** The Weird Autumn update seems to be this for the theory that [[spoiler:Aunt Molly was part of the cult, as she shows up in the epilogue and presses Mae for what happened a night ago, and seems to legitimately have no clue about the events that passed]]. The same goes for [[spoiler:all four members of the town council, who are angrily debating the salting of roads after the sealing of the Cult]].
** The fanon that all the characters are actually non-furry humans and Mae is just hallucinating them as anthropomorphic animals was quite bluntly debunked by WordOfGod: "it's not a metaphor". %%Lost curiouscat link https://curiouscat.me/bombsfall/post/61877427
** A lot of fans, especially fanfiction writers, thought Casey was the one who wrote the song "Die Anywhere Else", but that has been debunked. %%Lost curiouscat link https://curiouscat.me/bombsfall/post/218021734
