I hadn't even considered her being received as a ghost or hallucination; that's poor storytelling on my part, I'll fix that :)

Do you think I should just have a scene with the old man cooking the father or that I should have him tell the girl what she ate after she finished eating and end it with him shutting the basement door? I'm leaning more toward the second personally.

I tried to build the twist to be that she ate her father and that she was alive (the smell when they were building the shed was meant to make readers think that it might have been the little girl's dead body that the father was smelling).
