[thunder cracking]
[metal clanging]
[eerie music]
[upbeat music] [water gurgling]
[ominous music]
[moving to ominous rhythmic music]
[light knocking]
- It's fantastic.
- Yeah, I don't know if it's such a good idea.
Maybe we shouldn't be here.
- It's gonna be fine.
Come on.
You want a drink?
- [Tomas] Uh, yeah.
[chuckles]
- Relax.
If we get in trouble it's because we're both here.
It'll be our little secret.
Let's make it memorable.
Sit.
Ready to play?
[crickets chirping]
[eerie piano music]
- Why do you like these things so much?
- I don't know.
I just want to see what's out there.
Don't you?
- I guess so.
- [sighs] Here you guys are!
- Claire, you made it.
- Wouldn't miss this for the world.
So you're really gonna do this, huh?
- Yep.
- Oh, my God.
This is crazy.
What type of sexual favor did she offer you
to get in here, hmm?
- Shut up.
Don't listen to her.
- Always listen to me.
So, what do we do?
- All right, first we have to ask the spirit world
to come in here.
But, let me give you a little background about this house.
Rumors have it that a long time ago
people were murdered, tortured,
they went missing here.
They say the spirits still haunt this house
so we're gonna try to call them in right now.
Put your hands on here.
Then you're gonna focus.
Now we need to ask permission for the spirits to talk.
[sighs]
Will you please speak with us, spirits?
Is there a spirit in this room?
- Maybe we should just call it a night.
I don't think it's working.
- This is crazy. - Wait, just give it a second,
come on.
Focus.
- Yeah, focus.
- If you're here, please show us a sign.
[heavy music]
[Katherine screams]
- Jesus!
What?
[heavy music]
What?
I can't, let's just,
get, get rid of this thing.
Let's take your cute little boyfriend
and we'll go to the bar like normal people
and just have drinks.
Cool?
[Claire shrieks]
[Claire screaming]
[loud thudding]
[Claire screaming]
[chair thudding] [dramatic music]
- Tomas!
[scary rhythmic music]
Claire?
Claire, where are you?
Where are you guys?
Tomas?
[ominous music]
[Katherine gasps]
[loud thudding] [Katherine screams]
[glass shattering]
[dramatic music]
[birds chirping]
[somber music]
- I'm sorry but you got three weeks to vacate.
That's what happens when you don't pay your mortgage.
- I'm so sorry, ma'am.
We wish you all the best
and hope you can get back on your feet.
- Hi, Mom.
I brought boxes.
- Should've brought one I can fit inside.
- Mom.
Mom, really, I don't want you
to worry about this any more, okay?
As soon as I finish my thesis we'll publish the book
and then I'll buy you this house back
or we can get you another one.
- This house has been in my family for over a hundred years.
Why would I want another one?
- I'm sure you'd like it once you got there.
- What I'd like is for you to pay off your student loans
and get out of debt so that nothing like this
ever happens to you.
That's what I would like.
Not you studying demons.
- I don't study demons.
We've been through this, Mom.
I study paranormal phenomenon as they relate to science.
I know things happen but it's not because of demons.
It's just what I'm interested in.
- [sighs] Well, it doesn't matter whether it's science.
There are some things
that people just shouldn't mess with.
- Well, I'm sure you'll be singing a different tune
when you see how well my book sells.
My publisher has really high hopes.
- Your publisher, huh?
- Yeah.
- Do kids your age even read books anymore?
- Sure.
If it's on a Kindle [chuckles].
[Katherine chuckles]
- Oh, my-- - Mom!
Hey, hey, hey!
I got it.
- [Katherine] It's heavy.
- I know, I got it.
You know what would be really great though
is if I could go spend the weekend at the old cabin.
- I told you never to go up there.
- It's just for research.
It's not like you honestly believe those stories.
- It doesn't matter what I believe.
That house belongs to your aunt.
You have no business going there.
- Well, will you at least tell me the real story?
- [Katherine] Nothing to tell.
- That's not what Samantha said.
- There's a reason we don't talk to your cousin.
I don't want you trying to go there
or speaking to anybody on that side of the family about it.
Do you understand?
[door creaking]
- Knock, knock.
Hello.
Here to help.
Ms. Fields.
[Katherine sighs]
[somber music]
So, what does your mom think about us using the house?
- I'd say she's not a fan.
- Great.
- Well, what she doesn't know won't hurt her
and besides she doesn't need to know http://worldmkv.com/
that we're going there to do witchcraft experiments
with our friends.
- Wait, um, friends?
- Yeah.
I invited Spence and Tina.
- [laughs] You did what?
- I thought it might be nice to have some extra observers.
- But, what about Tina and the whole...
- Maybe I thought it would be nice
to scare her a little bit.
- [laughs] You, you.
[both laughing]
[dark music]
So, Spence, this is the new beast, huh?
[somber rhythmic music]
- This is my baby.
Sorry, honey.
You're my close runner up.
So, Laurie, what exactly happened at your aunt's house?
- Some pretty weird shit apparently.
I mean, I don't really know much, honestly.
It's just really hush, hush.
- That's so much better.
