History WMG / TheSixthSense

[[WMG: The movie is really a horror/mystery remake of either {{North}} or DropDeadFred]]

Her husband was a pretty okay guy, but she had emotional problems and was paranoid, suspecting him of cheating. She slit her wrists out of anger and jealousy, and the bruise on her face is from hitting herself on a hard surface after she collapsed from bloodloss.
* The last thing she would have remembered in life was the pain of whacking her head on the bathroom sink as she fell regreting her decesion. Hence the bruise forever wounds her psyche so it is part of her ghost.

[[WMG: Haley Joel Osment Killed Bruce Willis]]
How is this possible? Here is how: Haley Joel Osment sees dead people. Bruce Willis is one of them. When Hayley Joel Osment sees these dead people, they are from all different times. Hundreds of years ago even. They're not just people who have recently died. So, if ghosts can travel into the future and reveal themselves to Haley, what's to say they can't travel back in time? The opening scene of the movie shows Bruce being shot by one of his patients. The patient says “Do you know why you're afraid when you're alone? I do.” You find out later that he was referring to ghosts being present. Then, after he shoots Bruce, Bruce finds another patient with an eerily similar condition: He can also see ghosts. Coincidence? I think not. Here's what really happened. Bruce Willis tried to help Haley, Haley couldn't be helped, so he went crazy and shot Bruce. The ghost of Bruce then traveled back in time to BEFORE he tried to help Haley. At this point in time, Bruce and his wife are separated, which is why she is depressed and thinking of seeing another man.

So there you have it. Bruce tries to help Haley, Haley kills him, Bruce-Ghost travels back in time and tries to help again, only to realize that he is dead.

* What if it's not that Ghost Bruce Willis traveled through time but rather that HJO is both a medium AND pre-cog medium, meaning he can communicate with, channel and summon ghosts from his own future. So he communicates with the ghost of a man he will kill in the future.
* No time travel needed. It's established that ghosts see what the want to see. Both HJO and Crowe wanted to see that they were alive, so they both created this mutual world where Crowe was taking care of HJO's problem. HJO lives with his mom (who may also be dead) and Crowe haunts the basement of his own house. Everyone sese what they want, and Crowe's wife goes on with her life. BTW, it may also be that there are other ghosts watching Crowe, HJO, the mother and the wife and seeing what they want, too. They would be the audience.

*** It's kind of odd that they both see the same psychiatrist.

[[WMG: The movie takes place in the same universe as GunnerkriggCourt.]]

The taunted and teased him and drove him crazy ''specifically'' to kill Crowe. It was all a gambit to get a psychologist onto the other side because the living psychologists weren't helping the people with the ability to help the dead move on. They were driving people with the gift ''away'' from helping the dead move on through medication and/or ignoring the gift.

FridgeHorror of the worst class, you know. All the other ghosts Cole sees had unpleasant and violent deaths (hanging, poisoning, shooting by accident, car crashes), so why does he see his grandmother? Well, because she was murdered or something like that.

Cole doesn't exist (or, at least not the way Crowe perceives him). The whole thing was something Crowe needed to do to redeem himself, sort of like how he, as a ghost has to pass on. Perhaps his original patient did not really see ghosts and was just hopelessly mentally ill, but Crowe could not reconcile that and his mind or agents of the afterlife created this scenario for him.

* Nope, he's definitely dead. He actually did get shot, and remember his wife saying "Oh why did you have to leave me?"? Why would she say that if he was standing next to him, while totally ignoring everything else he says?"
** CONTINUITY NAZI!
*** Try it this way: Crowe did get shot, but he survived. It's not like he got shot in the heart, there's a chance he could have lived. So now it's next year, and his career is ruined because word gets out about his former patient going psychotic. He's obsessed with redeeming himself, and he secretly "helps" Cole despite his license being revoked. His wife hates him for ignoring her in favor of Cole (forgetting his anniversary etc.) All the original interpretations of her scenes were correct. He so much wants to help Cole and to believe his wife loves him, but the only way to do so is to buy into Cole's hallucinations, even though they are only hallucinations. Soon he starts hallucinating too, at first "hearing" the ghost on the tape (a conveinent explanation that relieves him of guilt for failing with the other boy, and shows him how to redeem himself with Cole) and then at the end believing himself to be dead. When his wife says "Why did you leave me?" she's referring to him abandoning her in favor of his crazy belief in ghosts and obsessing over Cole. She's watching their wedding video to remember happier times. He can't face that, just like he can't face failure with the other boy or Cole, so the rest of the scene is his hallucination. She has his wedding ring because he forgot it, being selfish and obsessed, and she's throwing it on the floor in disgust.]]*

Cole is a medium or guide in training.

Her husband was a pretty okay guy, but she had emotional problems and was paranoid, suspecting him of cheating. She slit her wrists out of anger and jealousy, and the bruise on her face is from hitting herself on a hard surface after she collapsed from bloodloss.

She goes to Cole to enlist his help in telling her dad how she died. The only explanation I can think of for her awareness was that she saw ghosts while she was alive, and that grants you awareness as a ghost. It also provides a motive for why her mother killed her: StepfordSmiler Mommy couldn't stand having a little girl who was so... ''different.''

** It's actually a remake of a story from [[AreYouAfraidOfTheDark Are you Afraid of the Dark?]] no...seriously

2. With Drop Dead Fred, it's the same story, but without the Willis connection and more of a [[TheNostalgiaCritic horror movie style]] to it to begin with.

* In any case, Bruce Willis's character(s) in ''North'' was NOT invisible to everyone but North. For instance, in Texas the other workers at the ranch introduce him and speak of him, saying things like, "He's killed for less than that."
