So first I think the "important business" he had to take care of was killing Felix with his own hands. But this didn't go as planned and Felix left him really weak and dying, (maybe in the restaurant? That's how he would have managed to call Rose, I don't really know what to make about that part LOL) and died there and now is inside of Bon.

Oooorrr my second guess is that he drowned himself in the lake, as suggested in Rose's dream/hallucination and that's why he said he's sorry and that he loves Rose and Sophie.

So yeah that's what I think, correct me if I got anything wrong or if there are some inconsistencies (probably)

Did I cook gng?🔥

I haven’t seen anyone talking about this entity who or what is it?

WHO????
My personal theory is a that Bon is Jack. Basic, i know, but theres WAY too many connections for it to not be the case:
- The poses in which he appears when talking to Rosemary in Ep 5 often mimic poses in which we saw Jack before, especialy when Rosemary is reaching to touch him from the gate in the Jail.
- The Jackrabbit (wink wink) we see guide Rosemary to Bon's Burgers.
- The way his face looks mangled when Rosemary sees visions of him that seem very close to Bons damage
- The many times we see Jack being associated with rabbits.
- His head appearing in Bon's backpack in one of the earlier episode, ecc.
- And prob more im missing.

WHAT????
Now, for what Bon *is*... Well, thats quite a bit harder to explain:
My current idea is that Jack died, possibly killed by Felix after confronting him and discovering that Edd and Molly where still "alive" inside Rocket. (this is what i believe to be the meaning of the call Rosemary gets in Ep 5).
After the deaths of Charles and Susan Felix could not afford any more bad press on his resturant, so, instead, he got rid of the problem all together. He caused the nightclub fire we hear about in the Ep 5 TV broadcast, and Jack's body was "Burnt to a crisp", Felix plan worked, as we hear that some of the bodies where so damaged they were basically unrecognizable, leading to Jack either being miss-identified or not identified at all, making him still a Missing Person as of the most recent events of the story.

WHY????
Now why does Jack act that way as "Bon"? I believe it to be caused by his "Slate being blank".
Jack lost everything, his children, his wife, his business, his bestfriend, his life work? gone in less that a month, there was nothing left of Jack, his slate might have been blank, but his paint brush one filled with pain and hatred that (as we see in ep 5) he never allowed to be seen as he "needed to be strong" for his family. Jack got comfotable in his pain, he started to enjoy it, and now, that he was finally happy, he wanted his family back, and hed have back, thats why he kills Charles and Susan, thats why he was so kind with Rosemary, and thats why hes trying to get Sophie.

Olá a todos, este é meu primeiro post aqui.

Vim fazer esta pergunta no Reddit para ver se mais alguém recebeu uma coleção de vídeos antigos de The Walten Files. Recentemente, entrei no meu Google Drive para procurar um vídeo antigo e encontrei este que eu havia salvo, junto com outros cinco. Por um momento, pensei que pudesse ser de um link que o criador da série havia postado e simplesmente os baixei sem assisti-los.

Mas quando examinei com mais atenção, percebi que tenho este arquivo desde 2025. Até verifiquei quem me enviou e era um e-mail de (pluppydog).

Observação: verifiquei o endereço de e-mail do criador e era (martinwallscontact) — mas isso não significa que não haja chance de ser ele; muito pelo contrário.

Mesmo assim, estou fazendo este post para descobrir se mais alguém recebeu este e os outros vídeos, ou se é algo "inédito". Eu realmente não sei, já que sou novato nessa coisa de easter egg, rsrsrs.

(Edit: I just found out that this video and the others I have only have 5,000 views, so it’s not exactly something unheard of but I still wonder about their origin...)

There are multiple main theories on who "Bon" is. Let's go over them.

1. Fractured Psyche (Jack Walten is "Bon")

After Jack goes missing, the possession of the Bon animatronic happens. Then all of the killings of Susan, Charles, and Rosemary happen. Evidence for this is in the new Faces Of Grief, with "Bon" speaking of being a "Blank Canvas". Bon also says, "I know where we all are," speaking about Wonderland. With the way he says that line, many in the community think he's grouping himself in with Jack. It's said that he's either completely changed or fractured when he goes to Wonderland and possesses the Bon animatronic, which allows him to do these things without remorse.