I love undisturbed places.
- Oh, this place is plenty disturbed.
Or at least disturbing.
- What do you know about it?
- Well, my cousin's the one that told me
about all the witchcraft stuff.
She's the one that's getting us in the place.
- Wait, witchcraft?
- [chuckles] Don't worry, man.
Laurie's ancestors were good witches.
Nature witches.
- Witches, huh?
Cool.
[dramatic music]
[Spence clears throat]
- Thanks.
- No problem.
- Spence says this trip is for research?
- Yeah, it's actually for my thesis.
I have a book deal lined up as soon as I finish
the final chapter.
- That's so impressive.
- Thank you.
My publisher is pretty excited.
- Oh, this isn't self-published?
- No.
- How did you find a publisher?
- Well, actually he found me.
I think it was through the school or something.
- Did you tell Spence and Tina
what we're actually gonna be doing there?
- No.
I didn't wanna spoil it.
- Oh, that is mean.
- What?
What is it?
- Oh, we're just wanted to do a couple tests up there
and I wanted to do it in a place
that has a real history of dark magic.
- You're being so mean.
She's totally underselling this right now.
- Nick.
- All right.
There's stories about a cult sacrificing babies
at this place and shit.
- Oh, my God.
That's messed up.
- No, it's, it's not a cult, it's a coven.
- Whatever.
Somebody killed a bunch of babies
and we're gonna go sleep at this place.
- [grunts] Wait, I thought you all said
these were good witches.
- If you keep doing this
nobody's gonna wanna go on the trip.
- Well, it's too late now.
We're three quarters of the way to Dead Babies 'R' Us.
- You're such a dumbass.
[laughs]
It's gonna be fine.
- [Tina] That is so crazy.
Honey, you're being awfully quiet.
- I mean, come on.
Doesn't the thought of going to this place bother you?
- It'll be fine.
Babe.
- Don't say I didn't warn you.
[ominous music]
- So this is it.
- Hey, it doesn't look that bad.
- [Laurie] Well, yeah, they fixed it up over the years.
They lived here from time to time.
- And we have cell service.
Nice.
[dark music]
[scary music]
[light knocking]
- You guys wait here.
I'm gonna check around back.
- Oh, great, we're already wandering off by ourselves.
- You made it!
- You are here!
- Just arrived.
My love, how are you?
- I'm good.
You guys, this is my cousin, Samantha.
It's Spence, Tina and my boyfriend, Nick.
- Okay, Spence, Tina, Nick.
It's nice to meet all of you guys.
Welcome.
You guys are gonna freak out when you see this place.
Come.
Come!
[phone ringtone music]
- Oh.
Ah, a work call.
I gotta take this one.
- [Tina] Okay.
- Yep.
Yeah, it's Spencer.
[eerie music]
- Holy smokes.
- Nothing too scary right off the bat
but if you look around
you'll start to notice stuff like this.
- [Laurie] That's interesting.
- Look, pet rocks.
- The coven used these in their rituals.
Look what I found.
- Hey, do you mind if I film?
Laurie might use this for her research.
- Oh, no, knock yourself out.
- Excellent.
- Okay.
Our great aunt was a witch.
- They know.
- Oh, good.
It's usually best to get that out of the way first.
[Laurie chuckles]
Why don't I show you to your room?
- This is some crazy stuff.
- This is really cool.
- It's pretty, pretty creepy, huh?
- Hmm.
- I think you guys will be happiest in this room.
It's the least haunted, anyway.
- Oh, good.
We don't want our heads spinning around.
- No, that's terrible for your neck and spine.
Let me know if you need anything.
- Thank you.
[somber music]
- Are these the witches?
Or just scary-looking women?
- That's just how women look naturally.
[giggles]
- Well, I'm not disagreeing with that.
- Well, I hope you don't get eaten by one.
- Hey.
Where's Tina?
- Oh, I think she went upstairs.
- Okay.
Nice of you. - Yeah.
- Honey.
[eerie music]
Honey.
- [gasps] Huh?
Oh, sorry.
- Don't tell me you're gonna let a little doll spook you?
Even though it is creepy as hell.
- It's not just the doll.
[scoffs]
It smells like something died.
- It's an old house.
A lot of things died.
- Look, your friends hate me.
- [sighs] They do not hate you.
You're my chick.
They don't get to hate you.
- I shouldn't have come.
- Look, we just need one weekend to get past
all the weirdness and everything'll be fine.
You'll see.
- Well, could we have picked a weirder place
to get past the weirdness?
- Uh, maybe we just need to take a little time
to settle in,
make everything a little bit less weird.
You know?
- Not with demon baby watching us.
- Uh, it'll be fine [chuckles].
- [Nick] Hey, Spence.
- [gasps] Perfect timing.
- [Nick] Yo, Spence!
- Come on.
- [Nick] Spence!
- All right.
All right.
Let's do it.
[Tina giggles]
[hand smacks]
- Uh [laughs].
[Tina giggles]
[eerie tinkling music]
Hey, man, you sure Laurie's cool
with Tina being here?
She feels pretty awkward.
- Oh, yeah, it's all water under the bridge.
