These two nameless Bullies are the overarching antagonists of Monster House.
They were two young boys who harass Horace Nebbercracker and his wife Constance by throwing eggs at their house while it was being constructed, eventually causing Constance to snap and tried to chase them with an axe resulting in her death. This makes them (indirectly) responsible for Constance Nebbercracker becoming a monster house and thus the whole plot of the movie. They were voiced by Erik Walker and Matthew Fahey.
What makes them Hate Sinks?[]
- As stated before, they threw eggs at the Nebbercracker house while it was still under construction just because they can. When Constance tried to stop them, they proceeded to throw eggs at her (while her husband was trying to calm her down no less), while also cruelly laughing at her.
- The two would continue to throw eggs, causing Constance to snap and making her tried to chase them with an axe, she ended up stumbling and falling to her death, with her spirit taking possession of the house, making the bullies indirectly responsible for causing the main events of the story to take place.
- One of the bullies was shown later on biking around delivering newspapers by throwing them at houses. He showed no sadness or remorse upon seeing the now finished house of the woman he and his friend got killed.
- While the one bully got hit in the face with a newspaper hard enough to knock him off his bike, this is too minor to be considered a proper punishment for getting a woman killed. His friend gets no onscreen karma at all.
- They not only caused Constance's death, but also caused Horace Nebbercracker decades of suffering, as he was forced to become a nasty recluse to keep Constance from eating people. This led to him terrorizing children and stealing their belongings for many years. In essence, they are responsible for all the conflict in the movie.
- Adding to that, they probably wanted to avoid accepting the blame, they spread the rumor that it was the man who ate the one who was their love, and she had already suffered before that event.
- I would have liked the house to eat them as it should have done with other naughty children on Halloween, or in the movie there would have been a confrontation between them and the main characters because of what happened.
