This is Dr. Benjamin Price, professor of ancient history.

Note Number Four.

The legendary "Necronomicon," "The Book of the Dead," is not just a myth.

The circle of the wise has found it.

And despite my warnings, they read from the book’s unholy texts...

...and unleashed demons that take possession of the flesh, beings just as evil...

...as if the devil himself were here.

God help us.

Note Number Five: We found something.

An object of immense power, capable of sending them back to hell.

If they were to return, I've hidden it behind magic and spells.

It must remain that way...

...because if the seal is broken, they will sense it.

They will smell its scent in the soil...

...and its scent in the air.

And nothing will be able to stop them...

...from destroying it.

I swear! He jumped out the window and ran down the street.

In his boxers, just like in some damn movie. What an idiot.

Oh my God, don't tell me it's Emma. Don't answer.

-What if it's an emergency? -Leo, it's not.

She's freaking out because we came here. Leave your phone in the car next time.

Stop nagging. Let's go.

-Are you kidding me? -Don't answer that.

For God's sake, don't answer, Leo! If you do, I'm out of here.

-Stand your ground! -Hi, sweetie.

-You damn... -I was just about to call you.

We've been out on the lake.

Leo!

See you tomorrow. I love you, too.

Jared, let's go! Stop messing around!

Jared!

Help!

What the...? Jared!

Jared!

Jared, where are you?

Help me!

Oh my God! What the hell?

I've got your back, buddy.

I've got you...

What the hell?

-I have something for the birthday boy here. -That's so nice!

We went a little overboard, but you deserve it.

-It's my pleasure! -Congratulations, buddy.

-I'll get some more champagne. -Alice, wait.

-Come here. -What was that? Are you whistling at me?

No, but you're not listening.

That's the third bottle. Maybe we should slow down a bit.

It's Joseph's birthday, after all. We're going to get a little tipsy.

Relax! Just good vibes, okay?

Open the presents.

Joseph... Congratulations, buddy.

-It's from both of us. -You didn't have to do that.

Whoa. Thanks, guys.

A pen?

Not just any pen. It's a Belvoir.

-“They cost a thousand dollars, after all.” -“More than that, but that’s beside the point.”

I wanted to encourage you to finish writing your book.

-Not very subtle. -It's his fifth one he's started, so...

-“Fourth, actually.” -“Fourth?”

Damn, sorry. But just look at Alice's pictures.

They were good before, but when I bought that one, the difference was incredible.

Sometimes all you need is a little nudge.

Speaking of which...

-And... -One more?

-Congratulations. -I like the package.

-Give it a rest! -Oh my God.

-You're so cute! -Everyone looks cute in black and white.

-You didn't mention that. -It was just a little thing.

-Nothing compared to your Belvoir. -That was from us.

Thank you both. You're so talented.

I always forget that you Americans hug each other.

-The brother-in-law hug. -Did you try to kiss my boyfriend?

We French women are always happy to give a little wave when we say hello.

Style and finesse. Talk about subtle.

He's just upset about my gift.

-You're always complaining. -No, but cut back on the drinking.

-We're celebrating, after all. -I know.

-But calm the hell down. -Okay.

I'm done. Cigarette break?

Promise me we'll never get married.

-She didn't mean any harm. -Sure she did.

She's doing it just to be a pain. Just like with the cigarettes.

We were thinking of having a baby, but she refuses to quit. It's ridiculous.

-That's ridiculous. -Forget it; you know what he's like.

-Can I bum a cigarette, boss? -Cut it out, Mike. I'm not your boss.

-I'm just sending out the paychecks. -I guess you're the boss.

-Aren't you freezing to death in just a T-shirt? -No, it's like an oven in there.

-Besides, the music is way too loud. -I've told him.

Oh, really? Are you talking trash about me to my staff?

-We're just talking. -Relax, Mike. It's not your fault.

Alice, can you come back inside with me?

Okay, come here.

-Don't touch me! -Okay, relax.

Stop accusing me of things. You're the one doing it.

You're making me out to be some kind of hysterical drunk.

I'm sorry, okay?

Come on.

Look at me.

-Stop acting like a damn kid. -Don't call me that!

-Cut it out with that crap. -Don't touch me, I said!

Damn it!

You're the one who's provoking me. I was never like this before.

None of my exes made me this angry. How is that possible?

If we can't talk, how are we supposed to move forward?

Go back to Mike, you. Give him another cigarette. And a handjob!

