[bells jingling]

[calm music]

[Damon] The tragedy of life is not death.

For, there's honor in death.

Tragedy of life is what we let die inside of us

while we live.

This land has nurtured our people for generations.

This land is our mother.

It has given us life.

It has taught us to walk, to grow, to hunt,

to love, to fight,

to live and to die.

And when it was time to pass from this world,

this land cradled our bones and absorbed our souls.

So many of our dearly departed are buried here,

right under our feet.

This was our pact with Mother Earth,

from one generation to the next, for years and years,

until until the white man came.

He came to this land,

a land vast enough to accommodate many.

He came with the promise of friendship.

He came with the promise of peace.

With this understanding,

must one still welcomed the uninvited.

Time has passed and the land has received

many more of the uninvited.

But what the visitors never understood

is that the bond between mother and child is unbreakable,

irrespective of the circumstances of their separation,

mother and child must be together.

Time has passed, yeah, but for my people,

time has also stood still.

Listen closely.

Can you hear it?

The trees.

The trees are calling.

Mother Earth is calling

It's time for her children to come back home.

[door creaking]

Hey, how you feeling today?

Not one of my best days.

These medical bills really got me worried.

I know.

I'm sorry.

I hate that you worry about that.

You've done such a great job taking care of me.

Your parents would be so proud of you.

That means so much to me, auntie.

I really wish I got a chance to get to know them.

Hey, don't you be going and saying goodbyes now, okay?

Okay.

I promise

I'll get us through this.

Okay?

Okay.

I'll be back tomorrow, Auntie.

Okay.

[upbeat pop music]

[tires screeching]

[party crowd yelling and chattering]

Hey, has anyone seen Ricky?

Him and Laney went to take a drive.

They said they'd be right back.

A drive, huh?

I guess that's what they're calling it

after being apart for months.

My big bro has this Firebird in park

and I bet all you guys

he's with Laney in the back seat.

[guy laughing]

Oh my God.

Guess that calls for another beer.

[upbeat music]

It's supposed to be right here.

Why is it so important to you?

Goddammit!

I said enough.

You know this thing's nothing but bad luck.

Not sure why you want it so bad.

Oh, technically it isn't for you right?

It's for those Indians

at the casino on silver lake.

Those damn Cherokees

can't let sleeping dogs lie.

I say, leave the past in the past.

What's done is done.

What is it with these Indians

and their Hocus Pocus bullshit?

Am I right?

[Damon] Keep digging.

I don't believe in that shit.

Do you really think the ring is, is cursed?

Sorry, what's your name again?

That was a hell of a rodeo, cowboy.

I missed you Laney.

I missed you too.

Best early Christmas present ever.

You like that?

Just you wait until New Year's Eve.

Hey, where are you going?

I gotta take a leak.

[mysterious music]

Did I tell ya?

What did I tell ya?

Wait 'til you get a load of this.

It's a pretty sight.

[Damon] Where's the ring?

Wait, that's impossible.

Somebody must've taken it.

Nobody saw me down here.

Nobody knew I was down here.

I don't see it anywhere.

I swear it was in that box.

I'll find it.

I'll find it somehow.

I know it's gonna be here.

I know I fucked up, man, please.

Come on, please.

Gimme a chance, gimme a chance to find it for you.

No, please...

[man's neck snapping]

[Laney screaming]

Ricky!

Ricky!

Shit.

Shit, Ricky, where the fuck are you?

Ricky.

[Laney crying]

Goddammit!

Ricky, where the fuck are you?

[Laney screaming]

[Ricky] Come on.

[Ricky screaming]

[Ricky screaming]

[foot smashing]

[Laney sobbing]

[Ricky coughing]

[Laney screaming sharply]

[sinister music]

[Laney gasping]

Trish, you're counting, honey?

Coming. I'm coming.

[Mother] Honey, we're gonna be late.

She's not coming back.

No.

Good.

Good luck, Trish.

Now you boys behave

and don't do anything I wouldn't do.

Now, Chase, are you sure you're going to be okay?

Of course.

Why wouldn't it be okay?

It's a big place, John.

It's a big responsibility.

You guys, I'm gonna be fine.

Just enjoy your weekend, okay?

Yeah. Mr and Mrs. Larson have a great time

and I'll, I'll keep good...

I'll keep close, close, close eye on Chase.

Chase, can I speak with you privately for a minute?

Scram.

Now, listen son.

Yeah, dad?

I have no problem with your friend here spending the night.

His name is Javon.

Right, Javon.

But just remember you're the one in charge.

I know.

No funny business.

Make sure you lock up everything before bed.

And then of course, no parties.

