All language subtitles for Hillock Haunting (2024).en

Henry, ah, it's your Uncle Rich.

Man, I hate to be
the one to tell you,

but your father was found
dead in the barn this morning.

They said it was a heart attack.

Looks like that farm
is all yours, buddy.

He did have one wish
and that was that you

take care of his animals.

I'm gonna be in
London for a bit,

but if you need me, just call.

Take care, Henry.

I received a phone call when
we were out at the water.

You were having such a good
time, I didn't wanna tell you.

Your grandfather passed
away early this morning.

He had a heart attack.

They found him in the barn.

We're moving to the farm.
We're gonna take it over.

That's what he
would want us to do.

Take care of his animals.

And that's what we're gonna do.

Wow. Look at the size
of that painting.

He really did love donkeys.

That's probably
why he has so many.

Let's get going.

It is amazing how
this place is so huge.

It's a mess though.

I don't think grandpa
ever cleaned this place.

Probably not, but that's
gonna be our jobs.

Dad's gonna make us
clean every inch of it.

The apartment was a
lot easier to clean

because it was so small.

Yeah, but at least we
don't have to share

a bathroom with our dad anymore.

Yeah.

Okay. Let's go check
the other rooms.

Ah!

- What was that?
- It's just

the shower curtain.

We must have knocked
it over somehow.

- Oh, okay.
- We'll get it later.

All right.

Hey, small books.

Give me one.

Hey, let's take a
break from unpacking

and go find a pretty
spot to read these.

I know the perfect
place. Come on

Dad, you're right.

This is way better than
that little apartment.

There's so many things we can
do with a house this size.

That makes me happy.

That's all I ever
wanted for you girls

is just to have a nice home.

- What are you reading?
- That's grandpa's journal.

I found it in the
old chest over there.

Grandpa had a diary?

I guess you could
call it a diary.

Mm, he used to log
everything in here.

Yeah, but I was
wondering something.

Grandpa was 87 years old.

How did he take care of
all the animals by himself?

No, he didn't take care of
the animals all by himself.

There's a girl named Abby
that comes by and helps him.

I decided to keep her hired on.

Maybe she can tell us a little
bit more about the animals

and how things work around here.

She'll be here in a few days.

In the meantime, maybe we
should go check out the animals.

What do you think?
- That'd be great.

I'd love to go see them.

- Oh, my goodness.
- Oh, it's a pony.

Oh, you're so adorable.

What are their names?
Do we know their names?

I'm not sure what
their names are.

He's gotta have a list
or something around here.

Maybe we can ask Abby.

Maybe we can give
them new names.

I think that'd be a good idea.

What about this big guy?

We gotta give him
an awesome name.

Let's get 'em some more water.

I never thought they
would be so cute.

People never really show
how donkeys really are.

I can't believe grandpa
died where we're standing.

Kind of freaks me out.

How could he just
have a heart attack?

The animals probably watched
it happen. Those poor guys.

You're a good girl. Mm.

Whoa!

Come on now, girl.

It's gonna be us now.

I wonder how they feel
about two strangers

coming down to feed them.

They're probably
expecting grandpa.

I don't know if they
have emotions like us,

but if they do,
that's kind of sad.

Imagine how we would feel if Dad

just dropped dead
in front of us.

What would we do without him?

I guess Grandpa really
was like a father to them.

He took care of them,
he kept them safe.

They were probably even
closer to him than we were.

Let's face it, he was a loner.

We never really got to
spend much time with him.

And if we did then I'd probably
still be bawling my eyes out

like when Mom passed away.

I don't wanna talk
about Mom right now.

I've finally been able
to kind of block it out.

And now I just wanna
focus on making Dad happy.

You're right.

Let's just go catch up with
dad and finish unpacking.

What'd you two think
about the animals?

I think it's going
to be a long summer.

I did some counting.

We have 14 donkeys, one sheep,
two horses and two ponies.

But I want you
two to be careful.

Don't walk behind them,
don't stand behind them.

I don't want you to get kicked.

