[woman] Do you know why I'm here, Eric?

Your parents called me because they're worried about you.

You wanna tell me what's wrong?

You can trust me. I've helped others like you.

Are there more kids like me?

Sure.

All right, let me see here.

I think you're sad

because you had to leave your school and old house. Is that it?

Eric, it's all right to be angry.

I really don't like moving either.

But this house is really nice

and soon you'll make new friends and everything will be just like before.

So tell me, why do you have a hard time sleeping at night?

They always wake me up.

[woman] Who wakes you up?

The voices.

"Voices"? Your parents?

[sighs]

[uneasy music plays]

What do the voices want?

Sometimes they want me to draw things.

Eric, can you hear them right now?

Yeah.

What do they say to you?

I'm not allowed to tell you.

-[man] Then, what's wrong with him? -He has a great imagination.

And the voices that he says talk to him?

Your son is a very intelligent kid

that has had to learn to play alone and talk to himself, nothing more.

And the insomnia?

Sara tells me your job is to put up houses. Is that the case?

Yeah, we do. We renovate them.

It's possible it's due to the instability of all that moving.

That could also be the cause of some anxieties and problems sleeping.

-It makes sense. -[man] Yeah.

[tools continue hammering]

[drill whirring]

Dad here.

[Eric] You're supposed to say "over."

Over.

Dad here. Over.

[Eric] Could you help me get my ball out of the pool? It fell in again. Over.

Sure thing. Over.

I'm glad you waited here, buddy. I don't want you in there alone.

If it goes in again, just tell me.

-What's that? -This?

Do you know what an infestation is?

Is it the flies that live in my fireplace?

Pretty sure they're not just in your fireplace.

But don't say a word to your mom.

If she finds this is an old home, she'll kill me.

Eric!

Eric, time for your bath!

Come on, buddy. Try to take it from your dad.

[grunts] Here we go!

[grunts] Oh! Oh!

Oh, no!

What's this?

Eric, have you been playing with the cats again?

I told you don't go near them. You could catch something.

-Mama. -[Sara] Yes?

What is it?

Is it true that Papa hates me?

Where did you hear that nonsense?

Eric, I asked you a question.

Papa.

Your father told you that? When?

By walkie.

I hope you're not lying to me, Eric. Your father loves you very much.

And you know it.

[kisses] Come on, dinner time.

[water splashes]

[man on TV] I have your number, but I don't know you--

[woman on TV] Were you that drunk last night?

[man 2 on TV] We have special guest Germán Domingo

because he's just launched a brand new book. It's called…

Sounds from The Afterlife

How do you know when EVP is authentic?

The voices come from places where there was great misery.

And trust me, if you hear an EVP that's real,

that's something you'll never forget.

How many of the EVPs that you've analyzed are authentic?

[Germán] Very few. Almost none, I'd say.

Most of them are from human origin.

Things like voices from the street or the neighbor's TV.

-Dani? -Yeah, babe?

Did you yell at Eric or say something mean to him?

No, I didn't. Why?

[Germán] Why recordings don't show oscillation…

Never mind.

[Germán] …in the waveform, we still haven't figured that out.

[turns off TV]

You heard what the psychologist said, there's nothing seriously wrong with him.

I'm sure that as soon as he has a friend at school it'll be just fine.

I don't know, sometimes he says things that…

I don't know.

I think he's angry at me.

I'll try to get organized and I'll spend more time with him, all right?

All right, thank you.

Don't worry about it.

Eric? What's happened?

Eric, come here.

It was just a nightmare, that's all.

-[engine turns off] -[car doors opening]

-What's up? What happened? -He was expelled from school.

-What did you do? -Nothing.

What do you mean "nothing"?

He left class, hid in a closet, and bit the principal when he tried to get him.

-Does that sound normal? -Why'd you do that, son?

[Sara] Starting tomorrow, Dr. Carol's coming every day.

Mom, the doctor is dead.

-Where'd you hear that nonsense? -The voices told me.

[uneasy music plays]

[sighs]

Okay, go to your room. Do your homework. Go on.

[dog barking in the distance]

I can't do this on my own.

[uneasy music continues]

I'm sorry. I'm really sorry, truly.

If there's anything we can do, just let us know.

Understood.

Of course. Take care.

[Daniel sighs]

What happened?

Her car went off the road shortly after she left here.

How did he know?

-How could he know that? -Somebody must have told him at school.

[sighs]

What's wrong with him, Dani?

I don't know.

[knocking]

[door creaks open]

Can I come in, buddy?

-I brought you a sandwich. -I'm not hungry.

Well, you need to eat something, so come on.