Go to hell!

Joe...

-Will, you're drunk. -Give me the keys.

Will!

Damn bitch.

Hey, don't move. Don't do that.

I'll call an ambulance.

I'll call...

Damn it!

-Damn it. -Will...

Will?

We found you.

Let's move on to your family now.

What the hell?

Kunda.

Astratta.

What the hell...?

Montosse.

Help! Help me!

Canda.

Help!

Dad, I'm here. I have to hang up.

All right, sweetie. You can do this. You're strong.

Don't worry about his parents. You're all there for Will's sake.

Of course, it's terrible, but this might bring you closer.

I don't want to see them.

Thank you.

Do you take anything to help you sleep?

Nothing works.

-When did you get here? -A couple of days ago.

Joseph kind of lives here now. His parents gave him the summer house.

Look up.

-Since when do you have a gun? -It's not mine. It's Joseph's.

-I guess he wants to feel tough. -Joseph, tough?

That's kind of cute.

-Hi, Polly. How are you? -She probably doesn't remember you.

But it's only been a year, after all.

I think we're about the same size.

Max, you've gotten so big! I've missed you.

-Considering the construction, shouldn't we... -No, they promised to stop at noon.

They'll probably be done any minute now.

We have gathered here...

We have gathered here today to honor the memory of William Price.

To honor him and share memories of him.

As long as these memories live on, William will always be with us.

I would now like to ask Mrs. Susan Price, Williams' mother

to say a few words.

-Bonnie, what are you doing? -No, that's Susan, Grandma.

-Aunt Bonnie has passed away. -Don't worry about her.

William.

My sweet boy.

I could talk for hours about what an amazing child he was.

A perfect teenager. And a man who made us so proud.

He was so fond of French cuisine that after completing his studies in Paris

brought a French wife home with him. Alice.

Will dreamed of starting a family.

You would have made wonderful parents.

And we could have become Grandpa Edgar and Grandma Susan.

I would give anything just to be together again.

Thank you, Susan. I'm really sorry for all the commotion.

Alice.

Would you like to share something? Perhaps a memory of your husband?

I didn't prepare a speech.

Oh, really?

Okay... Oops.

In that case, I'd like to play a tune that meant a lot to William.

Your wedding song.

I would like to say goodbye to my son one last time.

Well...

You can pick up the ashes in a few days, but you're actually not allowed to be here.

Excuse me.

My son has just died.

Five minutes. But don't tell anyone.

Thank you.

I offer my condolences.

What the hell?

Will!

Wait, wait!

Will, I'm coming!

Will, hang in there!

I'm coming!

What the hell?!

Come with us. See you there.

-How far is it? -Less than five minutes.

-But what the hell... -Everything okay?

Yeah, but you know they don't want me there.

-That's not true. -Here's a band-aid.

Oh my...

They just want everyone to be together. You're part of the family.

Even Mom. She was touched that you agreed to cremation.

And that we could do it wherever she wanted.

-She really appreciates you. Seriously. -Maybe so.

Dad, on the other hand... He can't stand you, for God's sake.

Oh my God...

-It looks so run-down now. -Have you been here before?

We got married here.

Mom? Dad?

I'll be right there.

Grandma, do you know where Mom is?

She's still at school. School ends at four.

Okay, thanks.

Mom?

-What are you doing? -What do you think?

-“You invited Alice, after all.” -“She was Will’s wife.”

I'll take care of it.

When you got the house, I asked you to throw everything away. Why are his things still here?

I wanted to keep something that belonged to my grandpa. It felt like throwing him away.

-He turned us down, after all. -I know.

But some of these things are fascinating.

...demons that take possession of the flesh, beings just as evil...

...as if the devil himself were here.

-Do you find that fascinating? -It's the inspiration for my book.

-Is it about Grandpa? -No, not about him.

About his research. I mean, curses and demons...

There are all kinds of weird gadgets from all over the world here, and he was a member of some secret society.

-It was a cult. -They were historians.

He wrote everything down in his notebook. I was going to tell you.

Let me tell you something. My father wasn't a good person, Joseph.

When Mom's mind began to fail, he withdrew.

"The Circle of the Wise" was more important than us.

He was constantly off on expeditions or had his nose buried in some old book.

When Aunt Bonnie got sick, he left us for good.

In Search of Rusty Weapons and Crumbling Scrolls

to "protect us from evil."

