(DOOR KNOCKING)
Bring her in.
- Is this the girl?
- Amanda Peterson.
- Why is her face covered?
- No!
Her eyes are sensitive to light.
Even at night?
Has her father been found?
No, not yet.
We expanded our search
without any leads.
It's impossible to
know where he is.
Can you save her?
We will do what we can.
The Lord is powerful
within these walls.
Sister?
Take Amanda to the third floor.
Keep her away from
the other children
and make sure her
door remains locked.
Yes, Father.
Have faith in
the Lord, my child.
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
(SISTER GASPING)
(AMANDA GASPING)
Oh, I'm so sorry.
Do you wanna play a game?
It's much too late for that.
It's time for bed.
Daddy didn't
wanna play either.
What happened to your father?
AMANDA: We wanna
play hide and seek.
We?
Yes, me and my friend.
Who is your friend?

- Now we're recording.
- Good.
This is Father Wes from
St Petersburg Orphanage.
The date is June 6th,
1966 at the time of 7 p.m.
I've asked Father Thomas to
assist me with Amanda Peterson,
who has properly secured and
is being lit by candlelight.
Do you know why
you're here, Amanda?
I need you to answer
yes or no, Amanda.
- Yes.
- Why are you here, Amanda?
AMANDA: You're trying
to take my friend away.
FATHER THOMAS: And
who is your friend?
AMANDA: Daddy didn't
play by the rules.
FATHER THOMAS:
What rules, Amanda?
AMANDA: You have
to play in the dark.
He doesn't like the light.
It hurts him just like me.
We're the same.
(HARD ROCK MUSIC)
(MUFFLED CROSSTALK)
Beer?
I've got one.
- Oh, okay.
- Look who it is.
- Hey, sis.
- Hi!
What's goin' on?
- You brought Becca.
- Yeah.
Finally convinced her
come along with us, tonight.
Of course, the
more the merrier.
- What's up, Todd?
- How're you doin'?
- Good to see you.
- Welcome.
- Hey.
- Hey.
Good to see you.
Where are Adam and Shane?
They said they'd
be runnin' late.
Surprise, surprise.
Well let's get started.
I have a new location that
will make up for the last one.
(BOTH INQUISITIVE HUMMING)
Ooh no way, we
made an orphanage?
Yeah, this place looks huge.
It is.
It's got three stories,
it has a worship area,
a cellar, a courtyard.
Security?
Yes, every two hours.
This place is so big and
our time is so limited,
we're gonna have to split
up to cover the most area.
Why was it abandoned?
I'm not really sure why.
I came up mostly
empty-handed in my research.
The building's been abandoned
for nearly 50 years.
Sometime in the late 60s,
there was a commotion
about the orphanage.
It was rumored that employees
and children were going missing.
Eventually the church
stepped in and shut it down
and no one has been in it since.
(GASPING)
Where's our big shout out?
You're late.
Hello.
Muah, thank you.
- We brought stuff.
- Well that's good.
What'd we miss?
Well, Kate was telling us
about the abandoned orphanage.
Ooh, oldie but a goodie.
- You know it?
- Of course.
Thank you.
My mom used to try
to use that shit on me
and scare me when
I was a little kid.
We could see what a
wonderful job it did.
Why are we talkin' about it?
Katie's officially made it
our next urban explorer site.
All right.
To the urban explorers.
What society has left behind.
- Discarded.
- Forgotten.
ALL: Allowed for
nature to take back
and left for us to explore!
(EVERYONE SHOUTING)
All right, eat up, we got to
get our eight hours tonight.
Guys before we break
off and eat and all that,
I wanna say something
'cause you're all here
and you're all like my family,
so I can't think of a
better time to do this.
I know it's only
been six months,
but I feel like I've
known you forever.
I loved you since the
first moment I saw you
and I can't imagine
another day in my life
without you as my partner.
Becca,
will you go on the
adventure with me?
Yes.
(EVERYONE CHEERING)
- Oh yeah!
- Put it in her!
Okay we need a picture,
we need a picture.
Okay we need a
picture of these now.
- Why?
- Really?
Do you guys seriously need
to remember this moment
- for the rest of your lives?
- Yes, we do.
