She is here.
Things are about to get
interesting.
You guys are so weird.
You'll see, Richie, she's
really good.
Oh, yeah?
Yeah, I'm sure she
can see our futures
in a little glass ball.
Well, I'm doing it.
I'm sure you are, Maddie.
It can't hurt.
Hey!
How you doing, you?
CASSIDY: I am pretty good.
Where would you like to set up?
Don't matter.
Long as y'all can't see me.
(LAUGHS) Well, we are
so ready for you.
Come on.
Hey, everyone.
This is Vesna.
The one I've been
telling you all about?
Vesna, this is everyone.
How y'all doing?
(CROWD MUMBLING)
All right.
Grab your stuff, I'll
show you where to go.
You can set up in here.
Just let us know when you're
ready, okay?
I will.
Don't you worry about that.
(LAUGHS)
She's younger than I thought.
Yeah?
She's kinda hot.
You know, like hippie hot.
I don't know,
I'm definitely doing it.
Shut up, you dork.
God!
What about you, Richie?
No, I'm good.
Come on.
Don't be such a party pooper.
Okay, look, I'm...
I'm honestly not a big fan
of this kind of thing, okay?
It's just a bunch of scammers
looking
to take advantage of people.
All right?
Come on, Richie.
You asked.
Okay.
Hi again, everybody.
ALL: Hi.
A few ground rules.
Don't ask me or the cards
not about what you
don't wanna know.
Or they ain't gonna tell
you none about that.
About how you or anybody else
gonna die.
When somebody die,
there's a split.
(CLAPS) Body, soul.
I do medium.
I try to talk to those
who pass over to the other side.
Now, I will try
but no guarantee.
So, who want to go first?
Me.
What you waiting for, Cher?
Oh!
Shut up, you guys.
Seriously.
Why you so against this anyway?
It's just for fun.
It's stupid.
Come on, relax a little.
Whatever, Cass.
It's just not my thing, okay?
You know what though?
Sometimes you can be a little
too tight.
Grab another beer
and relax a bit.
CAMERON: She just wants everyone
to have a good time, Richie.
Okay.
That was seriously awesome.
Who's next?
Shit, I'll go.
Baby, all you.
(CLAPS)
That was so awesome,
you guys have to try that.
I told you, she's the real deal.
Oh, whatever.
Don't be such an ass.
Okay, how about you go in there
and then tell me afterwards
that she didn't get you right.
Come on, Cassidy.
Here's how it works, okay?
They read your body language,
they throw out something vague,
and then they milk it, right?
They follow your suggestions
based on what you respond to.
Look, I honestly don't know
how you believe in this.
Okay, then do it.
I don't know, let's see if
she can't show you your past.
Yeah, Richie, put your
money where your mouth is.
Couldn't you do something
normal like a sex toy party?
Look, don't even try
to get out of it, okay?
Unless.
Unless you're a scaredy pants.
You know what?
That's it.
You are chicken.
(RICHIE SIGHS)
That's the dumbest thing
I've heard in my life.
If it's so dumb, then do it.
I'll go with you
and hold your hand
if you're scared, honey bear.
You're crazy.
You're crazy.
You're double crazy.
That is some voodoo shit.
All right, who's up?
Richie?
Are you really
gonna chicken out?
Come on, babe.
Hey.
Can we talk to family members?
We can try.
I have always wanted to do that.
We could do a seance.
Okay, y'all, hold hands.
(SIGHS) I feel the spirits.
I already feel the spirits,
they're waiting to talk to you.
Now remember, don't let go
of your partner's hands.
Spirit, oh spirit, who are
here to see family and friends,
come to me, come through me.
ALL: Spirit, oh spirit,
who are here to see
family and friends,
come to me, come through me.
Who this?
Anybody here lost
a papa or mama?
Yeah, like almost
everyone probably?
Shh!
Mama in the last year?
Yeah, me.
Her name Beth or Beth Anne?
Elizabeth.
Yeah.
Oh my god.
Grandma, is that you?
Tina, she misses you.
But she's happy.
She's with Grandpa
and Jimmy now.
Tell her I love her?
She hears you.
(GASPS)
Hold up.
I feel another one.
Wanna come through real bad.
Anyone lost a daddy?
CASSIDY: Richie.
What?
I think that's you.
Shh.
CASSIDY: That's you.
Shh.
It's been a while but...
(DEEP VOICE MUMBLING)
It'll be different this time.
Richard.
Oh shit, what the fuck was that?
Oh god.
It's bullshit.
(VESNA GASPING)
Baby.
Are you okay?
Cassidy, that shit is not funny.
All right?
I told you my dad was crazy.
I told you, and not like the
fun,
not like the funny
kind of crazy,
not like, like "The Shining"
kind of crazy, okay?
He almost killed my mom.
I'm telling you, I had
nothing to do with this.
I didn't do anything.
Whatever, Cass.
Baby, look.
I don't know what
happened in there
but I don't think
that was your daddy.
RICHIE: Yeah, no shit.
Whatever it was,
it pushed through.
And I don't know.
Take this.
What's that?
It'll keep the bad juju away.
Seriously?
I know you can't see this for
what it is right now, but...
Okay.
Honestly, I think you've done
enough
and you should probably just
leave, okay?
Okay.
You be careful, you.
We will.
(SIGHS)
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
MADDIE: Is he okay now?
Yeah.
I mean, I think so.
What happened last night
scared the shit out of me.
I can't handle
this kind of shit.
I can't even watch a scary movie
without hiding under the fucking
blankets, it's ridiculous.
I know.
What happened?
Honestly, I have no idea.
MADDIE: Was it his dad?
I don't know.
Why is he so uptight about all
this?
I'm not really
sure I should tell.
I mean, it's a really personal
and sensitive topic for Richie.
Cassie, this didn't
just happen to Richie,
this happened to all of us.
I know.
Look, I'm not gonna say a word.
Well, um,
I guess his dad
went all Amityville
and tried to kill his mom and
Richie.
No way.
Yeah.
And Richie, he never
told me all the details
and I don't want to push,
but I guess he saved his
mom and killed his dad.
I mean, his dad like
tried to kill his mom,
so he shot him.
And even worse, his mom,
she's in a mental institution
and she has been ever since.
She won't even talk to Richie.
That's fucking nuts.
Yeah.
Look, Maddie, please, don't,
don't say anything to anyone,
all right?
Not even Cameron.
At least until we
figure this out.
Look, I'm not gonna
say a word, I promise.
Thank you.
MADDIE: Of course.
(DOOR SLAMS)
(CLATTERING)
Cassie?
Honey, is that you?
(SCRAPING)
Baby?
Are you home?
(STAIRS CREAKING)
Cassidy?
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
(DOOR SQUEAKING)
(ECHOING VOICE WHISPERING)
(CLATTERING)
Richie.
Hi.
You're home early.
Yeah.
Maybe I can make some of
that stuff up to you now, huh?
Yeah, maybe.
Hey, I heard some, some noises.
(LAUGHS) From the bedroom,
I hope.
Maybe.
I, I don't know.
Okay.
How was your day?
It was fine.
I mean, it wasn't bad.
Hey, I should go.
I should go check on
whatever that was.
(SWISHING)
Spirit.
This is my home.
You are not welcome here.
Oh.
You wanna do a little dance?
Huh?
You wanna do a little (MUMBLES)?
MAN: Hello?
Come over, Cher.
What's up?
There's a spirit, he been
messing with me a little bit.
Okay, I can make
time tonight so...
Okay, Cher.
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
WOMAN: She's got a gun!
There's, there's a woman
with gun, she's coming.
(RICHIE SIGHS)
(BANGING)
What was that?
I don't know.
Did you leave the
bedroom door open?
I don't think so.
(BANGS)
Hey, be careful.
What are you doing?
Shh.
Just...
Okay?
I'm just trying not to
take any chances, okay?
Yeah, in case someone
throws you a baseball?
Baby, what if there
was someone in our house?
Yeah, or a draft.
GIRL: Did you use
all the hot water again?
I just showered!
Yeah, for like half an hour.
So I enjoy a hot shower, sue me.
Whatever.
(CLATTERING)
GIRL: Was that you?
No, that was from the basement.
Is Dad home?
I don't think so.
So who else would it be?
I don't know.
(SCRAPING)
You should go look.
No way, you're older,
you go look.
Dude, I am freezing.
I just got out of the shower or
I would.
Let's go together.
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
I don't see anything.
Let's go.
(BUZZING)
(CHIMES TINKLING)
So tell me, what's so urgent?
Something happened
at work last night.
What?
I did a couple readings
and I got everybody
together to do a seance.
(MUMBLES) I don't know.
Something pushed through.
Like a spirit?
Your guess is as good as mine.
But I'll tell you one thing.
Whatever it was, it was stronger
than anything
I've ever felt before.
Stronger than, well, you know.
Huh.
Took me over.
Went through me,
went through all of us.
It's like we set it free or
something.
No human spirit
can do such a thing.
It must be a, a demon
or a poltergeist.
Did you have your items?
I always do, Cher.
This is too layers for
most to push through.
