One thing I find interesting tho, Jennifer is technically not "perfect" like the rest of her family. Her neurotic trait, which is a trait I believe to actually represent anxiety, is considered a non undesirable trait in the Sims 3. Perhaps what ever her family is hiding is putting strain on Jennifer mentally and she is secretly writing everything down on a digital diary thus her really good writing skill

I believe that Jane and John is a reference to what police call corpses before they are identified. If there’s a female corpse she’s a Jane Doe if male John Doe. I believe this is hinting that the actual parents are dead and the people who killed them has stolen their identity. The teen might’ve no liked his parents so he didn’t say anything about their deaths. Jennifer maybe has been threatened to not say anything , that’s why she has the neurotic trait and James is a toddler and wouldn’t understand. I played with this family and I tried to make Joseph flirt with his love interest but he wouldn’t he would only flirt with boys. Now I’m not sure but he might be gay and his parents didn’t like that. So that’s why he won’t say anything about their deaths. He might feel finally free but still has a relationship status because he was pushed too far by his parents to love girls

Maybe they all died at their old basement and the basement got covered to hide what happened in their house.

They probably killed and buried people, and Joseph feels guilty about it. As the first replier said, they let Jennifer take Joseph's place. This stressed Jennifer out, and she developed the neurotic trait. Or they kept Joseph and abused him, and it stressed Jennifer.

I think this works with the feel of the town - in this town being weird is normal, so being normal is considered weird by the other residents of Midnight Hollow. I also sometimes feel like Midnight Hollow is an alternate reality, like the land of the dead in Corpse Bride. So the Does could be a normal family that just died and their souls went to Midnight Hollow and they don't remember or know why (because they are unidentified corpses) so they get upset whenever they're asked.

The corpses theory is right where my mind went. I never had this town so this is my first time hearing about them. I watch some conspiracy and occasionally true crime outside of the Sims and it seems to be what they were going for to me. Also their son mirroring another Sim isn't just creepy, but it sounds like that same person went missing in an alternate timeline and this is his "corpse." It reminds me of the maid in Sims 2 for PSP who seems alive but has been dead for almost 100 years. Also, I don't particularly find Joseph storming out to be suspicious. It seemed more like the whole situation made him uncomfortable so if anything he knows something and doesn't know what to do or say. I just can't blame him. That's just my take. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The original Stepford movie has a sequel/ spin off named the Stepford children, if the Stepford theory is true, Jon Doe may have replaced both wife and son , as in the sequel only the teens are replaced. Also funnily enough, in the 2004 movie they're not really robots , just brainwashed with microships, regardless of the quality of this movie, it shows robots is no the only way wives turn into Stepford Wives. This is a reach, but maybe they pulled different plot points from different Stepford media and if they did the story of the family may go like this: Jon Doe brainwashed in the basement both his wife and son to be perfect, and the little girl is neurotic because she is the only one old enough to notice the change in hef mother and brother, and not only that, she knows she's next. The strange skill levels on the two may be because their roles are different, Jane as a wife doesn't have to do anything besides look pretty so she doesn't have any, but Joseph as the son has to be a prodigy so he has many.

I think she became nervous and maybe tried to poison or sedate her so she wouldn’t find out that she killed the other family. And that is how she killed them. She invited them for tea as a little “Welcome Wagon”, sedated/poisoned all of them and buried them in their basement. She then filled it with concrete and tried to forget. This is also why the son stormed out of the interview. He KNEW the truth, and didn’t want to admit that they weren’t too sunny anymore... And also why they denied the house tour. But that’s just a theory, a sims theory :3

I still feel like Jane being "artificial" in some way is very likely. She is supposed to be the perfect housewife, but she has no skill points whatsoever. Skills are abilities that have to be acquired over time through practice. The implication is that Jane never had to "learn" to be perfect, it's her natural state of being. The names Joe and Jane doe makes you immediately think of dead bodies, but the names are used for anyone whose identity is unknown. Perfect people have no proper identity either. They're like the kind of people you can really only describe as nice because there is nothing else to them.

