adding to my BuzzFeed Unsolved idea
Mar. 11th, 2020 06:44 pmSo I wasn’t going to add to this but I had an idea about Ricky Goldsworth & I felt bad about not saying more about Ryan.
So Ricky is the only ghoul that manged to get past Shane’s disbelief filed.
When they visited the Waverly Hills Hospital Ryan was so busy freaking out at the ball landing by his name & Shane’s too busy mocking him with the ‘I love Pot’ graffiti that neither of them thought about the other name on the wall. (Across from Ryan’s name & above the Pot message).
I don’t know if Rick is actually a demon or not but he’s probably not very strong. He tried to take over Ryan but for all the guy believes in the supernatural he also believes in enough of defences against them to carry holy water with all the time so it not easy.
Ricky hid deep down to try and gather his strength. Between Ryan’s belief in the defences he had & Shane’s disbelief in ghouls in general Ricky was stuck. But then Shane actually gave him a name.
Because Shane thinks it’s a bit his disbelief couldn’t stop him but at the same time it prevents him from not acting like it’s not a bit, not really. So Ricky can only grab moments of freedom & can’t actually do anything & Ryan’s none the wiser.
So something like the theory from the post-mortem but Ricky’s trapped in the bit now & can’t get out of it.
