Secrets of the Maw - What Happened to the Girl? Hidden Meaning of the Collectables? (My Theory) 

I think the girl might be dead and this is my theory why. After successfully escaping the nursery the girl runs into a room with only one way out, a tunnel. Desperate to escape the clutches of the Maw, the girl jumps down the tube and makes her way through the start of the depths until a leech supprises and attacks her. She drops her torch and is dragged away by the leech, which explains the leech and the black mess, then there is a struggle. She manages to stand up and begins to run, leaving foot prints and is covered in black mess. However, despite her efforts she is caught and dragged away again but tries to grab the wood, the hand print. She can't hold on and is killed by the leech. That's as far is I've gotten to anyway. 😄

She's...definitely dead. She foot prints and hand print seemed as if she was wounded or desperate and attempted to escape her situation. But on the other side of the wood was a leech. I'm pretty sure she is long gone. In the little nightmares comic, it's quite clear that the leeches are capable of swallowing children whole as well, which is why you don't see a body.

4:43 HAHAHAHA I'M DEAD "Don't play with food"

My theory is that eight, I will be calling the girl that for this story, is alive at this point of the story and might be dead near the end. Let me explain. After entering the depths eight sees a leach and gets scared. She drops her flashlight. She is attacked but manages to break lose and run leaving the footprints. The black stuff in the corner after that is the other victims items. She is attacked by grannie and grannie somehow breaks the back of her dress and is comes off. After that the dress washed to shore, you can only the the front so that means you can not see the break. Next eight escapes she is running in the showers that explains grannies handprint. I think after that she was caught by the janitor. She is one of the children in the cages at the end of the chapter. This means she might have escaped the janitor or she might be dead. So this leads to a unsolved question but if leads to a bit of what might have happened to the flashlight girl.

I think she was stuffed in a fish

I've got a theory on how Six fit into this exact timeline. That room Seven (I know it's The Runaway Kid but most fans, including myself, call him Seven) was in was a different room. Once Six got into the room below, the Janitor left the room. What he was trying to do was catch that little child, which he caught in the beginning. Now for the tricky part. The little girl with the flashlight was escaping after Six entered the room where she encountered the Janitor for the first time. So how would that explain the cloth going down the escape vent if the girl just escaped and Six only got to that room afterwards? That's because that girl with the flashlight is a ghost. She was one of the first few children who tried to escape but failed, so now her ghost always imitates the same thing, haunting that area. The only thing I won't be able to explain is the flashlight not running out of batteries. Anyways, back to the ghost girl. The blood trail you see of hers after the flashlight looks black, which means she's been dead for a long time. So that means the cloth has been there for a long time too, just in time for Six to climb up and go into that room, and continue her adventure to escape the Maw. To Seven, it looked like she was escaping as a living child but she was really a ghost.

im really glad to see that little nightmares has a more complex story then we thought, i love mysteries where it feels like piecing a puzzle together.

"This looks like her dress...Did she leave it there?" *Theory in a nutshell.*

You could see a streak of blood before the hand print and the foot prints. I think she ran away from the blood or something. Then was dragged by the granny. And tried to hold on to the wall hence the left hand symbol, the hand in the bag was her left hand aswell. My theory.

She is so mysterios, at first i thought it was six xF

Honestly I'm thinking the Janitor must be somewhat related to the granny. Going back to the first game the Janitor was blinded and could only hear movement. He wraps children up in bags and delivers them too the chefs. What if he didn't *know* they were children. What if he thought they were animals or something. What he was told that! Also he sorta seems like a Mommas Boy which I find adorable. Also his small little room has nice paintings and he seemed happy in a picture. Certainly someone had to have taken that photo/painted it. Since the janitor can't see I don't think it would be him. So maybe it was the Granny who did it. Maybe the janitor IS good. But he doesn't know who's lives he's taking. Aswell as the uses of CAGE'S! They are mostly used on animals. So obviously someone had ought to tell the Janitor they were animals. Which (as I said before) would be the twin chefs. The Janitor seems innocent. And now his arms are cut of so he's worthless. And now I think since he's worthless the chefs have decided to use him as food. Thanks but that's just a theory. *A GAME THEORY*!