See?
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
No.
I hope you are right.
I hope you're wrong.
(BANGING)
Be careful, baby.
I'm armed!
I'm warning you!
CASSIDY: Baby, what's going on?
I don't, I don't know.
The cupboards are...
Can you hear me?
They're...
It's the fucking gypsy woman
you brought into our house.
She...
Baby?
It could be your dad.
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
(LAUGHS) Baby,
what are you doing?
Are you okay?
I'm, uh,
I'm going to go see my mom.
Are you sure?
You understand that
what happened last time
will likely happen again?
I know.
Jeez, the last time you went,
you were messed up for days.
I just really hope
that you're putting
some thought into this.
Yeah, I know.
I know, I know, babe,
but I need to go.
Baby.
I don't know.
I do.
I'll see you soon.
(KISSES)
(CASSIDY SIGHS)
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
Oh no.
What the fuck?
(CAMERA CLICKING)
(PHONE BUZZING)
ZEB: Hello?
VESNA: Did you get my texts yet?
ZEB: Not yet.
You see what is
going on with me, Cher?
Oui.
What the hell do I do?
I'm not sure
but let me find out.
You stay safe now, you hear?
All right.
(LAUGHS)
(SIGHS)
Hi.
Hey, Richie, how are you?
Doing fine.
How's my mom doing?
She's still the same, sweetie.
Just be gentle, okay?
Okay, thank you.
(SLOW MUSIC)
Hi, Mom.
(SHARON MUMBLING)
It's your son.
Richie.
You.
You're not my son.
I think...
I think he's back.
I mean, not him exactly but
his energy or something.
I need to know
what happened, Mom.
(SHARON GROANING)
I need to know what
really happened to him.
Please.
I thought maybe,
maybe you'd want to help me.
Like I helped you.
I guess not.
(SIGHS) It's fine.
I'm sorry, Mom.
I'm sorry.
(SHARON SCREAMS)
You are him.
NURSE: You should go, Richie.
SHARON: You are him.
I'm sorry.
- She needs her rest.
- He is you, you are him.
NURSE: She needs to settle down.
He is you, he is you, he is you,
you are him, you are him,
you are him,
you are him, you are him,
you, you are.
So it looks like Abaddon or
Agramon.
Maybe even (MUMBLES).
Not very good news, I'm afraid.
How would we find out?
In due time.
There are always signs.
I'm gonna call the
people at the party.
No, no.
There's a chance
they're not involved.
How would they know?
(PHONE RINGING)
Hello?
Hey, Cher, it's me, Vesna.
I'm gonna put you on speaker
phone.
Hey, I was just thinking of
calling you.
I kind of had a feeling.
Any trouble over there?
Yeah.
You could say that.
We're actually at a hotel right
now.
Can't really afford to
stay much longer though
but I'm not going home.
I got you, Cher,
but the kind of stuff we're
dealing with,
I don't think it
matters where you go.
I need to see you, Cher.
Okay.
When?
No matter, but the sooner the
better.
Oh, and I'd like to
bring my partner.
He gonna like your place.
Really?
Why?
He's special.
More so than me, Cher.
Okay, yeah.
I'd, I'd rather not go
later on though.
You know, after dark?
How's about five?
All right.
Bye bye.
Hope you're ready for this.
(SIREN WAILING)
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
Dad?
(VOICE ECHOING)
(SIGHS) I don't have
a good feeling on this.
Me neither.
Suppose we have no other chance.
Still gonna follow you
no matter where you go.
(CAR HONKING)
Rich, Cass, this is the partner
I been telling you about.
Zeb.
Nice to meet you.
Well, I hope you can
get rid of this thing.
I hope so too, Cher.
Let's go inside.
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
It is not here.
RICHIE: What?
(SNAPPING)
Zeb?
Where exactly were
you when it happened?
I was sitting right here.
CASSIDY: And I was
here, next to Richie.
And what did it say?
She, she said something
like "It'll be different
this time, Richie."
But it did not sound like her.
In the voice of your father?
Not exactly, no.
It didn't quite sound
like her either.
Your father, was he a bad man?
You could say that, sure.
If you don't mind,
what did he do?
Um, I really prefer
not to talk about it.
It happened a long time ago,
I was 12, so.
Baby, you have to.
Okay, um.
Long story short,
one week he went nuts.
He got violent, he tried
to kill my mom and me.
And one night when he was
strangling her,
I shot him with his own gun.
(GUN BANGS)
What have you done?
She said that I was becoming
like him
and I lost her too.
She's been in a mental
institution ever since.
I'm sorry, Richie.
I am convinced it is not your
father we are dealing with.
But I think I know who it is.
Who?
His name is Agramon.
And he's powerful,
so powerful he can fully
manifest.
And he feeds on your fear.
Jesus, what are you talking
about?
You mean like a demon or
something?
No, not like a demon,
but one of the very worst.
Some people say Baal is
the devil's right hand.
I will argue that
Agramon is his left hand
and that the devil is
left-handed.
So, what?
We fight back.
We stay together,
we stay strong.
I think I saw him today.
What?
In Pontiac, I was on
my way to pick up Cassie
and it looked like my dad.
I followed him but
he kinda disappeared.
He's already powerful
enough he can manifest,
then we are in for a
battle and we should leave.
Now?
Vesna.
A holy place.
Follow me.
And we, your fear is
what strengthens him.
How's this shit not gonna?
I'm sorry, this stuff
not going to scare us?
Oh, it will, my babe.
It will.
But what he's saying is
you got to feed the monster
as little as possible.
You know, starve the fuck.
Hope he moves on, you know?
Exactly.
Okay, but isn't there something,
I mean something else, like
something more we could do?
Besides essentially
hoping that he gets bored?
First, you should call all
your friends.
He may or may not
have gone after them yet
but when you resist,
he most likely will.
I'm sorry, they're
in danger too?
Oui.
And wherever you go, he
will likely follow you.
So.
The motel isn't safe.
I'm afraid nowhere is
all that safe right now.
I will talk to some friends
and see what else we can do,
but for now you stay
strong, you stay together.
You keep that strength
from him, okay?
This is the key.
(DOOR CLOSING)
Hey, babe, how was your day?
(KISSES) It was pretty good
actually.
Just got promoted to...
(CLATTERING)
What was that?
I don't know.
Is anyone here?
No.
(SAFE BEEPING)
(SCRAPING)
What the hell?
Is anything missing?
I don't know.
Cam, this is nuts.
(CRASHING)
Babe, I'm scared.
Everything is gonna be okay,
baby.
(PHONE RINGING)
Hey.
Hey.
So about the
party the other night.
Yeah.
And how it ended.
Something came through.
Well, that explains all this
shit.
CASSIDY: What?
It looked like somebody
broke in, nothing's missing,
and it happened
while we were here.
Shit.
You guys should come over.
To your place?
I don't think so.
You think it matters
where you are?
I see your point.
I'll be there in 15.
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
(VIDEO SQUEAKING)
(DOOR SLAMS)
(ECHOING VOICE WHISPERING)
I know you're here.
I can hear him, I can feel him.
The depths of hell on you,
Carter.
I'm not afraid of you.
You can take my life.
But not my son.
(SCREAMING)
Just a dream, Sharon.
Sharon, it's just a dream!
He was there, he was there!
It was just a dream,
it was just a dream.
No!
(GASPING)
It was a dream.
(HUMMING)
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
Demon.
You are not welcome here.
(RATTLING)
(ECHOING VOICE WHISPERING)
I am not afraid of you, demon.
You don't like that, do you?
(RATTLING)
So let me get this right.
If we aren't scared of
him, he can't hurt us.
I don't think it's quite that
simple.
What they said was the more
scared we are,
the stronger it gets.
But, um, they did give us this.
It is the amulet for St.
Michael.
It represents courage.
You guys believe in that stuff?
Like you, Richie?
Come on, man, you of all people?
At this point, Cam,
what do I have to lose?
No, I'm with you on that.
Do you guys have any more?
No.
But we do have these.
They should help.
What are you gonna do?
I don't know.
(KNOCKING)
Honey, is there
anybody else coming over?
Hang on.
CAMERON: I got your back.
RICHIE: Who's there?
Who's there?
SHARON: Open the door, please!
It's Mom.
I'm gonna open it.
CAMERON: You crazy?
CASSIDY: Richie, don't.
Mom?
Get inside.
Come inside.
He, he came for me.
What happened?
(SHARON STAMMERING)
Mom?
Richie.
What?
How did she get out?
I don't know.
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
(GASPS)
(KNOB SQUEAKS)
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
I'm still trying to
figure it out, Richie.
What are you doing here?
Who to pass to?
You or your mom?
What are you talking about?
You know exactly what I mean,
Richie.
No.
No, I don't.
And...
Nothing,
nothing passed, you,
you did this.
That's all there is to
it, there's nothing else.
I saw it.
I'm pretty sure it passed to
you.
Admit it.
You felt the urge.
If you were to spare
me, I could teach you.
We'd be unstoppable.
Richie.
Don't let him fool you like he
fooled me.
He's trying to infect your mind.
