American Horror Story: 10 Craziest Fan Theories

By David Opie /

5. Could Dandy And Oliver Be Related In Some Way?

Speaking of Bloody Face, a number of fans online have drawn a connection between Asylum's Oliver Thredson and Freak Show's Dandy Mott, suggesting that the two could be brothers. Chronologically, the idea that Gloria Mott gave Oliver away as a young child makes sense and fans cite a number of reasons why this could be true. Both characters have some seriously disturbing mummy issues, including Oliver's strange breastfeeding desires and Dandy's bizarre relationship with Gloria, not to mention that they also enjoy killing people while wearing masks. Hell, the two of them even look alike! It's not hard to imagine that the orphanage Oliver grew up in is located somewhere near Florida and Gloria herself revealed that the family's DNA is corrupted by inbreeding, resulting in mental perversions that run through the family. If this theory doesn't pan out, then there's always the possibility that Dandy and Oliver are related in a more distant capacity as cousins, or are even linked in another way entirely. Oliver is a trained psychologist. Dandy is an untrained psychopath. If the crazy man-child is eventually caught, it's guaranteed that the authorities will recognise his insanity and provide him with treatment, potentially putting Dandy and Oliver together at last. Not since Batman and Robin first wore spandex together has a duo been so disturbing.
