I'm glad it didn't have a jump scare. With the build-up of this movie, I'd have a jump death.

Missed the time you could see the "mother" staring at her in the closet mirror and the white shadow creeping

I'm watching this mainly because I hope it will make me stop thinking about the movie

Holy shit, I am never watching that movie. This type of unrelenting, inescapable horror fucks me right up. Thanks for your service, I'm glad it's still light out.

I love how step one of a haunting is always home maintenance - checking the lighting, running faucets, maybe creaking a few doors to check what needs oiling ... and then step two is elder abuse.

I was not prepared for you to play the audio of the laugh 💀

One of the best subtle scares for me is when Evie is looking at the light in the closet and we can see that the mom is like looking at her. It made me yelp a little haha.

Duuude! You forgot to mention the bit where after Evy puts the statute in the closet... as she closes the door we see a reflection in the full length mirror of her mother standing in front of the mirror on the dresser!!!😮 Also...i COMPLETELY MISSED the bit where her mom sits up and looks at her! Dammit! Lol

When Amanda explained the usage of technology to catch the demons my first thought was that the adapt to use technology. THE DEMONS CAN CONVERT TO PDF???

My lights started flickering when I was watching this in my kitchen while having a midnight snack so I’ve come back to finish the video the next morning

The movie gave me Shane Dawson conspiracy theory video vibes from the old days

my friend and i aren't usually sensitive to horror movies, but we saw this in theaters and we both had to sleep with the lights on. this movie is soooo good but so scary, and it does a good job at making you feel on edge and uncomfortable

I was so pleasantly surprised by this movie. I started to get antsy halfway through realizing that we were probably never going to leave the house. Did anyone else hope that Justin would make an appearance?

I was pretty sure that the mother was dead the entire time for two reasons 1. The nurse who visits mid-film is never shown to the audience. As if it was a private hallucination only the main character was experiencing 2. The bed was perfectly made at the end. Too perfect. Sheets tightly pressed as though no one had been in or out of it in a long time. I think Abazu was using the image of the mother as a way to keep our main character in the house

bro it's unsettling, I prefer this tone more than jumpscares or gore, after all the true horror is forever unseen

This is basically a cognito-hazard from SCP. The idea that you are safe simply because you don't know about it and are doomed when you do is a cool concept.

The movie name is perfect when the almost constant Underlying audio Tones in the movie are the most unsettling thing in it. The constant subtle sounds make my skin crawl and gives me goose bumps.
