So seems like you're safe in the Airbnb?


As long as you didn't go down to the basement and through the cave door, or outside at night. Both Keith and the girl were left unharmed through their first night and so was Justin Long's character, who must have stayed there other times I imagine, since he owns it, presumably all while the woman creature has been coming upstairs and out of the house at night. The trouble only started for them once they started investigating in the tunnels.

Any particular reason the woman creature didn't just attack them on the first night if they are right there and she is going out to hunt anyway?

I’m not sure but that’s a good question. I think it’s because the writers wouldn’t be able to stretch that for an hour and a half so they introduced us to the characters and made us quite unsure on what or if the first male tenant was up to no good

I honestly don’t like that they made it to where the mutant lady left the house and just roamed the streets at night. Granted I get why the writers wrote it like this(no one cares about what goes on the hood) but I just can’t picture that huge freak lady roaming the streets at night .. plus the homeless knew her well yet none of them thought to gang up on her and try to kill her at some point..? I mean, how long has she been doing this…?
