Original subtitles

Has your father ever wandered off like this?

No.

Never.

These lights.

Right here.

You have no idea what those are?

I was hoping you could tell me that.

They look like headlights. Is there a road back there?

No.

There's nothing.

Not at all. Okay.

Then what are we looking at? Is it an abduction?

Considering the lack of evidence... Look, let's not jump to the boy who

little green men quite yet.

We've been going in circles about this whole incident for weeks.

Thankfully, with this new footage, I think we're taking a step in the right

direction.

I agree with you.

Look, I know you've been alone out there for quite some time now.

And I'll tell you what, I'm confident that with our work here, We're going to

help you find the answers you need to move on.

Jeremy, how are you feeling? You ready for this?

Yeah. Yes.

I'm ready.

Thank you, guys.

All right.

Well, I'll tell you what. We've got your address pulled up. We're going to pack

up our gear, get going real quick. You sit tight.

And he's gone.

That's our cue.

They talk about connections in college a lot.

I don't see it, man. What are we connecting with here? I mean, do you

connect with these dupes?

Just something.

Ah, shit.

I can hear her.

Yeah.

Hey, man, you grew up with her. You're going to get sick of things.

Oh, dude, it looks like you got some competition.

It's all right. I'll make it awkward.

Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop.

Yo, yo, we got some free candy in here.

Jackson, stop.

Wait one second.

Hey, you don't want any Snickers or nothing?

Huh.

I get it. He's into Rolos. He seems nice.

Nice? Yeah, he's nice. He's nice.

Does he have something at the art gallery?

I work for Dad. You know that.

Dad didn't pick us up from school.

Hey. Hey, Rachel.

What is this?

Professional equipment.

Behave yourself around here.

Yeah, about that.

Where's your car?

My car?

Yes, the big car. It goes vroom, made of metal. Fast.

You're right, we should have her carry it.

Dude, she's getting away!

Ooh, get her! Get her!

Sporting.

Okay, I gave it a thought.

I got it. Don't worry.

You can have the producer credit.

Really, really.

Because you're helping us out a lot with the car. And, you know, I think that's

a fair trade because it's going to be a lot more experience than what you've

been getting from 60 months of summer camp here. Okay, okay.

That sounds like you're jealous.

Jealous? I'd rather get stabbed, all right?

Just because you got kicked out of every school.

I rest my case.

Hey, you know, there's a lot of filmmakers that got kicked out of film

Spike Lee quit after his birthday. I left too.

Spike Lee, maybe.

Can I bring their makeup kit?

Oh, why don't you open it up, all right?

Hey, you should know what that is. It's film school. That is... Oh, shit, it's

makeup. All right. That looks good.

If I'd been given a little warning, I could have, like, cleared more stuff

Okay, well there's assertive driving and then there's this.

Are there cooties in this car?

You're in here.

Back road?

Yeah, she'd be coming out right now.

Oh, yep, there she is. All right, park it.

Stephanie, how are you doing?

Where's the boom?

Trying to spy.

Well, all they had was the knock -off brand, so just set them alone.

Is that okay?

Yeah.

Well, maybe there's another store around here that sells those T -cards. It's

alright, we'll just, we'll film with what we got here and hope the files

corrupt. We'll pray.

Okay. As long as you got the cheese.

You like what you see?

I swear to God. I think Mr. Beast copied us when he did his Wendigo video. I

love Mr. Beast.

He's such a good inspiration for us.

Mr.

Beast is going to change the world.

So let's play a game. It's like I Spy, but it's called I Feel, where we just,

you know, just let it all out.

I feel irritated.

Okay, well, you lost that game.

Okay, tell me where to go. Not that one. Not that one. This one. The one with

the oddies going down. Yeah.

Where the hell is this guy?

A lot of woods to get lost in.

Never to be seen again.

Oh, okay. Well, cryptic talk like that, I imagine you have some sort of

premonitions on what's coming our way.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I think I'm getting some.

Yep. Bear shit.

Oh my god, you guys are so hot. Aren't you glad you came?

More bodies, more ghosts.

