MAN: Power is down.

Had contractors in to rewire the place,

but they took off like a shot one day

right in the middle of the job.

Ghost got to 'em, probably.

Well, I suppose you come with the place, Mr. Spencer.

I'm like part of the furniture.

Yeah, well, we'll be redecorating.

Now go get me some damn lights.

Mr. Weintroff,

Carl Spencer's been working here for almost 20 years.

Mr. Ogden, the owner of the property,

specifically stipulated--

Excuse me.

I stipulate.

Customer's always right.

Where the hell is Ogden anyway?

I'm not sure he got my message.

Yeah? Well, call him again.

Wake him up.

Well?

I'll just try him again on my car phone.

Oh, goody.

GHOSTLY VOICE: Gefford.

[GHOSTLY WHISPERING]

Gefford.

[WIND WHISTLING]

What the hell?

[SCREAMING]

[♪]

NARRATOR: He was brought across in 1228.

Preyed on humans for their blood.

Now he wants to be mortal again...

to repay society for his sins...

to emerge from his world of darkness...

from his endless forever night.

[GROWLS]

[CHATTERING]

[EXHALES]

SPENCER: Hey, it's not the house that's supposed to be haunted.

It's the people that go in it.

Uh, that's the legend, anyway.

I've heard stories about this house.

Say it's a spiritual channel of some kind.

A portal into the afterlife.

A porthole somewhere.

Never seen anything like a ghost in there,

but I got a clear conscience.

No spook bugging me.

I-- I think, anyway.

You sure you three were the only ones in the house

when Weintroff fell?

That's for sure.

I went to get the juice going,

you know, light the place up...

And you left him with Miss King?

Right here.

Mr. Spencer, you understand

we'll have to take you in for questioning.

With a lawyer, Mr. Spencer.

Oh, give me the lie detector if you want. Heh.

So I'm guessing you're not much of a believer in ghosts.

I'll take the Fifth on that one.

KING: I was on my phone in the car,

and I heard him scream.

It was awful.

And I looked up and saw him on the...

[SOBS]

He fell out, onto the fence.

Did you see anyone with him?

KING: It was dark,

but I thought I saw someone.

A silhouette in the window.

I looked again...

no one was there.

Man or woman?

It was so dark I couldn't say.

Oh, God.

I should call Mr. Ogden.

That's the property owner? We'll handle it.

This officer will take you to the precinct for your statement.

Why?

Please, I-I just wanna go home.

I didn't do anything.

And you should call your lawyer.

[SNIFFLES]

[INDISTINCT CHATTER OVER RADIO]

I wanna have a look at that window.

All right.

I'll check around down here

and, uh, hey, Nick,

if I see anything weird, I'll scream.

[DOOR OPENS]

[♪]

GHOSTLY VOICE: Nicholas.

Well, it looks pretty cut-and-dried to me.

Railing broke.

In highly technical terms,

he fell, he died.

You know, if I didn't know better,

I would say that this place frightens you.

Yeah. Just keep it between us, okay?

Dr. Lambert, I need you to sign the crime-scene duty roster.

Sure.

[CHUCKLING] Oh, that takes me back.

Natasha.

My grandmother used to call me Natasha.

Excuse me, doctor?

Your name, uh--

uh...never mind.

It's all right.

Thanks.

[♪]

[GHOSTLY GROANING]

GHOSTLY VOICE: Nicholas.

GHOSTLY VOICE 2: Nicholas.

[CHATTERING]

Yeah.

MAN: Yeah, pack up those lights, that's all we need now.

Officer...

did you see a young woman standing by my car?

Just now?

Uh-uh.

Well, let's go check with him.

Covered the downstairs. No trace of anyone.

You?

No luck. [SIGHS]

Let's go talk to the landlord.

Nick, there was a little girl sitting right here.

Didn't you see her?

No. No, I didn't see anything.

You okay?

Yeah. Forget it.

[CAR DOOR OPENS]

MAN: Of course it's haunted.

Shirelle can attest,

can't you, sweetheart?

She's had encounters there.

In the dead of night.

TRACY: With ghosts?

Ghosts are merely people without bodies, detective,

very much like us.

They share our same need

for answers to burning questions.

Many seek justice where none was rendered in life.

Kessel House

is a reverse medium, if you will,

through which the dead

come to the living for closure.

I've been an aficionado of the occult

and the paranormal all my life,

and I've never come across anything quite like it.

How well did you know Gefford Weintroff?

Well enough not to like him, frankly.

He and his partner were interested in the house

and the adjoining property.

Are you insinuating a motive, detective?

No, we think his death was an accident,

but now that you've brought it up...

MAN: I was home all evening...

exercising.

Shirelle has been helping me,

doubling as my personal trainer.

One of the things about being a ghost

I most look forward to

is a less cumbersome package. Heh-heh!

