My theory is that the woman likes to gaze upon the obese populace at their ugliest moments, perhaps to make herself feel slightly prettier.

I agree with this theory except for the lady fattening up the guests to steal their lightforce - I think she fattens them up to make them ugly, so she looks the most beautiful among the pigs.

Maybe it was a janitor who realized the vileness of his actions, and so sought a way out of his own...Little Nightmare. Also, another idea I have about Six. You know how the game is called Little Nightmares? Well...what if SHE is the Nightmare that these monsters fear? What if that was the reason she was cast down into the bowels of the ship? To be turned into food and fed to ravenous gluttons before she could do anything to stop the workings of the Maw?

So true, I can see a reason they would as their job is to raise children then package them for consumption. Little known fact, there's a video that shows a darker image of Six who appears whenever she eats. I'd search for the video to help develop theory. Come to think of it, if there's a darker Six, the "mother" has supernatural power, and the dolls release darkness... I'd assume breaking the dolls foreshadows the mother's fate. Or maybe it infects Six which is the cause of her change in appetite. Genetics or unrelated power?

Well that's when you could bring up the vanity thing. She's so vain that even though she should break all the mirrors, the thought of never being able to look at her own beauty makes her keep one mirror intact, and lock it away. So in a way, her own vanity becomes her downfall. I think it still makes more sense than feeling like she's the most beautiful thing but also hating to look at herself.

I think you missed the points in this video, but the point is is that she isn't the most beautiful thing and she knows it. She keeps the mirror in hopes one day she does look beautiful because everyone around her is ugly and obese. Looking into the mirror reminds her of who she actually is and how ugly she still is. And that her daughter is more beautiful than she is. No, she doesn't feel like she's the most beautiful thing, that's why she wants to make everyone else ugly so she can be. The supernatural powers I don't think fit in this story at all and I have no idea why they were added, but hopefully, it's all explained in the comic.

Sure she doesn't want to see herself but mirrors don't kill your little sharp teeth and soul sucking power does.

I believe this game is an allegory of society's obsession with excess and how greed leads to succumb one's self towards perdition. The starvation represents the desperate need to constantly attain things. When Six ends up eating the gnome, it shows how one tends to lose sight to our surroundings and act on our own selfishness to feel "satisfied".

The Maw is very reminiscent of Miasaki's Spirited Away, and Little Nightmares does something with the ending sequence I wish more games did. The kind of power you wield is devastating and terrifying, and you can FEEL it when you play. Its tunnled progression of the slow walk through the dining hall as you kill everyone around you fills me with awe and dread, emboldened by the ominous music, and the spreading darkness as I pass. Never before have I felt so overpowering... yet at the same time, so evil, in a haunting way; mostly because you are assumed to be the victim until now.

ok, i have another theory What if six is the lady herself? I mean, after LNM2, she was teleported back by a transmission, but it can be any timeline right? (As we know,mono transmitted to future to unlock the door for thin mono & thin mono travelled back in time to stop mono by transmission) That's why she had nightmare of her evil future self after what she had done to mono, and to satisfy her new hunger, she had to kill & eat childens or even the guests who she invited, so she started this prison-motel. & the reason she wears a mask, bcz if she looks at herself at the mirror, it reminds her of her pastself, what horrible things she has done at the past, It could be another time loop paradox Just a theory

Winters Strom When extremely young children are starved a lot, they become malnourished. Their minds and brains expand but their bodies hardly grow. I might be wrong but that's why I think Six is so small. She is always straving. She even eats a Keemstar!

Mirrors are not just about reflection or obsession with personal beauty...they are considered windows into the spirit world. It could be the mirrors are also important to the Lady's survival in some way, like perhaps a Horcrux.

