* MaybeMagicMaybeMundane: It is unclear whether [[spoiler:Libby, Trish and Dee Dee are Peter's hallucinations, or his real wife and children living in the afterlife.]] In fact, the film provides evidence for both version, and it's a major part of the plot. However, the end gives us a pretty solid Blink-And-You'll-Miss-It that gives it away: [[spoiler: Libby is able to brush past the chimes on her way up the stairs and divert attention away from Peter. It's the only scene where she interacts with a physical object in front of anyone but him or their children.]]

However, in almost every other shot, the house is completely dark and Libby is nowhere to be found, implying the foreshadowing of their deaths.]]
