coincidence or necessity

As a horror film, the whole film is not particularly scary, the only scary place is probably the hood of the deformed boy. As his mother, if he changed the little boy into a better-looking headgear, the child would not be bullied like this.

For Simon's death, there can be two interpretations, one is an accident under various coincidences, and the other is an inevitable result caused by the games of the little ghosts. Do the ghost children in the movie really exist? It may also be Simon's own fantasy. The child discovers the secret room in the house by himself, fantasizes about his friend, and then gets trapped in it because of his mother's inadvertent. Of course, because the little ghosts played games and hid the heroine's favorite thing (Simon), but because the heroine found it too late, it is also a possibility that the child died.

    I still don’t call on Spanish horror movies, the atmosphere is good, the story is average, and the ending is not too surprising.

    The cause of Simon's death is really...Then can I infer that there are no ghosts at all, and Simon just accidentally discovered Thomas' small room and the stories between other children and Thomas?
