When I was reading my book, I was looking back at what Alice was saying when we went on a “date” with her. One of her lines was, “I will not let the demon touch me again.” My theory is at first we all thought she was talking about Bendy. If you really think about it, Joey was the one who turned her into her real life character Alice. So I believe she’s talking about Joey, saying for the demon (Joey) to never touch her again. (This is my quick answer, my usual one is much longer and detailed) :))
It’s kinda great they have the employee handbook cause it looks over the time jump from Henry leaves and the letter he gets 30 years later and thanks for showing this indie darling love. P.S love the channel and the horror content.
In that case: Henry and Joey would be around 40 years old by the time Joey Drew Studios opened, making Henry 70 by the time BATIM takes place 30 years after Henry leaves.70 seems a bit too old for Henry to be able to run at a consistently fast pace, be able to fight ink monsters, and able to withstand several direct hits. I would say the 50s to 60s is better, but who knows? He might've been a really fit 70-year-old. I actually do like your theory as it fits with the idea of Joey and Henry meeting during World War 1, as they would be around their early 20s by then, the age where most men joined to fight.
@@dannyanderson6677 I think that Henry became an inky creature after returning to the studio. Wich is why he doesn't seem so old. Sammy in Chapter 5 refers to Henry as he's talking to Bendy. I think Henry is the good version of Bendy.
@@Bolshevik_1946 But how would that happen? Also, Sammy somewhat recongnised Henry's face, and also, he was going to sacrifice Henry to Bendy.Why would Sammy do that if he sees Henry as Bendy
UniqueSKD One thing that’s great about Bendy: IT TELLS YOU THINGS! You know what happened if you pay attention to the game and books, but with other indie horror games? *NOOOOOOOO* FNAF HAS ITS STORY BURIED UNDER A ROCK IN A SAFE IN A CHEST IN THE PENTAGON!
So in other news, it seems to be that Joey got away with everything, besides the studio going bankrupt. Typical Joey planning. Also, I think this game has the best story I've ever heard in a horror game.
Minespatch it wasn’t Meatly who did it it was Mike Mood and he was known to have a quite a few backlashes while working for Kindly Beast and there was nothing Meatly could do about it since he signed his game off to Roosterteeth when they made the console version
So Joey Drew Studios was founded in 1929 during the Great Depression in America. and went through the 1930's, then through World War II years and then finally closed its doors in the beginning years of the Cold War. that's actually pretty interesting if you think about it, because of the years it takes place in.
Sayumi Batata I mean everyone Henry ends the story, he repeats the same events that happened before, and he has been doing the same for 114 times, so to me, it feels more like a time loop rather than different phases. 🤔
When we look back at Joey Drew and his ‘soulless’ Bendy, it seems like he can’t really fit into the image of being child friendly. It was pretty strange that Joey had a a lot of skills in drawing and it was possible that he could have done a big portion of the planning or the concepts of the company’s animations. He had big ideas but he doubted himself from doing the ideas as he thought that his execution was disturbing and considered Henry’s skills as perfection, which did reflect the ‘soulless’ Bendy we constantly encountered in the game. He trapped his skills within himself when he established his company, until 30 years passed by and he finally decided to unleash what was inside of him; he drew a story, the monsters, and recreated the folk at the studio as miserable monsters. As his true face of his work unfolded, so did his ‘soulless’ Bendy that he abandoned so many years ago. Finally, he turned the abandoned studio of unspeakable horrors into imagination. From then on, he finally felt satisfied with his work and he could proudly say, “he did it all by himself.”
Seeing a lot of the studio's history in more detail like this helps makes what Joeyd did to people around him feel more despicable if he wasn't already so. Makes me curious on how the enxt bok and game will expand more on the lore.
So, the Bendy cartoons were around for more than 30 yrs, but Bendy only had a physical form for about 18 yrs by the time Henry shows up. Technically, Bendy is a teenager. That would explain why he acts the way he does.
That really does help clear things up for the timeline. Henry stuck around a lot longer than I thought he did, and you can really see the downward fall this studio took. Thanks for taking the time to put this together, man. I’m definitely looking for a way to get my mits on that guidebook lol.
I thought Thomas and Alison weren't the ink creatures in chapter 5 because they are just pure ink and don't contain a soul. So Joey couldn't get them back to the studio.
I agree, especially because Allison Angel in Ch. 5 states she doesn't remember anything before the Ink Machine popped her out, *even though* we know Susie Angel remembers her life before she joined the studio (i.e. who Henry is, her own name, being replaced as Alice Angel's VA, etc). So why wouldn't Allison Angel remember her life yet Susie does? The answer is that she's a soulless ink creature while Susie Angel actually does have a soul (obviously not a very good soul, but you get the point).

