White Green Aesthetic Minimalist Blank Document Border 1 2 1

‘This property comes with a special tenant. Lives in the basement. She is tied to the property…..you can’t let her out of the basement’

Mr. Lark, who owns an ancient bar, records it for the next owner of this bar or discotheque. He is gonna burn him with that special tenant(we don’t know yet who that is). But eventually only he dies, the fire can’t touch her.

Iris Lark, the daughter of Mr. Lark and next owner, stays away from her father. She even introduced her father as dead to her friends. Suddenly she gets real death news.

Iris, for the first time at her father’s property, decides to stay over the bar because she needs shelter and if she doesn’t take the ownership now, it will be sold. At night, when she is asleep, a man named Neil intrudes in. He has come to see her wife who is tied up in the basement. Iris doesn’t understand what he is talking about.

Next day, Iris takes over all things that her father left for the new owner. She gets some old photos, a record CD etc. Meanwhile, Katie reaches the pub and Iris tells about her plan. She is planning to take money from that man, Neil(who said his wife lived here) as they are reckoning he is just looking for some thrill, there is no wife down there.

As usual, Neil comes at night and Iris and Katie go down there to see what happens. A baghead(a deformed woman covered her head with a bag) woman comes out and moves towards Iris and starts obeying her. When the man wants to use Iris to connect with his wife, she demands double money and he agrees.

This Baghead can be transformed into any person if she swallows that particular person’s belongings. Neil ties Baghead’s hands when she is galloping the ring(Neil’s wife Sarah’s ring). But surprisingly she is transformed into his mom. Neil at first doesn’t want to face her but as she is in front of him now, he spill out his questions like why she did suicide.

At first mom tries to have some sweet talks but soon she flaunts her real face. She actually couldn’t stand Neil because she never wanted to be a mother, everyday would feel like death. Then mom suddenly goes out of control and throws dirty water through her dirty mouth.

Iris orders her to get back on the hole right away, she obeys her. They come out of the basement. That ring was Neil’s mom’s before he got that ring to Sarah, that’s why Baghead got confused, so Neil wants to do it again to say goodbye for the last time. Iris rejects him.

Baghead obeys Iris because she is the new owner now. Next day, Iris learns from Mr. Lark’s recording not to let Baghead out of the basement, that will make her uncontrollable. She obeys the owner within the basement limit. Iris convinces Katie to stay here and to let Neil have the chance to meet his wife. In exchange, she will get enough money to open an art studio.

Heading to A Miserable Life; Baghead 2023:

She draws a line writing ‘Do not cross’ on the last step of the stairs so that she can’t overstep it. Katie gets to know about a previous owner ‘Otto Vogler’ who took his own life after his family tragedy. Maybe this man holds any significance connected to this pub that we will know about later.

That night, the ritual starts again. This time Baghead doesn’t get confused, Sarah shows up. Neil told everyone that he will say goodbye to his wife but his words are different now. He asks Sarah if she was seeing someone. Sarah wasn’t seeing anyone but she wanted to escape as she just couldn’t stand the thought of being with him any longer.

Iris immediately covers her head up and sends her back to the hole. Iris and Katie go to the advocate’s office but that is sealed for many years. The solicitor’s photo shows that he died many years ago. He knew everything about the pub, he just had to find some sucker to their name on the line. Katie tries to make Iris understand that the longer she is gonna stay, the more tragic her life will be. Although Iris is still overconfident about herself.

History of Baghead witch; Baghead 2023:

Katie is going to Friedland where Otto Vogler and that Solicitor worked once upon a time. She finds out the Solicitor knows the solution to get rid of it. She delivers a voice message to Iris right away. Meanwhile Iris brings her father using Baghead and asks who that Baghead woman is, how she got there. Mr. Lark can’t answer her question that agitates her. If her father had spoken to her, this wouldn’t be happening. 

Iris is the owner of it as long as her name is on the ‘ownership will’ so she burns it. Katie comes to the pub and awakes the Baghead to bring back Otto Volger. He states,

‘There is no way back. Iris’s fate was sealed 400 years ago when an ancient brotherhood discovered a woman who could conjure the dead. The brotherhood tried to abuse her power. But when she refused, they branded her a witch and burnt her at the stake. But death couldn’t hold her. Rising from the dead, her vengeance was ruthless. To stop her, they imprisoned her in this underground tomb. Many years later, the descendants of the brotherhood opened the tomb to abuse her power again.’

From that day, the more people use her, the more she gains power over people that led them to death.

Ending Explained of Baghead 2023:

Katie can’t accept the fact that her best friend Iris won’t be able to skip this misfortune of hers. The two minutes are over and Baghead flaunts her real face. Conversely Iris gets Katie’s text waking up and goes to the hole even if her father told her not to go there.

Iris is about to leave with Katie then she realises it’s not Katie. She is dead. Katie runs to reach the gate before her and she does it with the help of Neil. Neil and Katie plan to seal the gate forever but she falls to sickness.

When she wakes up, she overhears that Neil is planning to kill Iris bringing back Sarah in the basement. Neil wants to be the new owner to be the new guardian but it requires the death of Iris and her permission. Iris runs to avoid death but eventually Neil kills her.

Neil tells Baghead to bring her back as he needs the permission. Iris comes back but kills Neil obviously. She doesn’t need anyone to follow now as her name is still on the deed(will). She is her guardian now. She can do whatever she wants. In the end we see Baghead, disguised as Iris, get out of the cursed and burnt pub.
