The Devil's Playhouse Speculation Thread
So! With the deluge of information that came about today, there's tons of stuff to speculate about in regards to the new season.
On thing that really piqued my interest was that shot of the game's main villains.
Obviously in the middle is General Skunkape, and next to him is the insect man/thing that was seen in the trailer. To the right of Skunkape is a small man wearing what I assume to be a tophat. No idea who he could be. Next to him looks like what could possibly Brady Culture due to the afro and the prominent nose.
Next to him, is what appears to be Stinky of all people! And even more interesting is that next to him there appear to be four figures that look remarkably like Sam! And then, there's the two giant pillars in the background, that upon closer inspection, appear to resemble Max's legs! There also seem to be 3 different versions of molepeople to the left of the smaller figure next to insect man!

Glad to see a thread like this up already! I'll try to come back with more coherent thoughts once I've had time to mull over all these new details. Now, let's see ...
New females are always good anyways c8
Flint is listed as one of the characters that appear in this season. Just saying.
Yeah, Flint's in the trailer (albeit a quick shot) and
Use spoiler tags! Some people like me are avoiding stuff (except for watching the first cutscene).
Sorry. How do you do the spoiler tags again? I keep forgetting what amount of commas and /s I have to use.
(without the spaces)
Also, I think the brain is secretly evil. Just a feeling, so it's probably wrong.
I also have the feeling that Skun-ka'pe brainwashed Stinky or something.
There's a better picture of the character lineup in the VIP area. You need Photoshop or GIMP to open it, though.
The person with the afro has red eyes. I think their hair is smoother than Brady's. I think I can also see fangs, but I may be imagining it. But I don't think it's Brady Culture.
First episode - Skunkape appears to be main villain
Second episode - Papier Waite (http://vip.telltalegames.com/files/thedevilsplayhouse/concepts031010/sm301_papierwaite.jpg)
Third episode - Sal. Stinkys, perhaps? (I really like the name of this one. THEY STOLE MAX'S BRAIN!)
Fourth episode - Someone does cloning. Icon shows stupid Sam.
Fifth - I have no idea whatsoever. You meet Narrarator and fight at end I bet.
A Lovecraftian Eldritch abomination?
- Two molemen with brownish robes. The robes have a yellow smiley symbol;
- Another moleman with a hardhat and white shirt (likely Harry);
- A doll-faced kid of unknown gender wearing strange headgear and suspenders;
- Stinky in her waitress uniform;
- Sal, the security guard giant roach;
- The guy with the Fez, in a white suit;
- Skunkape;
- Huge-headed short guy with big white mustaches and tophat;
- Female(?) Hugh Bliss with red eyes dressed as a mariachi. Another sentient bacteria?
- Grandpa Stinky;
- Incredibly ugly and deformed male in a vest and hat;
- 4 Sams in underwear;
- Giant Max;
Tentacle monster!
Here's what the lineup looks like to me. Spadge got in first while I was writing this but I'll post this anyway because I said some different things.
From left to right:
A moleman with pigtails and a retainer. Female, I guess. Wearing a robe with a smilely face that's cut off at the knees.
A moleman wearing a round hat and a full length robe with a smilely face. Cult members?
A moleman wearing a shirt with a nametag, boots, and a hardhat. I think it's Harry.
A child or short adult wearing suspenders and maybe one of those hats with the flatps and goggles. Reminds me of a doll.
Girl Stinky.
Sal. His nametag is even readable.
A black and white man. A little transparent, maybe he's a ghost?
Skun-ka'pe.
A short man with a grey moustache and a top hat. Also transparent.
I can definitely see fangs, and the thing on the head is definitely not hair. Looks like a vampire wearing a helmet, and the legs make me think it's a woman. Definitely not Brady, unless he's in heavy disguise. Doesn't look like Hugh Bliss, either.
Grandpa Stinky.
A short man with a long neck, high cheekbones, a red nose and huge ears. It's a freakishly long neck. It's disturbing.
Four characters who look exactly like Sam and are wearing nothing but loincloths. They have belly buttons so they can't be clones. Hah. No, I'm joking, that wouldn't prevent them for being clones at all. In fact I hope they are.
I agree that the pillars are probably Max's legs. They're the right shape and height in proportion to the feet.
Oh and of course the tentacle lifeform is very interesting.
The ape looks odd to me, nah, i prefer living in another solar system instead *eating a banana*.
Anyway, the only thing I get it in the Trailer was the fact Sam was scared while they were walking in the weird hallway. Far I remember "They were too ignorant to be afraid", so maybe, Sam knows something about what's going on here? (Or maybe is a clone =P).
Probably is because they don't want to make any promises. But, if its released September 8, I'll not complain ^^!

Ha, I hope to never see another Soda Popper again .
He remain me the mascot of the Monopoly Board Games.
I was wondering about the guy who's between Grampa Stinky and Sam's Clones: It's just my idea or his neck is really long?
edit:hm, that head looks a lot like the puppet president.
I have to watch the Big version to figure out what are you telling me. Yes, looks like the Puppet President, but also looks like it has a clown makeup.
The Jurgen-Bliss-Brady combination looks like a woman to me :P
