That lake freaked me the hell out after reading that earlier newspaper about the skeletons that would reach up and grab you
Yeah it was genius. It puts the idea in your head. Then they make the lake crossing as atmospheric and creepy as possible. That's what makes SH's horror so clever and subtle - something NOT being there is often just as scary as something jumping out at you, if not more so.
Absolute truth. I had read that newspaper, too, and I was worried. In fact, the lack of enemies in the hotel really worked to the atmosphere's advantage.