I was just out with the horses
and I almost got kicked.

So it's gonna take
them some time

to get used to us, I think.

Yeah, we'll be careful.

I'm gonna get started on
dinner. Y'all get cleaned up.

We're gonna hit the
sack early tonight

'cause I don't know about
you two, but I'm exhausted

from moving all those boxes.

Would it be okay if we did
some reading before bed?

Because we found old books that
we're excited about upstairs

and, you know, it's kind
of tough getting adjusted

into a new place, and I
think it would help us feel

a little more comfortable.

That'll be okay. I understand.

Whatever helps you two get rest

'cause we have a
long day tomorrow.

Pizza, it is.

Girls.

That's it with the boxes.

I got the rest of them.

Let's go grab some pizza.

- All right.
- Come on.

Everything okay?

Well, I was grabbing the books

and I thought I heard
something in the woods,

but I guess it was nothing.

Here's your book.

Thanks. I'm gonna go to bed now.

I'm kind of awake right now,

so I think I'm
gonna start reading.

Maybe it'll help me fall
asleep, but sleep good.

I don't need a service call.
I just have a quick question.

Can the water and
the shower come out

without me turning it on?

I know it sounds crazy, but I
woke up and the shower was on.

Hmm.

Okay.

Okay, well I'll check that out
and I'll give you a call back

if I have any other questions.

Thanks.

Hey, girls, did you sleep well?

- Mm-hmm.
- Yeah.

All right, the plan
for the day is you two

are gonna do the
barn in the front.

Clean those stalls. I'm gonna
clean the stalls in the back.

I have the gravel guy coming
so I can repair the paddocks

from all the rain
that's been coming.

Why were you talking to the
plumber about the shower?

I called the plumber
because last night

I woke up and the shower was on.

I didn't wanna tell you girls

'cause I didn't wanna spook you.

And he thought I was crazy.

So I don't know what to tell ya.

Maybe grandpa was already
having weird things

happening to him.

Maybe that's why
he had the books.

Maybe he was doing research.

Okay, the book I was
reading last night

was about ghosts
and haunted houses.

Grandpa had books about
ghosts in the house?

And it mentioned something
called "poltergeist activity."

And it was talking about
lights turning on and off

and things being moved around.

Maybe the shower or
something like that.

You two are reading
ghost books before bed?

I'm gonna go grab
the books for you

so you can take a look at them.

I think that'd be a good idea.

You two get started
on the stalls.

What's that for?

Dad said this is what we
use to clean out the stalls.

He's gonna do the back
and we do the front.

Heather, are you
playing a trick on me?

You're not scaring
me. Cut it out.

Mr. Hillock?

I'm Abby.

Abby, ah, I wasn't expecting
you until the morning.

What you doing here so late?

I had the urge to come and
check on some of the animals

in case they were dead.

Can you please come
back in the morning?

I'll come back in the morning,

but I'm gonna say
goodbye to Pa first.

Dad!

Dad! Dad, will you open it!

That was Abby.

That was Abby?

Let's call it a night, girls.

She'll be back in the morning.

Hey, I meant to ask you, what
time is your morning feedings?

7:00 AM is morning feedings,

then I do cleaning, grooming,
fill up their waters

and repair the
stalls if necessary.

Look, I'm sorry I was a
little short in there.

It's just everything's a bit
overwhelming at the moment.

I'm just trying
to take it all in,

but I'm definitely
gonna need your help.

I'm gonna have the girls meet
up with you in the morning.

I have a few errands to run.

And be careful with that thing.

Don't worry.

I'll be careful.

So, what do you
think about Abby?

I don't know. She creeps me out.

I kind of get a
bad vibe from her.

Maybe she had something to
do with Grandpa's death.

They said he just
had a heart attack.

Why would Dad keep a
murderer hired on anyway?

Well, Dad wouldn't know
if she's a murderer.

All he was told was that
Grandpa had a heart attack.

Well, we better get used to her.

She'll be here tomorrow.

Let's just call it a night.

