Confused about the ending.


And when I saY ENDING i MEAN THE very END WHEN THE little girl is embraced by her father and gives her dad
's new wife a sort of (murderous?) look? I know she killed Ellie, but did possessing the mask give her a desire to be with her father like Ellie wanted to?

It certainly implied so, although the degree of her desire would depend on why she decided to kill Ellie, could it because she was closer to her mother, so she did it to revenge her mother's death? Could it because Ellie had become obvious the puppet master in the house after she forced his father to leave the new wife? In any case and no matter how wicked she was, the fact that her father was the only loved one she had pretty much ensured that if not now, sooner or later, she would want to be the one and only in her father's life, weak willed as her father was, he would probably let his younger daughter walk all over him like his older daughter did. Although given her relative young age and relative immaturity, both physically and emotionally, she probably would not be able to seduce her father into sexual relationship.

Hope for the best,plan for the worst,enjoy the rest