I got the employee handbook when it came out and I am glad that I did. I found it very interesting and useful. I'm a person that loves gaining new information, and this book helps me do just that. 11/10. I'm glad that we got a clear timeline of events leading up to the downfall of the studio. One thing I know for sure after I read it is that I'd sure as heck never work in that studio. Some dreams may come true sure, but some dreams crash and burn. This dream crashed and burned. Joey also treated his employees awfully! If I was there, I wouldn't deal with it at all. I'd give my resignation right away and say, "Nope! I'm out! Bye!" I feel bad for the employees though. I also feel horrible for Bendy as well. He never asked to be brought to life. He never wanted to be like this. He's probably the one I feel the worst for other than Henry. No one deserved what happened to them. They were caught in Joey Drew's web of lies and suffering.
In one part of the novel Dreams come to life Allison mentions how Joey usually hired talented people who also "really needed the job" this means for them quiting just wasn't an option, which is even sadder
Yknow, if Joey wasn't so unhinged, the studio could've gone well. Notice how hard Grant Cohen had to work to make ends meet? There's a reason for that. Joey took too many risks from a business aspect. Bendyland, the ink machine, expanding the studio? None of that could've been cheap.
So between 1943 and 1952 Joey goes bankrupt and starts trying to find the final workers who left. But in 1950 (at least) a new form of cartoon had arrived, live action marionette shows. Which is where Showdown Bandit comes in. Are they connecting these 2 games to form some kind of BendyVerse

