All language subtitles for The.St.Francisville.Experiment.2000.Eng.DVDRip.x264-zyuranger

Of all the haunted places
in the United States,

St. Francisville, Louisiana,
has the highest number

of reported hauntings.

As a filmmaker
and a fan of horror,

I decided to take four people
with video cameras,

teach them to hunt ghosts,

and lock them in a St. Francisville
estate overnight.

The events that you are about to
see take place in one evening,

and everything you see
is real.

I'm qualified
for this experiment because...

I'm a filmmaker,

and they need somebody
who's quick on their feet,

with a good sensibility
of where the camera should go,

and what kind of feelings
you should give the audience,

what kind of camera angles
I'm gonna throw at you guys,

so that's why I'm qualified.

I know I qualify
for this experiment

because I've had
a long history of interest

in the paranormal
and the metaphysical world.

I think I'm qualified
for this experiment

because I've had
my own ghost experiences.

I've never actually
chased them, but...

if I'd known there were ways
to do it like I do now,

I definitely
would have, so...

Well, I think I'm qualified
for this experiment

because I was a history major
in college...

I thought maybe we would
start out with the basic stuff,

motion detectors.

We'll have them ready for you
before you go into the house.

The idea behind them is,
when all of this first started,

back in the '20s and '30s,

when people really started
to do investigations,

they used to keep jars of flour
with them all the time,

and the flour would be
sprinkled on the floor.

If anybody passed through the area,
ghost or otherwise,

they would leave
footprints behind.

This is probably
the simplest meter to use.

It's a digital meter.
All you do is turn it on,

you get a readout on it...

so that it tells you exactly
what it is you're looking for.

The only problem
with a meter like this

is that it does not
tune out...

natural or artificial sources
of electromagnetic energy.

This is a standard
tri-field meter.

This one doesn't do a combination
of electrical and magnetic,

it only does magnetic.

Now, these "phaser-like"
devices--

this is an infrared
non-contact thermometer.

We call them "thermo-scanners,"
because it's easy to remember.

What this does is,

you push this button,
you fire it like you would a gun,

and it takes instantaneous
temperature readings from the air.

The theory
is that ghosts,

when they're disrupting
the electromagnetic field,

because that's what
they're comprised of--

to be able to manifest,
they need energy.

To get energy, they pull it
from the atmosphere around them.

When they do,
it makes the temperature drop.

That's why when you hear,
or read anything about ghosts,

you always hear
about "cold spots."

That's the scientific
explanation of a cold spot.

To get proof would be awesome.
It would kinda prove...

my own ghost stories
in a way, you know?

So...

and whether or not we can get
the ghosts to move on,

or whatever it is
to leave the house alone,

I guess that's great
for the people who live there.

If I lived in a haunted house,
I wouldn't want the ghosts to leave.

It would be nice
to have them.

How do I feel about going
into the house?

I feel really nervous,

I feel really anxious.

My stomach's been on edge
this morning,

but I feel excited 'cause--

I'm excited because
it's totally new,

and it's gonna be
this real challenge for me,

because
I get really scared.

I'm not exactly too sure
whether ghosts exist or not,

I think it gets a little bit
more deeper than that,

because
if there are ghosts,

then that means there's
gotta be something else...

outside this life.

That's something
I'd like to believe in,

so I hope
that going in there,

I will see something
that will confirm any beliefs...

that I've had as a child,
or right now--

about what happens
after death.

I think that my curiosity will
probably outweigh the fear...

At least, I'm hoping.

I think that
one of my main goals

that I personally set
for myself

was that I wanted
to face my fears now.

If you know very much
about St. Francisville at all,

it is kind of a cluster--

a historic cluster
of haunted houses--

I'll be honest with you.

Almost every plantation
around here

has a ghost story of one sort
or another, a lot of them.

You've got a lot of violence,
history,

the Civil War, slavery,
all combined.

Something about this area seems
to attract that kind of thing.

The house was chosen,
mostly, for the reason

that it may be connected
to these murders in some way.

That's all I want to tell you.
I don't wanna give you particulars.

I don't wanna tell you about ghost
sightings that have taken place.

I'd rather you guys go in cold,
and investigate on your own.

Sarah, tell me about
Madame Lullory.

Madame was the cr�me de la cr�me
of New Orleans aristocracy.

She lived on Royal Street,

in the most modern house
in New Orleans,

the first with gas lighting,
with her third husband, Dr. Lullory,

and her two daughters
from previous marriages.

One night, Madame was having
a Mardi Gras ball,

and she once again
excused herself from the room.

She left...

people heard muffled sounds,
and things like that.

Madame came back,
and she was very excited.

Shortly thereafter,
a fire broke out in the kitchen.

As it turns out, when
the fire department arrived,

there was an aged slave
in the kitchen,

and she had deliberately
set fire to the house

rather than continuing to live in
the conditions she was living in.

She was chained
to the wall,

with no more than
two foot of chain.

Over a year she'd been chained there.
She couldn't leave the kitchen.

All she did was cook
and sleep on the kitchen floor.

So she deliberately set fire
to the kitchen,

hoping to escape.

When the fire department
saw this,

it piqued their interest
about Madame.

They'd heard the rumors,
but never really knew if it was true.

So with the excuse of looking
for burning embers,

they searched the house
room by room.

This was a 40 room mansion.
It was tremendous,

three floors.
It was half of a square block--

it was a beautiful house.
They searched room by room,

painstakingly looking under every
piece of furniture and every closet,

Iooking for anything that would
validate the rumors about Madame.

They finally got
into the attic,

and there was a room that seemed
to be locked from the inside.

They called more people
and forced the door open.

When the door opened,
they were immediately sent back

by what they thought
was the stench of death.

But on further examination,

it seemed everyone
was alive in the room.

The first person they saw
was a small 12-year-old boy

who, half of his face
had been peeled away,

his skin removed,

and his muscle tissue and his veins
and his bones were exposed.

The wound had since been infested
with disease and insects.

And he was kept alive.
He was force fed.

