Wendy is then seen grappling with an old-fashioned telephone exchange. As Jack withdraws into him/itself, Wendy is seen to be desperately reaching out to others in a need to generate a connection with others.

The next shot, where Danny is followed by the steadicam as he explores the hotel shows that someone - or something - is following him and his every move. As he comes around the corner he stumbles upon a vision of the Grady Twins.

And they make him an invitataion.
