Hallows Eve

ACT 1 EXT. RAMSEY HOUSE- FRONT- NIGHT The soft song of CHIRPING CRICKETS and a SOFT BREEZE makes the Ramsey house appear even more calm and serene. The Ramsey residence sits on a small hill surrounded by patches of a thick woods. The full moon sits high in the sky as the dark clouds dance across its glowing facet. The house is built of two stories. Its the traditional American family home with shutters, a large front door, and a fenced front yard...but still with a bit of edge and character. The owners are obviously wealthy and successful yet far from pretentious and flamboyant. INT. RAMSEY HOUSE- LIVING ROOM- NIGHT The living room of the Ramsey house is quiet except for the calm, suspenseful score of the scary movie playing on a flat screen TV facing the large couch. A young woman sits on the couch, facing the flat screen TV. RING. RING. RING. The young woman slowly turns to reveal the face of MEGAN RAMSEY. 17 and smart. She appears wise and mature...a bit too mature and smart for her own good. Megan eyes the doorway behind the couch leading to the kitchen. She SIGHS in annoyance as she stands up from the couch and shuffles into the kitchen. INT. RAMSEY HOUSE- KITCHEN- NIGHT Megan grabs the cordless phone from the dock on the counter and quickly answers. MEGAN (into phone) Speaking. STATIC rings out from the phone and into Megans ear. She WINCES as she rips the phone away from her head. Megan slowly inches the phone back to her ear.

MEGAN (CONTD) Hello? The STATIC continues, eating away at her patience. She ends the call and slams the phone onto the counter. Megan slowly looks to the window beside the kitchen table. Megan inches closer to the window and looks out to see the famous Withers Mansion far in the distance. Megan can see the strobe lights and can hear the poppy dance music from there. MEGAN (CONTD) (to herself) Happy Halloween, Megan... Megan turns and looks at the messy kitchen table. A carved jack-o-lantern sits on the edge of the table. Chunks and pieces of pumpkin sit around it. Megan grabs the butcher knife from the table and wipes the blade with a hand towel beside the jack-o-lantern. Megan grabs chunks of the pumpkin from the table and puts them into the towel. She carries the towel and the knife to the sink and drops them inside. INT. RAMSEY HOUSE- MAXS BEDROOM- NIGHT The bedroom door of MAX RAMSEYS bedroom slowly CREEKS open. Megan peeks in through the door to see her little brother, Max, sleeping soundly in his bed. RING. RING. RING. Megans eyes widen as the SILENCE is broken. Megan slowly shuts the door. Max slowly turns in his bed. His eyes closed and his breathing heavy and relaxed... THE CLOSET DOOR MASKED BY SHADOWS IN THE CORNER OF THE SMALL BEDROOM SLOWLY CREEKS OPEN... Maxs eyes slowly open. INT. RAMSEY HOUSE- KITCHEN- NIGHT RING! RING! RING! Megan SIGHS as she walks into the kitchen and snatches the phone from the counter.

MEGAN Hello? STATIC rings out from the phone. MEGAN (CONTD) (annoyed) OK, this isnt funny. The STATIC slowly clears...and Megan hears the voice of her friend, Rachel. RACHEL (O.S.) Megan? Megan, are you there? MEGAN (upset) Rachel? Is that you? RACHEL (O.S.) Yes. Your phone kept cutting out. MEGAN You scared the shit out of me. RACHEL (O.S.) OH, youll love me after you hear this. Take this as my Halloween treat to you. Do you wanna go to Ashelys party tonight? MEGAN No need. I can see it through my kitchen window. Megan walks to the table and grabs more pieces of the pumpkin as she eyes the large house through the window. MEGAN (CONTD) Besides, Im stuck babysitting my brother. Not like I had much better to do. RACHEL (O.S.) Megan, its Halloween. Who cares about Mitch. MEGAN (CONTD) (annoyed) This isnt about Mitch.

RACHEL (O.S.) OH really. Is HE not the reason for all your depressing Facebook updates today? MEGAN He cheated on me, I think I have the right to be a bit depressing. Megan carries the pieces of the pumpkin and drops them into the sink. Megan doesnt notice...but the knife is now gone. RACHEL (O.S.) Hes a jerk. Tonight is the night to show him what hes missing, anyway! Dress up in a slutty costume and show up at the same party hes going to! Its perfect! MEGAN (sits down at table) Rach, Im not like you. I cant just...do that. RACHEL (O.S.) (annoyed) Why not? Live...for one night of your life...just LIVE, Megan! If any night was right, its tonight! Megan stands, tucking the phone between her shoulder and ear, and wipes the table with a hand towel. She wipes the remaining pieces of the pumpkin and numerous seeds into her other hand. MEGAN (walks to sink) Just go without me and...I might show up. RACHEL (O.S.) Yes, yes, YES! You promise? MEGAN Ill see what I can do. RACHEL (O.S.) (giddy) You wont regret it! BEEP. The other line interrupts Megan as she goes to reply.

MEGAN Hang on, other line. Megan pushes a button on the phone and brings the phone back to her ear as she leans against the counter. MEGAN (CONTD) Hello? MITCH (O.S.) Hello? Megans eyes widen as she sits up. His voice sounds muffled and unclear. MEGAN (shocked) Mi-Mitch? Is that you? Are you OK? MITCH (O.S.) Megan. MEGAN Yes, its Megan. Mitch...are you OK? You sound... MITCH (O.S.) God, I...I miss you. MEGAN (smiles) I hope youre not lying. MITCH (O.S.) Lying...not...youre...lying. MEGAN (confused) Mitch? Are...are you drunk? MITCH (O.S.) God, I want to see you. Please. God, please. Megan shifts uncomfortably as she turns and eyes the window. MEGAN Mitch, where are you? Are you alright? Do you need me to come get you?

MITCH (O.S.) Outside. MEGAN (confused) What? MITCH (O.S.) I-Im...out....Im outside. Megan slowly looks up, her eyes wide with wonder. Megan slowly turns and inches towards the doorway leading to the living room. INT. RAMSEY HOUSE- LIVING ROOM- NIGHT Megan walks into the living room, her eyes scanning the living room. MITCH (O.S.) The door... MEGAN (halts) What? MITCH (O.S.) Youre so pretty... Megans eyes widen as she slowly turns to look at the glass back door looking out to the dark back lawn. MEGAN (worried) Mitch...are you... MITCH (O.S.) (interrupts) I see you. Come...come here... Megan eyes the glass back door. She only sees darkness. Megan slowly inches towards the back door. MITCH (O.S.) (CONTD) Youre getting warmer. Megan reaches for the light switch on the wall. She flips the switch and watches as the back lawn is flooded with light. Megan stands at the glass window, her eyes scanning the foggy back lawn. Then...her eyes WIDEN in terror. (CONTINUED)

