Well, if I was dead I would certainly not feel hunger. I think that's a big clue... Also, did anyone outside of Violet think they were alive? I think tate himself was just faking it.

Also, Violet X Tate is love
Why was Violet so upset at Tate for causing her mom's death when death is meaningless? I mean, it's just a stage there. Once you die you just keep on as a ghost. Not that much of an issue... The rape thing was just an accident, man.

Tbh, if you were a psychopathic ghost you would certainly rape Vivian too. She was very hot.