- Picture time.
- Immortalize it in a photo.
All right, all right.
Okay.
Okay, everyone.
- Ready?
- Ready.
Say cheese.
ALL: Cheese!
Hey Kate, we're all set up.
Let's go.
What's wrong?
Nothing.
Okay,
I'm not stupid.
I know that look you get when
something's bothering you.
What is it?
Ooh, I get it.
Get what?
I saw how you reacted
when Todd proposed to Becca.
Do you not like Becca?
No, of course I do.
It's just that was
the very first time
I've ever heard my
brother mention marriage
and we tell each
other everything.
So to hear it the first time
with all of you felt shocking,
like he didn't want his sister
to be a part of that decision.
Like what else is
he not telling me?
Okay, you're way
overthinking it.
He's your brother.
He's not just gonna cut
you out of his life.
It'll be good.
Now put on a smile
and let's go check out
this amazing location
you found for us tonight.
- Let's do it.
- Let's go.
(CRICKETS CHIRPING)
(FOREBODING MUSIC)
(CHAINS RATTLING)
(EERIE MUSIC)
Guys, let's take a
picture before we head in.
(MUFFLED CROSSTALK)
Ready?
Okay, I'm coming.
Say cheese.
(CROW CAWING)
Thanks.
Okay you guys, side entrance
is right over there.
Let's go.
(MUFFLED WHISPERING)
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
(EVERYONE SCREAMING)
Oh Gods, it's
not that serious.
Speak for yourself.
Hey Ryan, help
me out with this.
Becca.
- Hey, Becca.
- Hey, Becca.
First exploration?
Hey, who's got
the walkie talkies?
Oh no, I knew I
forgot something.
You didn't.
I am sorry, guys.
Honest mistake.
It's a safety precaution.
Well, safety's for losers.
Well, I mean...
(BOTH CHUCKLING)
Calm your tits, we brought them.
What's the matter?
Scared you're gonna get lost?
No, this place is huge.
We can't be wanderin'
around without them.
Maybe that's God's way
of thinning out the herd.
Survival of the fittest.
I'm sure you two would
be the first to go.
Okay okay, I see
how it is. (GRUNTS)
Check these, check these.
It's got to be more
of a deep bend.
- Deep and...
- Bend.
That's functional.
Completely functional strength.
- There we go.
- There it is, got it.
You guys are pretty gay.
Haven't you ever
heard of a bromance?
Yeah, who's the bigger spoon?
Me.
- Dude.
- Right?
- Not this week.
- Oh that L.
- Yeah.
- All right all right, lovebirds
you're very cute but
ready to get goin'?
I got hour 50.
Get ready to synchronize
in three, two, one.
(WATCHES BEEPING)
All right.
All right, that door
there goes upstairs.
Becca and I'll take that.
Okay.
That goes to the kitchen.
We'll take that
'cause I'm starving.
Eww, there can't be
anything good in there.
Be better than your cookin'.
- Ooh, snap!
- Ooh!
Yup, you're not
havin' dinner tonight.
Well I guess that
leaves us with this way.
Love you.
Love you, miss you.
- Keep an eye on them?
- Hurray for us.
You wanna check
out the offices?
Sure.
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
- Booyah, first place.
- Ooh, second place.
Sober and still good.
Yeah
This in third, this
in fourth; you lose.
Ooh losers.
Oh damn, hey look Tiff.
It's like your wet dream.
You got all those lock stuff.
Keys.
Did you see that?
- Something just ran across.
- What?
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
(OMINOUS BOOMING)
(BELL DINGING)
(FAKE ACCENT) Excuse sir, are
you checking in today?
(FAKE ACCENT) I can't feel
my legs.
(FAKE ACCENT) I would like
three cheeseburgers,
- four...
- Guys.
Seriously guys?
This was an orphanage,
not a mental institution.
What's the difference?
Nothing, really, when
it comes to you two.
- Ooh.
- Ooh, snap!
Yo Ryan, you should keep a
tighter leash on your girl.
Not his girl,
we're just friends.
Yuh huh, like me and
Adam were just friends.
(CHUCKLES) Wait
a minute, what?
Okay guys, let's keep going.
- Come on.