SHE SPOTS MITCH STANDING A SHORT DISTANCE AWAY FROM THE BACK DOOR. HE HAS HIS CELLPHONE TO HIS EAR. HIS FACE IS HIDDEN BY A CLEAR HALLOWEEN MASK. MITCH THOMAS seems frozen...almost in a trance...just staring at the back door...at Megan. MITCH (O.S.) God...youre so beautiful. Come here. Come outside. MEGAN (scared) Mitch...I... MITCH (O.S.) Megan...do you love me? MEGAN (fighting back tears) Mitch...I dont...I dont know. Youre scaring me. MITCH (O.S.) Just come outside. Come here... Megan fights back her tears as she slowly edges her hand to the lock. She grabs the lock...her hand trembling as she begins to turn it. She watches as Mitchs head slowly tilts slightly to the left. Megan then stops. She turns the lock back...securing the door. MITCH (O.S.) (angry) Megan... MEGAN (crying) Im sorry. You need to leave. Youre drunk. Something...isnt right with you, Mitch. MITCH (O.S.) Megan, open the door. MEGAN Please, leave... MITCH (O.S.) (angry) Open the door, Megan. Now. (CONTINUED)

Megan slowly backs away from the door, her lip trembling. MEGAN Please...just go. MITCH (O.S.) NOW! MEGAN! OPEN THE DOOR! NOW! NOW! NOW! MEGAN Stop! Mitch, stop it! MITCH (O.S.) God...I hope he kills you. I hope he fucking butchers you. Rips your fucking intestines out and strangles you with them. Megan ends the call and stares at Mitch through the glass door. Mitch is still...frozen and motionless. Megan then watches as his phone falls to the ground. MEGAN Mitch...oh, God. EXT. RAMSEY HOUSE- BACK LAWN- NIGHT Mitchs head slowly tilts again to the left...but a bit further than before. INT. RAMSEY HOUSE- LIVING ROOM- NIGHT Megan watches as she inches back towards the glass door. Her eyebrows rise as she squints to see clearer. EXT. RAMSEY HOUSE- BACK LAWN- NIGHT Mitchs head continues to turn down to the left. Bones in his neck begin to SNAP and CRACK. His whole masked head continues to turn to the left. INT. RAMSEY HOUSE- LIVING ROOM- NIGHT Megan rushes to the glass door, her body pressed against it...watching in terror. Its as if Mitch is...possessed. She watches as Mitchs head continues to lean farther to the left.

9. EXT. RAMSEY HOUSE- BACK LAWN- NIGHT MITCHS HEAD THEN COMPLETELY TURNS UPSIDE DOWN AS HIS NECK SNAPS AND CRACKS. HIS UPSIDE DOWN FACE STARES BACK AT MEGAN. INT. RAMSEY HOUSE- LIVING ROOM- NIGHT MEGAN AHHH! Megan CRIES in terror as she watches Mitchs head turn upside down. She backs away from the door as Mitchs body collapses onto the lawn. Megan turns and hits the wall. She SOBS as she sinks down the wall, covering her mouth as tears stream down her face. MEGAN (CONTD) Oh...OH, my God. Oh God. Megan grabs the door frame for support and pulls herself up. She rushes into the kitchen as she begins to dial 911. INT. RAMSEY HOUSE- KITCHEN- NIGHT Megan begins to dial for help when she stops...to see blood dripping from the jack-o-lantern on the kitchen table. MEGAN (crying) What...what the... Megan edges towards the jack-o-lantern. The carved-out face supplies the only view inside the bloody pumpkin...but darkness hides whats inside. Megan inches closer...her trembling hand reaching out in front of her. Megan slowly grabs the stem of the pumpkin and slowly pulls the lid off of the jack-o-lantern. She slowly edges closer and looks down inside the hollowed out pumpkin to see... MAXS DECAPITATED HEAD SITTING INSIDE OF THE BLOODY JACK-O-LANTERN. MEGAN AHHHHH! Megan drops the phone as she backs away from the jack-o-lantern and hits the wall. Tears stream down her face as she sinks down the wall and cries into her hands. (CONTINUED)

CONTINUED: MEGAN (CONTD) OH..GOD, MAX!

Megan SOBS as she grabs the phone from beside her and begins to dial for help once more...THE PHONE THEN GOES DEAD. Megan looks up as DARKNESS surrounds her. All of the lights go out inside the house. Megans lips tremble as she slowly stands up, trying the phone once more. Its no use... Megan rushes to the sink and searches for the knife...only to find nothing. Megan rips open a drawer and snatches a butcher knife from inside. CREEEEEEK. Megans eyes widen as she hears a door open from the living room. Megan slowly edges out of the kitchen. INT. RAMSEY HOUSE- MEGANS BEDROOM- NIGHT Megan slowly edges into her room and quietly shuts the door. She rushes towards her bed and sees her phone has been detached from its charger. MEGAN (whispers) SHIT. Megan turns and slowly edges back to the bedroom door. INT. RAMSEY HOUSE- UPSTAIRS HALLWAY- NIGHT Megan quietly shuts her bedroom door and begins to walk back towards the stairs when...THUD. THUD. THUD. Megan listens as someone rushes up the stairs after her. Megan quickly turns and spots Maxs bedroom door. She rushes inside and shuts the door quietly behind her. INT. RAMSEY HOUSE- MAXS BEDROOM- NIGHT Megan locks the door and turns to see Maxs dead body still laying on his bed. Megan covers her mouth as she looks at the body. FOOTSTEPS then ring out from the hallway outside of Maxs bedroom door. Megan rushes towards the bed and sinks down onto the floor. She clutches the knife as she wiggles her way underneath Maxs bed.

11.

INT. RAMSEY HOUSE- MAXS BEDROOM- UNDER BED- NIGHT Megan lays on her back and slowly covers her mouth as she watches the bedroom door bust open. Megans eyes widen as she watches the unknown assailant walk into the bedroom. She watches as their black boots walk along the wooden floor. The assailant walks to the closet and yanks the doors open. Megan closes her eyes as she waits in terror. Megan watches as the unknown culprit walks from the closet and to the bed. Megan holds her breath as she clutches the knife tightly. Megan then watches as the unknown figure walks out of Maxs bedroom. Silence slowly surrounds Megan. She slowly sighs as she relaxes. THE UNKNOWN FIGURE THEN WALKS BACK INTO MAXS ROOM. Megans eyes widen as she covers her mouth again...trying not to scream. The figure stops by Maxs bed. Megan then looks up at the mattress above her. She watches as a knife blade stabs through the bed. MEGANS EYES WIDEN AS BLOOD GUSHES FROM THE HOLE IN THE MATTRESS AND ONTO MEGAN BELOW. MEGAN PUTS HER HANDS UP, TRYING TO BLOCK ANY MORE OF MAXS BLOOD FROM HITTING HER. The blood continues to GUSH down onto her and begins to spread out from under the bed around her. But...MEGAN STAYS SILENT. The blood flow begins to slow as Megan watches the figure...waiting for her to scream or to come crawling out. SILENCE. Megan, blood soaked and shivering, watches the unknown figure walk away from the bed and out of Maxs room once more. Megan then quickly wipes her face, removing as much blood from her as she can. Megan eyes Maxs bedroom from under the bed once more. She slowly begins to crawl out. She turns off of her back and onto her stomach.

