the boy and the bath

[@lolbutidontlaugh]

I think the saddest part of this video is how real this is. For when the child said, “I never existed to you”, it’s very evident that the parent most likely just left the child in the bath for a moment to attend to other matters. Parents like this, even if it’s just a few, exist, barely caring for their little angels. This is also supported by how it says, “I know you heard me”, implying that the parent cared more about what ever the hell they were doing than their own flesh and blood that was crying out for help. The design is just as horrifying, even if you removed the bathroom for the scene, you can still tell what happened by just looking at the design. ‘Show, not tell’ is always the best storyteller and Doctor Nowhere struck it out the park with this one. This video seriously resonated with me, the feeling of being neglected. While of course, it isn’t to the same degree as this poor kid, the “I never existed to you” was just so impactful to my own personal life, the feeling of not being cared for emotionally is extremely detrimental. Please stay safe people and ALWAYS watch out for your children/brothers and sisters, children RELY on you to keep them safe, this poor angel deserved better.

This is one of my favorite types of horror: the sad type. The boy isn’t there to kill you; he’s only there to make you feel ashamed of yourself for neglecting and leaving him to (supposedly) die in the bathtub. The boy seemed to have wanted to attack, but instead he lectures you in a calm voice. The poor soul deserved better.

​​@@GeometryDashLeonI'd say it's the manifestation of guilt itself and the "boy" isn't actually there Well that's the short answer at least If he is there I'd assume it's a ghost, considering that the entity could talk in sentences but doesn't have the ability to climb, I think it might be a preschooler or toddler (2-3 yrs old) that got drowned in that tub (Well the rest of the explantion are the top comment sayings) but idea here that I want to add here, considering all of that, I don't think they'd hold a grudge or a sense of revenge therefore I don't think they'd attack whatsoever

Theory - A mother (or father) left their baby in the bath and either out neglect or a desire to be rid of the child, let them drown and now the ghost of the baby is haunting them.

What if the entity is guilt itself. Like trauma. Maybe that's why the person couldn't sleep?

[@BlackMesaNewMexico]

[@YourLocalEldritchHorror]

A good theory It could also explain why they said "But it wasn't my fault" before entering the bathroom They are trying to ignore the guilt that they would get from seeing the bathroom

[@cyz3566]

What if... the longer the parent refuses to acknowledge their sin, the more monstrous and gangly this ghost becomes, until it became what we see here?

[@vebz_6872]

Good theory, mine had slightly more to it: I thought that the "but it wasn't my fault" part combined with the shower slowly dripping pure white liquid, could've been related to SA. Maybe that's why the mother killed the child, unless it was on accident like you suggest. But that's just what I got from it

Theory time: This is about a parent who accidentally drowned their baby. “your body remains unclean from the toils of yesterday” is talking about how the parent feels dirty/unholy for what they have done. “A shower will make you better” is the parent’s conscious telling them to revisit where it happened, so they go to revisit the bathroom to try and find closure. The being/boy that they find is the grief as a character. The being (who I will refer to as “the boy”) haunts the parent for what they have done, pushing all the blame on them. The parent closing the bathroom door is a metaphor for the parent pushing the grief out as a coping mechanism, and the boy reappearing in the room is the grief following them, no matter what they do.

my guess is that the person we see the pov of had to (or was forced into) having a child. because of how unhappy she was, she gave herself an ab0rtion in the bathtub, which is why it says "your body remains unclean from the tools of yesterday". she feels incredible guilt from this. this also explains why it says, "I never existed to you". she feels like if she maybe defended herself more, then it wouldn't have happened. if she had just said no, this wouldn't have happened. her parents wanted her to keep it, which is why there's a crib in the beginning and end.

This hits me on a new level. The boy is obviously mad and resentful for being neglected and left to die but in a way.. he seems sad not just because he died but because his parent is clearly remorseful and guilty about what they did,i can relate to that on a personal level. That feeling of guilt, sadness and regret of being mad at your caretaker and yelling at them only for that anger to turn into sadness as you see them show guilt and remorse. Seeing a parent cry or be sad is the saddest things a child can go through. No matter how much resent or hate you may feel for them, in the end they are your family, your blood and you can never really bring yourself to hate them fully.

