[thunder claps]

[eerie music playing]

[rope tightening]

[flashes]

[car engine stopping]

[birds chirping]

This is the place.

[car door opening]

[footsteps]

[sighs]

It's okay.

-[chuckles]
-It's actually not that bad.

From the way your mother was talking
I was expecting some kind of murder house.

Yeah, you shouldn't pay
too much attention to my mom.

[man] She and Uncle Alex
didn't exactly get along.

[footsteps]

-[doorknob clicks]
-[door creaking]

-[light switch flicking]
-Ah.

Smells rather musty.

Well, it's either this
or 2,000 bucks a month for the apartment.

-I love it.
-Right.

-Is that him?
-Yeah, that's Uncle Alexander.

Still feels a bit weird
staying in a dead man's house.

Well, it's just a house, Diane.

-Hey. Hey, hey, let me get that.
-[groans]

-Come on.
-[sighs] I'm three months pregnant, Mitch.

-I'm not an invalid.
-I know, I just--

Will you-- Will you take it easy? For me?

-[Diane sighs]
-[footsteps]

[Mitch] Try the faucet.

-[faucet squeaking]
-[Diane] Great.

Try under the counter.

I think the fuses are in the basement.
I'll go take a look.

[door opening, creaking]

[footsteps walking away]

Hey, Diane! Come see what I found.

[glasses clinking]

[glasses clinking]

[glasses break]

-Diane!
-[groaning]

-Shit! Diane!
-[groaning]

[glasses clattering]

[Diane sobbing]

[thunder rumbles]

[cell phone vibrating]

[sighs]

-[door opens]
-[cell phone vibrating continues]

Hey, Mom.

-How is she?
-She's fine.

Uh, we saw Dr Fielding
and everything's fine, the baby's fine.

You should be more careful.

Imagine letting her carry boxes in
from the car.

I told you nothing good would come
from you staying in that house.

Please, Mom, don't start this again.

Well, think of your poor sister.

But, Mom, I-I don't get how it affects
Karen if I'm staying here.

She-she doesn't even know what day
of the week it is.

-Don't say that.
-Well, it's true.

When was the last time you saw her?

Well, I don't know, it's been a while.

-A while?
-Maybe a year, I guess.

Mitch Walker, how could you?

Abandoning your own sister.

When did you last visit?

It's been hard for me to get out there
since your father passed.

-You've a perfectly good car.
-Yeah, when it works.

Listen, Mom, you know things haven't been
great financially for me and Diane.

Staying here at the house
is really gonna help us out.

The rent in town was crippling us.

It's no place for my grandchild
to be born and raised.

The good Lord has seen fit for you
and Diane to be blessed with this child.

Where was He a year ago?

There is evil in that house,
you mark my words.

Jesus, Mom!

What did you say?

[thunder rumbles]

I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I--

It's just a house, okay?

Maybe I-- Maybe I'll fix things up,
we can make some money on it.

Nothing good will come of that house.

Okay.

All right. Well, look,
uh, I gotta check on Diane

so, uh, I'll call you tomorrow.

Remember what I said, Mitch.

-[thunder claps]
-I will. I certainly will.

All right, you take care, Mom.
I'll speak to you soon.

The power's on.

Was that your mother?

How did you guess?

You always sound like that
when you speak to her.

Like what?

Oh, like a little boy getting a scolding.

Well, you know how she can be.

You know, if she really has a problem
with this house…

-maybe we should just--
-[sighs] Look, it's not the house.

-It's Uncle Alex.
-You said they didn't get along.

I think it runs deeper than that.

-You know my mom's devout?
-Yes.

I have the church wedding pictures
to prove it.

Uncle Alex? Kind of the reverse.

-Atheist?
-No, worse than that.

He was like a spiritualist
or a psychic or whatever.

You know, crystal healing,
tarot cards, all that stuff.

-Doesn't sound all that bad.
-This is my mom we're talking about.

Remember the time we had to hide
those Harry Potter books in the apartment?

-[laughs]
-Right?

-Right?
-Yes.

Anyway, she and Uncle Alex,
they just about got along.

I mean, my dad was always the peacekeeper.

Wish I could have met him.

Yeah.

I'll never know how he ended up married
to my mom.

[clicks tongue]
Anyway, something happened.