He's all

yours.

Oh, uh, my dad got those when he thought this place was going to be crawling

with grandkids.

Are you married?

Uh, I was.

Say it loud.

Sing. Whispers.

Happens mostly at night.

Strange noises coming from the woods.

And stuff moves more and more.

Crashing in the back. I grab this light, check it out, and... There

you are.

Was there, like, a storm or anything?

No.

Did you hear anything else?

Nothing. What is that?

EMF.

What?

It's an electromagnetic field reader.

I don't think the trees have electro... Jeremy, Jeremy.

Don't worry about it.

That's why I hired him.

It's a ghost gun.

It's not a ghost gun. Yeah, it's got a serial.

Star Trek thing? Like something from Star Trek?

Let me do the female way, Scotty, all right?

Remember.

Jackson.

Come on.

Hey, Jeremy.

What's with the cross?

My dog.

Oh.

Oh.

Sorry for your loss.

This is it.

Edge of the property.

I don't usually go out past here.

Why is that?

The trees.

Eddie, how we doing?

Tired. Bored.

Kind of going to take a shit.

All right, how long do you think that's going to take?

Like five minutes?

Four would be better, because if you stop and take a whiff, you smell money

burning.

Smells more like Calvin Klein obsession to me.

You bringing up cameras?

Welcome to the 21st century, my friend.

Nice knife.

Oh, yeah?

Yeah, my grandpa bought it for me. He fought in Korea.

Sounds like a good chap.

You gonna put up any more of these?

Uh, yeah. I already set up one over there. There's gonna be one behind the

line. I wanna set up two trail cams. Don't go too deep.

Those woods are bigger than you can imagine, and the sun will go down right

before you know it.

We'll be well done before sundown, sir. Before this, I was actually doing real

estate photography and videography.

I was meaning to ask about that. After this is through, were you interested in

maybe moving?

No.

Okay. Well, I don't know.

this is some good property it's a competitive market and like you'll get a

of exposure from the documentary yeah i don't really want people knowing where i

live okay well that's why you moved but if you have any friends that like uh

i'll be sure to let them know okay cool uh so uh you want a couple of business

cards or anything leave them inside all right

What the hell?

Where'd it go?

Hello?

That's a weird place to take a piss, buddy.

That's not weird at all.

What do you think that was?

Yeah, I think we should get out of here too.

What do you got there?

Oh, I'm just trying to see if the Sennheiser can pick up any of those

noises Jeremy was talking about.

Do you want to hear it?

That's some scary static.

Okay, whatever.

Hey, Eddie.

Jesus, man. What?

You on first block tonight?

I wouldn't miss it for the world.

Well, I'm calling it.

You all need anything?

I don't think so. No, sir, we're good. We're all set up. All right.

Oh, wait, Jeremy. Yeah, there was one thing.

Yeah, I was... What's up with the mannequin?

Mannequin?

Yeah, I saw one propped up against the tree when I put up one of the trail

Hmm. That's dad.

Are you saying your dad is a mannequin?

He would use them. I mean, target practice.

He was a hunter.

What kind of game was he on?

Some kind.

A few years ago, business went under. They...

Gave them to him on the cheap.

Now they're strewn about the property, you know, just a little bit of fun.

Yeah, gotcha.

Good night.

Help yourself to anything in the fridge, by all means.

I can't sleep.

Aren't you supposed to, like, know that already or something?

Yeah, but...

Gotta start a conversation somehow.

I'm sure Jackson's told you about why he's so into all this ghosty stuff.

Mm -mm. Really?

When we were kids, we were in a car accident.

I was in the back, which was where most of the impact was, and so...

I, uh... I died.

I guess for like weeks after the fact, I would talk and

I'd seen our grandfather.

He took my hand and walked me away from the accident.

Our grandfather had been gone for years at that point, but him and Jackson are

really close.

He thinks one of these times he's going to be able to Lift the veil, you know?

And like, talk to somebody that matters.

That I was for.

I'm sure I was just talking.

You know?

It's still traumatic, though.

Yeah.

Yeah, it is.