He was taken care of well enough
so that he stayed alive.

Another woman,
they believe his mother,

was forced into a cage no bigger
than that the size of a medium dog

so that all her joints were broken
when she was forced into the cage.

When they took her out, her joints
had reset at obscene angles

so that she looked more
like a crab than a human.

There was a gentleman
tied down to a table.

It appeared that Madame attempted
to perform a castration on him.

Not a simple castration,
it looked more...

Iike an early attempt
at a sex change operation.

All about the room there were
blood encrusted knives and devices

that looked like medical
equipment.

There were red-stained
drinking cups and saucers.

There were bottles
filled with red substances.

Later on,
people examined them,

and they did believe
it was blood.

At the time that the firemen
were searching the house,

Madame knew, "I'm busted.
They're gonna find me out."

So she was collecting some
of her things into a coach below.

She had her coachman,
Arstesus, assisting her.

There was an angry mob
gathering on the street below.

Arstesus drove the coach
through the gate doors,

through the angry crowd
of people, and fled away.

Since then, nobody's had any
actual proof of where Madame is.

Many people have their
theories, though.

Some people believe that Madame
may have fled to St. Francisville.

So, Priestess Jones,

we're here in St. Francisville
at a plantation

that we feel the Lullorys
might have come to

when they fled
the French Quarter.

We're sending in four
young people into this house

to investigate the possibility
that the Lullorys did come here.

What kind of things do you think
they should expect,

or what kind of activity
do you think they might find?

Maybe a heaviness.

People may sense that there's
something in the room,

but they just
don't know what.

How dangerous could
this be?

How much is there to fear
from spirits?

The thing that one
must be cautious of

is that these energies
will attach themselves

to the people
who may be leaving.

But it's a simple thing
of just doing a cleansing,

a prayer of protection...

So wait a minute, you're saying
that they might bring out--

they might bring out
spirits with them

and take them with them?

You have a friend
who actually lived in there?

Because it--

Tell me about that.

Yes, back in the 1960s
a family bought the home.

They're some friends
of ours

and they grew up for a number
of years in that mansion.

And they told
some fascinating stories.

On dark, stormy nights,
they could hear a young girl

screaming out
in the courtyard.

Oftentimes, as children,
they would see

a dark figure of a man walking
up and down the balconies

and it looked like he was
covered in blood and chains.

They also saw the figure
of a woman carrying a bullwhip

who was screaming
in French.

Who else could it be, but possibly
Delphina Lullory herself?

Throughout the years there's
been newspaper documentation

of occupants of the home
experiencing the same type of things.

What types of activities
might they expect

if the Lullorys had been there
continuing these practices?

If they were conducting
the same sort of experimentations

you'll have a high concentration
of negative energy.

You're gonna have a lot of pain
that's been left there,

a lot of sadness
and fear.

But more importantly
than that,

a lot of anger,
particularly if,

as in the case with
the New Orleans location,

there were bodies
that were not found

until many,
many years later.

There's possibly even bodies
that haven't been found yet.

So you're saying
this could be dangerous?

I'd certainly think that...

if there's some bodies
that were never recovered,

that those spirits are
probably very, very angry.

They're also probably very anxious
for people to know their story.

There's no telling
what could happen.

Come on, everybody!

Look at that!

Oh, my God!

I think I need to tell
everybody something.

When we get in there,
we need to talk to that house.

I don't know if anything's
in that house,

but we need to tell it
why we're here,

what we're planning
on doing,

and asking
for its permission.

It's for protection.

Hold up.
I gotta get my stuff.

Madison's
creeping me out, dude.

She's not gonna hold up.
She's totally not gonna hold up.

I'm gonna smack her.

I'm serious.

- She's spooking herself out.
- Yeah.

A few things
before we go in--

you guys are in here
for the night.

You guys can come out when
the dawn breaks on the horizon.

We shouldn't even go out
on the balcony?

No, all the doors
and windows are locked.

Are we going
to have to separate?

No, at this point you guys
don't separate.

- Can we open windows?
- The whole house is locked tight.

- The windows are shut?
- Yeah, the windows are--

the place is
all barricaded.

You can get out through
the front door, all right?

You are free to explore
the entire place, okay?

So let me hand this
to somebody.

Ghost hunter.

- I'm handing it to you.
- I hardly have hands.

How stuffy is that place?
Is there a lot of ventilation?

I guess you'll find out.

( laughing )

I brought a tank top,
if I get hot.

You guys all set?

All right, there you go.

Where's the other camera?

- I have one.
- I'll give it to you now.

Bye, guys.

I cannot believe
we're doing this.

It's so insane.

Let's check
this place out.

Did anybody ever hear
about how old this place is?

Let's not forget the food.

Oh, is this our food?

How nice of them.

One of us walks in,
we'll hand it in.

- Are those Girl Scout cookies?
- No!

- We can't come out.
- We need to go in and talk first.

We gotta bring this food in.
We can't come out.

I'll go in and you can
hand me the stuff.

No, it's not that.

We need to make peace
with the house.

We gotta get
all this stuff in, too.

Guys, come here.
It's so awesome.

What do I do
with this food?

This is so awesome.

Tim, it's rad.

You know what?

I'm not a psychic, but I'm
feeling kind of scared suddenly.

Guys, check this out!

It's so cool!

I've got hair standing
on my arms.

Guys, I feel like
there's no air in here.

It stinks.

- What's wrong? Madison?
- What?

What's wrong?

- Talk to me.
- I don't know, okay?

I don't know.
I've never felt like this.

- Like...?
- It just feels...

it feels heavy, like there's
something in this room.

I feel like
there's something here.

That's what
we're here for, so that's good.

You guys...

- What?
- What?

Where's Tim?

- He was right behind us.
- He came in with me.

Tim! Tim!

Hey, Tim!

Tim!

Boo!

Oh, my God!
I'm so gonna kill you!

My God!
Tim, you suck!

That was so funny, dude!

- That's not funny!
- It's perfect!

Guys, this is really serious.

We are in this house,
we gotta take it seriously.