I was around eight or nine.

We were staying here for the weekend.

I remember the day before,
we were in the basement,

Uncle Alex was taking pictures.

He had that, um, this special camera
that could photograph your aura.

You ever heard of that?
I think it's called Krillian.

Is it Krillian, or Kirlian or something?

Your aura is supposed to represent
your personality

or your guardian angel or something.

And…

-Oh, shoot.
-What?

No, I just remembered what I found
in the basement this morning.

I wanna show you something.

-[door opening]
-[footsteps]

[dramatic music playing]

[door closes]

[car engine sputtering]

[car engine starts]

I didn't come to drink tea, Mom.

[Mitch] I came to talk
about what happened with Uncle Alex.

-[tea cup clatters]
-[sighs] Now look what you made me do.

Will you-- Mom, let me--
Will you let me do that?

Why are you doing this to me?

I won't talk about it. I won't!

[inhales sharply]
If your father were alive--

Well, he isn't, Mom.

Dad's gone, Uncle Alex's gone, so there's
just you and me to deal with this

and I'm sick of all the secrets
in this family.

I've never heard you speak to me
like this, Mitch.

In all my days.

After all I've done for you.

After all the sins I've forgiven.

I'm worried about Karen.

Not worried enough to go visit her.

I used to, Mom, you know I did.

But since Diane and I--

Since we lost the baby--

And then there was the wedding,
the apartment--

You know I lost my job.

Karen's just a long way out.

It was the best place for her.

Yeah, but wasn't there some place closer--

It was the best place.

-Your father agreed.
-Yeah, I'm not too sure he was happy--

Your father agreed.

We agreed as a family.

She needed care.

How is Diane?

She's okay.
Just low blood pressure, that's all.

Is she taking anything for it?

Yes. And resting a lot.

So she should be.

You know I--

[inhales sharply]
I pray for the two of you every night.

And you wonder why I'm concerned
about you staying in that house?

Diane should be somewhere safe
in her condition.

Not in a place like that.

Then tell me what happened there.

Give me a chance to understand.

[poignant music playing]

[sighs]

You'd just turned nine years old.

It was cold in that house.

It was always cold.

I don't know why we went there
every winter.

[inhales sharply] Your uncle…

…was fooling around with that camera.

He made us all pose for pictures
in the cellar.

Dear Lord, it was cold down there.

Um, that evening,

your uncle was in a… a terrible mood.

He… ate nothing at dinner,

said nothing to anyone all evening.

Well, later that night,

your father woke me,

saying that he--
he'd been to check on you and Karen,

and that Karen was…

was missing from her bed.

We checked the bathroom
and the other bedrooms…

and your uncle was missing, too.

I-I don't remember this.

We didn't want to wake you.

And then…

then we checked the basement.

And there she was.

My little girl.

He had her… [chuckles]

there were ropes,

tied around her arms and legs,
tying her down.

Her face was… was wet with tears.

But she wasn't crying.

Not anymore.

She was speaking.

Quietly speaking the…

the same words, over and over.

"Get it out of me."

"I don't want it in me."

"It's hurting me."

So now you know.

Now you know our family's
dirty little secret.

And I never want to hear your uncle's name
mentioned in this house again.

What-- What happened next?

You know what happened next.

Karen never recovered her mind
after what he--

after that night.

So is that when it started? Her illness?

It was the trauma.

Of course those--

those so-called doctors,
they couldn't prove anything,

but I know what it was.

It was only then
that she started hearing the voices--

stopped recognizing her own family.

What happened to uncle…

I mean, did he go to jail?

Well, I told you
they couldn't prove anything.

Karen was too sick to talk to the police,

so we just made sure

never to have contact with him again.

Of course, he wrote letters.

What did he say?

I burnt them in the fire.

And now, God willing,
the same thing is happening to him.

He's burning in the fire of Hell.

[door opens]

-What are you doing?
-I don't know, wasting my time probably.

This was the camera
I was telling you about.

Oh, the one that's supposed to photograph
people's auras?

Right. I was just trying to see
if I could get it to work.

Why?

Look at these. This one's me.

That's your aura?

That's so cool.

So what do all the different colors mean?

Here. Take a look.

Secrets of Kirlian Photography
by Ada Devere.

