  • The dying scene isn't meant to be realistic, because a graphic death would spoil the atmosphere. This is a PROPER ghost film, not a graphic "horror" movie.

  • He was in good shape after being run over by a TRAIN !

  • @enrg4Christ Because the driver was doing the same thing as the ghost.

  • @ShaurntheSheep No the driver wasn't the ghost. The thing he saw wasn't even a ghost really, it's more like a vision, something only he can see.

    When he saw the thing by the tunnel entrance it was like he was getting a preview (and a warning) of his own death. It was somehow being communicated to him from the future to the present.

  • why was the narrator surprised after what the train conductor told him in the very end??

  • I thought the signalman would have beard (?)

  • For all of those who don't get the story, I recommend you read the synopsis on Wikipedia, then the actual short story, and THEN watch the movie. It all makes a lot more sense that way. I read the story before anything else, and it confused me so much I didn't even realise that there were ghosts involved. The synopsis explained everything so I reread the story and then knew what to expect when I watched the movie.

  • I don't get the end, was the driver the ghost

    great spooky tail

  • the guy with the white face is the main character!

  • @trema006 She was leaning too far out of the window and lost her balance. Since the train was going full speed, the sudden stop when she landed on the ground probably caused her to break her neck and kill her instantly.

  • Brill. I cycle past the mouth of this tunnel everyday, It was filmed on the SVR in Kidderminster.

  • think i'll have to read the book.....i did suspect the ending though
