(tense music)

- Wake up! - Wake up!

(people laughing)

(Arthur exhaling sharply)

[Janet] Good feedback from Milan.

Refunds are down and no legal action was taken this time.

Hilarious.

Where's my car?

Call me now.

(PA system chiming)

(traffic humming)

(phone ringing)

(phone ringing)

(woman speaking foreign over PA system)

Your Royal Highness,

I do hope that this is not a bad time.

Of course not, darling.

How's my favorite client?

Janet, I've been waiting here at the airport

for about a decade

and no one has come forward yet from the hotel.

Are you sure?

I'm still here.

Oh. God, yes. My bad.

No, I remember now.

They said to meet you out the front by the taxi rank.

You didn't think to tell me before now?

Yes. No, I didn't tell you?

Did you check your messages?

Of course, I checked my messages.

Look, I know you've been traveling a lot

and I know that you are tired.

I am. I have.

We're all tired, sweetness.

Just remember that Finland

is the happiest country in the world.

So smile.

Just think, Arthur.

It's the last stop on your tour in a luxury spa hotel.

Sauna, jacuzzi.

Have yourself a massage.

Then you can have a little detox.

Easy for you to say.

You are not the one flying back and forth

across the globe, are you?

God, I wish I was.

Look, seriously, listen, Arthur,

we don't want another Barcelona on our hands.

That wasn't my fault.

Everyone thought you'd had a stroke.

They couldn't understand English.

You don't speak English.

You're from Glasgow.

I'll give you Barcelona. Just not another London.

[Arthur] I don't remember London.

Exactly.

But where's my car?

No idea, darling. Outside.

Look, I've gotta go,

a more important call is coming through.

Text me when you get there.

Charming.

[Janet] And next time,

don't forget to check your messages.

I have. I do.

All right. Love me too. Ta-ta. Bye.

Fucking asshole.

(gentle music)

(gentle music continues)

[Arthur] Sharp.

Arthur Sydenham Sharp.

[Driver] You are late.

[Arthur] I thought I was meeting you inside.

It's colder than Scotland out here, pal. I can tell you.

[Driver] Get in the car.

Can I put my case in?

[Driver] Yes.

Do you know who I am?

Hello?

Can you not hear me?

I asked, did you not hear me-

[Driver] I heard.

[Arthur] Bit rude not to answer. Don't you think?

[Driver] No.

No you don't think or no it isn't rude?

(driver speaking in foreign language)

Sorry, what was that?

(car humming)

(artist singing in foreign language)

Well, do you have a name at least?

(artist singing in foreign language)

(artist rapping in foreign language)

Hey, can I get my case?

Welcome to our peaceful hotel.

We've been expecting you.

[Arthur] Finally, someone who speaks English.

Of course. Everybody speaks English.

[Arthur] Not your driver apparently.

Yes, even him.

Come. My name is Helena.

[Arthur] Arthur.

I am the day manager.

The bar and restaurant are through here.

Great. I'm famished.

- It's closed. - Oh.

Breakfast will be served between seven and eight.

[Arthur] I prefer mine a little later.

If it's sort, it's say to you,

a time difference, you know?

I'll be here until 9:00 PM.

After that, there will be no service until the morning.

So if you want anything, come to the reception before then

and we can accommodate you.

[Arthur] Have you any food?

No. Sorry.

[Arthur] Is there a takeaway or anything?

Keep up.

(Arthur panting)

No smoking in any part of the hotel.

We're very firm on that.

And there is alarms everywhere.

And it's very costly too.

This is your room.

(lock system chiming)

Here's your key.

(footsteps clomping)

There is coffee and tea by the kettle.

You can take water from the tap.

I'll be able to meet with you tomorrow after breakfast.

And we can go over how to set up the room

for your performance.

It's not performance, it's more like a seance.

And I'd prefer that we use the term gathering.

[Helena] Would you?

Any other questions?

No, I don't think there is.

Or maybe I will pop by for a snack.

A crisps, sandwich, anything.

