- You know, I'm always telling
you that's the problem.
That is the problem.
You know what it is that
we're talking about,
this massive and all this other manure,
and that apparently ...
- Well, if you don't
believe in God, Brandon,
then how do you explain the
creation of the universe?
- How do you explain
the creation of God?
- He's always existed.
- So has the universe.
- Bullshit.
Why, why is that harder to
accept than an infinite God?
- There is no way that intelligent life
could have formed so quickly
without some kind of
divine intervention.
- Oh, come on, Roger, now
you can't honestly count
someone like Jim here as
intelligent life, can you?
- That's good, I'm impressed, Brandon.
I mean, that's almost witty.
Almost.
I'm gonna get another drink.
- Like father, like son, huh?
- Oh, let's drink now.
I just wanna go drink, not dance.
- You just don't know
when to quit, do you?
- We're gonna have
to take this party elsewhere.
- I'm out.
- Michael, I'm waiting.
- Okay.
- How does he do this?
Speak of the devil.
- Don't.
I've had enough religious
discussion sfor one night.
- What?
- When did you guys get here?
- Just walked in, man.
- Yeah, what,
and you leave me out there
with Linda's law school chum?
- Sorry.
- Priorities, man.
- Yeah.
- Jack first, hello second.
- Yeah.
- Whatcha drinkin"?
- Whatever's handy.
- Hey Jim, look, everyone
is kind of fancy out there.
You sure we're not a
little underdressed?
- No, man, I think they're
a little overdressed.
- Yeah.
- Alright.
- Speaking of which, who's the
guy in the $800 dollar suit?
- He's Brandon Sinclair.
- Of the Sinclair Vineyards?
- Mm hm, Linda used to date him.
- I'm impressed.
- So was he.
- Jealous?
- Jim?
- Hi, Lloyd, hi, Mike.
- Hi.
- Well, I guess we'll go
rinse out some things.
Sorry, excuse me.
- Are you alright?
- I told you he was an as*h*le.
- I know you did.
You gonna come back out to the party?
- In a minute.
Look, you just, can you
just go play hostess,
and I'll try to come up
with some clean jokes, okay?
- Okay.
Jim.
I love you.
- I know.
- How can you believe in spirits
if you don't believe in God or Satan?
- There's been evidence
of their existence,
eyewitness accounts, photographs,
recordings, you name it,
and I've contacted some of them.
- With what, a wee-gee board?
- Wee-ja.
- What?
- It's pronounced, Wee-ja, not wee-gee.
It comes from the French
and German words for yes,
oui and ja, Ouija.
And this is a planchette.
- I don't care what you call it, dude.
It's just like a game,
like checkers, or chess.
- For your information, dude,
the Ouija board has been
around since recorded history.
It was in wide use as
far back as 540 B.C.
- I guess if Barbie dolls
had been around for that long
you'd be talking to them too.
- Beats talking to you.
- Well, that's ‘cause I use words
with more than one syllable.
- Oh, would you like to talk about that?
- Yeah.
- Um, look, guys.
Why don't we, can we play with the game?
That would be fun.
- Alright.
Now, for the best results,
the Ouija should be used by two people,
preferably a man and a woman,
and it shouldn't be sitting on a table.
It should sit on our knees
so that there's as much
body contact as possible.
Also, the two people should
have clean, pure systems,
so that the energy flowing
from us to the planchette
is as strong as it can be.
- Are you saying that the spirits
actually come through our bodies?
- Oh, don't worry, it's perfectly safe.
- I don't think I quite
understand what you mean
by a clean system, though.
- Someone who doesn't
smoke or drink, like you.
Care to give it a try?
- Oh, no, I don't think so.
- Come on, come on, come on!
- Oh jeez, come on, please?
- Alright.
- Alright, good.
- Alright!
- Good.
I don't smoke either, and I
haven't been drinking tonight.
So together, we should be able
to make a clear, strong contact.
- I'll bet he wants a
clear, strong contact.
- Alright, one more
thing before we begin.
The spirits are lousy spellers
and a lot of them like to lie,
so just to play it safe, I'm
gonna try to contact David,
a spirit of a little boy who died
about 30 years ago.
- You mean you've actually
talked to this spirit before?
- Yeah, I've contacted
him several times.
For some reason he is connected
to this particular board.
- Why is that?
- Well, I don't know,
really, it's just that
every Ouija board seems to
have its own dominant spirit.
Maybe it's because this board
was made the day David died.
- How do you know when
that board was made?
