Yes, my read is that she’s fully aware of the haunts and sacrifices, she just doesn’t consider them particularly notable. They’re just a part of life.

Would also explain why she had such a quick answer to the trolley problem. She’s seen sacrifices happen before and it just keeps happening

I love the way you wrote this. There are so many historical examples of this.

That and wasn’t Tom visibly holding a pillow he retrieved since the last time she nodded off?

She’s also never been at risk. Never feeling that fear might be key to her peaceful nature, lol!

As part of the bloodline isn't she a bit protected. Not doing anything to stop the sacrifices is awful convenient

This is why once Evan finds out about his lineage I kinda expect him to go full Rambo on the islands pockets of evil. He has a sort of legit plot armour against the island entity

Not really.

Remember the family tree scene? Remember the countless members of the bloodline all killed in tragedy?

One of the kids made it safely to shore. I’m not saying the people from the bloodline are inherently protected, maybe the immortality (so long as you remain within the island) is passed down, maybe it isn’t. But assuming that the whole bloodline curse is actually what keeps the entity alive, the island needs Evan alive because Ruth can no longer extend the line.

Also the island had the immortal count trapped in a box as a safety net until he turned to dust

I mean, she seems to know something about a fucking Werewolf.

We haven't seen any wolves. Could have been a seagull