I got the book. Honestly, it's really good, and it's one of those books that you look through carefully, examining every detail, then one of those books that you read, but forget about it. The only problem with it was that the first 3/4 of the book was about the game, not the studio, or the lore. Maybe if they expanded the lore side of the book, it would have been better. I still love the book nevertheless. I give it a 8/10.
0:13 I just got the employee handbook, and it is super fun to read especially the pages at the end where it teaches you how to draw bendy, Boris and Alice
Gus Rubio Because the people made notes of the things that were near them???? How is that a question. A more important question is WHY THEY RECORDED THINGS THEY DIDN’T WANT OTHER PEOPLE TO HEAR?!
Okay, so I haven't thought about getting either of the books. I might look for them though, now that it tells all these things and shows all these different timelines. 🌷Awesome job Mike!
Hey , if you see this , can you go on and see if the game was a movie!?!? Have been saying this for a long time , I think my head is gonna explode if you don't do it.
Nice attempt at American accents, Mike. This book seems pretty cool and enlightening, and it's nice to see so many long-standing theories addressed one way or another.
Here is my bendy timeline . ( thanks to superhorrorbro, its a bit clearer now). might not be that accurate... 1929- Joey drew studios established by Henry and Joey After two weeks- Henry created bendy (Bendy’s first debut was little devil darling) After a while- Boris (debut was sheep songs) And then came Alice angel (only created, not in production) Then - cartoons were made using bendy and Boris the wolf Between 1929-1930 Henry created Alice angle. Henry left the studio by late 1930s 1931- Joey hired more workers to replace Henry and expanded the studio 1931-32- Susie Campbell hired for voice actress 1933- Alice angel debut in ‘sent from above’ (role first given to Susie Campbell) 1934- Heavenly Toys established (head: Shawn Flynn) [Alice was not very popular ] 1934-35 workers pushed to their limit (evidence - Sammy Lawrence 1935 log) Late 1939- early 1940 : Bertrum piedmont hired to make bendy land (Note: corrections in Bertrum’s designs were being made by Joey Drew in May and wanted them to be lifelike) [world War 2 began] After a while (maybe 1940-41) Joey thought of bringing his cartoon characters to life 1942-43 - Joey’s contract with Gent company (head: Thomas Connor) (Joey hired them as they were cheap and maybe he was impressed by their ink-make machine) [Note: Thomas Connor invented the ink machine] Joey Drew kept it a secret from his employees and labelled it as ‘special project’ By this time, the cartoons were not as popular as they were in 1930s. 1944- Ink Bendy was created through the ink machine (without a soul) Thomas Connor said that it was a fail as it was born without a soul. The same time : Many female workers were hired as the males were gone to fight wars. 1944-46: Susie Campbell fired from the job of Alice angel and replaced by Allison Pendle to drive her crazy to become Alice. The same time: Susie fell prey to Joey and was at first, born as a shapeless slug. She was then later born as Alice angel. (Note: Joey passed around a letter to all employees to cover up Susie’s disappearance.) 1946- newspaper wrote about financial hardships at the studio by the help of workers at the studio who quit their jobs The same year : Daniel ‘Buddy ‘ Lewek joined the studio (early) [ He did not know about the cartoons or the company’s hardships] 1946: Sammy Lawrence went insane due to exposition of high dosage of ink. Late 1946: Joey Drew purchased the court theatre. (Bertram was insulted at the announcement party of court theatre by being called bertie by Joey drew) The same time: Buddy Lewek fell prey to ink bendy and became the first ever success of the ink machine as boris the wolf. Then: Buddy ran away and made a hideout in the studio where he lived thereafter. (maybe he was the boris we meet in chapter 3) 1946-47 onwards: studio went bankrupt and Joey moved the ink machine to his apartment where he kept doing experiments thereafter. 1952: Allison pendle and Thomas Connor married and invited Joey Drew. Joey denied. Joey lured them back to the studio to then become Alice and Tom boris. (no specified year) Joey blamed Henry as the reason of his failure and lured him back to the studio around 1963.
I think Joey killed Henry and trapped his soul into this simulation made by the big machine (the one in chapter 5). Exposure to that ink which has a mind of its own and then standing on a pentagram, he started to get flashbacks and does not even remember that he is going through an infinite loop.
