although i doubt that this theory will end up being true, i’ve always loved the idea of the antler queen being some kind of supernatural entity/mass hallucination shared by the girls at the height of their insanity in the wilderness. what i mean by this is not that they’re all literally seeing this figure, but that they all feel its presence and worship it like a god. they offer pieces of their hair to it so they can keep it happy, in exchange for blessing or protection. their shared belief in the wilderness as a concept keeps them grounded out there, and maybe it manifests in the form of the “antler queen”
of course, this conflicts with what direction the show is going in, though. the draw of the queen card coupled with natalie being referred to as “my queen” by shauna implies that the antler queen will likely end up being a person (my bets are on shauna if we’re being realistic), but that doesn’t necessarily mean it has to be a living person. the girls who have already died out there haunt the narrative, with jackie in particular being honored as a “guide” by lottie in 3x01. in many ways, her death represented the loss of any remnants of civilization the girls had left in them, and her haunting them represents the mark the wilderness left and continued to leave on them
all that is to say, if the antler queen does end up being a supernatural being (or a mass hallucination that they interpret as being a supernatural being), i want it to be jackie. i want her character to come full circle; from being assigned the role of leader, to being dethroned as they descended into the throes of the wilderness, to becoming their leader yet again in death. i want her to serve as a symbol for what they’ve lost and what they eventually become, an ever-present reminder of the horrors they partook in. i want her to enact one last form of revenge by guiding them into further derangement, just to disappear when they need her most. i want jackie taylor to be the antler queen
i doubt she will be. but it would be so fucking cool if she was

Sometimes, if you’re lucky, there will be a tree outside your bedroom window. It is very important to romanticize this tree as much as possible.
