Grave Encounters 2 Headcanons based on the events of the movie
But it's mostly Alex And Trevor stuff
+ my thoughts on some smaller things
Trevor being the owner of the dress and stating he wore it once for a previous party is under noticed and I personally as a way for Trevor to convince Alex to wear the dress by using shared experience. Trevor wanted that cookie so bad.
Trevor asks Alex "can we PLEASE go get tacos" while he's high and I like to think that this is a regular event for the two. They leave the apartment together and head to a Chipotle (that's a burrito place right?) or Taco Bell and hang out. I wish we got more of their friendship before Alex's obsession, I really love their Dynamic.
When Alex and his film crew head to Helia's place to interview her, we get a lot of information on Sean. For starters; he "always wanted to be an actor" making me think he has been struggling to get his foot in the door until Grave Encounters came around- making his fate even more tragic.
We also hear that Sean was a cat person from Trevor. He follows up with saying Alex is one too- another thing that isn't ever brought up. Because of this, I think Trevor is a dog person because it fits with his vine and pushes their mirroring of each other.
Everytime we see people in a car, Alex is always the one driving. I think he's the type of person who is a really annoying backseat driver AND gets sick if he's in the back of the car. The van he drives for the road trip I like to think would be Trevor's or Jared's, he just insists upon driving it, even though hes going to complain about the directions the whole time.
don't know where to put this but Alex smokes nicotine and if he was a college student today, he'd vape- probably fruit ices or mints. He thinks E-cigs are pretentions and performative, however.
When they entered the asylum, Alex had an entire plan filled out mentally about how things would go- that's why he gets so aggravated when "DeathAwaits" doesn't shlw up initially and is in a bad mood after that- his plan- his narrative was just shattered. This explains his statement ,later in the movie of "I didn't think any of this would happen" (he's so autistic someone kill him)
Tessa tried really hard to act tough, being the one to break into the private property and break the chains, but she's really quite soft. Tessa was the most scared of the asylum and broke down instantly when Jared died. I like to think that she feels the need to be tough because she refuses to concede to Alex's control.
In grave encounters 1 and 2 Lance/Sean refers to Sasha as "Sash" but I like to believe he's actually saying "Ash" which is short for Ashleigh. Sasha's actress is named Ashleigh Gryzko. This would fill out the plot hole of the actors exclusively using the stage names of their coworkers. Because Grave Encounters was only on their 6th episode, I don't think it's crazy to imagine that they weren't too close- except for Sasha and Lance. They had a lot of Chemistry and would have likely ended up together if it weren't for the asylum.
Sean targeted Trevor when he was alone because Trevor was the strongest and tallest of the trio. Sean believed he could easily take out Jennifer and Alex, but Trevor was a problem, not to mention his constant suspicion and hesitancy.
Alex was not actually evil and I feel like people miss this. He wasn't a good person, but he didn't actively search out harm for others, but he didn't look to help others much either. Alex didn't hate women for not fucking him, he was just chronically single and sexually frustrated (me too bro). At the end of the movie when Alex kills Jen, it's not some incel-esque vengeance plan, but rather an action of self preservation. He understood how to escape before Jennifer did and seized the opportunity. It was him or Jen or neither of them, he took the best option for him because he's selfish, but not because he's evil. Alex wasn't sorry during this, because he didn't see it as his own action, rather the ghosts forcing his hand.