(LAUGHS) Look at him.
He's done.
Don't let him in.
Don't let him in, you're
stronger than you think, Richie.
Richie.
Listen to her?
She hasn't been there for you.
She's the one who's been
accusing you.
- Shut up.
- Richie.
Shut up, shut up, shut up,
shut up,
shut up, shut up, shut up, shut
up.
Dead.
You're dead.
So are you.
(RICHIE GASPING)
Oh my god!
(RICHIE PANTING)
(SLOW MUSIC)
Where's my mom?
What?
My mom, where'd she go?
She was right there.
Mom?
Hey, I'm sorry.
I should have called when she
got here.
Did she come back?
My mom.
My mom, Sharon.
Sharon Stann.
I can't find her, did she come
back?
WOMAN: Sharon?
She's in her room.
No.
No, no, no, no.
She must have gotten out or
something
because she was here.
WOMAN: I gave her breakfast
and meds this morning myself.
Is, is this Richie?
Yes?
Are you absolutely certain?
WOMAN: Yes.
She's been here all night,
Richie.
(PHONE BEEPS)
Um.
So she's there.
They said she never left.
How is that even possible?
Who the hell did we let
into our house last night?
I think we both know who.
You know, this is so fucked up!
These amulets.
What was all this for?
So what, this thing can
shape-shift
into anything it wants at any
time?
How the hell are we supposed
to know who's real or not?
(CARDS RUSTLING)
Next card up all gonna be you.
WOMAN: What was that?
Gotta redo card.
Something not right.
I'm guessing the card
don't want to show today.
Maybe we can do something else.
I mean, I really just
wanted the regular reading.
But I guess.
It'll be on the house.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
Something wrong?
Not you, Cher.
Just something not right.
(SCREAMS)
Oh my god.
What is going on?
I guess that's all I needed to
see
to know today's not the day.
(STATIC BUZZING)
AGRAMON: You're all going to
die.
You're sure it's Agramon?
All the signs points towards it.
That's not good.
And it is already strong,
strong enough to manifest.
So there's no other way out?
Not that I can see.
We stay and we fight.
Well, I have something.
Something that might work.
This.
This is the demon killer.
And you think this will work?
I do.
It's supposed to have been
blessed by two disciples
and they say it's what killed
Dracula.
WOMAN: (mumbles) The
budget meeting very soon.
Of course.
WOMAN: Yeah.
Maybe Mike and the guys can
meet...
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
Sorry, excuse me.
Rich.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
(SQUEAKING)
RICHIE: Can we talk for a
minute?
Sure, Richie, what's up?
You all right?
Look like you seen a ghost.
(RICHIE LAUGHS)
I need to take the rest of
today off.
If that's okay, I'll make
it up to you this weekend.
Sure.
Is there anything I can help
with?
Trust me, Ben, you don't want
to.
I don't know what that means
but, uh,
I'll take your word for it.
Thank you.
Yeah, no problem.
Hey, um, I'm here to
see Mrs. Sharon Stann.
Miss Stann, how are you?
All right.
Mind signing there for me?
Yeah.
You know, she's had a rough
time these last couple days.
So I'll go in there with you,
okay?
Okay, yeah, thank you.
Hey, Sharon.
It's Cassie.
Well, god, things have
gotten pretty crazy.
Is there anything that you can
tell us?
Please, Sharon.
I don't want it to use
Richie's dad against us.
People's lives are at stake
here, Sharon!
Okay, she doesn't
need more stress.
Cassidy, you're gonna have
to calm down or leave, okay?
You don't understand.
He is after us and he's getting
stronger.
I said calm down.
You listen to me.
It passed from Carter to Richie.
He's here to claim him.
Best get away.
No, no, no.
You see, that's not an option
for me.
I'm gonna stand by Richie
just like you should have!
Cassidy, let's go, come on.
You're all gonna die!
Do you hear me?
You all gonna die!
He is him, him is he.
He is him, him is he.
He is him, him is he.
He is him, him is he.
Look, I don't know what's
going on here
but this isn't acceptable.
You're right, none
of this is acceptable!
(KNOCKING)
(KISSES)
I think we got a shot at
ending this.
Oh yeah?
Mm-hmm.
You say we have a
shot at ending it, huh?
Yes.
With this.
Oh, wow.
This legit?
I got it from Killian, so I'd
say so.
I bet you been around, my babe.
I'm gonna give Cassidy a call.
Tell her we have the good news.
(PHONE BUZZING)
Hey.
Bonjour.
We might have something to help
put an end
to this (MUMBLES) once and for
all.
(CAR ALARM BEEPING)
AGRAMON: Time to die.
CAMERON: What the fuck?
Don't be scared, my ass, baby.
I'm freaking out right now!
Babe, we have to be strong.
Remember, this thing, this
thing feeds off of our fear.
I don't know if I can right
now, okay?
You have to.
AGRAMON: I'm going to kill you.
What the?
I can't, I can't do
this, I can't do this.
(CAR BEEPING)
CAMERON: Gotta walk.
Screw this.
(BANGING)
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
(FLOOR CREAKING)
(SCRAPING)
(ECHOING VOICE WHISPERING)
(BANGING)
Stop.
What the hell is going on?
You killed me, Richie.
Your own father.
You were killing Mom.
I was angry.
But you know I would never kill
her.
That's bullshit.
If I wouldn't have shot you,
you would've killed her.
No, Richie.
I'm your father.
And I love you.
I would never hurt you or your
mother.
We should go to her.
She needs to see us together.
It'll help her.
Come on.
You're not my father.
Yes, I am.
No.
I know who you are.
And I'm not gonna deal with you.
Demon.
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
Richie.
Would you hurt a little girl?
You doing all right, you?
No, no, no actually.
I just saw my dead father.
And then it wasn't him
and I tried to hit it
and it disappeared.
There was just some smoke.
It looks like we got here just
in time.
I'd say so.
So what's your idea?
Not so much an idea
but now we have this.
We got it from a close friend
who knows a thing or two about
demons.
And he calls this the demon
killer.
And that'll work?
If Killian says it does,
I will take his word for it.
Cool.
That's, that's good.
Because this thing, not so much.
(LAUGHS)
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
My gun.
It's inside.
Well, what good is it there?
Hello, it's in the frickin'
safe.
Well, that sucks.
Don't get mad at me.
You're the one who told me I
had to start using the safe
because you wanted to have
frickin' kids.
Look, I know what we said, okay?
But right now, that's not gonna
help us.
Hang on.
My nerves are shot.
Yeah, this is some messed up
shit.
Can we please go back
to Cassie and Richie's?
You know, as screwed up as
that sounds,
I think that's probably the
best...
(CLATTERING)
Shh.
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
Only way in is through the
front door.
You're sure this'll work?
No, but it is the best we got.
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
Show yourself.
(ECHOING VOICE WHISPERING)
I'm not afraid of you.
No, no, no, no, no.
I, I faced you before.
And I'll face you again.
Your reign of terror is over.
I belong to God now.
I belong to God.
My soul is his.
Maybe so.
But I'm not done with you.
You can still feel pain.
(LAUGHS)
And when I'm done with you,
Richie's next.
And trust me when I say this.
His soul is up for grabs.
He'll stand up to you.
Maybe.
At first.
You pushing him away all
these years has made him weak.
What a failure of a mother you
are.
You can't even protect your own
son.
He's stronger than you think.
Yeah.
That's why you're here.
(LAUGHS)
You can't get to him.
You're weak.
Am I?
(GROANING)
(VIDEO BUZZING)
Do we even know if he'll show
up?
Oui.
Eventually.
I can't just sit here
and stare at a door.
Anyone else hungry?
No.
No.
RICHIE: No.
All right, well,
I'm gonna go get myself
something to eat then.
(KNOCKING)
MAN: Hey, let us in!
(BANGING)
Shit, that's my friend.
- Whoa, whoa, whoa.
- Hey, wait.
How do we even know it's them?
Look, I got this.
Is everything okay?
I don't know.
Take this and put it in your
hand.
What?
Now you.
Are you guys okay?
Give me your hand.
Yeah.
Just tension overload
from all this craziness.
Oh my god.
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
(SQUEAKING)
Hey, who's here?
Tiff, who's here?
What?
I saw someone come into your
room
and seriously, do not lie to me.
If you're smoking pot with
Claire again, I'm telling Mom.
What are you talking about?
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
Who's that?
Dad?
What, sweetie?
GIRL: Dad, there's
someone in the house.
Dad?
Hey, sweetie.
I think they're looking for ya.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
Oh shit.
(SCARY MUSIC)
GIRL: Go!
(MUMBLING)
RICHIE: How long is this
gonna take?
A couple of days, a week at
the most.
Okay.
Well, I got to work.
Yeah.
Me too.
I think we better stick
together.
Yeah, well.
I live in the real world with
real bills,
so I can't lose my job.
Sure.
I'll be back after work.
Maddie?
Feel free to stay as long as you
like.
Cam, you can pop back over after
work.
Until we figure this thing out.
Baby.
Promise me you'll be careful.
Yeah.
Hey, wait up.