And as for Gefford Weintroff,

I warned him that the house was in a dangerous state.

I insisted that he sign a waiver

before he inspected the property.

And his partner?

MAN: Gerry Scalley?

Also most unpleasant.

Toured the property last weekend.

Did Weintroff believe that Kessel House was haunted?

[CLOCK CHIMING]

Well, I know he didn't yesterday.

Subject male, Caucasian, 43.

Cause of death: massive internal trauma

result of impalement.

Anomalous bruising noted on the upper thorax.

[RUSSIAN ACCENT] This is such an awful place, Natasha.

Yeah, you're telling me.

[♪]

Natasha, why you don't come see me in hospital?

Why you don't come see?

Dasvidanya.

REESE: I don't believe in ghosts,

but I know foul play when I see it.

Look, Nick, the guy went over the railing

with sufficient force to pull it down.

Yeah, that's right.

Well, that tells me he was pushed.

We're not focusing here, people.

Don't know how we missed that one.

Real estate agent says she left Weintroff

to use her car phone.

Easy enough to verify.

And did you?

What about you?

Well, I did.

The cellular company said

no call was made from that car all night,

no incoming either.

Adios alibi.

The caretaker says he left victim

with the real-estate lady, who says she left victim alone.

Well, I say someone pushed the guy.

That's two prime suspects.

They're going to walk 'cause I don't have anything.

Please,

tell me you found something.

Well, I did finish the prelim, and I'm going to say that--

Actually, I think that I'm going to say that it was--

Accidental?

You okay?

Yeah, yeah, never better.

Maybe just a little over caffeinated.

REESE: Something you people should know about me.

I hate when people get away with murder on my watch.

Now, we're going to take a fresh look at this thing

with the idea firmly in mind that this was a homicide.

Okay?

Sleep on it.

[♪]

[ECHOING] Nicholas.

You said we'd be together forever.

Alyssa.

Your wife.

[♪]

Say you remember.

Please.

Say you remember how I loved you.

MAN: Do you Alyssa Von Liz,

promise to love, cherish, honor,

and obey this man who would be your husband?

I do.

In sickness and health, forever and without condition?

Without condition.

Do you, sir, also take this woman as your wife

in the eyes of God and church to cherish in life forever

and unconditionally?

What say you, Nicholas De Brabant?

I do.

If any man object whatsoever to this union

let him come forward to speak, or forever hold his peace.

With the authority vested in me by God,

I pronounce you man and wife.

What he has put together let know man put asunder.

[♪]

Come on.

Let's go.

My sled's stuck.

CHILD: Come on.

Hurry up.

My sweater's stuck.

Tracy, come help me.

Susan.

Tracy--

[TRAIN APPROACHING]

Tracy, help me!

SUSAN [ECHOING]: Tracy, help me.

[♪]

Tracy, help me.

MAN: So you're here about Weintroff.

Tough break for him, huh?

We're investigating his death as a homicide.

We need to see your records.

Murder?

Well, don't look at me.

I was on the red-eye from Vancouver

last night when it happened.

Pardon for saying so, Mr. Scalley,

but you don't seem that affected about your partner's death.

Sure I am. It's double the work for me now he's gone.

Did Weintroff have any enemies?

Better to ask if he had any friends,

none of either, I'd say.

Tell us about Kessel House.

The place is a dump.

Weintroff's idea.

He had plans for it.

So I took a look at it.

What plans?

Never got around to telling me.

We weren't exactly seeing eye-to-eye

in the last few months.

Anything strange happened since you visited

Kessel House last weekend?

Well, let's see.

My partner was killed in a freak accident.

Does that count? I know what you're getting at.

Everyone goes to Kessel House looking for ghosts.

But you don't see ghosts, unless you believe in ghosts.

And I don't, period.

We're going to have to ask you to stay around

for a while until the situation clears.

Sorry, tomorrow I'm in Calgary.

Well, then you'll have to change your plans, won't you?

Military.

I'm not sure which branch.

Oh, and your hunch was right.

That is Weintroff's blood on it.

I'm going to run it past some military people I know,

try to trace it.

For two guys that didn't see eye-to-eye,

Weintroff and Scalley sure go back a long way.

How about you?

Well, only that Weintroff's been sued

by almost everyone in Ontario.

Sorry, man, didn't sleep last night.

What's up?

Nick, what if I told you I saw a ghost at Kessel House?

The little girl and the car.

I thought you'd laugh.

When I was little, a friend of mine

was killed by a train.

I was there. I saw it.

And I blame myself.

Last night at Kessel House that was her,

and I saw her again outside my window at home.

[♪] It was her.

It was Susan Feldman.

Natasha, why?

Look, I--

I know you're just a figment of my imagination,

but please don't sneak up on me like that.