I'll be leaving at 9:00 PM.

So if you need anything come before that.

Get settled. You look tired.

Oh, very kind of you to say so.

Oh, is there Wi-Fi for the internet?

V-FI.

In the manual you'll find all the details.

Sex channels, pool times. V-FI.

- In no order? - Hmm.

And do not use the pool after I leave.

Oh.

In case you have an accident and drown.

Thank you.

(footsteps clomping)

(door thudding)

(Arthur sighing)

(footsteps clomping)

(zipper rasping)

(pills clattering)

(tense music)

Arrived.

Safe and sound.

So far so good.

Except there's no food.

I'm ravenous.

Janet, that's no good enough.

Just going through some files for tomorrow.

There's a lot of people.

I seem to have some translations missing.

Could you check the file

and make sure I've not missed anything out?

I want to know more about how they died.

I need something.

Something personal would be good.

Some names would be great.

(woman moaning)

(dog barking)

(tense music)

- Oh. - Jesus!

(woman speaking in foreign language)

(Arthur screaming)

(woman moaning)

(water splashing)

(woman moaning)

(curtain rustling)

Wow, what utter luxury!

Hotel spa.

(traffic humming)

[Janet] I haven't seen you in here before.

Brand new.

[Janet] Oh. Okay.

Are you from around here?

I grew up kind of near Virginia Walter.

- Phone ringing. - Oh. Sorry. Excuse me.

(phone ringing)

What up, bitch?

Whatever I'm paying you, it's not enough.

Payment. Ooh, that sounds like progress.

What do you want?

I'm hungry.

So eat.

There's nothing to eat.

Fascinating.

Is that all?

I had a bad dream.

I see a dream.

It was more like a vision, really.

Mm. See? Got powers back already.

I knew Finland would be good for you, Arthur.

What was it then this vision?

Strange.

Young woman, completely wet, dripping actually.

Are you watching porn?

Arthur, I've got better things to do than listening

to the details of your wet dream fantasy women.

So if there's nothing else.

Forget the dream.

I thought you said it was a vision.

Yeah, vision.

Look, I would really like to get back to my work.

So look, if there's nothing else, then bye-bye.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

Did you send over the notes that I asked for?

In your inbox. Check your messages.

Anything else?

No.

Don't call me again today.

Hello?

Hello!

I'm an unhappily hungry customer. Hello?

[Night Porter] She left.

(ominous music)

Excuse me. I didn't mean to startle you.

Ah yeah. No bother power.

I'm just looking for the manager.

She left, you said.

She said she would be here till 9:00.

Helena?

It must be the time difference.

Did you come from another country?

I thought I changed it yesterday.

Sorry, I didn't know there was anyone else staying here.

And the night porter.

Any food available?

I'm afraid not.

I can get you a beer.

So Mr. Sharp, what can I get for you?

You don't sound Finnish.

Where are you from?

England originally, but I moved around, so.

[Arthur] Any takeaways nearby?

I'm afraid we're out of the delivery zone.

The nearest place is 20 kilometers.

Jesus. Really?

So you've got other guests staying here then?

[Night Porter] Yes, 13, including yourself.

They must be early-to-bed kinda people there.

Are you here tomorrow night?

I'm here every night.

Trooper. Good man yourself.

Thanks for opening up. It's really kind you.

Perhaps I could have one more beer for the bedroom like.

Of course.

(beer bottle hissing) (cap clinking)

Here.

Shall I pay you now?

On the house.

You're a very special guest and we've been expecting you.

Thank you. Much appreciated.

So do you know why I'm here then?

Of course. You're here to help.

Oh, suppose you could look at it that way, eh?

Goodnight, Mr. Sharp. It was a pleasure meeting you.

Night, pal.

(gentle music)

(tense music)

(tense music continues)

(Arthur yawning)

(tense music continues)

Oh well.

Whatever. Nevermind.

(toothbrush rustling)

(Arthur splatting)

(Arthur sloshing)

(Arthur splatting)

(tense music)

(curtain rustling)

All right now, lanie, get yourself to sleep now.