Dad!

I can't open it!

It won't, it won't open!

What was happening?

Dad!

Dad! Dad!

What is all the yelling about?

Someone was shaking
her doorknob around

and the doors were slamming
like crazy, and then look!

What is happening
on this property?

There's gotta be a
reason for all this.

Look, you two sleep
in my room tonight.

We're gonna figure this
out in the morning.

Good morning, Abby.

Where is your father?

Ah, he went to the Seed and
Feed to get some more grain.

Do you always carry that blade?

There's something strange
about this property

and this makes me feel safe.

Your grandfather chose
donkeys to keep him protected

while I chose something
a little more practical.

Safe from what?

Ghost?

More like the feeling
of always being watched,

goosebumps on your arms,

the hairs on the back of
your neck standing up,

and the cold, crushing
feeling of death all over you.

They want to do more
than just haunt you.

They wanna kill you.

Ghosts? I don't think so.

Come on, I'll show
you my farm routine.

I'm gonna show you girls
how many scoops of grain

to give them at feeding time.

You need to give these guys a
scoop of grain in the morning

and a scoop of grain at night.

Now let's go over
to the pony's stall.

Abby, I was thinking about

what you said at
the donkey house.

Who are they and
why are they here?

And why do they wanna kill us?

Ever since your grandfather
uncovered some things

on this property, things
have gotten strange,

and they just keep getting
worse and more dangerous.

If you ask me, I think
they were responsible

for his heart attack.
- You mentioned

my grandfather chose donkeys
for protection, but why?

Donkeys are spiritual animals.

They can see into
the spiritual realm.

When they would come,
the donkeys would bray.

You know, "heehaw."

Your grandfather believed
they had some sort

of spiritual
protection from demons.

They were in the
house last night.

They, they were banging on my
door and she couldn't open it.

It was completely shut, but
it was shaking like crazy.

I didn't know what
was happening.

I was so scared.

Then we were in the hallway

and they were slamming
doors all around us,

and suddenly they
crashed into this wall

and made this giant hole.

They're not happy.

They want you gone
like your grandfather.

So what are we supposed to do?

How do we get them to leave?

They're getting stronger.

There's no hope.

I've learned to live with it,

but I only work
here during the day.

You live here.

My work's done for the day.

I'll see you tomorrow.

We have to tell Dad.

This is more than just
a simple ghost story.

Maybe Dad will know what to do.

- Say it again.
- Maybe...

What the hell?

Now you're dead.

Where are the girls?

I don't know where they are,

but I finally got that rat

that's been getting
into the feed.

Good job, Abby.

I think I'll make a stew.

There you girls are.

Dad, Abby thinks it's a demon
that's been haunting us.

And we've been reading
Grandpa's diary.

These things have been
happening for a long time.

Abby said it started
when Grandpa found

some things on the property.

And it says right here that
Grandpa found a human skull.

Let me see that.

"Today was a dark day.

I was finishing the well

and I dug up a human skull.

Had an unusual tool.

I gave the tool to Abby."

The scythe. The thing she's
always carrying around.

That's the tool.

She says it brings her
protection from the ghost.

That's why it brings
her protection.

That's what killed the ghost.

She carries it around
because it's afraid of it.

That's the answer. We have
to get that away from Abby.

She doesn't live here, we do.

If we had that here, it
could buy us enough time

to figure out how to
get rid of this thing.

She'll kill us if we try
to get that from her.

She will never put it down.

You're right. That's
all that poor girl has.

But we're missing
the point here.

The ghost is afraid, so if
it's afraid of one thing,

it's gotta be afraid
of something else.

We just have to
find out what it is.

Abby said then it doesn't
just wanna hurt us.

He wants to kill us.

We cannot be scared.

There's one thing I know that
we never can give into fear.

We're not scared.

We just want it to leave.

Maybe there's something in
those books of Grandpa's

that can give us some advice
on how to get rid of it.

I heard you. You
said, "Help me."

But help you with what?

Why are you trying to hurt us?

