  • What's the scariest thing in Coraline? You may be surprised to find that it is NOT the sinister Other Mother... Join me as we uncover just what the most ancient (and most threatening) being in "Coraline" is. We dig deep into the lore of the Neil Gaiman's book and Laika's animated film to discover just how truly menacing it is. I think it has the Other Mother and her minions quite terrified, and something that makes our beloved twisted beldam sweat? (Er, I mean, if she sweats, that is?) You know it's gotta be MONSTROUS. So, let's dive right in, shall we?

      You forgot to mention the part at the beginning of the movie where the other mother seems to somehow release the doll to space and ends up in the trunk of Wyborne's grandmother. Like, how did it even travel there and how did the other mother know of Coraline?

      yes!! there are so many bug theories about coraline, especially the other mother's metaphorical relation to spiders and coraline's to dragonflies. i think there is also something about beetles, and that idea with the caterpillar makes a lot of sense. maybe the tunnel being related to a caterpillar represents how the tunnel itself, along with the other world, seems harmless at first, but becomes more apparently dangerous and deadly.

    The fur theory around 9:10 is actually solid if you consider that cilia (microscopic hairs) are present in throats and mouths for the purpose of transporting the mucus which traps airborne contaminants in the throat. This being followed by the literal description of a mouth-like feeling makes me inclined to believe she is no longer in the belly of the beast, but the maw of the beast

      That could be a possibility, although the movie itself doesn’t really give the tunnel much emphasis aside from it being the connection between the real world and the fake one. I always saw the Other Mother’s cry of “I’ll die without you!” as a last ditch effort to manipulate Coraline and get her to give up on running away. It’s pretty in character of her. But hey, who knows, the writers left a lot up to interpretation, and that’s what makes this story so great. Sometimes what you don’t see is scarier than the things you DO see.

    My theory: (I know it’s far fetched... but just a cool idea) buckle up, it’s a long one :)
    Coraline meets the cat early on in the movie. The cat immediately warns her, but unaware, coraline wanders into the beldams trap. The reason the cat can talk, and knows so much about the other mother is because he once was a kid who wandered in like coraline, but he died, and his spirit escaped. He took the form of a cat, so he knows that the other mother is evil, which explains why he warns coraline about her “game”. The doll is obviously a spy made by the other mother... but what is the other mother? She is an illusionist and a mother who lost her daughter. After her only child passed away, she went crazy and became a hermit. She finds the door one day and meets the entity controlling the other place. She agrees to sell her soul and become a puppet in return of the love and compassion of a child. The other entity uses the child’s greatest wishes to lure them in, but if they catch onto the other mother, they use their fears to catch and feast on them. For example: coraline does not like bugs, the other mother took the form of a bug and had bug themed furniture. The other mother just feasts on the love and energy of the child to fill the emptiness of her lost firstborn, but the other entity feasts on the child themselves. The buttons? The buttons on the eyes are a way of selling yourself to the other entity. It symbolizes being a puppet to use to lure in more kids. They want the children to become puppets like other mother, but once the children are of no use, they become a feast for the other mother and the entity. If the child agrees to sew buttons in their eyes, they are under command of the other entity. The spirit children were once the puppets used by the entity, but they became of no use so they were feasted on. Hence why they are now only spirits that linger around the other world. That also explains the cat! He refused to sew buttons in his eyes, so they feasted upon him. His spirit (since he had no buttons, the entity had no control over his spirit.) escaped and he took form of the cat, to warn children to stay away from beldam. I know it may seem far fetched, but at many points in the movie and book, it suggests this theory!

