Can someone explain who and/or what is the red monster in this VN!?

Is the monster that hit the car and the one in the mine, the same as the red monster (are they all the same monster or different monsters)?

I've played all routes multiple times and i have some theory's but I'd like some confirmation. Like i think flynn is the red monster because of his ending. And the red monster can bend space-time to some extant. 

Its hard to tell. I think the one in the mine is the same, its described differently because when they made that scene, they didn't have artwork for it yet.

There are other monsters in Echo, but the red sockface appears the most. And yes Flynn is the monster.

there is one last question i forgot to put there; Was chase, samuel or the hum (while controlling chase's body) that killed sydney? Like, the time he killed Flynn there was a moment where he wasnt in control anymore. Was that samuel or the hum making him lose it in Tj's route. That conversation in the bathroom is what makes me question it.

thanks for the confirmation btw. This has been in my mind for some time now. I wanted to go into Arches without any doughts, so its nice to get all those questions out of the way. Thanks again

It appeared to me to be a combination of Chase hating Sydney and being influenced by the entity he spoke to in the mirror
I believe  it influenced him to kill Sydney in the same way it did Flynn

The red monster is Flynn. Specifically Flynn from his route. The idea is that basically at the end of Flynn's route he became one with the Tide, which is basically the pattern in how the hysteria works. Tide rolls in when some kind of murder happens, rolls out when the hysteria is over. Notice how Flynn at the end of his route is showing up at specifically negative moments in character's past. He was in Jennas closet when hiding from her abusive father etc. Basically, the monster shows up when any sort of negative action occurs. Its a problem specific to the town for some presently unexplained reason, but there are theories. The monster isnt bending space time, space time is bending him. Every time the tide rolls out a piece of him is taken, not just mentally. Thats why the monster looks like beef jerky, he's being taken apart peice by peice until he is nothing, one with the tide. The monster in all routes is flynn from his route as the tide covers all routes simultaneously. To summarize, Flynn turns into the monster and then is dragged into other routes throughout different periods of time.

wow thanks, thats a really good explanation but what about the bleeding monster from the road and the heart monster from the mine? Are they pieces of flynn; other people like Flynn; or just monsters?