- David told me.
- How do you know he wasn't lying?
You said they liked to lie.
Didn't you, didn't you say that?
- Uh,
I'd really like to try this.
- Alright.
David, are you here?
Can you hear me?
- Can I talk to him?
- Yeah, go ahead.
- How old are you, David?
- Uh, thank you very much, goodbye.
- Why did you stop?
- Oh, that wasn't David.
- Well then who was it?
- I don't know.
Like I said, they like to lie sometimes.
- How do you know it wasn't David?
- Well, David was 10
when he died, not eight.
Besides, we have a special signal
that no other spirit knows.
- Ooh, that's a little spooky.
- It's a little stupid.
- It's a lot stupid.
- David, can you hear me?
Would you like to talk to us?
David, is that you?
- It's doing a figure eight.
- That's David's signal.
Would you like to speak to him?
- Yeah, I would.
David?
I don't know what to say to him.
- David, do you know me?
David, will you return
to the living one day?
- Reincarnation?
- That's what they all say.
David.
Will you be able to choose
your parents when you return?
- Yes.
- Bullshit.
- Why?
You can't believe you were stupid enough
to pick your parents?
- Hey, I don't talk to cardboard.
- Be careful,
Jim, you're upsetting David.
- What's he gonna do, haunt me?
- David, are you alright?
- Yeah, he's alright, he's
just a little dead, that's all.
- Shut up, Jim!
David, are you alright?
- Brandon, it's really racing.
- Yeah, maybe he's late for
the last flight back to limbo.
- What was that noise?
- It sounded like a g*nsh*t.
Excuse me, folks, pardon me.
Oh, man, multiple sadness.
Who owns the red Cobra?
- I do, why?
- Your tires are history, bud.
- Uh oh.
- Thanks a lot, Morar.
- What, this is my fault?
- Those are brand new tires,
now how do you explain it?
- I don't know man, maybe
your buddy Casper did it.
- That's right, because
you made him angry.
- Then why didn't he flatten my tire?
- Why, because I was in
control of the board.
He held me responsible.
- You're crazy.
- You're drunk.
And you're a loser, in the
great family tradition.
- Jim!
Jim.
Well, thank you very much
for ruining the party.
- You're welcome, but don't worry.
The night is still young.
- Are you serious?
Look at me, I am furious
with you right now.
- I know, and you're so
gorgeous when you're angry.
- Look, don't joke when
you're this close to death.
- Okay, okay, look, I'm
sorry about the party,
and I'm sorry about Brandon,
and I'm sorry about the
crisis in the Middle East.
- Alright, that's it.
- Come on, come on.
You knew you were taking a
chance when you invited him.
I know your heart was
in the right place.
It just didn't work out.
- Jim, you promised me
that you weren't gonna
start anything with him.
- I kept my promise, he started it.
What did you want me to do,
just sit there and take it?
- No, uh, I guess not.
- I really am sorry.
- I know.
Why do I love you so much?
- 'Cause I make you laugh.
- Yeah, Woody
Allen makes me laugh.
- I know, but I'm sexier.
- Whatcha doing?
- I lost my hammer.
Use mine.
- Sucker, you could have k*lled me.
- Nah, then you'd come
back and you'd haunt me
and flatten my tires
and stuff, ha ha ha!
- I'm gonna flatten you.
Sit down, sit down.
Linda's putting Twinkies
in my lunch again.
- Ms. Brewster,
this is Dr. Gelineau's office calling.
We have the results of your
test back from the lab.
You can call us today until 12:30.
- Hello, Linda, this is Brandon.
I just realized I left my
Ouija here the other night.
Could you bring it to class this Friday?
I'm having some friends over
Sunday and they want to use it.
Besides, I want to contact David
and see if he's calmed down yet.
Well, see you Friday, bye.
- David, are you here?
David, is that you?
David, do you remember me?
David, is it true
that you can really
choose your next parents?
Do you know why I'm asking?
The tests, they're positive.
I knew it.
David, would you like to, no, how come?
J.
Jim?
What, you don't like Jim?
Well, Jim's a really nice guy.
Boy, David, you sure know how
to hold a grudge, don't you?
David?
David, are you here?
David, where are you?
- Man, don't tell
me you bought that crap
with Brandon and that board.
- Oh, please, what do you,
do you see spaz written
on this man anywhere?
Please.
So how'd the board jump off their knees?
I dunno, man, he probably kicked it.
He always was about as clever
as a bag full of doorknobs.