Mm.

Goodnight, you sweet prince.

May flights of angels sing thee to thy rest.

(gentle music)

(gentle music continues)

(gentle music continues)

(camera shutters)

(gentle music continues)

(gentle music continues)

(artist singing in foreign language)

Hello!

(artist singing in foreign language)

Hello!

(artist singing in foreign language)

[Arthur] Anybody there?

- You missed breakfast. - Whoa!

(chuckling nervously) What? What?

[Helena] You're late.

You said between 8:00 and 9:00.

And it's almost 10:00.

Oh, for fuck sake.

We like to keep things on time here.

These things are supposed

to change time zones automatically.

Mr. Sharp, do English people always make excuses?

I'm Scottish, by the way, love.

And I checked the times twice.

You can't be very hungry then.

(scoffs) Are you kidding me?

I've had no supper, 'cause you are nowhere to be found.

All I've had is beer, water and sleeping pills.

This is the worst service I've ever experienced in my life.

I saved your plate.

You what?

Come

(footsteps clomping)

Sit.

(footsteps clomping)

Here.

Thanks.

[Helena] Please eat fast.

We have to set up for a performance.

(footsteps clomping)

It's not a performance. It's more than that.

(footsteps clomping)

It's more like a gathering.

We don't have time to chitchat.

You've got five minutes sharp.

Here is your coffee.

(footsteps clomping)

Hey, have you had any milk or cream?

Good morning, sir. Did you sleep well?

Very good.

Our luxury buffet cart will be along shortly

with a plethora of local and international cuisines

to tease and tantalize your palette.

(Arthur exhaling)

(gentle jazzy music)

(footsteps clomping)

(Helena speaking in foreign language)

Arthur Sharp.

(Helena clapping)

(tense ethereal music)

Death is not real.

At least not in the sense

that we've become accustomed to believe it's real.

We've been taught to fear it.

Some of us spend our entire lives

and fortunes trying to keep it away, to defeat it.

Well, I'm here to tell you today

that some of us have succeeded.

People say they don't believe in spirits.

But how many of you have had an experience

that you can't quite explain with logic or science?

(woman laughing)

How many ghost stories have you heard?

Is it just a mere coincidence

that tales of the undead predate the written word

by thousands of years?

I sense some skepticism.

That's all right.

Mystics, medium, sidekicks, clairvoyants,

these are all words again that are bet to place a barrier

between ourselves and the spirits,

that you need some sort of trained intermediary

in order to communicate

with those who have ostensibly departed.

How many here have read my book?

Well, you're all in luck

because I have more than enough to go around.

And because we are all friends here, you can get a discount.

We are not here for your book.

No. No, of course not.

We want answers.

Funnily enough, answers are exactly

what the book will give you.

[Woman 2] Tell us about the hotel.

I'm sure the manager, Helena,

will be more than happy to tell you everything

about the hotel.

(footsteps clomping)

She means about what happened here.

What is still happening.

We need to know what you see.

What, what I...

Okay. Okay. Okay.

You've obviously experienced something traumatic

and you want to commune.

Let's begin.

(soft ethereal music)

(Arthur humming)

Is there a Laura here?

Laura?

This is definitely an I.

Louise?

Maybe it's for someone who hasn't arrived.

A T, maybe.

Tina?

No!

Does anyone have an item from someone that,

a relative that has departed?

(beads tinkling)

These belong to them?

Yes.

What was their name and relationship to you?

Mari. (Eerie music)

Our sister.

Please come and sit with me.

(beats tinkling)

(table vibrating)

(Arthur toning)

Mari.

Sister Mari.

Are you there?

Yes. She's with us now.

Sister Mari, do you have any words for your family?

Hmm?

Yes.

You were very close.

Yes.

She was taken from you far too soon.

[Maris's Sister] Yes.

[Arthur] She remembers the beads.

Ask her what she remembers.

She said it all happened very suddenly.