I loved the game and the atmosphere of this game and the theories of the story only make it even better! My own interpretation after having heard several theories, I have drawn as a conclusion the "moral of the story" or "the critic about reality" that the history of the game passes according to the possibly true theories. That the game shows how much children can be consumed by adults. Both in beauty (the lady does not want to see anyone be more beautiful than her and tries to destroy it and "feed" to herself seeing obese guests destroying their bodies feeding themselves with any kind of food). What about the insatiable greed for food (that it would be a reflection of how you can lose control with food and do not feel pretty and that hits your physical health that made you insecure and destroy the health of your body in food, or, as the lady (possible mother of six) got lost with the inflated ego in beauty. so I interpreted as if these issues of beauty and obesity, gluttony for power, end up being something that can CONSUMING KIDS (Eat children, Devour children, understood the reference? Haha!) and then the adults end up making children grow up with this issues and consume it too, ending up becoming something bad (equal to six became the final). And about the little gnomes would be something like a materialization of what is left of these children who are in the Maw. This would be the representation of innocence and fear of any child (because the gnomes are harmless and fearful right? And as soon as they get some act of affection (the fact of six hug them) they decide to follow you like any scared child would!) And that's all folks! This is my own conclusion leading with reality about this awesome game. If you've read this far, please let me know and tell me what you think about it or just to say about the fact that I'm crazy for seeing this things in the game! Thanks! And sorry for my inglesh.

I love this story. Yet I just found out about this gammeee

this game was actually such an amazing game. I just finally got Outlast trilogy not too long ago and have started playing horror games and this game beats Resident Evil 7 and Outlast, all of them. and for the price of $20 so worth it. definitely gonna play through it again this coming weekend. This game had me hooked. and reminds me SO much of the movie spirited away, and the music was fantastic. Might have to download the Album. The ending was SICK too. Just wish I knew you could hug the gnomes when you saw them. I didn't know that til the second to last one. next playthrough I'm definitely gonna look for all of the collectibles as well. Favorite part was definitely the kitchen. The twins kill me, haha. Can't wait for a part 2 or DLC.

I finally understand now! Thank you!

This is the first actual explanation I got! Thanks

Six is the lady

You can see an evil ghostly six watch you each time you eat!

Thanks for the explaination

Thanks for explaining

I think we are all looking into this very incorrectly. I feel it has to do with the seven deadly sins. The Geisha women is Envy because she discards six since six is beautiful and despises anyone else who is more beautiful than her. The guests are gluttony who over indulge on the fine life on this ship. one brother is sloth (the one that was sleeping) the other brother may be pride since he is diligently focused on his cooking which allows you to slip away. Six herself is wrath, the shadow six is lust since they constantly watch six. And the only thing that leaves left is the janitor which is most likely greed since he tries so hard to get you in the end and ends up losing his arms(not to mention the comic says he collects things)

Here's the theory from IndieObscura: *Because of the experience Six has suffered through aboard The Maw, her resulting violence and insatiable hunger transforms her into (as the game’s title states) a “Little Nightmare.”*

Interestingly enough, there's some apparent foreshadowing early on in the game where you encounter the very first statue (voodoo doll?) of The Lady. Right opposite the statue there's a beam of light shining down in the centre of the room; at the end of the game The Lady's ultimate demise is LIGHT. I wonder if anything happens if you place/throw the statue at the beginning into the beam of light.

The ending is really inspirational because Six had to go through all those monsters, hardships and obstacles to finally become powerful and invincible.

Hope I wasn't the only one to jump in my chair when that spooky lady's face suddenly appeared to chase you in the dark room.

Pepe Walnuts In the comic book photos that were released, it shows 5 other girls who look just like 6, so that might explain that. curiouser and curiouser as Alice might say - i bloody love this game and the way it's showing us how everyone's minds work

Me knowing about the hideaway dlc: hehehe. You fool. The gnomes are children cursed by the lady

I think the reason why the mirrors are actually broken is because (if Six is the Lady's daughter) is so Six doesn't find out that she's prettier than her mom. I mean, look, when you're in the Lady's room, every mirror is broken except the one she's looking at. Another 2 reasons to back this up is that we don't know how long she's been in the suitcase bed and there's no mirrors there too. Just a thought

i love the fact that a lot of explanation vids of this game use Markipliers gameplay

