It was very obvious to me that the Quiet Ghost's "I'm sorry" was his apology for conking her BF on the noggin and causing that immediate life-or-death situation. It was the red-headed not-step-father demon who was able to quote her POS father & what was done to him word-for-word.
I could not determine from the film whether the grandmother who owned the island was her father's mother or mother's mother. Unless I missed something, it's only a 50-50 chance his family had history with the island other than his marriage. Because it was her safe haven, that seems to make it less likely it is connected to his side of the family. Since there were 500 people at his funeral, that was obviously elsewhere. If it wasn't his family's island, why on earth would he end up trapped in the cabin?
Earlier in the flick, Quiet Ghost was obviously curious about and fond of her. That's apparent in the scene in which she wakes and he is lying on the bed facing her. Had it been her god-awful father, he would have been leering when she undressed, not staring at her while she slept.
If there was any connection to her father, I wonder if the nasty entity had whispered lewd things about the daughter to him, or might have possessed him. The demon could have been into her for much longer, causing him to follow her to the island. Tricking a trapped soul would have been a bonus.
If an escaped prisoner had hidden in the house before drowning trying to get away, being trapped in the cabin he hid in would seem like an appropriate form of purgatory for whatever crimes/sins he had committed. His age and attire would seem about right for that, too.
