Mortimer Freeze Lore is Dark - Cuphead DLC
Ойындар
The Cuphead DLC has added a ton of fun easter eggs and story bits. And its finally driven me mad. Mortimer Freeze is a cult leader, but what exactly are the plans of the Snow Cult Scuffle? And how does Hilda Berg fit into all of this? What is the ice palace? who is that snow golem? Bepi the Clown?

" Adorn with shackles and topped with a mysterious orange bucket , the booming snow beast holds many secrets to his origin ." - The Cuphead art book wen talking about the untitled snow boss . I believe that the golem is a combination of previous sacrifices due to him wearing the same hat as the others in the background. Its chanded away to make sure the restless spirits dont rebel when Mortimer isnt using them. Just food for thought.

Actually with how classic cartoons used to nearly copy-paste character archetypes, it makes perfect sense to me that Hilda and Mortimer (two individuals involved with witchcraft, astrology and demonic whatnot) would have the classic witchy nose at the height of their power
I'd like to think that in reality there isn't a snow cult- instead Mortimer's just insane yet lonely so to compensate for his crippling loneliness, he MADE every cult member. Considering his second phase, it's not exactly too far off. Not to mention just how in his losing screen of the first phase- "It'll be a warm December before I let you be a member"- it implies that he won't LET people join the cult. Why though? Well because he thinks actual people are probably going to backstab him That's just my theory tho

Here's an alternate take on Mortimer's Tarot card attack that I think makes more sense. Mortimer is telling the cups their fortune. With the sun card, he's telling them how great it is to have Ms. Chalice join them on their adventure. With the moon card, they're unknowingly Chef Saltbaker's minions. Attacking everyone on the island and stealing the ingredients for the Wondertart for him. And finally, the three swords. Which tells them that Chef Saltbaker's playing the cups for saps. Intending to use a living soul as the secret ingredient and try to kill the other two cups! Personally, I think Mortimer Freeze is more benevolent than the theories in this video make him out to be.

If we use the traditional format of one card for the past, one for the present and one for the future, I reckon the moon would be the past (representing the cups’ experiences fighting everyone in isles 1-3 and in hell since you could argue there are themes of deception there, but it’s also possible to be about how you’re deceived when talking to saltbaker for the first time). The sun is the present (things are going well and there’s hope for the future of ms chalice) and the 3 of swords is of the future, where saltbaker betrays them. A fundamentally sorrowful experience could be either describing the past or the future, however, but the moon can’t be the future card because by then there won’t be any deception anymore

Remember that during Mortimer’s third phase, he is simply still just “inside” the snowflake just as he was the snow golem. When he throws the buckets at you, he’s summoning them with his own two arms as he’s piloting essentially this frozen “mech” of sorts. I always thought it was interesting that mortimer never actually has the ability to change form, he just plays dress-up for the whole fight.

Personally I assumed that Mortimer created those snowmen to keep him company or act as his servants but they ended up worshipping him for creating them.
The whale's star pattern are actually a constellation in and off itself, it's the Whale Constellation - he could have used the same magic as Hilda to bring to life a constellation like she does to transform herself.
Honestly the thing is with Hilda is that unlike Mortimer is that she kinda doesn't see it coming when she changes into last stage (Or at least shows major discomfort.) (BIG THEORY HERE) Maybe she was punished for turning into all these real celestial beings and was turned into a mecha moon (It its kinda robot as seen in one of her attacks where she extends her head) and she uses her punishment to attack you and take you down with her.

She does owe her soul to the devil, so that sounds solid. Unlike most other bosses in the main game, Hilda actually seems to actively use powers that seem to be unnatural to her - she's a blimp, but her main ability is for some reason the power over stars. Even the queen bee has a magic wand that visually suits her theme. I'd guess that she's literally using a sort of witchcraft, and that's why her soul contract started acting up in the middle of the fight - because she was directly drawing power from it.

Beppi maybe ties into this as his area could be his own domain. It seems HE is controlling the park to attack you like calling the cart, and even the final phase turning into that carousel thing.