- Okay, where do you wanna go?
- To pound town?
- No, not to pound town.
So just friends, huh?
Can we not talk
about that now?
I have a lot on my mind, I don't
need your voice in my head.
Yeah, no worries.
Hey, I'm sorry.
I didn't mean it like that.
No just like you said,
we can talk about it later.
Hey check this out.
Can you imagine wearing
an outfit like that?
Not really.
Wow.
What?
You know what
this reminds me of?
What?
That show where
they hunt ghosts.
Oh yes, I have just the thing.
- Oh yeah, perfect.
- Mmkay.
- How do I look?
- Looking good.
Tell our viewers at home
what we found, baby?
Don't call me baby.
Let's keep it
professional, Karen.
Yes, Mr Baby.
Mmm, that's more like it.
Crikey, why are we here?
Never seen one of these
in the wild before.
I thought you said you
wanted to be like a guy
who hunts ghosts, not
be Australian guy.
You don't like my accent?
KAREN: Uh uh, I'm sorry.
But here, lemme give it a try.
All right, give it to me.
Aww, look how cute she is.
Thank you.
Hi.
All right, where are we?
As you can clearly see,
we're now in the kitchen
of the famed
abandoned orphanage.
Yeah in the kitchen,
my favorite spot.
What's it called?
It's called...
I actually don't know
the name of this place.
What is it?
I don't know what it's called,
I thought you would
know the name.
(OMINOUS BANGING)
What was that?
I don't know.
But let's go check it out,
- shall we?
- Yes.
- Very romantic, Todd.
- Ooh yeah, well I try.
Wanna check this one out?
Oh God, no no no no no!
Mmm, jeez.
Hey, look at that.
(FLOOR CREAKING)
Come on.
Babe, what am I supposed
to be looking for?
It's not so much
about finding something.
It's about exploring
what once was.
Look at this place,
it used to be filled
with little kids runnin' around.
Now it's just totally forgotten.
I can't tell if they left
in a hurry or looters came in.
Could be both.
In establishment this
big couldn't just pick up
and leave in the
middle of the night.
Could they?
I don't know.
You'd be surprised at how
fast people could move
with the right motivation.
Should we move on?
Yeah, sure.
Hey hey, Becca.
Wanna check this one?
Door is locked.
Grab my crowbar.
It's back here.
The big pouch.
All right.
Looks like they don't
want anyone gettin' in.
Or getting out.
(LOCK CLANKING)
(OMINOUS GROWLING)
- I'm just saying that...
- Yo.
- If you haven't tried this...
- Oh, look outside.
Look at that.
Oh, there's no window.
- Cool.
- Damn,
- is this a lime tree?
- Citrus fruits.
- Wow.
- It's a lime.
I bet this place was
beautiful back in the day.
Yeah.
- Move, I need a pee.
- Yeah, me too.
- Do you wanna cross swords?
- Okay.
Wait, hang on.
- There you go.
- There's no moon.
Right?
(ADAM GRUNTING)
(FLUID SQUISHING)
- Oh, right I...
- Eww, gross.
Guys, show some respect.
What?
I thought you ladies
might wanna take a peek.
Well did you bring
the magnifying glass?
(ALL LAUGHING)
Ooh, I thought I was done.
Do you hear that?
Could have been a raccoon.
Did you guys hear that?
Guys?
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
What'd you find?
This cabinet, it
says private on it.
- (GRUNTS) Yeah.
- Ooh.
Oh, man.
Here.
Tapes, journals, docs.
Here, what's in here?
Oh my God, these
are the people
who went missing
from the orphanage.
Look at this.
That kid was messed up.
No wonder they locked
that in the drawer.
Yikes, they used to
perform exorcisms here.
Let's check this out.
"Property of Father
Thomas." (CHUCKLES)
Let's see.
"August 10th, 1966.
"Do not fear what you
are about to suffer.
"Behold, the Devil is about to
cast some of you into prison
"so that you will be tested
"and you will have
tribulation for 10 days.
"Be faithful until death
"and I will give you
the crown of life.
"Revelations 2:10.
"Even with these
words to hold close,
"I am truly being tested.
"We've locked Amanda
up in her chambers,
"but she still manages to escape
"and run around the
halls at night.