- What is it with you guys, anyway?
- Linda, I guess.
At least that's when
the friendship ended.
- You guys were friends?
- Best friends.
When we were kids.
- Get outta here.
- Yeah, I practically grew
up in Brandon's house.
Both my folks were alcoholics, and, uh,
I didn't want to spend
too much time at home.
He thinks I stole Linda from him.
- Did you?
- No.
No.
I didn't even know they knew each other.
I'd been off at med school,
and when I met her,
they'd already broken up.
- You went to med school?
- Didn't know I was such a
multifaceted dude, did you?
- I didn't know you had more
than one brain cell, James.
What are you doing here?
Loafing, come on, lunch is over.
- No, daddy, please?
- Come on, I want to
finish the job this month.
- You are bringing me way down, bud.
- You're a lazy scumbag, you know that.
- Employment
means nothing to me, pal.
- Lloyd?
Hey, hey!
- David, are you here?
Well, it's nice to see you made it back.
R.
N.
G.
Ring?
My diamond ring?
You know where it is?
Where?
D.
R.
A.
N.
Dran.
You mean drain, like a sink drain?
Which sink, the kitchen?
The bathroom.
Thanks, David.
Oh!
Ow, darn.
There goes my nail.
Jesus Christ, don't ever
sneak up on me again.
f*ck!
sh*t.
f*ck.
What are you doing home?
- I live here.
What are you up to?
- I found my ring, remember the one
that I lost when we moved in, see?
- And that's such a monumental event
that you started swearing?
- What?
- Your language, babe,
I think gosh and darn
are the strongest words
I've ever heard you use.
And when did you take up plumbing?
- You're never gonna believe this.
David, he told--
- Uh, David who?
- You remember David, the
spirit of the little boy?
- Oh, I don't need to
hear this sh*t now.
- Jim, what's, what's the matter?
They closed the site early today.
There was an accident, and ...
Lloyd, uh ...
Lloyd got k*lled.
- Oh, god, what happened?
- There was a load of sheetrock,
and it wasn't secured properly,
and it fell.
- I've never liked you doing that job.
It is so dangerous.
- Everything is dangerous.
- Mr. Morar?
My name is Dewhurst.
Lieutenant Dewhurst.
- Police?
- Homicide.
- I didn't know Fairfield
had a homicide division.
-I'm it!
I'm also the b*mb squad
and the truancy division.
Do you like magic?
- What?
- Magic, you know, card tricks,
sawing ladies in half, magic.
- Yeah, I guess.
- Me too, I always
wanted to be a magician.
I don't have the hands for it, though,
not, uh, dextrous enough.
- Then how do you defuse bombs?
-I don't know, no one's
ever planted a b*mb here.
- What can I do for you, lieutenant?
- I'm investigating
Mr. Salvador's death.
You ever been to Vegas?
- No, why?
- They got these two guys
there, Sigmund and Roy.
I mean, they are the best
magicians I have ever seen,
without a doubt.
I mean, they do some
really amazing things.
You know, there's only
one thing I like better
than seeing a good magic trick.
It's trying to figure
out how it was done.
- Lieutenant, we're not really
talking about magic, here, are we?
- No.
I believe Mr. Salvador was m*rder*d.
The ropes holding the sheetrock
on the scaffolding were cut,
apparently with some kind of a hatchet.
- Are you sure?
- I'm afraid so.
Did he have any enemies?
- No, none that I know of.
- I understand that you were with him
when the sheet rock fell,
now, is there any chance
that the k*ller could
have been aiming for you?
- I don't think so.
- Are there
any other witnesses?
- No, no, I'm afraid not.
- And you lost your
hatchet that same day?
- I lost my hammer.
- But it has a blade on one side, right?
Have you found it yet?
- No, no, I had to buy a new one.
- Just vanished into thin air, huh?
- Nothing up my sleeve.
- Touche.
I'm sorry for intruding here.
- Jim, you didn't tell
me you were with him.
- I didn't think it was important.
- It is important, it
could have been you!
- Hey, it was just an accident.
That's all, it was just
an accident, can we go?
- Well, the lieutenant's
not too sure about that.
And neither am I.
David, did you cause that
accident at the site?
David, don't lie to me.
Are you still angry at Jim?
David?
David.
Hello?
- Where were you?
- What?
- You were supposed to bring
my Ouija by class yesterday.
- God, I am so sorry,
I completely forgot.
I went to the funeral with Jim.
- Oh.