So, while I'm aware that most people think this theory is impossible.... I really do think they're serial killers! However, I think they're trying to change, but it took them until after their second child to start really trying. 1. They seem to be very eager to avoid talking about their personal lives. There are even movies and shows in which someone is hiding a body and literally just keeps offering tea to distract from it, which would also explain why Joseph stormed out, but his siblings seemed unaffected; they didn't know. 2. The basement is filled in; what reason would they have to do that other then to cover up past crimes? 3. This is the BIGGEST one for me... JANE CONSTANTLY REFERENCED TO BE COOKING AND BAKING BUT HAS NO REAL COOKING OR BAKING SKILLS! A MEAN POT ROAST???? FRESH MADE SCONES????? Every other member of her family has their skills completely set, but not Jane. They weren't going small, they CONTINUOUSLY reference her as if she's this cooking Guru, so why doesn't she have any cooking type skills.... Unless she's not cooking with normal food.

Not my theory, but a head-canon I have is that the Does moved to Midnight Hollow and changed their names because Joseph had killed someone in the town they previous lived in. He did it either by accident or intentionally, but I am leaning more on intentionally. In the long run his parents and sister found out. The parents helped cover up the murder, and the sister found out by easedropping on a conversation her parents were having about it, hence the neurotic trait she possesses, because she knows too much. When they made it to Midnight Hollow, the parents had the basement filled in, in hopes of preventing Joseph from continuing to kill.

I like a theory where Ethan actually wanted to disappear and the Doe family took him in and disappeared together. He became their son. You can combine this with a theory where the family was running away from something ( victims or perpetrators). And the move to the new city makes sense for all!

My theory is that the Does are a meta-commentary on society itself. The Does are the ideal family, that's it. There's no underlying secrets here. Nothing suspicious. It's all about our perceptions of what's normal and acceptable. Let's cover some oddities. Jane doesn't have any cooking skills but she has the talent for it and the desire to do so. It's not that unusual for women to put off their desires to raise a family and that seems to be what she's done here. Joseph is a teen, so John and Jane married young and started the family right away. John already knew how to cook, so he did it when they first got married, building up his skill a bit. Once John started making money, they ordered out in one way or another. This was John's way of spoiling Jane after taking care of the kids. So...why does he brag about her pot roast making skills in the interview? Simple. He's lying. It's clear from Jane's skillset that she'd burn salad, but the fact that they have to order out all the time is no one else's business. Jane feels ashamed for not having any cooking skills, so he made up this lie because he cares more about her feelings than anything else. Joseph's gardening skill being so high is a combo of two things. 1) He's a genius and 2) It may have been something to fill the time before he had siblings. Once Jennifer became a child and he had someone else to talk with at home, he lost interest in the garden so it was taken out. Not having a basement. My theory here is that it's chilly in Midnight Hollow so they filled in the basement to save on heating bills. So....why do they live in Midnight Hollow in the first place? I'd say it has to do with the schools. You've got a couple of genius kids who are getting C's. This tells me they're likely being challenged in a way they weren't in other schools. Why is Jennifer neurotic? Because sometimes kids are. Because even though the Does are the ideal family they're not perfect...just...societally ideal. Maybe her father's perfectionism is a bit much for her. And that's the ultimate in meta-commentary. Think about all of the eccentric townies in Midnight Hollow this is their society. Yet, if you brought them out of Midnight Hollow and put them into Sunset Valley, they'd stick out like a sore thumb and they'd be the suspicious ones. They could be just fine and normal on the inside...just look strange on th outside. In the Sims...the people are what you make of them and it doesn't have to match what kind of outfits you put on them or how ordinary, weird, or beautiful they look who they are is what they are...none of that other superficial stuff. But...the Does are the societal ideal. And, in reality, that societal ideal is creepy as hell to the rest of us who don't fit into it. --Bri

when I learned of the Doe family, I immediately thought of an episode of the Magnus Archives about a college professor who slowly comes to realize he’s teaching anatomy to a group of mimics who are learning how to fake being human better through his lessons. every student has a name that’s a different countries version of the term “John Doe”, and they seem human at first, just… off. it makes me think that maybe the Doe family in Midnight Hollow is something similar - a family of mimics, except instead of learning how to be more human, they’re faking humanity SO WELL that it becomes suspicious. this could explain why Joseph looks so much like Ethan Bunch; the thing that became Joseph based his current identity off of Ethan. for extra creep points, maybe their basement is filled in because they killed and replaced whoever lived there before, burying the bodies in the basement to keep the authorities from finding out. hell, it could even explain the family’s odd behaviour in the interview!! they couldn’t answer the question about why they moved to Midnight Hollow truthfully (since it would give away what they are) and they didn’t want the interviewer finding small hints of their inhumanity during a house tour, or god forbid any trace of the murders or the sealed basement, so they panic and at first try to deflect the interviewer’s attention to something else, then shut down the interview entirely when that doesn’t work.