Okay, I think I'll give that one a miss.

All right, well,
take a look at this picture.

Jesus.

-Who is that?
-Karen. When she was seven.

[Diane] What's all that stuff around her?

I don't know, maybe this camera's
just a bunch of bullshit, I don't know.

Right, stand over there.

Okay now, don't move.

Wait, wait.

This hasn't got any radiation
or anything in it, has it?

No, it's fine.

-[flashes]
-[camera whirring]

Okay, now we wait a second.

-Jesus.
-What is it?

Look at this.

Is that-- Is that pink my aura?

Look closer.

Mitch.

Is that-- Is that the baby's aura?

I don't know.

I think I need to talk to someone
who knows about this stuff.

Well.

Do you think Ada Devere's still around?

There she is.
"Ada Devere, Registered Psychic."

"Tarot readings, séances,
chakra alignment."

Séances-- Come on,
everybody knows all that stuff's a fraud.

Well, my uncle believed it.

Well, maybe Uncle Alex believed
he could make money from it.

And that woman, too.

Maybe.

So, Mr. Walker,

I gather you are interested
in a tarot reading?

Yes. Uh, my wife and I
are about to start a family.

-Your wife is pregnant?
-Yes, three months.

Congratulations. Is it your first?

Uh… yes.

You're not sure?

Well, um, we lost a baby before.

Oh. I'm sorry to hear that.

So you would like to know what the cards
predict for the immediate future?

That's it, exactly.

You do realize
this is not an exact science.

I can't tell you
which lottery ticket to buy

or what color to paint the nursery.

I understand.

And your wife didn't want to come along?

Ah, well, she's um…

she's a little skeptical,
I guess you could say.

Oh, it's not uncommon for partners
to be skeptical

but usually it's the wives
who come to see me

-and the husbands who stay at home.
-Right.

I'm just wondering
what makes you the exception?

Well, I just find it all fascinating,
and, um…

So how does it all work?

Well…

You select a card.

[ominous music playing]

Don't be too concerned,
the cards are not literal.

They need to be interpreted

and the real meaning comes
from the combination of the cards.

Now, would you mix the rest of the pack up

keeping them face down at all times.

Okay.

Why do I do this part?

It Is said that by touching the cards,

you imbue them with your energy,
your hopes,

and your dreams.

Now, let's see what combination we get.

Oh.

Have you suffered a bereavement
in the family recently?

-Uh, apart from--
-Yes, my unc--

grandfather, um, passed away a month ago.

Really?

Were you close?

Yes.

What was the cause of death, exactly?

Uh, it was, uh, cancer.
It was very sudden.

What was his name?

His name… Uh…

Mr. Walker, if you have come here
to waste my time and yours,

then I suggest you leave.

The cost of the reading is 98 dollars,

and that goes for real
or fictional members of your family.

I'm sorry.

I just didn't wanna give you
any information.

You know, I've read about these things.

You people ask questions and then
people tell you their life stories,

and then you feed back
the same information as if by magic.

I have never claimed to know anything
about magic, Mr. Walker.

Now, why don't we stop pretending
that you've come here for a tarot reading

and tell me more about your uncle,
I think, you were gonna say.

And whatever it is that you have
in your jacket pocket

that you would like to show me.

How do you know that?

You keep putting your hand on it
to make sure it's still there.

All right.

[eerie music playing]

Who is this girl?

That's my sister.

It's an old picture
from when she was seven.

This was taken with a Kirlian camera?

Yes, by my uncle.

He was kind of in your profession
before he died.

What is it?

Alexander DuPrez?

Yes. Have you heard of him?

I should have known immediately
I saw the picture.

Alexander was the only person
who persevered

with the Kirlian photography equipment

when everybody else thought it was a fad.

So Alexander has passed away.

I'm sorry, Ada.
I… I didn't know you knew him.

Were you friends?

Yeah, kind of.

It was a long time ago.

And, um… where is your sister now?

She's in a… mental health facility.

Near the coast.

Been there almost all her life.

Since what age?

Well, she was fine to begin with, but…

by the time that picture was taken,
she had suffered a trauma.

Trauma?

I think she was hurt by my uncle.

Hurt?

You know, abused.

Oh.

By Alexander?

It's unlikely.

