All language subtitles for The Creeping Darkness-Power

[Music]

these stories are inspired by the actual

case files of the office of scientific

investigation and research

did you hear something

hear what

you had too much wine [ __ ]

a sound from the living room

listen

somebody out there

[Music]

giggles

okay

what in the name of god is i don't know

be careful

he's like some kind of shadow

right away

[Music]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

so

scottophobia fear of the dark

in this age fear of the dark seems a

primitive neurosis a throwback to a time

of superstition and unreason

i mean really isn't darkness just the

absence of light

but what if absence of light becomes

something more

what if it becomes a darkness visible an

almost living growing absolute form

threatening to consume our homes our

town

our world

file number 77110 case manager curtis

rollins initial case log federal and

local authorities have placed this

complaint at the highest security level

our team is proceeding to the site of

this phenomenon

the initial police reports are fairly

inconclusive

what about the advanced video footage of

the site that professor alvarez sent us

he doesn't reveal much

so far there is no rational explanation

for the phenomenon

note how it appears to be cut off by the

floor

it seems to originate under the house

and then project up through the floor

and the professor who shot this footage

didn't offer any theories

everything from a bizarre low-lying

cloud formation to the discovery of

neutrinos to some form of black hole on

earth it all adds up to a dense lack of

light reflection and no apparent cause

you know i once did a paper on

photosynthesis and we used to run

experiments trying to reduce photon

reflection it's basically impossible to

simulate

algorithmic students reached only one

definite conclusion

and that was it appears to be growing

[Applause]

we've been reviewing the footage you

videotaped quite incredible isn't it

you could say that

this is so

forgive me indescribable

next

[Applause]

unlike anything i have ever seen or

heard of

i'm gonna begin with interviews and

hopefully get a sense of what we're up

against before we go inside

[Music]

why did it attract him of all of us

he's just a little boy

it made no sound none at all

just a dark wall spreading up from the

floor

anything that went with the darkness was

gone

without a trace

anything

why this happened to my home

to my family

no i cannot know out here we don't get

very many complicated investigations

senior relatives showed my partner and i

to the room of the disturbance

i have been an officer of the law for 15

years but nothing could have prepared me

for what i saw huge blackness like

something alive when i saw my flashlight

at it no light was visible through it at

all sir i have seen many things in my

time but this defies description

testimony from the witnesses is

consistent across the board this

event to them defies comprehension

yes but their stories all seem to match

they all describe a growing wall of

blackness impenetrable by light and

testing found no toxicity or buying

contamination in any of them that's

safety precaution the richness family

will be moved from their house

indefinitely but curtis have we

determined an initial case objective of

this the argentine government has

requested identification and termination

of phenomenon in the strongest possible

terms

they want this thing gone what just like

that we don't even know what it is

can't we just wait until we know a

little bit more about it i know it seems

premature but we don't have much choice

they perceive this complaint as a threat

unless we can find a way to identify and

control it

we have to consider its termination

great

[Music]

[Music]

visuals coming too cleanly

we're inside and proceeding to the event

site any irregular reading

negative

be ready everyone

let's proceed with caution

you have a visual

it's totally opaque no way penetration

at all

what are we picking up on the scans

minimal readings

displacement margins are inconclusive

there's no chemical components

no measurable mass

it's almost beautiful

perfect

peter keep your distance

are you reading anything out of the

ordinary

nothing

except

confirmed

it's getting bigger

these are the results from the geodetic

surveys

as well as the geothermic and

geomagnetic environmental scans within

100 kilometer radius

they all indicate

a large growing black mass in the

vicinity of the ritzler villa still

nothing conclusive on a possible point

of origin

you know i think we had to send in a

remote probe see what kind of direct

data we can get from within the mass

itself

i agree

set it up for 1600 hours

the argentine government is anxious to

see some progress

all right let's keep going

[Music]

okay

visuals are up sensors online

[Music]

anything happen yet

it's no hazmat no talks traces

no i have normal concentrations of

energy fields nothing even slightly on

kosher

all right everybody set probe entering

the phenomenon in three

two

one

probe has entered the anomaly no visuals

at all

readings are fluctuating we have a

problem something's disrupting the

signal is it a malfunction

[Music]

