* WasOnceAMan: Benny Rose used to be a normal human but transformed into a horrific cannibalistic monster, most likely after he was trapped under a burned hospital with several children and ate them to prolong his life. It is implied, however, that the thing roaming the neighborhood is more like a “footprint” of that event rather than the transformed body or spirit of the original Benny Rose.

* ResurrectedMurderer: A possible origin for Benny Rose that is given is that he was a sadistic child serial killer in life who eventually became a cannibalistic slasher killer in death. That said emphasis is given on it being a possiblity as the ending implies just as much that Benny may have once genuinely been a normal person before his transformation.