No, I don't think your uncle
was the cause of her trauma.

I think that is.

What is that?

How long ago was this picture taken?

Thirty years.

Thirty years.

There is a chance she may be free of it.

Free of what?

If only there was a way to make sure.

-Well, I still have the camera.
-The Kirlian camera?

Could you get your sister in front of it?

[sighs] I don't know. I mean--

Mr. Walker, my advice to you
is to get your sister out of that facility

and in front of the Kirlian camera.

There is a chance that I can help her.

But first, we have to know
if she still carries this with her.

Just one more question.

You said this photograph
was taken 30 years ago.

Can you tell me the exact date?

Uh, my mom said I'd just turned nine,
so that would make it November.

Thank you.

[door slams]

[Mitch] Dr. Simms?

Jeff. I'm not a doctor.

Uh, Karen Walker, right?

[Mitch] Yeah. Uh, that's my sister.

[mysterious music playing]

Is she always like this?

Pretty much.

Does she talk?

Not that I've heard.

Likes to draw though.

Draw?

[Jeff] Used to draw on the walls
so they gave her some paper and a pencil.

Some of it's in the file, I think.

[Mitch] She's not dangerous, is she?

Wasn't there a form or something
to say why she was committed?

[Jeff] Well, that'd be the pink form.

[exhales]

-Well, that's weird.
-What?

This is normally signed by a doctor,
but this one just says,

"Transferred to resident status
by personal consent of Ellen--"

-No. "Elaine."
-Elaine Walker?

Yeah, that's… that's my mom.

I've never seen one of these before.

What… What does it mean?

Your sister was never committed.

She was placed in the care
of this facility voluntarily,

by permission of Elaine Walker.

-[fax machine whirring]
-[telephone ringing]

So does that mean she's free to leave?

Do you have ID?

[birds chirping]

[car door closes]

Karen?

I'm gonna start the car now, okay?

I'm gonna take you home.

All right?

Karen, it's Mitch.

It's your brother, Mitch.
Remember me? Huh?

All right.

[car engine sputtering]

Oh, come on.

Come on.

[car engine sputtering continues]

[car engine starting]

[Diane] Who is this?

Is this your sister?

Will you keep your voice down?
I don't wanna freak her out.

Mitch, your mum put her into that facility
because she needs professional care.

[door closes]

Excuse me, Karen.

-[door opens]
-[Mitch] Are you okay?

It's just my blood pressure.
I took the stairs too fast.

All right, well, let me help you
to the couch. Come on.

No, really, I'm okay.

It's okay. I just need to sit down.

And you probably shouldn't leave Karen
downstairs by herself.

She's… She's fine.
I just wanna make sure you're oka--

Shit. You're right.

You are right.

-[door opens]
-Karen--

Shit!

[sighs]

[eerie music playing]

Ah.

Here you are.

October.

November.

[fire crackling]

[thunder rumbling]

Is she asleep?

I think so. It's hard to tell.
I left her on the couch.

-So did she do it?
-Do what?

Oh, you know what. Break the camera.

No, no, it just slipped off the stand.

You know,
I should have tightened the screw.

That stuff's old.
It could've easily broken loose.

[Diane] Yeah, right.

She's not violent, Diane.

[Diane] So, can you fix it?

What?

The camera, dummy.

Maybe. Yeah, I think
the film's ruined, but, uh…

I can't imagine a place that sells it.

[Diane sighs]

[Diane] I'm sorry.

It's just sometimes, you know…

sometimes I'm just so scared for the baby.

Look, it's gonna be okay, all right?

Even my mom is praying for us.

[ominous music playing]

[thunder rumbles]

[creature screeches softly]

[roars]

-[light switch clicks]
-[Mitch gasps]

What are you doing?

Just checking she's real.

-[Diane] How did she get up here?
-I don't know.

I don't know what I'm doing.

Maybe we should take her back.

[birds chirping]

Mitch, it's getting cold.

Shoot. I left Karen's sweater
in the basement.

Okay, I'll go down and get it.
You just work on getting her into the car.

Karen, we're gonna get you
in the car now, okay?

Easy.

Jesus, Karen, please!

Hey! I thought you said
the camera was broken.

[door opens, creaking]

It was on the ground, right there
in pieces, all the film was spilled out.