Yeah, of course, uh ...
Well, how's he taking it?
- Well, he's sleeping right now.
- That figures.
- Brandon, that's not even fair.
- Isn't it?
Tell me, did he cry at the funeral?
Face it, Linda, the man
has ice in his veins.
I've known him since I was seven
and I've never seen him cry once,
not for anybody or anything.
- Brandon?
How many times have you contacted David?
- David?
Quite a few times, why?
- Have you ever seen him get that angry?
- No, never.
Look, did we just change
subjects when I wasn't looking?
- Brandon, I've been
getting a little worried.
I've been using the Ouija.
- Alone?
- Yeah, why?
- Linda, listen to me.
- Hello, hello?
Brandon?
Hello?
- Hello.
- Goddamnit, how many
times have I told you
not to sneak up on me?
- Look, I'm sorry, next
time I'll wear a bell.
- Why don't you just rattle
your f*cking head next time?
- What the hell's eating you?
-I don't know.
I don't know, I'm so scared,
I feel like I'm going crazy.
- It's alright, it's gonna be alright.
- I'm pregnant.
- Are you sure?
I mean, did you see a doctor?
- I already know.
I have an appointment on Monday.
And I've been having
morning sickness all week.
- Well, no wonder.
No wonder you're a nervous wreck.
You're not going crazy,
you're just becoming a mother.
Granted, it's almost the same thing.
- You're not upset?
- No, no.
Of course not.
- God, I love you.
- I know.
- And you love me.
Even though you don't know it,
I know it.
I'm giving the board
back to Brandon today.
I've already made up my mind, David.
There's nothing you can do about it.
Oh my god.
Dammit!
- Hey!
Hey!
Do you know Jim Morar?
- Yeah.
- Where is he?
Just go this way, you'll find him.
- What are you doing here?
- I tried to call
but your phone was dead.
- And you drove all the way
out here to tell me that?
- No, I want to ask you
something about Linda.
- You want to know if she snores.
- I should've known better.
- Hey, hey!
Jesus, man, you used to
have a sense of humor.
- Okay, can you be serious
for one minute, please?
- I'll give it a shot.
- Has Linda been acting strange lately?
She hasn't been to a single
one of her classes all week.
- What do you mean, strange?
- I mean like nervous
tension, insomnia, nausea,
any kind of erratic behavior?
- How did you know?
- Has she been swearing a lot?
- Like a truck driver.
- I think Linda's been using my Ouija.
- No.
- Alright.
Alright, I know you think
this is a crock of sh*t.
But just bear with me
for a minute, please.
- Okay.
Alright, when someone uses
a Ouija alone, like Linda,
she's very susceptible to
the spirits she contacts,
and the wrong spirit will
take advantage of this.
At first, he'll be extremely
helpful and friendly.
So that she's lured into
using the board more and more.
Pretty soon all she wants
to do is use the board.
Everything else, like going to
classes, becomes unimportant.
This is called progressive entrapment.
When she reaches this
stage, the spirit changes.
He starts to frighten and terrorize her,
gradually breaking down her resistance.
And once that's done,
he's able to possess her.
- So, what you're telling me is
that I'm living with Linda Blair.
- Dammit, Jim, I'm serious!
- I know, that's what makes it so funny.
I thought you were an atheist, man.
- Look, I'm not saying
that it's a demon.
Just the spirit of someone evil.
Evil when he was alive and
evil now that he's dead.
I want to bring a medium
by your apartment
as soon as possible to
exorcise the spirit.
- You're serious.
--Jim.
How do you think I knew all
those things about Linda?
Those are all symptoms of
progressive entrapment.
- They're also all
symptoms of pregnancy.
- What?
- Linda's pregnant, I'm
gonna be a father.
- Terrific.
- Come on, Brandon, I mean,
can't you be happy for us?
- You gonna marry her?
- Yeah.
Of course.
- You don't even love her.
- Let me tell you something,
you haven't talked to me
in two years, so don't stand
there and tell me how I feel.
- I know you better than
you think I do, Jim.
I know why you dropped out
of med school, does Linda?
Because you knew you'd
make a lousy doctor.
Because you're not capable
of giving a sh*t about
anyone but yourself.
- Shut up, Brandon.
- And when you get tired of
Linda, you're gonna walk away
from her too--
- Shut up, Brandon.
- Just like you did with school.
- Just like you did with your parents,
just like you did with--
- Shut up!
- Jim?
- What?
- There's a phone call for
you in the foreman's trailer.
