Welcome to Fictional Fears, a series where we delve into the fundamental nature of fear by analysing our favourite horror icons from film and TV to try and understand what it is that makes them so terrifying.
In this episode we dive into what makes the Babadook such a terrifying concept from the hit supernatural horror film The Babadook and discover why Amelia’s son Sam isn’t the only unwanted presence in her life.

It was such a great touch that they included that last scene of her feeding the Babadook, they could have easily had her expel it from their lives when she realised she needed to face and internalise the grief instead of denying it but the film stayed true to the theme of grief and how it never truly leaves us and did the same with the Babadook

I think it’s one of the best Horror themes out there and that ending truly was the cherry on top, I think it still would have worked without it but having it really grounded the theme into the reality of grief and the nature of us never truly overcoming it

Making the switch from overaching film themes to focusing on Fear IMO is sick.. Few suggestions from myself, that monkey from Pirates of the Caribbean, Mr Beans Landlord from the series and the Captains Bot from Wall-E (That's ones serious)

I think if I had a son like Samuel I’d probably just let the Babadook have him 😂 this was such a sick OG film tho I know it was a complete solo film but I’m surprised no ones tried to make another one given its success

I’d be all for an unrelated second film they’ve got the premise to work with and they don’t have to repeat the same flow either they could have a darker more gritty ending where the character doesn’t necessarily overcome their grief as intended, I’d love to see it