(Mari speaking ghostly in foreign language)

Sorry.

(Mari speaking ghostly in foreign language)

I can't-

(Mari speaking ghostly in foreign language)

[Mari's Sister] Is she here with us?

She is.

(Arthur gasping)

(eerie music)

(Arthur gasping and panting)

Holy fuck.

(man speaking in foreign language)

I, I don't understand.

(man speaking in foreign language)

I, I'm sure I can help.

I, I wanna try and help you. Please stay.

This isn't a joke.

You have no idea what we are going through.

You insult us.

(Mari's sister speaking in foreign language)

Please stay.

Wait, don't go.

We can talk some more.

(zipper rasping)

Call me a car to the airport

and book my flight for tonight.

I'm outta here.

(zipper rasping)

That was real.

(curtain rustling)

Stay there, you fucking fuck.

(tense music)

(tense music continues)

(footsteps clomping)

(suitcase clattering)

(woman speaking in foreign language)

[Driver] You are late again.

[Arthur] Nice to see you too again.

(woman speaking in foreign language)

(woman huffing)

Move. Move. Drive. Drive. Move it.

(dog barking)

To the airport please, my good man.

(car humming)

(zipper rasping)

(tense music)

Hey driver, come around. I'm going back.

(driver speaking in foreign language)

So are we going back or?

(car humming)

Can you drop me around the back?

[Driver] Walk.

Thanks, dickhead.

(door thudding)

(car engine revving)

- Welcome. - Yeah. Yeah.

Fucking cold out here.

[Helena] We were expecting you a little bit later.

Really? That's insightful.

You got here all right?

You know, just a quick spin round the block.

Very well. I'll get your key.

I left it on the desk over there.

(footsteps clomping)

Yes.

The restaurant and bar are through there.

I don't suppose you've got any food today.

I'm literally wasting away.

No.

Well, then can I have the number for the pizza delivery?

- The what? - The one around the corner.

Oh, there is no food delivery within 20 kilometers.

Yes, there is. I found it this morning.

This morning? You are mistaken.

It's nothing nearby.

On the edge of the forest, next to the road.

Look, I'll show you.

I'll show you to your room.

It's all right. I know where that is.

[Helena] Very well.

The swimming pool is right down the corridor over there-

Yeah. Yeah.

And for your performance, there is a conference area.

You can set it up after breakfast.

I'll help you.

Sorry, did you say performance tomorrow?

Yes. As per your contract.

So I'm booked in tomorrow?

Why else are you here?

(keypad clicking)

(footsteps clomping)

This is your room.

(lock system chiming)

Here is your key.

There is coffee and tea by the kettle.

You can take water from the tap.

I'll be able to meet with you tomorrow after breakfast

and we can go over how to set up the room

for your performance.

[Arthur] Look, I get it.

The manual, the sex channels.

You don't have to go over the same spiel again.

[Helena] Mr. Sharp, I'm just doing my job.

Right. Whatever.

Anything else you need?

Do you have any food?

Do you know what? Just forget it.

[Helena] See you in the morning then.

Or not.

Remember, I'll be leaving at 9:00 PM.

Okay then. Thank you very much.

But, but... Goodbye now.

See you later. Thanks for your help.

You've been wonderful.

Do not use the pool after I-

(door thudding)

There's no one around

in case you have an accident and you drown.

(ominous music)

(footsteps clomping)

(receiver beeping)

Fuck my life.

(curtain rustling)

Stay there.

(Arthur screaming)

(woman moaning on TV)

Oh, I don't know.

Fuck that.

I don't care as fuck.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

That's not right.

(receiver ringing)

(phone ringing)

(receptionist speaking in foreign language)

Hello. Do you speak English?

- Mm-hm. - Oh great.

I'd like to order some food please.

I, I realize yore not a delivery company,

but, well, I'd be happy to tip the driver.

[Receptionist] Where are you?

Oh, hang on a sec.

Hotel Puolikuu.

Hotel Puolikuu. Half Moon Hotel.