The way I see it, you're one of three thing, Earthbound, Semi-Astral, or an Astral being. Characters like Cuphead and Mugman, are Earthbound, as they're obviously very alive, however like Ms.Chalice, upon death their souls move into the Astral plane. They can "return" and interact with Earthbound beings, but ultimately can't do much besides move physical objects or get parried. Semi-Astral beings are characters like Hilda Berg and Ol' Mortimer here. They draw power from the Astral Plane, giving them abilities that are unlike anything an Earthbound being could hope to achieve. For the most part, they're simply stronger Earthbound beings. Finally, there's Astral Beings, such as the Phantom Express, and The Devil himself. These beings either live withn, or draw extreme power from the Astral Plane. Being an Astral being allows you to return to a physical form, or possibly grant yourself one, however this is only if you're strong enough to draw such power from the Astral Plane. Personally, I see the reason Saltbaker wanting to gain Astral powers, is to become immortal, however the reason he chooses to be immortal, is to maintain his title as Greatest Chef in all the Land, with the Wondertart becoming his sole reason to keep the role, while functioning as his Magnum Opus as well. That's just a theory though...a CUPHEAD theory! Thanks for reading

Hers my try at making a theory about this: I want to remind everyone that the main game bosses made a deal with the devil whilst the DLC bosses didn’t. I think Hilda Burg made a deal to turn her into a sort of demigod, which lets her transform into godly celestial beings including a moon. I think that Mortimer worships Hilda, the god of the celestial beings, and inducts cult members to experiment on them to discover a way for him to become a similar god but not by making a deal with the devil. The reason I think he experiments on the members is because the beast he summons is just a bulkier what I assume a more powerful version of the bucket wearing members in the background. Perhaps he’s a failed experiment that didn’t fully become a god but made him extremely powerful, and the final snowflake is the final experiment, a being that can summon energy shooting enemies and float in mid air, just like Hilda floating in the sky with her energy shooting UFOs. In the end, Cuphead manages to destroy his form and cause to revert back to regular Mortimer.

There’s something I didn’t notice about Mortimers fight up until I saw this video. Before Mortimer swings the whale out of his hat, You could see that there’s a bunch of stars across its back. I’m not sure if this is a constellation or if it’s just randomly placed stars but… I thought it was worth the mention.

I feel like there's a connection between Werner Werman and the Howling Aces. Mostly Because the Bulldog pilot in the first phase uses a cat that looks exactly like Katzenwagen from Werner's Final phase. Perhaps Werner and The Howling aces were at war with each other, then Werner signed his soul away so he could fight the howling aces with the very cats they used again't him. Since Werner and his battle have lots of references to War and also that Werner speaks German, and the Howling Aces look like a military army... (this is a bit of a stretch) but this could have been 'WW1' in the 'CUPHEAD' universe. (or not I'm probably stupid) (Also LOVE YOUR CONTENT! ❤ ❤ ❤

But Hilda seems to lose control of whatever magic she’s using when she becomes the moon. I don’t think Hilda has any major connection to Mortimer. Hilda is thought to be a meteorologist on Inkwell Isle but what if while studying the weather and the stars, she discovered the means to use astral magic(her zodiac forms)?
I'm not sure whether or not this has to do with Mortimer, but his snowflake form kinda looks like Cryogonal from Pokémon, which is pretty much a sentient snowflake with crystal chains coming from its lower half and are used as arms of sorts, just like Mortimer does in this form

That sound coming from the outside could be Mortimer speaking to the cult, along with howling wind. As for the tarot cards, I personally think they're describing the cups journey in this dlc, the sun representing new friends, the moon representing saltbakers hidden agenda, and the 3 of swords representing his betrayal and how chalice can't actually come back permanently.

I think she has some form of cosmic power... Also Hilda's final form definitely has more power, she could easily beat Mortimer's final form in a fight.
So, the moon at 7:51 in Beppi the Clown's stage looks conspicuously like the snowflake mask in the background through most of Mortimer's fight. Maybe he's also using some degree of astral plane trickery in his fight? His final transformation is very dramatically different from his main form, and doesn't really draw upon the balloon motif that he's got going on, kind of like how Hilda Berg doesn't use constellations for her last dramatic transformation.
The buckets kind of feel to me like those plastic ones you'd bring to the beach to build sandcastles. My first idea was that they're a symbol from before the beginning of the cult - when Mortimer decided to build a person out of sand/snow and became inspired to learn ice magic and make it alive. So I guess it sort of symbolizes a vestigial origin of life for the snowmen.
I just thought Mortimer was lonely and built lots of snowmen to join his snow cult
2:16 they might be the cult's sound because many snowmans can be seen in mortimer freeze map
Hilda Berg is totally the most dangerous character in Cuphead, not only is she one of maybe 3? pre-DLC bosses who manipulate the Astral Plane (Djimmi and the Devil) she seems to be more adept than either. I'm wearing this tinfoil hat to my grave.

