Let’s face it, part of the reason The Whispers is so damn scary is because the little girl that plays Harper Weil does such a great job of creeping us out.
The Whispers is still in its infancy as we eagerly await episode 3’s airing next week, but we’re already able to pinpoint where the creepy factor comes from. Sure, most of that can be associated with the invisible force that is trying desperately to use these kids against their parents, but the rest of it?
Yeah, the rest of it lay in the wide, soulful eyes of Abby Ryder Fortson, who plays Harper Weil. That little girl can up the creep factor with a couple of words and a sad look. Here are just a few of our favorite Harper quotes, each of which should take you right back to the moment she uttered the words. They’ve packed a serious punch or two over the past two episodes.
1. ‘Mommy, you can wake up now. The game is over.’
2. ‘The game isn’t done yet. He’s looking for a new friend.’
3. ‘He said if I win, we’re going to have a domination.’
4. ‘The game has already started.’
5. ‘You know Drill, but you’re not allowed to talk to him. He says you’re it.’
6. ‘But it is a game. It’s the most important game of all, and I have to win. Please don’t make me lose. I want my mommy back.’
7. ‘Okay, What do I do next?’
There’s plenty of time for Harper to add to this list, so make sure to tune in next week and every week after that to see how many more times the adorable little lady can make us squirm in our seats. We’d guess at least a dozen more times before the finale at this rate.
