Who is the Intruder? What are the Alternates? And what’s up with that new Plushie?! We’ve got a lot of secrets to uncover in The Mandela Catalogue, Loyal Theorists, so let’s get cracking!

Honestly, that's not too bad, but the alternates on the other hand are terrifying to me. xD;

Just something else to add, in vol 1, when the tape instructs you how to handle alternates, it tells you to block all entrances (which can be EXITS) and to keep a firearm with you…. Just remember what happened when Mark was left with a firearm and no exits…
He got dead
IIRC alternates can be dealt with via good old Murrika method so the advice of not being scared and confronting them comes full circle

I think Gabriel and the Intruder are not competing forces, but the same one. You had mentioned the holy trinity and I think Gabriel is meant to be the Father, the Intruder the Spirit, and Adam the Son. I think the Intruder uses children to create and spread alternates to do Gabriel's bidding and at the same time try and find the right vessel to be Gabriel's son which turned out to be Adam.
then why would he tell people to stay away from tv screens? that just makes him useless.
This makes sense because gabriel and the intruder seems to be on the same side because gabriel said this to david before killing him you still managed to follow the shepperd and in the 2nd vol of the series the intruder says to adam you followed the shepperd follow my voice instead
@@caternity4621 I was actually under the impression that the entire TV and US-state stuff isn't actually them being under Gabriel's control, rather just a super worn-down national attitude to the fact that there is no way to defeat the alternates, and there is no way to avoid them, so save yourself the effort and do not respond to callers, and do not help people who are being attacked. Though, I've held this opinion since Vol. 1 and 2, but not necessarily maybe after Vol. 333 and 4. But I think the theory that the TV and US stuff isn't necessarily them being under an influence's control fits the theory that Gabriel and the Intruder aren't competing somehow.
@@hamingnu6610 my theory is the otherwise, but since both of them fits the story we need another video to confirm these theories.
@@bonzc9857 that was Gabriel that said it in volume 2 still. Not the intruder.
I think the name O’brian could also have some symbolism to the book 1984, Obrian being a character which Winston thought would lead the society to safety but actually betrays them, tortured them. This society is also like the opposite extreme to the Mandela catalogue, making everyone have a ‘telescreen’ in every room to keep watch on them.. idk it’s just some interesting links
Literally 1984
Yes, everything is 1984. Great, you solved it.
Omg I was just thinking about this

That line goes hard. Depending on the context, it can give a lot of emotions.

Con also confirm with an aunt from Wisconsin😁
Another huge reason 911 operators are possibly forbidden to help with alternates is because they don't know if the person calling is a real person in danger or an alternate itself. Such a facinating series!!
What if the 911 operators is a alternate hmm
@@donuts3476 Well, at the beginning of the series they arnt. However, later in the series Mat brings up a good point about how the government could've been overthrown by alternates... Which means it's highly likely that police and 911 dispatchers later on were replaced with alternates. It's a bizarre and complex story for sure.
@Alexa Horan yeah sorta scary. If ur in danger ur first reaction is to call a emergency number, but If those arnt safe then u are screwed.
@@donuts3476 agreed lol
You guys can't be actually believeing the alternate controls the government there this one big plot hole if the alternates control the government why won't the government take the sanctions off and make tv legal again if you want the most accurate theories go to wendigang channel and go to live scroll down and watch mandela catalogue vol4 wendigoon much better than matpats theories.
I wonder how Mat feels knowing Alex publicly said that his theory about Gabriel and the Intruder being opposing factions is incorrect and the funniest theory on the series he's seen.
Where did he say this?
@@therealevilmudbug Wendigoon did an interview with him a few months back, when asked about what Alex thought was the funniest theory he's seen, to summarize, he picked the theory that Gabriel and the Intruder are opposing factions.
Fun fact about OwO, he is actually still going pretty strong right now and I'm excited when he does make a comeback from having his channel shut down.
OwO got shut down???
OwO no!
.... I hate myself for making that pun.
Series is still my favorite, the Mandela catalogues is the only series that seems to keep me awake at night and actually makes me feel like something is out to get me. Can't believe this indie series made by a single man scares me more so then the multitude of horror movies made by teams of people with hundreds of cinematography technologies under a company, only story that made me feel remotely scared was smile and that movie seemed like it had actual thought out into it.
Also these theories are also really interesting, story goes from completely scary to feeling like a old history documentary I would be watching at 11 pm, keep up the good work matpat!
it takes a lot to scare me….but jfc alex knows horror. i was watching night minds breakdown of it and he explained how alex perfectly portrayed horror with this one. i don’t know how they did it but alternate thatcher will now be the thing that haunts me during my sleep paralysis episodes. this was phenomenal

