MAN:
Lights out!
[MACHINERY GROANING]
REPORTER [ON TV]: ...struggle
which followed the death of Lenin
Joseph Stalin prevailed.
Stalin was the new face
of an old idea: Marxism.
While the Bolsheviks
firmly established
their authority at home,
the Comintern
fomented revolution
throughout the world.
Communism was on the march.
Stalin was
in the Kremlin.
But what of
the common people?
What of the proletariat?
Those who fought
to win a new world?
If we look at the history...
[LIGHTS CRACKLING]
They're frying someone, Pop.
You're on
the Hades Express, mister.
Quiet.
Death is nothing
to celebrate.
Don't matter who it is.
GIRL:
He just died.
His name was Wayne Fisher.
He was 32 years old, and he
killed a lady with a hammer.
He had a rib eye
for his last meal.
He's been on death row
at Dewbend for three years.
And his last words were,
"Go to hell."
How do you know that?
It's just in my head.
All right. It's past
your bedtime, children.
Go brush your teeth
and go to bed, please.
REPORTER [ON TV]: And history
always repeats, my friends.
The ghosts of their past
will soon become our present
if we do not
confront them head-on.
Elise, I thought I told you
to put all these toys away.
You're not listening to me.
It wasn't me
who made this mess.
Then who was it?
Christian,
shut the door, please.
You can tell me.
It was the little boy.
He lived here
a long time ago,
and he loves
playing with our toys.
- I swear.
- I believe you.
I do.
You know, you've been
blessed with a gift.
You're special.
Some people are afraid
of special people.
Your daddy,
he's one of them.
He doesn't understand
your gift.
You just keep it between us
from now on, okay?
Okay.
[]
It's time for bed.
Good night.
CHRISTIAN: Don't turn
off the light, Mom.
I'm gonna be
right out there, honey.
And if you ever get scared,
what do you do?
That's right.
I gave you this,
so that if you ever get scared,
you can go...
[BLOWS WHISTLE
THREE TIMES]
Wherever I am,
I'll come running.
But you gotta save it for
when you really need me, okay?
Okay.
I love you both so much.
- CHRISTIAN: Love you too, Mommy.
- ELISE: Love you, Mommy.
REPORTER [ON TV]: We see an
actual atomic bombing run.
Heading for the target
is Bockscar,
code name for the ship.
The radio navigator...
ELISE:
Hey.
CHRISTIAN [WHISPERING]:
What?
[WHISPERING]
You asleep yet?
CHRISTIAN:
No.
Do you ever
think about the people
who go to
the electric chair?
CHRISTIAN:
Sometimes.
Do you wonder where they go
after it's done?
CHRISTIAN:
No. I know where they go.
Oh, yeah?
Where?
[BED CREAKING]

They go into the dark.

[CHRISTIAN

Where's my whistle?
The boy is
in the closet.
It's okay.
We won't hurt you.
Come on out.
Stop it, Elise.
Come on out.

I'm not in the closet.

MAN [ON TV]:

Huh?
Put your hands on the wall.

- Quiet, Audrey!
[]
[WHIMPERING]
[WHISPERS]
Did you see a ghost?
Gerald, stop it.
Yes.
I don't want to hurt you, girl.
Just say no.
That's all you have to do.
I'm just gonna ask you again.
Did you see a ghost?
Yes, I did.
They're all around us
in this house.
They're everywhere.
AUDREY: You don't have to do this.
Please.
She's just a little girl,
Gerald. Please.
No. No, Daddy.
No, no.
[SCREAMING]
No, no, no. Take me.
Please take me.
ELISE:
Help me.
Please, please, please.
Gerald, stop!
Please, honey,
she's had enough.
[LOUDLY]
Don't! Stop.
Please don't. No.
Don't tell me how to
punish her, Audrey.
I punish people
for a living.
ELISE:
Please!
Please, not in there.
No, no, no.
No, Daddy!
No. Daddy, please,
I don't wanna go in there!
No, not in there.
No, Daddy, please,
not in there!
Daddy, let me out!
Daddy, please!
You can either
follow my rules,
and sleep under my roof,
or you can break them,
and sleep under my floor.
Don't put me in here, Daddy.
Daddy, please.
Daddy, come back.
I don't wanna be in here alone.
Daddy, please!

