Ha! And just as I hit post he actually talked about playing in the sea. Still nothing about "goblins", it's specifically referring to the spirits of the dead, but whatever. #folkhorrorfriday Also looking at the Internet, I completely forgot that the main character in the book was a dude with a wife and daughter. I really need to read it again, I've forgotten far more than I remember. #folkhorrorfriday 
And I think he had an asshole professor friend who perved on his students. They kind of turned him into the husband character for the movie and really toned him down.
#FolkHorrorFriday Hahaha, oh my god, that goofy sound library punch sound effect at the well. That was used in like a thousand video games from the early 90s to the early aughts. Never, ever use sound library shit in your horror film. It's the same reason I can't watch The Babadook without laughing. #folkhorrorfriday
