According to hindustantimes.com, baneberries conspiracy theory goes viral after Matthew Perry's sudden death with many wondering whether he was crying for help with cryptic posts on Batman. The abrupt demise of a favourite celebrity, who was battling addiction, has left a myriad of questions unresolved. This void of answers has only fueled conspiracy theorists to connect the elusive dots surrounding the most pressing query: How did Matthew Perry die?

The conspiracy buffs are nitpicking every clue they can find. The reason behind the trigger was one of the videos shared by Matthew days before his death. He placed three berry shaped fruit on the table with a caption: 'This is what I've had to eat today. I'm Mattman.' 

In several Instagram posts he playfully compared himself to the fictional DC hero Batman. The actor's amalgamation of his first name and Batman seemed innocent until a conspiracy theorist claimed otherwise in a shocking X post.
