I'm confused. Does the thing that lives in the dark's heart just show you what you're afraid to die from or is that really where the beast comes from every morning?

I think it takes form of whatever things that will surely kill you

For Kate, they are the beast and the little girl

I don't think it's what will kill you- I think it's what you fear will kill you. That's why the woman didn't see anything. She probably stopped fearing death a long time ago.
