Well, this isn't exactly creepy, but...

What if Super Mario Bros. is a direct sequel to Mario Bros? Mario and Luigi get sucked down a strange pipe during one of thier plumbing jobs and wind up in the Mushroom Kingdom. It helps that I watched The Super Mario Bros. Super Show as a kid and it was the backstory there, too. I never did like the "Mario and Luigi were born in the Mushroom Kingdom" retcon.