Could also be one of them cults that produce stuff. With the sugar being what you get from them it might be a special type of sugar made from the Astral plain.
2:14 I think it’s Mortimer shouting to his followers about.. idk cult stuff.
8:28 every random theory ever explained in 10 seconds
I usually just go by the Casino Cups, (fan comic), version of Hilda Bergs story. If you haven’t read that part of the comic, I shall enlighten you. Hilda was a pilot who was paralyzed in a crash and she made a deal with the Devil to and the Devil quotes, “Get her back into the sky no matter what.”, so he got creative and turned her into a mechanical being with the ability to take many forms including a moon.
It a wonder why you didn't said anything about the night time on the battle of Pear Lap. Additionally, In my opinion the decoration in the middle of the arena is definitely Sun. The sound you hear when you go close to the arena is the sound of the cult leader and the members, according to the wiki.
I personally think that the sounds coming from the area on the map is some form of a ritual happening, I think it would make sense considering Mortimer’s stage is a cult like area.
@tonybeattie3980
Жыл бұрын
Was gonna say myself, it sounds like some kind of chant the snowmen in the background are doing for some ritual inside. Who knows, maybe we’re interrupting them mid-ritual? That would be a cool explanation for the fight- at least I think so anyway.
Some good ideas, and I agree - while you may not have landed on it with this theory, there is definitely an overarching "mystery" story that MDHR has crafted that is going on between the bosses, waiting to be uncovered.
I think something to keep in mind is that all the base game bosses had at some point made a deal that caused their soul debt. Admittedly these debts could have been caused by nearly anything, although we have to keep in mind that each debitter managed to escape the devil's initial attempt to claim their soul. Its an interesting little mystery box of potential for them.
The sound outside of the level definitely sounds like chanting of some sort. And the 3 of swords card seems to me like your theory of the snowmen coming together to become the snow golem was true. That card could symbolize that the cult members end up turning themselves into weapons for Mortimer to achieve his ultimate goal of ascension.
Moonshine Mob lore could be interesting, with the implication of prohibition, and how the flies in Clip Joint Calamity resemble the thugs working under the spider.
That sound is probably Mortimer just giving a good ol’ fashioned cult speech.

I'm still wondering on how Ms. Chalice is alive in the post credit scene- Cuphead and Mugman are still there, how's she still there if you still need the Astral cookie to summon her after the end?
I see Chef Saltbaker’s future in the cards! First, all goes well, the quest for the Wondertart, then Chef Saltbaker is not what he seems, and then he loses his bakery, which was sad for him!
The pattern on the whale’s back resembles Cetus, a constellation seen in December and looks like a whale. While this is a cool Easter egg it can also tie into Hilda who also uses constellations.
The noise you hear in the lobby is Mortimer announcing the tournament.
Actually the whale is supposed to be a constellation based on the real life constellation called Cetus, in another part of history it’s just called a sea monster but in English is just a whale.
I got an idea what the sound is! Possibly Mortimer freeze sacrificing one of the members.. that's why there's alot of weird gasps and stuff.. and then that's where that weird laugh comes from.I think this is the devil taking the member or Mortimer freeze. So we know why the devil would laugh. HES F- IN EVIL! But. Mortimer must be a monster.. his true form is that snow flake!He died in it .. came back with the Wondertart that chef saltbaker made possibly then he leaded a cult tricked them into making him into his powerful form again... So he can RULE!!!!

thanks! they are really fun to make :D
During cult indoctrination, they have a step where they show punishment or “withhold the prize” which is what the swords represent. The sun is the prize, the moon is the leader, and the swords are the punishment. This means that if someone goes against the cult, they are given the punishment (here quite literally with three swords), showing how the player is in the wrong (through the cults eyes) because they will never get the prize. I think it’s intentional that the thing they’re being promised, a sun, is what would kill the whole snow cult, due to melting. Maybe this is sort of the same type of thing as the ascension types of cult that causes dozens and sometimes even hundreds of people to die.
During the Mortimer fight, you can hear noises from the cult followers. These are the noises that you can hear when you walk to the boss fight.
I think the things you hear at the egg glue is mortimer freeze Laughing when he hears about 3 cups trying to take his sugar cubes
How did I just realize that Mortimer is one of the first bosses showed before 2022?
2:19 I think its either the crowd of Snow people getting hype for the fight, as the area looks similar to a colosseum, or its some sort of cult séance Something else interesting is how similar Mortimer and Hilda really are Both have long noses, both have a pointy headpiece (Hilda's weather vane, and Mortimer's hat), both are rotund in their first phase (Not counting Hilda's Intro appearance) also this may be a stretch, but Hilda gets yellow eyes like Mortimer when in a constellation phase You should also take into consideration that maybe Mortimer fully made the cult, we see him make ice shards that attack you, and the snow golem appears not to be alive until Mortimer goes inside him He's also fine in the credits after being destroyed Mortimer may be able to make snowpeople, so maybe they aren't exactly being used against their will, and they were purposely made to help him in his cult

