Woman in the Maze

In the ending of Woman in the Maze, Gabrielle finally uncovers the dark history of Hannah’s house. The house was cursed by Angus, a man tormented by his wife’s infidelity. He blamed Judy’s affair for his heartbreak and, in his rage, he dragged her inside the house, where he murdered her and cursed the property. His curse intertwined with a sinister magic doll and his blood, sealing the house so that any woman who enters would be trapped and drained of her life force. Gabrielle’s repeated attempts to escape are thwarted at every turn, as the house seems to shift and turn into walls, trapping her deeper inside. After discovering Judy’s diary and the tragic story of infidelity and heartbreak, Gabrielle realizes the house’s curse is fueled by anger and betrayal. She finds herself in a basement where she uncovers Judy’s body and the diary, which explains how the curse originated. Meanwhile, her lover Owen tries to rescue her, but he is misled by her doppelganger—an evil double that the house created to trap her. As Owen tries to save the wrong woman, the real Gabrielle is left fighting the house’s malevolent forces. Threatened by her double, Gabrielle injures herself, inadvertently strengthening the curse with her own blood. Eventually, Owen returns just in time to see the Doppelganger attacking Gabrielle, and he mistakenly believes she is the one in danger. He intervenes, hitting the double and helping Gabrielle escape. However, this act of rescue is complicated by confusion—Owen’s belief that he saved the real Gabrielle, while she is still trapped inside, suffering and desperate. In the chaos, Gabrielle shoots herself in despair, ending her life inside the cursed house. The house then erases all traces of her existence, symbolizing how it feeds on victims and preserves its dark secret. The film concludes with the house waiting quietly for its next victim, much like a predator waiting in the shadows, ready to claim another woman caught in its maze of curses and tragedy. Ultimately, the story reveals how the house’s curse is a product of deep-seated betrayal and rage, and it continues to trap and consume women, ensuring that the cycle of suffering persists.