Ask Granny! She knows the best :D

maybe she did survive but the janitor must have got ahold of her like the Runaway Kid was at the end of the depths.

also loving your theory videos!

I think she could be alive.This is why.What if they *wanted* you to think that she’s dead. In the residence cover we can see a hidden enemy. If it is, it could be the girl. When you play as six you see 2 paintings of a girl in a raincoat and a girl without one. The one without a raincoat could be ther girl that we see trying to escape. She could be six’s sister too. Thank you all for listening!👌🏻

My therory: I think she escaped and was found by The Lady and transformed into a gnome, or she died from the janitor and The Runnaway girl (or Eight) and was foled and was given to the twin chefs, orr that was the ghost her doing that thing again and again and she thinks she is still alive and trying to escape but always failed, orrr she is the sister to six and she escaped but there was no way to get off the boat except for swimming, orrrr she survived and wrote notes to any one else trying to escape and help them. (btw this is my theory and if there is any disagreements please tell me) Bu thats just a therory.... A GAME THEORY! See you next time ^^ (Yes I stole that from Game Theroy)

It could be that she was taken by the Janitor because earlier in the game(where six was in) the Janitor was beginning to wrap a body similar to her. Also, how could have the Granny get her from that far of a distance, not to mention she is mainly in water.

Finally a theory video! Cool! Keep it up, you're te best Little Nightmares youtuber bigsurf!

Well since the footprints stop abruptly in the path of the leech, I assumed that she was attacked by one, dropping her flashlight, and then the leech began to drag her. She began to run away from it, but ultimately it caught up to her and killed her, dragging her out to water, accidently ripping her dress, and then leaving her sucked out body in the water. As for the flotsams, I assumed they were from other children who managed to escape.

Sorry for the long comment. Possible spoilers ahead, so please read at your own risk! :D THEORY: Maybe the little girl is Six. I think it might be, and here's why I think this. 1.) While going up to the Lady's room, you see a picture of a girl in a dress who looks like the girl who is running away. The picture is thought to be Six, because it looks like Six too ((plus the picture, the girl and Six all have short hair)). 2.) The girl could have had a struggle with the leech, but got away and took her dress off before getting into the water to make it easier for her to swim away. 3.) We don't see the girl anymore, but we see a dead rat. This could be Six's doing, because of how hungry she gets and how it seems she has no problem eating rats/gnomes. 4.) Since we don't see the girl, a ton of things could have happened to her. She could of died, or she could have found a raincoat in one of the rooms! Maybe a room that was hers, since it's a theory that the Lady is Six's mom. If so, then it'd make since that she'd have her own room. Looking at the raincoat, it looks new. This might be why Six is the only one who has clean clothes. ((Since she changed :D)). 5.) At the end of the Depth DLC, you see the boy you play as in a cage, and you also see Six in a cage. The Janitor guy could have mistook Six as one of the kids trying to run away, hence him putting her in the cage. He couldn't have known it was her, since she had her hood up. But the boy would know it's the runaway girl plus you see him after Six breaks out of the cage and he tosses her food when she is hungry! :) ((Side theory, what if the boy you play as in the DLC is related to Six, which is why the Janitor didn't kill him after capturing him?))