- Good.
I heard there was just way too much alcohol involved.
- [chuckles] Yeah, everyone was blackout drunk.
I don't give a shit.
Laurie will be fine.
[glasses clinking]
- Can I help?
- I'm fine, Tina.
Thanks.
- Between you and me, I'm just more worried
about the way Laurie's talking about this whole book deal.
- Why's that?
- I don't know.
I just, something stinks about it, you know?
I just don't really believe this publisher guy.
Apparently he talks a good talk.
She's got all these high hopes
for saving her mom's house and everything.
- Oh, so they are taking the house?
- Yeah.
Looks like it.
- [sighs] Shit, man.
[eerie music]
[door creaks]
[moves to scary music]
[door creaks]
[dark music]
[Laurie gasps] [dramatic music]
- Oh, my God.
- I'm so sorry.
- You scared me.
- I totally did not mean to sneak up on you.
- It's fine.
- No, it's not fine.
Look, Laurie, I just really want us to be fine.
- You stuck your tongue down my boyfriend's throat
when he was drunk.
- Yeah, about that.
I know how terrible it was.
- Good.
You apologized
and I accept your apology.
Let's just leave it at that.
- Thank you.
What'd you find here?
Is that a secret room?
Cool.
[door creaks]
- Ladies.
You wanna eat or you wanna have girl time?
- [Girls] Eat.
[all laughing]
- Come on, it's ready.
- I'll be right there.
[ominous pounding music]
[crickets chirping]
[muffled chattering]
[dishes clattering]
- Here.
- Oh, thank you.
[Spence clears throat]
[Nick whistles]
[both chuckle nervously]
- So, uh,
we're cool, right?
- You mean about me sticking my tongue down your throat?
- [chuckles] Uh, yeah, yeah.
- We're fine, Nick.
It's not like I went down on you or anything.
I would never do anything
to get in the way of you and Laurie.
[floor creaking]
[Nick clears throat]
- So, as you guys know, this place
has a very special history
that few people are aware of.
- Oh crap, we're doing this right now, huh?
- You know why we came here.
[Nick chuckles]
- [sighs] All right.
Fair enough.
Just need you to get a little bit closer to me, honey.
I'm gonna need somebody like right up against me
so nobody can sneak up as spirits can get.
- So our aunt told us stories
and then her daughters actually inherited the place.
Luckily for us Samantha kept in contact with one of them.
- So we're not supposed to be here?
- No one's allowed up here anymore.
It was just that Laurie said she wanted help
with her book so I wanted to help.
- And you know the full story about what happened here?
- The way this house was built
had something to do with the spirit world.
- Keeping spirits out?
- More like keeping one in.
- Which is why it's the perfect place for my research.
- That sounds great and all,
but what about all the weird baby stuff?
- Our ancestors were good witches.
They lived in harmony with each other and with nature.
[somber music]
[gentle chanting]
They held ceremonies on sacred lands
not far from where we are now.
They believed that certain stones
held a type of power, an energy.
They would use them for healing people.
The witches bonded in a sisterhood.
Close-knit, like a family.
In each coven there was a male witch.
A warlock.
It was when he joined that the trouble started.
[ominous music]
He became obsessed with black magic
and the control it gave him over people's minds.
With his spells the warlock was able to hypnotize people
and he started his own coven of witches,
evil witches who would serve him.
They worshiped a pagan god,
a being of true evil.
He slaughtered a ram and fashioned
a ceremonial headpiece from the blood and horns.
[moving to eerie music]
With the still warm ram's blood he drew letters
on the writhing bodies of his coven.
The arcane use of symbology was an important key
to opening doors to their pagan god.
And the warlock became obsessed with freeing it.
He became obsessed with word and number games.
He thought that they were the key
to opening gates to other dimensions.
[dramatic music]
And then came the babies.
[eerie music]
The witches would kidnap families from the nearby village,
families with newborns.
[dark music]
The warlock would force the parents to play
one of his word games but the villagers would never win.
[dark drumming music]
They would watch as their babies
were handed over to the warlock,
never to be seen again.
[ominous chanting music]
[knife slashing] [dramatic music]
He believed that newborns were able to create
a portal because they were the first to experience
a new plain of existence.
- Jesus.
Did your great aunt just want you all
to have nightmares forever?
[all laughing]
- Yeah.
That's messed up.
- I think it was to scare us out of coming up here.
- Well, I guess that didn't work.
- No, it didn't.
And, guess what?
I found a Ouija board here.
We're gonna play it tonight.
- No!
No we're not. [all laughing]
- Oh, yes we are.
I found it in the hidden compartment.
We were just gonna do a seance
but this is so much better.
Just gimme a minute.
[Samantha giggles]
[crickets chirping]
[eerie music]
[door creaking]
[Laurie sighs]
[Spence mumbles]
[door clatters]
- [Laurie] All right, which one of you assholes took it?
- Took what?
- You guys were the only ones that saw me with it.
- We're not playing any tricks.
- Uh, honey?
[ominous music]
[loud knocking]
- Nobody knows we're here, right?
Oh, it's some guy.
- Shit.
The caretaker.
