''For now since I can't get my theory to publish under the forum thread for theories I will post it here. I'll remove all this once I get it published.

All deeper meaning aside, which it is likely that this game does have a deeper meaning masked by the superficial story. I'm really interested in what the next two episodes of the game will reveal about the story. As far as I can figure out the Grandmother is the girl that was infected with the poisonous green gas. That in the 30s/40s the house was found to be connected to a deep cavern. The story seems reminiscent of a old book that many began to believe was real. And the grandchildren seem like the enemies in it called Deros, short for Detrimental Robots. Contrary to the name these Deros were more like living beings. They are pale and can not see in the way we can. They are insane, ruthless, and vicious. And they were said to take prisoners and convert them into more of their kind. They also plot to one day reveal themselves to the surface and rule it. They are also apt at creating horrible technologies to control others.

Originally I thought the Grandchildren were larva and Grandmother was a insect, and those paintings/pictures hung up of the insect were portraits of her. But the notes near the end(like the one about following the bats that somehow linked to the unnamed girl's affliction and a gas) along with her being shown as a grower mass like a cancer dispelled that notion. Though the next two episodes might still show the grandchildren to be the larva stage of something. I thought ascension was the term they used for the other grandchildren going through a metamorphosis. Though in a way I was correct it turned out walklings were the ones that ascended into the grandchildren. My idea that this transformation has something to do with the gas is supported by the rooms with gas masks that later a note said were where humans and/or walklings were treated. The removal of the eyes and teeth might have a multifold purpose. To keep them blind and less able to fight while also facilitating the ascension. Since likely the eyes and teeth would rot and fall out in the process and be replaced.
