New Essay On the Pink Bitch

Those of you unfortunate enough to have seen it may recall I wrote an essay on what I thought Henry Miller was, coming to the conclusion that he was a frog.

Fortunately a couple people corrected me and said he’s actually probably human, and thinking more about it, yeah, he probably is and I was really reaching because I was not only analyzing a character with little information about him for species and going with the first crazy theory, but I never needed to do any of it in the first place because Henry is so obviously human.

Part of me still subscribes to the Frogry theory because it’s weirdly funny to think about and when I make my Henry design I’m actually going to make two, one official Ouija cinematic universe design, and one frog man design for humour and to acknowledge my sins.

This also contains a massive theory about Henry and Fredbear, that is objectively very weird but I think would be cool if it were true but it probably isn’t.

Warning for spoilers somehow.

Ok, so Henry isn’t Frogry. Probably. As I said part of me still watched Amphibia and thought Henry = Sprig because I think it’s so funny and cursed that I have to keep the theory alive because people need to learn from my mistakes as well as see Henry as a frog. (To the person who reblogged my Frogry theory post with a picture of the frog himself, you have my eternal gratitude that made my day.)

Now, to get on to the actual essay, Henry is a human. I wrongfully assumed he wasn’t because of Peter and Jack’s alive sprites and Henry being such a bright pink with the undead eyes.

The main thing that got me confused was Henry’s eyes which we never see on any character who isn’t undead or Dave aside from him. (Personally I’m not sure if Dave’s eyes have to do with his being undead, I actually think they have more to do with whatever he is because they actually look different from Jack’s so they might not be just a zombie thing but it might be just a stylistic choice and they are the same.)

However at what point did Henry die? You’d think he would have mentioned it in his tapes because that would have been what he wanted, right? Henry wanted immortality and if he died and came back immortal he would have talked about it and his success, but since he didn’t he absolutely cannot be dead.

I have a theory about the eyes that changes a lot about their meaning and Henry’s character but it’s kinda weird and out of left field so I’ll save it for after I discuss his skin.

Henry is pink. I was wrong saying he was magenta, his arms and legs are but his face and body are not so it’s probably a different thing. I heard it suggested that Henry just wears pink clothes and I think that makes sense. Dave and Jack have a pretty good reason they could very well have different shades of their respective colours on their bodies, but for Henry, it’s probably just clothes. Why is his skin pink?

A popular theory/joke is that Henry eats a lot of shrimp. This doesn’t make sense because this only works on flamingos. Also I doubt Henry eats brine shrimp. Because it’s not just any shrimp, it’s brine shrimp.

I think it’s more that Henry is a kinda naturally pinkish looking man. It explains literally everything if he is. He isn’t pink, he’s just a little more pink tinted than your average man.

Now, to get to my theory. Keep in mind this is all speculation and I’m not claiming it to be at all correct or really logical. It’s a weird theory but it makes some sense to me and I don’t mind if you disagree, it’s just an interesting theory of mine.

Besides being undead and largely monochromatic, what is one thing Dave and Jack have in common. Soul separation. Jack has Blackjack who is his soul, and Dave has Davetrap who has half of his soul. What if Henry also has a split or missing soul for a different but similar reason.

Perhaps Henry couldn’t deal with the death of his family and it eventually caused his own soul to fracture and create a separate entity which also led to a major increase in his overall cruelty and evil due to the further loss of his already weak morals due to his Machiavellism that he developed at some point during his time in the military.

The fracture was small at first like with Flipside Dave and Davetrap, having “some version” of Flipside Dave always in the Flipside but Flipside Dave becoming more of a prominent and separate entity as Dave became more feral and possessed his own body more, perhaps Henry’s soul split off more and more due to his own growing insanity and obsession which in turn made it get worse and made his soul split more.

Now, you may be thinking I’m crazy, if Henry had another creature repressing half of his soul we would have seen it. What if I tell you we did. In fact what if I told you it was FREDBEAR.

Ok, you surely think this is insane, Fredbear is nothing like Henry, and both Blackjack and Davetrap/Flipside Dave are similar to their counterparts, Flipside Dave and Davetrap so much that I actually can’t tell which of them is more Dave, it feels honestly like they both are.