@Patrick39 here’s the best comeback I have for you:
No
the mandela catalogue is one of the few things that truly scares me. the uncanny valley really fucks with me
and since the uncanny valley exists, does that mean humans evolved to fear distorted faces?
@@justbethinking I think it's the opposite, we feel uneasy because we can't figure out whether it's a "threat" or not especially if it's humanlike, I think these scares are effective because they combine uncanny images with our knowledge that these creatures are dangerous/a scary atmosphere
Never watched it but yeah I COULD NOT SLEEP AFTER ONE SCENE
i had watched too many mandela memes before i watched it so i ended up laughing the entire time 💀
@@justbethinkingyes you’re right on. Distorted faces can either be a predator or a diseased corpse
9:57 Mandela Catalogue gives me nightmares, I won’t lie about that, but this visual nearly made me cry laughing. The little alternates look like bowling pins! 😂💀
Could the intruder really be the antihero in the Mandela Catalogue? If so, I think that’s actually awesome.
Plot Twist: this series just wants us to go read the Bible
Do not. When Matpat say that there is something off with religious imagery. He mean Sunday school pop-Christianity off. Actual bible is far more insane then this series.
czcams.com/video/40KcrrfbJ6o/video.html
The bible is cool but it is pretty time consuming to read all through the pages
If you wann a solve it you have to read the bible
@@duckgod666 Unfortunately not really.
Why would someone waste their time for that book of bullshits tho.
Here is something I noticed in the Mandela Cataloge I noticed the religions that the government are heavily discouraged were religions with the devil and demons, and ways to get rid of them. Because of that, my theory is that Gabriel is trying to eliminate possible threats to his alternates.
While I understand your thought process I’m also gonna have to say no. It is kinda shown that while the alternates might have some power over the government that the power they do have is minimal. I honestly think matpat kinda forgot the part in the T.H.I.N.K principle where the screen glitches out after the “K1LL Y0URS3LF” message and it gets replaced with “KNOW YOUR PLACE IN REALITY”, showing that it’s not the actual advice, and instead it was just briefly replaced by an alternate, cause they affect technology (something that is shown repeatedly in the series)
Anyways don’t know if that was intelligible, kinda lost the train of thought there for a moment. What I actually meant to comment was that in this series the alternates corrupted and hijacked religion. Meaning that by worshipping one of the major religions you are actually just following the alternates teachings. Being religious is exactly what they’d want. The advice to avoid religion is legitimate.
@@schlorping5156 I agree that alternates have minimal control. The reason I think that is because alternates haven't been studied or researched by the government, they simply assume and used basic precautions for intruders. (i.e lock all entrances, don't communicate, and use force when necessary). It is bad advice for alternates but it isn't on purpose. The government has little to no knowledge on them. Other videos from the government from the series (like the Metaphysical awareness disorder video) is good advice and could work (i.e staying away from religion).
basically since gabriel has taken the place and role of jesus / god, he is the one who receives the prayers of practising people. therefore, practising religion allows gabriel to have more control over you and leaves you way more vulnerable to the alternates
@@schlorping5156it is more likely that Gabriel is against religion because it prevents people from killing themselves and the truth about Gabriel is exposed in the religion

I feel like there are multiple intruders with different levels of hostility, mark heathcliff's encounter went smoothly with no one harmed this implies that the first intruder is a burglar alternate, the second one being the kidnapper, and the third one could be the most hostile
Hey MatPat, I’m a big fan of your content!
I doubt you’ll be reading this, but on the off chance you do I think you should consider making a theory on an indie series on CZcams’s platform called Murder Drones.
It’s rich of lore, theory’s, and is… criminally unknown for how good it is.
Cheers!

the mandela catalogue makes me so paranoid, i used to think i had to make lemonade every night and give it to my family in the morning to make sure they're not alternates.

