The soundtrack starts with the quiet sound of violins and a harp. This introduces tension. A piano then starts to play getting gradually louder. After the piano plays individually for a few seconds a violin begins to play the same repetitive tune. It sound monotonous and frightening, especially the screeching violin. The music gradually builds up and changes tune until a very low droning sound starts. Other violins then also start at a quick pace, getting louder and louder building tension. The music builds and builds until it suddenly stops with the screeching of the violins, which really creates suspense as the music ends. I think this music really works in the way it gradually builds to create tension and then suddenly stops leaving us in suspense with the screeching violins. I don't think anything is bad with this music apart from the harp at the beginning which suggests to me a magical/fantasy theme which isn't suitable for horror.
