I don’t think they merge. If they did, he will able to use shadow power. 🤔I think it proves my theory right - Christopher and Anthony did merge... except Anthony took control and killed Christopher on purpose, to survive
Once a shadow die, their faceless doll will be brainwashed to become a labor for the mansion. I think he worry she will tell other adult about him and he can’t take her with him. So he just kill her off. But I think this way will make other adults suspicious. 🤔I wonder what Anthony's end game is. If he wanted the cult of personality the Great Grandfather has for himself you'd think he would steadily try to build a following within the adult and children's wing; power in numbers and all that. But he killed a potential follower/spy who was already pro-Anthony to take over. It's weird, right? And the adult who we've seen is pro-Anthony seems to also be a FANATIC of him. Even if Anthony may have mind control related abilities I still think it's weird to kill off potential mook resources if he really is planning a takeover. It just doesn't make sense. I'm starting to feel like he has other plans. I sincerely doubt he's simply power hungry. Like, that might be a part of it but this move tells me there's more to what he wants to do than just become the new head.
