Hm. I am not so easy to convince. Absolutely everything is a hint if your net is broad enough. I certainly would never get upset with a detail because I thought it was a hint.
Anyway, I think it was just supposed to be scary. Most people I know are terrified of paranormal children. Something about ghost babies and kids is that much more terrifying than a normal ghost for some reason.
Humans are naturally grown to find the sound of crying uncomfortable, and the sounds of crying children most unpleasant of all. What do you think makes it possible we can tell apart the sounds of a crying adult from a crying child? They did research on it and apparently women especially - and ESPECIALLY women with children - will do almost anything to make it stop.
I just noticed this so I hope it is not necro, but I am familiar with this concept. Quite frankly, I really dislike crying, too. Who doesn't? I do not equate uncomfortable to scary, though. Otherwise, why did people want a fear emotion when tense served the job?
More seriously, though, I was speaking of personal experience with people thinking ghost children being much more scary of a concept than adult ghosts. Personally, I find that odd. If the fear is of the supernatural element itself, I would not make the distinction between ages because it all reduces down to the key supernatural element. Yet, time and time again, the people I meet seem much more scared (not simply uncomfortable) with the concept of ghost children.
I get really scared of young posessed children staring, like in the movies ?
