Anya Taylor-Joy praying in The Witch in front of Robert Pattinson and Willem Dafoe in The Lighthouse
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT On the surface, it seems like Robert Eggers' folk horror films The Witch and The Lighthouse could be connected in the same universe, just a couple of hundred years apart. Eggers, who will release Nosferatu later this year, has built a solid reputation for creating fantastic slow-burn horror.
The Theory That The Witch & The Lighthouse Are Connected Explained It Was Theorized That The Northman Would Be The Third Film Close Realizing the films seem to flow into one another seamlessly when watching them back-to-back, some in the horror community have theorized that The Lighthouse takes place after the events of The Witch. The theory not only comes from films' parallels but also from how they reflect on one another.
The films' natural transition of dialect for their time periods suggests a possible shared timeline as well. The Witch's dialect comes from a variation of the traditional Yorkshire accent that early New England settlers used and then continues to follow the historical accuracy in The Lighthouse with the northeastern coastal dialect that evolved from it.
But yeah, both films are me trying to commune with folk culture of my past and are me and my brother’s take on New England folk tales. So they’re certainly companion pieces."
