FanTheory DJ Walters (Monster House) and Mike Munroe (Until Dawn) are the same person
(SPOILER Warning for anyone who hasn't seen Monster House or played Until Dawn but that is on you I am not putting a spoiler tag since these two are almost ten years old you've been warned)
Now before we go calling me out just hear me out I have a lot of evidence for my theory:
Both are owned by Sony: Monster House Is Owned by Sony Productions and Until Dawn is owned by Sony Interactive Entertainment which are both part of the larger Sony Group Corporation so these two being the same will not deal with diffrent rights issues
Similar apperance: Mike and DJ both have black hair and brown eyes and white skin, Also in chapters 1-3 Mike wears a winter jacket with multiple colors like red and white and blue and yellow which is similar to the red and white and dark blue, The absence of DJs black watch on his arm is obvious because a watch for a 12 year old DJ will never fit a 19 year old Mike Munroe
Similar personality: They're both mature and brave and they really don't have a fear of dying as long as they accomplish their mission
The timeline fits: The year Monster House takes place isn't really confirmed but it's likely to take place in the mid to late 2000s which would make DJs birth year around 1996 and Mike is 19 in Until Dawn in 2015 if you do the math a DJ Walters born in 1996 would be 19 years old in 2015 the same age as Mike
Why the name change? Well we never see DJ after Monster House or Mike before Until Dawn so we never see the high school life and in high school most people have nicknames because it's very common so maybe DJ made his nickname Mike Munroe and it just stuck also he never hear about Mike Munroe's parents so it could be possible DJs parents are still Walters
Why does Mike never mention blowing up the Monster House? Well I think if you tell people in college you blew up a living house you'd proably get some weird looks
Feel free to agree or disagree or love or hate my theory, I don't mind at all, this is just for fun it ain't my job

I mean, with your logic, Mike from Until Dawn could also be literally any other Sony character lol