"Every night we lose someone.
"The church refuses
to send help.
"Where is the light
in all this darkness?"
He's tryin' to...
(OMINOUS CRASHING)
Let's go check it out.
(FEET STOMPING QUICKLY)
Adam?
Shane?
(OMINOUS BELL DINGING)
It's like a
freezer or something.
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
What was that?
That scared the hell outta me.
Holy shit!
What, what is it?
There was somebody behind you.
No there isn't.
I swear to God
there was somebody
standing right behind you.
Are you trying to scare me?
I'm not lying, there
was something there.
Lemme see.
(RADIO BEEPING)
(KAREN GASPING)
- Guys.
- Jeez.
- What's up?
- We need you guys
to come to the third floor.
We'll be right there.
Save the battery.
I don't think we
should be in here.
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
(SINISTER GROWLING)
Soon as I closed the door,
it was like right in
front of you right there
- I thought.
- You're tryin' to scare me.
I swear...
- Wait.
- Oh God, what?
- What was that?
- What was what?
You didn't hear it?
No, it probably
just the winds.
Stop scaring me.
(OMINOUS GIRL LAUGHING)
(DOOR CREAKING)
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
Wow.
Yeah this is cool, right?
Did you guys find anything?
Yeah, we found some
pretty cool stuff.
We left it back at central.
Except for this.
Wow.
(CAMERA CLICKING)
(HAUNTING MUSIC)
AMANDA: You wanna play?
Oh my God.
How did you get in here?
You shouldn't be in
a place like this.
Your parents must be
worried sick about you.
Hey,
where'd you go?
Do you wanna play a game?
If you wanna play, you
have to turn off the light.
I don't wanna play your game.
(DOOR CREAKING AND SLAMMING)
Help.
Help guys, help me please!
Please!
Babe, I'm gonna
check out this room.
Hey Tiff, I bet you could
have picked those locks.
Wait, where's Tiff?
Tiff?
Hey Tiff, come in.
Hello, hello?
Guys, can you hear me?
Hello.
- Hey, what's goin' on?
- Tiff's missing.
Have you tried her cell phone?
I'm not gettin' any signal.
- I'm not either.
- Me too.
Hey Tiff, can you hear us?
Please come in!
Hello, I'm here please!
Hello!
Can you hear?
Ugh!
Okay. (BREATHES HEAVILY)
(EERIE MUMBLING)
(EERIE GROWLING)
Hey Tiff, can you hear us?
I'll go check on
the second floor.
She was just right behind me.
Okay hey you
guys, go with her.
Find Tiff and just
come right back, okay?
- Yes mother.
- Come on guys.
Thank you, mother.
Would you like us to
do the dishes too?
Tiff?
Hey, what's goin' on with Tiff?
Nothin', she
just wandered off.
They're lookin' for her.
You guys, listen to this.
March second 1966.
Today we finally
received Amanda Peterson.
Tiff?
Tiff?
The police reported to me
that her father went missing.
They thought it best for
the girl to stay here.
We shall make a home
for this poor girl
and lead her to salvation.
Tiff?
Tiffany?
May the Lord direct our
hearts towards the love
of God and let us
help this poor child
discover the light
- within her heart.
- Tiffany?
And become strong in
the eyes of the Lord.
(EERIE MOANING)
What's that?
What, what is it?
What is it?
It's Tiff's
flashlight and walkie.
You think she just ran off?
She wouldn't
leave this behind.
Tiff?
Tiff?
Guys?
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
Guys?
Guys, where are you?
Guys.
(SHANE SHOUTING)
(ADAM LAUGHING)
Screw you!
(ADAM AND SHANE GROANING)
Damn it, Jackie.
You broke my light.
That's what you get, assholes.
Aw Jackie.
Was it something I said?
September first, 1966.
the power of faith has once
again shown me the way: light.
We installed the lights
and secured her room
to prevent her from
hurting anyone else.
There shall never be
darkness around her.
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
What else does it say?
The light shines
in the darkness
and the darkness did
not comprehend it.
I'm afraid even the darkness
can reach deep within.
I can find no way
to stop the darkness
that lurks within these halls.
No one is safe.