- It was a joke!
- My God! That's it!

- It wasn't funny.
- It was a joke.

That is it, Tim!
If you do that again...

Can we turn the lights on?

Like I wasn't
freaked out enough!

Uh!

( screaming )

Tim, you're all right?

Tim, are you okay?

- Calm down, all right?
- Oh, my God!

It's okay, it's okay.

- Oh, man!
- Tim, are you all right?

Oh, God! That's crazy!

- Tim, you all right?
- I'm fine, I'm fine.

- I wanna get out of here.
- Ryan, we're here for the night.

It's an electrical thing,
okay?

It's an old house,
this stuff happens.

Guys, can we get
out of here?

I think this is the perfect time
to make peace with the house.

Yes, let's go.
Let's make peace somewhere else.

- Come on, deep breaths.
- Something did that.

I know something did that.

( heavy breathing )

I would like to say
that myself,

Madison, Ryan,
Paul and Tim--

we're all in this house,

and we would like to surround
this house with white light.

We would like to surround ourselves
with white light for protection.

White light, the protection
of the universe and God.

We ask permission to be
in this house

we come in peace
and we come to help.

We may not be able
to understand everything,

but we want to try.

- Amen.
- Okay.

Communication.
Hugely important. Got it?

Whatever you're feeling,
keep it, all four of us.

There shouldn't be things
between two or three people.

Nobody should be left out.

I promise to communicate
everything.

I felt like I need
to say a prayer.

We just had one.

- I need to say my own.
- Okay, say it,

but I don't want this to be
a prayer meeting all night.

Maybe you should say it
out loud.

No, she needs her own.

Okay.

How do you guys feel?

I feel more afraid of
my own fears than anything else.

- Really?
- Yes.

I was fine until chandeliers
started falling out of the sky,

and almost
got me electrocuted.

It's weird when you walk into
a place and suddenly get terrified.

I got this scared feeling,
I'm not even sure of what.

We need to make
a home base.

So we should probably at least
look at the first floor.

The kitchen obviously is not--

- This is a really good home base.
- This middle section?

I need to find an outlet.

We have to test the outlets.
There's one on the floor.

Let's set up our home base
and find out what our missions are.

That's the most
important thing.

First things first. Let's see
if this light thing works.

Paul, be careful!

There! Beautiful.

- Oh, my God! There's light!
- Don't get too excited.

Don't get too excited,
it's not going to stay this way.

Before we go further into the house
exploring, let's stick together...

The light just worked but I know
it's not going to stay on.

We don't know what to expect.
I gave a blessing for the house.

Actually,
it was for me.

You see, I don't like
being closed in.

But I really don't
want to talk about that.

I don't think you should
say what you don't like.

Don't even
say what your fears are.

I'm feeling better now.

- You feeling better now?
- Just slightly.

Ghost Log One... narrowly
escaped death by chandelier.

"Instructions.
Getting settled.

Locate the living room
and set up base camp."

"Designate a team leader."

- Okay. You.
- I agree.

- Tim?
- I know...

You're behind the camera,
you seem right.

Because, you know,
your position here

is that you have a gift
we don't have.

You're feeling
things we don't know.

So it's up to you
to tell us

if a room feels
a certain way to you.

- We have our own intuition.
- Exactly. She's here for that.

- This is the temperature meter.
- Okay.

Just point it, like
at the door, like that...

It says 75 degrees.

- So that means...
- That door is 75 degrees.

So that wall, too.

Every room we walk into, I'd like
you to hit all four walls.

It's like a guest room,
I guess?

We'll call this one the Right
Room and that one the Left Room.

- Let's call it The Woodpecker.
- The men's parlor and the ladies'.

- The Woodpecker Room.
- The Woodpecker...

All right, that's cool.

Woodpecker Room.

Got that?

- The Woodpecker Room?
- Do you see why?

Turn around.

Okay, I see.

Did you guys notice
that clock is not working?

No, it's not, no.

It says three minutes
to 7:00.

- Hold on, I can't see
- What?

What was the meter reading
in the last room?

It all averages
to about an eight.

( rumbling and creaking noises )

( gasps )

What was that?

- Who was there?
- Uh, something made a noise.

I thought it was
a person.

I thought I saw
something.

I thought I saw
something, too.

Here, there is a noise.

I heard it.
Let's get the job done.

Here. Right here.

All right. This wall,
reads 74 solid.

- I felt a cold spot.
- It's not cold here.

- Yeah?
- Yeah, there was a cold spot.

I don't feel anything.

It's 74.

- It's not cold over there.
- I don't feel it.

Here. Right here.

- It was creepy in there.
- Yeah, I felt that cold spot.

That scared me.
My adrenaline's been going.

I've never felt a cold spot.
I wish the girls would tell me.

Oh, there you go!

I felt another cold spot
when I walked in.

- I was gonna say something.
- Yeah, say something.

Yeah, right here. Whoa!
Way up, way up over 100.

I'm feeling something
right here.

It's just spiking.

- Look at that 70 on my wall.
- I'm creeped out, man.

It's that weird cold spot.

That and everything
making noise...

You're creeping me out with that
cold spot thing.

I'm serious, I wouldn't lie
about that.

It was weird, wasn't it?
It was like on my skin.

You think all this
is real?

- What do you think?
- I don't really think so yet,

but it's scaring me, but I don't
really think it's for real yet.

Yeah.

I'm scared because I'd be scared
of the carnival haunted house.

I'm scared because
we don't know the place,

it's dark, and everybody's freaking
me out with all these things.

Like every noise
is freaking me out.

Maybe I should borrow
a bowl,

my stomach is like explosive,
really powerful.

Everybody's watching your
stomach.

- I'm serious!
- Can I throw up?

I feel like this thing
can totally get me!

I haven't touched skin
in years!

Is this haunted room actually
stretching,

or is it
your imagination?

- Hey, yo!
- What?

- Get down here!
- What?

Did somebody call
my name?

I heard somebody call
my name.

Get down here!

I swear,
I've got goosebumps.