- What?
- I'm not here.
- Samantha?
- You're inside the house.
- Right.
- Where's Samantha?
- [Tina] She's indisposed.
- Samantha!
- Dude, chill, man.
- She said there would just be her
and now there are all these people inside the house.
- Listen, man, I'm sorry
if there's been a misunderstanding--
- Shh, one moment.
One moment please.
It's this thing I have.
It helps me focus.
I can only talk to one person at a time.
And right now I am listening to this girl.
When I'm finished listening to her,
I have time to hear what you have to say.
- Seriously?
- It's okay.
- Samantha and I had an understanding.
No other people would be inside this house.
I, I told her it wasn't safe.
There was, mold.
And, you don't wanna breathe in mold.
I mean, if you get mold inside your lungs
you can seriously poison yourself.
- It's just for a few nights.
Can't you just overlook it.
- [Spence] Yeah, man.
- It's...
[ominous music]
Well, it's you!
- Hold it.
- All right.
You, look.
I got about $500 cash.
What do you say we just crash here
for the night so we can sober up before we go?
- No, no, that's not why I'm here.
You don't understand.
Uh, I can't take your money.
We're,
we're good.
Uh, let's just say I didn't see you,
you didn't see me
and we didn't have this conversation.
Just leave the house the way you found it.
[door slams]
- That was really weird.
- Yeah.
- [Spence] Yeah?
- What the hell did he want with you?
- I have no idea.
- Is he gone?
- [Laurie] Yeah.
He looked really familiar.
What was that all about?
- Don't worry, Tomas is a little off.
Let's get back to the game.
[crickets chirping]
[phone keypad beeping]
- No.
No, no, no, no.
Please, please, please.
Please.
[truck revving]
Come on.
[truck revving]
[crickets chirping]
- Before we start can you just admit to moving the board?
- I didn't touch the board.
- I just don't want it to affect any of the tests, okay?
So it's totally fine if you did--
- It wasn't us.
- It had to be the only other person
who knew where the board was.
- I wasn't anywhere near the table.
We all saw what happened.
- All right, fine.
Let's play.
Has anybody not played before?
- Not me.
- Really?
Okay.
So the rules are simple.
Never play alone.
Never play where someone's been murdered before
and always say goodbye before you leave.
We're gonna be breaking rule number two tonight
but it's to see how much activity we can get.
Everybody put your hand on the planchette.
[Spence sighs]
[Laurie sighs]
Is there a spirit with us tonight?
- Well, I'm gonna grab another drink--
- No.
You have to keep your hands on the planchette.
[eerie music]
- Oh, oh, oh.
- Oh, shit.
- Yes.
There is a spirit here.
- Spirit?
May we know your name?
- [All] P
L
A
Y
G
A
M
E.
- Play game.
- We are playing, dude.
- Shh.
Spirit, what game?
Uh, don't be shy.
- That's it?
- Well you probably made it mad.
[Nick scoffs]
Spirit, are you there?
- You know, maybe the spirit just wasn't feeling talkative.
- Yeah, you're right.
I mean, maybe there's another one
that's in a mood to be more social.
Come on, let's play again.
Is there a spirit here present with us tonight?
[all chuckle]
Hello, spirit.
May we know your name?
- [All] P
L
A.
- Play game?
- [sighs] Again?
- What game?
- [All] G
U
E
S
W
O
R
D.
- Guess word.
- [All] L
E
G
N
A.
- Legna?
What is legna?
- I don't know.
It said guess word.
- What does that mean?
- [gasps] It's an anagram.
- Angel.
Yeah, why don't we guess angel?
- Yes.
Spirit, is the word angel?
- Yeah.
Are you an angel?
[Spence scoffs]
- [All] G
L
E
A
N.
- No way.
- Glean?
The correct word's glean?
Seriously?
- That's really strange.
I have never had a spirit try
and play a game with me before.
- Well, spirits are said to be playful.
You never know who you're talking to.
- Or who's cheating.
- Well, you actually don't even need
a board for this to work.
- That's true.
I mean it all started in Morocco
when snake charmers would play flutes
and the snakes would bob their heads to different letters.
- Oh, I am so out if you're bringing out snakes.
You're not bringing out snakes are you?
[Tina laughing]
No, seriously, I haven't watch Raiders of the Lost Ark
because of the snakes.
I'm not doing the snakes.
[laughs] [Samantha laughs]
I'm not doing that.
- Potty break.
Sorry.
- There's no snakes.
- If there are snakes coming out here,
let me know 'cause I'm out.
[crickets chirping]
[truck rumbles]
[Tomas gasping]
[cries]
[eerie music]
[footsteps padding]
[static buzzing]
[sighs]
[phone ringing]
- Hello?
- [Tomas] She's here, Katherine.
- Tomas?
- She's inside the house.
- What?
- I told you I only pretended to be her publisher.
Her cousin, Samantha, wanted to see the house.
I, I tried to get close and ruin their plans.
I told her not to go inside the house.
But, the little brat wouldn't listen.
She, she just couldn't listen.
- Tomas, you have to get 'em out of there.
You hear me?
- I, I can't go back.
