The Thing From Episode 3 Is Definitely The Tree Banshee, And It's A Stand In For The Unused Witch Idea

The thing from episode 3 is definitely the tree banshee, and it's a stand in for the unused witch idea he had for UG

Patreon post time:

Okay

SM 7 in October 2025 (probably)

How y'all feeling about that?

I'm personally 100% fine with it, apparently I have unnaturally good patience when it comes to this show so waiting 1.5 years really doesn't seem bad to me, that's almost the time we waited for SM 6 after all

Also with the fact that the people working on it definitely need a while to rest after creating that half-hour beast, and apparently Pelo's wanted to make this really bad since SM3, I'm happy with however long it takes to make the next episode as good as it can possibly be, it'd be horrible for anyone to be overworked

I'll be fine with the current food we've got for that long, I'm like the Beldam from Coraline, I can wait

And who knows, we might get another Spooky Short between now and October 2025!

He indeed is, in fact, in TT, you can see planks of wood leaning by the door of the church, meaning it was likely unfinished at the time

Wait

Did Father Gregor die?

I thought he was just being indoctrinated

We honestly don't know atm, it's pretty heavily implied he was sacrificed? But we don't see him die, and considering the last time we didn't see a character die he turned out to be alive (Streber), there's always a chance.

I hope he's not dead lol

The Tree Banshee theory

This is a theory predicting the role of Spooky Month's most enigmatic monster, one many fans might not even know about yet, so sit back and enjoy!

Watching HS for a second time, Gregor's pose here stuck out to me, so I went back to check my hunch...

Yep, he's in the same pose as the figure on the left wing of the gate. But what about the tree like figure on the right wing?

Well, for that, we turn to the movie theatre, many fans know about the demon priest poster that foreshadowed HS back in TT, well we see a very interesting poster for a second in episode 6

"The Forest Sight", huh?

Now for the clencher, we turn to an image from the arg

The same eye patterns, and a ghoulish being I've come to call the Tree Banshee, you might remember it for it's scream in TT or for an illustration of it in the book from the TT arg.

I believe this entity also somehow benefits from sacrifices made to Eyes and that it will be a/the major monster of a future episode, which lines up well with my idea of Roy's episode being about him chasing Skid and Pump into the woods, where they get lost.

Analyzing the Hollow Sorrows thumbnail for last minute predictions

The first thing I want to say is I didn't look at the cast list, so I don't know if there really is a new demon, but I'm operating under the assumption there is.

The eye in the background is Moloch's, being paralyzed, he's reduced to a watching ghostly presence and a looming threat if New Demon succeeds at freeing him.

The big thing is that Skid is looking at Gregor while Pump is looking at Patty, possessed by New Demon. I think this is symbolic of the role this episode will play in the boys' arcs. Pump is drawn to the more chaotic and unpredictable supernatural events happening in town. Pump is also the one who seems to be more affected by Eyes

On the other hand, Skid is drawn to Gregor, who is heavily implied to be a cultist in this image:

So him manipulating Skid into replacing his father is a distinct possibility. All this supports my idea that the finale episode will see a clash of Skid and the cult against Pump and Eyes.

Also, the fact that Gregor is shadowed in the same way as the villains serves as yet more evidence that his intentions aren't pure.

HOLY CRAP, we better get on the case!

Also, for anyone coming from Cross' account, I hope you enjoy(ed) my Gregor analysis :}

🚨ALLERT SPOOKYMONTH SPOILERS FOR EPISODE 6🚨

ok, so. I was rewatching the episode to find more hidden stuff, then I realize something.

Perhaps I’m wrong but look!

Not only there are some letters, but also the blue box has the KEY with something written underneath “I’m”

Cool, also, can someone translate the whole clip, please?

Hope you don't mind me asking, but where'd you get this name for the tie guy?

Pelo revealed his name in yesterday's stream ^^