12.

INT. RAMSEY HOUSE- MAXS BEDROOM- NIGHT Megan drags her bloody body out from under the bed and slowly stands up. She eyes Maxs body and the stab wound the figure just inflicted on Maxs chest. She chokes, fighting back vomit. Megan slowly inches towards the bedroom door, shivering and slowly breaking down. Megan clutches the knife tightly, slowly peeking out into the hallway. The coast is clear... INT. RAMSEY HOUSE- UPSTAIRS HALLWAY- NIGHT Megan steps into the deserted, quiet hallway. Megan slowly edges down the hallway, her eyes scanning the surroundings. She then sees a door at the opposite end of the hallway slowly CREAKING open. Megan turns and disappears down the opposite end of the hallway...AS THE UNKNOWN FIGURE STEPS OUT INTO THE HALLWAY. THE FIGURE IS WEARING A JACK-O-LANTERN MASK. A BLACK CLOAK MASKS THE FIGURES HEAD AND BLACK PANTS AND BOOTS SHIELD THEIR LOWER TORSO. The figure walks down the hall, running their knife along the wall. The figure looks down to see the bloody shoe prints left behind by Megan. The figure slowly follows them down the hallway. The figure sees that they lead under a door around the corner. The figure rounds the corner and spots a closet door. The figure slowly reaches for the doorknob. The figure grabs the doorknob and rips the closet door open to see...NOTHING. The figure stares back at darkness and vacancy. MEGAN THEN COMES CHARGING OUT OF THE CLOSET, A CLOTHING ROD IN HER HAND. THE CLOTHING ROD JABS INTO THE FIGURES STOMACH. The figure slams against the wall and falls to the ground. Megan drops the rod and runs down the hallway. MEGAN Someone, help! Megan glances back as she rushes towards the stairs. The figure stands and RUSHES after her.

MEGAN (CONTD) OH, GOD! Megan rushes to the stairs. Just a few...more...feet. Megan rounds the corner and begins to run down the stairs. INT. RAMSEY HOUSE- STAIRS- NIGHT Megans eyes then WIDEN IN TERROR. SHE SLIPS DOWN AND FALLS ONTO HER BACK ONTO THE STAIRS. SHE BEGINS TO CRAB WALK BACK UP THE STAIRS AS...MITCH CRAWLS QUICKLY UP THE STAIRS AFTER HER. MITCH THEN PINS MEGAN DOWN AGAINST THE STAIRS. MITCH MOVES ON TOP OF HER. MEGAN AHHH! MITCH! NO! MEGAN STARES AT MITCHS UPSIDE DOWN HEAD AS IT STARES BACK AT HER. MEGAN THEN STABS THE KNIFE INTO HIS BROKEN, BONY NECK. POSSESSED MITCH LETS OUT A SHRIEK. MITCH AHHHHHHH! Mitchs mask falls off of his face. MEGAN SCREAMS AS SHE STARES UP AT MITCHS FACE. BLOOD AND VOMIT THEN GUSHES FROM MITCHS MOUTH AND ONTO MEGAN. BLOOD AND VOMIT RUNS DOWN THE STAIRS AND OVER THE EDGES AND ONTO THE FLOOR BELOW. MEGAN AHHHHHH! Megan twists the knife as the blood and vomit covers her. Megan grinds her teeth as Mitch slowly dies. Megan then rips then shoves Mitch off of her. The stairs railing beside them breaks as Mitchs body hits it and falls over the edge. Megan CRIES as she quickly stands and rushes down the stairs. MEGAN IS COVERED FROM HEAD TO TOE IN VOMIT AND BLOOD. She glances back to see the figure no where in sight. Megan nearly slips as she rushes to the front door.

14.

EXT. RAMSEY HOUSE- FRONT LAWN- NIGHT Megan rushes out of the front door and falls onto the front porch. She CRIES as she picks herself up and runs down the steps. MEGAN Someone! Oh GOD! HELP! EXT. RAMSEY HOUSE- FRONT LAWN- NIGHT Megan turns and sees the Withers Mansion in the distance. She runs along the side of the house...AS THE FIGURE ROUNDS THE CORNER AND STABS HER. MEGAN AHHH! THE KNIFE STABS INTO MEGANS STOMACH. THE FIGURE RIPS THE KNIFE OUT AS MEGAN SLAMS HER FIST AGAINST THE FIGURES MASK. Megan fights past the figure as she rushes down the hill and towards the Withers Mansion ahead. A large field separates Megan from safety. Megan glances back to see the figure nowhere in sight. She glances forward as she onto the field. EXT. FIELD- NIGHT Megan waves her arms as she runs towards the Withers Mansion far in the distance. The music becomes clearer and the lights become brighter as she runs across the field. MEGAN Someone! PLEASE! HELP ME! Megan CRIES as she nearly trips...but keeps going. Shes almost to safety. Shes almost safe. MEGAN (CONTD) SOMEONE! HELP ME! SNAP! MEGAN CONTINUES TO RUN AS SHE HEARS A STICK SNAP FROM THE WOODS BESIDE HER. SHE EYES THE WOODS TO SEE A STRANGE ANIMAL LIKE BLACK FIGURE RUNNING THROUGH THE WOODS AND TOWARDS HER. Megan then sees a car parked on the side of the country road beside the field. Megan turns and quickly runs towards it.

MEGAN IS TACKLED TO THE GROUND AS HER SCREAM ECHOS OUT. SMASH CUT TO: INT. STEVES CAR- BACKSEAT- NIGHT DELILAH EDWARDS quickly sits up in the back of STEVE MYLERS CAR. DELILAH (scared) What was that? STEVE MYLER sits up and off of Delilah. He listens to...SILENCE. STEVE (smirks) That was my wolf senses...Im ready to feed, my lady. Steve kisses Delilahs neck as she giggles. Delilah is dressed like Little Red Riding Hood and Steve is dressed as the wolf man. Delilah is 17 but looks much older. Shes fun yet knows her limits. Steve is just like his costume...a total crazy man seeking excitement and danger. Hes a bit immature for 17. DELILAH I thought you were a wolf...not a PIG? Steve SIGHS as he looks back up to Delilah. STEVE What is wrong? DELILAH (angry) Steve, I heard something. GOD, I liked you better with the mask on! Delilah grabs a wolf mask from the floor of the backseat and shoves it at Steve.