Wanna give me a lift to my car?
Yeah, no problem.
Haven't heard anything in a
while.
He's gone?
Well, I'm not opening it.
Did you think?
I don't know.
I mean, it looked...
I never even saw Mom.
Okay, um, hang on, just.
Okay.
TIFFANY: Wait.
Okay.
(GASPS)
Hey, don't, Tiffany.
Tiff.
Tiff, you're fine, come here.
Okay.
(CRYING)
I know.
But hey, we have to go, okay?
We have to go, okay?
Okay.
Sleeping in today, huh?
That's a first.
(CRASHES)
(SCREAMS)
Oh my god!
Oh my god, Sharon, no!
WOMAN: What happened?
Get us security.
Saint Mary's south ward.
We got an apparent homicide.
No, she cold.
She been dead a while.
Hey, you gonna be okay?
Yeah.
You?
I guess we'll see, right?
Be safe.
You too.
NURSE: This has never
happened before.
And you were staffed all night?
Yes.
And we have the footage of
them doing rounds, I just...
I just don't understand.
I'll need a copy of this.
Sure.
Anything else you can think of?
No.
I mean, I mean I had a strange
call
from Richie the other night.
But it's always strange dealing
with them,
so I didn't think anything of
it.
Richie.
That's her son, right?
Mm-hmm.
Hey, Simmons.
Yeah?
DETECTIVE: Come here.
What you got?
Look at this.
SIMMONS: What was that?
I don't know.
She said she'd never
seen it do this before.
Who had access to this last
night?
Security and the
night nurses, I suppose.
Gonna need a list of
everyone that worked last night
as soon as possible, please.
Sure.
I'll get it off the schedule for
you.
Visitors, deliveries,
anyone that came in and out.
And what about this Richie
thing?
He says she came over late
at night a couple nights before
but she was here all night.
It was strange.
Even his wife came and said
something.
I'm not sure what it was,
but it upset Sharon.
Can you pull the
footage from that night?
Sure, I can get that for
you, but I don't see why.
Yeah, I know she was here.
I gave her her meds that
morning at 6:00 a.m.
when I came in to do rounds.
Can we look?
Sure.
Hold on a sec.
Let me just.
Yeah, I'm sorry.
I don't know what's going on
here.
I'll be needing that too.
As a matter of fact,
just give me the last
two weeks of footage.
I still don't understand.
I mean, this, this has
never happened before.
I apologize.
(CLATTERING)
(SAFE BEEPING)
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
(SIGHS)
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
(LAUGHING)
Hello?
Richie?
RICHIE: Yeah?
I'm afraid I have some bad news.
Okay.
Your mom passed away last night.
What, how?
NURSE: We don't know.
Oh my god.
I'm so sorry, Richie.
Look, I know you didn't
feel close to your mom
because of her condition,
but I know how she was when you
left.
And I know she loved you.
I'm sorry.
In the next few days,
you'll hear from the police.
They're trying to figure
out what happened.
Do you remember the other night,
when you said she came over?
Well, the footage is all messed
up.
From that night and even last
night.
What do you mean?
It's static.
And the screen is blurred out.
If I didn't know any better,
I'd say it was tampered with.
Are you saying she
might have been killed?
No, I'm not saying that.
But it's very strange, to
say the least, you know?
Okay.
If you don't mind,
I'd like to come and collect her
things?
The police are taking most
everything.
You'll have to get it from them.
Okay.
Richie.
Look, I'm so sorry for your
loss.
Hey, Dave, can we talk for a
second?
DAVE: Sure.
Give us a moment.
Of course.
(RICHIE SIGHS)
Um.
So my mom just passed.
Oh, man.
Yeah, I'm sorry to hear that,
man.
Mm-hmm.
So if it's not too much to ask,
I'd...
I'd like a couple days off?
Of course.
Family first, Richie.
Family first.
Yeah.
Thank you.
Yeah, no problem, man.
(SLOW MUSIC)
(KNOCKING)
I'll go.
Detective Blackwell, LLPD.
This is Detective Simmons.
Is Richard Stann home?
You mean Richie?
No.
He's at work.
You're his wife.
No.
I'm a friend.
I am.
I take it you haven't talked
to Richard, Richie, today?
Why do you say that?
His mother was
found dead this morning.
Oh my god.
I'm sorry.
We don't have a lot of
details at this point,
but we're not ruling out foul
play.
Um, I have a feeling
that this is going to
sound really crazy, but...
We are having some really
strange things happening here.
It's a long story.
Time is something I do have.
Okay, you know, come inside.
Let's have a seat.
(RICHIE SIGHS)
(SCARY MUSIC)
I know that this all sounds
insane
but, you know, when you look
around here,
you will find a perfectly
normal couple, okay?
Blocking demons off with
salt to their house.
Yeah, I have to admit,
it sounds pretty wild.
Do you believe in God?
Yeah, sure.
I mean, I believe in some God.
Not sure what that matters
or what that means.
Do you believe in spirituality?
Sure.
So then you believe in spirits
and now it's not so far-fetched,
no?
What I've found is people do
bad things,
sometimes because of what they
believe
and sometimes because they're
just flat out sick people.
But that's it.
It's people.
It is people under the
influence.
See, there's a spiritual
world war going on out there.
(KNOCKING)
Is anyone going to answer that?
(CRYING)
That thing killed our parents.
What?
It killed them!
Baby, it's getting worse.
That thing, it just killed
Natalie's mom and dad too!
Okay.
I don't know what your plan is
but we need to step it up.
(PHONE DIALING)
ZEB: Oui?
Do you need a plan B?
Mr. Stann, I apologize for
taking up so much of your time.
(SLOW MUSIC)
Killian.
What do you have for me?
Well, I was trying
to think of what to do.
And then I remembered
Padre Martinez found this
at the Gate of Erebus.
He was convinced that the
demon was trapped in it.
It could be nothing,
but it could be worth it.
Well, from everything
I have seen and heard,
I believe we have opened
Agramon's gate right here.
So we need every bullet
in our gun possible,
if you know what I mean.
Well, I'm glad I could be of
help.
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
(SCREAMS)
Get away, get away!
AGRAMON: You're all going to
die.
(KNOCKING)
RICHIE: Who's there?
SHARON: Richie, open the door.
It's Mom.
It is not her.
(KNOCKING)
MAN: Richie.
Richie.
Listen up.
Open this door right now!
Can we, can we keep it outside?
That is plan A, yeah.
Okay, what's plan B?
Let's hope plan A works.
Maybe we can
do this another way.
- Listen to this.
- Yeah.
Richard John Stann
killed his father in 1999.
He was 12.
He shot him.
It says his father had been
acting strange
and had become violent
and in one of his rages,
attempted to kill his wife Sharon
when Richard came to her
aid and shot his father.
Are you completely
sure about this, Killian?
It is the least
confrontational way.
He's strong already.
He's going to break through
and enter eventually.
ZEB: Yeah, but this doesn't
feel safe.
At this point, my
friend, nothing is safe.
(KNOCKING)
Shit.
Taking a sleeping pill.
I'm gonna be done with this.
You guys can handle
this shit on your own.
Maddie, are you nuts?
I'd rather be asleep
than getting ripped apart.
I'm literally considering
this whole bottle.
No, that's not going to
happen, okay?
Have you lost your mind?
I'm done with this.
Hello?
Who's there?
DETECTIVE: Detective
Blackwood again.
Can we come in?
VESNA: Give me your hand.
What?
You're good.
(SCARY MUSIC)
This is going to sound crazy,
but I think I have to do this.
Have to do what?
We open the seal, we let
it in with me, and I kill it.
Why don't we do what I said?
I think it's safer.
Besides, the demon
can't lie to us.
You wanna lose the other eye?
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
Cam should have
been here by now.
So much crazy things are
happening,
who knows what's going on.
I hope he's okay.
He hasn't answered
any of my calls.
Hey, focus your energy
on here and now, okay?
Okay.
It's ready.
The last time we tried
talking to the dead,
this whole damn mess started.
I sincerely hope you
know what you're doing.
As do I.
This is the least
confrontational way to get him.
It's worth a shot.
(HANDS RUBBING)
Spirit, oh spirit.
Come to me.
Come through me.
Who are you?
(ECHOING VOICE WHISPERING)
Hey.
It's me.
I'm fine.
Just help me up.
(SCARY MUSIC)
(SCREAMING)
KILLIAN: Cannot lie to me,
demon.
What the hell, I thought you,
I thought you said it wasn't my
dad.
It isn't.
You said it couldn't lie.
Wait, wait.
VESNA: In your room.
Okay, that's enough, come back.
That wasn't no demon.
It was Carter.
Your daddy's here.
Yeah, can I take so many pills?
No, no way.
We're getting out of this
alive, do you hear me?
It's just a little
overwhelming, you know?
So what now?
Now,
I guess we kill it.
(KNOCKING)
CAMERON: Let me in, quickly.
Quickly!
Where have you been, man?
(SIZZLING)
(SCARY MUSIC)
Shit!
Stay back.
Demon, fight me.
I remember you from my place.
