This portion of the story is very intriguing. Karen and Will end up seperating, the story finally goes public, and it seems that everyone is touched in a negative way by this house. Will is drivin to a state of despair so great that it compells him to go back to the house, and in so doing basically condemning himself. He also discusses the dreams that have been plauging him since he left the house, the angish of losing his brother, the Delial story, and his inability to reconnect with Karen and the kids.
Zampano also addresses several analyses put forward by others as to why Navidson would want to go back, and what affects the house had on the others involved. The house even seems to have an effect on Johnny Truant. He is now having powerful dreams of himself as a Minotaur-type creature, and is now planning to depart for Virginia in search of this house. He even refused a follow up offer from Kyrie.
Karen did do some research on the house. Nothing significant was revealed, aside from the fact that owners tended not to stay more than a few years. As well as a journal from the 1600s written during a failed hunting expedition in which they discovered "stairs" in the wilderness, leading some to conclude that whatever had created the labryinth in the house had propbably existed in one form or another for well over 400 years.
Karen moved back into the house after Will's "Expedition #5" began (when he went missing) and one day, for no reason, his cassets and film appeared one day in the kid's room. Upon watching it, they depicted Will's last adventure in the house, which ended with him falling into an unknown abyss.

Discussion Questions:
1. Why did a window appear in Will's final expedition?
2. What was he hoping to find this one last time?
3. What posessed Karen to want to live in the house alone?
