    The sound is alarming! From the water drops to the loud slam of the books falling, the screams, etc. I believe there were at least two entities. One of them seemed helpful, probably trapped in there too, trying to warn the woman. On the other hand, there was an evil woman, possibly the owner of the estate? Did she drown in her bathtub? (That's maybe why we hear the water at the beginning?) The young woman in the painting over the cabinet? I like the purple lighting beneath it to bring out her dress. She's often in the frame, so It's like you're discreetly letting the audience know it's a special artwork. Or maybe she's the helpful spirit and loves purple - because the notes are written in purple ink. The Gatsby book had a light purple cover too. This is probably a big reach, but the silhouette appeared to have a similar hairstyle as the painting. :p Maybe it was just one wicked entity teasing her with the notes, knowing she wouldn't let her leave at any time.
    I would've run out of there after the first book fell. That's enough for me! Haha. The creepiness was effectively conveyed without resorting to gore. It was all about the disturbing sounds and echoes. The exterior shot that pans up at 3:15 might clue us in that something awful happened on the top floor. This short reminded me of the "Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark" books, where the creature/ghost gets closer and closer… and closer! - until the last sentence. I really enjoyed it! Also, I adore older music at the beginning and end; what is the name of the song you used? I like it!

      Wow.. loved your interpretation. I like movies which leave room for the viewers to use their artistic imagination and express their version. Your point of view got me thinking and I am going to re-watch now as I feel I missed a few things that you pointed out ❤

      Thank you for such a brilliant analysis of the film, I loved reading every single word of it. I am pinning this so that whenever I revisit this video, I see this comment first and get inspired. Yes I was trying to play with the idea of two entities one who tries to warn her and the other the dark sinister one which we see at the end. The woman in the painting over the cabinet was something that really intrigued me when I was shooting but did not necessarily think about tying her up with the lady in black, but now that you say it, it is such a nice idea 😀 . The purple light was a led tube light that I placed there since the color really complimented the tone and hence I went with that particular color. The exterior pan shot was an indication of something sinister coming down to the library as that shot is followed by the last book falling from the top of the shelf. I ideally wanted this shot to be pan down but that shot was ruined and I realised that in the edit so I went with the reverse shot 😀. I took a look at the silhoutte and her hairstyle is a bit similar but that is purely coincidental and eerie (you have a great eye 😀😃).At the end the when the door slams shut the sounds you hear are mostly the flipping of book pages and books falling down as I tried to keep the sounds as minimal and ambient as possible unless needed. Thank you once again for watching and loved reading such a lovely comment, it really made me see this movie from an even interesting perspective ❤️The song name is A life like this by River Lume, it is a great catchy song 🙂