    What I love about this random detail about the monster that exists in the tunnel is that it handily does a few things:
    1: it establishes a reason why the other mother herself never crosses the boundary. There’s something that even SHE is afraid of.
    2: we never even see or hear a description of what this creature is or even looks like from ANYONE. So it’s left open to our imagination to to be whatever or as terrifying as WE the readers want it to be.
    3: no matter how scary any personal horror entity is, there is always something else lurking (again, leading back to point 1)

  • @hasturking9635
    @hasturking9635 5 років тому +1692

    The other mother might be using the creature, while the creature is dormant, old creatures in mythos tend to sleep for SO long that it would be more like it was dead. The other mother pretty much just moved in and setup shop inside, and with some magic and illusion crafted her means of using the creature's resting body to her own means. With the events with Coraline, well it triggered the creature awakening. And finding some creature living inside your gut, a bit annoying.
    And its been said in a lot of eldritch stories, that the old ones, really do not care about humans, so perhaps its actions as it was waking up, was more towards trying to deal with the other mother. Not that it assumed the other mother was a threat more like a mild annoyence, and Coraline got stuck in the cross fire. More then likely the other mother, minus a hand, is pretty much gone dealt with by the creature. She might have been able to escape death via her hand, and is simply waiting for the creature to stop its stirring and go back to sleep.

      A bit annoying? More like horrifying. Though it is kind of funny to imagine this cosmic incomprehensible beast realizing the other mother is living inside of it and having the same reaction we all would to a stomach parasite. "OH GOD OH GOD EW EW EW EW EW GETITOUTGETITOUT" Then just puking her up and locking the door behind her. There we go, that's the sequel. :p
      Though it is interesting to think of the corridor getting hotter as Coraline left as being a fever response.

    Okay, I have a theory. It’s kinda long though:
    So, I think that the corridor IS alive. And I also think that the corridor is the victim here. Yes. It is, and it’s kind of like the old lady who swallowed the fly; it’s got things inside of it, and that has things inside of that, etc. So, the Pink Palace is some kind of monster (Monster House type thing) but it can’t do anything. It has a parasite that makes it impossible for it to move, eat, act or do anything other than really live and stay there, where it is, forever. That parasite? The corridor. But, the Pink Palace got the upper hand. It managed to kind of hinder it, but not fully. Like getting a pill to stop the pain, but not get rid of the illness completely. It managed to lock up the mouth of the parasite to hopefully starve it to death, but, unfortunately for Coraline, the Pink Palace threw the key in the well (well, maybe got someone who lived there to do it, it’s magical after all) but it basically gave the corridor the key to it’s own survival, literally. And, then, the corridor got a parasite. The other mother. The other mother lives in the throat, and the other mother wants the key for herself because she wants to get OUT of the corridor because it is going to digest her. For now, she’s living off children’s souls, but the corridor feeds on the bodies. Her plan is to get the key and leave so that she can lock up the corridor forever, and after Coraline’s soul she would be strong enough to do that. *That’s why she screams, “COME BACK! I’LL DIE WITHOUT YOU!”* When Coraline tries to run away.
    But hey, that’s just a theory...
    *A CORALINE THEORY!!!*

    Okay so after watching this video i obviously had to run and watch Coraline and i noticed something else. As Coraline walks through the house there's pictures on the walls. If you look closely each picture is the house in different eras of time, including one that looks super sinister in the scene where they try to get her to sew buttons into her eyes. This makes me think the house is far older than it seems to be and whatever this parallel world is isn't just being created by the Beldam, but the house itself which is why they were able to "walk around the world"

    Considering how the Cat travels between the two worlds at will, it's quite likely that it could be a part of whatever entity the corridor is. It would explain why the Other Mother hates the Cat, because wouldn't you also resent the being that traps you in it's cage? It also explains why at the end of the movie, after the Beldam is sealed away, the Cat is still able to disappear behind the fencepost. It's not the Beldam's other world that gives the Cat that power, it's the corridor. The house itself.

    It could be an ancient mimic. Especially old mimics are known to be able to take the shape of entire houses, but due to their incredible size, they spend much of their lives in hibernation and don't ever wake up except to very powerful triggers. Mimics also possess powerful shape shifting capabilities, which could allow for the transformation of the tunnel, and the Other World could just be a morphed version of its slow-moving digestive system to keep prey which accidentally wandered in from trying to escape.
    Just my theory, based on the details collected here. Mimics similarly fill in the role as an ancient and eldritch being of uncertain origins.