STEVE What do you want me to do? Go roam around outside? Run into Michael or Jason? DELILAH NO...can we just go to the party. Please? STEVE Not before I devour every inch you. Steve smiles as DELILAH fights back a giggle. Steve kisses Delilah as slowly wraps her arms around him. Delilah closes her eyes as she tilts her head up as she moans in satisfaction. She opens her eyes to stare up at the car ceiling. SHE WATCHES AS A SHADOW PASSES ALONG THE BACKSEAT AND ACROSS THE CAR CEILING. Delilah sits up, scared and alert. DELILAH I just saw something! Steve SIGHS as he sits up with Delilah. STEVE Youre being paranoid. There is no one out here. Have you looked around? Steve looks out of the window to see the large field beside them and a thick woods on the opposite side of the road. STEVE (CONTD) No one is going to get you out here...except me. Steve smiles as he makes his way back to Delilah. Delilah moves away from him, denying his offer. DELILAH (annoyed) Lets go, Steve. STEVE (angry) What? DELILAH To the party. Im done.

Delilah straightens up her corset as Steve sits up and SHRUGS in anger. STEVE Come on, Delilah. DELILAH NO. Steve stares at Delilah as she stares forward, her arms folded and her attitude stern. Steve SIGHS as he grabs the passenger side backdoor handle. Delilah grabs his arm. DELILAH Wait...where are you going? STEVE To check it out. DELILAH Steve...no, just get in the front seat. STEVE (angry) No, we can do this your way. Steve grabs his wolf mask from the floor. Steve rips his arm from her hand and SLAMS the passenger side backseat door. Delilah slides across the backseat and stares out through the window at Steve. She watches Steve as he walks away from the car. DELILAH Damn it, Steve. Delilah SIGHS in anger. EXT. COUNTRY ROAD- NIGHT Steve walks from the car and along the deserted country road. He looks to see the Withers Mansion far in the distance. He hears the thumping of the music and can see the strobe lights flashing. STEVE I guess this is where I say--"Is anyone out there? Hello?" (CONTINUED)

Steve smirks as he begins to put on his wolf mask. SNAP! Steves smile fades as he hears a stick snap from the woods on the other side of the road. STEVE (CONTD) (laughing) I got ya now. Steve grins as he slides his wolf mask on and rushes towards the woods in excitement. INT. STEVES CAR- BACKSEAT- NIGHT Delilah watches with wide, worried eyes as Steve disappears into the woods. EXT. WOODS- NIGHT Steve pounces into the woods as he LAUGHS wildly under the wolf mask. STEVE Here kitty, kitty, kitty... Steve looks around the dark, thick woods. Not a single soul in sight. STEVE (continues walking, mocking Delilah) Steve, you dont care. Steve, lets just go to the party. Delilah, shut the fuck up. Steve SIGHS as...a SNAP is heard. Steve listens to the SILENCE. STEVE (CONTD) Dont make my claws come out, asshole. Steve listens to the soft breeze blowing through the silent woods. He then hears footsteps CRUNCHING on CRISP OCTOBER LEAVES IN THE DISTANCE. Steve SMIRKS under the mask as he jumps behind a tree. The footsteps grow closer and closer. STEVE (whispers) And... (CONTINUED)

The footsteps grow closer...only a foot away from Steves hiding post. STEVE LEAPS OUT FROM BEHIND THE TREE. STEVE AHHHH! Steve SIGHS in anger as he sees...no one. STEVE (CONTD) What? Are you fucking telepathic or something? Shit... Steve walks through the woods and back towards the road. He looks ahead as....THE FIGURE WITH THE JACK-O-LANTERN MASK steps out from behind a tree a few feet ahead. Steve stops as he SMIRKS and removes his mask. He smiles as he eyes the masked figure. STEVE What the fuck are you supposed to be? Look like you walked out of some stupid 90s slasher, man. Fucking lame. Steve shakes his head as he walks closer. STEVE (CONTD) Lame, man. Way too old school. Steve begins to walk past the figure...but the figure steps in his path. Steve stops and SMIRKS. STEVE (CONTD) Man, youre fucking with the wrong wolf. The figure tilts their head slowly, amused by his statement. STEVE (CONTD) Now...if youll... Steve begins to walk around the figure...but figure steps in his path once more. Steve shakes his head as a scowl spreads across his face. STEVE (walking towards figure) Listen man...fuck...OFF!

STEVE (CONTD) AHHHH! FUCK! Steve looks down at his bleeding palms as he slowly backs away. STEVE (CONTD) What the fuck, man! What is your problem!? The figure walks towards Steve, their knife gleaming as blood drips from it. THE FIGURE THEN SLASHES STEVES CHEEK. STEVE CRIES AS HE FALLS BACK AND ONTO THE GROUND. STEVE BACKS AWAY ALONG THE GROUND AS THE FIGURE APPROACHES HIM. STEVE (CONTD) No! NO! PLEASE! Steve crosses both arms in the shape of an "X" above his face to shield himself. THE FIGURE SWINGS THE KNIFE DOWN AND STABS INTO BOTH OF STEVES FOREARMS. STEVE (CONTD) AHHH! The blade stabs through both of his arms, keeping his arms locked in the "X" shape. STEVE (CONTD) NO! AHHH! The figure lets go of the knife and looks down at Steve as he CRIES in pain. The figure puts his boot onto the knife handle sticking out of Steves arm. The figure pushes their boot onto the handle, pushing Steves arms closer to his throat. STEVE (CONTD) NO! NO, PLEASE! The figure puts MORE pressure with his boot onto the knife. Steves crossed arms inch closer...the knife blade inching closer to his throat. THE FIGURE THEN STOMPS ONTO THE KNIFE HANDLE, CAUSING THE BLADE TO STAB FURTHER INTO STEVES CROSSED ARMS AND INTO HIS THROAT. STEVE CHOKES ON BLOOD AS BLOOD GUSHES FROM HIS THROAT AND OUT OF HIS MOUTH.

21.

The figure then rips the knife out of Steves throat and arms and looks down at him as he withers in pain. EXT. COUNTRY ROAD- NIGHT The passenger backseat door slowly opens. Delilah steps out of the car, red heels first. Delilah stands up and looks around the country road. DELILAH Steve, come on! Were already late enough as it is! Delilah listens as her voice echos through the country land surrounding her. SILENCE. Delilah shuts the door and edges closer to the woods on the opposite side of the road. She wraps her red cloak around her arms as she shivers in the cold air. DELILAH (CONTD) Steve, please? This isnt fun anymore. Come on...please? Delilah looks up to see the full moon above. The moon supplies the only light source. Delilah turns nervously and looks back at the car. AN UNKNOWN CREATURE RUNS BEHIND THE SPACES OF THE TREES IN THE WOODS BEHIND DELILAH. Delilah turns back to the woods as she hears RUSTLING LEAVES in the woods. DELILAH (CONTD) Steve... SILENCE. Then...Delilah hears it. GRRRRRRR. Delilahs eyes widen as she hears the carnivorous growl in the woods. Delilahs heels CLICK along the road as she rushes back to the car. DELILAH (CONTD) (terrified) Oh GOD! Delilah yanks the front passenger door open and rushes inside.

