What’s the deal with Sarah and the rest of Peter’s family in Cobweb?

Its the shocking third act twist that turns this very grimhorror movieon its head.

At least, thats what Sarah whispers to him from the other side of his bedroom wall.

Cobweb

Peter doesnt heed her mothers final warning Dont let her out and is about to pay the price.

(This is why Peters parents ban trick or treating.)

In other words, Sarah wasnt lying when she told Peter that their parents were absolutely terrible people.

Peters nightmare is far from over, though.

Cut to sometime later: Peter has been adopted by Ms. Devine and now lives happily in her house.

That is, until one night when he goes to bed and finds his darling sister waiting for him…

In the end,Cobwebis about a cycle of abuse and violence.

And during all of this, Peter has also been tricked into committing murder.

But as Peter has learned through this traumatic experience, killing runs in the family.