You're not as tough as you
like to pretend you are.
(GRUNTS)
(VESNA SHUSHING)
Take it easy, Cher.
Everything gonna be fine.
(SCARY MUSIC)
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
(SLOW MUSIC)
(INSECTS CHIRPING)
(KNOCKING)
She is here.
Things are about to get
interesting.
You guys are so weird.
You'll see, Richie, she's
really good.
Oh, yeah?
Yeah, I'm sure she
can see our futures
in a little glass ball.
Well, I'm doing it.
I'm sure you are, Maddie.
It can't hurt.
Hey!
How you doing, you?
CASSIDY: I am pretty good.
Where would you like to set up?
Don't matter.
Long as y'all can't see me.
(LAUGHS) Well, we are
so ready for you.
Come on.
Hey, everyone.
This is Vesna.
The one I've been
telling you all about?
Vesna, this is everyone.
How y'all doing?
(CROWD MUMBLING)
All right.
Grab your stuff, I'll
show you where to go.
You can set up in here.
Just let us know when you're
ready, okay?
I will.
Don't you worry about that.
(LAUGHS)
She's younger than I thought.
Yeah?
She's kinda hot.
You know, like hippie hot.
I don't know,
I'm definitely doing it.
Shut up, you dork.
God!
What about you, Richie?
No, I'm good.
Come on.
Don't be such a party pooper.
Okay, look, I'm...
I'm honestly not a big fan
of this kind of thing, okay?
It's just a bunch of scammers
looking
to take advantage of people.
All right?
Come on, Richie.
You asked.
Okay.
Hi again, everybody.
ALL: Hi.
A few ground rules.
Don't ask me or the cards
not about what you
don't wanna know.
Or they ain't gonna tell
you none about that.
About how you or anybody else
gonna die.
When somebody die,
there's a split.
(CLAPS) Body, soul.
I do medium.
I try to talk to those
who pass over to the other side.
Now, I will try
but no guarantee.
So, who want to go first?
Me.
What you waiting for, Cher?
Oh!
Shut up, you guys.
Seriously.
Why you so against this anyway?
It's just for fun.
It's stupid.
Come on, relax a little.
Whatever, Cass.
It's just not my thing, okay?
You know what though?
Sometimes you can be a little
too tight.
Grab another beer
and relax a bit.
CAMERON: She just wants everyone
to have a good time, Richie.
Okay.
That was seriously awesome.
Who's next?
Shit, I'll go.
Baby, all you.
(CLAPS)
That was so awesome,
you guys have to try that.
I told you, she's the real deal.
Oh, whatever.
Don't be such an ass.
Okay, how about you go in there
and then tell me afterwards
that she didn't get you right.
Come on, Cassidy.
Here's how it works, okay?
They read your body language,
they throw out something vague,
and then they milk it, right?
They follow your suggestions
based on what you respond to.
Look, I honestly don't know
how you believe in this.
Okay, then do it.
I don't know, let's see if
she can't show you your past.
Yeah, Richie, put your
money where your mouth is.
Couldn't you do something
normal like a sex toy party?
Look, don't even try
to get out of it, okay?
Unless.
Unless you're a scaredy pants.
You know what?
That's it.
You are chicken.
(RICHIE SIGHS)
That's the dumbest thing
I've heard in my life.
If it's so dumb, then do it.
I'll go with you
and hold your hand
if you're scared, honey bear.
You're crazy.
You're crazy.
You're double crazy.
That is some voodoo shit.
All right, who's up?
Richie?
Are you really
gonna chicken out?
Come on, babe.
Hey.
Can we talk to family members?
We can try.
I have always wanted to do that.
We could do a seance.
Okay, y'all, hold hands.
(SIGHS) I feel the spirits.
I already feel the spirits,
they're waiting to talk to you.
Now remember, don't let go
of your partner's hands.
Spirit, oh spirit, who are
here to see family and friends,
come to me, come through me.
ALL: Spirit, oh spirit,
who are here to see
family and friends,
come to me, come through me.
Who this?
Anybody here lost
a papa or mama?
Yeah, like almost
everyone probably?
Shh!
Mama in the last year?
Yeah, me.
Her name Beth or Beth Anne?
Elizabeth.
Yeah.
Oh my god.
Grandma, is that you?
Tina, she misses you.
But she's happy.
She's with Grandpa
and Jimmy now.
Tell her I love her?
She hears you.
(GASPS)
Hold up.
I feel another one.
Wanna come through real bad.
Anyone lost a daddy?
CASSIDY: Richie.
What?
I think that's you.
Shh.
CASSIDY: That's you.
Shh.
It's been a while but...
(DEEP VOICE MUMBLING)
It'll be different this time.
Richard.
Oh shit, what the fuck was that?
Oh god.
It's bullshit.
(VESNA GASPING)
Baby.
Are you okay?
Cassidy, that shit is not funny.
All right?
I told you my dad was crazy.
I told you, and not like the
fun,
not like the funny
kind of crazy,
not like, like "The Shining"
kind of crazy, okay?
He almost killed my mom.
I'm telling you, I had
nothing to do with this.
I didn't do anything.
Whatever, Cass.
Baby, look.
I don't know what
happened in there
but I don't think
that was your daddy.
RICHIE: Yeah, no shit.
Whatever it was,
it pushed through.
And I don't know.
Take this.
What's that?
It'll keep the bad juju away.
Seriously?
I know you can't see this for
what it is right now, but...
Okay.
Honestly, I think you've done
enough
and you should probably just
leave, okay?
Okay.
You be careful, you.
We will.
(SIGHS)
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
MADDIE: Is he okay now?
Yeah.
I mean, I think so.
What happened last night
scared the shit out of me.
I can't handle
this kind of shit.
I can't even watch a scary movie
without hiding under the fucking
blankets, it's ridiculous.
I know.
What happened?
Honestly, I have no idea.
MADDIE: Was it his dad?
I don't know.
Why is he so uptight about all
this?
I'm not really
sure I should tell.
I mean, it's a really personal
and sensitive topic for Richie.
Cassie, this didn't
just happen to Richie,
this happened to all of us.
I know.
Look, I'm not gonna say a word.
Well, um,
I guess his dad
went all Amityville
and tried to kill his mom and
Richie.
No way.
Yeah.
And Richie, he never
told me all the details
and I don't want to push,
but I guess he saved his
mom and killed his dad.
I mean, his dad like
tried to kill his mom,
so he shot him.
And even worse, his mom,
she's in a mental institution
and she has been ever since.
She won't even talk to Richie.
That's fucking nuts.
Yeah.
Look, Maddie, please, don't,
don't say anything to anyone,
all right?
Not even Cameron.
At least until we
figure this out.
Look, I'm not gonna
say a word, I promise.
Thank you.
MADDIE: Of course.

Hi.
You're home early.

Maybe I can make some of
that stuff up to you now, huh?
Yeah, maybe.
Hey, I heard some, some noises.
(LAUGHS) From the bedroom,
I hope.
Maybe.
I, I don't know.
Okay.
How was your day?
It was fine.
I mean, it wasn't bad.
Hey, I should go.
I should go check on
whatever that was.

This is my home.
You are not welcome here.
Oh.
You wanna do a little dance?
Huh?
You wanna do a little (MUMBLES)?

Come over, Cher.
What's up?
There's a spirit, he been
messing with me a little bit.
Okay, I can make

Okay, Cher.

WOMAN: She's got a gun!
There's, there's a woman
with gun, she's coming.
(RICHIE SIGHS)
(BANGING)
What was that?
I don't know.
Did you leave the
bedroom door open?
I don't think so.
(BANGS)
Hey, be careful.
What are you doing?
Shh.
Just...
Okay?
I'm just trying not to
take any chances, okay?
Yeah, in case someone
throws you a baseball?
Baby, what if there
was someone in our house?
Yeah, or a draft.
GIRL: Did you use
all the hot water again?
I just showered!
Yeah, for like half an hour.
So I enjoy a hot shower, sue me.
Whatever.
(CLATTERING)
GIRL: Was that you?
No, that was from the basement.
Is Dad home?
I don't think so.
So who else would it be?
I don't know.
(SCRAPING)
You should go look.
No way, you're older,
you go look.
Dude, I am freezing.
I just got out of the shower or
I would.
Let's go together.
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
I don't see anything.
Let's go.
(BUZZING)
(CHIMES TINKLING)
So tell me, what's so urgent?
Something happened
at work last night.
What?
I did a couple readings
and I got everybody
together to do a seance.
(MUMBLES) I don't know.
Something pushed through.
Like a spirit?
Your guess is as good as mine.
But I'll tell you one thing.
Whatever it was, it was stronger
than anything
I've ever felt before.
Stronger than, well, you know.
Huh.
Took me over.
Went through me,
went through all of us.
It's like we set it free or
something.
No human spirit
can do such a thing.
It must be a, a demon
or a poltergeist.
Did you have your items?
I always do, Cher.
This is too layers for
most to push through.
See?
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
No.
I hope you are right.
I hope you're wrong.
(BANGING)
Be careful, baby.
I'm armed!