22.

INT. STEVES CAR- FRONT SEAT- NIGHT Delilah scoots along the seat and kicks her heels off. She scoots in front of the steering wheel. She grabs for the keys...but the ignition is bare. DELILAH Shit! Delilah looks to the passenger window to see the woods...Steve no where in sight...or the unknown creature. Delilah slowly turns to look into the backseat. Her eyes then widen... SHE SEES STEVES WOLF MASK SITTING IN THE PASSENGER SIDE BACKSEAT. Delilah fights back tears as she turns and looks at the mask. The mask is sitting straight up, as if something is under it...holding it up. Delilahs shaking hand reaches out...her fingers tremble as they edge closer towards the mask. Delilah grabs the ear of the wolf mask and tugs on it to reveal...STEVES DECAPITATED HEAD SITTING IN THE SEAT. DELILAH AHHHHH! Delilah sits up, her back to the drivers side window as she SCREAMS and CRIES. Delilah grabs her phone from the dashboard and begins to dial for help. THE DRIVERS WINDOW BEHIND HER THEN BUSTS OPEN AS A WEREWOLFS HEAD BUSTS THROUGH BEHIND HER. DELILAH (Contd) AHHHHHH! The werewolf bites Delilahs shoulder and tries to drag her out through the broken window. Her phone falls to the floor. Delilah grabs the ice scraper from the seat and hits the werewolf in the face.

She CRIES as she glances back towards the woods and holds her bleeding shoulder as she rushes towards the woods. EXT. WOODS- NIGHT Delilah rushes through the woods as she cries. She presses her hand against her bleeding shoulder as she dodges a few low branches in her way. DELILAH Oh God...Someone help! Delilah glances around the dark, thick woods as she continues through the thick fortress. Delilah glances back to see nothing chasing her...but she keeps running. Its too deadly to stop...too deadly to take a chance. DELILAH THEN FALLS FORWARD. Delilah hits the ground with a thud. She then looks back at what she tripped over... STEVES HEADLESS DEAD BODY IS LAYING ON THE GROUND. DELILAH AHHH! Delilah stands up and rushes away from Steves body and further into woods. Delilah hops over a fallen branch and scans the dark woods for an escape. EXT. RAMSEY HOUSE- BACK LAWN- NIGHT Delilah rushes out of the woods and up a hill that leads to the Ramsey house. DELILAH Oh GOD! SOMEONE! PLEASE! HELP ME! Delilah rushes up the hill. She sees the large, deserted back lawn and the glass back door ahead. DELILAH (CONTD) Please! Someone!

Delilah SLAMS the phone down and looks around the large, beautiful master bedroom. Delilah turns and rushes through the door. INT. RAMSEY HOUSE- MASTER BATHROOM- NIGHT Delilah rushes into the master bathroom and sees no one or any help in sight. Delilah turns and begins to run back into the master bedroom...when she STOPS and freezes. SHE WATCHES AS THE WEREWOLF RUSHES PAST THE DOORWAY LEADING INTO THE MASTER BEDROOM. Delilah slowly backs away as she looks around the bathroom. She sees a laundry chute in the corner. She turns and opens a small cupboard. She searches, dropping towels to the floor. She then finds a white sheet. Delilah turns and ties one end of the sheet to the shower door handle. Delilah then grabs the other end of the sheet and walks to the laundry chute. She opens the lid to the chute as she glances back through the doorway to see the werewolf sniffing the floor of the master bedroom. Delilah holds in her scream as she lowers herself into the laundry chute. INT. RAMSEY HOUSE- LAUNDRY CHUTE- NIGHT Delilah holds onto the end of the sheet as she slowly reclines down the laundry chute. Delilah looks down to the bottom of the open chute. Delilah looks above to see the opening of the chute getting farther and farther as she continues to lower herself down.

Delilah inches down closer and closer towards the opening. Delilah looks back down to the opening as... THE WEREWOLF STICKS THEIR HEAD THROUGH THE OPENING BELOW DELILAH. DELILAH AHHHH! Delilah CRIES as she tries to climb back up the chute. The werewolf claws and digs at the opening of the chute, trying to fit through. DELILAH NO! AHHH! INT. RAMSEY HOUSE- MASTER BATHROOM- NIGHT The sheet tied to the shower door handle then...BEGINS TO RIP. INT. RAMSEY HOUSE- LAUNDRY CHUTE- NIGHT Delilah falls a few inches as the sheet begins to rip. DELILAH NO! NO! AHHH! NO! THE WEREWOLF HOWLS AND BARKS AS DELILAH IS LOWERED A FEW INCHES CLOSER TO THE OPENING BELOW. THE SHEET RIPS AGAIN, CAUSING DELILAH TO BE LOWERED A FEW MORE INCHES. SHE IS A FOOT AWAY FROM THE OPENING. THE WOLF THEN BITES INTO HER RED CLOAK AND TUGS ON IT. DELILAH (CONTD) AHH! Delilah holds onto the sheet as the cloak tightens around her neck. THE CLOAK THEN RIPS FROM HER NECK. THE WEREWOLF RELEASES THE CLOCK AS IT FALLS DOWN THROUGH THE OPENING. THE WEREWOLF STICKS THEIR HEAD THROUGH, STILL GOING AFTER DELILAH. DELILAH AHHH! Delilah pulls herself up the chute a few inches...causing the sheet to rip little by little.

27.

Delilah is lowered down...nearly inches from the werewolf below. Delilah CRIES as she makes one last attempt. She grabs the sheet with a tight grip and tries to crawl back up. INT. RAMSEY HOUSE- MASTER BATHROOM- NIGHT THE SHEET THEN RIPS COMPLETELY. INT. RAMSEY HOUSE- LAUNDRY CHUTE- NIGHT Delilah falls towards the opening as the sheet rips. DELILAH AHHH! THE WEREWOLF CONTINUES TO BARK AS DELILAH FALLS TOWARDS THE OPENING WHERE THE CREATURE WAITS BELOW. INT. RAMSEY HOUSE- MASTER BEDROOM- NIGHT The torn sheet hangs from the shower door handle as Delilah is heard screaming in agony as the werewolf begins to eat her. DELILAH (O.S.) AHHH! AHHH! NO! AHHHHHH! DELILAHS SCREAM ECHOS OUT... SMASH CUT TO: ACT 2 INT. NORAS CAR- NIGHT NORA EVETTS drives over a hard, large BUMP in the country road. She winces as her car jolts violently. MARNIE (angry) Shit! MARNIE KELLER stares into a compact mirror in her hand as she finishes her eyeliner. SHE JERKS THE PENCIL FROM HER EYE AS THE CAR JOLTS.

