Paranorman Theory: The Agatha’s Curse Timeline Explained! 

I think that the 7 judges died shortly after Agatha did. Because if they would have died later, then they would look a lot older than they do. In fact they look the same as when they were alive.

The thing that struck a cord with me in this film was the capitalisation,which is still very true in our society. Around where I live,there were a group of witches who got executed,and now there's a Halloween walk based around them where kids dress up to go and have a laugh. It's like after all those generations we forgot that these were real people with real lives,who actually got killed. This film is about a little girls death,and how the town seemed to forget that's all she was,a little girl,not a tourist attraction. We take people's deaths and make costumes and plays,and pretend like all of the fear never happened,we wash away their story's truth,and leave a hollow pretend idea. We act like those people never died,and it scares me...

All the Norman and Agatha shippers need to watch this

I think she didn't develope her powers but she got angrier and angrier the longer time went on

Norman had to stop the curse for good since he botched his job as curse holder and the judges came back from the dead for the first time in 300 years. Also couldn't we theorize Agatha had an older family member with the gift and that person kept the curse at bay and they managed to live long enough, nearly 100 years, until the ability could be passed down once again?

Honestly Paranorman is my favorite out of the Laika movies

theory : agatha is an obsucuros (its a fantastic beasts thing)

It's been a while since I saw the whole movie. But, in the final confrontation between Norman and Agatha, he points out that she has lost her humanity, i.e. that hate has turned her into something else. It's wrong to suggest that these are "magic powers" that she has acquired. Or, at least, that is a very different interpretation than what was given in the movie itself. She's angry about having been punished unjustly. She's right to be angry, but she's wrong to seek revenge. Her hatred turns her into a monster that terrorizes the whole town. It's not like a superpower that she can use for good. She becomes evil by seeking revenge.

Some many people ship norman with his multiple greats great aunt

I wonder how Agatha had died and I thought she didn't die by execution, she died after cursing the seven judges because her powers were untapped.

Man your really missing out with the boxtrolls, its definitly got that laika charm (maybe even more than kubo)

theoretical thinking i think Norman is a reincarnatoin of Agatha

Lol it was common sense for me at the end of the movie lol what did the witch's curse had anything tondonwith the spirit ofbthe dead? He was supposed tonstop the dead from rising not get rid if the spirits of the dead lol it made perfect sense that he would see his grandmother in the end what i wanted to know was where the hell was she the whole movie and why donwe only see her in his room if she claims shes always watching out for him why wasnt she there helping him with Aggie? She gave great advice but i believe his grandmother was special she wasnt just a ghist who passed she explained that naturally she was supposed to pretty much be in paradise with her husband and his grandfather but she CHOSE to stay to look out for him what does that sound like? A ghost? No more like his guardian Angel to me. I find it weird shes the ONLY spirit we see in the end but no others but it would make sese for her tibstaybsince her unfinished business is/was to take care if her grandson the activities where just a bonus reason she stayed lol i deff considered her more a guardian than a normal spirit who died suddenly i wonder if the promise she made had any significance on her staying vs going to the land of the dead as well. Where was she for the entire movie? Watching tv in Norman's room? Lol 😆

Actually Agatha is his great great something aunt from he’s moms side you should look it up Norman and Agatha shippers..

What i wanna know is how did Norman get his ability? Because it looks like it was passed on down the family line.

Read the book. Many of your questions are answered clearly in the book.

In defense of "The Boxtrolls" I should say that it also has a long timeline where a mystery is unveiled of an abduction about a dozen years before the start of the story. I think it is a better movie than Paranorman, although they are both very good. The Boxtrolls has a memorable performances by Sir Ben Kingsley as the villain and Elle Fanning as a friend of the protagonist. Also the random philosophical reflections of one of the villains henchmen (Mr. Trout, played by Nick Frost) are hilarious. Despite the immense amount of humor in the script, the story still has an overriding heartfelt message. I would not have even seen this movie if someone had not given me the DVD as a gift. Looking at the cover I thought it probably would not be my cup of tea, but I was very wrong. It was great.

boxtrolls is actually really good!

Who says the "curse" only follows the paternal or male line? There would have been more females down the years.And with a small town Agie could have been Normans multi great aunt on BOTH sides. And it may not have skipped any generations, they just kept quiet about it, not wanting to get their necks stretched too.

I have a little theory of my own about Agatha’s mother what if the reason Agatha‘s mother couldn’t stop them from taking her is because she was dead and the only way I could talk to her was through her power because

I really like this big theory set that has just been mentioned.