I'm sorry, Tashka.

Nana,

you've been dead for years.

How can you be here?

I don't know.

I saw you last night,

so I followed

to ask why you don't come see me in the hospital.

KNIGHT: Who are you talking to, Nat?

Are you okay?

LAMBERT: It could be hysteria,

hypnotic suggestion, maybe even hallucinogenic agent.

Haven't slept, going on two days.

That that could be it.

[LAUGHS] Or...

I could just be losing my mind.

You're not crazy.

It's happening to me too. All right.

All right. I saw someone too.

A woman in the house.

Make you feel better?

But I'm not prepared to think that a ghost killed Weintroff.

Okay.

This conversation has officially gone over the deep end.

TRACY: Nat, when your grandmother came to see you, what did she want?

She wanted to know why I never went to see her

while she was dying.

And did you tell her?

No, no, I didn't, not the real reason.

She'll be back.

LACROIX: A ghost is a hallucination of some famous regret, no more.

Ghosts are mistakes that we've made.

They come not from beyond the pale,

but rise up from our gravest doubts about ourselves.

Each ill-considered thing that we have done

is a ghost that haunts us.

If we let it.

Are you happy?

My Lord Nicholas.

As I've ever been.

We'll be together forever.

Won't we.

For eternity.

[♪]

Do you remember when I promised we could be together forever?

I can give you eternal life.

Listen.

I am immortal.

As you will be.

My gift to you.

Alyssa...

do you trust me?

Of course, my lord.

With all my heart.

Then close your eyes...

and give yourself to me.

[GROWLS]

[ALYSSA MOANS]

LACROIX: Regret is for the foolish, the weak,

[OVER RADIO] the tormented.

Kill it before it bleeds you dry.

[TURNS RADIO OFF]

Sorry, Nick. That guy gets under my skin.

So, what do you think she wants?

Susan Feldman. What does she want?

I don't know. Why don't you ask her?

[CELL PHONE RINGS]

Knight.

Yeah, Detective Knight? Look, someone's tailing me.

They got it in for me like they had it in for Weintroff.

Someone you know?

Yeah, it's someone I know.

A dead someone.

[RUSTLING]

[WOMAN LAUGHING] No!

Something's not right.

Take the front. I'll go around back.

If anyone comes check their ID.

Susan?

Susan, is that you?

Susan?

Susan.

REESE: I don't buy it.

My preliminary report is gonna add to the confusion.

Heart attack. Massive, sudden and swift.

Too young for a massive coronary.

Checked his medical records?

There's nothing there.

There's no history of heart disease.

Murmur, cholesterol, tachycardia, you name it.

You know, with what's been happening lately

if someone were to suggest to me that he'd been scared to death

I might actually believe it.

Did he know who was following him?

It was a dead someone, he said.

Look, these guys have real flesh and blood enemies.

Stop chasing ghosts, will you?

I wish they'd stop chasing us.

Oh, yeah, Nick?

My friends in the service tell me

it's a U.S. Army-issue service star

of a type issued about 20 years ago.

My guess is that Weintroff grabbed it

from his assailant in a struggle.

This is interesting.

"Who's who" from the chamber of commerce listings.

Remember when I said Weintroff and Scalley

go back a long way in business?

They were fraternity brothers in college too.

Ghost had it in for both of them.

Calling in an old debt maybe.

LAMBERT: Subject, Gerard Scalley.

Enzyme tests confirm coronary thrombosis.

Anomalous contusion over the sternum

similar to that observed in subject G. Weintroff.

Grandma?

Nanna?

You here?

Right. I am completely out of my mind.

Ahh, G. Weintroff suggests commotio cordis,

a fatal blow to the chest,

though the instrument of death is unknown.

[SIGHS]

[SHIVERS]

This is such an awful place, Natasha.

You spend so much time here.

That nice boy, Nick, he likes you.

I can tell.

He seems like a very down-to-earth

young fellow.

Nanna, listen to me.

I'm sorry I never came to the hospital

but I have to tell you the truth.

I resented you.

Do you remember when I was a little girl

and you used to take care of me?

Yes, I remember.

I hit you.

I hurt you.

Now I know how wrong I was.

I'm sorry, Natasha.

Can you forgive me?

Yes, of course.

I'm sorry too.

I'm happy now.

I can rest.

Nanna, wait.

Please, you...

You have to tell me, where are you?

I'm sleeping, Natasha.

I'm sleeping

in a beautiful dream.

Nanna.

Nat.

What's wrong?

She was here.

My grandmother was here again

and when I told her why I never went to visit her

when she was dying, she apologized to me.

I've been waiting my whole life for her to apologize.

Maybe you should knock off for a while.

[SIGHS]

No, I'm... I'm okay. It's okay.

I've almost finished my write-up.

Yeah, well, if you're sure, um...

