You Should Have Left: Ending & House Explained

You Should Have Left delves into marital issues and guilt, with a unique take on a haunted house ending. Kevin Bacon's character's decision to stay behind symbolizes atonement for past sins in the film. The house in the movie represents a purgatory for sinners haunted by their past actions.
Blumhouse Productions' lesser-known offering of supernatural horror, You Should Have Left, plays with the haunted house sub-genre and places a modern twist on an ending packed with hidden meaning about marital and domestic issues. Starring Kevin Bacon as Theo Conroy and Amanda Seyfried as his wife, Susanna, You Should Have Left is a slow-burn thriller with deeper meaning about the larger ramifications of sin, marital strife, and guilt. Written and directed by David Koepp, You Should Have Left was based on the 2017 novella of the same name by author Daniel Kehlmann.