I really heard somebody
whispering my name.

A man or a woman?

A man, in my right ear.
He said Madison.

Come on, you guys!
Hurry it up!

Oh! The door just opened.

- I saw it open.
- What happened?

I was in there, putting
a battery in this thing,

I started walking in through
that doorway right there...

- This doorway, right here...
- ( Ryan laughs )

She's getting nervous,
that's all.

- You guys...
- Let him talk.

( doorknob clicks )

- I heard that.
- It's the kitchen.

It opened on its own!

- Yes, we just watched it.
- Camera wasn't on.

What? The camera
wasn't on?

- I was putting the battery in.
- That's why it happened!

Do you know why ghosts--
people get so frustrated...?

'Cause people scream
and say whatever they want.

Those people get really...

Listen, people get so
frustrated because

they go into a house
and nothing happens.

It doesn't matter if the house
flies if we don't get recordings.

This is an old house,
and old houses creek,

old houses do weird things, and I'm
saying that every little thing...

we cannot jump and freak out
and think there's a ghost here.

Nobody's even listening.

I feel something
by my right arm,

I feel something
by my fingers,

and I don't think it's
a bad thing.

Can you appreciate
that it's here to communicate?

- I appreciate it.
- Absolutely!

I'm saying that every
little thing in the house,

you cannot jump
to a conclusion,

- "Oh, my God"!
- That is so funny!

There's no open windows
in this place.

I'm sorry,
I didn't mean to yell,

but it's true,
there's no open window.

I've got a really
neat question.

It smells like oldness.

- The house smells like that.
- Let me smell it.

Let me smell it.

- Now you can smell me.
- It does, you guys.

- It totally does.
- It's an old man.

The one that said
Madison's name.

No, it wasn't an old man
that said my name.

But it's the smell
of an old guy, right?

But the guy that said my name
sounded very young.

It's all right,
we're in a haunted house.

It's bound to happen.

Okay, let's go.

I love all the ghosts.

That's the right attitude
to have.

He's got it!

I don't love
the ghosts.

No, you don't.

How would you like it if someone
told you your house is haunted?

I'd love it!

I'd be so willing
to live there.

- I felt another breeze go by me.
- Yeah, I feel it.

I did too.

- Whoo! Look at that!
- I was looking at that.

Oh, my gosh!

There was a light there
at some point.

I've got a bad feeling something's
gonna come out of that.

A good feeling.

- No, I don't have that feeling.
- You must hate ghosts tonight.

- Here... oh!
- I'm not sure of anything.

What?

There was a huge roach!
Don't freak out. I'm sorry.

It's huge!

But it's gotta be icky
if there's no lights in here.

Can't you kill them?

Go! Move! Go away!

I love ghosts!

There's a draft
in here...

I think it's a draft, too.

These were open so
that we notice things.

What's that?

- That's not to the outside.
- That's a bathroom, I bet.

- It can't lead to outside.
- It's a bathroom, I bet.

- Want me to open it?
- I don't know.

Think someone's gonna
jump out?

- It's not a bathroom.
- What is it?

Looks like a basement.

This is where the draft's
coming from.

- I'll check it out.
- Let me go, too.

It's cold down here.

- ( step breaks )
- Ah!

- You all right?
- Yeah, I'm all right.

Check this out!

Ugh.

- Oh, my God!
- Let's see what's in there.

- This is medical shit.
- Oh, jeez! There's blood.

- Oh, put it back, please.
- There's blood on it.

Careful.
Just put it down.

Come on,
let's get out of here.

Hold on.

Wait, don't leave me
alone back here!

You don't have
to be afraid.

- Oh, like you're not!
- I was!

I'm writing
dining room door opened.

I'm writing this down.

My heart's pumping...

We still gotta go
into the attic.

So what are we calling
this room?

Looks like a girl's room.

"Girl Room."
She's on the wall.

( rumbling )

- Oh my God!
- Follow us this way.

- Stop, please!
- I didn't mean to scream.

You guys, I'm scared.

The door just went like this...
and I saw it.

Do you understand?

It happens when the camera
isn't in motion.

Do you understand it happens
when--

it happens when the camera
isn't on it.

Nothing happens when
the camera's on it.

Could somebody turn
the lights on, please?

It's not a bad thing.

I love all the ghosts.
I love...

Hey, guys, come here.

- I love all the ghosts.
- Listen.

I wanna show you what happened,
so that you know.

It went like this.

It made a noise,
and it scuffed,

and you know what?
There isn't any...

There's a mark on the floor
from where it scuffed.

No, there's not.

But it scuffed,
it made like...

a scuff noise,
and it got my attention.

It did it because
it wanted my attention.

I know it.

Great, no electricity
up here, bro'.

Look, that door's open.

It has to be a closet.

- I ain't going in here.
- It's open?

- No.
- I'm holding out.

We're holding hands
on bathroom duties.

We're going to the bathroom
together, and you guys got to go.

- You want to hold my hand?
- Yeah.

I don't wanna go
in there.

I wanna go now.

- Go ahead.
- I'll go in there with you.

You guys stay out here.

- You need a camera.
- No!

I'm not taking a camera.

No, we're not taking
a camera in there.

We are not taking the camera
in the bathroom.

No. Hell, no!

But it's for science.

- We are not taking it.
- It's for biology.

Come on.

- What?! What?!
- Come here, come here.

- No, no.
- You didn't hear it?

- I heard something.
- What was that?

I smell something bad.

What is that?

- That was me!
- That was him. I told you...

She's right, don't do that.

You guys,
I smell something.

- I smelled it right there.
- I did too. What is it?

What is that?

It was me. I farted.

- Don't do that!
- I was trying to scare her.

- Tim...
- Gross!

Look at this, you guys.

It's cold in here.

Something feels really
strange in here.

Looks like a kid's room.

- I'll try to turn the light on.
- Be careful!

Hmm, it's nothing.

It's freezing.

What is up with this room?

I'll look under the bed.

Huh!

( a faint chiming )

Hey, did you hear that?