I was thinking that the other mother was like the ghosts in The Shining, another part of this great cosmic being that helps it get sustenance from children, because children are a favorite food for many monsters. Though this video kindof is throwing a wrench in that theory, of the other mother not being a mere tendril of this creature, but a parasite trying to escape trying to not become a meal herself

This could be what's happening as the surface starts to become damper and wet. Then for the heat, your body slightly drops in temperature while resting due to lack of movement, for an other worldly creature this temperature change could be significantly more so as it's waking up that could explain the drastic change in temperature.

    I think you are on a very great line of thought.
    However with the tunnel I think it's explainable naturally (for the most part). For example going dry to moist. When many animals wake from hibernation their mouths are dry from not putting salivary glands to work very much while asleep.
    Also our throats have an easier time pushing down than regurgitation. So Coraline going into the Other World aka Mother's Web is like a swallow. Coraline pushing out to escape is like trying to cough up that ill-begotten piece of food. Trying to cough something up takes longer.
    The mouths in the might speak of more of a lamprey or octopus/squid sucker kind of monster. The little moutha/suckers are supposed to ease food towards the mouth.
    A food that has been getting stuck halfway down and then going back up for the past 72 hours, after the creatures reawakening.
    And if you're right about the tunnel being a creature... The Other Mother freakout when Coraline left with the key makes more sense.
    The key is her way to lure the children into the bigger predator( from your video here)
    They feed her, that process in turn feeds BigBad, through Other Mother.
    If my only "neighbor" was a hibernating tunnel of bad news I would be starved for attention, imagintion, praise, and fun. All things that she brings out in the children that she has brought in beyond the door. Why she gets a twinkle when her competitive nature is challenged.
    In the movie she say she will die without her. Which is true now... the Other Mother and Coraline shenanigans have awoken the beast to all its faculties.
    It WILL be hungry.
    It has LOST the same meal OVER and OVER again like a tease.
    Once Coraline is out for good... It's going to FEED on whatever is left inside.

    This had me thinking, and me being me just couldn't get the question of what the corridor is out my head so I decided to do a little searching in ancient mythology to see if there is anything there that could be similar to that of this corridor. I actually found something quite interesting in ancient Egyptian mythology. In ancient Egyptian mythology they believed of there being gates in the underworld, 12 to be exact. Most of the gates were just that, gates guarded by minor gods but the 5th gate struck me as interesting. Compared to the other gates this one is the goddess "Lady of Duration", I found this interesting because it said that this gate is a goddess which means its a living being. Something else worth noting is that the goddess is called "Lady of Duration" and duration means the time during which something continues. This could possibly mean that this goddess has some type of control over time or how long something last. Now, that I've explained that I'll link it to this beast in Coraline. Coraline stated that traveling through the corridor was short but then later on said that it seemed to take forever. If the goddess can control time to a certain extent that could explain why it seemed to have taken only a little bit of time and then later seemed to take a whole lot of time. This would also explain why it seemed ancient since this goddess is quite ancient. This all just assuming that this beast in Coraline is the 5th gate of the underworld in ancient Egyptian mythology. I don't know maybe it is maybe it isn't, I just felt like sharing what I found and what I think the beast is. Thank you to anyone who read this far and feel free to share your findings or thoughts with me:)

    I talked to my sister about this: Being that the other mother can “shape shift” to look like her victims own mothers, it’s a possibility that the more disturbing form seen in the movie isn’t the other mothers final form. It still takes on features of Coraline’s real mother, along with the other father, who also carries on traits to Caroline’s dad. Examples could be the small little details, mostly the hair shows this. My small tiny theory is that in the movie, the more disturbing forms of the other mother and the other father are not their final forms. Also because both of them must be very old, feeding away on the bodies of children for generations, they probably wouldn’t look as visibly pleasing as we see the. In the movie. Also, the other mother must have at least some sort of feature that allows to her to feed on children. Like sharp teeth. Maybe a bit like Pennywises teeth in the movie IT. And as I mentioned before, she still took on features of Coraline’s REAL mother, alike the other father, having features of Coraline’s real dad. Their creepier forms in the movie could be at least their second forms, and if they’re shapeshifters, they could have more than tens of forms to take on. So my small theory is that, the other mother and the other father are not in their true forms. Depending on their age, feeding features, and behavior, it’s a possibility that they could be much more terrifying than we see in the movie