-Are you sure?
-Yes.

Well, then you must be seeing things.

Uh-huh.

Mitch, where are you going?

To get Karen.

I wanna get that picture taken right now.

-Do you want me to hold her?
-I don't think it matters.

[camera shutter clicks]

[camera whirring]

I gotta get this to Ada.

You're not leaving me here with Karen,
are you?

Yeah, she'll be fine. Don't worry.

But how do I look after her?

-I mean, should I call your mother?
-[Mitch] No.

She mustn't know about this.

She'll go crazy if she finds out
I brought Karen back to this house.

She'll be fine.

[Karen breathing heavily]

It's worse, isn't it?

Is that what you expected?

I thought there might be a small chance
it had left her, but, uh…

[Mitch] What is it?

This may not be easy for you to hear,
Mr. Walker.

Listen. If there's a way to help Karen,
I don't care what it is.

Right.

I want you to listen very carefully.

"Since long before recorded history,

our Earth has been inhabited
by a form of…"

I hesitate to use the word "life,"

as the rules of life that we know
do not apply to these beings.

"Nevertheless, a form of entity

that we cannot, under normal
circumstances, see or sense."

"On rare occasions throughout history,

these entities have,
for one reason or another,

strayed into our plane of existence."

"Mankind has described them
as best he can."

The Catholics saw demons and devils.

In the Islamic world,
they are called "djinns."

It is where the word "genie" comes from.

They don't look like genies.

I'm not referring to what you may have
seen in cartoons, Mr. Walker.

"These entities can be very dangerous."

"Most don't concern themselves
with humankind,

but those that do travel to our plane
or are brought here

can be very vindictive."

"Such a being would think nothing
of invading a human soul

purely with the intent to cause suffering
and misery."

So is one of these things… in my sister?

Of that, I am 100 percent certain.

The photograph you showed me
leaves me in no doubt.

And it's been there all this time?

A decade is the blink of an eye
for such a creature.

They are eternal.

-Listen. You said she could be helped.
-Yes.

Perhaps.

I can only try, Mr. Walker.

[cell phone ringing]

-Elaine, hi.
-[Elaine] Diane, dear.

I'm so pleased to hear your voice.

I was so worried about what happened,
carrying boxes around the place.

Well, I'm fine.

[Elaine] I told him that house
is no place for you.

-It's so cold, don't you think?
-[Diane] Yeah, I suppose.

[Elaine]
Lord knows what kind of state it's in.

You know, there's plenty of space here.

[glass shatters]

Diane?

Oh, yeah, sorry.
Um, the reception isn't good here. I'm…

I'm in the basement.

[Elaine] Whatever are you doing in there?

Diane, what is it?

No. No!

Diane!

Mr. Walker…

Mitch. My name's Mitch.

Okay, Mitch.

Most people tend to have difficulty

in accepting the information
I'm giving you.

They don't like to think that the things
depicted in this book may be for real.

-But you…
-I've been seeing things…

since Karen's been in the house.

Like the camera.

She broke it last night.
I swear it was in pieces on the ground.

This morning, fine.

Well, I told you these beings
can be very vindictive.

[sighs] They are not bound
by the constraints of our reality.

They are able to create
their own alternate realities,

or at least give the appearance
of doing so.

That is why helping Karen
is gonna be very hard.

Mitch, I'm sorry to say that I believe
that this being

is very comfortable
inside your sister's body.

It clearly enjoys tormenting people.

And who better to torment
than an innocent, young girl.

I believe that's why it chose her.

It chooses to afflict the youngest,
most innocent soul in the house.

It knows our worst fears

and uses them against us.

Excuse me.

Diane?

[thunder rumbling]

[Mitch] You wanna talk about
what happened today?

-No.
-What you thought happened?

You thought something happened,
but it didn't, right?

I don't wanna talk about it.

It's like when I thought
Karen broke the camera.

I could swear I saw it.
I did see it, but it never happened.

Look, these things, they scare us,
but they're not real.

It can only scare us if we let it, Diane.

[footsteps approaching]

[chiming]

Good morning. You must be Diane.

Should I bring Karen down?

No, not just yet.

I need to lay down
some ground rules first.

So… So what is this?
Some kind of exorcism?