What's your...

You don't know.

Um... I mean... You saw the security footage just like us?

Both people wander off all the time.

It's not exactly a close encounter.

What about the lights?

The flashlight?

Every high schooler has five dollars and a mean streak.

We have a paranormal epidemic on our hands.

I don't know.

This Jeremy guy seems pretty shaken up.

I have a really weird feeling about him and I just don't think he's telling us

everything.

Coping? Like, what stuff really ever turns out to be?

Some people cope in different ways.

Good morning!

Morning.

Morning. Good morning.

Alright, what's on TV?

Uh, Oprah.

Oprah. Alright, what's going on on Oprah?

Uh, well, there's no Pontiac so far.

Alright, what's on the agenda today, my darling?

Well, we've got walking into the woods, looking through the woods, walking

back from the woods. Oh, okay.

Do you think we're going to find anything interesting in all that?

No.

Alright, now, Arrowhead.

Yeah, I guess this place was like a trading post or something.

That's crazy.

That's kind of cool.

Hey, have you seen my necklace?

I took it off last night before bed. I didn't find it this morning.

Do you think anybody... No.

Yeah. Is this okay for the interview, or how do you want it set up?

Let me show you.

Rachel, it's not in the shot. Get it within...

Just right here. Can I see it again?

You look so small holding it.

I bet she feels small, too.

All right, action!

It was here, in this very spot that we're standing in now, that Theodore

was last seen.

He disappeared into the woods without a trace.

You forgot loving father, husband, etc.

It was in this very spot that we're standing in now that Theodore Schmidt

last seen.

Loving father, husband, father.

A six -day intensive... Line!

Action!

Three years ago to this day, a rescue team aided by local townsfolk conducted

six -day intens... Intensive?

Intensive.

Search for this man.

Search for this man.

You forgot to mention the agent.

Agent?

Yeah. Can you tell me the fucking feds were here?

They showed up, took over, cops followed them around, something about

jurisdiction.

Mother Teresa on a holiday.

Are you still speeding?

Dude, take a look at that.

That's uh Guys

did you hear the one about the wooden whistle?

No, no.

What was wrong with the wooden whistle?

Don't tell me.

Uh, wooden whistle.

Wooden whistle? The wooden whistle.

Wooden whistle, I got you, okay.

Alright. Yeah, it took me a bit.

I don't know, maybe he was just, like, nervous or scared to come out.

Too full of shit, most likely.

Come on.

Easy. He's been through a lot.

You're buying the?

You're all buying the?

I'd buy it if I could afford it, Stephanie.

Alright, look.

We are in the hole for a lot of money right now over this little excursion,

I don't want a repeat of that fucking chupacabra incident.

More like lack of incident.

It was the lack of story that was the problem there. Forget about the mythical

rodent for a second.

What we have now is a good story, so let's go and get that, alright?

Okay, thanks for holding.

Hold up.

Didn't Jeremy say there weren't any roads back here?

Something a pattern yet?

Who's that guy?

Fucker.

There's groupies out here?

Mountain lions, bobcats, lynxes, porcupines, honey badgers, minks,

black bears, brown bears, and black widows. Great.

Yeah, but don't worry about it, though.

None of those species like groups of humans.

Nothing does.

What? What's that?

Yeah, I've seen this before. Yesterday.

But what is it?

I don't know.

It's got to be something though, right?

I mean, yeah. Assuming it's not just some sort of property marker or

I don't see any pink tape out here.

Besides, that's got to be a new cut.

It's too fresh.

Oh shit, guys. The tree expert thinks it's not very old.

Maybe we should get a second opinion on that.

What does the EMF reading say?

I don't know, it's not really working out here.

Okay.

It's getting dark. We should head back?

Yeah. Okay.

Alright, so the way that I see it, is we're all on the same plane of existence

okay so everybody everything you know humans animals we all have an electric

current and that's what makes our bodies walk talk think and breathe what about

things that go bump in the night things that aren't quite there maybe something

stepped into our frequency for a moment or maybe we stepped into theirs just

think of it as like a handshake between worlds okay nothing crazy

Kind of like, think happy thoughts.

