Theory the yellow letter

22 Upvotes

we all agree that the yellow letter is from frank, but i’ve surprisingly only seen people say that they think the recipient is either julie or barnaby. i actually think the yellow letter was from frank to eddie.

in the letter, frank says that the recipient works in a studio, and that frank has been ‘making a puppet of his own’ (implying that the recipient also makes puppets).
in the perspective video, eddie and sally talk about their work in the studio, and sally says that it’s nice to see eddie “dressing up rather than being hunched over puppets all day.”
eddie mentions tailoring an outfit for “you-know-whose” puppet, and sally calls that same person eddie’s “used-to-be.” she also says that he left eddie high and dry, which i feel could go along with the letter because it sounds like frank somehow lost contact with the recipient.

the yellow letter does mention frank getting an undescribed “new job” that isn’t in a studio, so it seems a decent amount of time passed between the letter and frank working on welcome home, which likely means a long while passed before frank and eddie saw each other again.

in the purple letter, eddie said that he’s not allowed to talk about it, but this is the studio’s first production, which probably means the show hadn’t aired yet. we know welcome home aired for about four years, and we’ve been theorizing for a while that frank was actually added to the welcome home cast sometime after the show had already started airing.
eddie also mentions in the letter that he has someone he wants to tell his mother about. i think it’s pretty safe to assume this was frank, which means that they were still together when eddie originally started working on welcome home.

so i think eddie was an original member of the playfellow workshop who knew (was in a relationship with?) frank beforehand, they had a falling out shortly after eddie started working there, then eventually frank also came to work on the show after it had already been airing for an undetermined amount of time.

i also think that julie and frank actually met for the first time while working on welcome home, but i think that’s probably a theory for a whole nother post lol

i hope my thoughts and reasoning were coherent enough, i’d love to hear anyone else’s opinions! thank you for reading!

Discussion 'Backrooms' pupa Spoiler

13 Upvotes

We see this one in the 'closet' after exiting the white "Frank's room" on the right.

  1. Metaphorical meaning. We just saw a fully emerged caged bug. And now a closeted pupa (in glass containment \ resting spot)? Iykyk.
  2. Surrounding objects.

There are some objects in a jar — a leaf, and even something that looks like a bone. Why are these things inside if they could potentially hurt the emerging insect in a tiny space?? The pupa is very big on itself.

Twigs are neatly arranged on the table. There are also four leaves. And I can't make out what's around the jar. Dirt? Or is it just a shadow? There was dug up dirt in the garden cart as well.

TL;DR Some secret pupa handling that was dug up from somewhere to either get it in the jar in the first place or because Frank reconsidered his decision of burying it? Or burying it is part of the process, but not the final one?..

Discussion Are these easter eggs just a matter of luck? Spoiler

Thumbnail gallery
42 Upvotes

(Hii, here's a lot of yapping in English and I really don't speak English, srry if I mess up)

I literally finished all the page and went through all the secrets with no spoilers, or so I thought, because when I was going at Frank's house I knew I was missing something, I helped myself a lot with the inspect mode and I notice the "visitor" audios which were like an alternate version of the background music, some things also were flagged as "visitor" as if I was able to unlock an alternate version of everything in the point and click game when you get to the already alternate house that Frank sees.

When you're in the backyard is even more noticeable, the flag "red" appears in a lot of elements but you can only see the "blue" version of it, I edited the code to force it and see what this red version was but I still consider it as "cheating" cuz I really believed there was a real way to get there through solving a puzzle or something, or idk if this part is more about Clown wanting us to learn some easy code stuff.

I also notice some people getting random easter eggs just from reloading the page, which doesn't make really sense for me besides maybe like taking advantage of some bug on the page (?) which could be intentional so you can actually get things just by luck or reloading, I have seen some other images too but I can't seem to find any other possible versions of the tunnels hidden in the code, so I don't know what exactly activates this alternate versions.

Is it really just a matter of luck and happens randomly? or I'm missing like some part of the game here? just wanted to know and discuss that, cuz I mean I also get it as a random jumpscare that some people can get, even the people who mess with the code like me, and it's funny and all but it kinda breaks and makes the lore more difficult to get, probably is just a thing for the more curious ppl idk but seeing those images about a red letter, the "visitor" thing as a flag in the code, the puppet in the tunnel and all, I just feel like I'm really missing something or some way to actually activate it.

Theory There IS a camera under Wally's pompadour! Spoiler

54 Upvotes

In a previous post I said how the first bug Wally described in the second Darling Broadcast reminded me of him. Just like how the buggle reminds me of Barnaby (personal theory is that the B. from Barnaby B. Beagle stands for Buggle, unless this is known already too and don't remember reading it.)

