![]() ![]() Then I wonder why the room with the ghost hunter equipment was sealed. Now to what isn't as clear.ĭid it never bother Claire that a clue to her murdering Rachel was still in her old car, far away from her influence and control? Why did she never try to get rid of it, simply by pretending to fetch her car for example? Obviously no one bothered to open the car (by force) and look into it. When Claire and Nicole left the Hotel and Helena for good they have been driven by another person in their car (Nicole's uncle?) which explains why Claire's car is still in the garage after almost 10 years, untouched because of missing keys. Nicole was jealous of her because of all the attention Leonard gave Rachel and not his daughter. That all happend because Leonard had an affair with Rachel, who was also pregnant from him. Nobody knew that Claire was the killer and that it wasn't a suicide but murder. Claire killed Rachel with Nicole's hockey stick, threw her off the cliff during the hockey game and left the bloody blanket in her car, which Nicole finds years later during the actual game. I wish they would have thought about the other characters as well. I just wish, they would have given the story more careful thoughts and more details. Although the overall idea is great and I am not opposed to tell a story about suicide! In this story to me nothing really adds up. In a good thriller the audience is deceived and surprised many times, but all this has to make sense. I would have understood, if she suffered, if a dpressed, insecure Nicole would have arrived at the hotel, a woman tortured by her past, but she seems to be so fine that it came as a surprise to me, but not as a good one, not as a delicate plottwist, but as unrealistic as it could get. ![]() And now, even after everything is solved, the brave young independent woman Nicole wants to kill herself, too. What the heck? No hint, no nothing, he just the brother and after finding out the truth he kills himself. ![]() Hey, we have a plothole - ok, let's make Irving Rachels brother. the discovery that he is Rachels brother makes it seem that he is the rabbit jumping out of a hat. Her father is dead, her mother is dead and Irving, Rachels brother kills himself. Then, when Nicole remembers all of that she wants to kill herself? Rachel is long dead. But we know so little, that everything about what leads Claire to the final deed seems far streched to me.Īnd in the end, she left Leonard anyway with Nicole. Did Claire love Leonard so much? What was at stake? Yeah sure. For a grown woman to murder a sixteen year old it takes something. How did she find out about the affair? Waht kind of person is Claire? What makes her in the end murder another human being, a sixteen year old? Was it out of the blue? Did she plan it? As we know so little about Claire it just does not add up, in my opinion. Was it a real love story? Was it plain abuse? The story leaves it so far open to the point where I have the feeling, the creators are undecided themselves and this is never good.Īnd there is no further explanation about Claire murdering Rachel. And then there are hints, which make this love so uncomfortable to take in, like the retainer Rachel is still wearing or "her" room in the hotel basement - the room of a child, not of a teeanger. The love for the stars, shared feelings for being an outsider in the worlds they live - Leonard, the astrophysic in a hotel - Rachel, maybe an atheist in a deeply religious family - at least something like that, but there is nothing except the claim they were in love and this is thin. we knew more about Rachel, if apart from beeing dyslexic, there was something, they had in common. This man falls in love with the sixteen year old Rachel. How he ended up in the hotel stays a bit unclear, maybe due to marrying Nicoles mother who knows. He seemed to be a very clever and educated man with a master degree in Astrophysics. We read her mothers letter in the beginning, where she tells Nicole to give the money she gets from selling the hotel to Rachels family, which seems to me quite awkward at that point, but it becomes clear near the end why she demands it.Īnd we get to know Leonard, Nicoles father, through some details she finds on her way through the hotel. Slowly she discovers the truth about Rachel, while wandering through the old hotel. ![]() She seems to be, judging from the dialogues, a brave and selfconfident young woman. Although I liked the atmosphere and the hotel itself very much and I was intrigued by the character development during the dialogues, the story makes no sense to me.ĭon't read further, if you havn't played the game yet. One of the reasons I gave this game a negative review ist the storyline. ![]()