Well Fredbear isn’t actually the greatest person… errr bear. He just sort of drops Jack in expecting him to solve all of his own problems and if Jack kills people, Fredbear canonically waits until 12 people (11 of them children) are already dead to do anything about his creation killing people. Fredbear could have fixed the problem himself, we know he can kill Dave, he could probably have dealt with Henry himself, so why didn’t he? He’s frequently referred to as a coward specifically for not doing any of the many things to stop the child murder that he clearly could have done.

So Fredbear is definitely self serving, not only that, but he’s a coward, one who waits until the last moment to do anything and sends other people such as Dee (a small child who had just been murdered and presumably works for him) and Jack to deal with a problem he could easily fix far faster. Why, because Fredbear is afraid of death, cripplingly so. And who else is? Henry.

Why Fredbear, doesn’t it make more sense to be Godred? Actually no. Godred is very separate although he has to do with Henry clearly. Godred is an actual animatronic however eldritch as he may be, however Fredbear, although he is an animatronic, never hung around as an animatronic. In fact, we’ve seen his real life counterpart and it doesn’t seem very animate nor does it fully look like him. So Godred is Godred, not Henry.

Why would Henry’s soul take on the form of an animatronic bear. Well, that plays a lot into my theory. I think the split reached its peak around the time of Fredbear’s Family Diner, at which point Henry played the role of Fredbear himself, his own creation. So doesn’t it make sense for his soul, upon gaining its own level of sentience, to take on the beloved form of Fredbear rather than the cursed form of the murderer and mad scientist Henry Miller. Think of Fredbear after splitting off as being like Flipside Dave, witnessing his real life counterpart commit atrocities, not wanting to actually do those atrocities himself but being helpless to stop it.

My theory is that Fredbear, despite being just as Machiavellian and crazy as Henry but less homocidal, wanted to stop Henry’s actions, however he didn’t want to kill him because he worried it would destroy him too and he feared death more than anything. As Henry continued to get worse, Fredbear got stronger as he took on more of Henry’s soul, similar to Blackjack being somewhat powerful and Flipside Dave being able to make portals, but to a much higher degree because the soul he split off of was very much alive, eventually letting him ascend to the point of being the god of childhood, the ethereal real Fredbear.

Perhaps at one point Fredbear lost all memory of ever being Henry but his desire not do no anything too extreme continued, or perhaps he still does remember but has at this point entirely rejected being Henry.

For further proof, Dave claims no one could play Fredbear like Henry could. There’s no Fredbear without him. In the most twisted ways, Henry is both responsible for every problem in the series, and responsible partially for its solution with bringing Jack back to life.

Henry and Fredbear never directly interact, but from dialogue they seem to hate eachother for obvious reasons of being on opposite sides. However if they are the same person it paints this dialogue pretty differently. Rather than them being two separate people on opposite sides working for opposite goals who hate eachother, they are the same man split in half fighting himself forever because neither side is willing to hurt the other in fear of retribution and death.

What does this mean for the good ending? Well I think that seeing Jack accept death after everything was said and done and finally complete what he never could out of fear, Fredbear realized his own fault and that he should have just fixed everything when he had the chance and prevented a lot of heartbreak. Every child who died in Freddy’s, their blood is on his hands. He just let it happen. I think this causes Fredbear to either finally move on from purgatory and rejoin the other half of himself in whatever comes next, Hell, reincarnation, or otherwise. Either that or he can’t move on at this point after all he’s done and what he’s become, he sees what Jack did and knows he himself still has a responsibility to help the stragglers move on and fix all future murders that a part of him caused.

I’m not saying Henry is a good person, nor is Fredbear evil. What I’m saying is a part of Henry split off and became his opposite.

And to conclude this batshit crazy Henry is Fredbear theory, this is why Henry has the same eyes as Jack and Dave, because he too is one half of a whole.

I’d love to hear counterpoints and your thoughts about the matter, and I’m sorry I spent so long on a theory like this. I doubt this is what Doggo intended, but if he did, I think it’d be cool :)

Please do not send hate, this is just a theory not me announcing I sympathize with Henry’s actions or anything of the sort, just me therorizimg about something weird with the main antagonist of Dayshift at Freddy’s that could be really cool if it were true.
