On how to capture some noise and movement outside the bedroom, the actor Michael Slott provided a lot of professional advice, because when he was in college, he was a cameraman on the school TV station, and sometimes Oren Perry even I had to ask him about the use of the camera, such as whether the mirror should be turned off.

The director decided to use this method of photography, that is, he decided to give up the usual horror movies such as quick cuts and big specials. He had the courage to try, and the sense of reality was very strong, but he was not frightened too much. There are all kinds of horses in the trailer. . . And I watched the ending of the police version, which is not ideal.

Micah: Well, basically it could be two things: it could be a ghost...
[mock whisper]
Micah: or it could be a demon.
Katie: Dr. Fredrichs said that it wasn't a ghost.
Micah: Well, I've been going by the evidence and I'm doin' my research and I'm going to find out what it is.
Katie: Well, whatever it is that's following me, it doesn't feel... it doesn't feel human. It feels like it's... it feels like a monster. I mean like, it wants to hurt me.
Micah: Well that sounds like, actually like a demon.
Katie: Yeah, that's what he said.
Micah: Well, 'cause ghosts are spirits of human beings.
Katie: Yeah, it's definitely not human.
Micah: Then maybe you're right, which is bad 'cause demons suck.
