They never listen. DON'T SLEEP IN THE BROKEN BED!!

[@MJP_POV]

Haha exactly. Follow the house rules!

[@tiriqmoss434]

"Is the bed still in there?" 😮 Good job Mrs.Bonnie!

[@MJP_POV]

Haha isn't she great? We shot the end credits scene first. I'm biased of course, but I really like it, and the reporter is my little nod to Gale Weathers from Scream.

[@tiriqmoss434]

@@MJP_POV 💯 👍🏽

[@Mori_TheTherian]

This was the best 11 minutes and 52 seconds of my life

[@MJP_POV]

Wow, thank you! That's quite a compliment! Do I have your permission to use that in a quote to help promote the film?

[@Mori_TheTherian]

@@MJP_POV yes

[@MJP_POV]

@@Mori_TheTherian Thank you!

[@Nighhtarabiian]

Cornyyyyyy Finley is Wayyy Better And Funny this is crap

[@MJP_POV]

@@Nighhtarabiian This isn't a comedy. If you were looking for something funny, the joke's on you I guess.

[@TheComedyGeek]

The bloody hand coming out from under the bed was killer. And great acting by Bonnie!

[@MJP_POV]

Thanks so much!!

[@bettybagwell3712]

Well, if she knew it would happen why didn't she say something?!

[@MJP_POV]

Exactly. It asks the question Should people be held accountable if they have a feeling something is wrong but didn't speak up?

[@dethengine]

When she asked the girls if the other bed was gone, they said they only saw one bed. And since she believed that the spirit was tied to the bed, she assumed they would be safe.

[@littlestpetscop]

the gay hobbit line had me laughing so hard this was great lol

[@MJP_POV]

Haha thank you! It was the first thing I thought of (lovingly of course!) when I stepped inside

I gasped when he was leaning over her while she wasn't looking, how does such a normal looking guy give such a horrifying feeling?!?!
A+

[@MJP_POV]

Thanks so much! Haha yeah that was a reveal accomplished by simultaneous camera and actor movement. I was inspired by the original Nightmare on Elm Street for that shot.

[@Witchofthewoods.]

I'm impressed and the acting was pretty spot on. ❤

[@MJP_POV]

Thanks very much! It was a fast and furious 1 day shoot. Yes, proud of the cast. Lots of good people auditioned too.

Whats with the masks?
🙄

[@flouncymom]

My eyes rolled so far back into my head. Outside. 20 feet from someone. Unreal. And what the point of putting it in the movie is, not sure. Other than it dates it and virtue signals.

[@NidaSyeda]

Whys it called twin

[@MJP_POV]

The haunted bed is twin size.

[@user-he3yr5is7r]