But just kidding tho because i highly doubt thats what they were hinting at 😂

Speaking about the theory where the bunch family and the doe family are connected. Recently a scientific experiment was declassified where they were taking twin babies at birth and separating them into two different households to observe the differences between home environments and the impact on the child being raised there. Is it interesting at all to think that Joseph Doe and Ethan bunch are twins separated at birth? By the time they have this interview, is it possible that he discovered this information and they won't let him talk about it?

My personal theory is that they are exactly as they are... eerily perfect, and their secret is just ambiguous. Kind of serves as a reference to Stepford wives, The Stepfather, and just generally that whole little subgenre of "Suspiciously perfect" horror.

The Stepfather is based on Joseph Lister's 1950s murder of his entire family then disappeared for decades - he was found when an artist was hired to sculpt what he may have looked like and his neighbor recognized his face There are theories he remarried and killed his family again over the time he was missing and at the time of his arrest he was married w teenage children

Great video! I really enjoyed it and love all of these creep theroies. To me it is very odd, that Jane has no skills but everyone else does. That made me think, she is a stay at home mom after all. Wouldn't that mean she would at least be good at cooking? I think, that Jane was murdered and someone else replaced her. The body of the original Jane Doe is in the basement that was filled up with concrete. Maybe Joseph knows that his mother was replaced. Maybe her death was just an accident and John somehow managed to get someone, who looks like Jane (maybe her secret twin sister) and convinced her somehow to live with them.

I like the theory that Joseph was a stolen infant. Ethan's identical twin brother, to be exact. The family struggled to have kids for years and resorted to kidnapping baby Joseph; he doesn't remember, but the lie lead to a lot of teen angst and confusion about why he doesn't belong like the others. While playing in the family basement, Jennifer found proof that Joseph was kidnapped and approached her mom...so her mom and dad demolished the basement and swore her to secrecy through emotionally abusive threats (you don't want your brother taken away do you? You don't want your mommy and daddy thrown in jail do you? You don't want to destroy our family do you?) She's now a neurotic child who isn't sure how to approach this.

I’d like to share my thoughts on this story. ❤️ It’s not really a theory, just how I like to imagine this scenario. ☠️ Salas family is actually composed by two adults ghosts that met in a ghost event, as their family bio reads. Once, they had a baby boy. But, curiously... it was a baby human, not a ghost. Actually, not an ordinary baby human: a soulless corpse that, for a unknown reason, is “alive”. They called this baby... Joseph. Somehow scared of the difficulties that a child like this would face, they decided to leave the baby in a orphanage. Many years later, though, this baby couldn’t find a family. Alone, he developed many abilities, in order to forget his sadness. He escaped this orphanage, just to, later, find himself living near the house where his biological parents live a happy life with their two ghost kids. He wish he could be part of it; but it would never be possible. Suicide was never a solution, since he does not have a soul to be able to live with his parents, once dead. Sorrow and envy made a dreadful idea be born in Joseph’s head. The prodigy boi read a LOT, since he’s a bookworm with a lonely life. This lead him to know that every existing soul have a dead corpse to match it. In his biological family, all of that bodies were buried in the family “basement”. That’s when Joseph decides to dig up all the bodies and, with a little help of a “Frankenstein” science, he became able to make himself part of a happy family. A soulless corpses family... but still, a happy family. You know, the families had never met before. And that’s how Joseph is managing to keep his secret. But... The corpse little sister is a student in the same school that ghost little sister. Well... seeing another girl that is SO similar in looks, hobbies, and family aspects... she got kinda neurotic and suspicious of her reality. (Note: Yeah, I know that Salas baby is a female, while Doe’s is a male. BUT, back in those days, I couldn’t create a reasonable explanation for that. Right now, I’d like to think that the baby would eventually discover himself a transgender, or so on). Anddd, that’s pretty much how I like to play with this two families. As I said, more like a fanfic than a theory, but oh well, the important is to have fun, right? ^_^ Anyway, happy Halloween, everyone! 👻 🎃