That's how he talked all the time, because he didn't dare face life's difficulties!

I had to take care of my family.

I'm sorry, Mom.

-You should get some rest. -It's okay. It's just the pills.

Lunch will be in an hour.

Throw this away.

-Let me go! -She insists on going out alone.

-Grandma! -I was just trying to help.

Bonnie, I've got her! She's stealing my money!

-Call the police! -We were just trying to...

-Grandma, how are you? -Calm down.

-It's broken. -Just a moment, Mom.

-You thief! -Oh my God...

Dad?

Dad.

It's out of gas.

-Don't worry about the yard. -Someone has to do it.

-I will, but I don't have... -We gave you the house.

And you let it fall into disrepair.

Do you want to live in this dump?!

Dad...

Dad, help me...

We're in.

Let us in, Dad.

It's okay.

Don't fight it.

You can do it.

Go ahead.

Go for it!

Edgar?

Edgar, is everything okay?

Please don't say anything to my wife...

I'll take care of this one.

-What happened? -I tripped in the basement.

-I dropped the plates. Sorry. -I heard that.

Can you put this on the dining room table? Be careful—I made it myself.

-Have you? -That's Niobe, a Greek queen.

-She's Edgar's favorite. -That's nice.

Yes.

-Why did you quit? -First, the kids came along.

Then my sister Bonnie got sick. And Mom couldn't manage on her own.

-“You were talented, so that was a shame.” -“Why’s that?”

I was among the people I loved and built my life there.

Without my family, I am nothing.

Thanks, Joseph. That was nice.

How are you?

That's great.

No.

That's Will's spot.

Big boy Will! When is he coming here?

Edgar, can you open the wine?

No problem, I'll take care of it.

That was really delicious.

It's ready-to-eat food; I just heated it up.

Joseph is right—they're really delicious. I would never have guessed they were frozen.

That was alarming.

It's perfectly obvious: frozen food on paper plates.

If you're going to run the restaurant, you should be able to tell the difference between frozen and fresh.

As for the restaurant, I don't think I'll...

-Let's talk about it another time. -We can talk about it now.

After all, we're all here.

I haven't decided anything yet, but it was Will's restaurant, after all.

-You two ran it together. -I just handled the bookkeeping.

But you're his wife.

Are you sure?

To be honest, I had planned to go back home to Paris for a while.

And stay with my dad.

You just said that you hadn't decided anything yet.

-We should handle this as a family. -Yes.

We should handle it as a family.

The staff adores you.

Alice, they need you.

Think of Will. Do it for his sake.

Wait a minute, I recognize you.

You're married to my grandchild, aren't you?

Don't turn a deaf ear. I asked a question.

-I... -It's okay.

I'm just saying that you have the opportunity to take over a successful business

and at the same time honor Will's memory.

It was his life's work, his passion.

-You should pass that along. -We should probably talk about this some other time.

No, it's best to lay all the cards on the table now.

-He's right. -You're driving me crazy!

-Without me, you're nothing! -Will would have wanted it that way.

-That's your damn problem! -Do it for his sake.

We're trying to have a baby, for God's sake! You have no idea what you want!

Say it! Don't fucking piss me off, Alice.

Alice, calm down.

I'm calm. But you shouldn't speak for Will.

I am his mother. No one knows him better than I do.

Grandma, no...

I'm sorry. We're all here for his sake, but I think Alice is right.

-This isn't the time for... -It never is for you, is it?

-And that's why you're a failure. -Edgar, please...

Don't you dare touch me.

We're all grieving. You don't have to be mean.

-It's okay. -No.

Where is it?

Where is the wedding ring?

-Why aren't you wearing it? -Did you sell it? Did you get a good price for it?

-No, of course not. -Edgar, can I have the corkscrew?

A hoodie and sneakers at her husband's funeral...

-I'm sitting right here. Talk to me directly. -You didn't even cry.

-Isn't that strange? -People grieve in different ways.

Get lost!

Will is dead, and now you're putting us through this?

-That's enough, Dad. -It's your fault he's dead.

-You didn't stop him from driving! -Stop it, Dad!

-Will got into a fight with Alice, and... -Was it my fault?

-“Of course not.” -“You couldn’t stop him either.”

-That doesn't mean it was my fault. -That's not what I meant.

-Alice, I think... -Mind your own business. You don't know anything.

-You're glad he's dead. -Please, Will is watching us from above.

From above?

