The Coraline Parent Theory

Coraline's Parent's aren't REAL!

The Coraline Door Theory:
The Coraline Slave Theory:

[fairymystonight]

The only thing I disagree about “going out tonight” and doing fun things, is that you missed a crucial scene where coraline and her mother had some development. Coraline was mad for not getting the gloves and the mom says, something along the lines of If things go well today I promise to make it up to you. And coraline didn’t believe her because that’s what the mom always says. The mom looked genuinely sad and I think that’s why she changed her actions in the end of the movie compared to how she was in the beginning.

I remember I saw a theory that the Beldam is a type of fairy/faerie, and a way to tell if a faerie is near by is the fruits and vegetables rot. That’s of course not the full theory but that part stuck out to me

[kadzle]

I'm going completely honest i never noticed the real mums neck brace i always thought she was just wearing a turtle neck

There are posters for the Shakespeare festival taking place (inspired by a real festival in the location that inspired Coraline). The kid on the stool is saying “My kingdom for a horse” and play-swordfighting. The men outside the shop are Shakespeare cosplayers. Their behaviors def make sense

When I was a kid, I hated her parents. Now that I’m an adult (don’t have kids) I kinda get it.. they were stressed from moving to a new house. The dad was exhausted and stressed trying to meet a deadline.

Not all parents can be happy and bubbly and perfect.

Also she said no to these expensive gloves while trying to spend the money they had on getting her the stuff she needed for school.. idk… I get it

Once they were done with their work and were able to relax more, we see how much they really love her in the end.

haven’t seen the movie in a while, so I’m probably missing something. I would like to know, though, why the Beldam would leave the snow on the parents when they “got back home”. One extra layer to make Coraline believe that it all really *did* happen and the parents were saved?

3:44 She was probably just inspecting them or looking for the price tags. Everyone else, though, was pretty strange.

Again, haven’t seen the film in a while, but when her parents say “finish the catalog”, I’m pretty sure that they just meant that they’d finish writing it and drop it off wherever they needed to. It’s not like her parents hate her or anything; they’re just busy with the moving and the work and the mother’s injury. It makes sense that with the work done, they could have time to go out.

Well, the cat *is* magic, or at least implied to be, so that’s why he disappears like that. Otherwise, why would the Beldam do make it do that when nobody’s around to see it?

I thought the mom was actually just wearing a silly neck accessory 😭 I can't believe I didn't put two and two together when she mentions "the accident'

I really like how you close your theory videos with "I don't know, I'm probably overthinking." Instead of "But hey, that's just a theory."

[sanstheskeleton]

That actually is an interesting thought especially the food that's the first time I'm ever seeing something about that it's one of those scenes you forget

[star-pibh]

btw the kid who rides down the stairs on a stool says "my kingdom for a horse"

[PaxTheCat]

The more you analyze the Film the worse/creepier it would be. I love the effort put into the Film, to make it so open(theories, details)

[GrilledCheese_Master]

I would’ve thought this video was from a larger channel based on the quality of this video

[maymay]

hey bro, you and the fangirl need to collaborate on this because i didn't even consider that notion in the movie!
also i recommend both the fangirl and the theorizer because there's so many stuff we miss
remember that clothes shopping scene, the fangirl video brought this up that the belldam was spying and got coraline the clothes, but i forgot they were indeed in the snow globe

They Could’ve had their memories lost after Coraline saved them

Good theory like 10/10
but have you ever been to Oregon?
Weird people are everywhere
When i was in elementary and taking a field trip to the city someone screamed at my group that we were all going to die

[mask_vids]

neighbors being nice to a kid they'll probably have living in whats basically their house is pretty normal especially if they want that kid to behave themselves.

[Christian_Hrnandz]

How did I barely realize that the real mother has a neck brace?!?!?!?! I always thought it was a removable turtle neck that came with her sweater. It does partially explain her attitude in the beginning of the film, I think.

[PeachyCatty]

y'all just hate happy endings i think 😭

6:19 "wHaT's GoTtEn InTo YoU cOrAlINe" 🤣

[Sewlexii]

I think this theory is actually true, they practically told us she never made it out with the cat at the end.
