The Amazing Jeckel Brothers:

The Amazing Jeckel Brothers are Jake and Jack Jeckel. Jake is good, and cares for the well-being of people, while Jack is sinister and evil. When you die these two spirits juggle your sins. For each sin you committed in your life, a ball is added to their juggling act, making it harder for them to perform. If they drop a ball you go to Hell, if not, you will enter into Shangri-La. To make matters worse, Jack is trying to mess Jake up, just for the fun of it.

The Wraith: Shangri-La:

The 6th Joker's Card (part #1)

Revealed as of November 5, 2002

The Wraith exists in shadow and earth, Heaven and Hell, life and death. He is the final vision that we must all face upon our death, for he is the Grim Reaper; the one who carries us to our final destination in the afterlife. Shangri-La is heaven, for those who lived righteous lives, be them rich or poor, successful or not. Those who go to Shangri-La are the people who followed their heart. Juggalettes/Juggalos are all destined to go to Shangri-La.

The Wraith: Hell's Pit

The 6th Joker's Card (part #2)

Revealing August 31, 2004

Rumored to be the most ruthless album ICP has released, intending to be a glimpse of Hell, and all its horrors. Everyone who has been evil, judgmental, and selfish will go to Hell's Pit. These messages are pretty much aimed for the rest of the world, not the Juggalettes/Juggalos.

Answer 2

* The Carnival of Carnage is representation of the ghettos and the carnage that is within them. ICP takes this into a traveling "carnival" which shares the carnage from the inner cities with the rest of the world. The Carnival of Carnage is the actual Entity of the Dark Carnival.[5] * The Ringmaster is the overseer of the Carnival. He oversees your entire life and decides whether you are worthy to enter Shangri-La or doomed to eternal hell.[6] * The Riddle Box represents the mystery of life and also on the record talks about "living dead" as reference of what life could be like.[7] * The Great Milenko is a Necromancer and Illusionist who tries to trick individuals into greed and other such sins. He takes out the worst in an individual and you must be able to fight his magic in order to make it to Shangri-La. This record was the first in the track "Pass Me By" to give a big hint of the story to come.[8] * The Amazing Jeckel Brothers Jack Jeckel and Jake Jeckel. Jake is the good brother of the two and he tries to juggle the sins of an individual, each sin represented by a flaming ball and for every sin he must juggle another ball while his wicked brother Jack tries to make him slip up. If your sins are too heavy, Jake will drop the flaming balls and you will not go to Shangri-La.[9] * The Wraith is, simply put, the grim reaper. This Joker's Card is represented by two exhibits, Shangri-La and Hell's Pit. It is unveiled that the Carnival is "God" and it's what has been the message the entire time. It also speaks of a Witch (Satan) that brings wickedness to the world hoping to take individuals to Hell's Pit

Answer 3

Its all personal interpretation, but they are the six figures of the dark carnival, similar to parts of Dante's inferno,

Purgatory the carnival of carnage where souls mingle with others and stay while they wait to be judged.

the ringmaster- controls the events and where people go

the riddle box - when you die depending on you life you may meet him, and you turn the crank if you were right and just in you life you go to shangri-la, if not you fall trough the floor to hell's pit

the great melinko-a necromancer sent to earth to try and keep you on the wrong path, and send you to hells pit

the amazing jeckel brothers -t he juggle the souls of many if they drop a ball then to hell's pit you go.

The Wraith- Essentially the grim reaper he comes to take you to either hells pit, or to shangri-la
