[Hart] The mansion was built

by the greatest hat maker ever known.

Mr. Frederick Williams.

Though he was criticized for his ungodly parties

by a more prudish set...

-Yes, Henry? -Why?

Well, they were described as a drug-fueled orgy.

Now why am I, a psychology professor,

interested in Mr. Williams?

[student] Because you're freaky.

[all laugh]

[Hart] My interest lies

in the more animalistic psychology.

Is anyone familiar with the subject?

-Yes? -It's the effect of paranormal

on our emotions and behavior.

[Hart] Correct.

[student] Are you saying it's haunted?

Maybe.

Now, I will be testing

the effect that paranormal implications have

on individual behavior.

Now, this estate is all that's left.

And, of course, his nickname.

[school bell rings]

You have a good weekend.

[inaudible]

Thank you.

Henry?

All right.

[thunder rumbling]

You guys excited about this?

[Ian] No.

[Val] Don't be mean.

[Ian] I'm just doing it for extra credit.

[Val] And I'm just doing it to get out of the house.

Parents suck, am I right?

[Ian] Why are you?

[Henry] Same.

Same as both of you.

[♪♪♪]

[girl giggling]

[Hart] Henry.

Come on.

I want to get there before dark.

[♪♪♪]

[♪♪♪]

[♪♪♪]

[turns ignition off]

Oh, man. Frederick Williams' daughter died in that fire.

That's so sad.

-[van doors close] -Come on.

[♪♪♪]

I need all of your cell phones.

[Val] Over my dead body.

Let's hope it doesn't come to that.

-[Val laughs] -Listen, I need you all

-focused on this study. -[Chelsey] I can't.

I need to check in back home.

[Hart] It's okay. I'll be just down the hall

in case of emergencies.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Come on. Cell phones. Cell phones.

Thank you.

Ha, ha, ha.

Now we can begin.

-[gate doors creak open] -Hello.

-[knock on door] -Hello?

[knocking on door]

Hello?

-Hello? -[Ian] Told you it was abandoned.

-[jiggles doorknob] -The door's open.

Hello? Oh, hi.

I'm Professor Hart. We're here for the weekend.

[growls]

Okay. Come on in. Come on.

You're so-- Don't be an idiot.

[Ian] I was just testing him.

[Val] Is that...?

[Hart] The hatter's daughter.

[door creaks closed]

So morbid.

[Hart] But come on, take a look at the ballroom.

Bon appétit.

[Chelsey] I wonder what happened here.

[Ian] Definitely some messed-up shit.

[Val] God, could this house be any colder?

[Chelsey] Well, a lot of people say

that it gets colder when ghosts are around.

-[Ian snarls] -[Chelsey and Val] Ooh!

[Hart] Just think of this all

like a twisted amusement park.

All part of the show.

[♪♪♪]

[Val] So pretty.

[Hart] Now let's talk a little bit about the study.

I would like for of you

to journal daily.

Write down the good, the mundane.

Pretty much anything you see.

Even the strange.

We'll try and meet daily and discuss

what you see and what you don't see.

Now, how many of you have tried hypnosis?

[Chelsey] I tried it a couple of times.

[Hart] Hypnosis is a very powerful tool.

Hypnosis has the ability to bridge the gap

between the reality and the spiritual world.

Would you like to try?

[Chelsey] I'll actually pass for now.

Henry?

Do I have to go first?

Ian, you go.

Yeah. Go.

Let's get this over with.

Shall we begin?

[ticking]

Listen to every tick.

Feel the weight of your body.

Your head.

Your limbs.

Let my voice be your guide.

Let it be your lifeline connecting you

from the past to the present.

Floating weightless and unrestrained.

-Can you hear me, Ian? -Yes.

-Where are you, Ian? -I'm in my room.

At the orphanage.

-Who's there? -Kids. Hiding.

From who?

[girl] Henry.

[man] You can't hide from me.

The room's empty.

He's in the hall.

The room's empty. There's nowhere to hide.

[Val] Wake him up. Wake him up!

Wake him up! Ian! Ian! Wake him up!

-Why aren't you waking him up? -Come back, Ian.

What?

You were in an orphanage?

What did I say?

Are you okay?

Ian.

Ian. Ian.

I...

[Hart] Morning, Henry.

Good morning.

[Hart] Would you like some tea?

Yeah. Sure.

Thank you.

I've never been much for coffee.

Me neither.

But I adore tea.

Thanks.

Whoo. Yeah, yeah.

I...I don't really drink tea either.

It's good.

Did you sleep well?

No. I...

I keep having this...

it's a reoccurring nightmare.

I understand.

I struggle as well.

These...

These...

These nightmares, they're...

they're real.

They're really real.

What if--

What if they're not my imagination?

I don't deserve to be alive.

I can help you, Henry.

Okay.

Okay.

Are you ready for your session?

Yes.

Oh, God.

Would you like some tea?

No, thanks.

[laughing]

[laughing] Stop. Stop.

[clears throat]

What?

Sorry, I--

I wasn't looking at you.

