where that goes, but he did drop a little Easter egg in his next film.” This teaser comes via the background of a news report mentioning a character charged with three homicides. So, you might think this is new, but… it’s actually an homage to Barker’s past.
The ‘One Wish Willow’ Company Name: A Sly Reference
But wait, there’s more. The “One Wish Willow” company name, Tabi Cat Curiosities, isn’t just a random choice. It’s a nod to Barker’s YouTube comedy series “That’s a Bad Idea.” This sly reference adds layers of complexity to the film, making it not just a standalone movie but part of an expanding universe.
Expanding the Universe: A Direct Sequel or Not?
Barker himself hinted that “Obsession” fans might not get a direct sequel. “I don’t think you’ll ever see a movie with these characters again,” he told Variety. Yet, the Easter egg in “Anything but Ghosts” suggests otherwise. So, will Nikki return?
You never know.
The writing on the wall is clear: Barker’s world is rich and complex, filled with hidden clues for die-hard fans to uncover. Whether you’re a horror aficionado or just curious about the next big thing in film, “Obsession” and its follow-ups promise plenty of surprises. So keep your eyes peeled—there might be more than one wish coming true.
