Welcome to the It Lives (series) theory page. This is a place where you can discuss confirmed, debunked, and unconfirmed theories about the It Lives series.

Unconfirmed Theories

 * Sequel Title: A popular theory is that the title of the next book in the series will be called It Lives In the Lake.
 * New group of Protagonists: Depending on who survived 'Are you scared?", Jane, Izzy, and Shannon are introduced as new characters who fans believe will be the protagonists of the sequel, while the original group act as their mentors on fighting the Supernatural.
 * Cult- In a new ad for the sequel, there is a person in the background wearing a hooded cloak with a symbol. This has led fans to believe that antagonists in the sequel will be cultists who worship the entity.

Confirmed Theories

 * Noah secretly being a villain: Some fans noted that Noah seemed to act suspicious in several chapters and seemed too eager to have confrontations with Redfield. It was later revealed he intended to sacrifice either one of his friends or himself to take Jane's place as "The Monster". His stated hope at the beginning of chapter 15 is that he will be the one who takes Jane's place. Despite this, if his nerve is too low, he might end up killing the MC while under the control of his sister.

Debunked Theories

 * Cid Is Mr. Red: For a while the theory that Cid was Mr. Red was floated around, but this was disproven when the actual identity of Mr. Red was revealed.
 * Britney and Jocelyn would die: Some fans believed that Britney and Jocelyn would be Redfield/Jane's next victims after Cody given that they also bullied and harassed the protagonists on several occasions. This was disproven since they both survived Redfield's attacks.
 * Jane was alive: A plenty of fans thinks that Jane dying was an illusion but she was alive. However it was disproven as she's Redfield herself.
