Who Knows The Story of The Crooked Man?

edited February 2014 in The Wolf Among Us

I've seen a lot of theories about Crane, the Headless Horseman, & The Crooked Man. And it all honestly ties together. Facts throughout the story show both women dead have their heads cut off (Headless Horseman). There is a ribbon placed around their necks, clearly there is a spell put on the ribbon that prevents them from talking about work/ who they work for. Here's an idea, Georgie may be their boss, but what if the Headless Horseman/Crane is his boss? And he's (Headless Horseman personnel) the one who put the spell on the ribbons & he's the only one who can take it off, hence killing the women? Now what does any of that have to with the Crooked Man? The split personality Crane might have. The story of which I've heard, along with the British nursery rythme, is about a man named Duke (Who turns into the Crooked Man in the story) who lost everything, and hung himself. The story is focused about a man named David, same as Duke, who going through the same things he went through. David complains of voices inside his head, putting him down, and making him do bad things. At first it is thought of because Duke/Crooked Man, but it is later discovered David heard these voices before he moved into the apartment of which Duke had killed himself in. It is also made known that David had his own "Crooked Man". One of the Endings Involves David with a gun to his head and you can see the "Crooked Man" holding David's hand, making him put the gun to his head. I may not be making any sense, but basically the "Crooked Man" in this story, is the same as having a "Dark Side" or "Split Personality". Crooked Man = Split Personality/ Depression/ Dark Side = Headless Horseman. Thoughts?

    "There was a crooked man, and he walked a crooked mile.

    He found a crooked sixpence upon a crooked stile.

    He bought a crooked cat, which caught a crooked mouse,

    And they all lived together in a little crooked house."

    Yes but the Crooked Man from the Wolf Among Us will be from the nursery rhyme I posted because that video game didn't exist when wolf among us takes place (the 80s) and the title of Episode 3 is "A Crooked Mile" which comes directly from the rhyme. Also, other fables are based off just from nursery rhymes, like George Porgie. But it does seem Crooky is being built up to be a major character in episode 3 :)

  • Then what about the Headless Horseman possibly being one casting spells on the ribbons?

  • Don't know about that one, but it's a possibility. I'd love to see the Headless Horseman in TWAU
