The case that partially inspired this film, often referred to as the 'Phantom Suicides' or 'Ollington Sisters' case, involved the deaths of two young women in their apartment, which were initially ruled suicides but led to widespread rumors of foul play and even supernatural involvement due to unusual circumstances and the lack of definitive evidence pointing to murder.
