hi

what I think was this

Anna Morgan was always unstable ( she is referred to as a woman of two halves, that one minute she was happy and proud and then  next the light would go out of her face)
Samsaras origins are recorded as a live birth -  thus indicating that she was anna morgans daughter -  but not necessarily richards. IN fact if you look on the medical records you will see that he actually requested a termination of samaras pregnancy. there are three  possible reason for this. 1) anna did some sort of voodoo deal for the child as she couldn't bear one of her own naturally ( the miscarriages) richard realised the child was evil and so wanted it dead. 2)the problem with the other children was richards genetics, anna had an affair which richard found out about and didn;t want to raise another mans child or 3) maybe richard CAUSED anna's miscarriages because he wanted his wife to concentrate on the little horsies.
whichever way samara, by whatever mechanism was possesed of pyshic abilities and so must have been aware of how much her father hated her ( i have no daughter)
What I don;t know is when samara was moved out to the barn. we know that samara caused problems for the island ( the horses adn the fish) so presumably samara was sent off to the hospital to be analysed. her unstable mother, driven mad by finally having a child - but it being so evil trys to kill her by shoving her down a well.
samara dies down there but not before mentally forcing her mother over a cliff and preventing her father from the one joy he had left -  the horses. the tape was made by her thoughts being burned pyschically onto the tape.
aidan too is psychic - that is why he has the greatest link with samara. he realises how inherently evil she is, whereas rachel only sees a damaged frightened child. samara doesn't only want to be heard- she wants to hurt.
