TheTwisted Childhood Universecontinues to expand, and as it continues to add more children’s characters with a horror twist to bring them all together in a crossover event, a new character has been teased to join – and thanks to that, a wild theory about them can come true but with a key twist. The 2023 horror movieWinnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honeyboosted a trend in horror of making horror versions of children’s characters and stories. Despite being a critical failure,Blood and Honeymade way for a sequel and started a shared universe called Twisted Childhood Universe.
The point of theTwisted Childhood Universeis to bring more horror versions of children’s characters, with each movie leading up to a crossover event titledPoohniverse: Monsters Assemble. So far, the characters confirmed to appear inPoohniverseare Winnie-the-Pooh and his friends, Bambi, Peter Pan, Tinker Bell, Hook, Pinocchio, The Cricket, Rabbit, Sleeping Beauty, and the Mad Hatter. Now, anew character has been teased to join the Twisted Childhood Universe, and thanks to this, their wildest theory can come true, but with a key change.
Mary Poppins Will Join Blood & Honey’s Monster Crossover
The One-Of-A-Kind Nanny Is Joining The Twisted Childhood Universe
The Twisted Childhood Universe is currently preparing for the release ofPeter Pan’s Neverland Nightmare, written and directed by Scott Jeffrey and produced by him and Rhys Frake-Waterfield, director ofBlood and Honeyand creator of this universe. Speaking toJoBlo, Jeffrey and Frake-Waterfield shared somedetails aboutPoohniverseand what to expect from it, with Frake-Waterfield calling it “complete carnage.” Jeffrey revealed thatMary Poppins will be added to the fun and chaos ofPoohniverse, and she’s “gonna be a nightmare.”
Scott Chambers, also known as Scott Jeffrey, played Christopher Robin inWinnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey 2.
Mary Poppins entered the public domain in 2022, so Jeffrey’s idea for the character inPoohniverseis absolutely possible. Mary Poppins was created by author P. L. Travers for the series of novels starring her. Mary Poppins is a magical English nanny who blows in on the east wind and arrives at the home of the Banks family. Poppins is hired as the new nanny for the Banks children, whom she teaches valuable lessons through fantastic experiences brought to life by her unique magic. Mary Poppins became more popular after Disney’s 1964 film adaptation, in which she was played by Julie Andrews.
Mary Poppins’ Stephen King Theory Can Come True In Poohniverse With A Twist
Mary Poppins & Pennywise Might Have Something In Common Without Being Related
Mary Poppins isn’t a horror character, yet she was linked to one of the most terrifying Stephen King characters in one wild theory. According to it,Mary Poppins and It are from the same species, but with a huge difference. It is a shapeshifting entity whose real form is hard to describe, as any human who sees it either dies or becomes insane. The closest to it that the human mind can comprehend is a giant spider, though its true form has also been described as an endless, crawling, hairy creature made of orange light.
What Does Pennywise Really Look Like In IT?
IT’s preferred form is that of Pennywise the Dancing Clown, but the true form of this shapeshifting entity is much more complex than that.
It feeds off of the fear of its targets, and its preferred ones are children, as their fears are simpler than those of adults. It takes the shape of its target’s biggest fears to terrorize them, kill them, and feed. Now, Mary Poppins doesn’t shapeshift (or not that we know, at least) and she doesn’t kill children, but she might need them to feed, too. Instead of scaring children and feeding from that,Poppins brings them joy and that’s where she gets her strength and power from. Mary Poppins in the Twisted Childhood Universe can make this theory come true but with a needed twist.
This Mary Poppins might not bring joy to kids and, instead, lure them with her magic to take their life force.
First off,Mary Poppins can’t be of the same species as It due to the rights of the latterand King’s universe, but she can be made into a creature with that same concept. This Mary Poppins might not bring joy to kids and, instead, lure them with her magic to take their life force and strengthen herself, thus giving her a true horror twist.
How Mary Poppins Can Fit Poohniverse’s Monster Crossover
Mary Poppins Is An Unlikely But Interesting Addition To The Twisted Childhood Universe
Although Mary Poppins has been depicted as a benevolent character,many viewers have pointed out for decades the not-so-nice sides of the famous nannyand how her story could have easily been a horror one. Mary Poppins has been theorized to drug the children she looks after, thus why they are so convinced they have gone through fantastic adventures, such as entering a painting; Poppins has been said to be an evil witch who messes with kids and sedates them; and some believe she was a spy and assassin.
These can give some horror inspiration to the team behindPoohniverse, and there are many other ways in which the always magical Mary Poppins can be turned into a horror nightmare.Mary Poppins’ biggest advantage is her use of magic, which can bring to life some horrific scenarios for the family she works for and for viewers. Mary Poppins might seem like a strange addition to theTwisted Childhood Universe, but there’s a lot about her that can be reworked to fit this one-of-a-kind universe.
