going from being a puppetted, acted character to speaking for himself?) to make him sound disjointed like that...?
    that and thinking about all those skits that end right when they turn to talk to wally, like he's been ripped out of the scene.... what *happened* to Wally?

      It’s times like this I like to remember that Clown really likes The Muppets. Off topic but did you know that Kermit the Frog sort of acted as a representation of Jim Henson himself? Isn’t it weird to think you could create a character, pour your entire being and life into it until the two of you are barely separate beings, then, when you die, Somehow, the creation would keep living on?
      Sorry got off topic there, hey isn’t it weird that the alleged creator of Welcome Home was named Ronald Dorelaine? And Dorelaine kind of sounds like Darling? And Ronald means Ruler and Wally also means Ruler?
      (In all seriousness I am desperate to know why the show disappeared. I am desperate to know what happened to Ronald and subsequently Wally. Did Ronald puppeteer Wally like Jim Henson with Kermit? Did Ronald die, and did that lead to the shift in Wally’s demeanor?? Did the show continue after, and did someone else have to puppet Wally? What About The Other Neighbors What’s The Bigger Picture??????)

    Wally is truly one of the most darkest characters period.

MatPat’s theory about Wally proves to us that he is definitely the definition of puppet master.

    What if Howdy is Frank in disguise? If Frank has access to other puppet parts and is trying to bring it all down he might need an alter ego to throw Wally/House off his tracks, or at least make it harder to figure out that it is him. Howdy is bug themed. If you go back and read Howdy's page you can see that he rarely appears in the show. He has a strange relationiship with Barnaby. They talk in a "strange lingo" that hasn't been figured out yet. Also, Howdy might be able to sneek things from outside of the neighborhood because he is the shop keep. Also, Does anybody know who Eddie is?

    I had a nightmare after watching this, I was in a basement, one I had never seen before, but there were Welcome Home puppets everywhere, and I only assumed it was meant to be the aftermath of Home's plan, because upstairs all I could hear was the horrified and pain filled screams of a man, combined with other grotesque sounds like he was being ripped apart
