First, she eats bread, then she preys upon the few that have been the most compassionate to her. Little Nightmares portrays this as a form of hunger that becomes more destructive as the game develops.
A child that loses her innocence too soon can often become the monster that had once devoured them. Little Nightmares might well be an allegory of child abuse. A creepy janitor walking around, the ominous chefs serving up dubious food, and the flood of guests that come and go, devouring what’s left of the child’s hope. The reality of an orphanage is a daunting prospect. The guests are a manifestation of a child’s mind. When confronted with the hanging man soon after leaving the suitcase, the reality of the death of her family and into a new chaos seemed to flow instantaneously. Days, weeks, months, and even years can meld into one small reality almost harmoniously. Strangely, the Maw could represent the newest abruption to her life, a possible orphanage. The foundations of her family have never settled, as a result, she’s metaphorically moving around a lot. The association of beginning within a suitcase denotes an unsettled life. This game might just be a metaphor for something much more real than could have been expected. The real complications of a nightmare happen at the beginning, notably with Six waking up in a suitcase.

A series of nightmares that might lead to a Seven devouring Six. This leads to the commendable idea that the Lady is Five, the one before Six. Whilst supporting the mother theory, it can also be considered too much of a reality to be a ‘little nightmare.’ There’s also another intriguing painting which has the Lady and four shadow women beside her. A curious clue comes in the form of a picture of Six in the Lady’s Quarters, suggesting a previous relationship between the two.
The Maw has many hidden clues surrounding Six and the Lady sporadically, yet cautiously, placed across its many different areas. The fan theory that has often arisen is the identity of the Lady being the mother of Six, an applaudable theory by all recognition, but maybe purposely too obvious. Notably, when Six defeats the Lady at the end and, to much bewilderment, devours her (the game was originally called ‘Hunger’ and it’s a theme that sneaks through the foundation of the story). After completing the game, many fans had their own ideas. The books will provide more information in regards to the background story of Little Nightmares, as well as answer some questions, in addition to probably raising more questions. Titan Comics is currently releasing comics based on the game. However, other than just another horror game, there’s a twisted meaning hidden on board the Maw. With its Tim Burton inspired graphics and eery silence obscuring premonition before it’s too late, Little Nightmares has audaciously opened the door to our childhood terrors. Tarsier Studios have produced one of the most memorable horror games in recent years when they released Little Nightmares last month.