WHAT IF IN BATDR HENRY GETS FREED FROM THE LOOP BUT HE TURNS INTO A INK CREATION BY THE INK MACHINE LIKE MAYBE A GOOD BENDY SINCE HE CREATED HIM. MAYBE HENRY BENDY WILL HAVE A LONG BRUSH AS A TOOL OR SOMETHIN, PLEASE LET THIS BLOW UP SO THEMEATLY COULD SEE THIS!!!
Or you could just have contacted the meatly directly, I mean it’s not that hard. Edit: although it might be hard to ask with there busy schedule, but don’t give up my friend
I’ve always thought that maybe the line “he will set us free” is talking about Joey since he created the lost ones so they think he knows how to stop their suffering.
I have a theory, you know how the makers of bendy and the ink machine is joey drew studios, I think he invited Henry back to apologize and show him a video game based of the events that happened at the studios.
Henry honestly sounds way younger than fifty for some reason when he says “Hello is anybody there? I know you’re there. Come out and show yourself” “Boris?” He sounds like how I imagine him to sound when he first worked at the studio (minus the obvious panic in his voice)
This was great!!! I loved how the book put a timeline of events. I am still confused on what the ending of the game really is. Is it all a made up world or was it all real? Not sure. But awesome job as always!
So, Joey drew was killing people for the bendy persona? How did that go with no remarkable events? It feels like that part went over too quickly and smoothly. And what was the deal with the “ink experiments on humans”?
And with that the book is 3/4 closed on the BATIM timeline...thank you so much for making these vids and taking time on them.But im lets not get ahead of ourselves. We still have BATDR, Dreams come to life, and probably so much more in the future. Meanwhile, holy heck i didn't know there was a handbook released!!! And great readings! 10:4611:59
1929: Joey Drew Studios established 1930: Henry Departs the studio 1931: Joey announced big plans 1932: Susie Campbell was cast as Alice Angel 1933: Alice Angel is born 1934: Joey Drew Studios Expand and Heavenly Toys Established 1935: Worked Pushed their limits 1940: Bendyland Pre-Production 1941: Bertrum Piedmont was been hired for the project/buliding 1942: The studio was stressed 1943: The Ink Machine was installed and Thomas connor was been hired 1944: Joey Drew Studios acquired Gent Company and Studios Financial Crisis 1945: Joey Drew Studios and Gent Company Deal 1946: Jack Fain was hired, ink bendy was born, allison pendle was hired and a Scandal of the studios 1947: Grant Cohen wants to backpay Joey Drew Studios 1948: Controversial was spreading to the studios 1949: Studios was been bankrupt 1952: Allison Pendle And Thomas Connor was married 1963: Henry was return
I feel like a huge leap was made when we went from "I wanna make Disneyworld but with demons and wolves!!" to "Ink is able to be made into a solid, even alive, substance because of this machine." Like...they should have tried to explain the sience a little bit better in the game I think.XD
your the best bendy youtuber and you have GREAT theories, and you are my fav youtuber. p.s. i used to hate this game but when i watched your bendy video which was my first video i loved batim
I actually debunked when Henry left the studio-it was 1933. Given that Henry created not only Bendy and Boris but Alice as well (who was created in 1933), means that if he were to leave in 1933 and come back 30 years later, it would be 1963 (1933+30=1963), then year that BATIM takes place.
(This is just a theory, no need to take this seriously) At the end of Chapter 5, we hear a voice saying, "Tell me another story Uncle Joey." Uncle Joey? I can really only think of one person who would say this. It wouldn't be Henry's daughter (if he had one). We don't even know if he has a daughter, and it's just really unlikely. It wouldn't be Boris, he wouldn't have such a childish accent, as displayed in the old cartoons. We see Boris as the... Hungry, lazy guy. It wouldn't be Alice Angel either. She also wouldn't have a childish voice. In the cartoons, she has a soft, calm voice, that goes with her singing. Lastly, Bendy. I think the voice is Bendy because Boris and Alice would call Joey, just Joey or Dad or something along those lines, since Joey was the one who came up with the idea of Boris and Alice. Bendy, however, is Henry's creation, and since Henry and Joey were 'close friends', it really only made sense if that was Bendy speaking. Also, another thing. How was Bendy perfect? In the recordings, Joey stated that Bendy never came out perfect. So here is what I came up with: In the last shot, we see the Ink Machine in one of Joey's rooms. If we actually look at it in an angle, we see Joey's kitchen a little to the side of it. Remember that door Henry came through to get to the studio? Well, the studio is not actually a studio. It's inside the Ink Machine. And after Henry's soul was sacraficed, Joey was finally able to make the perfect Bendy. So, in a way, Henry IS Bendy. Or at least his soul is. And Bendy looks up to Henry as his father, since his soul was given up to create Bendy's. Thus, making Bendy the childish voice and what I think happened to Henry.
