[[WMG: The Candyman will be revealed to not have been a single person but an entity that absorbs their stories into its own]]
* Promotion for the film has featured other possible origins for Candyman, including a man with a false hand who gave out candy to children only to be killed by the police when falsely blamed for razor blades found in apples, another man falsely claimed to be a pedophile, and a man simply in the wrong place at the wrong time. It will be revealed that Candyman wasn't any one of those men but something that absorbs them into his own myth and legend, taking on pieces of them as the story is retold.
[[WMG: The film will end on a downer ending just like the first one]]
*Anthony will die just like Helen and become absorbed into the Candyman myth.

Not necessarily his descendant, but a fairly strong genetic link nonetheless.

!!Pre-Release Theories
[[folder: Anthony]]
[[WMG: Anthony will become the next Candyman]]
* Self-explanatory; Anthony gets stung by a honeybee in the teaser trailer, one of the warning signs that the Candyman is close by. After he was stung, he later wears bandages around his right hand most likely because the wound became infected and was rotting away gradually until Anthony is forced to rip his hand off in the place of the Candyman's signature weapon.
[[WMG: Candyman will do with Anthony the same Freddy did with Jason in ''Film/FreddyVsJason'']]
* Gentrification is a major theme of the sequel. Because of it, Candyman's powers are lessening because he requires belief to keep himself in the physical realm. So, he will take possession of Anthony, likely recognizing him as the boy he tried to sacrifice in the original film, and takes possession of him so he could set him up as the fall guy for his murders.
[[WMG: Anthony will pull a HeroicSacrifice to erase Candyman for good]]
* Realizing that Candyman's legend is what sustains his existence, Anthony manages to resist Candyman possessing him just long enough to destroy his art exhibit and the old candy factory--removing the last physical reminders of the legend and letting himself die in the attempt, taking Candyman with him and eclipsing his legend with a "crazy artist" story.
[[/folder]]
[[WMG: Helen Lyle will appear, with Virginia Madsen doing a RoleReprise for it]]
At the end of the first film she became an Urban Legend like Candyman, and it would be waste not to follow up on it.
* Semi-Confirmed. While Helen Lyle will be returning, [[TheOtherDarrin she will now be played by Cassie Kramer]].