Just leave us alone!

Is this what you're
trying to show me?

I have to show Dad.
This is a clue.

Dad, I was sitting
on the bench outside

and then I heard a voice
that said, "Help me."

So I followed it into the
woods and a tree came down

and almost hit me, I
jumped out of the way,

but then underneath another
big tree's roots, I found this.

Let me see this.

Mm-hmm.

"Mrs. Edwards vanishes
without a trace."

What does this have
to do with anything?

Well, that's not all.
Look at the paper.

Not only does it give us a
name, but there's a date.

Now that I have a name, I
can call the local police.

Maybe there's a cold case file,

but maybe they'll have more
information on Mrs. Edwards.

And hopefully they can
tie it into this property.

But as of right now, we
don't know if Miss Edwards

lived here or not.

Dad, you were in the military.

Don't you have any
friends, anyone you know

who can help us look
up government records

or find something under that
name we found in this address?

I might have a few
people that can help us.

I've been retired
for a few years now

and everyone I knew
retired with me.

You make your calls and
see what you can find out.

We're going to the library
to see what we can dig up

because you can't do this alone.

Hey stranger, where
have you been hiding?

As far away from
people as possible.

What do you need?

Apparently the lady
that my father bought

the house from went missing.

- Give me the name.
- All I have

is the name Edwards.
- Ah, do you have a social?

Look, I wouldn't ask for
help if it wasn't important.

Give me until tonight,

I'll have something for ya.

Scared, scared of you.

I'm not scared of you.

What's wrong?

I don't, I don't know what.

I don't know how it got there.
It was just looking at me.

It was there with me

and I could just feel it,
and they wanted to hurt me.

Oh my god, they
wanted to kill me.

Let's go tell Dad.

It always seems to
leave when he's around.

We can't tell Dad.

He's going through
a lot right now

and I don't want him to
know that we're scared.

Maybe you're right. Let's leave
all the lights on tonight.

That's just it.

It was turning the
lights on and off.

The lights can't do anything
to protect us from this.

Sleep in my room tonight.

Two of us together is
better than being alone.

Okay, thanks.

I found your phone number
in my father's journal

and your book in his library.

Your father did reach out to me

about some activity
he was having.

I gave him a list of things
that I thought would help him,

but we were both coming
up short on ideas.

It's crashing through walls.

It's turning lights on and off.

It's turning showers on.
- I've never experienced

or heard of this
powerful of an entity.

The last time we spoke,
I had him get rid

of some potential
trigger objects.

I never heard from him again.

That's because he recently
died of a heart attack.

We can explore the
trigger object prospect

again, look around for
any historic items.

This could be a book, clothing,
figurines, tools or jewelry.

I don't want to scare you,

but I feel that whatever this
is, it probably was the cause

of your father's heart attack.

Be careful, Henry.

At this point it sounds
like it is stronger

and could be dangerous
beyond a point

of just haunting the farm.

I'm going to give you the number

of someone in the
New England area

that can help you further.

I really appreciate that.

Abby, we need to talk to you.

This ghost is terrorizing us.

It keeps showing up out of
the blue and scaring us.

Our father doesn't know
what to do to stop it.

Can you help?

How do you expect me to help?

Well, what do you
do to keep it away?

You don't seem to be
dealing with it like we are.

It irritates me at times,
but I'm not scared.

Most of the time when I'm
working, it leaves me alone.

Has the ghost ever
showed up at your place?

Nothing ever bothers
me at my apartment.

Only here on the farm.

We found a clue that might help.

Have you ever heard
the name Mrs. Edwards?

Never heard of it.

Did you ever hear Grandpa
mention that name?

Like I said, I've
never heard of it.

What about the day
he found the skull?

You were there. You
can tell us about it.

Who said I was there?

In Grandpa's journal.
It said you were there.

I'll tell you.

He was digging a well.

I heard him scream,
so I ran over,

and there in the hole
was a crusty old skull.

Did you go with him
when he turned it in?

Or did the cops come
and take it from him?