We're gonna do the opposite of that.

My father going missing isn't the only strange thing that's happened here.

After he vanished, an intelligence agency took over the

case.

Three days in.

After six, they closed it.

To make the process easier, I moved up here with my wife and my son,

Ryan, as we continued the search.

Continue please.

At first...

At

first what?

At first... Things were normal.

But... Something happened to my boy.

Came home from work and my wife told me that

Ryan had been

hurting my dog Charlotte.

Beating her.

Oh my god.

We thought it was a phase so we tried to get him some help but

Weekend. I came home to find my wife sobbing.

Ryan had... Ryan had

hung Charlotte from a tree.

He was different.

I looked in his eyes and I knew he had changed. The wood changed him.

My wife accused me of doing something to him.

She took him and left.

Left me here.

After they left is when I first started to hear the noises.

Guys, I got something.

Just a nibble, but she seems safe.

Do you think your dad is really dead?

After all this time, he must be.

Do you blame yourself for what happened to your son?

I think that... Guys, guys, guys, these EMF readings are off the charts. You

could fry an egg on them.

All right, good. Lock it down. We're not done?

Hey, this was never going to be easy.

You're going to have to knuckle down here.

Give it a break.

Enough is enough.

If we stop now, there'll be no point to any of this.

All right, Eddie.

Get the spirit box.

The spirit box?

Okay, yeah, I think this is good.

All right, so I'm only going to be able

to maybe understand one word, maybe a few phrases every once in a while if

we're lucky. I don't know about this.

You brought it here for a reason, didn't you?

Dustin.

Um... Rope... Under... What was that thing?

Uh... Rock and roll?

Alright.

Do you know what we want?

Yeah.

Do you know my friend Jeremy?

House.

Wood.

Yes, that's right.

He lived here.

Do you know who lived here before him?

Do you know Jeremy's father?

Boring.

What's boring?

You.

He?

Well, I'm sorry. I thought we could be friends.

Haven't made up mind.

So you're saying there's still a chance?

Do you have any friends?

Girl.

You have a girlfriend?

Girl.

Can you please be more specific? I don't know what you mean.

Steph.

What about him?

Okay.

New angle.

What about Jeremy's son?

Do you know what happened to him?

Mine.

Where is he now?

Not far.

Where?

What did you do to him?

Hey, take it easy. Take me to him!

Take me to him!

Hey, hey!

Played game.

Games and gifts.

Can we play?

Take off.

Take off what?

Rock.

My wristwatch?

Dump.

I think it wants you to put your watch on the stump.

Alright, I'll bite.

I don't like this.

It'll be fine.

I don't know.

It's kind of fun.

Supercover eat your heart out

Turn

around Okay

Bingo. Oh, shit.

Good trade.

Good trade.

Yeah.

Yeah, that's a good trade.

I guess so.

Trade.

Destiny.

What?

Rachel, Rachel, Rachel.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

The signal's gone.

That's the written, ladies and gentlemen.

Okay, okay, okay. What do we do? What do we do?

All right.

Jeremy, man.

That was marvelous. Can you believe we got all that on camera? Hey, whatever.

Don't touch me. God damn it.

I need to... I need to think.

Okay, man.

Okay, I'm freaking the fuck out. This shit is too much.

Hey,

this shit is exactly what we came here for.

Did he tell you he had a kid?

Oh, is that your takeaway from all of this?

I mean, for once, can you see the bigger picture here? We just got irrefutable

evidence of the paranormal right here, on this camera.

It isn't about us.

This is only about you.

I'm done.

I'm sorry to interrupt my background.

What the fuck happened?

We're splitting a couch tonight.

Well, guys, look where I just woke up.

Yeah, and I thought the couch was bad.

Yeah, oh, yeah, I should put the land all right guys look where I just woke up

Yeah, and you thought the couch was bad

For the frogs

That's gonna think I've cheated on her the

frog Yeah civilization at last

Which way do I go?

Usual suspects.

Eddie and Rachel.