- Huh? What?
- Shh!

( music box chimes )

- That!
- That what?

That music!

- There!
- I hear it!

It seems to be coming
from over here.

I hear it too.
Paul, check this out.

What?

Paul, come here...

Please...

No, we shouldn't
go in there.

( squeal )

- It's a cat!
- Oh, my God!

- Where did it come from?
- Aw, here, kitty, kitty!

- How did the cat get in here?
- Where did it come from?

See anything, Tim?

It's a music box.

- Wait a minute, wait!
- What?

There's something else
down here...

- What?
- There's a hole in it.

There's something
in here.

Tim...

Tim, talk to us.

What is it?!

Ugh.

- He's making me nervous.
- What is it, Tim?

Oh.

Oh, my God!

Oh, no!

- Ugh.
- Uh...

What... is...
that?

Here, set it down.

What's that?

Be careful!

- Careful, Tim.
- Don't do it.

Don't do it.

- It's a doll!
- It's a...

No, it's a doll!
It's a doll, okay?

- It's a doll.
- Can we get out of here?

Can we go?

- Just forget about it!
- Let's move on.

- It's a doll, all right?
- It's a doll.

- Sure?
- You know, let's just go.

Guys, we are headed
to the attic.

I love all the ghosts.

Oh, my God!

- Hold hands.
- Did you see "Blair Witch"?

Welcome.

Ryan, nothing is there.

Ryan, nothing's happening.
Chill.

Did you see
"Blair Witch"?

Everything is okay.

You listening to me?
We're okay.

We come in peace.

It's okay, we're fine.

I know we're fine.

- These things are all right.
- Big, scary room.

80?

I find this one
small attic.

Okay, the meter
isn't reading.

- There's not much of a reading.
- 80.

But this room's
another story.

I don't want
to be last, guys.

Okay, listen.

- Let me say something.
- Goodbye.

Can I say something?
We're all protected by white light.

Take a deep breath.
Deep breath.

Listen, if there's
anything here, it needs us.

- Is that...
- Do you know that?

- Yeah.
- What is that noise?

If there's anything here,
it needs us. So we're here for it.

Okay. Right.

Is there a light? What's this?
Can I flip it?

- Okay, good.

- You watch that way.
- Yeah, I know.

It's okay.

It's okay.

Come here.
You gotta shoot this.

There's shit moving.

Listen...

Okay, Ryan,
calm down.

Get in here, Tim.

- Okay...
- God.

We know you're here,

and you know that
we're here.

But we're here in peace,
and we're here to help.

- We need your cooperation.
- I love ghosts.

We need your cooperation.
We ask that you don't harm us.

And we're covered
by white light.

You can't harm us. We will wish
to communicate with you.

What are you saying?

We will wish
to communicate.

Okay, why don't we go downstairs
and get some sage?

Let's go.
There's no need to be here.

- All right.
- Let's go.

We'll see you later.
We really want to help.

- Please let us.
- Yeah, I'm with her.

We're going downstairs.

Ryan, hold up.

Ryan, wait. We're gonna
sit down and we're gonna talk.

I think I got that on film.

Don't start laughing
because I'm scared

and afraid you'll start
laughing.

- Ryan...
- Holy shit.

- Ryan, weren't you listening?
- Come on.

Come on.

When you go down--

Hey! Hey!

When you walk down
the staircase, use the wall.

- I don't wanna go last.
- Come on, use the wall.

I feel good right now.
I feel clearing.

Home base, home base,
home base.

Okay, let's sit down.
Let's regroup.

Oh, my God.

You jumped...
you jumped like a bitch!

You fucking missed it.

Dude, dude, dude,
dude, dude...

You missed it.

Whenever the camera's not on,
that's when it happened.

No, the camera caught it.

What fell? What fell?

Listen, do you understand?
I think it's me.

When I go into a room,
something happens.

- You weren't in the kitchen.
- You weren't there for that.

The chair.
They don't know--

A chair. A chair like that flew
across the room.

- What?
- It didn't fly across the room!

- It did, too!
- What?

It lifted up
and tossed itself over.

No, it moved six feet!

It's on film,
we'll see it.

I hate this place.

Can you hold that
right here?

We're going to
open that up.

I was looking right at it
through the camera.

- Tim, did you see it?
- No, I was still inside.

You'll see it
right now, watch.

Watch this...

Right there, see?

- See that?
- Oh, my God!

I got it on film,
it's a straight shot.

Tim, come here.
Let me rewind this.

You got the whole thing
on there.

All right.

Okay.
Here it is--

See, it starts there...
watch...

and see that?

There's something here,
and we've got proof!

I have it on film.
That's all I need.

It's gonna be
a long night.

We have to really
work as one mind, almost.

I know it sounds crazy,
but we have to work like that.

We're gotta get together,
to really trust this process,

and we're going to
have to--

Because four of us
will be okay together...

But I'm not equipped
to deal with...

anger,
that kind of anger.

We'll have to work on it.

- I am.
- Okay.

All right,
and I know that.

- I trust you.
- You should.

I gotta deal with this
infrared thing?

Just point
and click.

- Can I please say this now?
- God, do we have to?

Yes, it's important.
It's gonna help us.

We just need
to get this done.

We'll do all the neat
spiritual rituals we can.

No, I wanna do this now.

I asked for...
It's from a sister.

I asked for it and placed
the complete protection

of the fiery white light over
myself, Madison, Ryan,

Paul and Tim,

all around me,

this house,

this attic,

this staircase,

the fiery white light
with the indigo...

- I can't even talk.
- "Dingoes"?

...everyone I come in
contact with at this hour

to expel, repel
and reject everything harmful--

negative or evil--
I should have memorized this.

And I give thanks for this
complete protection, let's go!

I'll do it better later,
let's go.

- Don't be scared, guys.
- I am fine.

I am fine. I love all the energy
that's in this room

that is all positive.

We are here to help and do
nothing else.

Use the wall on your way
down the stairs.

Everything is okay.

- You watch that way.
- Yeah, I am.

Everything's perfectly okay.