(CONTINUED)

CONTINUED: NORA (worried) Sorry! MARNIE (smirks) I know youre in a hurry to see Wes but slow it down. Youre going thirty over. NORA (smirks) I am not. Its fifty. MARNIE (finishes make up) Love how you skimmed over the Wes section of that remark. Really smooth...unlike your driving.

28.

Marnie Keller is a girl that has a mouth and knows how to use it. Shes not afraid of anyone or anything and isnt afraid to voice her opinion. For 17, shes very driven and mature. Marnia is dressed like Alice from "Alice in Wonderland"...but with a bit more sex appeal. NORA Me and Wes are just friends, Marnie. Nora Evetts is the girl next door...but with a bit of an edge. Shes mature yet knows how to have fun, but is just mature about it. 17, wide eyed, and innocent. Nora is dressed as a cowgirl; wearing a cowboy hat and a plaid mid-sleeve dress with cowgirl boots. MARNIE (smirks) Friends with benefits. NORA Not every guy in my circle of friends becomes a boy toy...unlike you. MARNIE Im just saying...I found my boy toy. Time to find yours, cowgirl. NORA I dont want to look like a fool. Wes is...Wes. Hes so outgoing and crazy and Im...

(CONTINUED)

CONTINUED: MARNIE (smirks) Boring? NORA (glares at Marnie) I am not boring! MARNIE (smirks) Nora, you never go out. You never go to any of the football games at school...youre totally sheltered. You just sit in your room and draw in that notebook you carry around everywhere all day and night. NORA (smirks) I go out! MARNIE Where? NORA I go...to school...and to... MARNIE The library doesnt count so dont even try. NORA (annoyed) Maybe my definition of fun is different than yours. MARNIE I just think maybe you wouldnt be having boy problems if you inserted yourself into more...youthful situations. Youre like an old woman...sitting at home. NORA Best friend, please, continue to tell me how awful and tragic my sad life is. MARNIE Im just trying to help you out, Nora. You used to be outgoing and we used to have a ton of fun. Remember that party we crashed freshmen year?

Nora GIGGLES with the memory along with Marnie. Nora nods as she grows quiet. MARNIE (CONTD) But ever since...since your parents died. NORA (snaps) They didnt die, Marnie. MARNIE OK, Im sorry...missing. Since your parents went missing. You just...havent been the same. Its been four years and I just feel that you need to grab your life by the balls and just live it. Just let go. NORA Its hard to let go when theres too much to hang onto. (pause) If I give up that hope...that my parents are still alive...somewhere...Id have nothing left. Id have nothing left to keep me sane. MARNIE Do you really believe that theyre still alive? Nora slowly looks to Marnie with doubt written on her face. Nora looks back to the road...and her foot SLAMS on the BRAKES. Nora and Marnie GASP as Noras car comes to a halt on the country road. MARNIE (catching her breath) My God... Marnie rolls down her window and looks up to see RODNEY LEIGH standing beside his car. RODNEY Hey, are you guys headed to Ashelys party? MARNIE (snarls) Yeah...whos asking?

RODNEY Im Rodney Leigh. I think I sit a few seats behind you in Calculus. MARNIE (annoyed) Really? RODNEY (thrilled) So you know me! MARNIE (snaps) No. RODNEY So chipper. Nora leans over beside Marnie to look up at Rodney. Rodney is 17 but appears a bit older. He isnt the most mature but he has a good heart. He is a bit awkward and sort of doesnt know when to shut up. He is dressed as a pirate. NORA Did you need a ride? RODNEY Hey, Nora. NORA (confused) I guess you sit behind me somewhere, too? RODNEY No...not exactly. Noras eyebrows rise as Rodney eyes his car on the side of the road. RODNEY (CONTD) I got a flat. I dont have a spare. You think you could give me a lift and Ill just come back for mine in the morning? MARNIE (annoyed) Well, actually...

CONTINUED: NORA (interrupts) Sure, hop in.

Marnie rolls her eyes at Nora as she rolls up her window. MARNIE Really? Cause this is a step up on the cool factor? NORA He needs help. Wouldnt you want someone to stop for you? MARNIE Yeah, but Im dressed as slutty Alice. Not Captain fucking Morgan. This is Rodney Leigh, Nora. Hes so creepy. NORA Well...this house is only a few miles up the road. Im sure you can manage. The backseat passenger door opens and Rodney settles inside the backseat. He sets his backpack into the floor. He scoots into the center of the backseat. RODNEY Thanks again, Nora. EXT. COUNTRY ROAD- NIGHT Noras car slowly speeds down the road, leaving Rodneys car behind. INT. NORAS CAR- NIGHT SILENCE fills the car. Nora tries not to SMIRK as she looks out at the curvy country road ahead. NORA So, nice costume. RODNEY OH, thanks. I just bought it. I thought it was pretty cool. Nora nods as Marnie stares out through the passenger window. She rolls her eyes as she smirks and looks to Nora.

MARNIE (sarcastic) OH, its super cute. RODNEY (excited) Thanks, Marnie. The SILENCE falls into place once again. Marnie examines her nails as Nora taps her fingers on the steering wheel. AWKWARD... RODNEY So, do you guys know much about this place...this Withers Mansion. MARNIE (sarcastic) No but Im sure you do. Wed be so excited to hear about it! RODNEY Its actually kinda freaky. NORA (interested) How so? MARNIE OH, GOD. Dont get Nora started. She loves freaky shit. Psychos, demons, ghosts. You should see her horror movie collection. RODNEY Me too! Youll love this, then. Apparently, this place is haunted. MARNIE (sarcastic) BUM BUM BUM! RODNEY Apparently, back in the early 60s, this young girl was possessed by a demon. Her father was a preacher and decided to preform his own exorcism. She ended up dying and apparently her demonic soul still haunts the inside...

(CONTINUED)

CONTINUED: NORA (intrigued) Holy shit. MARNIE How original. As if that isnt made into a horror movie every fifteen minutes. RODNEY Its true. I read about it in the library. MARNIE (looks to Nora) YOU SEE...thats the kind of people that hang in the library, Nora. Youre one of them! Nora SMIRKS. RODNEY Whats wrong? You dont believe in demons or ghosts? MARNIE I believe in what I can see. Show me a ghost or a demon or...whatever...and Ill be the first to admit that Im wrong. NORA (smirks) Be careful what you wish for.

34.

