“Don’t go, don’t go. There are still Easter eggs.”

“I almost left but fortunately I didn’t miss the Easter eggs. Although the movie wasn’t that amazing, I still wanted to watch it until the end.”

In the theatre, many had got up and left. There were some who saw that there were Easter eggs and proceeded to sit back down to watch.

There were two Easter eggs in total. The first was related to the clown and was explained by the director while the second one was about Le Ling.

The clown’s appearance left a deep impression on Su Min.

During the Easter egg, the director explained that he had originally intended on having the magician take up a normal appearance, but he later felt that a clown was more stimulating

After all, with a performance like that, if the magician had the face of an ordinary person the audience probably would think that it was just a trick and they wouldn’t take it seriously.

This was also a way for the magician to avoid being recognised.

“The selection is random, and it can be good or bad. Unlike the few attendees during Le Ling’s performance, because of the magician’s greed, there was a much larger turn out for the show this time.”

“The presence of a clown was optional. To the ghosts behind everything, they just wanted to watch the performance and witness the emotions the audience goes through. Once the performance was over, his role was done, and he longer needed to exist.

And so, the clown would eventually turn into a pile of bones.

Even if Su Min and they didn’t deal that finalblow, the clown probably wouldn’t have lived long. The clown himself however probably was unaware of his fate.

The director also mentioned at the very end why the final performance involved vases. It was because these ghosts were victims that were killed to be turned into human sticks…..

When the second Easter egg came out, Su Min was filled with emotion.

Le Ling’s actor wore a uniform and appeared to be a fresh-looking young man. Without the make up in the movie, he no longer looked very feminine.

He didn’t explain much. It was all small details.

Because the movie only revealed certain scenes, much of the background information in the script wasn’t shown. Things like why he participated in the last show and why he was selected wasn’t explained.

Le Ling’s parent had saved him. He left the show and, in order not to be found, he began to crossdress and live his life secretly.

But Li Chi Yu sent him tickets to the show evoking his past memories.

Le Ling had always wanted to return to find his parents’ bones and to bring them back to be buried properly so he didn’t stop Li Chi Yu.

He thought that it didn’t matter if he couldn’t return alive. He could just die together with his parents.

But the director naturally allowed him and Li Chi Yu to escape successfully. Le Ling then chose to surrender and gave himself a real ending.

Su Min felt that the director did this in order to allow the movie to pass through its check and be allowed to be screened.

He heard an audience at the front say: “If you didn’t go then this horror movie wouldn’t have been filmed.”

No matter how unreasonable a horror movie was, you must devise a reason for it.
