The clock is set back to Josh's childhood when Eisley came to Josh's house to help solve Josh's problem.
In order to understand what Josh feared in this house, Elis hypnotized Josh. Out of instinctive fear, Josh didn't relax, so Iris played a game with Josh, and if Iris got close to that thing Josh said hot, far away said cold. After searching through various rooms in the house, I finally found the thing in the closet of Josh's room.
When Iris tried to tempt, he was scratched by the evil spirit, looking at the scratches on his arm, Iris deduced that the evil spirit was a parasite, and Josh's ability to wander attracted the parasite and wanted to possess his body.
Due to the power of the parasite, the only thing Iris could do was seal Josh's ability to wander. And just as people were discussing the feasibility of this plan, Josh stood up and said behind him: I will take you to see. Then he walked up the stairs in the hallway and pointed to a door, and that door opened in the direction.
At this point, the director left us with a question: Who is the person who Josh is talking to behind him? And what secret was hidden behind the door he was pointing to? Take these questions with you to find answers in subsequent episodes.
Relais is then investigated by the police officers into Iris's death, and Relais is convinced that josh did not kill Iris, but the officer does not think so, and if the fingerprints on Iris's neck are determined to be josh who killed Iris, he will not escape responsibility.
The family returning home from the police station seems to be back to normal, but the piano that suddenly plays automatically, and Kali, who falls from the cradle bed to the ground, make Relais realize that the parasites in the house are still haunted. It was because of this that the suspicion between Josh and Relais deepened.
In order to investigate Iris's death, her assistant came to Iris's house hoping to find some clues, and in the cubicle of the reading room, the assistants found a videotape of Iris's interview with Josh in 1986, and from the tape the assistants discovered a strange scene.
When Rowling woke up in the early hours of the morning, she came to Dalton's bedside, and Dalton was still wandering, and told Rowling that there was a person standing behind her, and Rowling immediately got up and turned on the light in the room, and looked around the house for something suspicious, and in the process of searching, a woman in a white wedding dress appeared.
In a state of panic, Both Rayleigh and Rowling notice that Josh, who was too calm in front of them, had become strange. The next morning, as Dalton recounts his nightmares the night, he finds Josh talking to someone. In order not to worry Dalton, Rayleigh can only reassure Dalton's father that he is okay.
Rowling also told Iris's assistants about her concerns, and the assistants took Rowling to Iris's basement, and several people found from the processed video that Josh turned his head and spoke backwards to the elder Josh, and Rowling was shocked to see this scene.
The plot develops here as if the previous doubts have been revealed, this scene is indeed unexpected, with my understanding of the plot, what should appear here is a parasitic spirit, not Josh himself who travels through time and space. It seems that the answer has been revealed, and it has brought up new questions - why is this him? What is his purpose here? And what did Josh say to him as a child?
While Raleigh was washing clothes at home, he received a call from the police officer who confirmed Josh's innocence, and a relieved Relais was attracted to the reception room by the automatically moving stroller, and saw the woman in the white robe in the reception room, when Relais chased her to the study, the woman's singing came from Kelly's monitor, followed by Kelly's cry, and when the panicked Relais rushed to Kelly's room, the door was unlocked, and after the roar of the bold man inside, it was a loud slap. Then when Rayleigh rushed to open the door, Kelly was no longer in the crib, and came downstairs to look for Kelly, and suddenly a woman in a white robe appeared behind her and yelled at Rayleigh: You are so bold. Then a loud slap slapped Rayleigh to the ground.
Here the woman in white appears and uses the iconic words: What a bold. It has created a strong female character image, and the long-term preparation of the woman in white seems to have nothing to do with the black parasite that appeared before, but for horror movies, all the characters that appear have their reasons for existence, so seemingly unrelated people must be inextricably linked in the follow-up.
Rowling, on the other hand, invites Carl to perform a psychic ritual in order to find out the truth about Elis's murder, and through Carl's sieve they are hinted at in the hospital where Rowling used to work.
So the group went to the hospital where Rowling had worked before and stopped in an ICU ward, in which Rowling recalled a patient named Parker whom Josh had met before, when Josh was looking around in front of Parker's bed, and after turning his head, Parker suddenly sat up and grabbed Josh, parker was quiet with the help of the paramedics, but a few days later, Rowling saw Parker again in the elevator. A confused Rowling learned after asking the nurse at the front desk that Parker was not parker himself, because parker had committed suicide by jumping off a building the morning before.
Back at home, Josh finds his teeth beginning to fall out in the bathroom, and the figure behind him tells him that if he doesn't kill Relais and the children, he will be in a weaker state, and Josh in the mirror has shown a fierce face.
Waking up from his coma, Relais is still helpless in the face of Josh, who is as calm as ever, and the piano suddenly begins to play the song that Relais wrote to Josh, and it is clear that Josh in front of Relais does not care about the origin of the song at all, and he cares more about the "uninvited guest" in the house.
The group who found Parker's case in the hospital knew Parker's address and entered his house, and found a child's room on the second floor of the house, in which behind Tucker appeared a girl with a double ponytail sitting on the bed with her back to the two people, and the girl told Tucker to leave the house quickly, otherwise she would force her to kill them all, and when the two people who quickly left the room looked back at the bed, the girl disappeared.
At night, after Dalton fell asleep in bed, he was awakened by the sound in the microphone, and inside told Dalton to help them, they were all killed by a person, and the other end of the microphone was connected to the closet, just when the microphone was tightened, a woman-like soul rushed out of the closet and asked For Help, and when Dalton turned his head, dozens of ghosts appeared in front of him, and Dalton, who was wandering again, jumped back to the bed and covered himself with a quilt, thus escaping the entanglement of the ghosts.