Who would I invite to a party?

Javon's pretty much

my entire social life at the moment.

No one goes into my private study.

Relax, I'm not gonna let him in, it's off limits.

Good.

Yeah, have a good weekend.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Have a great time and Hey Mr. Larson,

don't worry about a thing.

It is on bro.

Party at Liberty Manor!

Damn.

How have you never invited me here before?

Oh, we should see if Adrianna and Kayla

wanna come up here.

Yeah.

So which way is your dad's study anyway?

Is that where he hides all the good scotch?

In case you haven't heard his study is totally off limits.

Why?

it's his little museum to this place?

Liberty Manor was built on some old Indian grounds.

So he keeps all the artifacts in there.

[Javon] That's fucking dope.

Just remember, it's off limits.

My dad would ground me for like a month.

[Javon laughing]

Ground you?

Ground you?

You're in college, homie.

Man up.

All right, so let me get this straight.

So it's you,

your sister,

your parents

in this big ass house?

Pretty much.

We hire a few people during the peak season,

but the rest of the time, it's just us.

Oh, and Mr. Jenkins, he's our groundskeeper.

Or, was our groundskeeper.

What happened to him?

We had to fire him.

He had a bad case of sticky fingers.

That sucks.

Yeah, just leaves us and the Indian ghosts.

What, what, what?

The Indian ghosts.

You know, sometimes you can hear him crying

out in the woods at night.

I'm just kidding.

Truthfully, it just comes down to what you believe.

The developers of this estate even found some remains

of an old burial ground right over there.

Really?

- Yeah. - That's fucking dope.

Not sure exactly what happened.

Over the trees though, am I right?

Sometimes at night they tell the story.

Cool, cool man.

Sweet, well, I'll, I'll tell Eddie

to bring you some peyote

and we'll pay some respects.

Pay respects?

This is our land now.

It's been in my family for generations.

Oh, well...

Guess you're just gonna have to smoke to that then.

All right, let's get this started here.

Yo, this place is dope!

Wow, this place is freaking huge.

Thank you.

Where's the master?

Oh, that's my parent's room.

So, that one's gonna be off limits.

Oh geez, don't be such a goody guide.

Kayla, I'm sure there's plenty of other rooms.

Lay off.

Fine.

Do you want me to bring you down the hall, Becky?

Huh?

[Chase] I can show you to your room?

[Becky] Yeah, thanks.

Yo. how many rooms they got?

I call dibs on this one.

[Eddie] This thing is huge.

Yo, this one's mine.

[cellphone buzzing]

Yeah?

David, I want an update.

Now, Mr. Jenkins didn't honor his word.

It's just a setback.

Don't let it ruffle your head dress.

You better find it.

Don't come back without it.

[knocking on door]

Adrianna.

Hey Chase.

This house is amazing.

Finally, now the party can start.

Let's go put your stuff away and pour a drink.

Sounds good to me,

But chase, where's the master?

Oh, it's all the way down the hall to the left.

I'll take you.

Okay.

[Chase] And it's just right around the corner.

[mysterious music]

Here's the master.

Awesome, this worked perfect, thanks Chase.

I'll be out in a minute, Chase.

Oh, right, sorry.

[upbeat pop music]

Yo, man, this party's off the hook, dog.

I dunno, you guys are getting pretty loud.

Hey boys.

Hey girlfriend.

Hello, Kayla.

Well, hello, Mr. Larson.

You need to loosen up a bit, man.

I am.

Whatever, dog.

You're as uptight as a camel's ass in a sand storm.

Wow, Chase, this place is amazing.

I just love the architecture.

The ceiling is mahogany, right?

I guess so.

Great, what were you saying?

One large pepperoni pizza.

Is that cool with everybody?

Hell yeah.

So what do you want from me?

I want you to have fun at your own party.

Javon, I don't think that's...

Listen, look man, look, look.

You gotta, you gotta talk to the people, you know?

Look at that vibe.

Socialize, mingle, you know?

Have you said anything to anyone today?

[indistinct]

That's what I'm saying.

What do you think I should do?

Excuse me, excuse me.

Can I get everybody's attention please?

Real quick, right up here, yo!

Can I just get a quick round of applause for my man,

Chase Larson for opening up his house

and for throwing this little shindig.

Give it up for him, y'all.

[cheering and applause]

Now, I bet a lot of you didn't notice,

but my man Chase, he's a mad Magician.

Yeah, nah, shut up, I got you.

Yeah, his routine is dope.

Yeah, he could do anything.

And I mean anything.

Yo, Magic Man, make Kayla's bra disappear.

You wish.