Marnie rolls her eyes as she SMIRKS and stares back out of the window. EXT. COUNTRY ROAD- NIGHT Noras car speeds around a curve and along the curvy country road. The Withers Mansion is seen in the distance ahead. INT. NORAS CAR- NIGHT MARNIE (looking to mansion ahead) Holy shit. Marnia, Nora, and Rodney all gaze upon the Withers Mansion ahead. Lights flash from inside, causing an unclear first impression.

35.

Noras car pulls onto a long, gravel road surrounded by woods. EXT. WITHERS MANSION- DRIVEWAY- NIGHT Noras car slowly pulls down the gravel driveway leading to the Withers Mansion. The driveway is surrounded by trees. Noras car slowly drives over a small hill...and there stands the Withers Mansion. The Withers Mansion stands three stories tall. Strobe lights flash from inside the mansion. Music thuds and echos from inside the chaotic fortress. The Withers Mansion is gigantic and massive...yet edgy and a bit creepy. Four columns line the front porch of the mansion. The mansion is sided with bricks and siding with paint slowly chipping away. Cars crowd the entire gravel driveway that lays in front of the large estate. The entire mansion is decorated with Halloween decor. From glowing ghosts to orange lights to fake gravestones lining the large lawn. The entire lining of the gutters and along the roof of the mansion is covered with strings of orange Halloween lights. INT. NORAS CAR- NIGHT Nora, Marnie, and Rodney stare at the mansion with wide, wondering eyes. NORA (shocked) Wow... MARNIE (giddy) SEE! Arent you glad you came, now! Come on! Marnie jumps out of the car. Nora watches as Rodney rushes out of the backseat. Nora takes one more look at the mansion...and steps out of the car.

36.

INT. WITHERS MANSION- FOYER- NIGHT The large wooden door opens to reveal...THE CHAOTIC AND CRAZY FOYER OF THE OLD WITHERS MANSION. Teens dressed in costumes dance and stand and mingle on every of the foyer. A large staircase that leads to the next level is crowded with a small group. Halloween lights are wrapped around the stairs railing. Strobe lights flash brightly as MUSIC pounds from the stereo in the corner. NORA (amazed) Oh..my..God MARNIE (smirks) And you wanted to stay home tonight. Nora, Marnie, and Rodney make their way through the crowded, dark foyer and deeper into the Withers Mansion. INT. WITHERS MANSION- PARLOR- NIGHT The dark parlor of the Withers Mansion is hectic and chaotic. Many, many teens in costumes stand and chat or dance in their own groups as the music BOOMS through the estate and the strobe lights flash around them. Marnie leads Nora through the crowd, their hands locked. Nora glances back to see Rodney nowhere in sight. NORA (shouts over music) Wait, Rodney! We lost Rodney! MARNIE (laughs) Good! Nora SMIRKS as she shakes her head and continues to follow Marnie through the crazy parlor. Nora glances back as she follows Marnie. Her eyes scan the parlor for Rodney...but with no luck. ASHLEY (O.S.) Marnie, you made it!

Nora turns, nearly bumping into Marnie as she comes to a halt. Nora and Marnie stare back at ASHLEY WHITE. Ashley is that hot girl that all of the boys chase. She is 17 but her costume makes her look much, much older. Ashley is dressed as a sexy vampire. She takes her fake teeth out as she continues. ASHLEY(CONTD) (confused) And you brought a friend? MARNIE Hey, Ashley! Yeah, this is Nora. ASHLEY (put off) Nice to meet you... Ashley holds her hand out and Nora shakes it as she smiles. NORA Yeah, we actually have English together. MARNIE (whispers to Nora in embarrassment) God, youre starting to sound like Rodney. ASHLEY Oh...I wasnt aware. Im sorry. You know how big our school is. Its easy to get lost in the crowd. Nora SMIRKS as she glares at Ashley. MARCIE (breaks the silence) SO, this party is fucking awesome. I cant believe your dad rented this place. ASHLEY Well, I guess having a real estate agent for a father helps. This place has been for sale for nearly a decade. So, he let me use it for the night. NORA (smirks) (MORE) (CONTINUED)

NORA (contd) Because no one wants to buy a house with a demonic little girl running around inside. ASHLEY (confused) What? MARNIE (interrupts) Wheres Dean? ASHLEY OH, I lost him in the crowd. Im sure hell turn up somewhere. MARNIE Well, well see you later, OK? Im gonna see if I can Brigg. ASHLEY Hes in the kitchen. I just saw him. MARNIE Thanks! Marnie heads towards the kitchen, forgetting Nora. Ashley sips from her drink as she eyes Nora. NORA Dean better hurry up and find you...before you find somebody else. ASHLEY (angry) Whats that supposed to mean? NORA I think you know what it means. Im a friend of Megans. ASHLEY (steps towards Nora) Look, I dont know what that little bitch told you...but shes a liar. NORA (smirks) Really?

ASHLEY (snaps back) YEAH. NORA Too bad she saw the texts. ASHLEY (eyes widen) What texts? NORA The ones between you and Mitch. You should remember...you seemed pretty into it. ASHLEY (angry) If you tell anyone... NORA No. Why would I tell anyone? Its not true, right? You said so yourself... Nora turns and walks through the crowd. Nora SIGHS in anger as she takes another sip of her drink. She turns and rushes into the crowd. INT. WITHERS MANSION- KITCHEN- NIGHT The kitchen is the least chaotic in the Withers Mansion. A few teens stand in the corner and chat. A few others sit at the bar sipping their drinks. Nora rushes into the kitchen, her eyes scanning the room. She spots Marnie and BRIGG MATTHEWS standing by the bar. Nora walks towards them. NORA Does that costume come with a real gun? Nora eyes Briggs gangster costume. Brigg is clean-cut and a bit cocky. He can be mean but he never comes off that way intentionally. Hes 17 but looks a bit younger. BRIGG God, I wish. I have a few people I use it on in mind.

MARNIE (laughs) Like Rodney Leigh? Nora SMIRKS as she looks to Marnie. BRIGG Especially Rodney Leigh. MARNIE (to Nora) Arent you gonna ask him? NORA (confused) Ask him what? MARNIE Brigg, wheres Wes? BRIGG (looks to Nora, smiling) AH, so you and Wes are gonna hit it off? NORA (annoyed) No! God, why does everyone keep saying that? BRIGG Because its obvious you two are in love. NORA (sarcastic) Because youre the master of love. BRIGG (smirks) I prefer Brigg but Ill take that title, too. But, in all seriousness...hes out back. MARNIE (giddy) OH, hes waiting for you! Nora rolls her eyes as she BLUSHES. MARNIE (CONTD) Go get em, cowgirl!