12 systems down we've lost telemetry

bring it back

i can he's gone

this region has a history of geophysical

and environmental phenomena none related

in any way to this particular anomaly

keep digging

but be subtle about it curtis

i want to take a team in into the mass

peter we just lost a probe in there we

need answers

we can't afford to lose any

investigators well fine i'll go by

myself there's no evidence we can

maintain contact so that we can get you

out once you've gotten in the look all

suit up in the full gear according to

the readings there are no ratings peter

it's too risky we should just send in

another pro right and then we'll just

lose it again look i've logged hundreds

of hours in toxic environments it won't

be a problem the gear will protect me

trust me

curtis

[Music]

the ultimate threat this phenomenon

poses overrides any of our personal

safety

you sure about this

hey i didn't join up to play it safe

well let's keep going

i don't know if you're being brave i'm

just stupid asha

not pondering the imponderables get back

in a flash if you spent anything strange

zero gravity vacuum pull anything you

get the hell out of there okay relax

[Applause]

this is the cool stuff scientists get to

do

[Applause]

[Music]

visuals are good

we'll keep your vitals online any

elevated readings and you're out of

there

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

so

[Music]

okay let's rock and roll

[Music]

[Music]

history of transmission is clean enough

what do you see

nothing no depth perception light waves

aren't even registering in the

environment

can't read the instruments

any sign of the probe i'm sorry i can't

see myself i'm coming out

sorry curse

satisfied peter sir i think you should

see this it's an uplink transmission

it's being rerouted to us from

headquarters via satellite

they found the same phenomenon in china

same configuration as ours curtis are we

talking about an outbreak

no not exactly

perhaps something much worse what do you

mean

what's up number one

this new occurrence is here in ningbo

zijang province ningbo is the exact

polar opposite to huhoy

which opens up the possibility that

instead of two separate occurrences we

could be dealing with one

very large very

dangerous phenomenon

[Music]

and you're rolling

if i may ask

your investigation how does it um

slowly

we are trying everything in our power to

understand this manifestation

it's a little frustrating

perhaps this event is something we are

not meant to understand

why is that

[Applause]

you have brought all your scientific

knowledge here and have found nothing to

explain it

these things take time

we haven't done everything we can yet

believe me we'll find out what this

thing is and you won't stop until you do

will you

nothing

we want sir

i admire your passions in your that you

believe you can find the truth

you don't

i believe there are some things

we simply cannot know

[Applause]

[Music]

file number 77110 case log update a

bravo team has been dispatched to study

the second occurrence they will link

their investigation to

[Applause]

ours established operations here data

seems to be identical to alpha sites

phenomenon growing at the same rate

22.6 centimeters per hour and increasing

exponentially according to our numbers

huhui will be consumed within seven days

it's still growing our projections match

alpha seven days to eighty-eight percent

lingo region in darkness

continue monitoring the anomaly next

contact in twelve hours alpha team up

i can't let this phenomenon spread

the stakes are high zero photosynthesis

means zero sustainable plant life which

means zero agriculture oh let's not give

up peter we haven't asked quite enough

questions yet for one

why would it start here

night and day

to bring darkness to the land

in the local kichwa dialect pachao mama

means goddess of the earth and putin

pacha i believe means time of darkness

but there's no evidence that what this

woman's talking about has anything to do

with the phenomenon i think we should

run a series of advanced eradication

procedures uh elf positive ions

acoustics flux the environment

absolutely

should we just discount the folklore

angle i mean the spaniards have been

writing about this stuff since the 1600s

they recorded the kichwa belief that

eclipses had something to do with this

time of darkness

i think there might be more to these

legends than just fiction

tasha it is intriguing

but the current rate of expansion we

don't have time to chase down ancient

myths run the tests for now let's go

with the elf but if all procedures fail

we go with a linear accelerator

file number 77110 case log update

we've tried various eradication

procedures temperature decrease oxygen

removal and microwave bombardment

without success

we are now attempting to flux the

environment with dlf transmissions

[Music]

3 900 angstroms and steady

turn up the frequency

it's been hours still no change in the

phenomenon

[Music]

evacuation of surrounding area

curtis

you sure about this

we have to try every option

i know it's risky

but i don't have a choice

as long as all the civilians are clear

well it's your call

scares the hell out of me

[Music]

the situation is getting pretty tense

chinese authorities are dealing with it

as a military emergency they closed the

area and expelled all foreign

journalists we're working under

extremely close supervision so there's

no time to lose we have a green light

here for the pla bravo team understood

stand by ningbo

[Music]

case manager's log

we've cleared the area of all personnel

to protect them

from the effects of the portable linear

accelerator

irrigation to commence at all 600 hours

pla position

request clearance to be in countdown

countdown sequence

you all said peter

three minutes till linear acceleration

[Music]

previously

[Music]

a whole countdown pla we've got a

problem

it's the probe indicators

hold on remote probe is back online

[Music]

curtis bravo team is reporting but um it

doesn't make sense the phenomenon has

disappeared

the anomaly has disappeared

shut the accelerator down now

double team confirm we have not repeat

not run linear acceleration do you copy

powering down copy

sir reading's fluctuating on all scans

of the area

let's take a look

[Music]