Can someone who knows about the history animation explain to me how in the hell did Joey Drew Studios managed to stay afloat with a money-crazed owner like Joey, in the middle of the Great Depression? Like, somehow, if the timeline in this video is right, the studio managed to stave off a financial crisis long enough for the ink machine to be put together.
the only thing I've learned from horror games is, never start a business with your friend named Henry, or you'll go insane and use people's souls for children's entertainment
I like how in all the horrors how most about like ghosts and characters was the main character or someone in the story is literally just made Henry is like a pretty big character
Could you maybe do an "everything you need to know" on the new characters in the Dreams Come to Life book for those people that arent able to purchase it?
Hold up! Let's do the math here: Henry left in 1930, but then returns in 1963? If it's been 30 years, then it'd probably be 1960, or maybe it's been 33 years, and then it'd be 1963. What do you guys think? Here's a summary: Ever since Henry left, Joey keeps having problems, because of that big ego of his. Now thanks to Joey, Henry is stuck in a loop. Now it is up to a female hero, and you, to BREAK THE CYCLE! ; )
The theory makes a bit of sense only the studio was not closed down until 1959 so Joey would have put up a real fight to keep things under wraps until then.
I think I have a new lead So in the bendy song build our michanc (released in chapter 1 of bendy) hints on a chapter 5 theory in the lyrics bendy says "The endings always just the same no gain" and this is a theory Henry's in an inf loop and also its hints on many more theorys Also idk if this is important but bendy also says "this disorder ruins ur day"
16:19 the full voice recording of that was “Every time I turn around there’s more work to do. Four cartoons almost complete and all of them need a tune by tomorrow. Typical joey planning. I’m working so much I’m starting to see bendy in my sleep. That smile…He’s always watching me. Few more months of this, I wouldn’t be surprised if that grinning demon drove me completely insane. That smile..somethings just wrong with that smile. Cant put my finger on it. Shake it off, Sammy. Best get back to your songs. Someone has to keep the little devil happy…”
This may be iff topic but, I wish we could’ve seen boris’ recorder, as its the only instrument we’ve actually seen him have in the posters, we’ve only seen his banjo in person though
The story of bendy never ended but the question remains, will bendy or Henry make amends to each other or will bendy, Boris, And/or Alice Angel be playable characters in the future?
Or if other characters could be playable? Wouldn't it be fun if it had character interactions like in Overwatch? I think any interaction featuring another character and Sammy would either be a laugh riot or super unsettling. Here's one I made between Sammy and Tom Connor : Sammy: You created my Lord's cradle, you know, I should thank you for that. 🤔😉 Tom Connor: And I think your Lord would thank me if I made it your mausoleum! 😒😈
What if the BATDS mechanic that randomly generates the levels is a story element? For example, the studio in BATIM is not really the studio Henry worked at. It’s created by the ink machine and made entirely from the ink. So, that means very well that the “studio” is ever changing, but new things are not being created (other than new creatures such as the lost ones, searchers, and Boris clones.) They are simply being randomized based off of what the original studio looked like and things it had ( such as audio logs and just rooms in general.) Then it makes sense that Henry actually recognizes the “studio” in chapter one (mostly). But, I don’t know, It’s just what I’ve sort of been gathering from your wonderful Bendy videos! I love them! Keep it up!
Sammy Lawrence : "A few more months of this, I wouldn't be surprised if that grinning demon drove me completely insane" The Meatley : *stops the slideshow* [6:29] "Sometimes foreshadowing is fairly obvious..."
I think Henry probably left around November or December if 1930 because we know from Joeys audio from 1931, also Henry probably left during that time due to him having a family also not seeing them, especially during that holiday time.