- Take a message, I'm busy.
- It's your landlady, man,
it's something about Linda.
- She alright?
Hello?
- Jim, this is Mrs. Moses.
- Is Linda alright?
- Well, she's fine now but
she was scared awfully bad.
- Well, let me talk
to her, is she there?
- Yeah, just a minute.
- Jim?
- I'm right here, babe.
- It was David.
- David?
- Yeah.
Jim, he used to be so nice, but ...
I don't know, I'm just so scared.
- It's alright, babe,
I'm on my way home.
And I'll take care of it, I promise.
Alright?
- Okay.
- Alright, bring your medium by tonight.
- Jim, this is Zarabeth,
best medium in Northern California.
- Hi, thanks for coming.
- No prob, heh.
Hey, nice place.
But, uh, you got yourself
one gnarly spirit here,
I can feel it.
See, hairs standing up on my arm?
-=-Mm hm.
This is your expert, where'd
you find her, the circus?
- Okay, so she's a bit strange, but--
- A bit strange, her head
looks like a friggin' rainbow.
- You must be Linda.
- Uh, Linda, this is Zarabeth.
- Hi.
- She's a medium.
- How bitchin'.
- Uh, yeah, I prepared
everything like he said to.
- Top-notch job, Jim, let's
get this show on the road.
- I can't believe you did all
this while I was sleeping.
- Okay.
I'm gonna make contact now,
so whatever happens, stay in your seat.
Alright?
If you stand or talk, the
contact might be broken.
Oh.
Bummer.
I forgot my crystal ball, ha!
Ha, ha, ha, just a little psychic humor!
I don't really have a crystal ball.
- Should we hold hands or something?
- Nah, that's just in
the vampire movies.
Anyway, my nails are too grody.
Okay, let's talk to some ghosts.
- Who are you?
- Please don't hate me.
- Who are you?
- David.
- David, do you know me?
- Yes, Brandon, I know you.
- How old are you?
-10.
I passed away.
- Tell us.
Why are you terrorizing Linda?
- I love Linda.
- Then why
are you frightening her?
- She hurt me.
She won't talk to me anymore.
Because of him.
- Jim?
- He is cruel.
- You are cruel,
David, Linda fears you.
- I'm sorry.
I was angry.
I love you.
- Linda no longer
wishes to speak to you.
I am taking the Ouija
home with me tonight.
- I know.
- The woman you are speaking
through is a psychic.
She has the power to exorcise
you from this apartment.
- No.
I'll go.
I never meant to harm anyone.
Goodbye.
- David, why--
- Goodbye.
- David, wait!
- Linda, don't!
- Ahh.
Brandy, catch the lights, huh?
- Huh?
Oh, yeah.
- Zarabeth, thank you.
- Too cool.
But I didn't do it,
David left on his own.
- Yeah, well, he sure knows
how to make a dramatic exit.
- Well, maybe I reacted
a little too quick.
- What?
- I don't know.
Maybe I should have given him
more of a chance, you know?
I mean, he's not evil, he's just,
he's just like a little boy.
- No way.
No way, he is taking this
thing home now, and that's it.
- Believe me, Linda,
we did the right thing.
- Oh, for sure, I mean,
that was one nasty ghost.
Good thing the exorcism didn't happen.
It would have been mondo tough.
I see a vision.
- What is it?
- Me.
In your car,
going home.
Just some more psychic humor.
Come on, Brandy, let's
hit the musty dusty.
T-T-F-N.
- T-T-F-N?
- Uh, ta ta for now.
Uh, thanks for letting me bring her.
- Don't mention it.
To anybody.
- You did a good job tonight, thank you.
- You ever heard of the
word Malfeitor before?
- Malfeitor?
It's Portuguese, it
means someone evil, why?
- Was David Portuguese?
- No, I don't think so.
- And he's only 10 years old?
- Yeah.
- Whoa.
He must have taken some mega vitamins,
‘cause he was a real toughie.
- Something's bothering you, what is it?
- I see danger ahead.
- For Linda?
- For you.
If you miss my house.
Ha ha, ha ha!
It's coming up on the right.
- A little more psychic humor, huh?
- All kidding aside, though,
something is really icky.
- Like what?
- I'm not sure, stay by the phone
and I'll call you later on tonight
after I do the Nancy Drew bit.
T-T-F-N.
In the middle of the summer
In the middle of the night
She was deaf from her own heartbeat
Still she heard something move
It was just out of sight
And the morning was way out of reach
Questions may be answered
By the light of the day
Oh it's so far away
- You!
