You don’t have to believe in the supernatural to recognise that the family is a haunted structure, an Overlook Hotel full of presentiments and uncanny repetitions, something that speaks ahead of us, instead of us…

[transcript: 1. “god is fucking with my oblivion. if he wants forgiveness, he shouldn’t have given us memory.”
2. “your god comes and he is ordinary and terrible. he confers with the doctors at your kitchen table and tells you to eat….”
3. “our father who art in heaven. our father who art buried in the yard.”
4. “at the trial of god, we will ask: ‘why did you allow all this?’ and the answer will be an echo: ‘why did you allow all this?’”
5. “i don’t believe in god as much as i believe in the interrogation room. i believe in someone placing a loaded gun on a metal table between me and a door. who gets to be god then? will god be the bullet or the table or the door.”
6. “every spy knows this. some say god is where we put our sorrow. god says, which one of you fuckers can get to me first?”/end transcript.]

Ed Simon, from Who’s There?: Every Story Is a Ghost Story
[Text ID: "loss, betrayal, and trauma is something that must be exorcized from the psyche before healing can take place." Just because we might believe ourselves to be done with ghosts doesn't mean that ghosts are done with us. Phantoms so often function as the allegorical because whether or not specters are real, haunting very much is. We're haunted by the past, we're haunted by trauma, we’re haunted by history.]