I found this outside of Kessel house.

It's got Weintroff's blood on it.

I was wondering if you could find a cut or a scratch

to match with it.

I'll double-check.

Nat.

You sure you're gonna be okay if,

you know, your grandmother comes back?

She won't be back.

Don't ask me how I know, I just know.

She's finished here. We made our peace.

[♪]

[PANTS]

Sleep, my love.

When you awake, we will be as one forever.

[PANTS]

Alyssa?

Alyssa.

Alyssa, it's time to wake.

Alyssa?

LACROIX: Something wrong, Nicholas?

Your love nest reeks of death.

I brought her across.

Life is a fire, Nicholas.

It can be rekindled from the tiniest ember

so long as it is not allowed to become too cold.

This fire is dead.

Oh, well, never mind.

It's a subtle art. Practice will make perfect.

It was your first attempt, after all.

Lacroix?

Help me, please.

I cannot, Nicholas.

I told you.

Don't take too much.

[♪]

Alyssa, can you hear me?

I want you to understand.

I did love you very much.

I wanted us to be together forever.

I'm so sorry.

Nicholas,

I know that what you say is true.

I love you still.

But I must tell you, because I love you

that you should not have come here.

You are in danger here.

You will die here tonight.

And because of what you have been and done,

you will not be with me...

ever.

VETTER: Captain, I found something.

Well, please don't say Weintroff and Scalley's ghost.

Yeah, I think so. Sorry.

Weintroff and Scalley were both Beta Kap Sig

22 years ago at McClinton University in Ohio.

And I found this.

List of unsolved homicides in Ohio.

Going back 25 years.

This one jumped out at me.

"Lieutenant Jean St. Claire.

"Army nurse stationed at Wayland Army Base

near the university. Body found 1974."

Raped and murdered.

No one was ever charged in her death.

Canvass teams questioned students around the area

of McClinton University.

Detective, you're still telling me what I don't wanna hear:

a ghost, back from the dead for revenge.

Tracy, there's no such thing as ghosts.

Captain!

[TRAIN WHISTLE BLOWING]

Thanks.

REESE: Detective?

What's wrong?

Tracy?

Captain...

over there.

Tell me what you see.

Cops.

What do you see?

Oh, my God.

What does she want?

Captain, what am I gonna do?

You are in grave danger, Nicholas.

Please forgive me for what I've done.

I do.

I forgive you.

I needed to know that you remembered me

and what we had together.

What we almost had.

Seeing you again gives me a great peace.

[HOUSE GROANS]

You must go now.

Others are coming.

Some among them bear you ill will,

souls you dispatched from this world

who cannot be appeased.

Go now.

Go quickly.

Please, come with me.

I cannot.

Be with me a while longer.

I cannot.

But I can help you.

I know what it is you seek...

why you came here.

The answer is here, Nicholas.

Come to me and see.

OGDEN: Of course it's haunted.

Shirelle can attest.

She's had encounters there.

In the dead of night.

Tracy, I'm taking you to ER.

I don't like this.

Susan?

What do you want?

Wait.

Where are you going?

The house, they're closing it.

I have to go back.

Tracy, what the hell is goin' on?

Detective, where are you going?

Kessel house. Tell Nick I'm there.

Captain, this just came in for Detective Vetter.

[YELPS]

[YELLS]

[HISSES]

[ELECTRICITY BUZZES]

They killed my mother.

Scalley and Weintroff.

She came to me here.

She told me they have to pay.

Why kill Ogden?

He lied to me.

He told me he'd protect the house.

But then I found out.

He wanted to tear it down too.

This is the only place I'll ever see my mother again.

I couldn't let that happen.

SUSAN: Tracy...

come play with me.

Tracy...

come with me.

Tracy...

come with me.

[SCREAMS]

I miss you,

Tracy.

[HORN HONKS]

Police. Freeze.

Halt.

Drop your weapon now.

Whoa. Watch where you're pointing that thing.

Hey, little Joe.

What the hell?

Jordan?

KNIGHT: Captain, you see something?

No. Nothing.

So is your case closed now?

Boo. [GASPS]

You mean my ghost?

[SCOFFS]

You know, you never actually told me who it was.

It was someone I loved...

and lost a long, long time ago.

Someone who needed to be remembered.

So, what happens to the house now?

The city will probably tear it down

and put up an apartment complex

like Weintroff and his partner originally intended.

Tell me, Nat, what do you make of all this?

What we saw?

You mean, what we think we saw?

I don't know, you know what bothers me?

Each of our ghosts told us the same thing,

things that we subconsciously wanted to hear.

Projections of our own desires,

our needs for closure.

Well, I'm not gonna go on record

saying that I saw a ghost.

But if someone were to ask me

if I'd had some kind of religious experience,

I think I'd have to take the fifth on that one.