We're here to help.

Everything's all right.

Are you okay?

My God, did you see that?

No, it's in here.

- What did you see?
- It jumped up when we walked in.

- What jumped?
- Just the meter.

The meaning?

Can I get in here,
because I have a camera?

- I don't want this door closing.
- Come in with me.

Stay there so the door
don't close.

I'm right behind you, brother.

Everything is okay, Madison.
Stay there, we're all right.

Every five feet we talk the talk,
this is huge up here.

- No...
- What if this door closes?

...it's dangerous!
It could fall through.

- The floor could fall through.
- It won't fall through.

( stomping )

- There's nothing to block it with.
- Block it with this.

Move this over.

You guys...

- It might close.
- It closes, we'll open it!

It has a door handle--
four hinges.

I don't wanna be last.
Do I have to be last?

- Oh shit!
- Come on!

Ryan, please!!

- Okay, all right.
- Pull yourself together!

Okay, okay. All right.

Please!

- Nothing can hurt us, okay?
- Don't yell at me.

They're cooperating.

It's actually a low reading.

What is it?

Right now it's at six,
which is the lowest.

No, no, it's huge over here.
Come on.

- Madison, I need you.
- This door could close.

- The door won't close.
- 70... 70... 73.

- Okay, 73 is cool.
- I'm cooperating, you guys.

No, not you. I'm talking
to the people that are here.

Don't be afraid, brother.

The thing is, a string would have
to be strong to pull it.

Well, you know, leverage,
distance...

What the fuck is that?

Dead bird.

- There's a dead bird.
- How badly is it dead?

It's dead!
Can we please hurry?

- We're here to find a ghost.
- Walk all the way there.

Let's go, let's do it.

We're going,
but I'm not going alone.

Let's go.
Let's just do it.

White light, white light...

- It's high. It's really high.
- What is that?

Why's that shoe
sitting there?

Listen, Paul...

- What is it?
- Paul, I don't know.

Paul, can we please hurry?

Can we please walk fast
and do it?

Relax, nothing's wrong.

I can't believe how huge
this attic is.

What if these floors slip?
What if it falls through?

There's a couch
over here.

How did it get so big?

We're going back
and we're getting candles.

- No, stop it!
- Come on, knock that off.

Are we getting meter readings?
What are we doing right now?

My meter don't work
any more.

- I think we're done.
- It's cooling off over here.

Guys, come here.
It's 98 degrees.

I feel a breeze.

Is it just a breeze,
because it's not as hot?

It's just a breeze.

Dude, go there, grab that chair
and you check it out.

No strings?

- I knew it!
- Hold on, hold on.

- Positive energy.
- White light.

Hold the wall.

- Come on!
- No, you have to stay with us.

They're just trying
to scare us.

Let me sit down.

The thing that scares me,

and I'm being really
honest right now,

is that I think that ghost
is really disturbed and angry,

and just like an angry,
disturbed person

you gotta be very,
very cautious,

Iike with anybody that's
a little mentally off.

I wasn't prepared for
a poltergeist--

angry activity--

I wasn't prepared for something
that could hurl something at us.

But we have to believe
that we're protected,

and that we have
guides,

and we're alive and nothing's
really going to happen to us.

God, I am hungry!

Lunch is here, or dinner,
whatever you want to call it.

- What's going on?
- I think we should eat.

I thought we were gonna do
our ritual now.

Let's eat,
if that's all right with you.

Nothing else seems to be
all right with you.

Paul, come on! We've been going
about this all day.

I thought this is really
important...

- Tim, sandwich?
- Yeah.

Listen, I really think we should
get down to business, you guys.

What do you mean?

I don't think we
should be eating right now.

I think there's something
really intense going on here,

and I think what we should
be doing instead of eating

is getting together,
forming a circle,

and trying to communicate
with this thing.

We've got everything
that we were supposed to get.

- What do you mean?
- We have proof that there's ghosts.

- We can leave.
- We cannot leave.

We did what we're
supposed to do.

- We should leave.
- Tim, we're not leaving.

We need to get more
on camera.

Tim's right.
We came here to do a job.

- We did it.
- This is great!

Do you know how many people
would love to be in this position?

- We have proof!
- Madison, I agree with you.

You promised we could get down
to the spiritual stuff.

You're getting on Madison.
You don't need to do that.

Thank you.
I'm glad you're here.

- Let's eat.
- Don't have an attitude.

I don't have an attitude.

We'll do whatever you want,
after we eat, Madison.

It's not all about you.

We should just chill out.

Is it that time
of the month for you?

- Paul, give me a break!
- She's been a bitch all night!

- Oh, my gosh! Typical.
- That is really not fair.

It's true, isn't it?

It is.

You didn't deny it.
It's obvious.

- Paul, what is it with you?
- It's full moon. That's it.

Come on, you guys.
Stop fighting.

There's something up there
trying to communicate with us!

I started to talk to you
about it before.

The four of us should
be sitting together. We should--

There was a bug
in my mouth!

Oh, my God!
Oh, I'm gonna be sick!

Paul, will you kill it?

- It's dead. You bit it.
- No, it's not!

There's stuff coming out of it.
You bit it.

- You ate a bug.
- That is so gross.

- Oh, I hate it here!
- I'm sorry, Ryan.

I'm telling everybody
she ate a bug.

Give me a flashlight.
Let me see.

No, you got it all.
That's so gross.

We're joined together
as one,

one intention
and one focus,

and we ask that only
the good be brought in today,

only the good and only
that which is of the light

be brought forth,
so that we can help and heal

and unite with justice
and truth.

Is there somebody here
that wishes to speak with us

and are you
of the white light?

If you are,
you may go to the "Yes."

It's getting very cold
under my hands.

Is it cold
under your hands?

Yeah, it is.
But I'm not worried about it.

Is there someone
here who really needs help?

Is there someone here
who wants us to help them?

You know what it wants
over there?

- Tell us what you want.
- Is this a number?

It might just be getting
started.

- They go back and forth.
- It takes time.