All right, all right, settle down, y'all, settle down.

Now, I'm about to introduce the magician on a mission.

The one and only, Chase Larson.

Give it up for Chase.

Yo, come on man.

Come on, y'all show him some love guys.

Show him some love.

Come on man, let's go, dog.

Show the people something, man.

Let's go.

Yeah, show him some love, come on, y'all.

Cheer him on, yeah!

You got this man, you got this, dog.

Show me some love.

Good evening, my friends.

I really only have one question for you tonight.

Do you believe in magic?

[all laughing]

Magic is no laughing matter.

The land you're on right now,

the earth beneath your feet,

the Liberty Manor Estate resides on hallowed ground.

It belonged to an ancient Indian tribe

that believed in magic.

They believed in the spirit gods,

that they used magic to rule the heavens and the earth.

That magic could turn life into death

as easily as it could turn day into night.

Oh, shit.

[group chattering]

The Indians also believed

that every soul is a light

and that light will only continue to burn

as long as you believed in the power of magic

for belief in magic is a belief in the sanctity of life.

But if you don't believe in magic and you lose faith,

well, it's only a matter of time before the light

in your soul begins to burn up.

[applause and cheering]

That's my boy, I know him, I know him.

Get over here, man.

That was as cool as football.

[Chase] Thank you.

Dude, bro, great job.

Thank you.

Great job.

Now it time to get some pussy.

[Chase laughing]

[Becky] Okay, Chase, we get it.

[Adrianna] All right, Magic Man, lights back on please.

[Eddie] Watch out guys, what was that?

[Becky] Oh my God, there's something outside.

[Kayla] Dude, what the fuck?

Did you see that?

[Eddie] Yeah, what was that?

[Adrianna] Chase, this isn't like,

this isn't cool anymore dude, like seriously.

[Kayla] Yeah, Chase come on.

[Eddie] Kinda scared.

[Chase] I didn't do that.

Chase, like that was really not funny.

Yeah, not cool.

Javon, that wasn't me.

I didn't turn them off.

[Javon] Whatever man, you're tripping.

Wow, will you look at this?

What?

Well, according to this map,

not only was the manor built on Indian property,

but right on top of an Indian burial ground.

So what?

So what?

You don't find that the least bit odd?

That out of all the property

that they could have built this manor on,

they built it smack on top of a graveyard.

Okay, that's creepy.

That's disrespectful is what that is.

They did it on purpose.

What?

Why would they do that?

To show the Indians that they're no longer wanted here.

That they no longer matter.

Damn straight.

Eddie.

What?

It's the truth ain't it?

It's just like football.

You don't wanna just win, you wanna destroy them.

You wanna embarrass them.

That way they never want a rematch.

And this is why we broke up.

It's the law of the jungle.

Kill or be killed.

God, you're such an asshole.

What?

Yeah, I wouldn't say you're like a full on asshole

but you're kind of an asshole.

Yeah, you are, you are.

What'd I do?

I'm not the one who turned the lights off.

Oh, whoa, yo, check this out.

Hey, Javon.

Yo.

Yo.

Yo, guys, look at this, this is dope as hell.

Javon, we really shouldn't be in this room.

Yeah, now I know why.

Yo, guys come in here.

Look at this.

Wow, this room is incredible.

[Eddie] Man, this shit is tight.

[Chase] Everyone, we really need to get outta here.

This room is off limits.

Guys, take a look at this ring.

[Becky] So unbelievable.

Such a rich history this culture has.

Yeah and this is all that's left of it.

Listen to this.

Apparently that ring belonged to an Indian princess

named Aiyana.

Who gave it to her?

Well, according to this, a white man

named Samuel Cook.

He was a union soldier and he wanted to marry Aiyana.

That's really romantic.

Not everybody thought so.

Her father, Chief Dohate,

he forbade the union saying that the marriage

would bring great shame to his people.

[Adrianna] Aiyana married him anyways?

She did.

And her father Chief Dohate

in return declared war on the locals.

War on the locals, what does that really even mean?

Well, he cut off Cook's head

and then he scalped several other soldiers

and then killed his own daughter.

Cut off her hand and claimed the ring as his own.

[Adrianna] That's horrible.

It doesn't end there either.

A lot more of the tribe was killed after that

by the white men in retaliation,

they had overwhelming firepower.

What was that?

Did you see that?

Something just moved outside the window.

Ooh, someones scared.

Relax, Kayla, there's nobody out there.

Anyway, Chief Dohate was captured

and brought before a council of union soldiers.

He was charged with the incitement

of many people in mass murder.

He was hung right here on this very site.

