I only just came across this due to the Peekaboo Collection on Steam. And wow! what an experience this was. Had a lot of fun playing it and is worth the pick up. Keep up the good work! I got to play your other games soon!
So here’s my theory, on the game lore. I think- correct me if i say something incorrect.
The theatre itself is located in another dimension. Either the Unknown. Purgatory or hell. The theatre is possessed so that the protagonist is stuck there in a time loop and is forced to watch the films, coming across demons that are tormenting and attacking the protagonist. I’m assuming the film poems are talking about the protagonist being a fallen angel or something? As she says in the second poem “when were your wings clipped” and “such tired wings” and that she is taunting you about your past, or explaining what you have done wrong to be sent to the Theatre. I am also assuming The Crying Janitor and the Mannequin are the demons That the poem was talking about escaping in the last movie. The ticket master is obviously the protagonist as he is seen sitting in the singular chair that the last auditorium had. And that the game is talking about the protagonist reflecting on his/her choices. The death ticket im thinking is saying that the character is dead and sent to hell (the theatre) I think the Rebirth ticket is talking about a second chance maybe? And that the protagonist is finally free from the torturing loop after the final film and is allowed to Heaven. I’m not sure why the Janitor cries and is seen sitting with you throughout most of the films, my theory is that either it is also a person that has been sent there and being tortured also. Or that it is one of the demons that is torturing you. These are my theory’s so far. i’ve really been thinking about the game for a while. Not sure who the hell the girl is talking the poems, maybe a god or another demon.
anyways thats my theory, please call me out if i said anything wrong. I’d love to know the full explanation of the game.
Hey, thanks for sharing your thoughts, more or less you're on a right path here, I can at least say that a lot of the things aren't really too specific to the theater's universe and the creature isn't a janitor.
Is there a lore or a story towards this game? I have so many questions like- Why is the person in the theatre and what did they do to get there. Who are the creatures thats in the theatre. Is it hell? What on earth is that poem talking about. There are so many stuff i don’t understand about this game. Still brilliant nonetheless 👍

as always, it seems to me that the game is at a -100% discount
No it's at -40% at the moment