- Police are calling it
the worst traffic accident
in the county's history.
An accident of a different sort
claimed the life of a
Fairfield woman late last night
when she fell to her death
from a second-floor window.
The victim, Sarah Crawford,
claimed to be a psychic
and worked as a professional medium
under the pseudonym of Zarabeth.
Police officials will not divulge
whether the death was suicide or m*rder,
but a full-scale investigation
is presently underway.
- Thank you, Stu.
Lee will be back with
weather right after this.
- Yeah, who is it?
-Jim, it's
Brandon, we have to talk.
- Alright, I'll buzz you up.
- Okay, but meet
me in the upstairs lobby.
- What's up?
- Where's Linda?
- She's asleep, man, why?
- Come here.
Zarabeth is dead.
- What?
- Someone or something
pushed her out a window.
- Jesus Christ.
- She suspected something about David.
She was gonna check on it,
I think David k*lled her.
- Wait a minute, man,
the spirit k*lled her?
- Yes, and I think he
cut your phone line too,
so I couldn't warn
Linda about the Ouija,
and he probably k*lled Lloyd.
But that time I think he was after you.
- Man, are you listening to yourself?
You're telling me there's
a 10 year old ghost
flying around Fairfield k*lling people.
- Look.
I know it sounds crazy, but
I am sure that I'm right.
- Well, assuming that you are,
why would he wait "til now?
You contacted him long before Linda.
- No, I've never been alone.
I've always had people with
me when I use the Ouija.
- Okay, so you took it home, there's--
- No, I checked the box
this morning, no Ouija.
- Man, that's impossible,
I boxed it myself.
- Well, maybe Linda removed
it when you weren't looking.
She's obsessed with it,
Jim, that means that
she's already fallen into
progressive entrapment.
- Well, then I just have
to find the damn thing
and get rid of it.
- It's too late for that.
Linda is so open now,
I don't think David
needs it anymore.
- You told me that
that's where he got his power.
- It's just a portal,
you see, most spirits
are trapped in their world
and they can't enter ours
without some kind of help,
like a medium or a Ouija.
- Or someone that's been opened
by progressive entrapment.
- Yes.
- You're telling me that
Linda is a portal for David.
- Eventually.
He'll possess her,
unless we can stop him.
That's why I'm going to Big Bear.
- What's in Big Bear?
- That's where David claims he died.
Now I have to go there
and check out his story.
We can't fight unless we
know exactly who he is
and how powerful he is.
For all I know, he's been lying to me
since the first time I contacted him.
- You're really going up there?
- I have to.
I feel responsible.
- What, are you gonna leave now?
- Yeah, until I get back,
you keep an eye on Linda.
- Brandon.
Listen, man.
Look, I don't know, I don't
know if I buy all this.
But good luck.
- David, are you here?
David, have you come back?
Ah!
Jim!
Jim, help!
- Linda?
Linda, open the door.
- Jim!
- Linda, unlock the door!
- Jim!
Jim!
- Jesus.
- Jim, Linda?
Is everything alright?
Hello, Jim, Linda?
- Mrs. Moses, call an ambulance.
- Why, what happened?
- Linda's hurt.
She's unconscious.
- Doctor Rogers, 1742.
Doctor Rogers, 1742.
- Duherst, what do you want from me?
You know, I don't think
I've got the dexterity
to be a juggler either.
My, my, that was rude.
- I got a D in manners.
- How well did you know
Sarah Crawford, aka Zarabeth?
- Why, was she into card tricks?
-I don't know,
but she managed to get her throat slit
before she went through a window.
That's a pretty neat
trick in anybody's book.
What do you think her
throat was slit with?
- A hatchet?
- Whatever it was, her
throat matched the ropes
that were cut on the construction site.
Have you found your hammer yet?
- No, I guess it just vanished.
- You know, I saw this magician once.
He managed to make an
entire elephant disappear.
An entire elephant!
That's no mean feat, either.
Just a tiny elephant is pretty tough
just to stick up your sleeve.
Of course, I know that he didn't really
make that elephant vanish into thin air.
He just managed to hide it someplace.
- Mr. Morar?
- Yes?
- I'm Dr. Gelineau.
- Is Linda alright?
Your diagnosis was right on
the nose, a mild concussion.
That must have been quite a fall.
- Yeah.
How's the baby?
- Linda missed her
appointment yesterday,
so I didn't get a chance to tell her,
but she's not pregnant.