With the noose fitted around his neck,

he muttered some words in an ancient dialect

that apparently cast an eternal curse on that ring

and all of those who inhabit this sacred land.

You don't actually believe

this ring is a curse though, do you?

Well, he was hung on this very spot

and according to legend his ghost

and the ghosts of all the slaughtered

still haunt these very woods.

It's true.

[Adrianna] What's true?

It's true.

Sometimes if you're very quiet,

you can hear the noises of the woods penetrate the night.

It's probably just the wind

but sometimes it really sounds like an Indian drum beat.

Soft and low.

It's kind of creepy.

Chief Dohate on the warpath.

All right.

Let's just, let's take a break from the stories right now.

How about we have some pizza, right?

Let's have some pizza.

Yeah, yeah.

Yeah.

Let's do that, all right.

[Addie] Fucking hell, what the fuck?

[upbeat music]

Chase, are you checking me out?

[all laughing]

[Chase] What?

No, no way.

It's okay, it happens all the time.

[girls cheering]

All right guys, I think I'm gonna go check on Eddie

and make sure he didn't set the forest on fire?

You want me to go with you?

That's okay.

I think you should stay here and work on your game.

You know what I mean.

I think I'm gonna make sure Adrianna doesn't get lost.

Bye boys.

See ya.

Did you see that?

Adrianna?

See me make a total ass of myself?

You totally did not pick up on the clues, man.

She's into you.

[Chase] Really?

Are you both clueless like, like that clueless?

Adrianna just likes taunting you guys.

You don't know anything, Becky.

Oh really?

Take a look around.

Where are the other girls right now?

They're both with Eddie.

It doesn't take a genius to pick up on the,

what did you just call them, Javon?

Clues?

♪ Come on baby light my fire ♪

♪ Come on baby light my fire ♪

♪ Come on baby light my fire ♪

♪ Come on baby light my fire ♪

Oh wait, wrong song.

♪ Come on baby light my ♪

♪ Adrianna light my fire ♪

Oh, good one, park boy.

♪ Adrianna ♪

You really wanna light my fire.

Oh really, is that your thing?

Yeah.

Yeah?

You look beautiful tonight.

Thank you.

As always.

Okay, all right, buddy, easy.

Why?

You're drunk.

No, I'm just having fun.

Yeah?

You're always having fun.

That's the life.

I know.

[suspenseful music]

Come on, baby, it's almost Christmas.

Why don't you come sit on Santa's lap?

Come on, get off of me.

Look, I built this beautiful romantic fire just for you.

Oh yeah?

Yeah.

I also got this sweet peyote right here.

Peyote?

Yeah, babe, Indian ganja.

Did you hear that?

Hear what?

Either this Peyote is talking to me

or this place is really haunted.

Here, take a hit.

All right.

Gotta try, baby.

Breathe it in.

[Adrianna coughing]

We gotta honor this land

and break the Indian chief's curse.

Oh yeah, and how do we do that?

We have to show Chief Dohate

that no matter how hard you try,

you can't stop real love.

Love, Eddie?

Did you just say love?

Yeah, baby, love.

Yeah?

The Dohate's of the world can keep those stupid rings.

If that ring was here right now

I would take it and shove it straight up

his Indian ass

because there's nobody that can tell me who I can't love.

Adrianna, I missed you so much.

Yeah, Eddie, that ship has sailed.

Is this because of spring break?

Are you really still mad about that?

It was just some random hookup, it meant nothing.

Yeah, but it did to me, you meathead?

It was Cancun, babe.

Come on, that's practically another country.

Okay, so then how about that skank, Sheree,

from Hooters, you know, a little closer to home?

What?

Yeah, you didn't think I knew about that one,

now did you?

Adrianna, we both know that you

are the only one that I care about.

You know, Eddie, the truth is

you only care about yourself and you always have.

You had your chance and you blew it.

[indistinct]

And that speech about love, real touching.

What a bitch.

Hey, Eddie, you okay?

Yeah, your friend can be a real bitch sometimes though.

Adrianna's okay.

She just doesn't know how to handle a real man, but I do.

Oh yeah?

Fucking unbelievable.

Adrianna!

To me, myself and I.

[suspenseful music]

Hello?

Babe, listen, I'm really sorry.

I'm gonna make this up to you.

Going after good girls now, huh?

Listen, she came onto me.

Oh yeah?

You know you're the only girl I want.

Poor guy, Eddie, messing up every chance he gets, right?

You're really gonna leave me just like this?

You've had one too many chances.

Wait, you're just gonna keep the ring?

Eddie, something is seriously going on here.

What are you talking about?

I have taken this ring off my hand multiple times

and it just keeps ending up right back in the same spot.

