The film lacks any discernible presence of LGBTQ+ characters or non-heteronormative identities. The narrative is built upon a traditional heteronormative foundation centered on the protagonist's relationship with his deceased wife.

Gender dynamics reinforce traditional hierarchies, with the narrative driven almost exclusively by the male protagonist's agency. Female characters function primarily as narrative catalysts or passive victims rather than autonomous agents.

Set in 19th-century London, the film reflects the demographic homogeneity of the era's British upper and middle classes. There is no evidence of significant racial or ethnic diversity within the cast.

The film operates within a traditional Western Gothic horror framework. It treats the supernatural as a source of individual terror rather than offering a critique of Western religious or social institutions.

There is no evidence of characters with physical or neurodivergent disabilities being portrayed with agency. The film does not engage with the complexities of neurodivergence or chronic illness.
