Three things you can expect in every Flanagan series: 1. Christianity painted in a negative light, 2. Gay love, 3. Major plot holes
Spoiler alert
For the plot holes- who the heck were the old people some of them would see? Why did Ivonka and other guy keep shifting through time? Who or what was the shadow creature seen by many? Why was the headmaster not willing to heal others if she was a paragon member?
How is this the same dude that wrote โHaunting of Hillhouseโ? That was a masterpiece. This garbage is seriously like the author was under a deadline so instead of creating a true legendary work of art like heโs capable of, he throws together a bunch of teens telling different ghost stories that have little to no bearing on their reality. The message of the film was โCancer sucks and no one can change it so enjoy your lifeโ. Itโs quite admirable but doesnโt make for great horror suspense material.
Please give this man more time to develop his story like we all know he can.