Josh, who was holding a baseball bat, sat at the piano and said to the air: You don't want to connect with Relais, you should be your ghost, and when Josh walked out of the room, another Josh appeared at the piano and shouted for help. Apparently, the real Josh was trapped in a foreign land, and now it was someone else who possessed Josh's body.
At this point in the story, the director has repeatedly depicted the state of Josh who has been encroached upon, and what is the role of such a foreshadowing? Why is so much preparation needed? For the audience, only Rayleigh is the one in the dark, and what is the purpose of the director's design? Does it just add to the suspense? As the protagonist, Relais has actually been hinted at countless times by various strange events, and it is counterintuitive why she has not given up her fantasies. So this begs the question: What exactly is Rayleigh insisting on? Perhaps because Josh had died nine times in a foreign land, her heart could no longer bear a huge blow again, so she chose to deceive herself.
The group of people looking for clues in Parker learn through Carl's psychic that it was not Iris who brought them here, but Parker's mother. When they opened the secret door, they found the bodies of fifteen people sitting neatly inside, and in the box by the wall, Tucker found news about Black Widow, which said that Black Widow had killed a total of 15 people. It is only after Carl and Parker's psychic that it is revealed that Parker is actually a black widow and that he is a transvestite who likes to disguise himself as a woman and wear a black wedding dress to kill women. Parker was forced to do so by his mother, and the reason why Josh was chosen was because he wanted to go back to his childhood.
Although the relationship between the woman in white and the black widow is described very simply, there is also a reversal here that is transvestite. When he wears heavy makeup and walks towards the murdered woman with a saw, although he controls the power of life and death, this power is deliberately suppressed by a woman under the dress of a woman, and when a person's subconscious gender consciousness is deliberately suppressed, the gender consciousness of the suppressed person will slowly collapse, and finally there will be self-harm or hurting others.
Just as Rayleigh is about to take Kelly home, Rowling stops her in time and tells her that it is not the house that is at fault, but Josh, because she thinks that the real Josh is still trapped in a foreign land, and it is parker who is now possessing Josh's body.
Carl and his assistants, who watched the two leave, added a monitor to Carl in front of the house, and Carl sneaked into the house and talked to Josh, who tried to leave with his teeth when Carl found Josh's teeth on the ground and was stopped by Josh. When Karl, who was left behind, was preparing to subdue Josh with an anesthetic, Josh stood in front of Carl with his hands behind his back, and when Cal accurately predicted that Josh was holding a knife behind him, Josh had rushed towards Carl with the knife, and the assistant who heard the news was no match for Parker and was subdued.
In the exotic land, Carl meets Josh, who says that his wife and children will be in danger if he does not go back, while Karl says that there is no hope of going back if he does not find Iris, so the two begin to look for Iris. In the exotic land, Josh came to his house through guidance, and Josh saw the scene in front of him as if he was a bystander, but Rayleigh was not by his side. Almost every strange thing that happens in the house has to do with Josh.
This paragraph is the most wonderful part of the whole film, not only for the questions that appear in this film, but also to explain all kinds of strange foreshadowings in the previous part, and in the process of explanation, all the strange things that are considered in the inertial thinking are completely abandoned with the setting of evil spirits, but also re-pull out a line to relate to the plot in this part, which makes the seemingly separate structure of the two films suddenly become tighter, and I have to admire the director's ability to tell stories is too strong.
Parker uses Tucker's cell phone to lure Rayleigh into the room to kill them, but eventually Rayleigh takes the child into the basement and temporarily escapes Parker's attack.
Dalton hopes to use his wandering abilities to bring Josh and Carl back. In the exotic Josh and Parker's mother engaged in a fierce battle, when Josh is in danger, Elis appears in time to kill Parker's mother, thus freeing Parker's soul, and Josh is able to get out of danger and successfully return to his family with the help of Dalton.
Eventually, Josh and Dalton, with Carl's help, completely disarmed themselves, and the family's life was completely restored to normal.
Later, Tucker and Steder arrive at Elson's house to help the family, but when they come to the house again, Iris discovers an even more terrible truth, which sets the stage for the next episode.

First of all, starting from this film, through the combing of the plot, it can be found that there are many reversals and echoing settings, and the plot that echoes before and after is beyond the mode of inertial thinking, it is not a solidification of a certain technique to achieve a shocking effect, but in the careful tasting to find the subtleties of its conception.
This one is more tightly related than the previous one, which is more like beads scattered on a plate, each of which is bright enough to form a finished story through this plate, but the connection between each bead is not strong. In the second part, the whole story is like a thread, connecting the beads scattered on the plate. The most valuable point is that the process of series fully considers the logic of the plot, rather than randomly pieced together, and its sequence of arrangement is very clever.
In fact, for the second part, it can not be separated to analyze, it is more like a whole with the first part, my intuitive feeling is that the first and second parts are one in the story framework, in the construction of the story line, the two are originally closely related, and in order to highlight the suspense and be systematically separated. In view of my understanding, it can be concluded that when conceiving a story structure, in addition to paying attention to every detail, it is best to consider the relationship and impact of this detail on the whole, and how to deal with this relationship and give full play to the energy of influence will directly affect the quality of the whole story.

Wen Ziren presents us with the outside and inside of horror films through two films. The outside can present the adrenaline rushing visual experience through various methods, while the inner layer highlights the importance of horror film storytelling in the stripping cocoon. When the outer and inner can be perfectly combined, the structure of the whole story can become full and complete.