- Tomas, you have to get 'em out of there.
You understand?
- I'm sorry, Katherine.
- Please!
You've gotta get Laurie out of there!
Tomas!
[engine rumbling]
[eerie music]
- [Man] Tomas.
[scary music]
- No, no!
No!
[brakes screeching]
[car clattering]
[toilet flushing]
[Tina screams]
- What is it?
- A snake.
There was a snake in here.
- A snake?
Oh, hell no.
- Wait, are you sure it was a snake?
- I saw a tail go in that corner.
I swear to God it looked like a snake.
- I'm sure it's harmless.
Or maybe it was maybe just like a rat's tail.
- Eww.
- A rat?
Yeah, because that's way better.
- Where is it? http://worldmkv.com/
- Look, this is an old house.
A lot of things get in these walls.
Let's just continue.
- Yeah. - Yeah.
- Come on.
Let's move on to phase two.
[poker clanking]
[baby crying]
- Hey, did you guys hear that?
[eerie music]
[footsteps clacking]
[eerie tinkling music]
[man growling]
[Samantha gasps]
[door slams]
- Babe, if you see that snake you--
- Oh, don't worry.
I know just what to do with snakes.
- Yeah, I bet you do.
Babe, you mind getting me a drink?
- Sure.
For my favorite anaconda.
- Mmm, h oh.
Thank you.
- Hey, Samantha?
Sorry.
Samantha?
[ominous music]
[light knocking]
Samantha?
Hey, did you see where Samantha went?
- Maybe she went for a walk.
- It's kind of a weird time
to go for a walk, don't you think?
Did you do this?
- What?
- Just let me do it, babe.
[eerie music]
[footstep plodding]
[phone ringing] - Come on.
[sighs] Come on, come on.
- [Man] Katherine.
- Tomas?
Tomas is that you?
- [Man] Katherine!
[moving to dramatic music]
[Katherine gags]
[Katherine coughs]
- All right, are we ready?
- I think so.
[eerie tinkling music]
- How did that get there?
- I think I have an idea for phase two.
- Oh, damn.
- Seriously?
- How did you get that on there?
- It's called Hot Passion.
You said it didn't have to be a board.
Come on.
It'll be interesting.
- You forgot goodbye.
- Let's play.
- [Laurie] All right, fine.
Are you gonna film this or what?
- Yeah.
- Where the hell is Samantha?
- [Spence] She's missing out.
- Fine, let's do this before I feel sober
and I change my mind.
[somber music]
- [Nick] You got it?
- Yep.
- [Nick] Okay.
- All right, let's do this.
Is there a spirit here with us tonight?
[eerie music]
[Spence chuckles]
[moves to sultry music]
- Not bad.
- Hey, not at all [chuckles].
- [Laurie] Okay.
If it's the same spirit that was here with us earlier,
we wanna know your name.
- Oh, oh.
[moving to ominous music]
- Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa.
[Tina gagging]
- Jesus Christ!
Tina!
She's choking.
Tina, she's choking.
- Okay, we'll get her up. - We better--
- Come on, come on.
Oh, my God.
We gotta call an ambulance, P!
- Hang in there, baby.
Come on, Tina. [Tina choking]
Come on, baby. - Got her?
- Stay with me.
[moving to tense music]
- What the fuck?
There's no signal.
- [Spence] What do I do?
- [Laurie] We've gotta do something.
- Come on, come on.
- Back up, back up.
One, two, three, four.
- Come on, Tina.
Come on, baby.
- [Laurie] Tina, come on, baby.
One, two, three, four.
- Oh my god, baby.
- [Laurie] One, two, three, four.
One, two, three, four.
- [Spence] Come on.
- [Laurie] One, two, three, four.
One, two, three, four.
- [Spence] Come on, Tina.
- [Spence] Come on.
- [Laurie] I'm sorry.
She...
[Tina gasps] [dramatic music]
- Hey, hey, hey!
Hey, look at me.
Look at me.
Look at me, baby.
Look at my eyes.
Are you okay?
[Tina whimpering]
Oh, my God.
- Is she okay?
- Oh, thank God.
We're getting out of here.
We need to get to a hospital right now.
- Let's go.
- [Spence] Come on!
[tense music]
- Samantha!
Samantha!
- We'll come back for her.
- I can't just leave my cousin!
I gotta find her.
- Sweetheart, Spence is right.
We gotta take Tina to the hospital.
We'll come right back.
I promise.
- Shit. - Get in the car.
- [Nick] Are we good?
- [Spence] Yeah.
[doors slamming]
[tires screeching]
- [Laurie] Tina.
- [Nick] Put your shirt on.
- Here.
Something is wrong.
We should've seen the exit by now.
- [Spence] I didn't see any turns.
- Wait.
Look, there's a light up there.
Go that way.
- What in the hell?
- What did you do?
You went in a circle?
- Everyone pay attention.
[engine revving]
[tires screeching]
- No.
- [Spence] What is happening?
- We opened up a portal and forgot to close it.
We have to destroy it.
- Destroy what, Laurie?
- The Ouija board.
- This is insane.
- You saw what happened.
Come on.
