A life of nowhere

The movie was fascinated by the English castle from the very beginning. Although I knew from the beginning that the house was an important prop for creating a terrifying atmosphere (there was no accident that horror was born there), but gradually I learned that the house is still a life where ghosts have nowhere to be placed, and it is also his family and his. Lovers and even all the people who come to that house have nowhere to put their lives.
At first, I didn't know what kind of connection the old hostess of the house made to the hostess and the almost hopeless sorry I said before leaving. When the fire and the little girl died, some clues were revealed. Taking into account the issue of the release in China at the same time, all kinds of weird things about the puppet, the clues began to become clear from here. The first half of the movie creates an atmosphere, and the second half sorts out the plot, which makes people very comfortable and does not escape. Although the first half of the heroine's dreams are a little weak (Could it be possible to use Freud's psychoanalysis? She looks at the photos too long during the day? Subconsciously thinks that the doll has any connection with the photos?).
The boy in the fire was a weirdo, as did his old father. There is no doubt that old couples love their sons, but the love they are asked to give is really abnormal, and the old couples can't bear it. That's not normal life. Family and love have imprisoned them like this for more than 20 years. The personnel and affairs in that house cannot be abandoned. It is love and responsibility, but not the life they should have, so they chose to die.
The heroine appeared in the house to escape her original life and pursue a new life. She thought she could start over, but she didn't want to fall into another abnormal life. Of course she wanted to run away, it didn't belong to her in the first place. At this time, the man who delivered the food appeared, and that was the hope of taking her out and her hope of escaping such a life. But love always suffers a little bit, and she has to get rid of the two perverted loves that entangle her. In the end, Ben escaped, and she came back to end it with her own hands, and found what should have been her life (rescue the little brother who sent vegetables).
In the end, the doll was repaired again, and I don't know how many people's lives it will kidnap. But one thing is certain, he can't get out of this life.