Maybe Hilda Berg is ex-member of the cult or she is the sister of Mortimer. And that sounds are sounds of Mortimer betraying the victim or sounds of sacrifice.
With the Snow Cult, I feel like it's not just over-board speculation, but you're missing some obvious details: 1.) The Cult looks less like what we'd now associate with a cult and more like a silly secret society, ala the Royal Order of the Corn. 2.) The theme of the location is The Arctic, the "Land of the Midnight Sun." The whale is connected to the Arctic, PS.
The swords are a reference to Darkstalkers it's one of the characters Hsien-Ko attacks the creators of Cuphead are huge fighting game fans there's tons of references from character designs to boss quotes
Honestly, yeah, I love lore in games, and when games have bits that just feel too connected, I theorize a lot too, so yeah dude, what you’re speaking of is a mood
I think it might be nighttime during Beppi the clown’s battle
As a freemason, a few things stood out to me about this snow cult. 1.) The buckets they are wearing may resemble fezzes that The Shriners wear, which is a subset of freemasons. 2.) The Sun, Moon, and Swords have heavy symbology in Freemasonry. Without having to go deeper by what I mean, I recommend you look more into that. 3.) Probably the weaker of the few, but Mortimer appears to be more of a Grand Master of this cult. It would kinda make sense given that he’s a wizard. Like I said, it’s definitely weaker compared to my two previous observation, but it’s still food for thought.

2 things that I found. First the star pattern on the back of the whale is a constellation that is supposed to be a whale called Cetus which ties back to the Hilda berg theory. And the sound on the main map sounds like a chant in Latin which I roughly translated to “we guard the realm for us to live”. So yeah that’s my theory.
Theory: Hilda is just Mortimer's daughter.
It's also interesting to note that in the 1st phase of the Devil's boss fight where he's sitting in his chair, if you look at the floor where his chair is, there's a sun symbol right there.
One thing I noticed is all the people that Chef asks you to take ingredients from are possibly bad people. A cult, military (war crimes), a wanted bandit, a mafia and then there’s that giant which was a gold mine for greedy elf’s.
What I Thing What The Sound Is, Outside of the His Boss, Cheering, And Someone Talking Over The PA, Maybe To Them It’s Like A Boxing Match?
I'm guessing that Mortimer Freeze's final form is Him fighting alongside the otherworldly being that the cult worships. I personally call this entity the "Cold Sun" because He is the cold yet sunny counterpart to Hilda Berg's moon form. My theory is that the snowman exploding was required to summon the Cold Sun.
Let’s not forget that the buckets that Mortimer casts out at you in the final faze split off into semi crescent moons with a small bump in the middle, likely representing a face or nose
8:01 'whale' is a constellation, and Hilda always shows just one eye because she's turned to the side
I’ve been waiting for this
I'm sure people have said this already, but I have the artbook, so I can confirm that the building we fight Mortimer in is supposed to reference a Roman Coliseum. I think it gives the idea of a cult conditioned to enjoy fights to the death. Things the book also emphasizes is the snow monster's bucket as well as the throne Mortimer starts his fight on. Not sure what it means, but it's clearly important. The monster is in fact a reference to The Snowman (Eshbaugh 1933) and the Jack Frost you mentioned before, among other things.
I think the creepy noise when you get there is Mortimer freeze laughing
missed opportunity to make the title "mortimer freeze lore is cold"

damn actually goes hard
You are so smart and good at explaining
In the bebi fight there is a moon in the background that looks like the frozen over moon in the snow cult scuffle fight. Not sure what that means but just thought I would put it out there
I think the Astral Plane is basically where all the magic of Inkwell Isle comes from, and everyone has some connection to it hence to their abilities. Kinda like The Warp in 40k and Psykers who can tap into it.
7:05 in fact Mortimer becomes a sort of a ghost before the ice-cream attacks, maybe it's just an illusion or something, but who knows...
I know this has pretty Much nothing to do with the video, but thanks for using my screenshot showing that boss is underrated!

I think that sound when you walk up to the ice castle is Mortimer and the other cult members chaining the ice golem to prepare for the ritual
It's always nice to check good theory.