Were you raised a Catholic?

No. Well, yeah, kind of, on my mom's side.

Oh, dear. It's always harder to unlearn
what one has learned.

If it makes you feel any better, I didn't
pay much attention in Sunday school.

Well, the Catholics have their ways,

with their fancy costumes
and shiny trinkets.

And sometimes it even works,
though not for the reason they think.

Now, these are my ground rules.

I'm going to conduct a séance

to try and contact the entity
inside Karen's body.

This means we need to link hands.

Now, no matter what you hear,
no matter what you see,

no matter how traumatic
or emotional the situation,

you must not break the séance
until I give you the command to do so.

Maintaining contact with such a creature

takes up an enormous amount of energy
and concentration.

It may be temperamental and aggressive.

Breaking contact too soon
could be disastrous…

for all of us.

You said "rules." Is that everything?

No.

Your wife must not come into this basement
at any time.

-I'm pretty sure she'll be fine with that.
-At any time, Mitch.

Got it.

Does she know what she's doing?

I don't know. I think so.

Mitch, what if this thing, whatever it is,
what if it hurts Karen?

Makes her worse?

I don't think that's possible.

Put her there.

-And she'll have to be bound into place.
-Really?

Mitch, the struggle
will not only be spiritual, but physical.

The entity will be trying to gain
dominance over Karen's soul.

It is not unknown
for the afflicted subject

to suffer harm or even death

during the process.

Take her hand, Mitch.

Be firm.

Remember what I told you.

[Karen breathing heavily]

Linking hands opens the channels
of communication.

It also creates a link between us
and the entity's astral plane.

If we break hands too early,
we will fail to banish it.

[Ada exhales deeply]

So what happens now?

Ada?

[whispering] Karen. Karen Walker.

I want to speak to Karen Walker.

Karen, can you hear me?

I wanna speak to Karen Walker.

Karen.

Karen, can you hear me?

I wanna speak to Karen Walker.

Karen.

Can you hear me?

Help me!

[Ada] Karen?

Is that you?

Help me!

It hurts!

Be calm, Karen.

We are going to help you.

Your brother is here with me.

We are going to help you.

It won't let you.

We are going to take away the pain, Karen.

It won't let you, it likes hurting me,
it doesn't wanna stop.

Nevertheless, we will continue.

You can't.

It will hurt me.

-It will kill me!
-I don't think so, Karen.

[Karen] It will.

It will kill me if you come for it.

[Ada] If it kills you, Karen,

it will have nowhere to go.

It will hurt you.

It will hurt all of you.

What if I speak to it kindly, Karen?

What if I try to persuade it
not to do such a thing?

-It doesn't wanna talk to you.
-What if…

[demonic voice] It doesn't
wanna listen to you.

-It doesn't wanna listen to you!
-[chair clattering]

It doesn't wanna listen to you!

-[chair sliding]
-[screams]

Ada?

[music playing on radio]

Can it really hurt Karen?

I mean, really?

If it kills her, Mitch,

her soul will leave her body

and the creature
will be forced out with it.

Now, we know it doesn't want that.

But it will fight. Hard.

You know there-there was this one time
when we were kids,

there were these two big old fallen trees
we used to climb on.

One time, I finally plucked up courage
to jump from one to the other.

Seemed like some kind of achievement,
I guess.

So I dared Karen to do it.

She was a lot smaller than me.

I knew she couldn't do it,
but I dared her anyway.

So she jumped.

And of course, she fell short.

And as she grabbed for the tree,
her hand got caught.

She broke her wrist.

I'll never forget the sound
and the way she cried.

So I carried her back home.

I took a scolding from my mom
while my dad drove us to the hospital.

I learnt right there
what it meant to be a big brother.

I was supposed to look out for Karen.

Protect her.

You're doing the right thing, Mitch.

You couldn't have stopped that creature
from inhabiting Karen's body.

You were just a child yourself.

Fortunately for you, the creature chose
the youngest, most innocent soul.

If it hadn't been Karen,

it would've been you.

[music playing on radio]

[distorted noise from radio]

[Ada] Let's try this again.

[ominous music playing]

[breathing slowly]

[Ada whispering] Karen.

Karen Walker.

I wanna speak with Karen Walker.

Karen Walker.