Is that what it's called?

[Receptionist] Mm-hm.

[Arthur] Can you confirm that?

[Receptionist] Yes.

So you'll send some food then?

What food?

Oh. Um.

Pizza.

Do you know what? Make it two.

Pepperoni and some garlic bread.

[Receptionist] Mm-hm.

And so you're gonna send a taxi, yeah?

[Receptionist] Mm-hm.

(eerie music)

Going somewhere? (Eerie music)

Hi. No.

I'm just waiting on a pizza to arrive.

- A pizza? - Yeah.

I couldn't last

waiting another 24 hours for a meal.

Have you not eaten yet?

No.

Your stony face day manager is ignoring my requests.

- It's Helena. - Whatever.

I found a delivery place,

about 15 minutes walk through the forest.

You walked through the forest?

You told me there was nothing nearby.

My apologies. I was unaware.

And you ordered food from this establishment?

No, I couldn't find a number online,

but I called a taxi and asked them to pick one up-

A taxi? And they agreed?

Will they be long?

I don't think so.

Let me get you a drink on the house while you wait.

Eh. Yeah, but whatever.

But that beer you gave me last time was well outta date.

So perhaps I'll try something else.

So what'd it be?

Whiskey. I'm homesick.

Coming up.

I was wondering.

Mm-hm.

See this picture of a red house here?

[Night Porter] Yes.

[Arthur] Is that that red house over there?

I believe so, yes.

Ooh.

There you go.

Another?

Thank you. You know what? Fill that up.

I've got food coming.

Yeah, where did you get that bottle?

I'm sorry. Which bottle?

That bottle there by the sink.

Oh, I hadn't seen that.

I lost a bottle with that this morning.

Give us a look.

Ah, must have been handed in by a customer.

Ah.

Handed in, you say?

Well, it seems whoever handed it in

has helped themselves to a few.

Well, (indistinct) broken, look.

Fascinating. Yes, I see.

Funny.

Here.

One more.

Thank you.

You look tired.

You say.

It's really important to get your rest.

Yeah, rest is important.

To relax, recuperate. Let go.

It is.

Let go. Relax.

I do need to relax.

Find yourself relaxing further, deeper.

Your mind's eye growing heavy and ready to close.

Let it drop now.

Shut out external noise and clear your mind.

Surrender. Let go.

You're feeling calm, empty and deeper relaxed.

You're falling to a deep, deep sleep.

May flights of angels sing thee to thy rest.

(tense music)

(tense music continues)

(water splashing)

[Arthur] Hey, watch it, pal.

(tense music)

(ghosts whimpering)

(Arthur whimpering)

(Mari shouting in foreign language)

(Arthur coughing)

(Arthur panting)

(upbeat music)

(Janet moaning)

(phone ringing)

(Janet moaning)

What?

It's me.

I know. What?

I have to leave.

You only just bloody got there.

I know, but I'm not quite feeling myself.

My visions have returned.

That's good, isn't it?

It's what you bloody wanted.

Something's not quite right.

More intense.

And this is a problem?

I can't tell 'em from my dreams.

And from reality even.

Oh my God.

You fucking child.

It's the middle of a fucking night now, Arthur.

And I've got a really fucking busy day tomorrow.

For once in your life,

can't you just do your work

and stop crying for help all the time?

(Arthur whimpering)

You've been drinking again, haven't you?

On those pills?

I told you not to take them.

No.

You can have another episode.

Please. Can you just get me out over here?

Make yourself useful.

- What? - Not you.

[Arthur] I just need to get out.

Listen to me.

Get into bed, close your eyes,

and stop ringing me in the middle of the fucking night.

(discontinuation tone beeping)

(Arthur crying)

(eerie music)

(eerie sounds resonating)

(suitcase gliding)

(suitcase gliding)

Come on.

You missed breakfast.

It's already after 10:00.

Come.

(suitcase clattering)

(footsteps clomping)

I saved your plate.

Here.

We have to set up for your performance,

so you should eat as fast as possible.

