is Weaver supposed to be some version of Baron Samedi? She owned the television that initially brought Conway to the Zero, and if the afterlife thing is correct, that means she must have some connection with it. I presume Conway is murdered in the train station? If you try to look him up on the computer at the beginning, it tells you he doesn't exist, so was he dead all along, and just clinging onto life? That could explain why he gradually turns into a skeleton throughout the game, but I assumed that just represented that his arm and leg hurt. I suppose the shadowy figures could be spirits or something as well? Is The Zero supposed to be some kind of afterlife? That would explain the giant glowing skeletons, the mention of Lethe, the WEVP-TV employee's mention of 'ghosts in between channels', and the religious themes, at least. Then someone tells you about a cosmic entity, they bury a horse, a bunch of shadowy figures appear, and the game ends. Conway dissapears halfway through the second-to-last chapter, and when his friends finally find Dogwood, the whole town it's in has been flooded. He spends the rest of the game trying to find said adress, together with a group of random people that join him on his quest. So, as far as I understand, 'Kentucky Route Zero' is about a delivery driver named Conway who stumbles upon an alternate dimension while trying to find '5 Dogwood drive', an adress that has ordered a bunch of furniture from an antique shop that his partner(?) runs.