[Applause]

just like that

[Applause]

file number 77110 case manager curtis

rollins analog entry

theories as the origin of the phenomenon

range from it being a bizarre geological

anomaly to the possibility of

extraterrestrial phenomena

one theory speculates a rare

non-gravitational black hole originating

inside the earth's core

but we have found no conclusive evidence

as to how the manifestation actually

occurred curtis robbins

out

[Music]

was this phenomenon man-made or truly

supernatural

what was this growing blackness

well the office of scientific

investigation and research never could

determine the exact cause of this

amazing occurrence

and was it merely an isolated event or

was it an introduction of something more

to come

perhaps those of us who are afraid of

the dark a very good reason to be

when i talked to you last week i thought

i made that clear

yeah

no i know i'm

i don't

because i promise to take my daughter to

the park that's why

look why can't you organize a schedule

that gives me more than one day off at a

time

look look i have to go yeah i know i

i'll see you tomorrow bye

[Music]

do you know what time it is

it her candy for supper she also had a

hamburger

time for best sweetie

i have to be at work at seven tomorrow

that means that lisa has to be at the

daycare at 6 30. mornings are hard

enough as it is you just screwed up her

whole sleep schedule yeah well if you

were a proper mother and stayed at home

then the scheduling crap wouldn't be a

problem would it

maybe she'd be better off living with me

[Music]

thank you

[Music]

[Music]

the office of scientific investigation

and research has logged hundreds of

hours researching psychokinesis the

ability to move objects without

physically touching them

now psychokinetic ability would for most

of us be an extraordinary gift

but for elena bostwick an overworked

single mother trying to balance the

conflicting demands of parenthood and

career

this power which she always took for

granted had become unwelcome

now when elena lost control of her

psychokinetic ability it in fact became

an extreme hazard

and it came to threaten the elements in

her life which she most deeply cared

about the safety and custody of her

daughter lisa

brian was my only problem maybe i could

hang on

but nothing much else seems to be going

right

at the cutbacks at the hospital i have

to work double shifts on top of that i

have to be a mother to lisa i i do the

laundry makes the meals

and then every so often just to

antagonize me

broadening me he threatens to super

custody of lisa hmm that must be very

upsetting

he hasn't been part of my life for a

long time now he's never made a single

support payment

his power trip his way of getting back

at me

oh no

oh

no i'm afraid that if he finds out about

it he'll use it as ammunition to take

lisa away from me

he hates me enough to do that

let me find out about what

i can move objects around without

touching them turn things off and on

it's never been a big deal i've always

been able to control it

it's just that

a couple of minutes ago was

things went crazy dishes exploded

glass was flying

lisa could have been hurt

but you have to believe me i would never

do anything to hurt her i i don't

understand you you move things around

i've i've always kept it to myself

especially now with lisa

i don't want the people to think that

her mother's odd

no some kind of freak

do you um

hear voices also

why is it

no of course not

you think i'm crazy

it's iconic and then

sometimes the mind reacts to stress in

odd ways it runs away with itself

delusions

[Music]

[Music]

can't you just give me some medication

to calm me down help keep things under

control

and i i would like to help you but i

have

never

handled anything like this before

elena i know of an organization that

could analyze this part of yours tested

i work 65 hours a week i have a little

girl to take care of i don't have time

to run off to some lab to be picked and

probed

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

great great great now we need a new

radiator

lisa

[Music]

dr haynes yes

this is elena bostwick

that organization you told me about

file 10106 case manager marion smith

we're exploring claims of psychokinetic

activity by elena bostic age 31 where

examining the subject's house and

immediate terrain preliminary interviews

are underway to be followed with

psychological and physiological

assessments

my daughter has always been special had

this

power i guess you'd call it ever since

she was a kid

don't talk about it much

we brought her up better one of the

surgeons was giving elena a really hard

time you know wanted her to be in three

places at once

the surgeon really laid into her

suddenly the water cooler starts

following

power like that can mess up a kid's mind

real good i'm not whole tank just

exploded

freaked all of us out

most of all i thought she'd kind of

forgotten about using it but

lately she says it's been almost out of

control wearing her plenty

[Applause]

is

[Music]

very convincing

now seismic tests show no anomalous

geological activity or disturbances

whatsoever it's solid as a rock

if things were flying around that house

it wasn't due to any earth tremor dr

corliss what's your impression of miss

bostik

excessive workload

and being a single mother all is up to

massive personal tension any indication

of fraud or hoax she seems to be able to

control certain aspects of her

environment we still need to determine

the extent of the power and that glass

didn't break from impact it imploded on

its own let's assess that abilities

under more controlled conditions

i'll contact headquarters set up a test

site

thanks for taking care of this one's

gone dad oh excuse no problem

you sure you want to do this i'm not

sure about anything anymore the only

thing i know is that i need help

professional help

but you kept it under control before

well it's not under control now

case log update

after initial testing we felt it

necessary to control elena's environment

down to the smallest detail

a full range of experiments should

determine the extent of the subject's

power

we'll be using a controlled i o chamber

to monitor the subject's reactions

during intense psychogenetic testing

elena we'll be with you every step of

the way

[Music]

