Abel Carnacki is a therapist. He has been listening to Jillian Hope Hodgson long enough to know about her trust issues and where they stem from. His quiet, controlled, almost hard to read tone is sometimes infuriating for Jillian, especially when she tries to talk to him about what—or who—was behind the door in their basement.
Eventually the Hodgsons go to see Abel together. He continues to dismiss Jillian's belief that Pretzel Jack is real, and Jack pays him a visit. It doesn't go well for Abel.
