Bon definitely came from Jack’s pure rage/hatred for Felix. The Bon spirit is marked as “Bon”, implying he could be connected to Jack Walten, the only missing person we aren’t aware of where he is. Evidence; Brian states that “he thought I was her”, implying that the “her” in question was Sophie Walten, Jack’s only living daughter. Bon stuffs Rosemary in Sha (the animatronic she designed after herself — sorta like how Ballora may or may not be possessed and/or designed after Clara Afton). Jack could’ve gotten killed during his confrontation with Felix and Felix, panicking, drove to Bon’s Burgers and stuffed Jack in Bon to hide the body.

2:43 Ok, yeah. Indie horror just sometimes doesn’t have a timeline laid out nowadays. Mat is very happy that he doesn’t have to spend hours upon hours figuring out the timeline of events.

10:55 so Linda left him earlier before Jack asks Felix to take his two kids to drive to the event? So thats why Felix is so upset he started drinking in the Children’s School Dance Event Venue?

I think that Felix is probably in Bon. Murdering the loose ends who would be looking for Jack, Edd, and Molly. I think that the spirits of Edd and Molly were around Bon because they were haunting Felix. I think the whole "they are beautiful now" is something a psychopathic Felix would be telling himself to cope/justify the murders. Also, the Billy recording/tape stating the 5 names was probably Felix either recording the names of his victims or keeping track of the loose ends (it was marked discard, which would track with it being incriminating for Felix). Felix being in Bon would also explain his absence because we don't ever get an answer to his fate. This is just my interpretation, and it may already be out there.

I have a small theory, I believe the shadow man was also a part of the cause of Felix’s car crash, and I believe this because in “The showstoppers 2 lost 1983 album” the song “slowly” contains this lyric “ shadow man, watches from the dark, he knows he wrecked the car, but swears he had no part,” it’s just a small theory that just came into my head.

A theory I love is that Sophie lured Rosemary in the backstage since in the second tape, Sha says “Sophie, where am I” when introducing one of the rooms and that the flash of Sophie in the uniform with Bon in the back is what Rosemary saw in the back

The non-canon stories definitely exist for a reason. While the actual events aren't part of the main story, there are probably hints im there. The mysterious house implies that Jack is a lot more sinister than the first 3 episodes implied. I feel like game theory hit the nail on the head with buzu's ghosts

It’s been a while since this video dropped, but the “shadow man feeds me” thing still gets me. SEE NOT FEED.