- But, she's had, she's had
morning sickness all week.
- Nevertheless.
I'm sorry.
- Can I see her?
- Sure, but
she's still unconscious.
- I'm going with you.
What's our first move when we get there?
- The Big Bear Public Library.
- Why?
- Why not?
- Well, as long as you've got a reason.
Oh, hello.
- What?
- Wait a minute, wait a
minute, let me enlarge it.
Bingo.
A gasoline expl*si*n
aboard a small motorboat
claimed the life of 10
year old David Simpson
early yesterday morning.
Funeral services for David,
the only child of John
and Betty Simpson,
will be held this Saturday
at the Green Meadows Cemetery.
- Well, now we know David
is telling the truth.
We still don't know why
he's terrorizing Linda.
- How do we find that out?
- We ask his parents.
Damn it!
There's not one listing
for John or Betty Simpson.
- Didn't the article say
that David was buried
at the Green Meadows Cemetery?
- Yeah, so?
- So, maybe the caretaker
has got their address on an invoice.
- Jesus, don't do that to me, alright?
- Sorry, man.
Look, nobody's home,
the place is locked up.
- Oh, damn it.
I guess we're just gonna
have to come back tomorrow.
- You know, as long as we're here,
I'm gonna check out David's grave.
- Why?
- Why not?
-No, Jim, don't!
I've got a very bad feeling about this.
Oh God, I've got a bad
feeling about this.
Jim?
Jim?
Where are you?
Whoa!
- sh*t.
- Oh, God, you scared
the sh*t out of me.
- Shut up, just shut up.
You're gonna get us both
arrested for grave robbers.
- Where were you?
- I found someone I want you to meet.
- Who?
- David's parents.
Look at the date, man.
David's parents died on the same day.
Less than two weeks ago.
- Must have been some
kind of an accident.
- What if it wasn't?
- I'm going to
try and get some sleep.
Gotta get out to the dock
first thing in the morning.
- I don't suppose you have an
extra toothbrush in that bag.
- I'm afraid not.
- Damn, I hate talking to
ghosts with plaque on my teeth.
A little psychic humor.
- God, why are we laughing?
- It helps us forget how scared we are.
What happened to us, man?
We used to be like brothers.
- I don't know, things change.
People change.
- I didn't steal her
from you, you know that.
- I know.
It's just that every time I
see the two of you together,
I go crazy.
I start saying stupid
things and I can't stop.
I tell myself, Brandon,
stop being such an as*h*le.
Then my mouth pops open
and out comes another stupid quip.
- You're still in love with her.
I envy you then.
You remember what you said
about me quitting med school?
- Jim, I'm sorry, I didn't mean that.
- No, no, you were right.
You know what I'm afraid
of more than anything else?
That I'll never be able to love anyone.
And that I'm gonna end up
spending the rest of my life alone.
If I had any real guts
I'd get out of her life
before she wastes any
more of her time on me.
- So tell me.
What does she see in you
that she didn't see in me?
- I make her laugh.
-So did Il.
- Yeah, but only in the bedroom.
- You really are an
as*h*le, you know that?
- Yeah.
- Linda!
Linda!
Linda, come here.
- What'd you get?
- Take it.
Let's go.
- Oh, man.
Haven't we seen enough of these?
- We're gonna need it to contact David.
- Man, I got a real
bad feeling about this.
What are you doing, man?
I thought we had to put
this thing on our knees.
- Not this time.
Since this is where David died,
contact with the spirit
should be very strong.
- Not too strong, I hope.
- Don't worry.
If I'm right about Linda
being his portal,
she's too far away for him to reach us.
- What if you're wrong and
the Ouija's the portal?
Man, we're gonna be opening
the door if we use this thing.
- I'm not wrong, Linda is his portal.
David can't hurt us
here, we're too far away.
Besides, he can't do anything
while she's sleeping.
She's under sedation, right?
- Yeah.
- Linda?
I think you should stay and
let us run some more tests.
- Oh, no, I feel fine.
I just wanna go home now, thanks.
- David, why
are you terrorizing Linda?
N-O, N-O-what?
T.
- N-O-T.
Not?
- David, do you mean you're
not terrorizing Linda?
Then who is?
- Evil.
What the hell does that mean?
-ldon't...
Wait a minute.
David.
You were at Jim's party, weren't you?
And you flattened my tire?
David, now, this is very important.
Please tell us the truth.
Did you k*ll Lloyd at
the construction site?