I have told everyone to leave.
I locked myself in
to watch over Amanda.
With God as my witness,
I shall make sure
she doesn't escape.
That's his last entry.
Guys.
Hey, I'll be right there.
Katie.
Hey Katie, what's up?
I just can't imagine being
trapped in a room like this.
(SIGHS) Yeah.
Did you find her?
What's going on?
Tiff is missing.
But she left some of her
stuff in one of the rooms.
That makes no sense.
Where could she have gone?
We don't know for sure
that she was trapped here.
That's what the journal said.
Yeah but you can't believe
everything you read, Katie.
I bet she got outta
here and went on
to live a full, happy life.
(EERIE WHISPERING)
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
Todd!
Holy shit!
Come on, let's go.
Hey Guys!
Kate?
Hey, come on. Let us out!
Ryan, get it open.
- Whadya think I'm doin'?
- Hurry!
- Seriously guys, open the door.
- Hey come on.
You guys, hang on; let us out.
- Hurry!
- You guys, hey.
Open the door, guys.
Come on!
Come on, put
your back into it.
He's not helping.
I'm sure they're
just joking with us.
Does it look like
we're laughing?
Come on, let's go.
- You okay?
- What's goin' on?
What the hell was that?
What happened?
You okay?
There was a little
girl in there.
She just showed up and
then the door slammed on us
and she was gone.
A little girl?
She just vanished
out of thin air.
(CLAPPING AND LAUGHING)
Well done, guys.
I mean I never took you
two to be pranksters,
but you really had
these guys goin'.
No, we're not
makin' this up, Adam.
There was something
trapped in there with us.
(OMINOUS BANGING)
(EERIE MUSIC)
What was that?
Maybe it was a little girl
that disappeared into the...
Dude, shut up.
If that's a little girl,
why don't you two
go check it out.
- Well...
- Go check it out.
I would but...
Yeah, okay.
You know.
(ADAM CLUCKING)
- I twisted my...
- Adam come back.
(ADAM CLUCKING)
I'm sure it's nothing.
Just scare him a little bit.
Hello, anyone there?
Tiff?
See guys, there's
nothin' to worry about.
There's nothing here.
(DEMONIC GROWLING)
(ADAM SCREAMING)
No, no, oh my God!
(DEMONIC GROWLING)
(ADAM SCREAMING)
Oh God, fuck!
(ADAM SCREAMING LOUDLY)
(DEMONIC HISSING AND GROWLING)
Help me, man!
(SHANE SCREAMING)

(OMINOUS GIRL LAUGHING)
(SINISTER MUSIC)
Shane stop!
Shane!
Shane no!
(RYAN SCREAMING)
Oh fuck!
God, oh God!
Hey hey hey hey hey.
Breathe, breathe,
breathe, breathe.
Breathe, breathe, breathe.
I got it, I got it.
(RYAN SCREAMING)
There's something out there.
She had him do it.
Adam.
(EERIE MUMBLING)
Adam!
(MUFFLED CROSSTALK)
Adam!
Oh God!
Adam!
Adam, come on man!
Where are you?
GHOSTLY WOMAN: Shane.
Adam.
GHOSTLY WOMAN: Shane.
- Adam, where are you, dude?
- I'm over here.
- What?
- Over here.
Where, where?
DEMONIC ADAM: I'm over here.
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
You're okay.
You're okay.
- What are you doing?
- It can be Adam or Shane.
You sure you wanna
take that risk?
Shane, Adam?
(SINISTER BANGING)
Come on guys.
Guys, we gotta go.
- Go, go, go!
- Outta here.
- Go, go, go, go go.
- Here, help me with this.
Come on. (GRUNTS)
Okay.
(SINISTER MUSIC)
Go, go, go.
We gotta get outta here.
- Run!
- Wait!
We can't leave.
Why not?
Tiff is still missing.
Are you kidding?
What do you think just
happened to Adam and Shane?
We can't just give up.
I don't think she's
missing, Jackie.
Our lives are in danger
if we don't leave right now.
I'm staying.
Hey, don't be
stupid about this.
You would if it was Kate.
Just get Ryan to the hospital.
I'll stay here with Jackie;
we'll look for Tiff.
