10 Crazy Westworld Theories You Won't Believe
6. They Are All Dead
Likelihood: 1/5
If you think everyone being a robot isn't f**cked up enough, let's go with the old cliche of everybody's dead. It is back to Nicole Kidman in The Others, as have we actually been rooting for a bunch of ghosts for the entire season?
That critical failure (there it is again) wiped out all life on Westworld. The "guests" are actually ghosts just stuck in a loop. It would explain why the hosts have started to "remember" their past lives, and would also neatly tie up why robots can't "kill" the guests.
This theory will be debunked as soon as we see the bots break protocol and start going slash-happy with the butcher knives. An M. Night Shyamalan theory if ever I have heard one, taking Westworld from LOST to Supernatural. Why they would do it? No reason. Would they do it? Every other film seems to have this theory in it somewhere, so why not?
