The character of Katlyn is presented as an innocent young girl who is dramatically possessed by the devil at night. She wears a long white robe to portray her vulnerability and purity, this is a stark contrast to the black worn by the devil. A girl wearing a white robe also features in the film 'The Ring'. Also similar to our film, the girl has her long dark hair covering her face, this adds to the effect that she is possessed. The character of Samara in the film 'The Ring' is quite similar to our character Katlyn. They both look the same and have similar issues. However, Samara, unlike Katlyn is not possessed, she is already dead. Samara's role in the film is to haunt and torture people, which in a way is similar to our film because Katlyn tortures people, but not as a choice, she is forced to do it by the devil.
Another character from a film which is like our main character Katlyn, is the character of Leah in 'The Children'. This character is a young girl who turns on her parents and starts to torture them, along with her brother and cousins. The girl, although is not visibly similar to Katlyn, is similar in a way that they are both possessed by an evil spirit and this leads them to do evil things, such a harming other people and in some cases killing them. Leah looks like an ordinary young girl, however, throughout the film we discover she is in fact the one controlling the actions of the other children, so she in a way could be compared to our characters of Katlyn and the devil.
