Nadine was inside the accelerator room and she is ALREADY dead, she could just open the portal and no one would die. Keeps the door open for a season 2. Its a good idea, but wasn't Father Dan surprised by the discovery of the room he found? Also, for some reason, Maggie spirit does not flicker like the rest of the really dead ones even after finishing her business. He said to Maggie at the end that "He's dying you know" and Maggie replies with "I know, we can find a new host when we get to the main land" So I thought that meant that at some point Roman was possessed by Maggies ex or something. It's possible he kept the myth going. Now that ending with Father Dan was weird. maybe it was not Father Dan, but an hallucination. Press question mark to learn the rest of the keyboard shortcuts. The end was bad anyway, felt rushed with lots of plot holes. *SPOILER WARNING: The following contains minor spoilers for Ghosts of War.. Just to start off, Eric, where did the idea for this movie come from? No act of sudden sci-fi silliness can overshadow how effectively every breadcrumb, clue, and seemingly insignificant detail culminates in an intense ending no one can possibly see coming. Spoilers for 'Ghosts of War' To most people, World War II was a horror story in itself. And regarding Father Dan/Whistling Man, whistling man is a local legend and probably doesn't exist. So maybe he IS the Whistling Man, and the children are led into the forest and used to create or fuel the first pods (like Carol seems to)? He wanted to be with her but can't physically, and if that was the case he finally got it in the end. As for the Roman/Maggie thing, I wonder if he got the idea to bring Maggie along when he put the artifact together. eventAction: 'view' }); I have rarely been so disappointed with how a movie progresses. He could not be the Whistle-man while alive because he sacrificed himself. The film stars Brenton Thwaites, Theo Rossi, Skylar Astin, Kyle Gallner, and Alan Ritchson. Also her ending line is really twisted, take another body? Also, for some reason, Maggie spirit does not flicker like the rest of the really dead ones even after finishing her business. Synopsis. Nadine was inside the accelerator room and she is ALREADY dead, she could just open the portal and no one would die. What... Why... Ok someone please explain? Ghosts of War A gaggle of American soldiers make their way to a fancy French chateau at the end of the second world war. Considering they kept talking about how powerful he is maybe it's something else they left open for another season. After all, the town legend is that the artefact arrival and the Whistling Man happened at the same time. During the darkest days of World War II, five American soldiers are ordered to hold a French castle formerly occupied by the Nazi high command. So, my theory is, as he died before the Portal was open, he became a twisted ghost and decide to assume the legend of the Whistle-man and don't leave. Were trapped there because as Lamdis said they had blocked deaths door and they couldn't move on, which is why they lashed out. And the children running after him bring some normalcy to that implication. Dr Clark told Roman that he was sure Daphne never intended to fulfill their deal, so after that, Maggie played Roman like "She is evil, lets take her body for a good thing...also this town will never like you anyway" so he did it..after all he was abused by almost the entire town his whole life. Also the whistling man turns children into rats, that end scene had the same amount of kids as there was rats in the bars ceiling, maybe ghosts can time travel? The way it ended for is the kind of ending I like: closed enough in case there's no second season, but open for more stories in the future.
