suspicion Thread

So I love mysteries. Simply love them, and with The Wolf Among Us I have been absolutely engrossed in everything that's going on. With the story unfolding as each episode gets released I delve more and more into different fables from around the world that might have something to do with the over all plot, and I think I may be onto something.

From the first episode, when Faith states "These lips are sealed" and points to her ribbon the first thing I noticed was the set of lips that were imprinted on the ribbon. Then Bigby finds the ribbon in her mouth as her head is laying on their office steps. Following this, there are four other girls with similar ribbons, one who is murdered and two others. At first, I believed that it was ichabod, as the decapitation fits his own personal story even if he didn't actually do the decapitations himself. I believe we are meant to believe that Blue Beard is involved, simply because of his past, but I don't believe he is responsible. There are hints strewn throughout the episode that just released about Ichabod's corruption, but there are also other noteworthy things, such as the constant phrase "These Lips are sealed."

Upon hearing this for the last time, I couldn't help but ask myself "Why does that sound familiar?" Initially I went to believe that The Sea Witch from The Little Mermaid was the villain, as she grants The Little Mermaid the ability to walk on land and seek out her prince, but steals her voice, or rather her tongue, in order to do so. But now, I started to ask myself about a different fairy tale that everyone should be familiar with: Sleeping Beauty. Sleeping Beauty was put to sleep by a vindictive fairy, and cursed to sleep for 100 years over some party fo-pah and "Little Brier-Rose" would wake with a kiss. The very act of the curse was to seal Brier-Rose to sleep and input to all a "These lips are sealed" pause on Brier-Rose's life.

Long story short, that I believe that if I have read through the clues properly (which I probably haven't) then my suspicions point me to the fairy who cursed Sleeping Beauty (Aurora/Brier-Rose) to sleep. That's about all I got...

  • i don't think so, The hand out the car window was clearly a mans. Although Telltale is to smart to have the Obvious Bluebeard as the killer. I think in Episode 4 - In Sheeps Clothing, we will meet the killer but not actually know their the killer. He will gain our trust but then betray us.

  • Right now my suspects are:

    The Crooked Man(I assume that was him in the taxi waving his hand at bloody mary)

    Bluebeard(he's up to something but seems to obvious to be the killer. maybe he's working with them?)

    The ginger guy seems suspicious it can't be a coincidence that we're running into him everywhere plus I noticed they pretty much showd he was our taxi driver. It's like he's stalking bigby

    Those seem like the top 3 suspects atleast to me.

  • I'm actually pretty suspicious of Vivian. Some of the things she says are forboding to the point of being kind of inappropriate, and she seems capable of pulling a scheme like that off.