Eric, last night before I came in to your room…

you were talking on the walkie, right?

With whom?

It was you.

You weren't talking to me, son.

It was your voice.

[uneasy music plays]

Come on, finish your sandwich, buddy.

Am I crazy, Papa?

How can you say that? Of course you're not crazy.

You're a bit confused because of…

the move and this whole mess. That's all.

Hmm?

I don't like this house.

Didn't you want a house with a pool?

No, I don't want to swim there.

Why don't we move somewhere else?

Until your mother and I renovate this place, we can't sell it. So…

Remember how well we did with the last one?

-We made a killing. -That's right. We made a killing.

Is Mom still mad at me?

She'll get over it. Don't worry.

Come on, eat.

Sure you don't want to come with me?

A few days away from the house would do you good.

I need to finish renovating ASAP.

Give your parents a kiss for me, okay?

What's the plan with the house?

Well, I don't know, Sara.

Right now, I don't.

I can't live here.

[inhales] What do you suggest?

I'm not sure if you've realized, we invested all our money in this.

All of it, Sara.

[exhales deeply]

[sniffles]

Take care.

[sighs]

[uneasy music plays]

-[Sara] Come on, run or we'll get wet. -[Eric] I love this house!

-[Sara] Cool, right? It's awesome. -[Eric] It's so big!

[Sara] Come on.

-It's huge! -[Sara] Yes, but it needs lots of work.

[Eric] Can we keep this one?

[Sara] Well, for a while, yes. Then we'll see, okay?

You know how it is.

Three, two, one…

Ta-da!

Wow!

This is awesome. It's huge.

[Sara] And it's your room.

-[Eric] Really? -[Sara] Yes.

What color should we paint it?

-[Eric] Can we put up my drawings? -[Sara] Like the other house?

Drawings everywhere. Downstairs, in the kitchen too. [laughs]

Dad, can we go for a swim in the pool?

Sweetie, have you seen the water? And it'll be freezing.

-[Eric] We'll clean it! -Yeah.

[Sara] Or I can take the room.

-[Eric] No! -[Sara] No?

[Daniel] Hi, honey. How are you?

I'm really sorry for how I acted this morning.

I didn't want to argue.

-Really? -Yes.

It could go there or…

We'll talk later, okay?

-[Eric] Can we build a barbecue? -[Sara] Sure.

I love you.

-[Sara] He doesn't like the room. -[Eric] Yes, I do!

[Sara] No, Eric…

-Yes, I do! -No, you don't…

-[Eric] Yes, I do! -[Sara] No…

Are you sure you like it?

-[Eric] Yes! -[Sara] You don't like it.

The robot doesn't like it either! He doesn't want to stay here!

I'll keep the room! [laughing]

-[Eric] He does that, too. -[Sara] No, I--

Yes, why?

[Sara] I couldn't understand your message at all.

All I heard were really weird voices, screams… I don't know. I was concerned.

-Are you sure you're all right? -Yes.

I have a weak signal. That could be it.

[Sara] Okay.

Hey, I'll call you back later, okay?

-[Sara] Okay, I love you. -I love you, too.

-[Germán] Thanks. -[Javier] Thanks.

-[Germán] You're welcome. -I'll leave you to it.

"TO MY WIFE, WAITING FOR ME ON THE OTHER SIDE"

Excuse me. Whom do I dedicate it to?

To Daniel.

"To Daniel."

[writing]

Here you go.

Are you a fraud, Mr. Domingo?

I beg your pardon?

Are the things you say in your book true?

Look…

I've written over ten books on electronic voice phenomena.

If I didn't think they were real,

I wouldn't have wasted my whole life.

I need you to hear a recording.

Email it to me. My email address is in the book.

I need you to hear it now.

Please.

My son just died.

I think I recorded his voice.

I know it's hard to accept the loss of a loved one,

especially a child, but you're clinging to something that isn't coming back.

I'm asking you, please.

Only you can help me.

Look, seriously, this isn't the way I do these things.

The waveform remains flat during that part of the recording.

In your book, you say that's evidence of a real electronic voice phenomenon.

Right?

[woman] You think this one's real?

-[Germán] Did you see the file I sent you? -Yes.

You know it could be doctored.

Ruth, why would a father fake the voice of his dead son?

It makes no sense.

I don't know, Dad. You get excited about these things, but then…

I have a good feeling about this one.

[sighs] Fine.

[car door closes]

-Should I start unloading? -Mm-hmm.

-Is that a joint? -Yeah, of course.

It's a cigarette.

With your brains, I don't know why you still smoke, sweetie.

-Thanks for coming so soon. -Don't mention it.