It sounded more like Wally Franks
It sounds pretty cool.
It’s actually sounds very close to the actual voice in the game!
I feel like Joey and Henry are the oldest members of the studio. They were probably born in 1890-1891.
Actually that a good theory
In that case:
Henry and Joey would be around 40 years old by the time Joey Drew Studios opened, making Henry 70 by the time BATIM takes place 30 years after Henry leaves.70 seems a bit too old for Henry to be able to run at a consistently fast pace, be able to fight ink monsters, and able to withstand several direct hits. I would say the 50s to 60s is better, but who knows? He might've been a really fit 70-year-old.
I actually do like your theory as it fits with the idea of Joey and Henry meeting during World War 1, as they would be around their early 20s by then, the age where most men joined to fight.
@@dannyanderson6677 I think that Henry became an inky creature after returning to the studio. Wich is why he doesn't seem so old. Sammy in Chapter 5 refers to Henry as he's talking to Bendy. I think Henry is the good version of Bendy.

And Henry returns to the studio in 1960.

Minespatch it wasn’t Meatly who did it it was Mike Mood and he was known to have a quite a few backlashes while working for Kindly Beast and there was nothing Meatly could do about it since he signed his game off to Roosterteeth when they made the console version
So Joey Drew Studios was founded in 1929 during the Great Depression in America. and went through the 1930's, then through World War II years and then finally closed its doors in the beginning years of the Cold War. that's actually pretty interesting if you think about it, because of the years it takes place in.
Will Henry’s time loop ever end!? I hope The Dark Revival can answer that question!
One of the trailers mentioned it’s time to break the cycle or something like that
Nope.
Its not a loop. Its a story, every chapter is a phase of the studio
(I mean...is the the best theory...;_;)
And in BATDR will not have Henry :"D
Sayumi Batata I mean everyone Henry ends the story, he repeats the same events that happened before, and he has been doing the same for 114 times, so to me, it feels more like a time loop rather than different phases. 🤔

While I’m waiting for the new bendy, your theories keep me excited for it
Same Here

When we look back at Joey Drew and his ‘soulless’ Bendy, it seems like he can’t really fit into the image of being child friendly. It was pretty strange that Joey had a a lot of skills in drawing and it was possible that he could have done a big portion of the planning or the concepts of the company’s animations. He had big ideas but he doubted himself from doing the ideas as he thought that his execution was disturbing and considered Henry’s skills as perfection, which did reflect the ‘soulless’ Bendy we constantly encountered in the game. He trapped his skills within himself when he established his company, until 30 years passed by and he finally decided to unleash what was inside of him; he drew a story, the monsters, and recreated the folk at the studio as miserable monsters. As his true face of his work unfolded, so did his ‘soulless’ Bendy that he abandoned so many years ago.
Finally, he turned the abandoned studio of unspeakable horrors into imagination. From then on, he finally felt satisfied with his work and he could proudly say, “he did it all by himself.”
Seeing a lot of the studio's history in more detail like this helps makes what Joeyd did to people around him feel more despicable if he wasn't already so. Makes me curious on how the enxt bok and game will expand more on the lore.
I love your voice impressions of the characters. They made this theory all that much better.
?
So, the Bendy cartoons were around for more than 30 yrs, but Bendy only had a physical form for about 18 yrs by the time Henry shows up. Technically, Bendy is a teenager. That would explain why he acts the way he does.
That...explains actually,holy sh*t
"IT'S NOT A PHASE DAD!!!!"

@@djalexander7723 XD
Um Cartoons Don't Age. What are you even going on about?
@@djalexander7723 But Cartoons are immortal. Wtf are you talking about man?!
That really does help clear things up for the timeline. Henry stuck around a lot longer than I thought he did, and you can really see the downward fall this studio took. Thanks for taking the time to put this together, man. I’m definitely looking for a way to get my mits on that guidebook lol.
I thought Thomas and Alison weren't the ink creatures in chapter 5 because they are just pure ink and don't contain a soul. So Joey couldn't get them back to the studio.
I agree, especially because Allison Angel in Ch. 5 states she doesn't remember anything before the Ink Machine popped her out, *even though* we know Susie Angel remembers her life before she joined the studio (i.e. who Henry is, her own name, being replaced as Alice Angel's VA, etc). So why wouldn't Allison Angel remember her life yet Susie does? The answer is that she's a soulless ink creature while Susie Angel actually does have a soul (obviously not a very good soul, but you get the point).
And also near the end of chapter 5 Allison angel says she can't move through the ink.
Snoi Med True, but was the letter dated? It could’ve easily been written before she was transformed.