I wanna speak to Karen Walker.

[ominous music intensifies]

Karen.

Karen Walker.

Something's wrong.

[whispering] I wanna speak
to Karen Walker.

[Mitch] Ada, I think something's wrong.

[demon on radio] Diane Walker,

this is a message for you
about your husband, Mitch.

You know, Mitch.

Can't hold down a job. Can't make a baby.

[Ada] Karen Walker.

I wanna speak to Karen Walker.

Your baby's gonna die.

Your husband can't make a baby.

-It's gonna die!
-No!

Karen!

Karen.

Karen Walker.

I wanna speak with Karen Walker.

It's you again.

It doesn't wanna talk to you.

That's fine.

I wanna speak to Karen.

I have your brother here, Karen.

Remember your brother, Mitch?

Mitch.

He left me.

Left me to rot.

Forgot about me.

Mitch is sorry.

He wants to help you.

He can't. It will hurt me.

It will kill me.

Mitch is sorry he left you.

And he's sorry
for the time that you got hurt.

Do you remember what happened?
In the woods?

Yes.

It hurt.

Mitch hurt me.

Do you remember what happened?

You jumped from a tree.

Yes.

Mitch made me jump.

It's his fault.

He hates me.

And you hurt yourself, didn't you?

Yes.

You broke your leg.

[Karen] Yes.

My leg hurt so much.

It's Mitch's fault.

He wanted to hurt me.

Oh, really?

Yes.

That's why he's here.

He wants it to hurt me.

He wants it to kill me!

But you didn't break your leg,
did you, Karen?

It was only your wrist!

[chair clattering]

[screams] Fuck you!
Dirty cock-sucking cunt!

[roaring]

Ada.

Well, it didn't like that, did it?

You tricked it?

Oh, I suspected it was taunting us.

Pretending to be Karen.

Trying to discourage us.

That's what they feed on, emotional pain.

You see, they have no physical body.

Only the one they infiltrate.

-So, what's our next move?
-[sighs] I have to rest.

Can you give me the book, please?

And you'd better check
how your wife is holding up.

Yeah.

[door opens]

[Diane] When will this be over?

I don't know. Uh, Ada's really tired.

Oh, Ada's tired?

Well, I'm tired.

I'm tired of all of this.

It's driving me mad.

I'm-I'm hearing things
and I'm seeing things…

I know. Me too. It's okay.

But why is this happening?

It's okay… [sighs]

Ada says it's taunting us,
it's playing on our fears.

What is?

I can't explain it.

That's not good enough, Mitch.

Well, Ada's the expert.

Then I'll go and speak to Ada.

[Mitch] Diane!

-[Diane] Ada!
-Out!

-Ada…
-Mitch, you have to get her out of here.

-[Diane] What is happening?
-[Ada] I said get out!

We'd better do as she says.

Do as she says.

Mitch.

You must obey my ground rules.

Are we making progress?

Absolutely.

She looks worse.

That's because we've brought the entity
closer to the surface.

When it is so deep in a person's soul,

only the Kirlian camera
can detect its presence.

But be warned,

when we banish it entirely
from your sister's body,

there may be a moment
when we both come face to face with it.

I have seen people panic,
almost lose their minds,

when confronted with such a being.

You've-you've done this before?

Banished such a creature?

No. Never.

But you've seen one.

And this house, you've been here before.

Well.

I haven't seen that picture
in a long while.

I was wondering where it had got to.

It was inside that book.

Well, that figures. I haven't had cause
to look in this book for many years.

Thirty years, to be exact.

Why didn't you tell me?

Would it have made any difference
if I had?

I don't know. Why don't you tell me now?

Well, I knew your uncle, of course.

Back in those days, a group of us
would do the tours of the psychic fairs.

Most of them were fakes and charlatans,
but there was a close knot of five.

Me, Alexander, and three others.

Now, we understood the true power
inherent in the knowledge we possessed.

Or at least we thought we did.

Alexander invested
in the Kirlian photography equipment.

Some of the others thought
it was a cheap parlor trick,

photographing auras for a dollar a piece,

but his theory was…

that if the camera could capture auras
invisible to the naked eye,

then it might be able
to reveal other things, too.

Things like these entities?

Yeah.