That's impossible.

No, I am serious.

Something is seriously going on here.

Fine.

Let's find out, let's test it.

[upbeat music]

Yo, let's go to that bonfire

and smoke some of that Peyote.

Nah, you guys go ahead.

What?

I'm gonna just work on my game over here

for a little while.

Get your ass outside when you're done?

In a little bit.

Did you hear anything I just said?

Yeah, I heard everything you just said.

I'm gonna work on my game right now.

This, this ain't the game you should be working on.

Very funny.

Why do I even try so hard with him?

Let's go, Becky.

See, nothing.

I'm gonna to take this ring back to the study.

These stories are just going straight to your head.

Where is everybody?

Maybe they went off exploring the property.

This place is huge after all.

Yeah, we have several acres.

Oh, they might be at the tennis courts around back.

Wait, wait, hold the fuck up.

You got a bowling alley and tennis courts?

Yeah, I'll show you.

They probably headed over there.

Are you coming?

I'll meet you guys.

Excuse me?

Hello?

Can I help you?

I'm sorry, I didn't mean to disturb you.

I didn't know there was anybody here.

Okay, well, it's my job to be here.

Oh, okay, I'm sorry.

May I ask who you are?

May I ask who you are

and what exactly are you doing in my room

and on this property?

Well, like I said, I, I didn't know.

there was anybody here and I'm a friend of Chase's.

Oh yeah, okay.

Well, Chase is not allowed to have guests.

Oh.

Really, I didn't know that, I'm sorry.

Yes.

So, earlier today I saw all of you arrive.

And I'll have, you know, the Larson's hired me

to be the new groundskeeper.

Oh, okay.

What exactly are you doing with this?

Are you doing some type of research on the property?

I'm just reading about it, that's all.

Well, you need to know that this home

was built on sacred tribal burial grounds.

Well, I did read something about that,

but where exactly was the burial ground?

Right here!

You're standing on it.

They built right on top of it?

Yes, that is right.

Of course they did.

For many years, this family has harmed and humiliated

the heritage of the native Americans that belong here.

And one day they're going to pay!

What is that?

What exactly is that, what did you do?

Who's out there?

We didn't do anything, I don't know

We didn't do anything, I don't know.

[siren sounding]

Good evening.

Is there something I can help you with, Officer?

Well, the Larson's asked me to come here

and check on Chase.

Is he here?

Well, he probably is around here somewhere.

I can, I can go look for him.

By the way, Mr. Greene, the new grounds keeper.

Oh, there's a new grounds keeper?

Oh yeah.

I didn't realize they had anybody since Mr. Jenkins.

Oh yeah.

I think he's at the tennis courts, I can get him.

No that's okay, thanks anyway.

I can see Mr. Greene has everything under control here.

You guys have a good night.

Yeah, I do.

I'm gonna get going too, yeah.

You kid's behave.

Yeah, okay, we will, we will.

[car engine revving]

Oh, wow.

Put this back.

Oh, no way!

I always wanted to try one of these on.

Oh goodness, I need a weapon.

Oh, look at this.

Eddie's on a war path.

[Eddie yelling Indian chants]

Oh, gosh.

What's so special about this damn ring anyways?

I'm Chief Dohate and I curse this ring.

Anybody that touches it

and I'll cut your damn hand off.

Who was that?

Yo, Chase, was that you?

Yo, Chase.

Man, where is everybody?

[owls hooting]

Dude, this place creeps me the fuck out, bro.

I told you, you can hear the crying

out in the woods sometimes.

[Javon] Dude, cut it out.

[Chase] I'm trying to get the lights back.

Javon, are you okay?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Let's get the fuck out of here, man.

[fire crackling]

Hey dudes!

Get your asses over here.

This peyote's not gonna smoke itself.

Yo, can I please have some of that?

Of course, bro.

Yo, this place is freaking me out.

Eddie, where are Adrianna and Kayla?

We thought they were with you.

They were with me earlier.

You know what I mean?

Such a gentlemen.

Hey, have you guys been Kayla?

I can't find her anywhere.

No.

I didn't think you'd be wanting to see her for a while.

Okay, asshole.

She's drunk and have you actually [indistinct] her.

Maybe she's with Becky somewhere.

No, she's not with me,

but you know, I gotta go decompress, so

I'll look for her while I'm gone.

Okay.

Ooh, beer, beer?

Yes.

Yes.

Gotcha.

You don't need to worry about me.

Yes, leave this here.

Do you think she went to the tennis court?

I truthfully don't know.

When did you see her last?

I mean, it's been a while.

[Chase] When we were in the bowling alley.