@@tez3251 what
I got the employee handbook when it came out and I am glad that I did. I found it very interesting and useful. I'm a person that loves gaining new information, and this book helps me do just that. 11/10.
I'm glad that we got a clear timeline of events leading up to the downfall of the studio.
One thing I know for sure after I read it is that I'd sure as heck never work in that studio. Some dreams may come true sure, but some dreams crash and burn. This dream crashed and burned.
Joey also treated his employees awfully! If I was there, I wouldn't deal with it at all. I'd give my resignation right away and say, "Nope! I'm out! Bye!" I feel bad for the employees though. I also feel horrible for Bendy as well. He never asked to be brought to life. He never wanted to be like this. He's probably the one I feel the worst for other than Henry. No one deserved what happened to them. They were caught in Joey Drew's web of lies and suffering.
In one part of the novel Dreams come to life Allison mentions how Joey usually hired talented people who also "really needed the job" this means for them quiting just wasn't an option, which is even sadder
Well where do you live bendy?
It will be cool if they made a bendy game in VR
Jacob Attacks! That would be terrifying and I would love it OwO
I can hear the distant screams of lets players already...
Yeah, but terrifying
that is a good opinion but it makes it harder so if they do... good look
@@YourOpponent guess we'll both just have to wait and see ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Yknow, if Joey wasn't so unhinged, the studio could've gone well. Notice how hard Grant Cohen had to work to make ends meet? There's a reason for that. Joey took too many risks from a business aspect. Bendyland, the ink machine, expanding the studio? None of that could've been cheap.

I got the book. Honestly, it's really good, and it's one of those books that you look through carefully, examining every detail, then one of those books that you read, but forget about it. The only problem with it was that the first 3/4 of the book was about the game, not the studio, or the lore. Maybe if they expanded the lore side of the book, it would have been better. I still love the book nevertheless. I give it a 8/10.
2:37 I think this explains Chapter 1. This beginning part is what the studio was before it got expanded. Just a few desks for Joey and Henry to work
0:13 I just got the employee handbook, and it is super fun to read especially the pages at the end where it teaches you how to draw bendy, Boris and Alice
Hearing horror bro mike try to read in an American accent is probably the best thing I’ve ever heard
Theory on why audio logs are exactly where you need them.
Gus Rubio
Because the people made notes of the things that were near them????
How is that a question.
A more important question is WHY THEY RECORDED THINGS THEY DIDN’T WANT OTHER PEOPLE TO HEAR?!
It's from people where they last recorded it
Joey may not be a good man. But I give him major credit for staying positive.
Okay, so I haven't thought about getting either of the books. I might look for them though, now that it tells all these things and shows all these different timelines.
🌷Awesome job Mike!
Hey , if you see this , can you go on and see if the game was a movie!?!? Have been saying this for a long time , I think my head is gonna explode if you don't do it.
no
I didn’t read the book cause I wanted it to be a secret oh well I listen to this anyway maybe this might have a connection to the next game
Amazing.... Bendy’s story STILL gives me chills. 😅
Parts feel really realistic
Nice attempt at American accents, Mike. This book seems pretty cool and enlightening, and it's nice to see so many long-standing theories addressed one way or another.
Here is my bendy timeline
. ( thanks to superhorrorbro, its a bit clearer now).
might not be that accurate...
1929- Joey drew studios established by Henry and Joey
After two weeks- Henry created bendy (Bendy’s first debut was little devil darling)
After a while- Boris (debut was sheep songs)
And then came Alice angel (only created, not in production)
Then - cartoons were made using bendy and Boris the wolf
Between 1929-1930 Henry created Alice angle.
Henry left the studio by late 1930s
1931- Joey hired more workers to replace Henry and expanded the studio
1931-32- Susie Campbell hired for voice actress
1933- Alice angel debut in ‘sent from above’ (role first given to Susie Campbell)
1934- Heavenly Toys established (head: Shawn Flynn)
[Alice was not very popular ]
1934-35 workers pushed to their limit (evidence - Sammy Lawrence 1935 log)
Late 1939- early 1940 : Bertrum piedmont hired to make bendy land
(Note: corrections in Bertrum’s designs were being made by Joey Drew in May and wanted them to be lifelike)
[world War 2 began]
After a while (maybe 1940-41) Joey thought of bringing his cartoon characters to life
1942-43 - Joey’s contract with Gent company (head: Thomas Connor)
(Joey hired them as they were cheap and maybe he was impressed by their ink-make machine)
[Note: Thomas Connor invented the ink machine]
Joey Drew kept it a secret from his employees and labelled it as ‘special project’
By this time, the cartoons were not as popular as they were in 1930s.
1944- Ink Bendy was created through the ink machine (without a soul)
Thomas Connor said that it was a fail as it was born without a soul.
The same time : Many female workers were hired as the males were gone to fight wars.
1944-46: Susie Campbell fired from the job of Alice angel and replaced by Allison Pendle to drive her crazy to become Alice.
The same time: Susie fell prey to Joey and was at first, born as a shapeless slug. She was then later born as Alice angel.
(Note: Joey passed around a letter to all employees to cover up Susie’s disappearance.)
1946- newspaper wrote about financial hardships at the studio by the help of workers at the studio who quit their jobs
The same year : Daniel ‘Buddy ‘ Lewek joined the studio (early)
[ He did not know about the cartoons or the company’s hardships]
1946: Sammy Lawrence went insane due to exposition of high dosage of ink.
Late 1946: Joey Drew purchased the court theatre.
(Bertram was insulted at the announcement party of court theatre by being called bertie by Joey drew)
The same time: Buddy Lewek fell prey to ink bendy and became the first ever success of the ink machine as boris the wolf.
Then: Buddy ran away and made a hideout in the studio where he lived thereafter.
(maybe he was the boris we meet in chapter 3)
1946-47 onwards: studio went bankrupt and Joey moved the ink machine to his apartment where he kept doing experiments thereafter.
1952: Allison pendle and Thomas Connor married and invited Joey Drew. Joey denied.
Joey lured them back to the studio to then become Alice and Tom boris. (no specified year)
Joey blamed Henry as the reason of his failure and lured him back to the studio around 1963.
this was helpful..thanks dear
@Mimi Khas I don't think so. I think it was just to punish Henry for leaving the studio early and not showing Joey the right path...
I think Joey killed Henry and trapped his soul into this simulation made by the big machine (the one in chapter 5). Exposure to that ink which has a mind of its own and then standing on a pentagram, he started to get flashbacks and does not even remember that he is going through an infinite loop.
I'm missing the old Bendy theory background music
Same lol that was the first thing I noticed
Personally, I prefer the "It's a movie" theory, makes the ending less depressing for me that way. No disrespect tho, still enjoy your content
I think that the entire saga is just the book "The Illusion of Living" and that's why it's divided in chapters, like a book.
I'm so hyped for Dark Revival and the new Bendy novel book.
WHAT IF IN BATDR HENRY GETS FREED FROM THE LOOP BUT HE TURNS INTO A INK CREATION BY THE INK MACHINE LIKE MAYBE A GOOD BENDY SINCE HE CREATED HIM. MAYBE HENRY BENDY WILL HAVE A LONG BRUSH AS A TOOL OR SOMETHIN, PLEASE LET THIS BLOW UP SO THEMEATLY COULD SEE THIS!!!
Or you could just have contacted the meatly directly, I mean it’s not that hard. Edit: although it might be hard to ask with there busy schedule, but don’t give up my friend
I’ve always thought that maybe the line “he will set us free” is talking about Joey since he created the lost ones so they think he knows how to stop their suffering.
Where is the early squad at? Also, love this timeline video!