No, we're being kind of rude.

All right.

I'm officially bored.

What should we do?

We can play a game.

Poker?

-I like hearts. -Yeah. No, thanks.

Maybe we shouldn't be touching those.

Ugh! What are you afraid of?

Dude, stop it, man.

[snickers]

Stop.

-Stop. -[mimics and laughs]

[Val] This would look a lot better on you, babe.

-[Ian] Let me see it. -[Val] Try it on.

Huh. Down the rabbit hole.

Ian.

Ian, that's not funny.

[grunting]

Ian, stop.

Seriously, stop.

-Take it off! Take it off, guys! -[body thuds]

-[screaming] -Oh, my God! Take it off! Ian!

[laughs]

[Val] You're such a dick.

That's not funny after that hypnosis shit.

-They thought it was funny. -[Chelsey] It was pretty funny.

It was pretty good.

Fine.

[Chelsey] What about this?

A fancy funeral.

[Val] Yes, girl.

[Val and Chelsey laugh]

[Val] Give me that one.

I would like a milk latte, please.

-[Chelsey] Voilà. -[Val] Danke.

[Chelsey giggles]

Ooh, la, la.

Enchante.

Fortune and glory, kid.

Fortune and glory.

You want that gun? Pick it up.

I wish you would.

What? You know Indiana Jones but you don't know John Wayne?

Who's that?

Whatever.

[Val] Awkward.

Ian...

Ian. Ian, hand me that.

-Look at you. -Put it on me.

-Yeah. -Anything for you.

Sorry.

[in Southern accent] You ready to go for a ride?

-I'm ready. -[laughs]

Saddle up.

[in English accent] My husband, he slipped.

[mock crying]

I feel for you so much.

Hey, guys?

Ah!

Are they real?

Let's do something else.

[laughter]

[Ian] There's got to be something.

You guys aren't looking for...?

Booze? Yeah.

Come on. Why not?

Hey, babe?

I think I found something.

I think it's a wine cellar.

-God, I love you. -[laughs]

[Val] And flashlights.

[Ian] You're a goddess.

-A queen among princesses. -[Val laughs]

It's kind of dark.

You guys coming?

You guys are pathetic.

-I'll go. -[Ian] Hell, yeah.

I'm definitely going.

Thanks.

Fine.

[floorboards creaking]

[♪♪♪]

That's not...

[girl] Papa. Papa.

I can see, Papa.

Jackpot.

[laughing] Oh!

[Val] Ow. Gross.

-[squeaks] -Oh!

-What was that? -Definitely not a rabbit.

[Val] Not funny.

[Ian] That's odd.

-[blows] -What?

-[Ian] No labels. -[Val] You guys about finished?

That's definitely some really strong moonshine shit.

[Chelsey] They bottle it here.

[Val] Guys, seriously?

Screw this.

[gasps and screams]

Hey, we were just looking around.

We didn't do anything wrong.

-We're going right now-- -[shrieks]

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

[Henry] What the hell, man?

[Val gasps and screams]

Try me! Come on!

Try me.

Don't even do that.

It's okay. It's okay.

He wasn't going to do anything with us, I promise.

You good? Because I'll kill him.

It's fine.

He's halfway there.

Just...chill out.

For a second there I thought we might die.

-I could tell, wuss. -[Val] Ian.

Come on.

[sighs]

-At least we got this. -[Val] Yeah.

And this.

[Ian] Clutch.

Quiet guy trying to get lit?

[all chuckle]

Guys, I have to show you something.

The Frederick Williams estate.

What a fox.

-Ooh! -Stop it.

Dude loved hats.

[Val] And parties.

Man, I wish I could go to one of those.

But check this out.

[classical string music playing]

[♪♪♪]

Papa.

-Emma. -I couldn't sleep, Papa.

More nightmares?

Go to your room. I'll be up soon.

[Val] Frederick Williams' daughter died in that fire.

Eternal night.

Eternal life.

Praise be.

[all] Eternal night. Eternal life.

Praise be.

[Chelsey] Eternal night. Eternal life.

[Henry] What is that?

A sculpture.

Give it a rest and dance with me.

Hm?

-[humming] -Go.

[laughing]

[giggling] I just tripped!

No, you'll drink the whole thing.

Mm, honey...

[Val laughs]

-[Ian humming] -[Val] Stop.

That is so gross.

Barely any.

[Ian humming]

You want some?

[Val, laughing] That's bad.

Stop.

Mm.

[humming]

You know, he's not as bad as he seems.

I never said he was bad.

Oh, no, I'm just...

just...I took a bio class with Ian last semester,

and, you know, he's...

I mean...

Yeah, he's a little loud.

-[yelps] -[Ian grunts]

-[laughing] -You fell again.

That's evident.

[Val] Help me up.

But he's a good person.

He definitely has some anger issues, but...

we all have something.

-[Ian giggling] -[Val] Read it to me.

Read it to me.

[mumbles]

Mm!

[laughs]

My dad's dying of cancer.

I worry he'll die every time I leave the house.

I'm sorry, Chelsey. I...

