Psychological Horror, just not scary
9 October 2023
Warning: Spoilers
Trigger Warning: Suicide

First, never has a full cast death ever been so desired.

Dad leaves wife for a younger woman (Grace).

Mom offs herself because she can't handle it and decides sticking around for her kids doesn't matter.

Dad leaves kids with Grace for Christmas at their cabin 6 hours away and gives her the password to the gun.

Grace has childhood religious trauma from her dad being a suicide cult leader but has pills to help regulate herself.

Kids research this info and draw up an elaborate plan to get Grace to kill herself by making her think she's stuck in pergatory.

The son is a nasty little pervert who likes to peep on Grace in the shower.

Daughter kills Grace's dog.

Kids hide her pills and all of the stuff in the house to convince her it's pergatory.

Grace has a psychotic break. Prays. Repents. Violent penance.

The world is a better place without the kids. Trust.