    The other mother feeds off the children attention, the pure and innocent love of a child, wanting nothing more than a mother's love and approval. Since in her life she wasn't loved or had much attention. Then tunnel is a "demon" the well from the beginning of the movie, it feeds off the stress and sadness and fear of a person. Here's the theory the other mother fell in love with a wealthy man she lived in the pink palace with him the she discovered she wasn't the only one, so she jumps into the well she believes love was her life source, the well/demon took pity on her soul and kept her living giving her a job, as long as she lures children into the other world and make them hate reality by giving them a world they dream of when they leave they are sadden and tricked the other world is the only way to be happy the tunnel feeds on their emotions till they drive to the point they jump into the well. The other mother try's to save them by killing them but since she is lonely and doesn't want to risk their soul being eaten anyway she hide their eyes/souls in her world. She is desperate for the key because 1she wants to leave or 2 she wants to destroy it That's my theory on the tunnel and other world.

      My theory is she was a witch who build Pink Palace as her house, but then something happened. maybe she got defeated by the ancient tunnel thingy, the tunnel ate her but she managed to survive thanks to her capability to use magic. She ended up trapped in the other world, even if she could get out from there she was no longer human and cannot live in Coraline's world.

    Well, to support your theory of the monster: 5:34, you explain that there's wind and smells of dust and must, added in with damp. This could be the esophagus of the beast. Like you said, it could all be linked. The first doorway which needs a key to open is the mouth, the tunnel is the throat, esophagus, etc., and then the otherworld is the stomach. The candle being blown out could be the contractions of the tunnel itself, like a snake as you said. A lot of stuff goes on. The pulling wind could be the creature taking in air.

Had she stayed too long with the Other Mother before escaping, she could very well have opened the door and gone the *wrong way* through that hall of downy, furred walls as (to me at least) it seems that Coraline’s touching that wall was how far she’d already been in its digestion before her resistance allowed her to work herself (and probably her soul) out and back upwards

    The creature in the corridor gives me cthulhu vibes. wet, slimy, smells almost mossy, seemingly all-knowing, has centuries full of knowledge, hidden but is said to wake up at some point, has worshippers waiting for said thing to wake up, has respect from other evil entities, etc...

    I have a theory about the furr and such..
    When she felt the fur.. that was the throat of the "beast"... but when she felt the wet.. she was nearing the mouth..?
    A lot of wild animals eat live prey who have scales or fur... sometimes the fur sticks to their throat so I feel like this could be more likely to be what was happening... also what if the other mothers world WAS the stomach? It would help the atomic situation and if she is crawling out of the throat of the beast.. then it would've made sense..

      Interesting theory. The other mother would be equivalent to gut bacteria, she helps “break down” the victim, stealing their souls and wills so the physical body would be easier for the tunnel monster to digest. Maybe this is an implication that there are far more creatures like the other mother, each serving as a part of the tunnel monster’s gut biome. Maybe the tunnel monster is hell itself-hell isn’t a place, it’s a single creature, and it’s stomach is filled with demons that form a symbiotic relationship with it.

    When the Beldam said she’d die without Coraline... she meant she was gonna die without her, meaning that to survive, she would have to get her food source from coraline’s love.... if the Beldam feeds off of the love, she can survive. Without the love..... she will die of starvation without Coraline to be her source of food

    • @juliadietrich3584
      @juliadietrich3584 4 роки тому +23

      @Goose maybe she is just now running out of her 'food'. Maybe it lasts for a couple decades before she needs a new child to feed off of. Anyway, if she took children every couple weeks (starting right after the previous child), humans would certainly notice how many children were disappearing, and would try to find the source and eliminate it. Maybe the beldam can handle a few humans, but a whole city, state, country, continent, or even earth? No. She needs to be stealthy.