- Please be of the light.
- It is. You asked it to be.

Oh, yes.

Did you live in this house
a very long time ago?

"Yes." Okay, so...

God, this is so cool.

Oh, my God,
that is so cool.

Okay, this is Tim.

Would you agree
to talk to Tim?

Yeah.

Okay.

We'll give you
a new question.

What's the first letter
of your name?

He doesn't spell.

But he knows the first letter
of his name.

"Yes."

"C."

He's gone to that before
when we asked him his name.

Is your name Christian?

He goes to a bunch
of consonants after that.

"No." Maybe, is your name
Charles?

What is it?

I just thought of the name
"Charles."

- And he went to "Yes"?
- What?

- He went to "Yes"?
- Yeah.

Are you still there?

Okay, you're still there.

- It's cool, Ryan. This is fine.
- Ryan's really, really great.

She's here on the project
with us.

See, isn't it easy?

Are you the only one here?

Is there anybody else
with you?

Is there anybody else
with you?

Do I know you?
Do I know you?

Do we know each other?

- They don't understand past lives.
- He says he knows you.

They don't know
they're dead.

Or he doesn't understand
that concept.

He keeps going back.
He knows you.

How well did we know
each other?

Can you tell me?

Can you show me a picture?

- What?
- I don't know.

I don't want him coming
in the room, showing us things.

I just meant like
on the board.

God, I knew this person.

I knew this person.

He's happy?

He's happy that I made
the connection.

Oh, my God.

I knew this
was gonna happen.

I mean, it did.

I didn't understand it.

Is it possible for us
to clear this space?

Is it possible for us to help
move the spirits out of here?

But do you think
that they will go?

Do you believe that the spirits
will go if we send them away?

( loud crash )

Oh my God!

- What was that?
- Oh my God!

- Where did that come from?
- What was that?

What is that?
What is that?

- I don't know.
- Oh, my God, you guys!

They had somebody
shackled up here!

How did that get
in the chimney?

She had somebody chained
up in here!

Oh my God! Oh my God!

- Ryan, what are you doing?
- Be careful.

- Don't stick your head in there.
- Come on, Get back.

- Tim, you got this?
- Yeah, I'm getting it.

- What is it, Ryan?
- I think I see something.

- I don't know what that is.
- Ryan, get out.

You shouldn't put
your head in there.

Paul, what is that?

- Oh, God, what was that?
- Are you all right?

What is that?

- Oh, God!
- You're all right.

What the hell's going on?

Okay, I think Paul's right.

It would really work if we can
somehow synchronize...

- when we all say this.
- That's the point.

If we were to go all
together at the same time

is not as powerful as
spreading out

and taking the whole house
at the same time.

We ask for divine guidance

as we venture through
this house.

We ask for cooperation
and help.

So now I want you to cover
yourself with white light.

See it starting from
the crown of your head

and I want to see
it showering over all of us.

We're all covered with white light
and we're all protected.

Relax.

There are fucking chairs
flying around up there.

- Go sit in that chair.
- Oh, yeah, right!

Harness it. Let it know who's
the dominant being up there.

- We're not gonna play dominant.
- I got your back.

Thanks, you're a whole
floor below me.

Why do we have to split up?

It's the only way to cleanse
all the rooms at once.

All right, bro'.

It's judgment day.

- Hey, it's not about that.
- Let's go.

- Do you wanna yell from the attic?
- No, I don't.

I think we just get in our spots
and start.

Okay, I'm here.

But it could be...
You'll know I'm in the attic.

When you guys hear him in
the attic, then we'll start.

We'll be able to hear
him walking.

You totally tell I'm in the attic
from the staircase.

Are you all right?

- Shit.
- You gonna be okay?

Guys?

Anybody wanna cover my back
while I go up for a minute?

Go ahead, cover my back
real quick.

- Did you start it already?
- No.

Good, you could probably watch
the staircase and my back.

You got Charles in there,
don't even worry about it.

Stop it with ol' Charlie!

I don't wanna go
up there.

Look at it!

God damn it!

Yeah, wait until
you look at it!

It's so scary.

I think I got it
from here.

Go back,
get to your spots.

No, bro',
I'll walk you in.

No, 'cause if you leave me,
I'll feel weird.

Let me go in.

I'll feel so abandoned
if you leave me.

- You sure?
- Yeah. It's something weird...

I don't wanna go
in there.

It's like walking
straight into hell.

Okay, you guys
go to your spots

and I'm gonna be right here.
I'm gonna go to my spot last.

In case you guys start
and finish early,

you can come save me.

I want you to understand
why I'm doing this.

Why?

I chose to be leader and
volunteered to take the attic for you.

At least I'm doing this
for you.

I didn't chicken out
and have you do it.

Paul,
you have to remember,

without fear,
we have no heroes.

Damn it!

Paul,
say your prayer now.

- Do you have your incense lit?
- Yes, hold on.

And remember,
you're gonna help.

We're meant to help.
Remember the word was "Now."

What is all this
shit about?

Oh, my God.

What?
Hey, don't leave me! Wait!

No, I'm just talking
to myself.

Jesus Christ, don't
run off like that yet.

Motherf--
Oh, Jesus!

- Hey, Madison,
- Yes.

What are you doing
right now?

What am I doing?
I'm watching Paul.

Where are you, Tim?

What? I'm just checking
on my room.

Why, what do you think?

I want you to help me out,
checking behind the doorways.

Yeah, but we have to go in
separately.

Nobody's going in the attic
to check my doorways.

I offered to, you said
you wanted to go by yourself.

But then you'd leave me
and that'd be really scary.

Well, I don't mind anybody
leaving me.

All right,
it's time to do this!

Paul,
I know you can do this.

Fear's what makes heroes,
right, boys?

Down here in Louisiana.

Fear is just in our head.

Tell them that they can go and they
don't have to stay, and be very nice.

Surround yourself in white light,
and nothing can happen.

I wish there was sunlight.
It would make a difference.

We could do everything then,
but they're not active then.

Oh, God. Be a good leader.
Be a good leader.