Yessir
I've got a theory idea
Try to find out whether or not I shat myself watching Mandela Catalogue
Dude we need episodes of this. This series is absolutely amazing
Between you and Nick Nocturne, I feel like I understand this series better than some shows/movies that spell everything out
The point made at 13:29 could also back up the idea that intruder (6) and Gabriel are on opposite sides to an even further extent. In the context of Christianity, babies/children who are k1lled are considered inherently pure and are sent to heaven. With every new alternate Gabriel creates and every person that commits sewer slide (i/e the actual soul being sent to h3ll), he gains two ‘followers’. With every child 6 ‘captures’, he gains one ‘follower’ - smiting Gabriel in the process.
yeah maybe the intruder is actually trying to do good
that’s pretty mean how people are suffering of depression and they commit die and then they suffer even more by being turned into a tree

I found the faceless portrayal of Gabriel in volume 4 a lot more eerie than the depictions from earlier in the series. Like, imagine seeing that in live-action, just an angelic, faceless figure in the clouds silently surrounded by a dark, unholy aura.
Oh absolutely not, no wonder angels always gotta say "don't be afraid"
I just need to break my silence to say that at 4:21 the video paused without me realising and the fruits basket anime ending started to playing over the image from a separate tab and I spent the whole time thinking I was going insane
Ok the whole warped face gimmick doesn’t usually get me, but Gabriel is legit terrifying

Correction: O'Brien was Gabriel in disguise. Same voice actor, his voice even started to slip a bit into Gabriel when he told Dave to stay where he was.

OMG THE MANDELA CATALOGUE!
The best video I have seen from you since you're last video!
I love your videos! There all so cool. I'm really interested in what's happening in the mandella catalog. Since it has a bunch of religious elements, it reminded me of another CZcams series called "spooky month." Lots of spooky stuff in there that I think you would love to dig into!
That frame of Adam standing over Eve is one of the creepiest things to come out of this series
Fun fact: I was watching the 3rd Volume once, and when Stanley said to think of a friend, I actually thought of a friend that I would want.

8:40 But these two things aren't conflicting - they told people to fight back against alternates and now telling police dispatchers to not help callers. Those two facts are not a change of mind. It could be that government understands that it's pointless to try help people and they will just get their officers killed if they would help, and the first video was just to give people some advice and maybe put some hope that they can defend themselves against alternates. Or it could be that they intentionally told people to fight back against alternates (which is a bad idea, as the series clearly states) and then told police to not help for obvious reasons if they are being puppeted by alternates.
This is not even just analog horror anymore. This seems like such a cool idea for a book or tv show
If Gabriel is the first alternate... then the real question is
Who is he an alternate of?
Most likely the alternate of the Real Archangel Gabriel who told Mary that she would conceive Jesus in the Bible.
Himself. Gabriel is satan and alternates are just incarnations of himself.