@@zombiem3mes441 I'm great thank you, how are you?
I have a theory, you know how the makers of bendy and the ink machine is joey drew studios, I think he invited Henry back to apologize and show him a video game based of the events that happened at the studios.
Henry honestly sounds way younger than fifty for some reason when he says “Hello is anybody there? I know you’re there. Come out and show yourself” “Boris?”
He sounds like how I imagine him to sound when he first worked at the studio (minus the obvious panic in his voice)

your the best bendy youtuber and you have GREAT theories, and you are my fav youtuber. p.s. i used to hate this game but when i watched your bendy video which was my first video i loved batim
Henry actually created the Big Three, however he didn’t stick around at the studio long enough to work on any cartoons featuring Alice
Watch, as batim has an extremely deep and confusing lore
At least it's not to much confusing like FNaF was just to be honest.

prohalfa thanks lol
@@saulgoodmansurine when its closer to release if he is looking for a small youtuber to help promote it let me know
Its nice to finally see a timeline for this game! Events can get confusing without it!
If bendy never existed, I would have found this channel, Also I'm a subscriber
Its been two years and I'm still waiting for bendy and the dark revival to come out
I actually debunked when Henry left the studio-it was 1933. Given that Henry created not only Bendy and Boris but Alice as well (who was created in 1933), means that if he were to leave in 1933 and come back 30 years later, it would be 1963 (1933+30=1963), then year that BATIM takes place.
(This is just a theory, no need to take this seriously)
At the end of Chapter 5, we hear a voice saying, "Tell me another story Uncle Joey." Uncle Joey? I can really only think of one person who would say this.
It wouldn't be Henry's daughter (if he had one). We don't even know if he has a daughter, and it's just really unlikely.
It wouldn't be Boris, he wouldn't have such a childish accent, as displayed in the old cartoons. We see Boris as the... Hungry, lazy guy.
It wouldn't be Alice Angel either. She also wouldn't have a childish voice. In the cartoons, she has a soft, calm voice, that goes with her singing.
Lastly, Bendy.
I think the voice is Bendy because Boris and Alice would call Joey, just Joey or Dad or something along those lines, since Joey was the one who came up with the idea of Boris and Alice. Bendy, however, is Henry's creation, and since Henry and Joey were 'close friends', it really only made sense if that was Bendy speaking.
Also, another thing. How was Bendy perfect? In the recordings, Joey stated that Bendy never came out perfect.
So here is what I came up with: In the last shot, we see the Ink Machine in one of Joey's rooms. If we actually look at it in an angle, we see Joey's kitchen a little to the side of it.
Remember that door Henry came through to get to the studio?
Well, the studio is not actually a studio. It's inside the Ink Machine. And after Henry's soul was sacraficed, Joey was finally able to make the perfect Bendy.
So, in a way, Henry IS Bendy.
Or at least his soul is.
And Bendy looks up to Henry as his father, since his soul was given up to create Bendy's.
Thus, making Bendy the childish voice and what I think happened to Henry.
Can someone who knows about the history animation explain to me how in the hell did Joey Drew Studios managed to stay afloat with a money-crazed owner like Joey, in the middle of the Great Depression? Like, somehow, if the timeline in this video is right, the studio managed to stave off a financial crisis long enough for the ink machine to be put together.
I don't know enough about The Great Depression and even less about animation history so sorry. I can't help you
It's been two years and this timeline still makes sense
the only thing I've learned from horror games is, never start a business with your friend named Henry, or you'll go insane and use people's souls for children's entertainment
I like how in all the horrors how most about like ghosts and characters was the main character or someone in the story is literally just made Henry is like a pretty big character
I like the idea of a horror game that focuses on crunch culture. It's definitely an interesting take.
I remember playing the first chapter after 5 days of its release. Golden times
Could you maybe do an "everything you need to know" on the new characters in the Dreams Come to Life book for those people that arent able to purchase it?
Hold up! Let's do the math here: Henry left in 1930, but then returns in 1963? If it's been 30 years, then it'd probably be 1960, or maybe it's been 33 years, and then it'd be 1963. What do you guys think?
Here's a summary: Ever since Henry left, Joey keeps having problems, because of that big ego of his. Now thanks to Joey, Henry is stuck in a loop. Now it is up to a female hero, and you, to BREAK THE CYCLE! ; )
You have the best theories
You are like the game/film theorist
But you are like the horror theorist or something like that
The theory makes a bit of sense only the studio was not closed down until 1959 so Joey would have put up a real fight to keep things under wraps until then.
Yas
I think I have a new lead
So in the bendy song build our michanc (released in chapter 1 of bendy) hints on a chapter 5 theory in the lyrics bendy says "The endings always just the same no gain" and this is a theory Henry's in an inf loop and also its hints on many more theorys
Also idk if this is important but bendy also says "this disorder ruins ur day"
I just hope in the Dark Revival, we get to see whether or not Henry is a perfect version of Bendy or if he wasn't affected at all 🤷🏾♀
16:19 the full voice recording of that was “Every time I turn around there’s more work to do. Four cartoons almost complete and all of them need a tune by tomorrow. Typical joey planning. I’m working so much I’m starting to see bendy in my sleep. That smile…He’s always watching me. Few more months of this, I wouldn’t be surprised if that grinning demon drove me completely insane. That smile..somethings just wrong with that smile. Cant put my finger on it. Shake it off, Sammy. Best get back to your songs. Someone has to keep the little devil happy…”
@Harrish Romero Wait what?
Woah, was that you voice-acting? Cool! 😁 👍 ✨
What a bizarre story. But it's so interesting~
This may be iff topic but, I wish we could’ve seen boris’ recorder, as its the only instrument we’ve actually seen him have in the posters, we’ve only seen his banjo in person though
The story of bendy never ended but the question remains, will bendy or Henry make amends to each other or will bendy, Boris, And/or Alice Angel be playable characters in the future?
Good question 😂
sonicEchris88 do you wonder once they release the sequel for batim will there be options to play in the POV of Boris , bendy, and/or Alice angel?
@@lovelyoldersister7192 first not is sequel neither a prequel , second , I like both sincerely , just for know the thinking of all and three 😄😉
sonicEchris88 that’s awesome and I found out just recently that is a unknown female protagonist in the not prequel/sequel of batim
Or if other characters could be playable? Wouldn't it be fun if it had character interactions like in Overwatch? I think any interaction featuring another character and Sammy would either be a laugh riot or super unsettling.
Here's one I made between Sammy and Tom Connor :
Sammy: You created my Lord's cradle, you know, I should thank you for that. 🤔😉
Tom Connor: And I think your Lord would thank me if I made it your mausoleum! 😒😈
What if the BATDS mechanic that randomly generates the levels is a story element? For example, the studio in BATIM is not really the studio Henry worked at. It’s created by the ink machine and made entirely from the ink. So, that means very well that the “studio” is ever changing, but new things are not being created (other than new creatures such as the lost ones, searchers, and Boris clones.) They are simply being randomized based off of what the original studio looked like and things it had ( such as audio logs and just rooms in general.) Then it makes sense that Henry actually recognizes the “studio” in chapter one (mostly).
But, I don’t know, It’s just what I’ve sort of been gathering from your wonderful Bendy videos! I love them! Keep it up!
You have a very interesting topic going on here and also I love this game so much I just can't get enough

"Anyone seen Bob?"
"Nope."

I think Henry probably left around November or December if 1930 because we know from Joeys audio from 1931, also Henry probably left during that time due to him having a family also not seeing them, especially during that holiday time.
I belive so too