GIRL:
Why are you down here?
ELISE:
My daddy put me down here.
GIRL: Your daddy doesn't
treat you right.
Open this door.
There'll be lots of light.
Go on. Open it.
There's a key
hanging up right there.
Take your time. I can wait.
You're the only one

ELISE:
Good morning.
The dreams are coming back,
Warren.
Just won't go away,
will it?
How would you like
breakfast in bed?
- [WARREN WHINES]
- I thought so.
You're getting old,
little Warren. We both are.
I've been studying last week's
footage from the church basement
and we missed something.
There is movement in the frame.
- SPECS: Look, right there.
- ELISE: It's a piece of lint.
SPECS: Lint doesn't
walk across the room.
Behold.
The reason I was up all night.
- The lights.
- [ELECTRICITY WHINES]
[CHUCKLES] That's right, my friends.
It's voice activated.
No more dealing
with those pesky switches,
having to find them
in the dark,
straining fingers
as you switch them.
Yeah, that was a real problem
before, you know.
Toil in the darkness of sarcasm,
my friend.
I prefer to work
in the lights.
The lights?
[LOUDLY]
Lights!
Bad acoustics.
Natural light's better for
the environment anyway. Voil.
I truly love that you boys
are staying here in the house
But please don't try
to fix anything else
that isn't broken.
[CELL PHONE RINGS]
SPECS:
Spectral Sightings.
Uh, yes, she is.
Elise!
- ELISE: This is Elise.
- GARZA [ON PHONE]: Hey there.
My name is Ted Garza.
Nice to meet you,
Mr. Garza.
GARZA: Yeah. I'm-I'm
having some problems.
Things are happening
in my house,
and they say that
you know about this stuff.
I know some things.
GARZA: Yeah, well, I was wondering
if you could take a look.
I need... I need help
is the thing, see.
May I ask where you live?
GARZA:
I live at 414 Appletree Road
Five Keys, New Mexico.
[]
Um. Mr. Garza, ahem,
I wish I could help you,
but I really can't.
I'm so sorry.
I thank you very much
for thinking of me.
ELISE: Sorry to drag
you boys out of bed.
That man who called
today about a job?
He told me he lives in the house
that I grew up in.
I call it a house
because it wasn't a... a home.
I don't have memories
from that place. I have scars.
This gift I have
that you boys are so in awe of,
my father tried
to beat it out of me.
[]
And...
my mother,
she was killed
in that house.
She was murdered by something
that I brought into this world.
This demon wants
to use my abilities,
and it will hurt the ones I love
to get to me.
That's why I never want to go
into The Further
like I did for Quinn.
I have spent my life fighting
these things
because I can
never forget the look
on my mother's face
when she died.
So...
[SNIFFS]
I have to help this man
because I know
what he's up against.
SPECS: We'll pack up
the truck tonight.
We'll get an
early start tomorrow.
Not this time.
This one, I have to do...
alone.
[TIRES SQUEALING]

[PUMPJACK CREAKING]
[EXHALES DEEPLY]
ELISE:
Before we go inside,
I brought some clothes
for you boys.
Some of it belonged to Jack,
and it's very important to me.
GARZA:
I bet I can guess who you are.
There's no need.
I'm Elise.
- Hi.
- And this is Specs and Tucker,
my associates.
She's psychic.
We're sidekick.
Where's that?
She's psychic.
We're sidekick.
[CHUCKLES]
Sorry, I'm... I'm
not understanding.
Yeah, never mind.
You wanna come in? Here.
Come on. I'm supposed
to invite you in. Come on.
- Hello.