I haven't seen her since she was with me.

[Javon whistling]

[suspenseful music]

[Javon whistling]

[Damon] You never know when the devil can come calling.

[Damon laughing]

[Javon choking]

Javon.

Where the hell are you?

So Chase, what's your favorite type of magic?

Well, my favorite type is card magic.

But specialty is making things appear and disappear.

How did you do that?

Let's try something a little bit harder.

Okay.

So, now you can see

we've got a lot of different options, right?

A lot of different options.

Uh, huh?

So, I'm gonna have you pick out two instead of one.

I'm gonna have you pick out two.

Okay.

All I want you to do is just hold up one finger.

[Adrianna] Okay.

You can just drop it down on any card.

[Adrianna] Sure.

Got it, okay.

Take that one and take the one next to it too.

[Adrianna] Okay, do you wanna see it?

Sure, which ones do you have?

So, four of diamonds and 7 of clubs.

Four diamonds and a seven of clubs.

Now these two cards, could I use your sleeve?

Sure.

Okay, like that, perfect.

I'm gonna take these two,

and put them right inside there.

[Adrianna] Okay.

Okay, now with your other hand,

can you take out one and leave the other one inside?

Let's see which one you got?

[Adrianna] Four of diamonds.

Four of diamonds.

So what was the other one?

[Adrianna] Seven of clubs.

Seven of clubs.

Watch the four diamonds.

One, two, three.

Looks like the seven of clubs.

What?

Did you just switch those?

Check inside.

[Adrianna] Okay, that's insane.

Seriously.

But that's not my specialty.

[Adrianna] Okay?

I said that my specialty

was making things appear and disappear.

Watch this seven of clubs, it just disappears.

Like that.

Seven to clubs is gone.

Oh my God.

Not just the seven of clubs.

Also, the entire deck has disappeared.

All right, that was seriously amazing.

I don't understand how you did any of that.

Really crazy.

Remember, if you make a card,

like the seven of clubs disappear,

you've always got to make it reappear, right?

Right?

Check back in your sleeve.

I don't even know what to say.

Okay, now you gotta spill all the beans

and tell me exactly how you did that.

I can't tell you.

You have to.

Wow, okay then.

That was amazing.

I don't know how you did any of that stuff.

Seriously, it's crazy.

Hey, you guys, did Javon come in yet?

No, we haven't seen him.

Weird, he wasn't outside.

That is weird.

Okay, magic man.

Enough with the tricks.

What are you talking about?

Making things disappear and reappear.

You really had me freaked out at first.

No matter how many times I take off this ring,

it just magically keeps ending up back on my hand.

Adrianna, I swear I didn't do that.

Right.

I don't even know how to do something like that.

You're good, I just watched it.

It's the ring, it's chosen you.

What the hell are you talking about, Becky?

Well, according to ancient legend,

if the ring ever wound up back with the white men

it would find its way back through her native bloodstream.

Okay, all of that, that you're reading,

it's just Hocus Pocus bullshit.

None of that's even true.

Also, I'm only part Native American.

It just has to be in your bloodstream.

When you put the ring on you activated it.

Okay, enough with this damn book already, seriously.

Adrianna's right.

We're getting ahead of ourselves.

Let's just try and find Javon and Kayla.

Yeah, that sounds like a plan to me.

[Becky] Okay, Chase.

I didn't turn them off.

[suspenseful music]

Kayla?

[Adrianna screaming]

Get it off me!

Just get it off!

[Adrianna screaming]

Hey, listen.

I'm sure there's an explanation for all of this.

Oh, like what Eddie?

Where the hell is Kayla and Javon?

I don't know.

They're probably out messing around in the woods.

You know Kayla.

Okay, so what's your explanation for this damn ring

which I can't even get off my finger now.

All right, everyone, let's just calm down.

We'll figure this out together.

You know, you seem a little too calm

if you ask me, Chase.

What are you talking about, Eddie?

What, you think you can scare Adrianna

with all your magic bullshit?

So you can just be the hero that saves her?

You're getting out of line here.

Am I?

Or do I have it all right?

What are you doing, man?

Eddie, just please calm down.

No, I won't calm down.

If you do anything else to scare her,

I swear to God.

Okay, Eddie, just stop it.

This is not helping anybody.

I warned you.

All right, you guys look,

I don't know about you,

but I really could just use a drink right now

just to calm my nerves down.

Come on, babe.

Let's go back by the fire back.

I'm sure Javon and Kayla are back by now.

[sharp horror music]

Chief Dohate cut off his own daughter's hand.

What a royal asshole

Hello?

Oh God.

Becky?

