What Happens

A young woman watches as her mother dies on the floor and screams at her own inability to save her.  

Later, as she goes through her mother’s belongings, she starts to experience odd things; memories of her mother calling for help with a buzzer. That damned buzzer, over and over. “It will kill me someday,” she says in terror. Her mother had dementia or something and was always imagining a monster. “You will kill me,” she adds. 

What really happened here? Why does mother’s buzzer keep going off long after the woman is dead?

Commentary

It’s a very weird ghost story that we don’t understand until the end. 

It’s very dark, even in rooms that are supposed to be lit. Actually, it was dark enough that I had trouble seeing what was going on, even when I was supposed to know what was happening. On a second viewing, I think I figured out what was going on, but it wasn’t super clear at first.
