Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark (2010) Ending Explained

Creatures living in the basement transformed Blackwood just like one of them. The unique thing that happens is that they do not accept the tooth; instead, he chooses to grab him inside and change it into one of them.

Once Blackwood converts into one of them, he become the most gigantic creature. Those unearthly creatures ask for human life all time they come to the surface to turn into one of their own kind, and they prefer a child.

The creatures kept looking on sally most of the times as they aspired her to transform her into one of them.

You might not want to hear this, but the truth is that at the end of the movie, the bug creature kills Lord Blackwood. (See Annabelle: Creation (2017) Explained)

As these creatures always prefer taking a child, so they caught Kim instead of Sally. They required a human child, and for them, Kim became an easy target, so they chose to take Kim instead of sally.

As the creatures took Kim, they turned her just like them. At the end of the movie, you can also listen Kim asking the creatures to hide until the humans disremember about what happened. (See The Ninth Gate (1999) Movie Explained)

Sadly, once Kim's transformation is done, she is no longer herself. As in the end, she convinces the creatures to hide and tell them they have a lot of time until new humans show up. In the future, Kim would also be seen as haunting new humans when they come.
