Phoebe is Immortal/Deathless

  • In one scene Phoebe appears as a Civil War-era nurse. This is stated to be her ancestor but that could easily be a cover story
  • On the subject of World War I, Phoebe states “We called it the Great War… and it was.” Nobody remarks on this being a joke, so it could easily be true.
  • Phoebe frequently claims to be communicating with ghosts and is even possessed at least once
  • Phoebe claims that each time she visits the dentist, someone dies. This could be because she is stealing their lifeforce, consciously or not

Monica is a Vampire

  • Monica prefers her environment to be extremely neat and tidy, just like a vampire.
  • Monica is never seen to use garlic in her cooking
  • There are no crucifixes or salt circles in Monica’s apartment
  • Monica is never seen to stand in direct sunlight

Rachel Lives the Double Life of a Night Vigilante

  • Rachel stays at a dead end job at a coffeeshop despite having no skill there or interest in her work. This is because the hours are convenient for her to be up all hours of the night.
  • The kevlar suit and utility belt seen in Rachel’s closet are never explained
  • Rachel is never seen in the same room as FRIENDSWOMAN, the vigilante character. In fact, FRIENDSWOMAN is often seen to dash into Rachel’s room only for Rachel to step out moments later, hair tousled
  • The sword and mask under Rachel’s bed are never explained

Ross is Joey

  • Outside of the credits sequence, the two characters are never seen in the same room as each other, although they often repeat what they have apparently been told by each other off-camera
  • Ross’s son Beb inherits Joey’s catchphrase “How are you???” and these are in fact his first and only words
  • Despite Joey being the actor, Ross has been shown to have quite a lot of skill in acting, such as the time he convinced everyone that he was actually metamorphosing into an end table

Chandler is a Time Traveler

  • Okay this is cheating since it’s not a fan-theory if it’s been confirmed by the show’s creators. Mack and Chep Friendsmith, the twin showrunners have confirmed in an interview that Chandler is in fact capable of travelling through time and space, explaining the easter egg “Background Chandlies” found by fans at least once in each episode.

Gunther is a Skull

  • This is pretty self-explanatory