I know that no one will probably read this but here is my take away from all the story; you need to clearly apply Japanese fables to it. I do not think it is the allegory to something, it is simply story based on Japan culture. The lady is clearly obsessed with a look and either try to make everyone fat and ugly so she would be pretty or she wants them all to die so she could feed on their life force to be more pretty. Guests themselves might be sinful of sloth and gluttony as a place could be some sort of "hell realm" for ones who are wrong of gluttony and sloth. That is very simple. Now, onto the main character (I believe that it is the girl so I will refer to her as she) and who she might be. First of all, I do not think she is evil; she might be Soul Eater or something along those lines. First of all, it ties in; Banshee and related life sucking create in Japanese culture are mostly females. It would also make sense with how she 'eats'; she never devours that rat, gnome or either the lady. Instead, she sucks their blood/life force. Sure, I still can't explain potato/bread at beginning, but I still have 3 occasions out of 4 to support me. Short story long, our character is equivalent of death spirit. It could be that lady was never her mother, but instead caught her and locked her to use her powers to then suck life energy and always be young. And you try to get to her to kill her and get your own powers back. This is all rather unstable and I still have no idea about who gnomes are (they could be children but why would they be there?) so feel free to comment if you even will see this comment. Ye. ヽ(　･∀･)ﾉ

Ram Kitten I'm not saying your wrong to draw that conclusion (I actually like that connection). But, the story can stand fine on its own for people who don't want to look into japanese mythology. When it comes to writing, the audience should be able to draw their own connections and conclusions when it comes to meanings.

I know this might be too late, but please split the texts, I know it would be exactly the same content, but right now it might be somewhat hard to digest when you are trying to read as many theories as you can :P

What I am still wondering is why do the chef's wear masks? When they are searching for you, you can see under their masks a bit.

@ahmedalmahdi9254

I think the game is based heavily on Japanese culture, perhaps the beings who sport masks are a representation of the Yokai, not to mention The Lady is reminiscent of a Geisha, oh, and the whole guest area resembles a Japanese style hotel or a bath house.

This is so nice

Anyone else notice when you walk down the hallway, you not only hum the same tune your mother did, but the tune is sped up. if you were to slow down the humming in the hallway to the same speed as the humming your mother did, its the same three notes being put down. Its because Six is younger, i believe, that her tune is able to change so easily.

hopefully this really is what happen

what if the she isn't upset about beauty its just she is sensitive to light when it is reflected by a mirror by breaking the mirror she can stop the light reflecting from it but still see fragments of her own refection

Ed Rix its not really that easy, through the last battle you hear her getting hurt so the mirrors do effect her and if she didn't like how she looks why keep mirrors in the first place, why hasn't she removed them, if she can't bare how ugly she looks why keep a reminder plus she has a photo of herself, if I don't like how I look I wouldn't want a photo to remind me unless she Isnt not ugly

Justin Field just say I'm right about the mirror thing I think people could figure out a more interesting theory, like six ran away because she discovered what is really going to happen to her and has been planing an escape for a while but if you want another snow white copycat then it's okay

thx I need an explain you guys are great I need to know all that information

This is just a theory but the beginning cutscene might be the lady gaining her powers, since it's incredibly similar to when Six gains them from her, and Six was having a nightmare about it.

Who was that hanged man at the beginning?

Just a theory, it might not be true.

This actually makes a lot of sense! Definately a surprising and interesting ending to this game, and I kinda like how Six became sort of an antihero, taking revenge on everyone!

In the music at the end you can hear a faint humming which i think sounds like the lady when she hums but I have no idea if it means anything.

I feel like this would make a great movie

I won't like this comment just so it can say 6 forever.

6 seems to be humming the same song as the Gashie (no idea how to spell it) lady at the end when she took her powers, I wonder if the song has anything to do with her power?

This was a pretty good game. Should be a part two

I went with a more realistic approach and there isint actually a ship in this Theory because it's a figment of imagination but here it is My take on this is your a child who instead of this demonic place that you see is actually in the real world and what you see and what happens is the child's over exaggeration of all the messed up things that's happening in the beginning the setting is the street you see the child wander around and the child gets hungry and you see a man throw a piece of bread and not help in any other way then you get hungry agin and you are captured by the child predator(monster with long arms) but you escape throughout all this you have a friend who helps you along the way (the small creature) then you go into the kitchen this is where it gets harder to understand but my best guess is you are trying to steal food from a restaurant and attacked when you try to do so then you see your friend who is just trying to help you but you turn on it and hurt it this can be related to real life because often with orphans or the abused they develop mental disorders and end up physically hurting the ones they care for. Then you go to where i assume home is and that monster that everyone call the mother is probably either the child's real mom or foster mom either way it is a abusive mom and you definitely get that kind of feel with the mom being happy when your unnoticed but when recognized you are attacked if you look around you see broken mirrors probably because the mom has mental disorders of its own and it doesn't like to look at itself maybe dealing with self esteem I also feel that the mom wasn't always bad but something happened with the father dying of divorcing her causing her to lose confidence and turn her evil then you shine the mirror at the mom exposing to her what she really is and defeats her when you see the child eat the mom and gain its powers it shows the child becoming more hateful and messed up when the child walks through and kills all the monsters it means the child has become stronger from all of the life lessons and experiences but in the process of gaining power it became a monster worse than all of its villains combined

