I was born and raised in the area the film is based upon. The Black Monk and this history of the house is well known to locals and a lot was left out of the film.
I suppose one thing that comes across the wrong way is that when the proverbial hits the fan, us Northerners take on the laugh or cry mentality. Which comes across in the film, however, if you are not used to how we deal with utter turmoil (try to turn it into humour) then you might think that the event is made light of when indeed, it's a very horrible encounter at best.
What the film show's you is only the tip of the iceberg, there was a lot more that wasn't captured.........