Ahhhh Granny please! Don't do it nooo it not good

1. Like 2. Watch the video

What if it was not a real girl . What if that is Granny captured and eat that girl who just run away from maw a long time ago . And what if Granny has abilitis to shape shift on few time . She found an information adout another one child who trying to escape the maw , granny want to cautch him and she shape shift in form like that girl, found childrens dress (dressing it on her self) find a flash light to draw the boy . Would you follow a child whith out any light ? No because more than 40% you just don't notice them . Than granny unerstand that is we follow her clearly , but tge light is hurts for grannys eyes and she leave the flash light . When we find a dead rat granny were still in a girl form and she was hungry (but she can wait a little bit ) I belive that is granny don' t have any teeth and forgot about them a long time ago and she just shallowing a victim whole , but mouth of a little girl were too small for grannys habit and she just leave rat die . Than granny was very very hungry she found a leech and eat that in girl form than she tierd of shape shifting and turn in her true form .After eating a leech grannys hands are in ink and she wipes off her hand about wall thereby leave the hand print . Than granny leave the dress and enters the water . After this we already know her story . P.S.: Congradilations , you read this rutine !!!

I think she is alive and escaped my theory is this The girl gets out her cell she did see the other kid/child so she runs as fast she can and seven aka the runaway kiddo just saw the kid/child that have catches by the janitor anyways the girl has wrote those letters inside the bottles cause maybe there will be more prisoners escaped so they can Read it to know where to go but seven aka the runaway kid didnt read it cause he's on hurry when the girl makes the rope she did it for who escaped as well when the girl jump on the pipe she hurried and she drops the torch to hit the sleech when she is now on the room full of water she get rid of her clothes for the janitor didnt know if she escaped or not when the girl was hungry she saw a rat so she eat it and escaped

Looked like the girl from the paintings.

Wow I never though of the bottles being secret messages

4:57 I think she fell in that hole because she didn’t have a flashlight, and it was super dark so she fell. Just a theory, but I kinda agree more with your theory.

"Dont play with Food" 👌😂

I think that maybe it has something to do with thay hand print. maybe that room was flooded and the girl solved it but the granny also got her as well. Maybe the granny left that room before it flooded completely and took the girl as well. maybe grandma is nice and wants hugs and wants a child.

Nice

I miss Seven always 😞😞 he didn't deserve to die for the dangerous girl Six

I think personally she was grabbed by the Janitor. Firstly because there's a possible chance he grabbed her from above, which would shock her and make her drop the flashlight. Also in the main storyline you can actually see the Janitor wrap up the very same girl. If a leach or the granny got her they are most likely to eat her. But if they did, how did the Janitor get her in one piece?

You make some of the most enjoyable videos about this game. Keep it up.

Dude you're not just the best youtuber and surfspot eu, you're also my favourite youtuber!

My interpretation of the timeline here: Runaway Kid and the girl have already gone down the drain a long time ago by the time Six even reached the rope hanging out of the window vent. Since the drain is already closed when Six reaches it, the Janitor probably already found out about their escape and made sure to close it, which is why he was probably looking out for the Kid's return so he could recapture him. While Six is walking around during the first chapter, the Kid is also facing Granny and swimming through the Depths while evading her. When Six's first hunger sequence happens, the boy at the cafeteria throws her bread, which lead me to the conclusion: the boy who threw Six some bread is _not_ the Kid. My explanation to why that is is because, Six and the Kid's paths cross only after Six's second hunger sequence at the cages when she eats the raw meat, and when she wakes up, a cage is being dragged away, which is the Kid. It's impossible for the Kid to have been at the cafeteria if he gets caught after he beats the Granny, where the Janitor probably caught both Six and the Kid close to the same time. So, the boy at the cafeteria isn't the Kid. The Kid had just finished electrocuting the Granny with the TV and climbing up the ladder the same time Six eats the piece of raw meat at the cages and gets caught. So the Janitor caught them both without much time in between.

She's still alive. So she dropped the torch in panic when she encountered the leech. The ink doesn't stay on you forever, it is gonna come off at some point. After she made her escape...

I think the collectables are totally hammer

4:41 "Don't play with *FOOD*"

In the room with the last clue, the large hand print, there is a hole in the floor. The girl is flashlightless and may have been not paying attention to what was in front of her when running away. Depending on what happens when you fall down the hole, she may have died by falling into it.