He's way down there.

What are you doing? Stop it!

The dog!

Help me...

-Help... Help me! -Go get the car keys.

-Take him to the hospital! -Thya, help me.

-Grab his arm. -I've got him.

What have we done to deserve this?

They left without saying goodbye.

-Is he completely out of his fucking mind? -Thya, come on...

-He killed your dog! -I know!

Damn, he's bleeding everywhere.

Damn it... Come on!

Joe, your dad...

No!

Oh my God!

Stop it!

Let her go!

"Let her go," I said! "Shoot, for God's sake!"

Shoot him, for God's sake!

Shoot me, Joe.

Shoot me.

Shoot me.

Shoot me, Joe.

Shoot me!

Joseph!

Four Dead After Cottage Fire

"October 1983."

"That damned 'Book of the Dead.' I warned them not to read it."

"The forbidden spell, four words that unleash evil."

"But they didn't listen.

"December 1983. I've finally found it.

"A weapon that can stop them all.

"A dagger created by the Circle of the Wise.

"Even the slightest wound from its ancient blade rips the souls of demons from their bodies."

"I've hidden it, but I have to leave again.

"These beasts are hunting me, and I must protect my wife and daughters."

"Kunda."

"Astratta."

"Montosse."

No way.

Alice?

-What's the matter? -Your dog... attacked me.

I don't understand.

What happened?

Where is your father?

I think Dad just killed Thya.

Open up, it's me!

She wants my money.

For your perfect family.

Cheers.

Joe, that hurts. Please...

Don't do it!

-Where's your dad? -We have to get out of here. Alice, come on!

Hurry up!

Edgar.

-Sweetie. Let me go! -Mom!

You should have died, not Will.

No!

NO COVERAGE

He's just standing there, staring.

-We're stuck in here, for crying out loud! -I'll be right there, Mom.

Children?

Please, open the door.

Did you come back to return what you stole?

Exactly.

Oh my God! Mom, how did it go?

Mom, are you okay?

It's okay. It went well.

We're going to destroy it...

No more wise men...

We're going to destroy it...

Should I go, or do you want to?

You go.

Take Grandma upstairs.

Did you think you'd get to have all the men in the family all to yourself?

Joseph, come here!

-Help! -Forget it, sweetie.

That's not his style.

"Come on," I said!

Susan...

Stop coddling the boy.

He has something we need.

Give us what we came here for!

I told you she was a thief!

Have you gotten brave now?

Boo!

I was your first...

...and I'll make sure I'm your last.

So you refused to shoot your dad.

But to kill me...

...is everything okay?

Come here right away, young lady! I have what you're looking for!

I'll be right there, honey.

The money is under the mattress. Take it and leave us alone.

This place is a total mess.

But there's something we want inside your little head.

Your husband must have told you where it is.

This should do the trick.

But Polly...

Where's your leg?

That little...

The Circle of the Wise failed. Your grandfather failed. You're all going to die tonight.

Alice...

I'm coming, Alice.

Your time is up.

Joe, what is "The Circle of the Wise"?

-I didn't think they were real. -Just tell me.

I saw the distorted drawings.

Did Will say anything about our grandpa?

When we were kids, we were always told that he was unstable.

In his diaries, he described a group that was convinced that the devil had been there.

And that he would return if anyone read from what he called...

..."The Book of the Dead".

Grandpa abandoned the family and traveled around the world

to conduct research and collect artifacts that would protect us from this.

Do you still have them?

Mom asked me to throw everything away when he died, but...

-But what the hell... -But I didn't.

There are still a few things stashed away in the attic. And Thya...

That creature inside her said they were looking for something.

Maybe that will stop them.

Mom, drink this.

Can you look under the bed?

Dad always makes sure there aren't any monsters there.

-No monsters. -You're lying.

Don't worry, you're safe here.

Good night, Mom.

Good night, Susan.

What did you call me?

Come on, sweetheart.

Mom...

I've missed you.

I've missed you so much.

We share the same dream. It can still come true.

The whole family can be reunited.

Will is already on his way. He'll be here soon.

Don't be afraid, Susan.

Remember what you said at the funeral.

That you would give anything...

...so that we could all be together again.

Without your family, you're nothing.

I miss you.

I miss us.

You haven't kissed me like that in years.

Your dad's gone; maybe we could...

Joseph?

-Is Grandma doing well? Is everything okay? -Yes, everything's better now.