Oh, when I get back, oh shit, I've got the most embarrassing footage you can

imagine. Oh yeah, that shit's going on the big screen.

Big screen for Mindfreak.

Criss Angel Mindfreak motherfucker.

Oh, look at this dick. Fucking terrifying.

Wow.

Better run away from that shit.

No, they're going to run away from me. I'm going to be the scariest thing in

this documentary.

Chupacabra can eat my ass. Think about that car crash back in...

Shit.

Shit. Hello?

Oh, hey, hey, hey!

So there's a whole lot of nothing until around 12.

And then you see this.

Sleepwalking? No way.

Camera doesn't lie, does it?

When have you ever been a sleepwalker?

There's a first time for everything.

Hey, move over. It's not even the best time.

Wait, wait. Go back?

Yeah. What's that?

What the fuck is that?

Come on, come here.

Is that... Is that...

Okay, so...

Bath water gets a little warm and baby wants to pull the plug, huh?

Are you fucking high?

Okay, and admittedly a bit of spooky shit, but that's why we're here, right?

Or am I wrong?

Jack, that looked exactly like you.

How do you explain that?

If I could explain it to you, we'd pack our shit up and leave right now.

This is a legitimate encounter.

This is huge.

What about me?

This shit gives me the creeps. I want to go home.

We can't go home.

This is the closest we've ever been.

for something?

My lens cap. I can't remember where I put the damn thing.

I didn't realize you carried one. I thought you liked to shoot au naturel.

I might have to now.

Did you check your back pocket?

Yeah, everything except the prison pocket.

I'll get to that.

Guys!

Guys, come check this out!

All right, what's up?

Take a look.

It's like some sort of crawl space or something.

Yeah, it looks like it, but it's covered by this board and, uh... Oh, my God.

Yeah, you got any kind of read on that?

I don't know, man, but I don't like it.

I think someone's got to go down there.

No way.

No way.

Hell no.

Here, take this.

Why do I always have to do this?

Just have a quick look. See what you can find.

I got a feeling there's something down there.

Good? Yeah.

There we go.

Thanks, babe.

Yo, I found something.

Eddie, what do you see?

Eddie!

I don't know. It's like a book.

Hello?

Are they doing any help?

Hello?

Get me out! Get me out of here!

Get me out!

Pull me out! Pull me out! Pull me out!

What happened? Are you okay?

What the fuck? I don't know. There's something down there.

What's that?

I don't know, man.

Hey! What are you doing?

Oh, we were just getting footage.

Were you digging under there?

No, we're just looking at... Hey! Don't go under my house.

Ever. Okay.

You got that?

Yeah.

Yeah.

At first blush, you'll notice this mark.

The same as the symbol that we've been seeing carved into the trees around the

property.

It seems connected to whatever paranormal phenomena that is assailing

place. For those of you watching at home, you should know that nobody in the

crew, myself included, has yet opened or read this.

One thing that's certain is that this is some sort of journal.

However, its pages are waterlogged, and much of the ink has bled through.

I'm hoping we can find something legible.

Alright, I think I found something.

After all my attempts at congreg - communication,

my efforts have been rewarded.

However, my success brings me no joy.

I fear she is not who she says she is.

She?

I don't know.

The next passage is too far gone for me to make anything out.

Let's go forward another couple of pages.

I am in hell.

I hear her song coming from the woods at night.

There is no path back from here.

Yesterday, there... We found this underneath the house, and I thought it

would help us figure out what's going on.

You should have told me about this.

Well, I'm telling you right now, if it's anything personal, we can cut it out. I

think it belonged to your father.

Do you know what this means?

What's he doing?

Well, he's sure his shit isn't watering his flowers.

Shit, he's gonna burn it.

Wait, wait, wait!

Danny!

Rachel. Let me die!

No, Jeremy! Let me die! Stop!

Stop! Stop! Stop! Stop!

She's laughing at us!

She's laughing at us!

Jeremy! Stop!

Shit, man.

Fuck!

Guys, there's something wrong with this dude.

No shit!

How is he?

He's sleeping.