Ruth, this is Daniel…

Velasco, Daniel Velasco.

-Pleasure to meet you. -I'm very sorry about your son.

-Shall we? -[Ruth] Yes, of course.

[creaking]

Sorry for the mess, but, as you can imagine,

it's been a very rough couple of days.

-Don't worry about it. -[fly buzzing]

-[Germán] Is anyone else here? -[Daniel] No. My wife is with her parents.

Is there a room that's a bit more out of the way?

A basement or something where I can set up?

[Daniel] No basement, but plenty of free rooms.

What's this for?

My son said someone was talking to him over the walkie.

I mean, he said he actually heard my voice.

I see.

[uneasy music plays]

In the recording, it sounds like my son is yelling for me to help him.

Is he trying to tell me something?

[Germán] Maybe.

But I'm warning you that the message may be unpleasant.

What do you mean?

Look…

I'm certain that…

what comes after death isn't what we've been told for centuries.

What do you mean?

My son's in some horrible place?

He was only eight. What could he have done to deserve that?

Is this place less horrible?

War, children dying from hunger, sickness…

Why would it be any different there?

I can't tell you your son is in heaven surrounded by angels, Daniel.

I just can't.

I'll tell you what I know. We have to be ready for anything.

If my son actually needs help, I'm willing to do whatever it takes.

[grunts in agreement]

[uneasy music continues]

How'd it happen?

Couldn't he swim?

He knew how to swim.

The police say he probably got tangled in a branch while trying to get his ball.

But I know that's impossible.

He never came in alone. He didn't like it.

Don't ask me why, but I have a feeling something else happened.

[uneasy music intensifies]

[camera beeps]

[music fades]

[camera beeps]

-[Daniel] You good? -Fuck!

Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you.

Don't worry, I'm just a bit jumpy.

Probably not the best trait for this work, right?

This isn't my job.

I just help my dad sometimes. That's all.

What's all this stuff?

I use "this stuff" to study sounds that the human ear can't hear.

Sounds from The Great Beyond, like your dad's book.

Well, unlike him, I don't think they come from the dead.

I'm certain the voice I recorded was my son's.

[knocking]

[Germán] How's it going?

Everything is almost ready.

Ready when you are, boss.

Let's get to it.

[Ruth, through radio] Aim at the corner.

[Germán] Anything?

[Ruth] No, no signal.

[inhales deeply]

[sighs] Dad, I really don't think we're gonna find anything.

Be patient, sweetie.

You can't attain knowledge without patience.

Enjoying yourself?

What's so bad about enjoying your work, Ruth?

How on earth did Mom put up with you?

[light static]

Dad.

What is it?

Tell Daniel to go outside. He's creating interference.

-[Germán] Ruth. -Yes?

-What is it? -[Germán] You can't be seeing Daniel.

Why not? He's in his son's room.

I see him.

I see him too, and he's outside.

[uneasy music plays]

[Germán] You can see something in the boy's room, right?

Dad, this is really weird.

[Germán] I wish I could answer that question, Daniel.

You were there. Didn't you see anyone?

I saw nothing. No one was there.

Are you saying there's a presence in my house?

Take it for what it is, sweetie.

A paranormal phenomenon.

You recorded that silhouette.

A thermal silhouette, Dad.

To measure the temperature of something, you need a physical entity.

We may not understand it, but that doesn't mean it isn't real.

We have to keep trying tomorrow.

Sit.

[liquid pouring]

It's been a while.

Did you miss me?

I miss you every day.

You haven't changed a bit, Sofía.

I had to get something out of it.

I've waited so long for this moment, my love.

Haven't you?

Me too.

No.

I think I read about it.

[breathes heavily] What does it mean?

I don't know.

But… I don't think we can trust what we see or what we hear.

Anything could be a trap.

-Set by whom, Germán? -[Germán] I don't know, Daniel.

Look…

I'm afraid that the voice you recorded…

may not be your son's.

I'd recognize my son's voice anywhere.

I'm sorry my wife was so abrupt. She's really struggling as well.

Here it is.

I knew I'd seen it before. Look.

What's this?

-What does it mean? -[Germán] It's a threat.

It was used in the Middle Ages to warn outsiders who crossed into her territory.

-Whose territory? -A witch's.

This house, Daniel.

Apparently, 300 years ago, this place served as a court.

A court, here?

The Inquisition.

Yes, they must have tortured and murdered dozens of innocent women here.

It's hard to believe anyone deserved to be burned.

But, while it was unfair most of the time,

evil has always existed--

-[glass shatters] -[Ruth screams]

[dark music playing]

Sara!

Dad, are you okay?

Sara! Hold on!