I feel like she’s out there trying to find a safe place far far away from the corrupted world and survive

Amazing video dude! The dlc is awesome!!!!

Ich roll mich vor angst zusammen!!!

There's another girl and a boy!?!

at 2:34 on the left you can see a big puddle of something, blood? when i looked further i think i see the girl curled up dead in the puddle maybe the leech attacked her, she droped her flashlight and tried to drag herself away, after finally getting up she ran to the side and tried to pull it off, she failed to and died next to the wall, the leech was going back to its pouncing position but you came right after she died

Cool dude! This theory is best!

I enjoy this a lot

What happened to the girl? a. Attacked by a leech b. Captured by the granny c. Captured by the janitor d. Carved by the twin chefs e. Eaten by the guests f. The lady transformed her into a gnome or g. Did she finally escaped

It’s a good theory, but it doesn’t really match up as well... I also have a theory as well. (Please read if you have time :).) So, the “flashlight girl” to me, look a awful lot like the girl in the photos in some of the DLC and in the first original game. Like, the child.. With the black hair that normally standing next to the lady in the portraits. Well, to me, I think she was either her daughter, or the next lady because they look so much alike. But once the “flashlight girl” dies, Six then is there to take the “flashlight girls” place. This other person theorized that the cooks and the janitor only cook and use dead children. It fits in perfectly, since the person who the Janitor grabs, (which is the flashlight girl,) well, the Janitor if you look closely.. He’s not harming her. Another person also explained that the lady loves children. She hums, (in a sort of calming way) she has a ton of toy dolls, shadow children, and she didn’t hurt the runaway kid, only make him a nome. And so I think the people who work at the Maw, (such as the Janitor, and the cooks) are probably aware that she loves children, and to not harm them so once the flashlight girl “died,” (it’s still not clear whether she did or not, but I think it fits) ya know, in that room were you find the leach, the Janitor might have saw her and took her. In the first game, you can see the Janitor picking up someone from the cage and doing something with it. The girl looks exactly like the person the Janitor was carrying. YOUR WELCOME :)

Great theory dude!

I'm pretty sure the leech got her and either ate her or wrapped her in slime because behind the leech there is a pile of slime big enough for her to be wrapped in

If that Girl is alive then im sure we will find more Clues about her in the Next Chapter

cool video! thanks for making it

Thanks very much for the video

This video is just as fresh as the tomatoes from my garden! Do you want to get a nice little bite? They are delicious!

I love ur videos their the best they tell us secrets that we don't know and they show us clues and funny gameplays, your the best youtuder that does Little Nightmare, I love it!!!!!!!!!! I can't wait till the next episode.

In fact, when we are there, there are six of us and we see the janitor packing bodies, you can see the girl's body.

i think we should wait until the next chapter is released

I got the shivers! :0

Now that I know of those clues I think that she is still alive and might be the next character for a future dlc, it's possible that she can be but we aren't really sure yet and also nice theory video!

She gets turned into a Gnome ... You'll understand everything if you play the DLCs 1st, then the main game ...

Keep it up dude!

big surf I love your VIDEOS!

I thinks so, because all the bottles may be a message to help the children that do escape

I like your theory video . Keep it up!

Cool! A fresh video!

Epic! Wheres the notification squad!?

The runaway girl was turned into a nome in the hideaway chapter

I think she was startled by Roger and dropped her flashlight while running away. Then Roger caught her and put her in the cage he is dragging back into the Prison when Six sees him on the bridge for the first time.

nice u make me watch it at 2 am

I think she survived and is six because we never got a good look at there face and she could have ditched her dress for a rain coat because of it being so wet

Generally speaking, this game doesn't offer any lasting pieces of hope, sunshine or happily ever afters. With this in mind, I do think she met some kind of horrifying end, although it's anyone's guess as to what and where. I don't think she wrote the notes in the flotsams either as her trail goes cold fairly early on and those notes show up in the most surprising places with little to no clues as to whom left them or when.