Yeah. Okay.

- Thank you. - Good.

I'll meet you in the space in 10 minutes.

Here is your coffee.

(footsteps clomping)

(tense music)

(Helena speaking in foreign language)

Arthur Sharp.

(Helena clapping)

(Arthur lazy-humming)

[Arthur] This is not-

Get on with it.

Yeah.

Who are you?

(window thudding)

You are looking for your sister, Mari.

(man speaking in foreign language)

[Arthur] What?

You don't know?

You should have never have come here.

(woman 1 speaking in foreign language)

(woman 2 speaking in foreign language)

What the fuck is going on here?

- Help me. - Help us.

(Mari laughing)

- Help. - Help me.

(man speaking in foreign language)

[Arthur] What?

(man speaking in foreign language)

(Mari laughing)

Shut up!

(Mari laughing)

[Man 2] You should've never-

- Shut the fuck up. - Come here.

(Mari crying)

(dramatic music)

(eerie music)

(Arthur grunting)

- Hey! - Oh, fuck off.

You shouldn't be here.

Oh, I know that.

- Then leave. - I will.

Now!

Soon as I get the rest of my things, I'm outta here.

[Woman 2] Why are you here? How did you get in?

That's gratitude for you.

I provide a service, and you people take the piss.

- I tell you. - You people?

I've been watching you.

Take your things and leave.

This place is not safe. You're not safe.

I can't save you. You're all fucked.

I've already informed Security.

Security? That's a leap.

I don't bother. I'm gone.

I'm leaving.

(dog barking)

(door thudding)

(eerie music)

(water dripping)

(eerie music continues)

(Arthur screaming)

(woman screaming)

(water splashing)

(eerie music)

(woman screaming)

(Arthur panting)

(receiver ringing)

Come on. Come on.

(receiver beeping)

Fuck!

Please, you've gotta get me outta here.

I'm in serious trouble.

Call the police. Call anyone.

Please get me outta here.

(tense music)

(tense music continues)

Fuck!

(tense music continues)

Come on.

(tense music continues)

Come on.

(dramatic music)

Thanks, bud.

I'm headed to the airport.

Can you drop me as close as you can please, my man.

What's your name?

[Juha] Juha.

Very pleased to meet you, Juha.

[Juha] Mm-hm.

So what do you do?

[Juha] I take care of things?

[Arthur] What kinda thing?

[Juha] Ah, you'll see.

(foreboding music)

I'll just make my way if that's all right with you.

[Juha] No, I take care of property.

A property you broke into.

[Arthur] No. No, you're mistaken.

I'm just a tourist.

I'll get out here if that's all right.

[Juha] I want you to see the mess you made.

[Arthur] What fucking mess?

I'm just a visitor. I wanna leave.

Can you just please let me go?

(Juha shushing)

I don't know what you're after.

Maybe we can make some sort of deal.

You could talk to my agent.

(car humming)

(eerie music)

Go. Go.

(eerie music)

Go. Go.

Stay.

(eerie music)

In there.

Go. In there. Go.

Sit.

Empty pockets. Come.

I'm here under the contract.

I'm here to give a performance.

(woman speaking in foreign language)

We wait here for the police. (Clearing throat)

Why? I'm the one in danger here.

I was trying to get away.

Speak to Helena.

(Juha speaking in foreign language)

(woman speaking in foreign language)

(Juha speaking in foreign language)

The night porter.

(woman speaking in foreign language)

Help.

(Juha speaking in foreign language)

(dramatic music)

(tense music)

[Juha] Hey! You there, stop!

Hey, stop.

(speaking in foreign language), come here.

Hey! Hey.

Hey, come back!

Hey, come back!

Hey, stop!

Come back here.

(speaking in foreign language), come back here now!

(eerie music)

(eerie music intensifies)

(Arthur panting)

(eerie music)

[Arthur] What? What is this?

Your lost, Arthur. What's troubling you?

Drink this, Arthur. Celebrate with us.

If You drink that, you'll die.