Jesus Christ, Chase, you scared me after that.

Sorry, I didn't wanna disturb you.

I just wanted to make sure you had a towel.

Oh, okay, thanks.

Hey, Chase.

[Chase] Yeah?

Do you believe in ghosts?

Why would you ask that?

Well, you believe in magic.

I mean like what's the difference really?

Besides, I think the curse of chief Dohate

does haunt these woods.

I don't think so.

But what about what you said about,

you know, before, about hearing the drum beats?

I was just messing around.

I think that this book has started...

Hey wait, I wasn't finished.

Did you know that in the next county over,

at the Silver Lake Casino,

the descendants of Aiyana and Dohate's tribe

live and work there?

Yeah?

Well, they can't be very happy with you guys, can they?

In their mind, it's the white bred

Larson family squatting on their land.

Whoa.

And what about that ring too?

Does that actually belong to you guys?

Or did you take that too?

Becky, take it easy.

My family's totally cool with that casino.

They make a lot of money off of the guests

that stay at Liberty Manor.

As for the ring, I don't know.

My dad's really protective of it.

He never takes it outta the case.

It's like an antique.

This is my home you're talking about.

Sorry.

I mean, there are some Indians

that try to claim this land as their own

but my family owns this property fair and square.

To the richest go the spoils I guess.

Besides, even if there was a curse

it worked out in your favor.

You know, sometimes I think

maybe there really is a curse.

Anyways, I think we're both getting a little freaked out

by these stories, so...

You're probably right.

We should just relax, it is winter break.

You're right.

I'm probably just, you know, give me 30 minutes.

I just need to detox from my, my chemistry final.

All right, take your time.

Thanks.

Look, I know you think I'm crazy right now,

but something is really going on here.

Fuck that guy.

I don't think Chase had anything to do with this.

How do you explain it?

I don't know, dude.

How does this ring just keep getting on my hand.

I took this ring off and I put it back in the study

and it just keeps ending up back on my hand

over and over and over again.

I know and I'm telling you

Chase has to be up to this.

There's something else going on here.

He's the only one that knows magic.

This has to be magic.

This is not magic.

Magic, doesn't work that way.

Then how does it work?

How do you explain this?

I don't know how to explain this.

This whole place, this whole house,

the story, the burial ground,

everything that's happening to us, around us.

None of it makes sense.

No, it doesn't.

I just wanna go, dude, I just wanna go.

[mysterious music]

[Becky screaming]

[water splashing]

[Damon] Stop struggling.

[Becky screaming]

This water is now your hell.

Do you hear that?

Hear what?

Shh, listen.

What is that?

Eddie, what's going on?

What the hell?

Oh my God.

Stay back!

Don't make me use it!

Stay back!

What's happening?

Oh God, Becky!

Becky?

Oh my God!

Oh my God!

[Adrianna] Eddie, look behind you!

Eddie!

Eddie!

Eddie, oh my God!

Oh my God!

[Chase] Adrianna!

Stop it, just stop!

[Damon] Get back here!

Not so fast.

[Eddie choking]

[both screaming]

No!

[Chase choking]

[Damon] Don't fight me.

[Adrianna breathing heavily]

She has the ring.

What are you doing?

[Adrianna screaming]

Get off me, please.

Please, please!

[Adrianna screaming]

[Adrianna muffled screaming]

Relax and I won't hurt you.

I don't wanna hurt you.

[Adrianna breathing heavily]

Just do as you're told.

Get the fuck off of me!

Relax!

My father has been expecting you.

I'll take her from here.

Okay.

Have a seat.

Thank you for coming, Adrianna.

I don't think I had much of a choice.

Is that for me?

What?

Let me see it, please.

See what?

My ring you are wearing.

It won't come off, I've tried.

It will now, try.

Many of my people have died for this ring.

Many of mine too.

Thanks to you, I'm guessing.

Collateral damage, I'm afraid

Your friends desecrated hallowed ground.

Our forefathers tilled the soil,

fed our hungry and buried our slaughtered,

and what they call deep irony and great disrespect.

Liberty Manor Estate.

The Larson family owned that land.

Bullshit!

This land was taken from my people, illegally.

For more than 200 years, we've been regulated to this.

This God-forsaken casino.

A government handout.

Do you have any idea what this does

to the collective psyche of a nation?

A once proud nation of warriors,

leaders, and heroes?

I'm sorry about what happened.

Oh, you're sorry?

Isn't that rich?

Everybody's sorry.

They, they take my land.

They take my heritage.

You know what we get in return?

What?

The jungle room, a guttered casino,

a lot of hollow apologies.

This ring represents all that has gone wrong

these last 200 years.