No, he kept it.

What did he do with it?

I have no clue, but
he gave me this.

It was buried with it.

I'll think of some ways
I might be able to help.

I have a name for you.

It's Martha Edwards.

They filed a missing
persons report,

but there's not much
in the case file.

It's a cold case.

How is there nothing
in the case file?

The town of Grand Valley
referred the case to us.

The file contains the name
and address for Edwards

and their occupation,
selling grain and hay.

It does have another name
of Abby Wells listed.

- Abby?
- Because she's the one

who recorded her missing.

I guess the guys back
then were too busy

or too lazy to follow up.

But when you have no
leads, you have to move on

to the next case.

This is all I can
do for you, Henry.

Maybe check in with PD.

Maybe they can help you further

Well thanks for the help, man,

Henry, emotionally, I, I know

you're still in a war zone.

Anytime you just need to talk
or vent, reach out to me.

I am at war, except this time

I don't have any
weapons to fight.

Stay alert, stay alive.

Thanks for the encouragement.

I'll keep you posted.

Abby, I'm sorry about
asking so many questions.

I'm not trying to pry.

I just wanna get
to know you better.

I don't have time to
talk. I've gotta work.

What about you?

I'm sure there's something
you wanna know about us.

I know all I need to know.

You're the scared
daughters of the boss

who like asking a
lot of questions.

What else do you wanna know?

More about what lurks
in the darkness?

What about your family?
Do you live with them?

I don't have any family.

What do you mean?

My mother didn't want me.

She dumped me in the
foster care system.

And I've been in and out of
homes until I was old enough

to take care of myself.

I went looking for her,

but I heard my grandmother lived
in this town, so here I am.

I'm so sorry.

How'd you find this job?

Your grandfather had the job
posted in the Farmer's Union,

so I went and told
him I was interested,

and he told me he knew
of my grandmother.

So it was just meant to be.

Where is your grandmother?

My grandmother's dead,
just like my mother.

I'd rather get back to work now.

No more questions.

You shouldn't be
worrying about me.

You should be worrying
about yourselves.

Look, I came to speak with
you because the girls said

you're familiar with
this ghost that we have,

and I'm trying to get
all the information

that I can 'cause
I want it to leave.

- What do you wanna know?
- Anything that can help.

Do you know what it looks
like, what it wears?

Anything that triggers
it, the come or go,

the name of the wandering
spirit, anything.

It's an older woman.
She's active at night.

She's been doing strange
things to this farm for years.

It used to really
bother me at first

until your father gave
me the scythe he dug up.

I noticed it would
keep the ghost away.

So when did the ghost
start appearing?

It first started when
I started working here.

Little things at first.

One night, I was out in the barn

and the lights
started flickering.

I could hear footsteps
scratching on the walls.

The animals were all outside
and they started braying.

I checked the extension cords,

but there wasn't
anything wrong with them.

I was freaked out so I left.

It would continue every night,

different things would happen.

One night, I was walking
by the barn window

and it shattered beside me.

But your father had worse
things happening in the house.

What did my father
have to say about it?

He wouldn't say
anything about it.

He always blew me off
and changed the subject.

Did you both get along? Did
you like working for him?

We got along for the most part,

but he was a bit
creepy at times.

Just watching me while I worked.

He was always worried
about me living alone,

and he offered for me
to stay here for free,

but I didn't wanna live with
the ghosts and the animals.

When I get off work, I don't
wanna be around any animals.

I guess you could say the
ghost brought us together

in a weird way.

Even though he was strange,

he was like a father
to me at times.

The girls said you were
there when my father

found the skull and the scythe.

You are not gonna
be in any trouble.

Don't be afraid to
tell me everything.

Your father was in a rush
that day to get the well dug.

I was in here working
on the barn floor

until I heard something and
went outside to check it out.

I walked up there
and startled him.

He tripped and fell and
when I helped him up,

I noticed a scythe and a skull.

He said he dug them up when
he was digging the well

and he said he was
gonna turn the skull in.

