* The persistence of the Babadook at the end seems to act as a metaphor for Amelia sorting out her grief, mental illness and feelings of despondence towards her son despite being unable to fully erase the trauma. However, doesn't the fact that the Babadook still inhabits the basement imply that one day she could [[AxCrazy once again go murderously insane]] if she's not careful? The idea that she could relapse and kill Sam and herself in the future is quite disturbing in itself.
