Can someone explain the ending


Who did what and who was the ghost and what was the spell for and what happened to Allison or Abby or whatever her name is at the end

Very well done!

TY for that amazing explanation

That was beyond helpful. Too bad the filmmakers didn't do a better job of telling the story.

reply

Actually it doesn't explain how Daniel got in trouble for stalking her. She must have reported him, yes? Why didn't she interact with him online and encourage him to approach her if that's what she wanted? Still doesn't make sense.

reply

Her parents may have reported it, or his parents if they thought he was too obsessed.

reply

Why Daniel and Mona didn't get together instead of stalking each other really isn't integral to this part of the story, only really the fact that he's on house arrest, contributing to that "trapped with a ghost" situation, adding anxiety to the story.

reply

I think getting him on house arrest was somehow apart of her elaborate plan. Anyway Mona put the first spell on Daniel so he would be obsessed with her but he didn't go through with actually talking with her. So instead of doing what normal people do, she did a second spell to "join them together" or whatever they said in the movie. I think she got both Daniel and Abby to do the steps in case one failed. I still don't understand when exactly Mona possessed Abby???

reply

There's still a couple holes there that maybe a sequel could wrap up... ;)

1. The probation officer must have known something, because he found Mona's secret stalker room. We just didn't see what he did after discovering the door until the final scene.
2. Post credits, the camera pans out along the breadth of the officer's car, while another car drives past, and you can hear a baby cry. It's literally all of 1.5 seconds, but at the very close of the film before it cuts to black.

That is what I want to see explained.

reply

In answer to #2, that's not a baby crying. That was Daniel in the back of Abby's truck, screaming through his taped mouth.

reply

How is she going to keep him alive? Judging by how much blood was on the floor after Daniel lost his leg, he's going to bleed out VERY quickly unless she has something to close the wound up, and even then he's probably looking at a very nasty infection that's going to either spread or kill him outright.

She could have cut the tag off, less work then the leg ;-)

That would've alerted the authorities.

I think the cop did know at that point and was coming to tell Daniel he believed him or something...
