It is so sad that the owner of the old willis place left the kids in the cellar, and then the kids died, but ther is another side to the story. The reason she didn't take them out at the time she was suposed to was because she had fallen down the stairs and when the ambulense came to get her she couldn't speak to let them know that the kids were in th cellar.
yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! so sad