[fire crackling]
[eerie music]
[footsteps shuffling]
- Samantha?
[man panting]
[man groans]
- Who's in there?
What the hell are you doing in here, man?
Where is our friend?
Don't try it.
Just take it easy.
- You don't get it.
None of you do.
It won't let you leave.
It'll keep you playing the game until everyone dies.
The only way to win is to get out but you can't get out.
That's the trick.
- What are you talking about?
- I knew your mother when I was young.
Just like you
she thought it would be fun to see what it was like.
Then she tried to stop it.
And just like you, she brought it back.
- What back, Tomas?
- It's too late.
You already started playing the game.
I'm sorry I couldn't help your mother.
- No! - No, no, no, no.
[gun firing] [Tina screams]
- Don't!
Come on.
- [Laurie] Where?
Where will we go?
- We burned the board, we closed the portal.
Let's get out of here now!
What?
Oh, my tires! http://worldmkv.com/
No!
That crazy asshole!
He did something to your cousin.
he's been screwing with us all night.
Either that or it's her.
- It's not Samantha, okay?
Something bigger is happening.
- Look, guys, we have to
get the fuck out of here, all right?
- Then we're gonna have to go on foot.
- Fine.
Let's go.
[skin crunching]
[Tina screams]
- Tina!
Baby, what's wrong, what's wrong?
- [Tina] My stomach.
[yells]
Oh.
[sobs]
- [Spence] What?
Huh?
Oh, my God.
Hey, we gotta do something!
[Tina screams]
- Talk to me.
Come on, baby.
What's wrong?
- We gotta get her inside the house.
Come on.
- All right, come on.
Hang on, hang on, baby.
Oh, my God.
- Go, go, go.
What can we do?
- Oh my God, you guys, she's burning up.
Can you please get her some ice?
[ominous music]
- Hey, look at me, honey.
Can you hear me?
Do you hear me?
- I'm okay, baby.
Just a little tired.
- What do we do?
Is she in shock?
- Look, we just have to keep her comfortable
till we can figure something out.
- We can't stay in here with him.
- [sighs] Don't look at his face.
Grab his legs.
[both grunt] [both pant]
Let's check his phone too,
see if he's got a signal.
Okay, you.
- Laurie, I'm thirsty.
- Okay, sweetheart.
I'll get you some water.
[water splashing]
[Laurie sighs]
- Tina, I just want to apologize for the way that I was...
[Tina murmuring]
Tina?
- [Tina] I can hear them.
All of them.
- [Laurie] Who?
- The babies.
[eerie music]
[doll creaking] [dramatic music]
- Oh, my God, no.
Tina, no!
Nick, Spence!
Get out here.
[fire crackling]
- [Nick] What happened?
- I could hear them all.
I could hear them crying.
[ominous thudding]
- No one leaves this room for the rest of the night.
We all clear?
[tense music]
[crickets chirping]
- It says here that the warlock would force parents
to solve an anagram and the ones that failed
were slaughtered and their babies were sacrificed
to the tree gods.
[ominous music]
[distant murmuring]
[wine gurgling]
- [Tina] Nick!
Oh, Nick!
I'm up here.
[eerie music]
Come on.
I'm waiting.
[dull thumping]
- Tina?
Tina?
[dull thumping]
[moving to scary music]
Tina.
[dramatic music]
Guys!
- Tina!
[tense rhythmic music]
- [Nick] Upstairs!
Look at her.
Oh shit.
Tina!
Tina.
What, what happened?
- I don't know.
She just kept head-butting the wall.
- Tina.
Wake up.
Tina, Tina, come on.
Come on, come on Tina.
Wake up, baby.
What...
[ominous music]
Tina come on, come on.
[paint tearing]
- Tina, come on.
Wake up, Tina.
Come on, Tina.
Wake up, baby.
[Tina gasps]
[eerie music]
- Let her move.
Put your hands on her.
Would you put your hands on her?
- What the hell is happening?
- Just trust me.
[Tina creaks] [neck snapping]
[Tina roars] [dramatic music]
- Wait, stop, stop! - Stop her.
- Stop, Tina.
[Tina growls]
- Come on Tina.
[tense pounding music]
- Pull her back, pull her back some.
Tina, what the hell are you doing?
Come on.
[Tina creaks]
[Tina roars]
- You guys, get her back!
- Tina, stay here.
Sit down.
- It's gonna be an A.
- You got her?
- Yeah.
Tina.
- Play game.
- Laurie, What the hell is going on?
- You gotta help me get the rest of the paint down.
[ominous music]
[Tina roaring]
[paint tearing]
[Tina growling]
[eerie music]
- [Nick] Laurie?
- This house is a giant Ouija board.
Tell us who you are.
[house rumbles]
Who are you?
[neck snaps]
[Tina roaring] [dramatic music]
- [Spence] Tina!
- [mumbles] You got her?
- Yeah.
- You got her?
[ominous music]
[Tina growling]
- What?
- Roka. [dramatic music]
Samantha [screams]!
[cries] Samantha!
- [Nick] Laurie, Laurie.
- Tina.
- [Laurie] Oh my God!