[@EggieAnimates]

Glad to revisit Doctor Nowhere's office! "I never existed to you" was more heartbreaking than it should've been. This monster doesn't even feel scary, just .. Pitiful. I think this film gets the jist of what guilt feels like to me, a haunting presence that refuses to leave me alone. I salute you for that 🫡 Edit because I have a short theory: Everyone here is saying that this video is about a mother who is dealing with the guilt of killing/letting her child drown in the bathroom. But with the title "the boy and the bath", I like to think it was actually the child's older brother, which makes this a little more saddening. I also noticed that the top of this entity's head is cut clean off, perhaps this has some sort of symbolism to it? Maybe about a 'brainless decision' as someone else put it.

[@Rainbowsyoungersister]

That’s actually a good theory.

[@Rico-ei3zt]

I really like that theory. The phrase "I never existed to you" while applying to how a neglectful parent may see a child can also very well apply to an older sibling as well, especially a younger one that doesn't yet really comprehend what it means to be an older sibling. Maybe the brother had a new baby brother/sister and like many older kids, they were getting adjusted to the new baby being around. Maybe they didn't really like them being around and chose to ignore them most of the time. Maybe there came a time where the parents had to do something or leave and so had the older brother watch their sibling. They instructed him to give the baby a bath while they were gone. The older sibling, maybe not fully realizing how dangerous it is to leave a baby alone in the tub left them in the tub alone. Maybe it was just supposed to be for a minute. Maybe the brother just wanted a snack or to grab their phone, not realizing that in just one minute everything can go to Hell with leaving a baby unattended in the bathtub. With the phrase "I know you heard me." I can imagine the brother hearing the baby splashing or crying as they grabbed whatever it is they needed, but the brother ignored them thinking that the baby was just being fussy and not realizing until too late that something was wrong.

This video really resonated with me, growing up one of the punishments I got when I did not do well on tests involved my parent groping me while washing me in the shower. I don’t know what inspired this video but something about the character of the boy in the bath just perfectly encapsulates that feeling of guilt that haunts you after standing up for yourself against someone who the rest of the world says only wishes you well. What they’re saying makes you guilty and remorseful, but you can’t shake the feeling that something is terribly wrong and you have no idea why they’re so terrifying even though they’re meant to be the good guy. Whenever I’d protest against punishments my words were always used against me and ultimately I was taught that protesting meant I was betraying and abandoning the person who cares about me the most, and I feel like this video managed to portray that confusing feeling of not knowing if you’re the one hurting a person or if you’re the one being hurt by them in a very creative way

Another thing is that the boy is mentally evolved, and newborns aren't that smart, and even if he was an extremely smart newborn, why would he be blaming his mother then? And if she really miscarried there, how did she leave her child to drown?? So many holes in this comment.

[@Ash_404_He-They]

I may not personally agree with this theory as a whole (I have my own theory on this, but let’s see if I can help bring some perspective into this. “No what the hell how did she reach her hand into her mouth to grab her baby out and give it a bath seeing it was dirty?? And how was it dirty in the first place??” I don’t understand what you’re saying here? It’s never explicitly stated that the child was the one having the bath, and the child’s age is never specified in the video. “It also says "the boy and the bath", not "the miscarriage and the bath".” Okay, but you are claiming that this video is about the mother murdering the child. With this logic, the title isn’t “the murder and the boy”, so this theory is ruled out too. See what I mean? That’s kind of a dumb argument to make, and the title was likely kept vague on purpose. “Another thing is that the boy is mentally evolved, and newborns aren't that smart, and even if he was an extremely smart newborn, why would he be blaming his mother then?” The monster we see here in the video could be symbolic, not literal. It could be a metaphor for the guilt the mother feels, not a literal spirit of her unborn fetus. “And if she really miscarried there, how did she leave her child to drown??” If she miscarried, then the child wouldn’t have drowned, but rather died in the womb. Her leaving the child to drown isn’t directly specified either. If you are referring to the line “I know you heard me” in regards to a child crying for help when drowning, then that is a fair argument. However, a counter argument of a different interpretation of the line could show how it rather conveys the fact that the guilt will never go away, and how the mother blaming herself can never fully get rid of the guilt, no matter how hard she tries to “shut it out” (symbolized by shutting the door on the spirit). Hope this helps clarify some stuff! :) (And yeah I know that this is an old comment but idc so here)