He gave me the scythe,
said I could keep it.

It was an antique.

Then he shooed me off, told
me to get back to work.

Look, I want us all to
be comfortable here.

I want us all to get
along just like family.

And I think we can do that
even with a ghost here.

And I'm gonna do
everything I can to get rid

of this problem for all of us.

This is Henry Hillock.

I was given your number by
Author Timothy Hutchinson.

I have something that's terrorizing
me and my two daughters.

I've never dealt with
anything like this before.

I really need your help.

Girls, I'm gonna be cutting
the power for a few minutes.

The power went out.

I really hope it's
just Dad this time.

Dad, the power's out.
Are you down there?

Wait, let me grab a flashlight.

What happened to the power?

Dad?

Where's dad? I thought
he was down here.

Did you hear that?

I heard it. What was that?

What?

Just a spider web.

Obviously Dad's not here,

but I feel like
something's here with me.

What's wrong?

I thought I saw something.

I guess I didn't.

I think something has my hair.

I don't see anything.

Something pulled my hair.

There, there's nothing
there, there's nothing.

Come on. Let's just go find Dad.

Dad's back.

I was thinking of a bargain.

I'll bury the scythe if
you leave them alone.

Uh! Huh?

Oh.

Something about the woods,
it just draws me in.

It feels like
something's out there.

Maybe the ghost lives out there.

What is that?

- It's coming!
- Let's go to the barn!

No, I feel safer with
the horse. Follow me.

To the horse barn, hurry!

It stopped coming
when we got in here.

Grandpa felt safer
with the donkeys,

but I feel safer
with the horses.

So with everything
I've told you,

do you think you can help?

- It depends.
- On what?

On you.

We've been trying not to
feed it fear, but it's hard.

All the activity. I'm trying
to keep the girls calm.

They say they're not
scared, but I know they are.

It doesn't just feed on fear.

There's other things.

Depression.

Bitterness.

The things you're
carrying inside right now.

How do you know that?

I was born with a gift
to see and feel things

that most people can't.

Look, I don't really express
my feelings around the girls,

and I don't have anyone
I could really talk to.

Ever since my wife died,
I've been just a loner.

If you'd like my help in
pursuing this, I can come back.

How much do I owe you?

I don't charge people for a gift

that was freely given to me.

I genuinely wanna
help. No tricks.

That's very honorable.

I appreciate that.

I'm coming. Sorry
it took me so long.

Uh!

Gone!

You two wouldn't have happened
to have found something

unusual in the woods, would you?

No. We haven't even
been in the woods.

You wouldn't take something
that isn't yours, would you?

No. We would never steal.

Then who would?

Can things get any
creepier around here?

I don't know what's
worse, Abby or the ghost.

And to be honest, they almost
remind me of each other.

"It is hard to wake up each day

and confront such guilt.

I loved both Martha
and Abby equally.

I understand that it
is my fault entirely

that Martha is dead.

I cannot turn Abby in because
she is pregnant with my child.

I must hide what happened here.

I will try to buy this property

and guard this event
for the rest of my life.

I now have Martha gone forever

and Abby with child
somewhere out in the world.

How can love be so wonderful
and yet be so dangerous?"

They had the altar
up here on that rock.

So we can take a seat up
here and talk for a bit.

During our walkthrough
in the home,

I could definitely feel the
presence of something dark.

And in the barn, I saw an
elderly woman, her spirit.

She had a dress,
shoulder-length hair.

Do you know who that
might have been?

How can you see the type of
clothing they're wearing?

I mean, how can you see
the details of a spirit?

I can't see anything

Because you're a shield.

Your presence has a sort
of force field around you.

It keeps spirits away.

You probably notice you
are affected by them

a lot less than your children.

Who is she? Why is she here?

Something has triggered her
return and she wants closure.

She's here because she's trying
to tell you what happened.

As for a name or who
she is, I don't know.

I saw she had some kind
of injury on her neck,

probably how she died.

There's a lot of anxiety
in you right now.