I don't know how, but he's sleeping.

Okay, um, I think it's time we start asking some hard questions here, guys.

Isn't that what we've been doing?

Asking the hard questions? No, Jack, we're talking about someone's mental

here, okay?

This is just... This is not journalism anymore, okay? I don't know what this

Okay. If no one else is going to say it, I will. I think we should talk about

aborting. No.

No chance.

Alright, let me get this straight.

We're in the middle of the greatest discovery of this century.

And you yellow fucks are trying to pull the plug right now.

Like, this whole conversation is ridiculous.

Where's the line, Jackson? What happens when we can't come back anymore?

I think we may have already crossed that.

Alright, as far as I'm concerned, I'm going to see this project to the end.

if I have to strongman this entire production. To what end, Jack? To what

The finish line, Rachel. I think that'll work for us.

What about you?

Do you have anything to contribute or help out around the conversation?

You're kidding, right?

I... What was that?

Did you... Shut up. Just listen.

There's something on the roof.

What do we do? Now.

Not you.

I'll be right back. Hey, just listen.

Can't see anything.

Eddie, you got your light?

Alright,

where is it?

You're still on the roof.

Keep going.

Yo, the chimney!

What is that? What is that? What is it?

Where is it?

Jackson, where are you going? Turn on the fucking light!

All right, we got it. All right, we got it. It's time to go.

It's time to fucking go.

Just death, you would not believe.

Some sort of freak on the roof.

Is that any?

Stephanie, we got to get out of here.

Wait, what's going on?

I don't know. It won't fucking start.

Okay, let me try. Let me try. Let me try.

Shit.

Oh shit!

Okay, okay.

Let me see, let me see, let me see.

Oh my god. What's wrong with it? I don't know, I don't know!

Stephanie.

Stephanie!

Okay, okay, okay.

Where are you going? To get Jeremy's car. We're going to take his car.

Jeremy's gone.

Who cares? Where the hell is Stephanie?

I thought she was with you.

I came in to get a light for the camera and she wasn't here.

What are you doing?

I'm going to get her.

With that thing out there? No, no, no.

What? The cops are saying that there's trees blocking the roads, they can't get

here until they clear it? What? I, I, um, okay, okay, okay.

This fucker has to have spare keys somewhere.

I can't stay here. She couldn't have gone far in the dark.

Keep it.

Stephanie!

Steph!

Stephanie!

She's got to freeze out here.

Jackson will find her.

What is that Stephanie

Shit

I'm here with Jackson.

Yeah, I can't find the keys, but I see Stephanie.

Stephanie, yeah, I see her. She's at the swing set. Get back now.

Stephanie!

Stephanie!

Hold this.

Hey.

Oh, my God.

You okay? Are you hurt?

We got to go now.

Come on.

I'm so sorry.

What's going on? What's going on? I don't know. I couldn't even stop. All

Did she hurt?

Okay, babe.

Give me a wet rag.

What happened? I don't know, Eddie.

Okay, I just don't understand what's going on. Eddie, please.

Eddie. What?

Turn off the fucking camera.

Okay, what are we looking at here? I mean, like, what are our options?

Cars are fucked.

Cops still have to clear the roads or the trees.

A few hours minimum.

Okay.

Okay, so we hike out. In the dark?

Yeah, I mean, we find the road and then we just go... Whoa, what do you mean?

Hike? You think she can even walk like this?

Okay.

Eddie, Eddie and I can go.

We'll go and we'll find people and we'll come back and... I think Jackson's

right, okay?

We're 50 miles from the nearest town, and there's that fucking psycho running

around out there.

Yeah, exactly, and Jeremy's out there. Who gives a shit?

What about him, Rach?

For all we know, he sabotaged the fucking cars, and he's probably behind

this shit.

Okay, so what do we do? We just sit here?

We just sit here and wait for the cops?

It just kept moving and it was like, I tried to stop it. Stephanie!

Hey! Let's go! Come on! No! What are you doing? Hey, look at me!

No! I can't afford to lose anyone else right now. Hey, I can't afford to lose
