Home Alone fans have terrifying theory about who Kevin grew up to be

In the realm of Christmas movie fan theories, one particularly chilling hypothesis has emerged regarding the beloved holiday classic "Home Alone." Fans of the film have speculated a dark future for its protagonist, Kevin McCallister, portrayed by Macaulay Culkin.

The theory suggests that Kevin might have evolved into a notorious serial killer, specifically John Kramer, aka Jigsaw, from the "Saw" film series.

This eerie theory, which has been circulating since 2014, draws parallels between Kevin's inventive methods of warding off burglars in "Home Alone" and Jigsaw's sadistic traps in "Saw."

Supporters of this theory point to the physical resemblance between Culkin and Tobin Bell, who portrays Kramer, noting their similar eye color and hair.

Beyond physical similarities, the theory delves into the characters' shared penchant for elaborate traps and electronic communication methods. Kevin uses electronic devices to interact with others, while Kramer employs screens to communicate with his victims.

Additionally, some fans have linked Jigsaw's plan to burn someone alive in "Saw II" to Kevin's childhood fear of his basement furnace and his fascination with his neighbor, whom he suspects to be the South Bend Shovel Slayer.

While this theory has reached "Saw" director and co-creator James Wan, who dismissed it but appreciated its creativity, it continues to intrigue and entertain fans.

The idea that Kevin McCallister could have transformed into the twisted mind of Jigsaw adds a haunting layer to the otherwise cheerful holiday film.