[DOOR CREAKS, CLOSES]

REPORTER [ON TV]: ...and history

The ghosts of their past
will soon become our present
if we do not confront them...
You still have
so much of our old stuff.
GARZA:
It was all here.
Pretty good stuff, you know?
I didn't see any reason
to get rid of it.
There's stories.
About your family.
I never listened to them
when they said that
this wasn't a place
that I should live.
You know, I looked at it,
and I just saw a little house.
I said, "Screw the stories,"
and I bought it.
[VOICES WHISPERING INDISTINCTLY]
GARZA:
Now I believe the stories.
[VOICES CONTINUE
WHISPERING]
You getting anything?
There are so many spirits
in this house,
it's hard to tell
the good from the evil.
A lot of people
died in that prison.
When did these
occurrences start?
GARZA:
Soon after I moved in.
First, it was, uh,
the little things,
you know?
Things that...
AUDREY: You've been
blessed with a gift.
AUDREY [DISTORTED]:
You're special.
You just keep it between us
from now on, okay?
[GERALD SCREAMS]
GERALD:
No. No!
You okay?
[BREATHING HEAVILY]
Yeah, I'm... I'm fine.
These experiences
you're having...
Where do they mainly occur?
Mostly in one room.
I keep it locked now.
I haven't opened it
in three months.
I'll take that one.
You wanna give me a hand?
That's good.
A little bit more.

[CAMERA CLICKS,

[CAMERA CLICKS,

When it first started,
I could hear somebody
just walking back and forth.
Someone was talking
to themselves.
You think you're going crazy,
and then you...
you actually hear it.
And you know you're not.
Finally, one day,
I walked in,
and I screamed at it:
"You stop.
"You stop.
Please stop."
My whole life savings
is in this place.
You gotta help me.
You gotta help me, please.
That's what we do.
SPECS: The camera
is so we can see
what she sees
from out in the truck.
We call it
the "Winneba-ghost."
[SNORTS]
I think
I'm gonna go there now.
[MACHINERY GRINDING]
You really are
gonna stay here all alone?
My presence tends to draw
the spirits out
of their dark,
little corners.
You need to take this.
Thank you.
Good night.

[SCREAMS]
Elise? Elise? What happened?
The whistle.
It took the whistle.
What were you doing
in there?
Thought you were gonna stay
in the bedroom.
ELISE:
Something led me down there.
The spirit of a woman.
I don't know why she said,
"Help her,"
but it's a ghost
I have seen before
in this house,
when I was 16 years old.

[SOFT SCRAPING]

Did you hear that?
Hear what?
There's someone
in the laundry room.
No, there isn't.

I'm gonna go look.
No. Don't, Elise.
Hello.
I live here with my brother,
Christian.
What's your name?
Stop it.
You're making it up.
Come out
and see my brother.
He doesn't believe
that you're here.
GERALD:
Christian!
What are you doing, girl?
There's someone
in the laundry.
[CLEARS THROAT]
There's no one in here.
You're doing it again.
You can't punish me
for this.
I never wanted it.
I never asked for it.
Sh.
If there's one thing
you've been doing
your whole life, Elise
it's ask for it.

