House of 1000 Corpses family tree???
 
I'm gonna start a whole new thread for this b/c I am supremely interesting in what everyone thinks. What is the structure of the Firefly clan in House of 1000 Corpses????

Here's my thoughts:

Okay, I think Grandpa is the patriarch and he fathered either Mother Firefly or Earl/The Professor. I think perhaps that he also sired Otis b/c Otis is clearly the head of the family. I feel like Otis is perhaps Baby's, Tiny's, and RJ's Uncle b/c of the way they all look up to him. Baby, Tiny, and RJ are the children of Mother Firefly and Earl (along with some of the kids that didn't make it and now reside in jars). Capt. Spaulding is a friend of the family. So, where does Dr. Satan fit in? Are they related to him at all? Opinions wanted.

I don't think Dr.Satan is related to them but I think he helped out earl by giving him that weird suit thing. Earl might have had a disease so Dr.Satan thought he might be able to help him out so in return Earl now helps out Dr.Satan.

Early on in the film, Cap. Spaulding mentions that Dr. Satan was trying to create a super-soldier. I think Earl was his first success.

The way I am seeing it is like this, We all know who grandpa Hugo is, Mother Firefly is mother to Baby, RJ, Tiny and I think Otis. I say that because I thought Baby said that her brother was upstairs meaning Otis. I think that Capn Spaulding is Mother Fireflys brother. The professor may fit in as the father?? Mother Firefly said that Daddy burned Tiny at one time, that is why he looks that way. And if i remember correctly that MF said that the father was dead, perhaps meaning a Zombie? I think in some twisted way Dr Satan is related but am not sure how, I would think that he may even be the father hence why the family would follow him into the insanity that is going on. But then that leaves the professor who may be the superhuman cration of Dr Satan.

Didn't mother Firefly say that Earl/The Professor was the one who burned Tiny, and he was his father?

Yes, and it showed it in a flashback.