I'm warning you!
CASSIDY: Baby, what's going on?
I don't, I don't know.
The cupboards are...
Can you hear me?
They're...
It's the fucking gypsy woman
you brought into our house.
She...
Baby?
It could be your dad.
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
(LAUGHS) Baby,
what are you doing?
Are you okay?
I'm, uh,
I'm going to go see my mom.
Are you sure?
You understand that
what happened last time
will likely happen again?
I know.
Jeez, the last time you went,
you were messed up for days.
I just really hope
that you're putting
some thought into this.
Yeah, I know.
I know, I know, babe,
but I need to go.
Baby.
I don't know.
I do.
I'll see you soon.
(KISSES)
(CASSIDY SIGHS)
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
Oh no.
What the fuck?
(CAMERA CLICKING)
(PHONE BUZZING)
ZEB: Hello?
VESNA: Did you get my texts yet?
ZEB: Not yet.
You see what is
going on with me, Cher?
Oui.
What the hell do I do?
I'm not sure
but let me find out.
You stay safe now, you hear?
All right.
(LAUGHS)
(SIGHS)
Hi.
Hey, Richie, how are you?
Doing fine.
How's my mom doing?
She's still the same, sweetie.
Just be gentle, okay?
Okay, thank you.
(SLOW MUSIC)
Hi, Mom.
(SHARON MUMBLING)
It's your son.
Richie.
You.
You're not my son.
I think...
I think he's back.
I mean, not him exactly but
his energy or something.
I need to know
what happened, Mom.
(SHARON GROANING)
I need to know what
really happened to him.
Please.
I thought maybe,
maybe you'd want to help me.
Like I helped you.
I guess not.
(SIGHS) It's fine.
I'm sorry, Mom.
I'm sorry.
(SHARON SCREAMS)
You are him.
NURSE: You should go, Richie.
SHARON: You are him.
I'm sorry.
- She needs her rest.
- He is you, you are him.
NURSE: She needs to settle down.
He is you, he is you, he is you,
you are him, you are him,
you are him,
you are him, you are him,
you, you are.
So it looks like Abaddon or
Agramon.
Maybe even (MUMBLES).
Not very good news, I'm afraid.
How would we find out?
In due time.
There are always signs.
I'm gonna call the
people at the party.
No, no.
There's a chance
they're not involved.
How would they know?
(PHONE RINGING)
Hello?
Hey, Cher, it's me, Vesna.
I'm gonna put you on speaker
phone.
Hey, I was just thinking of
calling you.
I kind of had a feeling.
Any trouble over there?
Yeah.
You could say that.
We're actually at a hotel right
now.
Can't really afford to
stay much longer though
but I'm not going home.
I got you, Cher,
but the kind of stuff we're
dealing with,
I don't think it
matters where you go.
I need to see you, Cher.
Okay.
When?
No matter, but the sooner the
better.
Oh, and I'd like to
bring my partner.
He gonna like your place.
Really?
Why?
He's special.
More so than me, Cher.
Okay, yeah.
I'd, I'd rather not go
later on though.
You know, after dark?
How's about five?
All right.
Bye bye.
Hope you're ready for this.
(SIREN WAILING)
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
Dad?
(VOICE ECHOING)
(SIGHS) I don't have
a good feeling on this.
Me neither.
Suppose we have no other chance.
Still gonna follow you
no matter where you go.
(CAR HONKING)
Rich, Cass, this is the partner
I been telling you about.
Zeb.
Nice to meet you.
Well, I hope you can
get rid of this thing.
I hope so too, Cher.
Let's go inside.
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
It is not here.
RICHIE: What?
(SNAPPING)
Zeb?
Where exactly were
you when it happened?
I was sitting right here.
CASSIDY: And I was
here, next to Richie.
And what did it say?
She, she said something
like "It'll be different
this time, Richie."
But it did not sound like her.
In the voice of your father?
Not exactly, no.
It didn't quite sound
like her either.
Your father, was he a bad man?
You could say that, sure.
If you don't mind,
what did he do?
Um, I really prefer
not to talk about it.
It happened a long time ago,
I was 12, so.
Baby, you have to.
Okay, um.
Long story short,
one week he went nuts.
He got violent, he tried
to kill my mom and me.
And one night when he was
strangling her,
I shot him with his own gun.
(GUN BANGS)
What have you done?
She said that I was becoming
like him
and I lost her too.
She's been in a mental
institution ever since.
I'm sorry, Richie.
I am convinced it is not your
father we are dealing with.
But I think I know who it is.
Who?
His name is Agramon.
And he's powerful,
so powerful he can fully
manifest.
And he feeds on your fear.
Jesus, what are you talking
about?
You mean like a demon or
something?
No, not like a demon,
but one of the very worst.
Some people say Baal is
the devil's right hand.
I will argue that
Agramon is his left hand
and that the devil is
left-handed.
So, what?
We fight back.
We stay together,
we stay strong.
I think I saw him today.
What?
In Pontiac, I was on
my way to pick up Cassie
and it looked like my dad.
I followed him but
he kinda disappeared.
He's already powerful
enough he can manifest,
then we are in for a
battle and we should leave.
Now?
Vesna.
A holy place.
Follow me.
And we, your fear is
what strengthens him.
How's this shit not gonna?
I'm sorry, this stuff
not going to scare us?
Oh, it will, my babe.
It will.
But what he's saying is
you got to feed the monster
as little as possible.
You know, starve the fuck.
Hope he moves on, you know?
Exactly.
Okay, but isn't there something,
I mean something else, like
something more we could do?
Besides essentially
hoping that he gets bored?
First, you should call all
your friends.
He may or may not
have gone after them yet
but when you resist,
he most likely will.
I'm sorry, they're
in danger too?
Oui.
And wherever you go, he
will likely follow you.
So.
The motel isn't safe.
I'm afraid nowhere is
all that safe right now.
I will talk to some friends
and see what else we can do,
but for now you stay
strong, you stay together.
You keep that strength
from him, okay?
This is the key.
(DOOR CLOSING)
Hey, babe, how was your day?
(KISSES) It was pretty good
actually.
Just got promoted to...
(CLATTERING)
What was that?
I don't know.
Is anyone here?
No.
(SAFE BEEPING)
(SCRAPING)
What the hell?
Is anything missing?
I don't know.
Cam, this is nuts.
(CRASHING)
Babe, I'm scared.
Everything is gonna be okay,
baby.
(PHONE RINGING)
Hey.
Hey.
So about the
party the other night.
Yeah.
And how it ended.
Something came through.
Well, that explains all this
shit.
CASSIDY: What?
It looked like somebody
broke in, nothing's missing,
and it happened
while we were here.
Shit.
You guys should come over.
To your place?
I don't think so.
You think it matters
where you are?
I see your point.
I'll be there in 15.
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
(VIDEO SQUEAKING)
(DOOR SLAMS)
(ECHOING VOICE WHISPERING)
I know you're here.
I can hear him, I can feel him.
The depths of hell on you,
Carter.
I'm not afraid of you.
You can take my life.
But not my son.
(SCREAMING)
Just a dream, Sharon.
Sharon, it's just a dream!
He was there, he was there!
It was just a dream,
it was just a dream.
No!
(GASPING)
It was a dream.
(HUMMING)
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
Demon.
You are not welcome here.
(RATTLING)
(ECHOING VOICE WHISPERING)
I am not afraid of you, demon.
You don't like that, do you?
(RATTLING)
So let me get this right.
If we aren't scared of
him, he can't hurt us.
I don't think it's quite that
simple.
What they said was the more
scared we are,
the stronger it gets.
But, um, they did give us this.
It is the amulet for St.
Michael.
It represents courage.
You guys believe in that stuff?
Like you, Richie?
Come on, man, you of all people?
At this point, Cam,
what do I have to lose?
No, I'm with you on that.
Do you guys have any more?
No.
But we do have these.
They should help.
What are you gonna do?
I don't know.
(KNOCKING)
Honey, is there
anybody else coming over?
Hang on.
CAMERON: I got your back.
RICHIE: Who's there?
Who's there?
SHARON: Open the door, please!
It's Mom.
I'm gonna open it.
CAMERON: You crazy?
CASSIDY: Richie, don't.
Mom?
Get inside.
Come inside.
He, he came for me.
What happened?
(SHARON STAMMERING)
Mom?
Richie.
What?
How did she get out?
I don't know.
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
(GASPS)
(KNOB SQUEAKS)
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
I'm still trying to
figure it out, Richie.
What are you doing here?
Who to pass to?
You or your mom?
What are you talking about?
You know exactly what I mean,
Richie.
No.
No, I don't.
And...
Nothing,
nothing passed, you,
you did this.
That's all there is to
it, there's nothing else.
I saw it.
I'm pretty sure it passed to
you.
Admit it.
You felt the urge.
If you were to spare
me, I could teach you.
We'd be unstoppable.
Richie.
Don't let him fool you like he
fooled me.
He's trying to infect your mind.
(LAUGHS) Look at him.
He's done.
Don't let him in.
Don't let him in, you're
stronger than you think, Richie.
