Notice: I'm not RYAN Preston, I'm his sister, not on FaceBook, I'm eleven.

Before anyone says, "oh, you're too young to be watching Orphan, I'm about to be a child actress anyway and know everything about horror films so not scary and don't watch rude bits. Anyway, Orphan is my favourite film ever! It's so interesting! Most people say it's a pile of poop but it's not! Think about it. If you were Kate. You just lost your baby and are recovering from drinking every day and night but your adopted daughter is creepy, hurts your children and manipulates them and your husband doesn't believe you that she came from a mentally ill asylum. Suddenly, you find out her secret and she's at home killing your husband and trying to kidnap your deaf-mute five year old daughter.

If you were John. You love your adopted daughter and want to make it up for her damaged past and help and love her in every way. Until she tries to be your girlfriend and you finally turn on her. Your wife and son are in hospital! Suddenly, she kills you.

If you were Daniel. Life is perfect with your mom, dad and sister. Then, you're parents bring back an orphan who wears ribbons around her wrists and neck, reads a bible and kills birds. Your dad has lost interest I you and all he attention in focused on your number one enemy! Whoa oh ho! Then, your sister tells you that the orphan killed a nun. You go to your treehouse to find the evidence but the orphan appears with it and burns it. She escapes from the treehouse and locks you I'm! You're so scared, YIU'RE only twelve years old and jump! Blackness...

If you were Max, my favourite character. You're deaf-mute and only six years old. You in morning after the death of your unborn sister but your mommy and daddy bring back a new sister called Esther. You really adore her and love her until she kills an innocent nun right before your eyes! One day, you're brother is badly hurt and knocked unconscious and half dead. He is taken to hospital. You and your family go too. Your adopted sister gets a drink and doesn't return. You go to find her and find out that she's hurting your brother! You run to your mommy and try to tell her but she doesn't understand what you're signing. She slaps your adopted sister and is drugged in hospital for the night. You go home with your adopted sister and daddy. You go to sleep still in fear. Then, you wake up in the night and can't find your hearing aids! You're about to ask your daddy where they are when you're stopped dead in your tracks by your adopted sister killing your daddy! She sees you but you run! Your mommy runs home and kills her and carries you away traumatised. Very traumatised.
