 Welcome to Church of the Chair, where sometimes, debt is better. I'm your host E, and today, we're burying our own. If you're new around here, I need to give you a word of warning. I will be talking about spoilers for all of Stephen King's books. So if you haven't read his entire catalog, I suggest you click away now, you've been warned. Today, we're doing a theorist video on Pet Cemetery, one of my favorite Stephen King books. Now, let's jump into my theory. The thing that Louis Creed comes across in the woods, Louis thinks of as a Wendigo, but I don't think that's the case at all. What I think the Wendigo really is, is a demon from the Prim. Just like Pennywise, just like the cars I talked about in Christine, My Lady One from Obuacate. All that stuff, I believe they are monsters, demons, creatures, whatever you wanna call them, from the Prim. And I think the Pet Cemetery, the one that brings things back from the dead, is a thinny, and that's how the demon ended up in that area of Maine. Another theory of mine is that, oh, it's a lot of people's theories, is that Ellie actually has the Shine, which would, again, tie that back to the Tommyknockers. For more on that theory, go watch the first episode, the Carrie Redux video. To tie Pet Cemetery into the rest of Stephen King's universe, we have to mention all the towns that are mentioned in this book. You have Haven from Tommyknockers. You have Jerusalem's Lot, and since Jerusalem's Lot is mentioned, Salem's Lot ties directly back in to the Dark Tower series, so for me, that's a hard connect. And then we have a mention of Derry, where Pennywise lives. But I do have something that I failed to mention in my original video, and that is the fact that Gage's shoe is found in the layer of the bald doctors in insomnia. Many of you pointed this out. You can pause to read all these wonderful comments if you'd like. And we also have a tie-in to Kujo, which strengthens the bond that Kujo ties in to the Dark Tower series. This comment right here points out something I missed in the original video. And we also have the fact that there are strange lights that are mentioned out in the woods. Judd calls it St. Elmo's Fire. Strange lights, dead lights, Pennywise. You see where I'm going with that one. And thank you so much to user Alina Anna. I hope I'm saying your name right for this comment that pointed that out. And the final thing, I don't know that I missed this, but this is a really, really good theory, and I wanted to read it to you word for word. User Shannon Reynolds had this to say. Other than Ellie probably having the shining, I thought of something else, especially after Dr. Sleep. If it doesn't make sense, I'll understand. The true knot group in Dr. Sleep had to feed every so often to maintain themselves. And I thought that it's been years that Judd had told Lewis how many times it was almost to the day when Judd buried his dog when it got hit by the car. Then I thought of the vampires in Salem's Lot and how they had to feed as well on a more regular basis than other stories. Also, Pennywise would come up every 27 years to feed before it hibernated, and the idea of consuming is in some of his short stories. The idea of this place having to consume something every so many years, the way Pennywise does, the way the vampires do, and in a way that the story thinner, given how the central man consumed too much and when the curse was placed on him, he lost weight, but would consume even more. It's been a while, so my king lord may be wrong. So is that a possible link, though a very subtle one? I absolutely love this theory. The idea, the theme of consumption throughout the king verse is something that I definitely wanna dive into more in a different video. But that's all the time I have for you today. Thank you so much to all the wonderful comments I got on the original video. You guys are amazing and I appreciate you so much. Finally, if I missed anything else, if I got something wrong and you'd like to correct me, or if you have your own theories, please leave them down there in the comment section. But until next time. I don't semi-tip.
