Mannen Under Trappan is a series that was released a long ago. People watched it and enjoyed it but never really understood it.
You know, some movies or series do not have a conventional end. It is deliberately done so that people can draw their own conclusions.
I know it sounds pretty weird, but this is done to protect the feelings of the audience. Let me put this in simple words.
How many times have you absolutely hated the ending of a particular movie or series because your favorite character died or you had different expectations? Quite a few times, right?
Yes, so to avoid this disappointment, directors or writers leave the ending open-ended so that people can imagine a beautiful ending based on their own understanding.
Mannen Under Trappan didn’t end. The man living under the stairs is still there, Fredrik hasn’t got closer to his family, and he might be turning into a man.
Sounds weird and disturbing, right? The movie created a lot of suspense. Perhaps this was the reason people were upset when they didn’t get to know the truth.
But there is actually no truth. It’s all about perception.
Mannen Under Trappan: Story Explained
So the story is about a young family man named Fredrik. He moves to a house with his beautiful wife and wonderful children.
Everything is going well, and his entire family is in love with the house. But Fredrik is not that excited about it. Why? He has discovered something strange and horrible.
He saw a tiny man living under the stairs of his house. The man says that he has been doing it for a long time, and this is the way he lives.
What do you expect him to do now? Talk to his family, right? But his family is not able to understand what he is saying.
Eventually, they just start keeping their distance from him. The beautiful family that he absolutely loved and they loved them back are not even interested in watching his face.
Moreover, his daughter starts ignoring him. On the other hand, Fredrik tries his best to find the man and make him leave the house.
But sometimes, he realizes that there is no man. But the next second, he sees evidence of another presence.
So, is it a ghost? Or is Fredrik turning insane? What defines insanity? The audience needs to find out. So, what do you think?
Ending Words
You know, it is not necessary to draw conclusions. Rather than defining everything, we should just enjoy the fact that some things actually cannot be defined, and the beauty lies in them.
Moreover, it is not only the audience who suffers from unwanted endings but the actors too, and Linden Ashby is one of them.
He acted in “Teen Wolf’ and knew the ending but refused to watch it. If the actors can bear the pain and they are not running to conclusions, why are you?
Draw 100 endings and enjoy.