You have to trust me.

-“Trust you?” -“They’re not our enemies.”

I realize that now. They just want something back that my father stole.

I did tell you, after all, that he was a bad person.

It's easy. Just tell them where it is.

Give them what they want, and this will all be over.

We can be happy again.

What is it?

A weapon.

-But we threw everything away. -You're lying to me.

Tell us where it is.

"Us"?

Where is the Kandarian dagger?

Alice, run!

Edgar! Leave us alone!

You need to stop meddling in our family affairs.

You promised!

You promised you wouldn't hurt him!

Finally, I'm getting some use out of this awful piece of junk.

Come here.

Look what you did.

Finally, something you can be proud of.

-Did you say something? -I know where the dagger is!

Nothing will stand in our way now. Once we have the dagger...

-Edgar, stop it! -Damn it...

Help me!

Let me go!

Where is the dagger?

Where is it?

Reply!

Reply!

Find it before they do...

Stop whining— I'm just giving you what you want.

You liked it when Will hurt you. Isn't that why you stayed?

Don't turn a deaf ear. I asked a question.

Susan, help...

Susan, my dear.

Could you step on the gas and cut this bitch's face off?

She caused chaos in our family.

Your son died because of her.

Do it, for Will's sake.

Go for it!

Go for it!

Oh, Susan...

Go for it!

I'm sorry, Alice.

Is that Joseph?

Is that my son?

Come on!

Hurry up!

-What are you doing?! -Shut up!

Be grateful that I didn't leave you.

Just try to move!

Grateful?

My family is gone.

Everyone I love is gone because of you.

You've only caused us pain.

-I hate you. -Shut up, Susan!

Shut the hell up!

I haven't done anything to your family. It was already there.

Do you see this?

See? Your son did this. That's the kind of thing he was capable of.

-It was an accident! -No, it wasn't!

It wasn't. And you knew it.

You knew, Susan.

You deserve everything that has happened to you.

Every single damn thing. But you know what?

I've put that behind me now. I don't give a damn anymore.

You're right. The past is behind you.

Right behind you.

Like a shadow.

There's no escaping it.

Just when you think you're safe, that you've healed...

When you let out a sigh of relief...

...my son will be there.

As a husband should.

And he's going to burn you...

...like the whore that you are.

You'll be dead before dawn!

Alice! Help me up.

I know where the dagger is. I can help you find it.

And then I'll cut you up, just like my brother should have done.

You're useless, just like my grandpa.

Shut up!

He never found it, and neither will you.

Let me put an end to your miserable life.

You like pain anyway.

That's why you let Will hurt you, isn't it?

Poor little Alice...

You'll be found alone in an attic.

Split open from her boobs to her butt.

But you didn't want to have kids anyway. So your body is useless.

Wrong knife.

The Circle of the Wise is dead.

Come here, you little brat. I told you it's not here.

-My family is going to... -Your family can go to hell!

Did you stay because you liked it?

Or were you too scared to leave me?

Look at you now.

You still can't leave.

Do you remember the last thing you said to me?

"Go to hell!"

You got what you wanted.

I shouldn't have hurt you, Alice.

I should have killed you.

This is where I promised to always stay with you.

Where I promised that not even death would separate us.

I'm going to keep my promise, Alice.

Because without me...

...you're nothing.

DANGER NO ENTRY

Hello?

Hello?

I could never have lived without you.

And you can't live without me.

Damn...

Where is the dagger?

Where is it?!

Where is it, Alice?

Pick it up yourself.

Where is the dagger?

Spill it or burn, you bitch!

Here's your damn dagger!

I love you.

That's not enough.

Do you have a cigarette?

-I'm not supposed to... -Just give it to me.

Who did this?

My ex-husband.

You nasty little French minx!

Ma'am, what happened? How are you?

Thank you, dear God! Please help me.

She stole my legs!

But yours are just fine.

I know it's no fun to come with me to work on a Saturday.

But I've had to handle everything on my own since then... Yeah, you know.

I'll make it up to you tonight.

Why do you keep all those urns for people who are dead?

Well...

It's actually quite sad. These are people whose families never came to pick them up.

We'll keep them here for a few months, just in case a family member shows up.

Okay, don't touch anything. It might have to do with the crematorium job. I'll be right there.

"Christopher Leroy".

"Ellie Bixler".

Hey there...

Mom?

Don't be afraid, sweetheart.

Mom is back.
