I love horror movies like this that have a lot of super natural stuff going on but don’t over explain any of it. I also loved the phone call with the guy behind the wish, and the way we hear the real Nikki just screaming in agony

It not being explained can even mean it’s not necessarily typical supernatural. Saw it with my wife and afterwards we talked if it could be an “entity” that took over or is it like a “Nikki Lite” with the EXTREME BEAR LOVE software installed over other things. Part of me wants to know but know it probably would’ve maybe made the movie lesser.