- [Nick] Come on.
- Samantha!
[crying]
- It's okay.
It's okay.
Look at me.
[sobbing]
We need to get out of here.
Laurie, come on.
[scary music] [footsteps clacking]
- You got her?
[door creaking]
- What happened?
- How the hell did we end up in here?
- [Laurie] Come on.
- Laurie, what's going on?
[house rattling]
- He's toying with us.
Roka, we wish to play your game.
We wish to play with you, Roka.
Come on.
[dramatic drumming]
- There you go.
Ah, baby.
Oh.
- What now?
[hissing music]
- We learn his rules.
[somber music]
[crickets chirping]
- Okay, so the house is forcing us to play its game.
What exactly is going on here, Laurie?
- The story Samantha told about the warlock.
I think this is him.
Roka.
[sighs] He did terrible things in this forest.
Horrific things.
And his evil, violent energy, it seeped into the trees.
And after he had a house built with that wood.
- This is the house, right?
- More and more joined Roka's circle
and over time his powers grew stronger.
But his original coven had expanded too.
They infiltrated his group and set a trap for him.
[dramatic music]
They knew they needed to rid the world of Roka
and his evil.
Cut the snake off at its head.
They took his sacred stone.
It had become as corrupted with evil energy
as he was so they forced him to swallow it.
[dramatic music]
[Roka choking]
Stripped of the power of his stone, his horns,
and his own coven, Roka's reign of evil was finally over.
These witches, they, they chopped him up
into a dozen pieces.
[Roka yells]
- Wait, these were the good witches?
[Roka screams]
- Yeah.
He was buried under the basement of this house.
The good witches knew that he could be unleashed again,
because of the black magic that he had used.
So they painted numbers and letters all over the walls
of the house so he wouldn't have a grasp of language
right at his fingertips.
[ominous music]
His spirit was trapped inside of this house.
One night when we were little,
my mom told Samantha and I a story
about a little girl who toyed with evil.
She was interested in witchcraft and she found out
about this old house
that had supernatural writings on the wall.
So, of course, she had to go and try
and find these mysterious writings.
- It's fantastic.
- [Laurie] She brought a Ouija board to try and communicate
but she broke a cardinal rule.
She played it in a house with a violent past.
And I believe she played it with her sister, Samantha's mom,
and their childhood friend, Tomas.
And the spirit she contacted was Roka.
He nearly killed her.
[ominous music]
[Katherine gasps]
[glass shattering]
Samantha's mom
was never seen again. [Claire screaming]
And the other woman?
She was hurt and she barely made it out alive.
I didn't even realize until tonight
that the other woman in the story was my mom.
She talked about it once
and then she never spoke of it again.
- Okay, so somewhere along the way your,
your ancestors gained custody of this great property.
Why didn't they burn the house down?
Destroy the vessel?
- The curse got too strong.
And there were several other houses
built from the same wood.
- Oh.
More of these fucking places.
Great.
- Roka wants to be free from this house.
If he wins, he's going to cross back over into our world.
- I'm gonna stop you.
We're talking about an evil spirit now.
I thought you didn't believe in that kind of thing.
It's not very scientific, is it?
Are we rethinking that little theory of yours?
- Nick, please.
- Look, open your eyes for once in your life, Laurie!
Jesus fucking...
- What are you talking about?
- Look.
I let things happen with Tina.
Okay?
I was drunk but I knew what she was doing.
And I knew what I was doing.
And you have every right to still be mad at me
but I need you to listen to what I'm saying right now.
Sheldon Chartoff, that is the name of your publisher, right?
I found that in the caretaker's pocket.
He manipulated you, Laurie.
Somehow he found out about your plans
to put this place in your book
and he couldn't let that happen.
He wasn't gonna publish your book.
He was gonna bury it.
He knew about the thing that was in this house.
I checked his phone.
He had been talking to your mom.
I think the two of them were working together to stop you.
- Nick, I had to do something big, okay?
My mom is losing her house.
So yeah, I put all my eggs in one fucking basket.
I didn't know what else to do, okay?
So I guess publishing my book is completely unrealistic
and everything that's happening here,
it's all my fault, okay?
Is that what you wanna hear?
- No, I don't need you to admit that to me.
I just need you to own up to who you are.
And I need you to figure out what we're gonna do now.
- We have to play the game.
It's our only shot.
- Please.
She's had enough.
All right, it'll kill her.
- Tomas said there's no way to win the game.
There's no way to get out of here.
- My mom survived this, okay?
She had to have figured out something.
She contained him.
[Tina roaring]
- Roka stop!
We'll play!
[Tina growling]
[eerie music]
Grab on.
[moving to ominous music]
[neck snapping]
[Tina grunting]
[Tina roaring]
- [Nick] What is this?
What is it?
- I-S-T-L-E-N.
- That's, uh, that's listen.
- Listen.
- Or silent.
I can't think of any others.
- [Laurie] How do we decide?
[neck snapping]
- Silent, mother fucker.
Our answer is silent.
It was silent.
It was silent [chuckles].
We actually got it right.
Yeah.
We actually got it.
- Nick, wait!
[dramatic music]
- Nick!