Just say it.
Words are very powerful.

- Tim!
- What?

I need you to like just
be around.

30 minutes till countdown.

I'm staying here for a
little while.

You could not believe how dark
and scary it is in there.

Go ahead and shine
that shit in first.

Shine your light...

and talk to them
outside of there.

Oh, man!

I've never been
anywhere this scary!

Never, ever have I been
so scared.

- This is ridiculous.
- I know.

Have you ever gone into
something like this?

- No.
- I'm not writing shit!

I can just read stuff.
I'm not writing anything.

Write it,
write everything out!

No, I'm dropping the book.
Look out.

Get outta the way. I'm dropping
the book. I don't want it.

Goodbye, book.

- Would you be this scared?
- Yes.

I'd be freaking out
if I were you.

You would'nt believe how scary
the attic looks with no light.

Shine a light in.

Ghosts, turn on the light.
Just turn on the light.

Come on, Charles!

- Charles, turn on the light!
- Charles!

Make an agreement that
you'll go in, you can talk--

Charles, if you turn on
the light, Paul's gonna go in.

Charles would
turn on the light.

Charles can't
turn on the light!

- He turned it off!
- He didn't. That wasn't him.

- Who turned it off?
- We need to go in our rooms!

Come on.

Ghosts? Ghosts?

Say your prayer now.

Get to the first camera
you see and sit!

Oh, no!
I am not sitting down!

I ask for...

Go ahead, Paul, say it.
Words are very powerful.

It's cold up here.
It's cold.

Okay, I ask for...

and I place complete--

Guys, come on! You're yelling!
I can't think!

I ask for and I place
the complete protection

of the fiery white light
of love...

- Good, Paul.
- Hold on.

Guys? Come on.

Oh, man, it's not very nice
in there. It's not nice.

- Is it ice cold?
- Yes, I'm freezing.

They're listening to you!

But it's not nice.

They're listening.

Please, just say it.

All the hairs
are standing on end.

Good!
They're listening!

We've separated,

each going into
our haunted room alone

to recite the prayer
of cleansing.

I feel more scared than
I've felt all night.

Can you hear this?

( heart thumps )

I'm going into the front room,
where we found that cold spot.

It seems colder in here now.

Come on, Charles.

You have me believing
in you, buddy.

I love ghosts.

Did you hear that?

I think there's
something in this closet.

Tim, are you okay?

Yeah,
I just scared myself.

Okay, here we go.

Is everybody okay
out there?

Yeah! Come on,
let's get this over with!

Hurry up, you two!
It's dark up here!

Okay.

Let's start!

I call upon the power
of the fiery white light

to cleanse,

protect

and purify
this house of evil,

to heal the wounds
of the past

and free
these earthbound souls

to find peace in the white
light of heaven.

Are there any ghosts
in here?

I call upon the power
of the fiery white light

to cleanse, protect
and purify this house of evil,

to heal the wounds
of the past

and free
these earthbound souls

to find peace in the white
light of heaven.

You guys!

Stuff's moving down here!

You guys, help!
Madison!

I ask and I place
the complete protection

of the fiery white light

of love around this attic, and
I don't want this door to shut.

No, don't
shut the door. Ah!

There's stuff--

The fiery white light
of love--

What's that?

Okay, I call upon the fiery
white light to cleanse, purify

and protect this house,
and to--

and to free all
the house of evil

and all the spirits to--
What was that?

Who's up here?
Is somebody up here?

If you wanna communicate,
talk to Madison.

Shit!

What the hell?
What the hell?

Oh, my God!
What the hell is this?

Is there something
down there?

What the hell is this?

Ow, ow! Shit!

God damn it!

Shit.

( breaking and rattling )

Come on. Shit.

Come on.

God! Ow!

There is something
in this room with me.

I can feel it
in the air.

If there's someone
or something here,

please communicate
with me!

Let me hear you!

And know that we are here
to help you!

- ( door creaks )
- Ah!

Charles, are you still here,
buddy?

You never were here,
were you?

You're just a figment
of my imagination.

Hey, you guys?

Hey, you guys, I'm getting
some action in here!

( scratching )

Fucking rats!

Charles,
this isn't funny.

That's where the sound's
coming from, the closet.

Come on, Charles, don't--
with me now.

There's a cold spot here.

It's really cold.

( whispering )

Okay, you heard it
that time.

It's like it's here
but it's not here.

Oh, God...

What the fuck?

What the--?

Oh, Jesus.

What the--?

There's some kind of

secret passageway
down here.

It's cold.
It's really cold.

I don't wanna know
what's in there.

( gasps )

What the--?

Hey, somebody help me!

Please, you can't leave me
down here!

There's spiders down here!

Somebody help me!

There is definitely something
in this room with me.

The air has gotten colder.

Charles?
Charles, is that you?

If you're here Charles,
if you can hear me,

please give me a sign.

I want to help you.
I want to free you from this place.

Oh, my God,
you're not Charles!

You're the one
who threw the chair!

Oh, God!

I know you were
a victim of Madame Lullory

but that was
a long time ago!

You are free to go now!

You need to leave

and find peace
on the other side!

Aaaah!

( screaming )

What's going on?

Madison!

Madison!

Madison!

Madison!

Madison, come
and open the door!

Maddy!
Madison!

( screaming )

Oh, my God!

We gotta get out
of here!

- Tim and Ryan!
- Tim! Ryan!

- Oh, Tim!
- Ryan!

Where are they?

Did you see that?

I don't know!

Listen, I hear that again.
They're yelling. Come on!

- Paul, I wanna leave!
- We're out of here. Come on.

Please take me home!

I don't want to...

- Come on!
- I want to leave!

Come on, I hear them.

Ryan! They're down there.
They're here!

Tim! Ryan!

She's here!
Madam Lullory is here.

- Oh, my God!
- Hurry!

Tim!
Ryan!

My God!

( screaming )

- Help me!
- I'm coming.

- Get me out of here.
- Wait! Somebody's coming!

Hurry! Hurry!

Come on!
