Lights Out originally ran longer and had another ending where Diana returns, which rendered Sophie's sacrifice pointless test audiences hated this epilogue, so it was trimmed to the current version. Starring: Teresa Palmer, Gabriel Bateman, Alexander John DiPersia. Some read the unfortunate subtext that Sophie 'freed' her family from the burden of her depression by taking her own life, but Sandberg - who has suffered from depression himself - quickly stated this wasn't the message at all. When a terrifying force arises from her family’s past, a woman must protect her young stepbrother from a spirit that kills its victims in the dark. The ending of Lights Out sees Sophie realize Diana is linked to the world through her, so to save her children she commits suicide. Sandberg intended to portray Diana as an embodiment of Sophie's depression, though the film's ending accidentally proved controversial in this regard. While light scares her off, towards the end of the film she can be seen via black light as a thin woman with horrible skin burns.

Lights Out reveals Diana's motive is to kill anybody seeking to get Sophie treatment, which includes her children. In death, Diana's spirit tethered herself to Sophie and has been with her since childhood, and later caused the death of her husband when he tried to get her help.
