With this clue, plus the addition of finding Elizabeth Maxwell's ashes at the end of the game, it would seem that Blue Knees was the true demonic entity behind everything. This information hints that Blue Knees was also trying to complete a body exchange ritual, but was perhaps unsuccessful. Later on, you will use the wedding ring as the 'sentimental object' in the body exchange ritual. However, in Elizabeth's diary, she describes how her wedding ring keeps going missing and turning up in Johnny's room. As the haunting continued, Elizabeth's eyesight grew worse and worse, until she had no eyes at all, mirroring the story of Blue Knees. Soon after it became apparent that a demonic entity of the same name was attached to the book. Similar to what has happened to Luca, Elizabeth purchased a children's book called Blue Knees for her son Johnny. The haunting of Elizabeth Maxwell (Luca's grandma) by the creature Blue Knees. While this part of the story remains true, as you explore more of Grandpa's house, you discover details of a different demonic haunting, separate from Madison Hale. It would seem as though Madison is forcing Luca to finish the seven sacrifices she started. While possessed, Luca murdered his mother and his sister, Chanel. The demonic spirit of Madison Hale was still attached to the camera, and it possessed Luca. Luca was gifted Madison's used instant camera for his sixteenth birthday. However, the police intercepted her before the ritual could be completed, leaving only four sacrifices carried out. Madison Hale was possessed by some demonic entity and forced to make seven sacrifices in order to complete a 'body exchange ritual' on its behalf. From the notes and audio clues you stumble across, including the Cassette Tapes from Priest Thomas, the following seems clear: Understanding how the creature Blue Knees figures into all of this requires a deeper look.Īt the start of the game, a different narrative seems to be unfolding. It is simple enough to see that at the end of the game, Luca loses to the demonic influence and his body is taken over. It is not that Luca survived, but rather that Madison has resurrected inside Luca's body. This is why Luca appears to die at first, before opening his eyes again and gasping. You can assume then that the 'body exchange ritual' mentioned both by Priest Thomas, and described in the book in the Ritual Room, has been completed. Including the Blue Knees children's book. This photo resembles all the photos that Luca ever took of Madison or objects affected by her demonic influence. When the instant camera takes a photo of Luca in the Ritual Room, now hanging from the noose, the photo that develops is burnt.

However, without delving too deep, there is one thing the ending of the game instantly reveals to us.Īs Luca dies, Madison appears to approach him. The ending of Madison is extremely dark and equally vague.