      SuperRosalina Gaming maybe she made a deal with this monster that she can be immortal if she take children souls but she has to stay in the monster. Maybe the monster has a thing where if someone enters their “dream world/ perfect world” they have to be taken. Coroline acted differently then all of the other kids and escaped the bedlam was going to die because she would fail the deal. Which of course led to her escaping with her hand but steal fails and dies. Fun fact she actually not dead. A part of her “the hand” is stuck at the bottom of the well. Cause she lost all her powers so she is never going to die unless someone finds her. So she could have been died because she failed the deal. But nope she survives forever at the bottom of a well. :) great

    The concept of the OM as a parasite reminds me so much of The Ocean at the End of the Lane. Even the main antagonist, Ursula, was actually a lowly little worm in the face of the alternate dimension. I wonder if there's a connection to this story and Coraline in Neil's mythos. Perhaps I'm reading into it too much, but that's what makes it fun, for me anyway.

    @pumpedupkicks4480 3 роки тому +92

    This theory is absolutely amazing!! I see that you got confused on the anatomy/biology of the “beast” so here is my take on it. I believe that rather the other mothers domain itself is the “belly” of the beast- simply taken over by its parasite (the other mother) like a tapeworm. That transition from furry texture to warm and wet can be explained like this: some animals (forgive me i forgot which) have “hairs”/“spines” along the insides of their throat that help push their prey into its maw and down to its stomach. And of course, as you go it gets warmer and wetter as the prey goes down. My theory could have some holes but thats at least how i interpret it.

  • @peterlewerin4213
    @peterlewerin4213 4 роки тому +57

    I would go with a quasi-Lovecraftian creature with a physical form but not existing in the physical world. Coraline's decision to try opening it brings her into contact with the creature, and it conveys her to the Other World (as well as spies on her home). The Other World is a trap where the creature keeps a powerful symbiotic entity or avatar that it dresses up in forms that the prey will trust. If the prey agrees to stay in the Other World, the symbiotic entity (or avatar) gets to keep it, but as the soul wastes away, the creature is also nourished.

  • @sukidable

    I actually watched Coraline for the first time because of your last video, but this... thing was the thing that haunted me the most about your last video. The idea of the tunnel (or the entire dimension the tunnel is in) being the inside of some kind of horrific monstrosity way beyond the Beldam's league made my skin crawl. Even though the movie never really alludes to it, it made it verrryyy uncomfortable to watch the scenes where Coraline is in the tunnel because I still can't help but imagine even in the movie that it exists. It really makes me wonder what exactly is going to end up happening to The Beldam now that she's lost her prey, her world has fallen apart, she's stuck, and the interdimensional behemoth is awake.
    That said, I actually interpreted the well as being the gateway to a different creature's realm. A fae's domain perhaps. That also might end poorly for the Beldam's hand as the other creature may not appreciate intruders. ... sheesh, either way looks like old B is screwed.

    Im pretty sure that the bottom of the well is where Coraline meets the ghosts, where the beldam keeps her past victims. I do not think it is part of the tunnel, but it's still scary enough because if they dropped the key down there all the beldam has to do is grab the key from the bottom behind the mirror. This could also have something to do with the cat disappearing at the end..?
    Also I know there is a lot of speculation that the cat couldn't disappear and reappear like it does in the other world, but where is the proof in that? Just because he doesn't dosent mean her CANT. It literally says that the beldam tries to keep him out but he obviously still gets in. If he was just going through the door then she could easily stop him, meaning that he must possess the power in the real world to go to the other dimension. He also seems like he is sentient in the real world as shown when he tries to stop Coraline and when he's mad that the she threw him at the beldam.
    One more thing not related to anything... - the cat is my favorite character. Like just his personality and mysteriousness..