[door slams]
Nick! - Nick!
[loud pounding]
Nick, open the door.
- [Laurie] Open the door!
Nick!
[Laurie screams]
- [Spence] Nick!
- Push!
Laurie!
- [Laurie] My God!
[glass shattering]
- Nick!
Nick!
- [Spence] Come on, Nick.
- [Laurie] Open up the door!
[Laurie screaming]
[Roka grunts] [mirror shatters]
Oh, my God.
[Nick choking]
Oh my God, baby!
Oh oh Nick!
Oh my baby!
Nick!
[Laurie sobs]
Nick!
[somber music]
Oh Nick!
[moving to ominous music]
- Come on.
Come on.
[Laurie sobbing]
- [Laurie] Oh Nick!
- Laurie.
- My mom beat him.
We can too.
We can end this once and for all.
- How are we gonna do that, Laurie?
- He wants to cross over into our world.
That's why he needs us.
I've seen it before.
It was in Latin.
- What did it say?
- It was how to contain him.
Come on, we have to hurry.
Try and find some tape.
- [Spence] Tape?
Tape.
- Did you find any?
I got it.
Come on.
Here.
[Tina roars]
- What the fuck!
Tina.
[Tina choking]
Baby.
- Roka.
Stop, we'll play.
One last round!
- [Spence] Baby.
[neck snapping]
[Tina roars] [dramatic music]
- [Laurie] Tina!
- L-V-I-E.
Live.
- Evil.
Uh, vile.
- Veil.
Jesus Christ.
- We gotta pick one.
- Tina, listen to me.
It's gonna be okay.
All right?
You're gonna live through this.
You hear me?
You piece of shit.
That's my answer.
Live!
It's live.
I love you, baby.
You, you hear me, honey?
[neck snapping]
[Tina grunts]
[Tina roars]
- Shit, we got it wrong.
- Now!
- [Spence] No.
Laurie!
Get the A!
[Tina roaring]
[Laurie panting]
- His name was Roka.
By this name shall he be released.
And so shall he find them.
[gentle music]
[Laurie panting]
Spence!
Spence, we did it.
- Laurie, oh.
I thought I wasn't gonna see you any more.
Went out to the shed for a while and then, broke him--
[dramatic music] - No!
[slow clapping]
- Bravo.
- No.
No, you're not, you're not real.
You're not real.
- That's what I keep trying to tell you, Laurie.
None of it's real.
Your whole world's been one big goddamn illusion.
But yet you keep falling for the same tricks
over and over again.
Oh, poor little Laurie.
Always trying to do the right thing
but yet too afraid to do the hard work it takes.
- How are you even here right now?
- You brought me here.
Remember?
All of this is you.
- [sobbing] This isn't real.
[panting]
[Tina gasping]
- Laurie, please stop.
- I know you're not you.
I know you're not in control.
I knew it then and I know it now.
It's okay.
[Tina growls]
I hope you can forgive me.
[Tina groans]
[knife clattering]
[Tina growling]
[Laurie yelling]
[Roka mumbling]
- No! [dramatic music]
You have no control here!
[eerie music]
[panting]
[gentle music]
I'm so sorry.
I hope you can forgive me?
[cries]
[Tina growls] [dramatic music]
[Laurie screams]
[Laurie choking]
[Tina roars]
[gun firing]
[Spence panting]
[dramatic music]
- Is that the best you've got, lover?
- How?
Please don't do this, Tina.
[Tina roars]
[Tina cries]
Tina.
[Laurie panting]
[Spence sobs]
[Laurie cries]
[somber chanting music]
- What do you think of our anniversary?
- Our anniversary.
[laughing]
- Where's my...
There it is.
Cheers! [glasses clinking]
Now, why is your hair that way?
[mumbles] your hair that way.
[Nick and Laurie chattering]
[ominous drumming]
- [gasps] Oh.
- Oh, sorry, Laurie.
Jeez.
- Oh, Spence.
- Oh.
How you been?
- Um, good.
I, I've been good.
I've been writing every day.
Except for I'm not actually writing
to pay my bills of course [chuckles].
How are you?
- One day at a time, you know?
- Yeah.
Spence?
They're still asking questions.
- You and I have been cleared.
We survived a killing spree.
That's all they need to know.
- It just doesn't seem fair that they're blaming Tomas.
- Let the police think what they want.
You got a second chance, Laurie.
Take it.
It's what they would've wanted for us.
- Yeah.
Yeah, you're right.
- Of course I'm right.
How's your mom?
- She's doing better.
Better and better, actually.
The doctors say that it was just a mild seizure.
Now I'm just excited to see her find out
that we actually get to keep the house.
- All thanks to you.
- Spence, I really wanna thank you about offering the loan.
It was really thoughtful.
It was.
It's just, you know, working two jobs for me,
it's not gonna be, it's not gonna be that bad.
It builds character, calluses, and fatigue.
[both laughing]
- [Spence] That it will do.
For sure.
- [Laurie] All right?
All right?
- Thank you.
[sighs]
You done good, honey.
You done real good.
[birds chirping]
[dull thumping]
[clock ticking]
