A curious clue comes in the form of a picture of Six in the Lady’s Quarters, suggesting a previous relationship between the two. The Maw has many hidden clues surrounding Six and the Lady sporadically, yet cautiously, placed across its many different areas. The fan theory that has often arisen is the identity of the Lady being the mother of Six, an applaudable theory by all recognition, but maybe purposely too obvious. Notably, when Six defeats the Lady at the end and, to much bewilderment, devours her (the game was originally called ‘Hunger’ and it’s a theme that sneaks through the foundation of the story). After completing the game, many fans had their own ideas.

The books will provide more information in regards to the background story of Little Nightmares, as well as answer some questions, in addition to probably raising more questions. Titan Comics is currently releasing comics based on the game. However, other than just another horror game, there’s a twisted meaning hidden on board the Maw. With its Tim Burton inspired graphics and eery silence obscuring premonition before it’s too late, Little Nightmares has audaciously opened the door to our childhood terrors. Tarsier Studios have produced one of the most memorable horror games in recent years when they released Little Nightmares last month.