I considered not publishing my theory but i think Adam IS the intruder. I know it wouldn't make sense but i still feel like that might be the case
That wouldn’t make sense at all because adam was abducted by the intruder. Unless the intruder is a time traveler I can’t see that happening. Though maybe unconsciously adam took over as the intruder when he grew older.
@@adammorin2955 I think the intruder being a time traveler is exactly the point as he would have knowledge of the kids who are to become the alternates. Thats also one of mat's points
Edit: Also if we think that adam and thereby the intruder being an alternate he would have knowledge beyond human comprehension which would theoretically (film theoretically) make it completely plausible.
@@Hylj3z I don’t see how he would be able to time travel though. I personally think the intruder just uses the Stanley program on tv to abduct the kids randomly so gabriel can’t get them as alternates for himself.
I feel like adam was a very special kid and alternate now. Since the intruder and gabriel both want him at any cost. I think adam might be the alternate that is more powerful then any other alternate for whatever reason and not cause of time travel but i can be wrong!
@@adammorin2955 i believe that the intruder and gabriel are not opposing forces at all, their powers actually work in tangent with each other. The intruder is able to take control of any screen, while gabriel is seemingly able to create alternates. This explains the stanley program as the intruder makes the children think of an imaginary character, then gabriel causes that character to be manifested as a real world alternate. Here's the cycle that I've thought up; the intruder causes children to think of an imaginary friend, then kidnaps the child, gabriel creates an alternate that takes the place of that child, that alternate grows up believing itself to be human until finally, it learns about the fact that it is an alternate and becomes the sort of alternate that we saw in vol. 333 until it copies to body of a human. THIS is why adam is special. Adam, as the intruder states in vol. 4, is not the real adam. He is one of the sleeper alternates that was planted in a human family. However, even after learning that he could be an alternate, he maintains his human form, seemingly because he "followed the shepherd", making him an extremely valuable asset, as he can become a sort of "second intruder", as he can corrupt others while maintaining the facade of being a human. This also explains the alternates in vol. 2. They were sent to make adam recognize that he is an alternate, adding an entirely new meaning to the line "wake up adam, do not make me wake the others."
If by Adam you mean the real Adam (who was kidnapped as a child), then that would mean that Adam would be stuck in a causality loop. The main problem with that is that there's no evidence to support that. If by Adam you mean his alternate, then that's impossible as it's been confirmed by Alex that The Intruder is not an alternate.
There also is a puzzle game called "do not believe his lies" witch you have to put in codes and then it makes a riddle called the "unforgivable riddle" it might be connected to this
I watch this and I'd love to see MatPat cover the Monument Mythos. There's plenty of room to theorize in that and it would be up a similar alley as this
Between MatPat and Wendigoon's theories I feel like we're all piecing together the story of the Mandela Catalogue for real! It's also really compelling to see the difference in what they both pick up on and focus on with the series
I feel like wowmans theory also help,his theories make very sense
Honestly, I don’t think Matpat has added much. There’s no real indication that Gabriel and the Intruder are opposed at all. Gabriel’s monologue to Dave in Vol. 4 suggests the opposite from how the implications it gives.
Happy to see after the announcement from game theory yesterday you guys are covering this again. Happy to see nothing changed.
That is so true tho, I was really afraid that he would change I am just glad this episode was as normal as some of the other ones❤

I have anxiety. this triggers it. It's 11:38 :)
Goodbye sleep. Lol
Thanks matpat!!! Love your content :)
You will be okay
New episodes always hypes me up
I don’t think the intruder is good, or even just an opposing force against the false Shepard, I just think he’s a stronger version of an alternate, i think he has a different use for the false Shepard, he steals children and turns them into alternates, creating more
Yeah exactly. Matpat is making the assumption that the intruder is somehow at conflict with the alternate forces. But I agree- the whole POINT is that he took Adam and replaced him with an alternate
Maybe there’s something we both missed but I think your theory is more obviously correct than matpat’s
@@PurgPurg But his theory...doesn't conflict with matpat's? Matpat is theorizing that the intruder has _his own_ force of alternates.
I don’t think MatPat ever implied the intruder was good. He was saying the god fight is evil (Satan) vs evil (the intruder).
It’s going to be Adam’s decision to hopefully reject both evil gods and fight for humanity.

