OK So i've just posted this over on another website and figured it belonged here too ....
OK, So i've been watching the forums for a long time but figured I could probably provide an interesting bit of speculation rather than going round in circles over the whole Usher debate, I thought I'd think about it a different way.
Somewhere it's been mentioned that this will be the part of a three part wave covering the next three years and I'm starting to seriously doubt if we will see "The Usher" for this years event.
I've been taking in everyone's opinions which are on the whole all very plausible ... so why can't everyone be right (kind of at least ... you'll see where i'm going with this in a second ...)
So we're not going to see The Usher this year ... how about the Theatre has come alive and is using the staff as pawn's in it's evil plan ... anyway cut to ... Police / Paranormal Teams shutting the Theatre down and exorcising whatever evil spirits are controlling the theatre ... that would lead to a lot of the Usher's suffering from severe mental issues afterwards ... what we'd be seeing this year is kind of a Prequel of the Usher ... what turned him into the way his is. Next years event maybe could follow on the story ... his journey through mental institutions and his banishment from society working up to him disapearing and returning as "The Usher" that we keep talking about. So in effect we won't see the Usher as such this year but we'll see his past.
Am I just thinking way too much here or could this be a plausible explanation ???