As Chief Tocho, I owe my people

the chance to honor their dead the proper way.

I'm sorry for what happened to your people but I...

Our people.

Excuse me?

You see, the ring chose you.

The ring brought you to me.

The only way to break that curse is with true native blood.

You do know somewhat about your heritage, don't you?

I was adopted.

Well, the one thing you should know, child,

man does not own the land

any more than an Eagle owns the sky.

The land is a hollowed ground.

And while not owned, as the white man defines it.

It will again be occupied by my tribe.

How do you plan on doing that?

More bloodshed, more killings?

I hope not.

The only thing that stopped us until now has been this ring.

For generations it's haunted my people.

What are you gonna do with it?

This rings domain belongs to no man.

I don't understand.

Bury the ring, bury the curse.

This ring will no longer reign supreme,

but be given back to the Earth.

What are you gonna do with me?

Kill me?

No, of course not.

Curse of the ring is broken, you're to thank for that.

It's time we write a new chapter.

No more bloodshed, no more death.

Unless of course you and Javon care to make trouble.

Javon, he's alive?

The ring carefully chooses

who it needs to pay it's debts.

Didn't want you or Javon.

Now with the ring no longer in our possession,

the tragic events from last night

have no ties to me or my people.

I was quite careful about that.

You will take this.

I don't want your hush money.

Let me remind you there are four dead bodies

at a party that you were at.

The only one missing is you.

And then there's this, the security footage.

I didn't do any of this.

What kind of fucking sick game are playing here?

Of course you didn't, sweetheart.

But how do you plan on explaining that to the police

that are currently questioning Javon?

Let me start again.

My guys will bring you back to the house.

You will come running through the woods

claiming you were tied up and beaten

and you just got free.

Damon, the man that was shot dead in front of you

will take the fall for all the events that occurred tonight.

Mr. Greene, the new grounds keeper

will collaborate the story

and take responsibility for shooting.

The footage of you will be destroyed.

And I will offer the Larson's an offer they can't refuse.

To sell their property that's filled with horrible memories.

[sinister music]

Help!

Help!

Please help.

Who are you?

What is this place?

Who are you?

What do you want from me?

[neck snapping]

[intense music]

What!

You were never gonna pay me my money.

It seems betrayal is not only a white man's trait.

[Damon laughing]

I want my money!

Listen carefully, Chief,

when you dance with the devil,

it's the devil that picks the tune.

Adios!

[soft horror music]

[women screaming]

Who am I?

I am the companion.

The black wind.

I am Damon.

[woman whimpering]

[woman screaming]

[upbeat music]

How are you?

So how have you been?

Where have you been?

I know, I'm sorry.

I think I just needed a little bit of time, you know?

It just got really hard there for awhile.

I get that, I, I definitely understand.

So, we should do something this weekend.

Not anything that has to do with any creepy masks

or weirdos or anything like that

but, I don't know, nothing, have fun.

That actually sounds like it could be nice,

but there's actually something

I gotta go take care of though first.

So, I think I'm gonna go head and do that,

but I'll be here this weekend for sure.

Okay, yeah, that sounds good.

[mysterious music]

So, here you are.

What took you so long to find me?

You bastard!

Your hand shakes 'cause you have doubt.

You ain't gonna pull that trigger.

Fuck you, I don't have any doubt.

You killed my friends.

Your friends were standing in my way.

And you'd kill me too if given the chance.

You know what, honey, if I wanted you dead,

we wouldn't be having this conversation right now, would we?

You liked killing them?

Well, that should make no difference

because killing comes easier for some people.

Like me.

It was never supposed to be like this,

you promised that you never would've done that.

It was never supposed to be like this.

The ring had to be secured

and your friends got in the way.

Stop saying that.

Fuck you, stop saying that!

I needed the ring

and I couldn't have gotten it without your help, Adrianna.

You will be compensated.

I'm not afraid of you, not anymore.

I don't want your blood money.

Adrianna, put the gun down.

The chief put a bounty on your head.

I kill you and bring him the mask

and I'll have all the money I'll ever need.

You really think the chief is gonna let you live?

First the ring and now the mask.

An evil wind blows through him.

The curse is not buried in the sand, my child.

I'll take my chances.

Adrianna, the curse is alive.

An evil wind blows through you too.

The weakness of the enemy, creates our strength.

from the strength, we can thrive in life and in death.

After all, all those before us are not really dead,

their hearts can beat in the souls that they leave behind.

There is honor in death.

There is dignity in passing from this world into the next,

after all the tragedy of life is not death.

The tragedy of life is what we let die inside of us

while we live.
