I Found The Other Bird! Whether He Is Still Apart Of Welcome Home Or Not Who Knows. He Could Be Like

Is Wally truly a puppet?

And no I don’t mean in the sense that he was a person before hand. (Please note this info is from memory as the site is down)

First off, the Restoration Team of Welcome Home talks about how they are finding pictures and old paraphernalia from the show. They talk about old scripts and show parts of books, but at no point do they talk about having the actual puppets. Yet Wally is seen as present.

Both in his drawings in the guest book as well as some other messages, it is shown that Wally is active and aware of the site.

Going back to the Restoration Team, hidden in the Q&A section there are hidden messages about needing to get it out and that it hurts both alluding to something in the Team leader’s head.

In order to supposedly get whatever is hurting the Team leader out of his head he started the website and the restoration project. And what if he did? What if it was Wally in his head that he had to get out and in doing so put him into the website? Maybe not fully or maybe letting Wally interact at least keeps him quiet, but most of the signs of Wally being around seem more like they come from inside the website than anything. Especially if they do not have his puppet, it makes me wonder what Wally is.

I know that Clown has made a few post talking about Welcome Home more relating to gaining a concise and awareness, so I know that the thought is mainly a puppet gaining sentience, but is he just a puppet? 

Most of this is just speculation and such but I still think it should be consider that Wally may not be confined to his puppet body.

And there I saw it

The collapsed civilizations

Their crumbling towers and the sands of long lost fields of green

How ironic that I found it in the dust

Your everyday dust that lines the surfaces long forgotten

Never noticed when looked at from above

Only when one looks level to what is there will they see it

The remains of what was

And I wonder

Will there come a day when something looks upon our world with the same apathy as we look at dust

Nothing more than an irritant to be swept away

Instead of the corpse of a once flourishing culture and race

Okay so much was learned in the new update. So once again if you haven't seen it just ignore this for now if you don't want spoilers.

This is probably the biggest info we gain in this update and it's found in the audio of the new Halloween book. With everyone trying to tell scary stories and most failing, Sally steps up to show them a truly scary story. And scary indeed. Why is it the neighbors stay inside every night? It's because of visitors from far away come and eat any neighbors still outside. Or at least that's how Sally puts it. But still, I can't put into words how many ideas this new info gives us. Especially in how aware Sally is about the whole thing, not only its existence and how it's the reason there are so few neighbors but also in that she has heard it, listened for it so clearly. What's more, it's searching for something. At the part where the audio starts to skip and repeat on the word searching, there seems to be an underlining sound. As for what it actually says I'm not sure, but it vaguely sounds like Wally. Of course, this may be incorrect, but if it's not? Then a whole new curiosity appears. Because at first, I think of these visitors from afar who take those out at night to be the people who work on the set but the fact they are supposedly eating things up doesn't seem right. If you've seen my other post you'd know that I have a theory that at some point something a little more eldritch was brought to Welcome Home and that it connects to Wally's presence on the website despite the lack of his original puppet. I bring this up because if it is Wally the supposed "visitor" is searching for then perhaps this is before the "corruption" I suppose. The black goo. Of course, this is all just speculation, but it seriously gives some new thoughts. Especially in that maybe this awakening wasn't an accident but an unexpected turn of events if its aim was Wally.

Frank does not have any known information regarding his origins prior to moving into Home when compared to the others.

Welcome Home Website

While Clown is taking a break, I have been trying to fill the void in my soul that craves Welcome Home. Since I can’t draw or write stories, I have decided to simply look for new things. Whether on the site or made by others. While doing so I noticed that of all the characters Frank is the only one without a backstory of any kind other than Home and Wally. Julie came from a cave where she lived with her sisters. Sally is a star that came down from the sky. Poppy grew too big to live in the nest with her family. Eddie came from another town to build a post office. Howdy is a caterpillar who want to start a business? Doesn’t really explain his size but eh. And Barnaby who left the farm and his adoptive mother to live in the neighborhood. But Frank has nothing of note. No family or mention of where he lived beforehand. Now the fact that Frank is also a outlier in his more grey color and frowning face plus that he was usually a source of information makes me wonder about his past.

Hello there.

Why do I feel like no one ever talks about the eyes scattered in the sides of the Welcome Home page?

I see so many people talk about this picture that Clown made right? But all anyone talks about is Wally’s pose. Like we not gonna talk about the shadows of people behind him? Mainly the two on each end cause one has a bird beak but the other is like a fuzzy bird leaning down? Who are they? The others are clearly Julie, Frank and Barnaby but I’m not sure about these two. They show traits like they could be Poppy but also aren’t? 

Drawings and the video clips.

Foremost, I want to point out that in all the audio clips that appear when you click on Wally’s drawings there is text underneath them that transcribes what’s being said. The same for the videos, for anyone that had trouble listening. The main thing I wanted to talk about though is the videos. In every single one, Wally is also present, even if he never talks, and in every single one when the other neighbors go to address him the audio glitches out on Wally’s name. Heck in the labels on those videos two letters are at the end to represent which neighbors are in the clip, but Wally’s is never attached because he is just always there. Silent and listening, doing his own thing. Often overlooked in the conversation until the end of the clip when the others acknowledge him and the audio glitches on his name. I’m not sure why though. This isn’t the first of the audio’s to be glitched or scratched, but it’s always at his name. Also all the clips seem to be from the same day in a way. The last of the 14 clips is a discussion between Barnaby and Home where Barnaby talks about his day and reference back to some of the other clips. This one also sticks out to me because of how it ends. When Barnaby turns to acknowledge Wally like all the others do at the end, he talks about how Wally stopped painting and seems concerned like something happened. Not only is the ending bring more questions, but that also means that if all these were connected Wally was always present whenever anyone talked. My current theory is because this is potentially when Wally gain sentience, like the last episode of Welcome Home. Wally as the main character is always present in the scene, but whenever he is acknowledged his name glitches out. And at the end of the day or in this case the last clip, something is bothering Wally. It’s also interesting to note that the video we see is likely from Wally’s eyes.

Random thing I found scrolling through Clown’s tumblr. Though it is an older art that I found near the early stages of Clown’s project still thought I’d share.

Confused

Apparently Welcome Home had an update of some kind, but I have no idea what it's doing. It's nothing very informative as far as I can tell but that might just be because I don't understand. Scattered across the site are requests but they are things that seem to be about changing components of the site and I don't know how to do that. Has anybody else figured it out?
