The theory that we adhere to most is Vladamir Propp's.
We have:
-The Villain: The Dad
-The Father: The Dad
-A Second Villain: The Mistaken Daughter
We also follow the Story Line:
-Preparation: The Happy Family
-Complication: The Death of the Daughter
-Transference: Murder of the Mistaken Daughter
-Struggle: The Girl Haunting the Father
However, we subvert to this theory because:
- We have no: Donor, Dispatcher, False Hero, Helper or Princess
-There is no return or recognition
There is also the problem that due to the fact our film is a horror there will be a cliff hanger ending to lead the way to sequels. This means that a new equilibrium will not be reached and the theory cannot be completed.