This theory is interesting ! you're the best bigsurf !

I love you're channel bigsurf!

this is dipping nice!

I don’t think she is in the bag in the water, because The Janitor makes bags and the Granny doesn’t “””care””” about these things, instead she *eats* things. So I don’t think she is in the bag. But you opened my eyes, that is, why do I have to look for theories that aren’t proved, when I can examine the details? The rat, the prints, the bottles... You’re right! It must be a sign, or somethig. Before this video I couldn’t understand why there were so many bottles with messages in the maps, but now... Good job!

I have two theories on the girl, 1) she's dead.... the dress that you find on the floor is possibly Granny's, if you search for the Granny's bio, it said that she was abandoned, which could mean that she has been there for a long time, hence the small dress, which could mean she aged, and if you look closely, Granny is wearing that same dress or similar dress. 2) the girl turned into Granny, think about it, maybe the leach doesn't actually kill you, but turns you into a monster, which would explain why we never see the child actually devoured by the leach. I would also explain why there was a hand print of Granny on the wall created with ink from the leach. I can't guarantee any of these theories are true..... but it's fun to think about

4:07 Was that the rat that you threw last time? *rocket rat*

Wolkenkratzer in meinen Mandeln

At the end there are two clues, the girl jumped into the big pipe system while the granny was there , who turned to the water, and the girl survived injured, and finds a boat to take away anywhere...but that horrid place

Awesome!!! I always thought that the girl was Six,but after seeing this video... :o

Sau geil! Eyy man

Whenever he/she (Sorry :p) says granny I keep thinking of Six's mom...wait...I'm still confused xD

Am I the only person that thinks this, or am I just going a little crazy? Ok here goes Everybody knows that that’s the lady’s daughter, and that’s the girl you play as in mobile game “ very little nightmares”. Right? Oh yeah! Guys bonus fact! I think that the lady’s name could be Veronica, that name is In the song you use to distract the janitor.

I think you can find a collectible. Ok so in the room where all the funriture is tied down, the next room where their is a ladder and a hole in the wall. I think your suppose to use the chair and drag it to the next room with to hole in the and get in. Because honestly I don't think they'll put a hole there for nothing. And I have yet to see anyone do it.

next DLC maybe seven eat six

Krass, killing floor update!! Da muss ich alle ketten finden!!

The thing is I always thought she got mauled by the leech, since her footprints stop around there and there is a squarish silhouette by the leech that people say could be her body. However it doesn't look very body-like, there's obviously the dress, and beside the dead rat you can still see some faint black footprints. I don't know how the dress is clean, but there were multiple other escape routes that we couldn't go through - maybe she got through one of those? :P

I believe that the girl was draged away by granny. There was a scuffle, some running, but in the end she was dragged into the depths for granny to snack on. Or... Granny tried to snatch her at the water's edge but only managed to snag her dress and the girl swam away?...

6:20 aparece un rostro en la luz :0

OOHH YEAAH RUN AWAYYY MAA LIL GIRL!!

4:42 *"Don't play it food"* XD

At the end of The Hideaway with all the nomes in front of the furnace, one on the left casts a shadow that resembles to the girl when you flash it.

Wo sind da sie pflanzen da kann ich ja nichts ernten

GIBB HOONIG, GIIIB!!!

Also in the hidden trophy there you have to throw the ball into the bucket there stands "no pulling by the hair" a hint that she also did this or that there is a girl ?

I feel like the same thing happened today the girl as did Runaway, maybe she got picked up by the Janitor? I'm not sure. Maybe she was sneaky and got around another way

Lol the Video is even better than Omas Currywurst!

Oha noch eine!!!

I think this DLC shows the story AFTER the Six. Because like you show it in one of your easter eggs/Secrets video, in the eye, you can see two kids laying on beds. This runaway kid and the girl with a flashlight. The bottles are from the Six. Probably she left them.

You know bro ? You are the awesome youtuber of little nightmare I think,keep it that my brother 👍