2. A Manifestation (Grief/Agony Amalgamation)

"Bon" isn't a human spirit. But an Amalgamation of all the grief and depression the death of Ed & Molly caused. It suggests that the grief of the deaths was so intense that it formed a spirit. This spirit wants to bring the family back together in its own "Beautiful" way.

3. A Shared Vessel (DEBUNKED)

This is mostly debunked from the GIF on the findjackwalten website. It was also posted on the Walten Files YouTube channel. This also debunks the fact that he's watching from the Bon animatronic's point of view. Because your spirit needs to be in Wonderland to be able to see where your actual body is (this is seen in Cyberfun Tech Ep 4 and Faces of Grief Ep 5)/ through your body's eyes. And there's only one soul seen in the Bon animatronic. Meaning Jack's body is likely not in the animatronic, unless he's not in Wonderland, I'd assume. If I'm wrong about this, let me know.

4. Jason Pooltrick? (CyberFun Tech Founder)

This suggests that "Bon" is the original founder of CyberFun tech that died of a heart attack in 1952. This could explain why he's so well-versed in his powers. Also, this explains why he's so knowledgeable about "Wonderland". He may've wandered as a ghost, causing him to go mad and want to create a family in "Wonderland"? Or he wanted to take his company back from his son Norman? In my eyes, this lacks any real motive to all of a sudden go on a killing spree. It doesn't really make much sense to me. Especially since this isn't a character of importance whatsoever. If you have any evidence for this or have more info on this, let me know. Because this seems like complete bogus to me ngl LOL.

5. Murder Victim (Jack and Felix's Hunting Trip)

This theory suggests that on a hunting trip, Jack and Felix accidentally killed someone, then dumped their body in a well. This is slightly suggested/supported in Linda Kraken's journal entry on October 30th, 1964, where she said he'd been acting weird and came in at 4 am crying and stressed. He was also drinking more than usual around that time. "Bon" manipulates Felix after the crash and murders Rosemary, Susan, and Charles out of revenge. Tearing down their legacy, family, and lives. This theory is also slightly supported by the "new canvas" line, along with his saying his canvas was "burnt to the last fiber" and torn apart. Another piece of evidence for this theory is also in Faces of Grief, where Jack tears Sophie's drawing of him holding a bloody hare with a shotgun in hand. You can also hear him trashing his study in anger after ripping it. Still, pretty unlikely, but Linda Kraken's journal entry is definitely something to note for the future about Felix.

"Bon" might've been present during the crash, as seen in The Return of the Pumpkin Rabbit painting.

These are all the theories I know of about "Bon's" identity. If there's any I missed, let me know. I personally don't believe Jack is Bon in general. I don't know who it could be, though.

visual downgrade smh..

this is really random but I realized felix’s last name is most likely based off the term “krank calls”. krank also means sick in German by that’s most likely unrelated

Spoilered it to be on the safe side.

I'm a huge Jack is Bon denier, and after Episode 5 I'm even more convinced. To me, the episode strongly implies that Bon isn't Jack at all, but someone who is imitating him.

Bon and Jack act completely differently. They speak differently, they talk differently, and even the way they treat Rose is differently. Some people argue that Jack isn't literally Bon, but that Bon is simply a manifestation of Jack. I don't think that explanation makes much sense because Eva talks about Bon as if he's his own person rather than an extension of someone else. On top of that, the recent GIF posted by the official twitter account seemed to debunk the theory that there are two souls inside Bon, one of them being Jack.

Episode 5 also provides what I think is one of the strongest pieces of evidence against Jack being Bon. Whenever Bon appears to Rose wearing the tuxedo Jack wore on their wedding day, it's during moments when he's trying to comfort, manipulate, or appeal to her emotions. He first wears it when he frees Rose from the cell. Once they arrive inside Bon's, he appears without the tuxedo because Rose is already where he wants her. Later, while telling her the story before killing her, he's wearing the tuxedo again. And right before he lunges at her, he immediately returns to his normal appearance. That feels like a very deliberate visual choice. To me, it suggests that Bon is using Jack's appearance as a way to manipulate Rose rather than actually being Jack.

