Compromise Despair Easy
I would much rather see somebody bring something new to a genre than produce something that seems safe.

Ghosts are a metaphor that can be interpreted so many different ways. There’s no ending to what you can do. You can make it a fun ghost story. You can make it a deeply disturbing, psychological ghost story.