Richie.
Listen to her?
She hasn't been there for you.
She's the one who's been
accusing you.
- Shut up.
- Richie.
Shut up, shut up, shut up,
shut up,
shut up, shut up, shut up, shut
up.
Dead.
You're dead.
So are you.
(RICHIE GASPING)
Oh my god!
(RICHIE PANTING)
(SLOW MUSIC)
Where's my mom?
What?
My mom, where'd she go?
She was right there.
Mom?
Hey, I'm sorry.
I should have called when she
got here.
Did she come back?
My mom.
My mom, Sharon.
Sharon Stann.
I can't find her, did she come
back?
WOMAN: Sharon?
She's in her room.
No.
No, no, no, no.
She must have gotten out or
something
because she was here.
WOMAN: I gave her breakfast
and meds this morning myself.
Is, is this Richie?
Yes?
Are you absolutely certain?
WOMAN: Yes.
She's been here all night,
Richie.
(PHONE BEEPS)
Um.
So she's there.
They said she never left.
How is that even possible?
Who the hell did we let
into our house last night?
I think we both know who.
You know, this is so fucked up!
These amulets.
What was all this for?
So what, this thing can
shape-shift
into anything it wants at any
time?
How the hell are we supposed
to know who's real or not?
(CARDS RUSTLING)
Next card up all gonna be you.
WOMAN: What was that?
Gotta redo card.
Something not right.
I'm guessing the card
don't want to show today.
Maybe we can do something else.
I mean, I really just
wanted the regular reading.
But I guess.
It'll be on the house.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
Something wrong?
Not you, Cher.
Just something not right.
(SCREAMS)
Oh my god.
What is going on?
I guess that's all I needed to
see
to know today's not the day.
(STATIC BUZZING)
AGRAMON: You're all going to
die.
You're sure it's Agramon?
All the signs points towards it.
That's not good.
And it is already strong,
strong enough to manifest.
So there's no other way out?
Not that I can see.
We stay and we fight.
Well, I have something.
Something that might work.
This.
This is the demon killer.
And you think this will work?
I do.
It's supposed to have been
blessed by two disciples
and they say it's what killed
Dracula.
WOMAN: (mumbles) The
budget meeting very soon.
Of course.
WOMAN: Yeah.
Maybe Mike and the guys can
meet...
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
Sorry, excuse me.
Rich.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
(SQUEAKING)
RICHIE: Can we talk for a
minute?
Sure, Richie, what's up?
You all right?
Look like you seen a ghost.
(RICHIE LAUGHS)
I need to take the rest of
today off.
If that's okay, I'll make
it up to you this weekend.
Sure.
Is there anything I can help
with?
Trust me, Ben, you don't want
to.
I don't know what that means
but, uh,
I'll take your word for it.
Thank you.
Yeah, no problem.
Hey, um, I'm here to
see Mrs. Sharon Stann.
Miss Stann, how are you?
All right.
Mind signing there for me?
Yeah.
You know, she's had a rough
time these last couple days.
So I'll go in there with you,
okay?
Okay, yeah, thank you.
Hey, Sharon.
It's Cassie.
Well, god, things have
gotten pretty crazy.
Is there anything that you can
tell us?
Please, Sharon.
I don't want it to use
Richie's dad against us.
People's lives are at stake
here, Sharon!
Okay, she doesn't
need more stress.
Cassidy, you're gonna have
to calm down or leave, okay?
You don't understand.
He is after us and he's getting
stronger.
I said calm down.
You listen to me.
It passed from Carter to Richie.
He's here to claim him.
Best get away.
No, no, no.
You see, that's not an option
for me.
I'm gonna stand by Richie
just like you should have!
Cassidy, let's go, come on.
You're all gonna die!
Do you hear me?
You all gonna die!
He is him, him is he.
He is him, him is he.
He is him, him is he.
He is him, him is he.
Look, I don't know what's
going on here
but this isn't acceptable.
You're right, none
of this is acceptable!
(KNOCKING)
(KISSES)
I think we got a shot at
ending this.
Oh yeah?
Mm-hmm.
You say we have a
shot at ending it, huh?
Yes.
With this.
Oh, wow.
This legit?
I got it from Killian, so I'd
say so.
I bet you been around, my babe.
I'm gonna give Cassidy a call.
Tell her we have the good news.
(PHONE BUZZING)
Hey.
Bonjour.
We might have something to help
put an end
to this (MUMBLES) once and for
all.
(CAR ALARM BEEPING)
AGRAMON: Time to die.
CAMERON: What the fuck?
Don't be scared, my ass, baby.
I'm freaking out right now!
Babe, we have to be strong.
Remember, this thing, this
thing feeds off of our fear.
I don't know if I can right
now, okay?
You have to.
AGRAMON: I'm going to kill you.
What the?
I can't, I can't do
this, I can't do this.
(CAR BEEPING)
CAMERON: Gotta walk.
Screw this.
(BANGING)
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
(FLOOR CREAKING)
(SCRAPING)
(ECHOING VOICE WHISPERING)
(BANGING)
Stop.
What the hell is going on?
You killed me, Richie.
Your own father.
You were killing Mom.
I was angry.
But you know I would never kill
her.
That's bullshit.
If I wouldn't have shot you,
you would've killed her.
No, Richie.
I'm your father.
And I love you.
I would never hurt you or your
mother.
We should go to her.
She needs to see us together.
It'll help her.
Come on.
You're not my father.
Yes, I am.
No.
I know who you are.
And I'm not gonna deal with you.
Demon.
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
Richie.
Would you hurt a little girl?
You doing all right, you?
No, no, no actually.
I just saw my dead father.
And then it wasn't him
and I tried to hit it
and it disappeared.
There was just some smoke.
It looks like we got here just
in time.
I'd say so.
So what's your idea?
Not so much an idea
but now we have this.
We got it from a close friend
who knows a thing or two about
demons.
And he calls this the demon
killer.
And that'll work?
If Killian says it does,
I will take his word for it.
Cool.
That's, that's good.
Because this thing, not so much.
(LAUGHS)
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
My gun.
It's inside.
Well, what good is it there?
Hello, it's in the frickin'
safe.
Well, that sucks.
Don't get mad at me.
You're the one who told me I
had to start using the safe
because you wanted to have
frickin' kids.
Look, I know what we said, okay?
But right now, that's not gonna
help us.
Hang on.
My nerves are shot.
Yeah, this is some messed up
shit.
Can we please go back
to Cassie and Richie's?
You know, as screwed up as
that sounds,
I think that's probably the
best...
(CLATTERING)
Shh.
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
Only way in is through the
front door.
You're sure this'll work?
No, but it is the best we got.
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
Show yourself.
(ECHOING VOICE WHISPERING)
I'm not afraid of you.
No, no, no, no, no.
I, I faced you before.
And I'll face you again.
Your reign of terror is over.
I belong to God now.
I belong to God.
My soul is his.
Maybe so.
But I'm not done with you.
You can still feel pain.
(LAUGHS)
And when I'm done with you,
Richie's next.
And trust me when I say this.
His soul is up for grabs.
He'll stand up to you.
Maybe.
At first.
You pushing him away all
these years has made him weak.
What a failure of a mother you
are.
You can't even protect your own
son.
He's stronger than you think.
Yeah.
That's why you're here.
(LAUGHS)
You can't get to him.
You're weak.
Am I?
(GROANING)
(VIDEO BUZZING)
Do we even know if he'll show
up?
Oui.
Eventually.
I can't just sit here
and stare at a door.
Anyone else hungry?
No.
No.
RICHIE: No.
All right, well,
I'm gonna go get myself
something to eat then.
(KNOCKING)
MAN: Hey, let us in!
(BANGING)
Shit, that's my friend.
- Whoa, whoa, whoa.
- Hey, wait.
How do we even know it's them?
Look, I got this.
Is everything okay?
I don't know.
Take this and put it in your
hand.
What?
Now you.
Are you guys okay?
Give me your hand.
Yeah.
Just tension overload
from all this craziness.
Oh my god.
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
(SQUEAKING)
Hey, who's here?
Tiff, who's here?
What?
I saw someone come into your
room
and seriously, do not lie to me.
If you're smoking pot with
Claire again, I'm telling Mom.
What are you talking about?
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
Who's that?
Dad?
What, sweetie?
GIRL: Dad, there's
someone in the house.
Dad?
Hey, sweetie.
I think they're looking for ya.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
Oh shit.
(SCARY MUSIC)
GIRL: Go!
(MUMBLING)
RICHIE: How long is this
gonna take?
A couple of days, a week at
the most.
Okay.
Well, I got to work.
Yeah.
Me too.
I think we better stick
together.
Yeah, well.
I live in the real world with
real bills,
so I can't lose my job.
Sure.
I'll be back after work.
Maddie?
Feel free to stay as long as you
like.
Cam, you can pop back over after
work.
Until we figure this thing out.
Baby.
Promise me you'll be careful.
Yeah.
Hey, wait up.
Wanna give me a lift to my car?
Yeah, no problem.
Haven't heard anything in a
while.
He's gone?
