This one begins all twisted up and is slowing, showing up the knotted pieces to untie and piece back together. We've now been given an interesting twist to our story, I'm unaware of the implications of the Visions or Nightmares as of yet. There seems to be some trauma, and we definitely have some hidden and maybe even trauma that were unaware of at this point in the story. The film is giving off crazy eerie vibes, and the scenes hint at something possibly diabolical in the works. The twist isn't very far off from the setup the film points at, and now we get to see just how far they are willing to take the story and give us something truly scary. My mind is officially blown by this film's playthrough, and it's a beautiful setup and continuous misleading of the viewer
