i think those are all good theories! hopefully sylvia day will write the reasons behind why nathan is such a vile sicko. thanks to everyone who replied! 

I guess this is kind of unrelated to questions above... but I've always wondered. Why did Nathan want to blackmail Gideon and Stanton with videos/pics of Eva (besides for money)? And why was he stalking her? (is there a motive besides he's crazy?) Any replies will be great, so thanks  

I think Nathan hated it Eva since childhood. She was the daughter of the stepmom, or she had a mother and Nathan didn't, or Nathan's father wasn't around much and when he was gave Eva and her mother more attention. So, I think the jealousy became hate, and then it lead to the abuse. Of course that that doesn't make Nathan less sick than he is, but it could be reasons for the hate. Then, Eva told her mother what was going on, Nathan lost the father that he didn't have, so he needed to blame someone, and Eva was the one to blame, so he followed her, got pic and videos of her misbehaving and use to blackmail her mother, but he was going to hate Eva either way, his father was happy when he died, so he didn't care much about Nathan. I do believe that he did have pic, and trash of Eva in this apt and was planning to hurt her more.

Sylvia-

Was Nathan really planning to kill Eva someday (based on the evidence the detective said they'd found in his room) ? And if so, why? Or will these questions be answered in EWY?
