''Cul-de-sac'' is an online fan theory regarding the animated series ''WesternAnimation/EdEddNEddy''. Much like other infamous fan theories, this theory posits that the characters from the series are actually deceased and that the titular Cul-de-sac they dwell in is actually Purgatory. The theory goes on to suggest that the characters each died in different time periods.
The theory can be read [[http://creepypasta.wikia.com/wiki/Cul-de-sac here]]. Not to be confused with the popular [[ComicStrip/CulDeSac comic strip of the same name]].
----
!!''Cul-de-sac'' provides examples of:
* TheEighties: Edd (Double D) grew up during the 1980s, explaining his fascination with science and technology.
* AbusiveParents: Kevin is believed to have had one in the form of his father who proceeded to give him a fatal NoHoldsBarredBeatdown when Kevin tried to stand up to him.
* AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence: Many see the events of ''[[WesternAnimation/EdEddNEddysBigPictureShow Big Picture Show]]'' as the kids finally moving on from the Cul-de-Sac.
* AssholeVictim: Eddy's brother ending up in Hell tends to be treated as well deserved.
* BittersweetEnding: In the revised version--with the exception of [[BigBrotherBully Eddy's brother]], all of the characters are [[DeathOfAChild children who died too soon]], but after spending so much time in Purgatory, they all ascend to Heaven, able to rest and move on at last. Meanwhile, Eddy's brother is dragged into Hell, where the Kanker Sisters (here depicted as demons rather than souls of the dead) proceed to make him suffer for his crimes.
* DarkFic: The theory suggests that each kid died in some way. Some of the deaths can easily be construed as gruesome, one example being Rolf having died because of being trampled to death by cattle.
* DeathOfAChild: When you get right down to it, the entire theory's premise is that most of the show's characters died as children.
* DiabolusExMachina: The theory implies that the Kankers being literal demons explains why they tend to do this in the show.
* DrivenToSuicide: One version of the theory has Jimmy commit suicide due to being bullied for his CampStraight personality [[DiesDifferentlyInAdaptation instead of him dying from leukemia]]. One can see it as a TakeThatAudience due to the amount of grief Jimmy is given by fans for the same thing.
* DyingAlone: Jimmy dies in his home after suffering from cancer.
* EarnYourHappyEnding: Or at least, Earn Your BittersweetEnding. When ''Big Picture Show'' is added to the mix, the story ends with the kids being allowed to ascend to Heaven at last, while [[BigBrotherBully Eddy's brother]] descends to Hell and is tortured by the Kanker Demons.
* FamilyUnfriendlyDeath: Many of the children of Peach Creek had faced brutal deaths.
* FreudianExcuse:
** According to the theory, Eddy is obsessed with money because his family lost everything in the Great Depression.
** Kevin's bullying and antisocial behavior are a result of parental abuse.
* GranolaGirl: Nazz was more like this when she was alive, which is implied to be because she had HippieParents.
* TheGreatDepression: Eddy was born around the time of the the Great Depression which explains his [[MoneyFetish obsession with getting money]] and his "restlessness" in the afterlife.
* {{Hell}}: Some revisions of the theory propose that Eddy's Brother was in Hell whenever fanfiction writers try to adjust the theory for the inclusion of the [[WesternAnimation/EdEddNEddysBigPictureShow TV movie]].
* KarmaHoudini:
** The serial killer who targeted Nazz didn't get any comeuppance for it, though in some revisions to the theory, he was arrested a few days later and ultimately executed.
** Likewise, the original version of the theory made no mention of Kevin's father being punished for killing his own son, though some revisions state that [[AdaptationalKarma he went to prison]] and was eventually killed by one or more of his fellow inmates.
* LittlestCancerPatient:
** Jimmy is described in some versions of the theory as a child who died of cancer in 2000.
** Johnny dies in 1922 after a long battle with tuberculosis.
* ObfuscatingStupidity: Nazz pretended to be dumb as a way with coping from the trauma she sustained from her untimely demise. Ed also did something similar; however, it apparently worked too well as he gradually shut everything out of his life.
* OffingTheOffspring: Kevin met his end when he was beaten to death by his own father.
* OurDemonsAreDifferent: Considering the Kanker Sisters are demons, it seems as if demons can visit Purgatory in this universe.
* SerialKiller: A serial killer allegedly broke into Nazz's house at the dead of night and [[RapeIsASpecialKindOfEvil raped her]] before murdering her and her entire family.
* TerribleTrio: The Kanker Sisters are [[AdaptationSpeciesChange interpreted as demons]] who torment the kids, rather than dead children themselves. In revisions that add ''Big Picture Show'' to the mix, they switch to torturing Eddy's brother after the kids ascend to Heaven.
* WouldHurtAChild:
** The unnamed serial killer who murdered Nazz and her entire family.
** Also Kevin's Dad, though debatably unintentionally as he was drunk at the time.
