House of Leaves Ch XIII-XVI,

In these chapters a lot of things start important things start to show itself, the house and the people in who are affected by them beginning to become more tenses. The two children Chad and Daisy are seem drawing pictures of the house without doors or window, pushing Teppet Brookes is Chad's teacher to investigate. As she shows up she finds out what is happening. Navidson and Karen relationship has been the greatest but maybe Karen although she seems to be the other that giving Navidson the hard time about his Art, is the one that putting up with him. Kind of sad to see that near the end, as the story move on to a close there is sure to be more mystery.

The two children drawing are disturbing; do you think children have a kind of six senses?

Will Navidson ever realize what his wife has gone through for him?

Tom dies but how? In detail.

Darkness is one of the main themes in this book , what does it have to do with it exactly?

Does Johnny T have any kind of mental issues that we can pick up from this book?

I wonder what happened to Tom exactly too. I see how Holloway's flaws or personal demons led to his death. But I don't see why Tom had to go! Also, I wonder what Johnny Truant's mental issues would be characterized as, as well?