Well, I'm not opening it.
Did you think?
I don't know.
I mean, it looked...
I never even saw Mom.
Okay, um, hang on, just.
Okay.
TIFFANY: Wait.
Okay.
(GASPS)
Hey, don't, Tiffany.
Tiff.
Tiff, you're fine, come here.
Okay.
(CRYING)
I know.
But hey, we have to go, okay?
We have to go, okay?
Okay.
Sleeping in today, huh?
That's a first.
(CRASHES)
(SCREAMS)
Oh my god!
Oh my god, Sharon, no!
WOMAN: What happened?
Get us security.
Saint Mary's south ward.
We got an apparent homicide.
No, she cold.
She been dead a while.
Hey, you gonna be okay?
Yeah.
You?
I guess we'll see, right?
Be safe.
You too.
NURSE: This has never
happened before.
And you were staffed all night?
Yes.
And we have the footage of
them doing rounds, I just...
I just don't understand.
I'll need a copy of this.
Sure.
Anything else you can think of?
No.
I mean, I mean I had a strange
call
from Richie the other night.
But it's always strange dealing
with them,
so I didn't think anything of
it.
Richie.
That's her son, right?
Mm-hmm.
Hey, Simmons.
Yeah?
DETECTIVE: Come here.
What you got?
Look at this.
SIMMONS: What was that?
I don't know.
She said she'd never
seen it do this before.
Who had access to this last
night?
Security and the
night nurses, I suppose.
Gonna need a list of
everyone that worked last night
as soon as possible, please.
Sure.
I'll get it off the schedule for
you.
Visitors, deliveries,
anyone that came in and out.
And what about this Richie
thing?
He says she came over late
at night a couple nights before
but she was here all night.
It was strange.
Even his wife came and said
something.
I'm not sure what it was,
but it upset Sharon.
Can you pull the
footage from that night?
Sure, I can get that for
you, but I don't see why.
Yeah, I know she was here.
I gave her her meds that
morning at 6:00 a.m.
when I came in to do rounds.
Can we look?
Sure.
Hold on a sec.
Let me just.
Yeah, I'm sorry.
I don't know what's going on
here.
I'll be needing that too.
As a matter of fact,
just give me the last
two weeks of footage.
I still don't understand.
I mean, this, this has
never happened before.
I apologize.
(CLATTERING)
(SAFE BEEPING)

(LAUGHING)
Hello?
Richie?
RICHIE: Yeah?
I'm afraid I have some bad news.
Okay.
Your mom passed away last night.
What, how?
NURSE: We don't know.
Oh my god.
I'm so sorry, Richie.
Look, I know you didn't
feel close to your mom
because of her condition,
but I know how she was when you
left.
And I know she loved you.
I'm sorry.
In the next few days,
you'll hear from the police.
They're trying to figure
out what happened.
Do you remember the other night,
when you said she came over?
Well, the footage is all messed
up.
From that night and even last
night.
What do you mean?
It's static.
And the screen is blurred out.
If I didn't know any better,
I'd say it was tampered with.
Are you saying she
might have been killed?
No, I'm not saying that.
But it's very strange, to
say the least, you know?
Okay.
If you don't mind,
I'd like to come and collect her
things?
The police are taking most
everything.
You'll have to get it from them.
Okay.
Richie.
Look, I'm so sorry for your
loss.
Hey, Dave, can we talk for a
second?
DAVE: Sure.
Give us a moment.
Of course.
(RICHIE SIGHS)
Um.
So my mom just passed.
Oh, man.
Yeah, I'm sorry to hear that,
man.
Mm-hmm.
So if it's not too much to ask,
I'd...
I'd like a couple days off?
Of course.
Family first, Richie.
Family first.
Yeah.
Thank you.
Yeah, no problem, man.
(SLOW MUSIC)
(KNOCKING)
I'll go.
Detective Blackwell, LLPD.
This is Detective Simmons.
Is Richard Stann home?
You mean Richie?
No.
He's at work.
You're his wife.
No.
I'm a friend.
I am.
I take it you haven't talked
to Richard, Richie, today?
Why do you say that?
His mother was
found dead this morning.
Oh my god.
I'm sorry.
We don't have a lot of
details at this point,
but we're not ruling out foul
play.
Um, I have a feeling
that this is going to
sound really crazy, but...
We are having some really
strange things happening here.
It's a long story.
Time is something I do have.
Okay, you know, come inside.
Let's have a seat.
(RICHIE SIGHS)
(SCARY MUSIC)
I know that this all sounds
insane
but, you know, when you look
around here,
you will find a perfectly
normal couple, okay?
Blocking demons off with
salt to their house.
Yeah, I have to admit,
it sounds pretty wild.
Do you believe in God?
Yeah, sure.
I mean, I believe in some God.
Not sure what that matters
or what that means.
Do you believe in spirituality?
Sure.
So then you believe in spirits
and now it's not so far-fetched,
no?
What I've found is people do
bad things,
sometimes because of what they
believe
and sometimes because they're
just flat out sick people.
But that's it.
It's people.
It is people under the
influence.
See, there's a spiritual
world war going on out there.
(KNOCKING)
Is anyone going to answer that?
(CRYING)
That thing killed our parents.
What?
It killed them!
Baby, it's getting worse.
That thing, it just killed
Natalie's mom and dad too!
Okay.
I don't know what your plan is
but we need to step it up.
(PHONE DIALING)
ZEB: Oui?
Do you need a plan B?
Mr. Stann, I apologize for
taking up so much of your time.
(SLOW MUSIC)
Killian.
What do you have for me?
Well, I was trying
to think of what to do.
And then I remembered
Padre Martinez found this
at the Gate of Erebus.
He was convinced that the
demon was trapped in it.
It could be nothing,
but it could be worth it.
Well, from everything
I have seen and heard,
I believe we have opened
Agramon's gate right here.
So we need every bullet
in our gun possible,
if you know what I mean.
Well, I'm glad I could be of
help.
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
(SCREAMS)
Get away, get away!
AGRAMON: You're all going to
die.
(KNOCKING)
RICHIE: Who's there?
SHARON: Richie, open the door.
It's Mom.
It is not her.
(KNOCKING)
MAN: Richie.
Richie.
Listen up.
Open this door right now!
Can we, can we keep it outside?
That is plan A, yeah.
Okay, what's plan B?
Let's hope plan A works.
Maybe we can
do this another way.
- Listen to this.
- Yeah.
Richard John Stann
killed his father in 1999.
He was 12.
He shot him.
It says his father had been
acting strange
and had become violent
and in one of his rages,
attempted to kill his wife Sharon
when Richard came to her
aid and shot his father.
Are you completely
sure about this, Killian?
It is the least
confrontational way.
He's strong already.
He's going to break through
and enter eventually.
ZEB: Yeah, but this doesn't
feel safe.
At this point, my
friend, nothing is safe.
(KNOCKING)
Shit.
Taking a sleeping pill.
I'm gonna be done with this.
You guys can handle
this shit on your own.
Maddie, are you nuts?
I'd rather be asleep
than getting ripped apart.
I'm literally considering
this whole bottle.
No, that's not going to
happen, okay?
Have you lost your mind?
I'm done with this.
Hello?
Who's there?
DETECTIVE: Detective
Blackwood again.
Can we come in?
VESNA: Give me your hand.
What?
You're good.
(SCARY MUSIC)
This is going to sound crazy,
but I think I have to do this.
Have to do what?
We open the seal, we let
it in with me, and I kill it.
Why don't we do what I said?
I think it's safer.
Besides, the demon
can't lie to us.
You wanna lose the other eye?
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
Cam should have
been here by now.
So much crazy things are
happening,
who knows what's going on.
I hope he's okay.
He hasn't answered
any of my calls.
Hey, focus your energy
on here and now, okay?
Okay.
It's ready.
The last time we tried
talking to the dead,
this whole damn mess started.
I sincerely hope you
know what you're doing.
As do I.
This is the least
confrontational way to get him.
It's worth a shot.
(HANDS RUBBING)
Spirit, oh spirit.
Come to me.
Come through me.
Who are you?
(ECHOING VOICE WHISPERING)
Hey.
It's me.
I'm fine.
Just help me up.
(SCARY MUSIC)
(SCREAMING)
KILLIAN: Cannot lie to me,
demon.
What the hell, I thought you,
I thought you said it wasn't my
dad.
It isn't.
You said it couldn't lie.
Wait, wait.
VESNA: In your room.
Okay, that's enough, come back.
That wasn't no demon.
It was Carter.
Your daddy's here.
Yeah, can I take so many pills?
No, no way.
We're getting out of this
alive, do you hear me?
It's just a little
overwhelming, you know?
So what now?
Now,
I guess we kill it.
(KNOCKING)
CAMERON: Let me in, quickly.
Quickly!
Where have you been, man?
(SIZZLING)
(SCARY MUSIC)
Shit!
Stay back.
Demon, fight me.
I remember you from my place.
You're not as tough as you
like to pretend you are.
(GRUNTS)
(VESNA SHUSHING)
Take it easy, Cher.
Everything gonna be fine.