[Music]

file 10106 case manager marian smith

caselog update we've completed 16

separate phases of site testing

including physiological and

psychological stimuli altered

environment and electromatrix

interaction

e

l

e

[Music]

and

a

that's very impressive elena

i used to do this in playground when i

was a child

i spent a lot of time alone as a kid

dr corliss says that with one s or two

two

thank you very much

but there's something else i'd like you

to do for me first

[Music]

it's for uh flying debris

we don't want you to get hurt

i don't understand

we need to see you consciously create an

outburst uh implode a cup and saucer

like you did at home

and we are going to monitor your

biostats

oh okay

if i can

anytime you're ready

[Music]

[Applause]

got it on tape

[Music]

your skills are quite powerful

have you always had this much control

over your pk abilities i've never tried

to do so many things before what we need

to know is exactly why the volatile

outburst happens we're fairly sure the

outburst stem from various forms of

subconscious stress in your life

we're going to run some more tests so

you can't help me we will certainly try

doctor with her pk ability what about a

level 9 visual stress test can she

handle that doctor i believe so

as long as we can regress her into a

deep enough hypnotic state then let's

proceed

we'll begin tomorrow

hi dad

uh i know i'll pay them when i get home

oh and if the hospital calls again uh

uh tell them i'll

make up my shift next week

i know it'll have to wait

friends lawyer

no no i i'll deal with it when i get

back

dad just stalls him

please

okay bye

elena

remember you must try to stay calm

how do these images make you feel

try to be specific for each picture

[Music]

happiness

time

uh

anger

resentment

pressure

irritation frustration

that's a hard job why won't anybody give

me any pain

it is hard isn't it heart rate nobody

wants to make it easy for you do they

i'm doing my best

to let this take

[Music]

i got an overload here we got an

overload

[Music]

well it was worth it in a way it gave us

some insight as to why these events

occur

everyone reacts differently to anger

your psychokinetic rages are directly

linked to stresses in your life check

the law supplies it is possible that

your subconscious accesses your pk

abilities

that's right

can you cure me

there's really no such thing as a cure

but we can help you to maintain control

of your power i want this power gone

eliminate

elena

i know the power terrifies you

but it's also a part of who you are

what you have is special i don't want to

be special i want to be a mother and a

nurse

a normal person

file 10106 case log update elena has

been undergoing stress management

training visualization techniques

combined with meditation exercises

supervised by dr corliss our goal is to

help her find methods by which she can

maintain control over her abilities in

any given situation

bubbles to the surfaces

let it go

[Music]

you are working your third night shift

in emergency they bring in a cardiac

patient in severe distress

you immediately prepare half a milligram

of digestion the attending physician

misreads the chart and orders you to

administer triple the dose

he insists

if you speak up you lose your job

your daughter's welfare depends on that

paycheck but a patient's life is on the

line

what do you do

[Music]

i would rather lose my job

before allowing a patient

[Music]

she's worked hard

let's hope it pays off

this is the big one

indeed

i remember all his faces

my friends

i've been so long since i saw any of

them

and

you feel

lonely

deserted

i do

but it's okay

i am myself

[Music]

that's it

relax your hands

open your mind

good work elena

casey 10106 case manager marilyn smith

case blog update day 9 having

successfully completed 20 separate

psychokinetic tests

and

stress reduction techniques we have

concluded that elena bostic's ability to

control her power is for now within

acceptable margins

she has agreed to remain in regular

contact with our office i agree okay

orange that's the car a nice gentle cat

[Music]

and how about some little whiskers

okay

sweetie what are they

hi daddy hey lisa

there is a doorbell you know

put that figure out

hmm there you go again

telling me what to do

when you're in my house yes

suing for custody of lisa

do what you want

huh

you want to take me to court take me to

court

[Music]

there we go

[Music]

anymore will you

mommy what about grocery

[Music]

huh

[Music]

through her work with the osir elena

bostwick learned how to manage her anger

and in turn control her psychokinetic

outbursts

but far more importantly for elena she

empowered herself to deal effectively

with the kinds of stresses that we all

face and ensure that her most precious

loved one her daughter lisa will always

be with her