What are you, crazy?
That's suicide.
We trapped that thing
in the cellar, right?
We should be safe.
(DEMONIC GROWLING)
(JACKIE SCREAMING)
Jackie!
(DEMONIC GROWLING)
(JACKIE SCREAMING)
Shit, run, run!
Come on, get outta my way!
You guys, we're trapped.
Don't say that, we'll
find another way out.
Right, Kate?
Yes, yes, by the entry way.
It's not far.
- The door?
- Yeah.
Move! Come on, let's go.
Yeah.
Hey, (BREATHES HEAVILY)
come on.
Come on.
Goddammit.
Yeah.
- Come on.
- Push it.
We're all gonna die here.
Don't say that, we're
gonna find another way out.
(GRUNTS) There is
no other way out.
Katie, he said there's
only two entrances right?
All right this is it, come on.
Come on.
We're all gonna end
up like Adam and Shane
and Jackie and Tiff.
Stop talking like that, Karen!
We're gonna get
outta here, all right?
We're all gonna
end up them.
(KAREN WEEPING)
- Come on.
- You guys, she needs air!
We can't get out, Becca.
Didn't we pass the courtyard
or something on the way in here?
Yeah.
If one of us can get over,
maybe we can open the
door from the outside.
- I'll lift you up?
- Yeah,
can you get me up there?
What if that doesn't work?
Then it doesn't work, at
least we tried something.
Come on.
We have to think
through this, Todd.
TODD: You got a better idea?
Come on.
Everybody, come on. Let's go.
- Can you run?
- I can run.
Okay, go.
(BREATHES HEAVILY) Just breathe.
We're gonna be fine.
- Fuck it, fuck it.
- Here.
Do you need to sit down?
Where?
Hey, Eric!
(MUFFLED CROSSTALK)
(STEEL BAR CLANGING)
- Shit, okay.
- Okay, now breathe.
Boo!
(TODD GASPING)
- Todd?
- Oh my God!
- What?
- Are you okay?
- I saw a little girl.
- What happened?
- Babe.
- Shit.
I'm fine, I'm fine.
- Shit.
- Ryan.
- Guys, guys, look at Ryan.
- Holy shit.
- I got it, I got it.
- We should call an ambulance!
Come here.
Ryan?
Ryan, give it up.
He's lost a lot of blood.
No shit, Sherlock.
Hey don't talk
to her like that.
Okay, I can bandage him up
properly if I have my kit.
Well where's that?
It's back at base camp.
- Okay.
- Deep breaths.
Shit, okay let's go get it.
No, dude come on.
You're not thinking about
goin' back in there, are you?
What other choice
do we have, man?
That thing can clearly go
wherever the hell it wants.
We gotta get outta here.
I'll move Ryan, come on.
Fuck!
You all right, buddy?
Come on, we're gonna
get you outta here.
Come on, come on, come on.
- Wake up, wake up, wake up.
- All right, come on buddy.
- Let's do this.
- Oh fuck, all right.
(PANTS) You all right, man?
You're gonna be okay.
Karen, can you bandage him up?
(GRUNTS) Fuck.
(DOOR BANGING)
- Shit.
- What?
I got nothing,
you got anything?
Nothing.
All right, Karen will
you watch him for me?
Hey, where are you going?
To see if I get service.
- No, not by yourself.
- Why not?
I'm going with you.
Hey, I'm gonna go
with her all right?
I'm gonna be okay.
You stay here.
- Okay, we gotta get moving.
- I'll be right back.
I love you.
- Okay, be safe.
- Stay safe.
I'll be right back.
Hey Katie, Katie!
Katie, Katie hold on.
Katie!
- Kate.
- What?
What's going on with you?
Well let's see, four of
our closest friends are dead
and Ryan's in desperate
need of medical attention,
so how do you
expect me to react?
You know what I mean,
you've been acting different.
You're not the type to lash out
at people, especially Becca.
Oh my God, this
is not the time
to be having that discussion.
When will be the time?
'Cause we might not
make it outta here.
If that's the case, I
don't wanna leave things
like this between you and me.
So what's up?
Fine.
I am thrilled for
your engagement.
Our engagement, that's
really what this is about?