And you didn't k*ll Zarabeth?
But you did speak to us through her.
- No.
Then who the hell did we talk to?
Again with the evil.
- Wait a minute, wait a
minute, I think I have it.
David, is this evil another spirit?
Is this spirit powerful?
Did it force you out of Jim's apartment?
Is this spirit's name Malfeitor?
Then Linda never actually contacted you
all the time she was using my Ouija.
- Alright, then who's Malfeitor?
- That's what we're gonna find out.
David, who is Malfeitor?
- Her, who is her?
- David, do you mean Linda?
Well, then who is her?
- What's wrong?
- I don't know,
he's agitated, be careful.
David, are you alright,
what's the matter?
- Hey.
Didn't you say they were lousy spellers?
- That's right.
David, did you misspell the word?
Alright, okay.
Just try again, one more time, slowly.
Who is Malfeitor?
H.
E.
R.
- What happened?
- I lost him.
It happens sometimes.
David.
- Can't you get him back?
-I don't know!
David?
- What is he trying
to spell here?
-I don't know!
David?
- H-E-R
E, here!
Malfeitor is here.
- But he can't be, that would mean--
Jim.
- Brandon?
Brandon!
Oh, oh ...
Ugh.
Ugh, Jesus!
Oh, God.
Oh, oh, God.
Oh, God.
- David?
David, where are you?
David, what have you done with Jim?
David, answer me, goddammit.
Dammit.
You b*stard.
- Carlos Malfeitor
was a fairly notorious
mass m*rder*r in his day.
He k*lled nine people, chopped
them all up with an axe.
- Whatever happened to him?
Is he still alive?
- No, the police finally
caught up to him around 1930.
Shot him down in his own home.
There it is.
- Hello?
Yes, I'd like to speak
to Linda Brewster.
She's a patient in room 310.
No, no, 375.
It's an emergency!
What?
When?
- Linda?
Jesus Christ.
Linda, I'm trying to help you.
- Fine, then stop moving.
Go ahead, James.
What are you waiting for?
- Linda, I love you.
- Jim?
- God, Linda.
- It's not that easy, James.
- Don't move, as*h*le!
The rest of you people
go back down to your apartments, now!
I understand you left quite a mess
up there in Big Bear, Mr. Morar.
- Duherst, listen.
It's not what you think.
Listen to me--
- Don't.
Miss Brewster, can you stand?
- You
won't k*ll her, James.
- I can sh**t her in the leg.
- That won't change anything.
- It'll buy us some time.
Time to fight you, time for
Linda to close the portal.
- Only you can do that, James.
- Put it down.
Put it down!
- You're so smart.
You haven't figured it
out yet, have you, James?
You're the portal.
Not Linda.
You're the one I opened.
You're the one I terrorized
by torturing Linda
and by k*lling your friends.
Linda is mine as long as you live.
- Bullshit.
Bullshit, you tried to k*ll me.
- No, just to scare you.
You're the portal, James.
You wanna save Linda?
That's right.
You've got the means
right there in your hands.
Go ahead, James.
Close the portal.
But you won't.
You can't.
You don't love her that much.
Not that much.
- Linda.
- Is she worth it, James?
Is anybody really worth it?
Think about it.
- Ugh!
-Jim, don't!
- I now pronounce
you man and wife.
You may kiss the bride.
- Look what I found.
- A wee-gee board.
Gee, I
haven't seen one of these
since I was a kid.
- I didn't know they've
been around that long.
- Heh heh.
I wonder if it still works.
- With all those holes in it?
In the middle of the summer
In the middle of the night
She was deaf from her own heartbeat.
Still she heard something move
It was just out of sight
And the morning was way out of reach
Questions may be answered
By the light of the day
But it's so far away
When things go bump in the night
Bump in the Night
The stairway's a dragon
when you turn out the light
And things go bump in the Night
She's been dreaming of demons
Dreaming of fire
Dreaming the deluge was near.
With so many awoken
Like the voice of a child
Suddenly nothing was clear
Logical conclusions
Get harder to make
As you lie there awake
And things go bump in the night
Bump in the night
The coat rack's a madman
When you turn out the light
And things go bump in the night
Logical conclusions
Get harder to make
As you lie there awake
And things go bump in the night
Bump in the night
The stairway's a dragon
When you turn out the light
And things go bump in the night
Bump in the night
Bump in the night
Bump in the night
Bump in the night
The stairway's a dragon
When you turn out the light
And things go bump in the night