GERALD:
Leave her be. Leave her be.
She needs to learn
that nobody else
can possibly
love someone like her.
I haven't been back here since.
I think that's
all for tonight.
We'll pick it up tomorrow.
ELISE: Christian and I
came here a lot as kids.
Do I look okay?
Yeah, of course.
[CLEARS THROAT]
GIRL:
All right.
[GIGGLES]
Oh.
[LAUGHING]
Oh. I'm sorry. I...
You just look so much
like someone I know very well.
GIRL:
Oh, really?
I'm Elise.
Melissa.
Imogen.
And you're sisters?
Yes, we are.
Tucker.
Specs.
I'm Specs. Or Steven.
Whatever. Your choice.
She's psychic,
and we're sidekick.
I'm sorry?
Forget it.
So are you guys
visiting the area?
Tough to talk about. Actually,
it's pretty confidential.
It's a poltergeist infestation
involving Ted Garza.
Do you know him? He lives,
like, down the road or...?
Ghosts and ghouls.
What he's trying to say
is we're ghost hunters.
- The three of us.
- TUCKER: Kind of like cops.
Only we don't arrest humans.
[LAUGHS]
I'm funny too.
A lot of the time.
- I can also be funny... What?
- Okay. Okay.
ELISE: I think that
that's enough, boys.
Oh, yeah?
I used to live in this town
a long time ago.
Well, good for you.
You got out.
Um. I'm really making a fool out
of myself. We're making...
No, you're not.
It's really nice to meet you.
MAN:
Ernie, how's it hanging?
Dad, over here.
- How are you?
- Hot enough for you?
[]
Hello, Christian.
Have I aged that much?
ELISE: Well, aren't you
gonna say anything?
I have nothing to
say to you.
Girls, come on.
Let's go.
- Come on.
- IMOGEN: We just got here.
Hear me out.
I'm... I'm still
your sister, and...
That only means something
if I choose it to
mean something,
and I choose it not to.
Please, Christian.
I just want you
to hear my piece.
I didn't know
how this was gonna go.
I thought you could
see the future.
- Is this really your sister?
- No, it isn't! Come on.
Yes, yes, I am his sister.
Listen to me.
You listen.
Now, when we were children,
you terrified me.
You scared
the life out of me
with stories about a monster
behind a red door,
and then you opened the door,
and you left.
You left me.
You abandoned me to
a real monster, our father.
Look, I wish you no harm, but
you stay away from us, Elise.
You stay away.
Christian.
[DOOR CLOSES, BELL TINKLES]
Christian!
Christian!
[CRYING]
I was stupid to come back here.
No, you weren't.
You're helping people.
That's what you do,
remember?
Elise.
I'm sorry.
He can be unreasonable
sometimes.
Knowing what he grew up with,
that's perfectly understandable.
He's never told us anything
about his childhood.
I've never even seen a picture.
He never told us
anything about you.
I left him alone,
and I shouldn't have.
He is a great dad,
you know?
I love him a lot.
You have no idea how happy
that makes me, honey.
Um.
- Tucker?
- ...share with me. Yes?
ELISE: Do you have the still
frames that we printed?
- Yes, I do.
- ELISE: Bring them here.
Eaten by the female,
that's why...
Tucker?
ELISE:
Tucker, I need you.
- TUCKER: Yes.
- Come on.
Here you go.
Here. You give this
to your dad,
and you tell him
it was taken yesterday
in our old bedroom.
Oh, I think he will be
very surprised to see it.
I'm so happy to meet you.
MELISSA:
Okay.
[MACHINERY GRINDING]
SPECS:
Testing. One, two.
Can you hear me, guys?
No.
ELISE: I noticed this last night,
but I couldn't quite place it.
Then Christian reminded me
that when I was a child
I saw a red door.
The entity that killed my mother
came through it.
I don't get it. A red door is
a red door. Anyone can see it.
No, it's not a literal door.
It's a metaphysical one.
Remember when I went
into The Further
to find Quinn Brenner?
I came across a red door.
And I... I passed
through it,
and it took me deeper
into The Further.
If I can find out
what it means,
I might be able to
stop the thing
[DISTORTED VOICE]
that's haunting this house.
[DISTORTED VOICE]
Well, this might help.
[DEVICE BUZZES]
I spoke to you last night.
Are you there?
Can you hear me?

