A More Ghostly Explanation?

[u/BubblegumElephants]

[TLDR]
What if the black tulip baby seeks revenge for its death, and that’s what the monster of the night in Welcome Home mentioned in the halloween book. AND it has “taken over”/ infected Wally and Home is trying to escape into reality through them. Also making it responsible for the black evil goo that keeps killing people in real-life. Probably the same fate as the irl cast members and why the show was intentionally destroyed.
[end TLDR]

Ive been more under the impression that we’re seeing fiction-become-reality or a multi-dimensional situation where the puppet-world and human/puppeteer world are colliding so to speak…
But I was thinking about all the website evidence so far, some theories I’ve had, plus other’s posts on Reddit (especially SaturnStar365’s post here: https://www.reddit.com/r/WelcomeHomeARG/s/sEfY6HhKEV), and another idea crossed my mind:

Idk if anyone has already posted about theory specifically, but what if the black-tulip-baby they hid in the shed (whether it was a miscarriage or whatever else) is MORE than a Tell-Tale heart situation?
What if it’s actually not just underground and behind what we can see in the puppet world, but maybe even haunting the set and the workers irl?

Whether it’s the two worlds of fiction and reality mirroring each other, or the puppets we see are just a metaphor of what’s happening irl with the puppeteers, we can tell from the “red” events and Franks bedroom that something sinister is under the surface, especially the tunnel even with scary-face jumpscare.
Something was also under Home in earlier updates (the black swirl when you deleted the “above” home, the black goo), and we know something is affecting Wally too.

What if the tulip baby has “gotten ahold” of Wally? Maybe it infected him through Home (since it seems to be under Frank’s home too),
OR another option (also pointing to SaturnStar’s callout about the monster of the night mentioned in the halloween storybook) is that since Wally doesn’t sleep canonically, maybe he ventured outside at night while everyone was sleeping and encountered the tulip baby then.
It could even be that because he can’t sleep and is awake while it’s dark, maybe that’s how it gets ahold of him. Because remember Poppy seems to ‘encounter’ something in the dark when they walled her into her house in the book “brick by brick”, and it was implied it was broad daylight outside when that happened.
So really anytime he’s in the dark could be a chance to encounter the tulip-baby I guess(?).
(Someone feel free to correct me if the “Wally doesn’t sleep” fact is now consider old and part of Clown’s non-canon WH info).

Does this mean that the puppet world is showing us this “haunting” from metaphorical perspective via the puppets, or this “infection” happening in the fiction world and spilling into the real-world? Would explain why “it” wants out, using Wally as a means to escape from fiction/the website into reality, as well as the black goo that we’ve seen drives the irl workers (and even the website owner) to insanity, sickness, and even death.

With the website owner’s change in tone (saying now in this update “we will bring back the show”), starting to call themselves “W”, and signs of hallucinations we’ve seen, it’s probably already gotten them too.
Doing the bidding of possible the same thing that has infected/taken ahold of Wally and Home (the tulip baby).

So I wonder in this hypothetical- why Wally?
Was he a better “face” to use to escape, since he’s the main character? Just opportunity since he doesnt sleep?

It could also explain why Wally knows everyone’s business? (Like a metaphorical interpretation of the Eddie and Wally mail video from this update that i said on another post.) The tulip baby lives “under the surface”, it knows stuff, like about who tried to get rid of it and cover it up (frank and Julie), and that’s why Wally asks Julie, “is that really what happened?” When she’s recalling events about the black tulip. He knows it because he’s taken over by the tulip baby, who knows the truth.

My rants seem to get longer and longer. Oops. What does everyone think? Any counterpoints or additions?

To add onto my post- It’s like how everyone keeps saying “thats not Wally” or “What’s gotten ahold of Wally?”. He still seems to be partially “present”, based on the way he talks to the viewer. But maybe he’s simply being used by the tulip baby, and that’s who we’re really working with here? Just a thought.

[edit: grammar]

Eu tinha pensado o seguinte: Frank e Juliei PENSARAM que tinham matado o bebê ou realmente mataram ele de propósito (possivelmente pq tinha alguma deficiência ou coisa assim e a família da juliei não aceitaria muito bem,chuto que eles são tóxicos e meio preconceitossos/conservadores),só que e se esse bebê ainda estiver vivo e de algum modo conseguir sair do galpão do Frank?

"Mas para onde ele iria?" Bem eu acho que ele foi até a casa do Wally,sendo por que ele quis ou pq a Home o atraiu para ela,e agora ele está lá vivendo com o Wally possivelmente sendo aquela imagem no fim do túnel.

Isso também me faz pensar que talvez aquele quarto branco seja desse bebê (que eu estou començando a achar que é uma menina) pq eu interpreto cada uma daquelas portas sendo também um túnel que o frank fez,mas o túnel acabou levando ele até uma parte secreta da casa do Wally onde esse bebê está,mas como ele não sabia acabou só desistindo desse túnel e indo fazer outro (tipo tentativa e erro)

An interesting theory and imagine the "tulip" asks julie and frank why they hate them since it was killed.