What a vain mother! Why would she want to imprison her daughter coz she's prettier than her? I thought she would be happy to spread a beautiful genes to her daughter, her own flesh and blood who will carry her family name! Maybe even grant her her own powers! Weird woman!

still a weird theory though...

What is that instrument called that is playing when sasha was walking past the guests? It starts at 3:17 and it gets louder and it stops at 3:42. SOMEONE please tell me what that it i really wanna know

didn't know til now that there was a prequel comic book comin out. thats pretty cool!!

Haven't played this game, but the maw looks eerily similar to rapture when above sea level

Little Nightmares II , the game that we need the most

Interesting I'm subed.

this was helpful to know this ending being explained because when I saw the ending myself the first time it made no sense to me

Interesting can’t wait to play part 2

I love the way little 6 laid waste to everyone in her path on her way up the stairs to fulfill her destiny...being the controller of another vessel perhaps?

Can't wait for Mat to do a Game Theory about Little Nightmares.

I had a weird ending where all those guys you save follow you outside and I don't know what the hell the dolls do.

Reminds me of the song that plays on the easter egg ending of silent hill downpour, Here be monsters

the ending is bad ass and the song fits the mood just right

Got it on sale on switch recently for $10! What a game What a game..... 👊🏼✔️

best explanation so far yoou forgot to mention the hanging body from one room i think that couldve been the ladys husband who killed himself maybbe not sure

I just noticed that when six is stealing the life force of the other passengers she is humming. Like the lady does. The same melody but in a different pitch and tempo. If you think about it it's kinda creepy. You know with the rumor going around saying that the lady is six's mother.

This is one of favorite games of all time and I cant explain it though I know I like it for some of the reasons I like games like sally face

Wow this whole The Lady and Six being her daughter thing was a theory out of nowhere, but I really like it. Not sure about the daughter part because I think the gnomes are not people, but still awesome theory, and what is this about a comic?

I don't know if this is an oversight by the developer but when the janitor's arms are cut off, you can see that the arms actually hollow maybe that means something?

My theory now after Little Nightmares 2 is that six was captured by the hunter in the forest, Mono saw it and came to rescue her. And so the story plays on and in the end, Six leaves Mono for dead because she feared him, and when she returns her soul belongs to the radio tower, and her hunger in the first game represents it, so the reason why she ate the lady and the gnome was because she needed life force and a '' soul ''.

also every time six eats for example the first time, on the top right on the object you see a evil dark version of her and this happens every time just keep a look out next time you see or play the game!!

A very interesting theory! I like it.

Have you just noticed that in every starving sequence (maybe except the first one, but I'm not sure about that) it can be heard the Lady's song!? And sequence after sequence it seems that it's volume increases! May it mean something important, like that Six is slowly becoming like her mother the more she keeps herself inside the ship? That could explain pretty much things, like her thirst of blood increasing each time she eats, and... well, she just ate her mother so I guess they're almost the same, right?

no one notices the shadow sixes. you can see a shadow six everytime you eat. it's specially apparent when you eat the nome as the camera even zooms out a bit to make sure you catch one glimpse of it

"The lady" reminds me of the homunculus woman from "haunting grounds" She envies the main character and chases you around and if she walks past a mirror she screams haha

ohhhhhh now i get it moreeeeeeeeeeee first i thought that this child was the nightmare itself..... well dunno but this really helped me to orginise my mind(?)

The future six aka evil six, sings three times when you are eating meat, and appears 3 times, one when you eat the rat, once when you eat the gnome and finally after waiting so long, she combines with you after you eat the lady, and sings along while both of them escape the ship. Maybe she gets more powerful every time you break a vase?
