One other thing I wasnt quite clear on *BIG spoilers*

Nell became the Bent Neck Lady, doomed to haunt her younger self and eventually drive her to her suicide in a perverse and horrifying time loop. But at the same time, Ghost Nell seemed fine, as fine as ghosts get, when she appeared at random times to the other siblings to try to warn them. Especially true in the finale where she saved them. Maybe she was just the Bent Neck Lady for those horrible time-warping thirty seconds, and then her spirit was freed to just haunt the house normally? Almost like it kept her alive for the drops, then she actually died after that scream. Thats actually possibly creepier, thinking that Young Nell wasnt even seeing a ghost of herself, but rather seeing her DYING self, that she was kept alive as the Bent Neck Lady for those extra thirty seconds and forced to torture herself in her dying moments...

As for her appearances as the BNL to the other family members, Im not convinced thats literally her so much as just the house tormenting them like a dick. I think when she appeared to them looking normal, that was actually Nells spirit trying to make an effort to save them.

This is probably a dont think too hard about it, its magic thing but Im curious about the ultimate fate of her soul and what you guys think.
