This is a horror short film about the Guest.
I recommend watching this short horror film in the dark, with the volume turned up and on the biggest screen you can find. Thats how horror films are meant to be viewed. Sweet dreams. x

the story is about her suicidal thoughts. she couldn't escape until it got to that point. the guest is (to me) what she believe those thoughts look like. it has the same ear thing as her because it basically is her. the guest wasn't evil really just misunderstood because of how she was struggling and suffering. when she got better the guest will get better. i actually watch this every year since it came out

[@erinhollow773]

Words can't describe the terror I felt when the objective and unnoticed camera started FOLLOWING her

[@r.c8756]

A few years ago, I used to have a recurrent nightmare in which I was in some sort of office in a high rise. There was this woman in white working outfit at her desk and she was alone, no one else was around. I was in there too close to her but she couldn’t see me. And suddenly I felt the inexplicable urge to scare her so I’d creep close to her ears and started moaning, and I’d see her face distort with terror all while she began to scream, and the more she screamed, the louder I moaned. Somehow, I was the ghost and yet I was as terrified as her. I always woke up at that moment with chills in my spine...I never could make sense of that dream. I haven’t had it for years now. This film kind of reminds me of this because in the scene you’re describing it feels like we’re looking through the creature’s eyes and your comment reminded me of this similar scenario of my dream.

It does, it's a very good skill you don't see often in the horror industry, not to say it's terrible to not have it. I'd like to recommend you a certain horror game called Darkwood if you like a good scare without any jumpscares, it's an amazing experience.

[@the8bitgrandpashow282]

Sadly, it’s a very, very rare occurrence. Horror is extremely easy to make compared to other genres (don’t need a good story, don’t necessarily need good actors, just put some loud noises in there and maybe some blood and call it a day), so that’s why there’s not much talent in the horror industry, well at least that’s my opinion. These are the kind of minds needed in filmmaking, and sadly they’re very often overlooked. That’s why when I see something like this, I make sure I help the creator in some way, even if it’s just by liking the video or watching more of their videos.

[@the8bitgrandpashow282]

Thats what i like to think anyway

Dear Finn Callan, I found this horror short just a cinematic masterpiece, from the great visual shots to the beautiful story telling. Your ability to create such beauty with minimal interaction between humans, when there is sound used in the movie it has a great purpose and is used amazingly.

[@autumnemerald1019]

I honestly interpreted this as a woman with schizophrenia and she tried to escape the hallucinations by harming herself. However, the hallucinations are STILL there. In my opinion, that's why she kept seeing the creepy figure and why she was hearing the breathing. Thus, THAT'S why she burned her eyes, stabbed her ears, and even smacked herself upside the head multiple times. She wants the visual and auditory hallucinations to stop; and unfortunately, it's not uncommon for people with schizophrenia to go through moments like this. She tried running away, she tried closing her eyes repeatedly, she tried to harm herself ... but you ultimately can't escape your own mind. Your brain can have unwanted "guests" - i.e. mental disorders.

[@thisismykingdomcome8743]

I have a theory: A bit interesting, at the start it says "If you have suicidal thoughts, tell someone." Everyone in the comments is saying how the story is about the girl having schizophrenia, but the creator of this video has responded to those comments and stated that they're "almost right". I on the otherhand, believe this is a story about suicide. The weird guest thing must be her fears or something shes running away from. Its clear that the guest isnt real as no other humans are able to see it. The guest must represent something the main character hates. Its so ugly that she takes out her eyes and ears. She refuses to see it, but in the end, she has to face it and come to terms with it.

[@geometryprats]

My theory about this film it's that the guest basically looks away at the end because the reason no one can see him/her it's because "the guest" it's Maria. Do you understand what i mean? Basically i'm saying that the film is a representation of her fears. As you know, the guest doesn't have ears and it doesn't seem like he has real eyes. So... when the woman faces him, she is finally accepting that she is blind and deaf. In other words, the guest was a representation of her own insecurities.

So 'The Guest' is the embodiment of trauma? Uninvited, haunting, stays. She can try and expose the guest to other people, but no one can see what she sees, because it's hers. How it stares represents the actual event(s) that caused the trauma, while the benign manneurism shows that it's not there to attack or hurt. For some, living with trauma can drive them to insanity or suicide. For others, they learn to co-exist with it or ignore it altogether. Awesome.

[@doflamingo8249]

Yes, so basically, 'The Guest', apparently is basically herself too, not literally, but what seems to be the ear injuries, wide open eyes of the suspense, and no hair, baldy lol

I think the guest represents her trauma/ fear, it has no intention, it just exists, to take the fear away all she has to do is confront it.

[@gawdyatogawdyato2303]

It’s the anxiety from a trauma perhaps the seeing someone that isn’t there is just an aspect and you feel out of control and anxious like something is chasing you and it pushes you to the point when the only escape is hurting yourself because everyone is talking about how it never hurt her but what about her she never hurt it like she knew it wasn’t there like it was irrational that’s the thing about it you feel like your being harmed even though nothing is currently harming you and you know it’s irrational but that doesn’t take away from what your feeling and so you punish urself instead because you can’t harm a feeling but it’s still gunu be there in the end idk:^

[@browndoggo8446]

Ok i am pharagraph guy: the lore is that The guest is actually her future because she poured bleach into her eyes the guest has enlarged irratated eyeballs Then she stabbed her ears if you look closely the guests ears are deformed implying that the guest is her Dont forget the captions because the guest seemed sad when she did that to herself the guest was sad because she has seen her past self go through all that all over again

[@Clara-iu2ql]

I suffer from stress induced misinterpretation. Basically it means that when i hear a noise somewhere, my brain thinks there is somebody or something coming for me instead of it just being a normal noise. When the idea is set in my head, I start to hear things like footsteps coming closer or breathing when there's in fact nothing. I first highly regret watching this because every night after, I couldn't stop thinking The Guest was in my room, was she staring at me ? Oh shit was she sitting on my bed without I even noticed ? Did I just felt the sheets move ? Spent some awful nights lol. But now it has been two weeks ''she represents fear, not harm'' and I take deep breaths, and for the first time in years I can finally stop the process. I don't know how, I don't know why but for the first time I can accept it as fear and not harm. So thanxx for the help i guess ? It was so similar to what I experienced

[@clrrmro]

Bro, i kept thinking: "He's not doing anything, why are you so scared? He just wants to be on your side, i think"

[@pooppoopy5632]

She really hurt her self BC of him that’s just she poured bleach into her eyes just so she didn’t see him anymore I think that’s what he does but she can still see him

Horror isn’t just all the jumpscares and the wide smiles, horror is about the atmosphere, and the fact the guy was staring completely motionless and so dead-pan made me scared the most. You have created something amazing

[@marcochesti3750]

If you fon't know it, I advice you about an italian horror film: La casa dalle finestre che ridono (The house with laughing windows) by Pupi Avati. It's almost the type of horror movie you speak of. For the entire film don't happen literally nothing except at the end, but it succeeds to put on you an unimaginable fear.

my interpretation was that she was schizophrenic and that the guest was just a hallucinations and she bleached her eyes and cut off her ears to get rid of the hallucination completely. but then in the end it shows that the guest wasn’t there to hurt her, and that’s why he’s their without ears too maybe show comfort to her? idk
