Part 7/9:
As the film progresses, the narrative makes a swift turn into sheer terror. The family faces physical manifestations of the malevolent forces, and the mystical incursions blend with frantic parenting as the boundary between the real world and the supernatural blurs. A chaotic sequence sees the haunting resurrect itself through rituals gone awry, leading to Steven encountering phantoms of the past. The recurring theme of counting becomes increasingly sinister, evoking both a game and a countdown to certain doom.