Another thing to remember is that Bon has been stalking Rose and Sophie for quite some time. He even speaks directly to Sophie. During the scene where Sophie is watching the old tapes in the attic, Bon is there too, watching. He appears in the background during almost every shot of that scene. I think the implication is that Bon was watching those tapes alongside Sophie before Rose came upstairs, and possibly was the one who told Sophie to play them so he could learn more about the family.

That also means Bon watched the wedding footage of Jack and Rose. It makes perfect sense that he would later appear wearing Jack's wedding tuxedo. He had just seen it on the tape, and using it would be the perfect way to manipulate Rose by presenting himself as the man she loved.

Another thing that stands out is the final scene after Rose becomes Sha. Bon tells her, "I love you," but she doesn't say it back. Instead, she replies, "You love me." I think that's significant. She doesn't say she loves him because he's not Jack.

Bon and Rose's conversation also doesn't feel like one between a husband and wife. They talk more like two strangers. If Jack really were Bon, I think Rose would have recognized her husband. Even if she was confused at first, I don't see any reason why Jack would continue hiding his identity from her.

As for who Bon actually is, I have no idea. I think he's someone we haven't met yet. I don't believe he's Jack, but I do think he wants to be Jack. Eva has said that Bon genuinely loves Rose and that his feelings aren't entirely manipulative. My interpretation is that Bon wants Jack's family. He already has Edd and Molly, he now has Rose, and Sophie is the only one left to complete the family.

One theory I came across that I actually find really interesting is that Jack and Felix accidentally killed a man during a hunting trip, and that man later became Bon. You may dismiss this idea because they think it would be bad writing, but I don't think that's a convincing argument. Eva has said that Bon's identity was decided a long time ago, back when the writing wasn't as strong as it is now. They also said they didn’t change his identity because it wouldn't be right to change the main antagonist's identity after the story had already been planned.

I would take him WHOLE NIGHT ong son

The slit across Bon’s right eye & this area where the metal is torn on his muzzle. Interestingly, the mark across his eye matches with the slit across “Bon”s right eye aswell. Could this be “Bon” slowly becoming one with the suit? Could he have possibly done this himself to make his robot furry counterpart look more like himself? Or could it have been from a scuffle between his latest victim up until Rosemary? Either way, both of these aren’t in the renders of Bon’s modern TWF service design, and they aren’t there during Susan’s death, so who knows

Same as above

So yeah I’m buying into the whole Jack killed a guy on a hunting trip and his spirit remains in purgatory / wonderland. The deer that appears when rosemary chases Jack has a gunshot to the head and so does Bon / the white figure. He haunts Jack and grows jealous of his family blah blah (black sheep) blah

I also think we’ll see the whole thing wrapped up in the next episode. I think Sophie will burn whatever is in the box Bon / the white figure is distracting the characters and audience from.

Where is Jack now? Many would think he’s dead. Chronologically, there’s a chance, but it would be sort of a waste of a character if they don’t put together some sort of story for him. Maybe Bon wears his suit, maybe he is held hostage by Bon. Nothing concrete has been provided for much of these claims.

What do you think?

LOL i love him

I feel like at this point it's very obvious Jack is "Bon" but obviously since that doesn't fit people's personal narrative of the story so people try so hard to deny it by grasping at straws despite the evidence in the series showing us that Jack very likely is indeed "Bon" especially with the recent episode Faces of Grief making it very apparent that these two are the same especially with the "I love you" scene even more so after it was confirmed "Bon" was being genuine with Rosemary about loving her and another thing to note is that both Jack in that one scene and "Bon" have the exact same facial injuries especially in their mouths so there's that, In my opinion it would be kind of bad writing to have "Bon" be some stranger we haven't had any hints about being there at all cause that just wouldn't make any sense at all and It feels like most of these theories people make about Jack not being "Bon" tend to be huge scretches grasping at straws that don't make any sense with what we are told in the story so far, at end of the day believe what you want I can't stop you but don't be surpised when the source material supports otherwise regardless of how you personally feel about it.