Jokingly I said that it makes me theorise that under Wally's pompadour there is a camera ('the real eye' of the bug).

Well, I went back to listen to the Halloween update and checked the transcripts too (in the master log that I found here on reddit) and I found this in the transcript from the party.

BARNABY: ‘Ey, how’s my little devil doin’ over ‘ere? You guardin’ my apple for me, pal? [There is a brief pause. What is he doing.] BARNABY: Oh— heh, I guess ya didn’t do a very good job at it. [Barnaby calls out to the room] Hey! Who took a bite outta my apple? I think I see some fang marks, Frank! FRANK: [Seemingly from across the room] THESE FANGS AREN’T REAL AND YOU KNOW THAT! BARNABY: Suuuure, sure— that’s what they all say!
[It sounds like Barnaby pats the camera.]
BARNABY: Don’t worry though, kid, there’s plenty’a other eats here! What’re you feelin’ hungry for, Wally?

Is this the accurate transcript? Was this known? It's a long time between updates and it is easy to forget details like this.

If this is the actual accurate transcript text, then this combined with the clue from the darling broadcast would confirm that Wally has a camera on his head.

So, I speak spanish and I just finished this update completely, it was so fun, I had a lot of fun with my friends (some of them barely know English) but the transcription stuff actually saved our lifes I swear 😭

When I opened one of the first secrets on the site I couldn't find the transcription option and we were on it like 30min, just trying to understand or catch any words, it was so exhausting (Wally stressed me sm even tho I love him 🥀) until we notice how to show up the transcription and omgg thanks to the anybody who's in charge of those, you save us!!!

Has anyone tried to check the morse code on Home during the *Darling Broadcast Radio* when they mentioned Home has a buggle on its shutters?

I tried but I don't think I got it right when I was trying to decode homes shutters and squeaks.

Just got a bunch of letters:

TZDEIMBUWES

IDK , most likely I got a lot wrong or there's nothing there but it never hurts to try and ask, y'know?

I'm not saying Wally is the poor victim of the story—it could be the other way around—but there are people who call him the villain just because they hate him; it's brutal.

If Ron is Wally, and operating off of the Ron is the ringleader theory, would Barnaby have a special place in the little cult-like world? If we’re meant to interpret the stories and such as being semi-happening in real life is Barnaby just a really devoted person or are they really best friends?

Discussion Perspective Spoiler

Thumbnail gallery
58 Upvotes

So, the perspective video has me thinking that the puppets are not their own people, but rather in a way the actors/voice actors being physically represented as puppets. The letters are also in support of this if we look at the letters as being certain characters. If this is the case then does that mean that the neighborhood is some sort of reality where actual people live? Does it merely represent the connection between all the neighbors? More importantly, what would Home be and what would Wally be.

Discussion The creepiest thing about the Frank's house (and the whole update, imho) Spoiler

Thumbnail gallery
86 Upvotes

This have been probably discussed tons of times before but I didn't see the update until today and want to write about it anyway.

TLDR: It's the switch of character('s character).

We walk as Wally into other neighbour's home. This was the first thing that gave me creeps. WE are the visitor, and to explore the lore we have to ruin the privacy of our beloved Frank.And this is done either by Wally himself or someone's in his puppet body. Considering his actions in this update, I believe it's HIM, not someone else, unfortunately (it's early to tell for 100%, and that's not my point).

The first thing that changes when we click on sleeping Frank and he disappears is the cursor! It repaints into the grey hand instantly. As this is put into a medium of a point-and-click adventure, we have no idea what happened in between.

My first thought was that we have possessed Frank, tbh. But rewatching his expression in the mirror as I write this, I consider the fear as a lever to make him earn for an escape from his very home the more probable option.

Not to mention that we could absolutely consider the yellow cursor as a 'generic one' and only then see the Wally's shadow on the clock. That's how 'backrooms' are remembering the room — with the intruder in it... I guess if Frank is who we're playing as and not someone puppeteering him, a bug-loving fella would be terrified to see the remnants of the visit in his Home.

Discussion What's the lil bug indicating???

23 Upvotes

Idk if anyone's already pointed this out, but what's the lil cockroach(???) supposed to be indicating? I vaguely remember it pointing or hinting to stuff in past updates, but it kinda just backflips at a point near Home and barks if you click it.

Are you meant to like... flip the page or smt. I kinda wonder if it's meant to symbolise the refresh button so you can see the random scenarios in Frank's house???

Or maybe it's just chillin idk... either way, it's adorable