Is there something
you're not telling me?

I found another
journal in the house.

It was hidden in the wall.

My father mentioned
a lady named Martha

and that she was killed.

You want my help, don't you?

I'm not God, I don't
know everything.

If you have something
that can help us,

pieces of the puzzle,
you have to tell me.

I was a little embarrassed

so I didn't tell you everything.

From reading my father's
journals and doing my research

and talking with Abby.

Abby, that's who killed her.

No, no, no. Not this Abby.

This, this Abby
works at the farm.

I know it's confusing,
but she's not

the Abby that killed Martha.

Let me try this again.

In my father's journal,
it said Martha was killed

by a lady named Abby.

Now, his other journal stated
that they found a skull

and a scythe buried
on the property.

He took the skull and made
an altar for it in the woods.

Contacting the
dead is forbidden.

You're definitely gonna
wake some things up.

Me and the girls
haven't done anything.

We haven't opened the door.
We haven't contacted the dead.

This is why you feel like
you're living in hell

because you can quite
literally feel the presence

of hell all around you.

We have to close those
doorways before it's too late.

So how do we close
it? I want it closed.

I want it peaceful for
me and my daughters.

How can the owner
of the property

who didn't give permission
have a doorway open?

You took ownership of the land

that the blood was spilled on.

Not only that, but
Hillock, your line,

your father brought
this demon somehow.

The spiritual system
operates on a set of rules,

kind of just like we do.

If you give it a doorway,

then you're inviting it
into your home, your farm.

Everything that's
happening to you right now

is demonic activity.

I thought we just had
a ghost of an old lady.

Now we have a demon here?

Continuing communication
could have brought this.

We don't do that. I
know that for sure.

Wait, Abby.

Abby.

Abby, let talk to
you for a minute.

The animals are great, the
structures are holding up.,

the paddocks are clear, and
the girls have been helping me

a bit, so no worries here.

I'm not here for an update.

When my father turned the
skull in, did go with him?

No.

When's the last time
you saw the skull?

That day, when he found it.

Look, with all the chaos
we've been facing lately,

I'm not in the
mood to play games.

You're gonna be honest or this
is gonna be your last day.

Be honest about what? I haven't
done anything wrong here.

The skull, Abby.

The skull.

Okay. Your father didn't
turn it into the police.

Why?

I don't know why.

All I know is he
kept it in the woods

and made daily visits there.

To visit the skull?

I snuck up on him once and I
heard him calling it Martha

and having
conversations with it.

I just thought he
was losing his mind.

Why would he be
talking to a skull?

From the conversations
he was having,

I guessed he wanted it to leave.

One time I heard him
say, "I love you."

He was always apologizing to it.

"I'm so sorry, Martha."

Well, we didn't talk much,

and he did get pretty distant.

At first, I wouldn't
dare go into the woods,

but I kept hearing
it call my name.

It led me to the skull,
which was in a tree.

I started having
conversations with it.

And I felt comforted.

Something familiar.

It was almost like
being in a trance,

which I would snap out
of after a few hours.

I can't explain it.

And as I spoke with it,
it led me to continue

with the candles, but it
started getting dangerous.

Rocks would be thrown
at me, trees would fall.

The energy changed
and it just felt evil.

One day I was in the woods

and it felt like something
cut me or burnt me.

It hurt so bad,

but when I looked behind
me, nothing was there.

I never went into the woods
since then, until recently

when I tried to bargain
with it to get it to leave.

Well, I snuck up on you and
I heard you talking to her.

Why are you still
visiting with her?

I was just trying to help.

The girls came to me for help

and I was just trying to
get it to stop scaring you.

What did you do? What did he do?

You two brought some type
of curse to this farm.

Everybody knows not
to contact the dead.

I buried the scythe.

I didn't know what else to do,

but I won't talk to it anymore.

I promise. I don't
wanna leave here.

I feel like this is my home.

Ah!

Just leave me alone!

Get out of here!
Leave all of us alone!

Are you okay?

