Corrected entry: At the end of the movie, the little girl is told to go hide somewhere in the house. Later the house burns down and the family has a reunion on the front lawn, sans the little girl; apparently everyone forgot that she is still hiding somewhere in the burning house, and enjoyed a happy ending without her.

Wendy: But what about you?
Matt Campbell: I'm already dead.
Question: Shouldn't the bodies have rotted? They've been inside the walls for decades, yet still look as if they'd been dead for a couple days - maybe weeks.
Answer: It could be supernatural, but my guess is that the bodies were preserved with embalming fluid. the eyelids didn't decompose so they were preserved too. It wouldn't be too hard to acomplish since it was done in a funeral home by a mortician with a lot of expierence.
I would say that it's because the bodies are processed as they would be in a morgue. Since that's what the house used to be 'officially' before they bought it as a house. That's why the rent's so cheap.

Correction: The little girl does get out of the house, you see her pounding at the door with her brother once Matt has forced them out. You see her again once the firemen arrive at the burning house.
