Unpacking the Wildest ‘Wednesday’ Theories: Stalkers, Body Swaps & a Game-Changing Family Twist

In the shadowy halls of Nevermore Academy, a web of secrets and mysteries thickens with every episode of Wednesday season 2. From invisible stalkers lurking behind cryptic pranks to strange women hidden away in sinister institutions, fans are piecing together fragments of a dark puzzle full of unexpected alliances and eerie family legacies. Whispers about body-swapping survival tactics and manipulating the supernatural underbelly mingle with questions about who truly holds the power over monstrous forces.

Amidst murmurs of hidden identities and cryptic motives, the line between friend and foe blurs, leaving everyone wondering: what dark truths are yet to surface in this gothic tale? The theories speak.

Agnes the Stalker

One of the central mysteries carried over from Season 1 was the identity of the person stalking Wednesday. Agnes has been revealed as the stalker, but many fans speculate that she is not the mastermind. Agnes DeMille is introduced in Wednesday’s season 2 as Wednesday’s obsessive fan and stalker, using her invisibility powers to orchestrate dangerous pranks in an attempt to impress her idol. Many fans find it suspicious that Agnes joins Nevermore in season 2, though Wednesday was stalked from the end of season 1, suggesting another culprit was present earlier.

Agnes’s role is played by Evie Templeton, whose natural hair color is blonde, which is changed to copper or bright red, changing to a shade resembling Marilyn Thornhill’s red hair from season 1, sparking theories that Agnes could be Thornhill’s secret daughter. However, there is no direct confirmation of their relationship in the show; this remains a fan speculation.

The rescued woman’s origins may be linked to the same long-buried conspiracy.

Who is the woman Wednesday rescued?

Ophelia, Morticia’s sister, shares psychic abilities similar to Wednesday’s and has been missing for 20 years. She was sent to Willow Hill Psychiatric Hospital after pushing her powers too far, causing black tears like Wednesday’s. Morticia and her mother, Hester, have a strained relationship due to Ophelia’s disappearance. It is revealed that Morticia once asked Uncle Fester to rescue Ophelia from Willow Hill, but she vanished mysteriously. The show hints Ophelia might have been kept captive as part of the LOIS experiments at Willow Hill, and the woman Wednesday finds there, physically isolated, non-violent, and not matching other inmates’ behavior, likely is Ophelia.

Supporting Tyler’s mother’s theory further, in season 2, when the woman sees Hyde is coming, she abruptly walks out, visibly unsettled and purposeful. This reaction could suggest recognition, possibly realizing that the Hyde approaching is her son, Tyler. Such a moment aligns perfectly with the idea that Francoise’s death was faked as part of the LOIS experiments, and that her long isolation is connected to the hospital’s exploitation of dangerous outcasts.

What will happen to Wednesday in part 2?

Wednesday–Enid body swap theory

The swap might happen deliberately to save Wednesday, who is lying in a hospital bed after being injured during the investigation. Knowing Wednesday is vulnerable and targeted, Enid agrees to switch bodies, whether through magic, psychic power, or LOIS technology, so she can pose as Wednesday and lure the attacker away, while Wednesday (in Enid’s body) secretly continues the mission. This risky move would protect Wednesday from further harm while allowing them to use the enemy’s confusion to their advantage, turning the situation into both a rescue and a trap.

Does Tyler still feel for Wednesday?

Tyler’s Feelings for Wednesday

Tyler’s feelings for Wednesday are deeply conflicted and central to both characters’ development throughout the series. Some viewers believe Tyler’s affections were genuine, as he held back from seriously harming those close to Wednesday. Tyler was driven by vengeance linked to his mother’s tragic fate as a Hyde. Tyler was manipulated by Marilyn Thornhill, who exploited his rage toward Nevermore and the Addams family, leading him to play with Wednesday’s feelings.

In season 2, after Tyler is institutionalized at Willow Hill, Wednesday confronts him. Their conversation is loaded with past promises and emotional history. Tyler’s message that some people do not keep promises hints at regret and unresolved feelings, but also underlines how his anger has only grown. When they are in each other’s presence, Wednesday’s typical composure falters, and Tyler, even with his Hyde impulses unleashed, hesitates to hurt her at first. Fans still doubt whether he was the one who threw Wednesday out the window or not.

What is the new connection between Tyler and Wednesday?

Is Wednesday Hyde’s New Master?

A popular theory among fans is that Tyler will have a redemption arc. Given the complexity of his character in the first season and the reveal of him as Hyde, fans speculate that Wednesday will become his new Hyde master. This twist would allow her to control his monstrous abilities and use them for good, ultimately leading to Tyler’s reintegration into the group.

Is the new principal at Nevermore Academy hiding a darker agenda behind his strict?

Principal’s control over Siren

Principal Dort, introduced in season 2 of Wednesday, exerts significant control over Bianca Barclay, a student siren at Nevermore Academy. Dort blackmails Bianca by threatening her scholarship, coercing her to use her siren powers for school and personal gain, specifically, to influence Morticia Addams and secure financial support for Nevermore. This willingness to leverage supernatural abilities for manipulation hints at a larger, potentially sinister agenda within the school’s leadership. Unlike former principal Larissa Weems, who advocated for cooperation between Normies and outcasts, Dort is a traditionalist prioritizing outcast supremacy.

Who is the zombie named Slurp in Wednesday season 2?

The Zombie theory

Ally or Foe: The zombie character is a new element in the series, and fans are divided on its role. Some believe the zombie is an ally and will assist Wednesday in her investigations, possibly having a connection to Nevermore Academy’s past. Others speculate the zombie is the new villain or a minion of a more significant threat, a supernatural entity unleashed from the new LOIS Project. Connection to the Addams Family: Another theory is that the zombie has a connection to the Addams family. With the show exploring more of the family’s lore in the upcoming seasons, the zombie could be a long-lost ancestor or a creature from the Addams family’s past.

If the zombie truly has ties to the Addams family, then Isadora Capri may be the key to unlocking or exploiting that connection. 

This music teacher is fishy

Isadora Capri, the new music teacher at Nevermore Academy in Wednesday season 2, is portrayed as a sharp and somewhat controlling character with a mysterious past. She is a werewolf herself and serves as a mentor to Enid Sinclair, also a werewolf. However, Capri’s behavior comes off as manipulative and secretive. She may be using her music skills to exert influence not just over students but also over supernatural elements like the zombie and the Hyde. For example, her involvement with the inmates at Willow Hill, where she performs music, suggests a hidden connection to the sinister experiments ongoing there. wait for part 2 to get all the answers.