Sara! Sara!

[wailing] Sara!

Come on.

Sara!

Had the couple fought recently?

[Ruth] No, seriously.

I'm telling you, I met him 24 hours ago.

[man speaking indistinctly]

[Ruth] Yes, of course. If I remember anything else…

[dogs barking in the distance]

[pants]

[man] If you remember anything, call us.

-Thanks. -Have a nice day.

[Germán] Hey, hey.

Sweetie, I want you to look at this.

We need to talk.

I think I know where we can find the remains of the people they tortured--

Dad, listen to me. We need to leave.

-I'll get our things. -Ruth! Wait, wait!

But you heard them, too. The voices.

They're here, trying to tell us something.

I've been searching for this my whole career.

We can't leave now. Don't you see?

I can't go.

You're just doing all this because of Mom, right?

What are you saying?

What happened?

Dad, tell me what happened.

I think I deserve to know why she did what she did.

I'm not a little girl.

You're still my little girl.

It's over. We're leaving.

I hope one day you'll realize running away from everything

isn't always the answer.

Daniel!

-What? -[yells] She's here!

-Easy, Daniel. -[Daniel] Don't you feel it?

-I hear her everywhere. -No one is here.

-[yells] She's here, Germán! -Calm down, Daniel! No one's here!

No one is here.

Look at me, Daniel. No one is here.

Calm down. No one is here.

Listen to me, Daniel.

That's it. Relax.

It's all right.

All right.

How can you live with this?

[shaky breathing]

How do you go on knowing your son needs help and you can't do anything?

[inhales deeply]

[shaky exhale]

[inhales deeply]

Knowing you'll never find out what really happened to your family?

[inhales deeply] How the fuck do you live with that?

[Germán] It isn't easy, Daniel.

I can tell you that.

It's all my fault.

I brought both of them to this place.

Now I'm alone.

No, you're not.

Look… [panting]

I think I know where we can find…

…the source of what's happening here.

[dark music plays]

If this place served as a court,

the people they killed here must be hidden under our feet.

I think I know how we can get in.

My God.

[Daniel] What the fuck did they do to her mouth?

[flies buzzing]

The Holy Inquisition thought the punishment needed to fit the crime.

If the offense was blasphemy, lying, or manipulation,

torture was inflicted on the victim's mouth,

so she could never use it again.

[tense music plays]

[man 1] Kill her! Kill her!

-[man 2] Witch! -[yelling]

[woman yelling indistinctly]

[man 1] You'll pay for your crimes!

[woman yelling indistinctly]

She used her voice for evil!

That's why they tried to silence her forever.

[dark music plays]

All her rage has been locked up in here this whole time.

According to tradition, you can only destroy a witch with fire.

Here, take this.

It won't be enough.

-There must be more. -I'll go down. There's no time to lose.

-Where's Daniel? -He'll be down soon.

You stay here.

-What? No, no way-- -Listen to me, Ruth!

You asked for the truth of your mother's death.

You want to know why she killed herself? You want the answer?

Well, I don't have it, Ruth. I wish I did.

I dragged you here, and I will not let myself lose you too.

Promise me, if I don't come back in ten minutes,

you'll get out of this house.

Promise me.

Fine.

You're so grown up, my love.

You're a woman now.

Come here. Come closer, so I can see you.

I was very sad

because you didn't say goodbye.

You didn't come to my funeral.

[crying] Dad wouldn't let me.

I'm so sorry I couldn't be with you, my love.

But you're here now.

We're together now.

Come.

Come hug me.

Don't you want to hug Mom?

No, you're not my mother.

[Sofía] How could you say something so awful?

Come, my love. Give me a hug. Give me a hug.

Did it work?

I hope so.

But we're not sticking around to see.

[chuckles]

[Germán coughs]

I can imagine

what you must have felt all this time.

[Germán inhales deeply]

But I needed an answer, too.

That's why you started doing all this?

I always believed…

there was something dark behind your mother's death.

When she left us,

in such a horrible, such an absurd way,

I understood that evil exists.

And it lurks.

And if that's true…

maybe…

good spirits are near as well, right?

[Ruth softly chuckles]

So what now?

[deep breath]

Now you can go on with your life.

-Or maybe… -"Or maybe"?

A few days ago…

a friend of mine, a priest, sent me an email.

He wants me to interview a girl.

An exorcism?

It's probably an undiagnosed illness, but you never know.

Of course. [chuckles]

[inhales deeply] Well, for now, you need to rest.

And I need a week off.

Mh-hm.

Why am I here?

Free your servant Eleanor, so that she may no longer be prisoner.

Forever and ever.

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.

Amen.