See, a creature like this had never been
photographed in the whole of history.

Can you imagine our excitement
at the possibility of such a triumph?

It would have vindicated
our whole profession.

But of course, first of all,
we had to find one.

Or make one come to us.

You brought it here?

The instructions for summoning
were all here, if you knew where to look.

So the five of us gathered here
in the basement to hold a séance.

We were planning
to reach out to their plane,

we thought we knew what we were doing.

But none of us were prepared
for the terrors that we unleashed.

[Karen breathing heavily]

Of course, we tried to send it back,
banish it back to its own plane…

But you failed.

The circle was broken too early.

I realize that now.

You know, that night so disturbed us
that we never saw each other again.

We just couldn't face each other.

And it wasn't until you showed me
that picture of Karen

and told me the date when she fell sick,

that's when I realized

that somehow this creature
managed to stay in this house,

lying in wait for a fresh, young soul.

So you're responsible.

Karen's been tortured for 30 years
by something you brought into this house?

Mitch, I didn't know.
Your uncle never told me.

He would have known immediately,
of course.

As soon as the picture was developed.

And he would have tried to do
what we're doing now.

But as soon as your parents
took Karen away and broke all contact,

there would have been nothing more
he could've done.

He wrote letters.

He wrote letters to my mom.

But she burnt them.

Jesus.

He tried to tell her.

I'm sorry, Mitch.

[Karen breathing heavily]

You're going to fail.

-Karen…
-Mitch, wait.

That is not Karen.

You're going to fail.

And you're going to die.

So you've finally given up
on the pretense?

It hurts!

It hurts! [laughs]

Are you gonna let me speak to Karen
or not?

Karen is busy.

Where is she?

She's in here.

With me.

Then we'll continue.

-What are you doing?
-This has gone on long enough.

I believe there is only one option left
to end Karen's suffering.

[screeching]

[Ada] Take her hand, Mitch.

No. There must be another way.

If Karen dies, her soul
will leave her body and this earth,

and this evil bastard
will be taken with it.

You wouldn't dare! Fuck you!

-[electrical buzzing]
-Cunt!

You see how angry it's becoming?

You wouldn't dare!

Kill your own sister?

You couldn't.

Fucking faggot!

Mommy's boy!

-[chair clattering]
-[electrical buzzing]

[Elaine] Why are you doing this to me?

Mom?

Ignore it, Mitch.

After I forgave all your sins.

What sins? I didn't hurt anyone.

You sinned against the Lord, Mitch.

That's why your bastard child died.

I prayed for it every day.

And the Good Lord, in his wisdom,
took your bastard child

and cast it into the pits of hell
where it belongs.

[Ada] Don't listen to her, Mitch.

Alongside your bastard father

who had his dirty way with other women
whenever my back was turned!

-That's not true!
-Mitch, don't! Your anger feeds its power!

You're all I have in the world, Mitch.

Mom…

No…

-Don't!
-[chair clattering]

[roars]

[choking]

[Mitch] Karen?

Jesus, I think she's dead.

Karen?

[wrist bone cracks]

-No!
-[screeches]

[screams]

[Diane] Mitch?

[Mitch] Karen? Karen, can you hear me?

Karen?

-Karen?
-[coughing]

[gasps]

Karen?

It's Mitch.

You're home.

It's okay.

[sighs]

Oh, it's all right.

It's all right.

I gotta make sure.

Okay, come on.

What are you doing?

Just sit here. All right?

Di?

Karen, it's just a camera, all right?

I'm gonna take a picture.

[camera flash goes off]

[camera whirring]

Ada, it's-- It's worked!

It's gone.

Okay, Karen. All right.

Here we go. Okay.

You all right?

Where are Mom and Dad?

You've been away a long time.

I know.

Listen, I'll take her upstairs.

You'd better go check on Ada,
she doesn't look too good.

[Mitch] Ada?

You all right?

Ada?

Ada?

[melancholic music playing]

[birds chirping]

[cell phone vibrating]

[Mitch] Hey, Mom.

Mitch! You didn't call me yesterday.

A-and Diane sounded so strange,
I've been beside myself with worry!

Everything is fine, Mom.

Right, everything…

Mitch?

Mitch, are you there?

[Ada] The creature chose the youngest,
most innocent soul.