I'm sure the two of you
will be very happy together.
But you're not, so
what's the problem?
You don't like Becca?
I love Becca.
Okay, so what is it?
Come on.
Why didn't you tell me you
were thinking of marrying her?
(SIGHS) I don't always
tell you everything.
Oh that's bullshit, Todd!
You've known her for six months.
You've known me for
your entire life.
Why did you keep that from me?
Why did I have to find
out with everybody else?
What else are you
keeping from me?
(SOMBER PIANO MUSIC)
What else are you
keeping from me?
After graduation, we
were thinking about moving.
Moving where?
We don't know, just somewhere
better to raise a family.
When are you gonna tell Mom?
She already knows.
Great, the last to know again.
Thank you for that.
I'm sorry, Katie.
You don't have to
stay here either.
I am not gonna be the one
who leaves mom alone again.
But don't worry, we'll be fine.
We won't need you.
Don't be like this.
Hey.
KAREN: Kate, he's awake.
Katie.
Hey, come on.
I got it, I got it.
You all right?
Hey.
- You okay?
- Yeah.
(FIRE CRACKLING)
(FOREBODING MUSIC)
Find anything in there?
"But if we walk in the
light as he is in the light,
"we have fellowship
with one another
"and the blood of
Jesus Christ, his son,
"cleans us from all sin.
"The Lord has heard our prayers.
"We kept the demon
and Amanda at bay
"and had our
first restful night.
"Tomorrow we shall
perform Amanda's exorcism
"and remove the demon
that follows her."
Maybe something on
here can help us.
What's that?
We found this in the files.
Exorcism 666.
Do we really wanna hear that?
We should know what
we're up against.
FATHER WES: Is
that what happened
to Sister Mary Roberts
and the other orphans?
AMANDA: They
had to be punished.
FATHER WES: Where
are they, Amanda?
AMANDA: He took
them into the dark.
FATHER WES: Is he
here with us now, Amanda?
AMANDA: Yes.
He doesn't want you to hurt me.
FATHER WES: We're not
here to hurt you, Amanda.
We're only trying to help you.
AMANDA: You wanna
take him away from me.
You can't have him.
(LIGHTS SHATTERING)
FATHER WES: I
can't see anything.
Amanda, Amanda where are you?
AMANDA: We wanna play
a game with you, Father.
FATHER WES: Father
Thomas turn on the lights.
Demon I demand you to release
this poor child at once.
Our Father, who art in Heaven.
(DEMON GROWLING)
Make it stop.
Oh my God, I can't
believe this is happening.
We just have to hold
on a little longer.
We're gonna make
it through this.
How?
Light.
In the journal he said he
could keep her away with light.
You're right.
How are we
supposed to do that?
All we have are flashlights.
What do you need?
In the folder we
found in the cabinet.
What are you lookin' for?
We found a picture.
They were standing next to a
- generator.
- Generator.
The picture we
found of these nuns,
they're standing by a generator.
You guys, this is her.
This is the little girl
that Todd and I saw.
Amanda Peterson; she's
just a little girl.
The ghost girl that has
a demon for best friends.
- Can we stop her?
- Light's the answer.
The generator's in the cellar.
If we can get down
there and turn it on,
maybe we can light this
place up and get outta here.
Does anyone have experience
with a generator?
Yeah, I do.
My grandparents used to
have one on the farm.
Okay, so Ryan and Eric
will go down to the cellar
and the two of you
can go with Todd.
No wait, I don't wanna
go anywhere without Eric.
If you don't wanna go with
us Karen, you can go with them.
Becca and Ryan also
go through the halls
and try to distract this thing.
Radio when it's safe.
Seems like a really
stupid idea, guys.
No if they can keep this
thing distracted long enough
and we can turn the generator
on, no one'll get hurt.
What if it's in
the cellar with you?
Then you will
have to act fast.
I don't really like this
idea of us splitting up.
Just trust me, it'll work.
We'll be fine.
Okay, we'll go this way.
Wait, take this with you.
Set the motion sensor on
then put it in the hallway
and maybe it can
give you a warning
of something or someone's
coming after you.
Good luck, guys.
(CAMERA BEEPING)

Come here.