You should watch Wendigoons videos on The Mandela Catalogue, its long but explains it in more detail
I just realized this and I'm surprised I didn't realize it before but basically Alternates are just varients (from the MCU) And Gabriel is like Kang the Conqueror kinda.
Stanley’s message reminds me a lot about tulpas, a sorta imaginary friend that’s said to be a magical creature that attains corporeal reality, having been originally merely imaginary. While they may seem like imaginary friends many believe they are much more powerful and you must be careful when interacting with them. Also if I recall Alex made a community post showing the different types of alternates though it seems to have been deleted. Unsure if it’s been archived at all
It's incredibly impressive that this guy (or guys? Maybe it's a group) would put all of this work into this project with a really solid story behind it that shows this has been planned out.
Personally I'm not into Horror, but I am always impressed by someone with vision who takes the time to do the work and get it done right. I hope this leads them to further success in their story telling and film making.
I can finally watch the Mandela catalog without getting nightmares for the next month. Thanks matpat
"how does it feel when a theory becomes a fact." is legit one of the hardest lines spoken.
Yeah it was, until Alex Kister (the creator of mandela catalogue) just publicly stated in an interview with Wendigoon that this theory is not correct
What if the intruder was actually protecting the kids from Gabriel so they won’t be replaced
Here is short

W theory
Great theory fr
He literally said that in the video.
intruder has killed people before
i feel like alternates are pretty much how every beginner artist's portrait art is like😂
as someone who struggles to draw human faces, i can confirm this is what my human drawings look like
@ScottAKAFrenchie.VIVELAFRANCE as someone who struggles to draw humans at all, I can confirm that alternates look way better than my """humans""".
"Stanley" reminds me visually of Limbo, AKA Nobody. I remember him from vintage Sesame Street, as animations of him were still being used when I watched it back in the '80s, but he existed before that.
I love how this aged better than the Mandela catalog did
they said that adam met gabriel and when he came back he wasnt the same, scaring eve. adam met the intruder and when he came back he wasnt the same, scaring evelin. he told her things she didnt want to know. just like adam did. holy crap that is such a good parallel alex is a genuis.

Boy SMT6 is looking pretty fire

Man Spore 2 is shaping up to be real good
You are so good at making me scared it’s daytime and I have the chills😂
10:51 so that’s where it came from
I like how Gabriel is named Gabriel after one of the archangels. He's a patron over radio broadcasters, messengers, and the likes. So it's sort of ironic that the intruder, who used to follow Gabriel, is using technology that the angel is a patron of.
Also, another series that I think is good for theories is the "Yellowjackets". It takes inspiration from som true events but also has supernatural elements as well the second season comes out in March.
Kind of upset we didn't get to hear much about Thatcher, he survived the encounter. Was a big example of the alternates taking form of someone in government, and he seems like one of the main protagonists alongside eve and Adam.
I’m interested in him, but his Kurt Cobain haircut distracts from the fear i think I would have gotten from his story. I have never seen a cop that looked like that
Oh my gosh, this keeps getting better and better
I feel like the Mendella Catalauge is just a universe where Lucifer overpowered God. It’s an amazing concept!
7:06 The figurine looks like Weird Al
Why did the doctor popping up scare me more than the shadow people?

they've answered one of your questions with M.A.D, its extremely important to the story, also, I believe before adam finished creating a perfect copy, his original face was the stretched out one you show at 14:50
is there no 4th option at the end that heaven and a "god" could get involved? Or is it straight aliens and the biblical stuff is just references to create a clear concise story?
I think the intruder is saving kids and teaching them how to beat an alternate.
This is how i imagine supernatural the universe would be like if Dean and Sam didn't exist
lol , another Supernatural fan! The world would be trashed without Sam and Dean
I mean, other hunters do exist
Two false gods fighting each other by influencing the minds of others and trying to win over a chosen being is such an interesting and cool theory
so isnt that just democracy
@@benjibenjo8938 American democracy. Other places don't accept just two possible candidates.
Alex Kister (the creator of mandela catalogue) just publicly stated in an interview with Wendigoon that this theory is not correct
@@VarietyArc Still a pretty cool one
"And the monkeys watch. They don't question. They sit. They consume."
me with a mouthful of mac'n'cheese: *Ay how the f-*
I think Gabriel is not actually an angel, but an original alternate that took on the identity of an angel. That’s why he’s described as the first alternate and is the leader of the hivemind
1:49 So Psychic Friend Fred bear didn't count as plushie lore?
Here is t short

Oh yeah...
Yeah but that was game theory

I just got into matpat's theories on the Mandela catalogue so this is my lucky day.

I hate these bots.