I was going to the
bathroom and then,

and then I saw it
again, the monster.

He, he chased me
back into my room.

I didn't see anything
when I was out in hallway.

But if it's starting
already before bedtime,

then maybe we should go
sleep in Dad's room tonight.

I normally wouldn't, but I
guess that's a good idea.

Just don't tell him what I saw.

I don't wanna worry him.

Can we sleep in
your room tonight?

What happened?

You don't wanna talk about it.

Nothing really, I just,

I was going to the bathroom
and I got spooked a little.

That's fine.

Come on.

Are you a Christian,
Mr. Hillock?

I guess you would
say I am a Christian.

The only way you can
defeat it is through Jesus.

I'm not the closest to God,

but I am a believer.

You have to follow
through with your faith.

Not just say a prayer.

It's a daily walk with God

and you need to
get closer to him.

Otherwise you'll just
send it away temporarily

and it'll find itself back,

seven times worse.

I can't be the one to do it.

You have to break the
generational curse

of the Hillock name.

What do you mean
you're not gonna do it?

That's why you've
been here helping us.

Your daughter, your first born.

She's just child, I
can't let her do this.

It's my job

Right now, your faith is weak,

but your daughter can do this.

If I agree to let her do this,

um, are you gonna teach her
or walk her through this?

The Holy Spirit will guide her.

I'll help her with some prayers.

It's hiding itself from
you, but she can see it.

It's not hard to send it away,

but your heart has to be right.

For once in your life, Henry,

you have to trust God.

Trust God.

I'm just a kid.
How can I do this?

It doesn't matter who you are.

If you're a woman,
a man or a child.

It's not about you.
It's not about us.

We are weak humans. We're flesh.

We're going to feel afraid.

But you have to take the power,

and the power comes
from the blood of Jesus.

It's flawless. It's perfect.

It's powerful.

And when you know your
power, you can defeat this.

I'm a little scared,
but I do believe

that Jesus will protect me.

You don't have to be afraid.

It's gonna be afraid of you

because you're bringing
Jesus to defeat it.

The light will destroy it.

God's with you.
It can't hurt you.

We'll be just outside.

Please Father God,
get me through this.

Please don't leave
our family here alone.

Please stay with us.

Stay with me. Guide me.

I'm not scared of you!

Everyone in this
house, we're all sick

and tired of you being here!

Just leave!

You have no power here.

You can't do
anything to hurt us.

You have no authority.

No power and no rule.

You can't touch anything on
this farm or in this house.

Stop, stop, stop!

None of us, nobody's
afraid of you!

Leave me alone!

You think you can just go around
scaring innocent families?

Well, you can't because
through the power

and authority of Jesus Christ,

who rules over all, even you,

I command you in his
name to leave our house

and leave this property
and never come back!

You have no power
here, no authority.

So in Jesus' name, get out!

Whatever is bound on
Earth, is bound in Heaven.

And I bind all powers of
darkness in Jesus name.

Leave. Don't ever come back.

God, please! Why
isn't this working?

Oh, oh, I have to...

I have to give you a time,

to give you a specific time.

All right.

In one minute, you will leave
this house in Jesus name

and never come back!

In one minute, in Jesus name,

you will leave forever and
you will never come back!

Jesus is Lord,
God is in control,

and in Jesus name you will leave

and stop bothering our family!

Haven't been in the
house in a long time.

It's a lot more peaceful now.

I've been meaning
to speak with you

about some things I found out.

I just couldn't come up
with the words to say.

I found out that your
grandmother Martha

was killed by your mother Abby.

I'm sorry.

My father was in love
with your grandmother

and your mother,
but that's not all.

My father was your father.

We're family?

That's why I've been so
attached to the property.

Your father, you and the girls.

You know, we both have
had a tragic life,

many tragic experiences
in the past,

but I think now we need
to focus on the future.

Focus on now

And right now,

you're a Hillock.

I'm a Hillock.

I finally have a family.
- You're family.

You know what? I got good news.

Look what I found.

I remember where I
buried the scythe.