(KAREN SOBBING LOUDLY)
No, Eric!
Don't move, don't move.
Here.
Where's Eric?
Where the hell
are the bandages?
They're right here.
- What happened?
- This place happened.
Oh, sweetie.
I don't need your help.
Leave me alone, please.
Just leave me alone. (SOBS)
So what do we do now?
TODD: Could you
just give us a minute?
We don't have a minute, Todd.
Eric is dead and
her leg's all torn up.
Could you please just
give us a goddamn minute?
(KAREN SOBBING)
This all your fault.
You should be the
one dead, not Eric.
You're right, I'm sorry.
I was just tryin' to help.
I didn't think...
That's your problem right
there, you don't think.
So, what?
Are we all gonna just
sit here and wait to die?
We have to get
back to the cellar.
Light is the only way
to stop this thing.
We already found the generator.
We just have to
fill it with gas,
turn it on and then
we're home-free.
You know that for a fact?
No I do not know
that for a fact,
but I have to trust
that we will be.
I guess I better get used
to doing things without you.
(SIGHS) Stop being
such a bitch, Katie!
Screw you, Todd.
I can take care of myself.
Yeah, you made
that real clear.
Go ahead.
Go off and enjoy your new life
and leave the rest of us
behind, just like dad did.
You know what?
- Fuck you, Katie!
- Fuck you, Todd!
All right, you're
gonna be okay.
It's all right.
(KAREN SOBBING)
ERIC: Karen.
Karen.
Eric?
It's all my fault.
I never should've
suggested this place.
Hey, don't say that.
We had no idea what
we were up against
and you couldn't have known.
I can't let anyone
else die because of me.
I have to get the
generator up and running.
It's too dangerous.
We should just stay here
and wait until morning.
We may not live
that long, Ryan.
We have the fireplace.
It'll keep us safe.
Does it still hurt?
I'm hangin' in there.
I'm so sorry.
Hey, look at me.
Hey, come here.
You have nothin'
to be sorry for.
I would do anything for you.
In case we don't make
it out of here alive,
I just want you to know that.

gonna hurt you.
But your friend will, right?
AMANDA: Only if you
don't play the game right.
I just want Eric
back and go home.
AMANDA: I know where he is.
Where?
AMANDA: I can't tell you.
Why not?
AMANDA: You have
to play the game first
and if you win, I'll
take you to him.
And if I lose?
AMANDA: You get
to stay here with me.
If you wanna play, you have
to turn off your flashlight.

Did you tell her
we were moving?
Yeah.
Well you thought she
might act this way.
Yeah, but I thought she
might at least be happy for us.
She's your sister.
Of course she wants
us to be happy,
just like you want
her to be happy.
Hey, where are you going?
We're gonna smooth
things over with Kate.
No no no, just
come on, stay here.
- No, Todd.
- You're hurt.
Yeah, I might die
if I just stay here
sitting on my ass doing nothing.
We're not gonna stay in here.
We're gonna get married,
have lots of babies
and we're not gonna die here.
Now, I have a wedding
to prepare for
and you need to patch things up
with my future sister-in-law
before it's too late.
I know, that thing
hasn't come after us yet.
I think the fire's working.
Let's just stay put.
I've never known
you to be somebody
who sits on the sidelines, Todd.
(HUFFS) This is different.
This isn't a game.
I know this isn't a game.
This is our life and
you're just sitting here
stubborn to help them.
Now are you with me or am
I doin' this by myself?
I'm with you.
I'm with you all the way.
Okay, come on.
(BECCA WINCING)
You shouldn't be
walking on that.
I think I'll survive.
Wishful thinking.
Hey.
Sorry, it's hard
to be optimistic
when most of the people
you know are gone.
Poor Karen, she...
- Son of a bitch.
- Where'd she go?
- Karen!
- We gotta find her.
No no no, you're not going.
It's way too dangerous.
So we're just gonna leave her?
No no Katie, she's right.
Becca can't go
anywhere, she's hurt.
Let's just wait
here 'til morning.
- We'll look for Karen then.
- Exactly.
(HUFFS) My God,
between the two of you
just sitting around and
doin' nothing, it's pathetic.
These are your friends.
Our friends.
Let's go find them.