do bad things in the real world.
Some of these people come

Shh.
- CHRISTIAN: What are you doing?
- You can't find her, can you?
What happened to her?
Where is she?
- We've looked everywhere.
- ELISE: Not everywhere.
[BREATHING RAGGEDLY]
[CLICKS]
CHRISTIAN:
Oh, God, no.
Imogen, call an ambulance.
Now!
[]
How did you know
where she was?
What happened to her?
There's something evil
in that house...
and I let it
into this world.
I think it made Ted Garza
do what he did,
and now it has taken
your sister's spirit,
and I'm gonna find it,
and I'm gonna finish it tonight.
I can see things too.
When I was a little girl...
I went to sleep
and floated out of my bedroom,
all the way to our
elderly neighbor's house.
Then she told me
she was leaving this world
and going on to the next.
My dad told me she
had died the night before.
I told him I already knew.
He wasn't too happy
to hear that.
Imogen, let's go.
Come on, honey.
No, I... I'm staying.
Just trust me, okay?
Come on, boys,
let's get our things
and get in the house
and get started.
[CAR DOORS SHUT]
Son of a...
ELISE: I am going to
get the attention
of all the spirits
in this house.
I need things
that were important to Garza.
Specs, go upstairs.
There is a Bible he held
very dear to him.
It was a red King James version,
and I need you to find it.
- Take Imogen with you.
- SPECS: Okay.
And do not let her
out of your sight.
- SPECS: I won't.
- Tucker and I are going down
to the fallout shelter.
I get the death chamber,
he gets Bible camp
with the most
beautiful girl on Earth?
- That's not a democracy.
- You're the only one I trust
to go down there with me.
Don't patronize me, woman.
IMOGEN: So why do you
guys dress like that?
It was Elise's idea.
She dressed us.
No, my usual style's
a lot more laid back.
It's a little...
- [GASPS]
- What?
Dude.
This is vintage.
No, this is worth a lot.
I'm serious.
We gotta find this thing.
I'm just saying.
- Gotta have hobbies.
- I'm saying.
Can't all be work.
Gotta enjoy yourself,
go out on a date.
[SCOFFS]
You gotta do
stuff like that.
There's something here.
I can feel it.
She wants me to have it.

Oh, that should do it.
- Step aside.

YOUNG CHRISTIAN:

My brother doesn't believe

There's someone

There's no one here.
YOUNG ELISE: You can't punish me for this.
I never wanted it.

She wasn't dead.

all those years ago...
she was alive.
I could have helped her.
I let him kill her.

Where am I?
You're in a special place...
where the spirits go.
Who are you?
I'm... A friend.
I don't wanna be here.
I don't wanna go
where the spirits go.
Elise...
no matter what
your daddy says...
you have to go on
doing what you do.
Never be afraid
of your ability.
Daddy doesn't mean it
when he yells at me.
He's scared...
of the man with the keys.
He's the one
controlling it all.
He's the one who opens
all the doors.
- He opens all the red doors?
- Yes.
The man with the keys said
I'm more powerful than I know.
He says he wants me
to help him open every door.
He says he'll do anything
it takes to get me.
He's standing
right behind you.

- Go, go, go.
She's on the other side.
- Somebody has to go in and help.
- Yeah,
who's gonna do that? I can't
do that, can you do that?
- I didn't say...
- I can do it.
I can help her.
I've never actually hypnotized
anybody before.
I've never been hypnotized.
Well, then you won't know
what I'm doing wrong, right?
Okay, um...
The exercise,
it's a little...
I'm gonna...
I'll put my finger there.

E.T.
[IMITATING E.T.]
Imogen.
[IN NORMAL VOICE]
That's pretty cool.
- Just look here.
- Mm-hm.
And, uh, concentrate on it
and just relax.
Imagine that your body
is made of water
and you're in the ocean.
That doesn't make sense.
- What?
- She's made of water...
and she's in the ocean.
Therefore, she is the ocean.
Would you like to do this?
- TUCKER: Thank you.

- Don't touch the subject.

Move away.

I'm going to count back

Five, four...