I didn't know.

I worry so much, I started seeing him everywhere.

Earlier, I could have sworn I saw him in the hallway.

He relies on me so much.

Yet here I am...

chasing ghosts.

It's only a few days, right?

That's what he says too.

What if it's not, you know?

What if something happens?

I lost my mom when I was very young.

[Val, laughing] Oh, not all of it!

Give me that!

Do you believe in ghosts?

I have to believe there's a tether to my parents

before I'm left here alone.

Yeah.

Yeah.

What about you?

Hm?

What's your something?

[Ian] You guys got any left?

No, we're all out, man.

[Val] Wow.

-Shit. -[blows raspberry]

[Val and Ian laughing]

Drink some.

It's all yours.

Okay.

[Ian humming]

[Henry sighs]

[clears throat]

Are you good?

Yeah.

I feel-- I feel great, actually.

[sighs] Why?

Do you feel good?

-I'm good. -Good.

Do you want to go for a walk?

Oh...

Just a walk.

Yeah. That's cool. Yeah.

-Sure. -Let's go.

I think I drank a little too much.

Yeah. Me too.

Good night, lovebirds.

[laughing]

[Chelsey] Good night, guys.

So you won't put the hands...

[Henry] Yes.

Push.

Oh, okay.

-Now you're a teacher. -[laughs]

[Henry] So, what did he say?

[Chelsey] He was like,

"Chelsey's going very hard."

-[Henry snickers] -And I was like, "No, no, no."

And then he was like, "Stop it.

Stop it, because you won't control yourself."

[woman] Help. Help.

Mia?

[Chelsey] Henry?

What happened?

Did you see anybody?

What? Come on.

-Nothing. -Let's go.

Help me up.

[moaning softly]

Miss me?

Whoa.

[laughs]

Thought you weren't real at first.

Oh, yeah? I thought you didn't believe in ghosts, tough guy.

No, but I believe in creepy old men

who hit on my girlfriend.

-Oh, yeah? -Yeah.

Don't be jealous.

-I'm not jealous. -[laughs]

I like this side of you.

-Oh, yeah? -Mm-hm.

Do I look sexy?

Yeah, baby. You always look sexy.

Uh-uh. I'm in charge.

[laughs]

What is this, a chastity belt?

[lips smack]

Careful.

[moans softly]

Not so hard.

Hey, I'm sorry about last night.

I drank way too much.

What are you talking about?

When you came over to my room.

I never went to your room.

You did when everyone went to sleep.

Babe, I can't do practical jokes right now.

I feel like I'm going to throw up.

Whatever it was, I'm sure it's fine.

Okay. Yeah.

I'll see you downstairs.

Okay.

Hey.

It's okay.

[Hart] See, you guilt is full right now.

And it's going to get empty.

And at that point, you'll return to balance.

Why would a good man

You're an uncivilized fat pig!

No man will ever love you.

Thank you.

So, where's Ian and Val?

Ian left last night.

He wasn't feeling well,

so I recommended he go home, and asked Val to go with him.

Oh.

Oh.

Okay.

Professor...

I would like to use my phone

just, you know, to make a phone call.

You should enjoy your final day.

You'll be reunited with your father real soon.

Are you feeling okay?

Of course.

Will you excuse me?

Your tea's getting cold.

Can you just excuse me for a minute?

[Henry] Who are you?

Henry, we got to leave this place.

I think the caretakers

are poisoning us and Professor Hart.

Come on.

Look, I'm seeing things too.

I saw burnt people in the ballroom.

I saw this strange hat factory with a bunch of chemicals.

Come on, Henry.

At first I thought they were spirits,

but now I think they're hallucinations.

I know you're scared of your dad dying, okay?

And if you are, then leave. But I want to stay.

I know you want to reconnect with Mia, but--

Henry? Henry, run!

[clock ticking]

[Henry] Chelsey, slow down!

-Slow down! -Ah!

I'm gonna try-- I'm gonna try opening it, okay?

We need help!

Somebody help us!

-[Chelsey screaming] -[panicked chatter]

[Chelsey] Please!

[Chelsey wailing]

[labored breathing]

Chelsey!

-Where am I? -You're passed out.

You're in my office, Henry.

What?

Where's Chelsey?

You're lucky I found you when I did.

She lost a lot of blood.

Is she okay?

I sent her to the hospital to get stitches,

and she's at home recovering now.

I need to apologize, Henry.

I didn't think bringing you here would push you this far.

But you're strong.

And I'm going to help you release all that water.

and return to balance.

Do you trust me, Henry?

[ticking]

Feel the pressure leaving your body.

Let it flow through your fingers.

Let my voice be your guide.

[Henry] Why isn't anybody calling somebody?

Call somebody!

I'm eternal, Henry.

Would you like this back?

I must fill this house for all eternity.

Sir...

I can give you the freedom that you need.

But you have a choice to stay here with me.

With who?

The Mad Hatter, of course.

He lost his hatter business and, some even say, his mind.

Now why am I, a psychology professor,

interested in Mr. Williams?