Nora turns and walks towards the backdoor beside the bar. Marnie wraps her arms around Brigg as she looks up at him. MARNIE (CONTD) I told you we were supposed to match... BRIGG They were out of Mad Hatter costumes. I told you that a dozen times. MARNIE (annoyed) Think theyll hit it off. BRIGG Wes kept asking me about her earlier today. MARNIE Shell probably flake out. She chokes...she always does. BRIGG (smirks) Thats not always a bad thing. Marnie ROLLS her eyes at the comment and hits him in the shoulder. Marnie walks out of the kitchen as Brigg grabs another shot. BRIGG (to himself) Boy...you did it again. EXT. WITHERS MANSION- BACK LAWN- NIGHT Nora walks along the large back lawn of the Withers Mansion. Many teens stand in their own groups talking and fraternizing. Music BOOMS from inside the house. The entire back lawn is surrounded by a thick woods. A full moon sits high in the sky. Nora spots a few familiar faces sitting around the large bonfire in the center of the back lawn. Log stumps circle the large bonfire like chairs. Nora inches closer to see WES BURNINGHAM, CASEY RHYMER, AND LIAM ROGERS.

CASEY (looks to Nora) Awe, you look cute! Nora BLUSHES as Wes and Liam follow Caseys gaze to see Nora standing behind them. NORA (laughs) I found all of this in my closet. CASEY Its so adorable, though. God, this piece of thread cost a fortune. Nora eyes Caseys revealing outfit. She is a sexy fairy. She holds a small wand with a glittering star at the end of it. Casey is 17 but very peppy and quirky. Shes cute yet knows how to have fun and never stops having it. NORA Its cute, though, Casey. WES I thought you wouldnt show. Nora eyes Wes as she takes the stump next to his. NORA (smirks) I thought I wouldnt, either. Wes is dressed as a doctor. He is wearing blue scrubs and holds his surgical mask and cap in his hands. Wes is 17 but he looks older. He is built like a jock but doesnt have the brains and mannerisms like one. Hes kind and gentle. But totally outgoing. CASEY Is Marnie here? NORA Yeah, shes inside. CASEY She was supposed to text me when you guys got here. LIAM Signal out here is shit. It probably didnt send through.

Liam is dressed up as a member of the SWAT team. Liam is 17 and loves to have fun and make people laugh. Hes a wild card. CASEY (annoyed) Oh God, my moms gonna fucking flip if she tries calling me and I dont answer. LIAM (smirks) We heard you had to give Rodney a lift. NORA Yeah. That was interesting. LIAM (smirks) Im shocked you both got here alive. CASEY Im sure hes a nice guy. People just dont give him a chance, I think. LIAM Have you ever talked to him? Trust me, the day you do...youll feel different about the subject. NORA He was actually kinda cool. LIAM (smirks) And with that...I need another drink. Liam stands and looks down at Wes. LIAM (CONTD) (to Wes) You want one? WES No, Liam... Im good. Liam shrugs and heads back towards the mansion. SILENCE. Wes, Nora, and Casey all sit. CRICKETS CHIRP in the woods and others around them drift in their own conversations. AWKWARD. (CONTINUED)

CASEY (smirks) I think this is where Im supposed to leave. Good luck, Nora. Casey stands and rushes back towards the mansion, leaving Wes and Nora alone. WES (giggles) Good luck? What do you need good luck for, Nora? NORA (giggles) I need it every chance I can get. WES So...what made you come out tonight? NORA (worried) OH...well...I... WES I just never see you at these types of things. NORA Well...its Halloween...and I just felt like being a bit dangerous and...I wanted to take a bit of a risk. WES Im happy you did. Nora BLUSHES as she looks away from Wes and to the burning flames of the bonfire in front of them. INT. WITHERS MANSION- BATHROOM- NIGHT The loud music downstairs is faint and barely audible. Ashley is sitting on the toilet lid with her phone in her hand. She wipes the tears away from her face as she scrolls through the texts between her and Mitch Thomas, Megan Ramseys boyfriend.

She then creates a new message...to MEGAN. Ashley begins to type--"Megan, its Ashley White. I just wanted to apologize. It was me. I was with Mitch that night."-Ashley sends the message. She stares at her screen as it processes. MESSAGE FAILED appears. ASHLEY (angry) SHIT! Ashley leans back on the toilet and stares up at the ceiling as she CRIES. She leans forward and slowly stands. She walks to the sink counter and looks into the mirror. Her mascara is running down her face. She sets her phone down and leans forward. She holds her face above the sink as she turns on the water. She cups her hands, the water filling them. She splashes the water onto her face a few times. Ashley grabs a towel and slowly sits up to see...A DEMONIC GIRL STARING AT HER UPSIDE DOWN..FACE TO FACE WITH ASHLEY. SHE IS HANGING FROM THE CEILING ABOVE. HER WET, STRINGY HAIR HANGS DOWN OVER HER DEFORMED FACE. ASHLEY AHHHH! Ashley drops the towel and backs away as she SCREAMS. Ashley SLAMS against the wall behind her and falls to the floor. SMASH CUT TO: INT. WITHERS MANSION- SECOND FLOOR HALLWAY- NIGHT ASHLEY SCREAMS BEHIND THE CLOSED BATHROOM DOOR AS NUMEROUS THUDS ARE HEARD FROM INSIDE. ASHLEY (O.S.) AHHHHHHH! INT. WITHERS MANSION- PARLOR- NIGHT DEAN JEFFERIES pushes through the crowded parlor, making his way to Casey and Marnie in the corner. Dean is dressed as a sailor. Dean is 17 but looks much older. He is the typical jock but with a bit more heart and drive. (CONTINUED)

CONTINUED: DEAN (to Casey) Hey, have you seen Ashley? CASEY No, why? MARNIE (to Dean) The last time I saw her, she was looking for you. DEAN We got separated by the crowd. CASEY (whispers in Deans ear) Well if you cant find her, you can come find me. Casey WINKS at Dean as he SMIRKS and shakes his head, denying her offer. CASEY (CONTD) OH, come on. Dont act like shes a saint. You know youve heard the rumors. DEAN (snaps) Its not true. CASEY Thats not what the entire student body heard. Do you really want to be made a fool? Come on, Dean...you deserve better. Casey moves closer towards Dean. DEAN (snaps back) And thats you; the school marry-go-round? Excuse me.

Dean pushes past Casey as her jaw drops. Marnie LAUGHS as Dean walks away. CASEY (to DEAN) DICK! Casey looks to Marnie as she continues to laugh.

CASEY (CONTD) Shut up, Marnie! Thats not funny! MARNIE (takes a sip of her drink as she laughs) OH, yes it FUCKING is! (pause) Cause its true! Casey rolls her eyes and scans the party as Marnie continues to crack up hysterically. Casey crosses her arms in anger. INT. WITHERS MANSION- SECOND FLOOR HALLWAY- NIGHT The second floor hallway of the Withers Mansion is silent and dark. The bathroom door slowly CREEEEKS open, revealing darkness inside. ASHLEY then slowly steps out of the darkness and into the hallway. Her hair is tangled and matted. Her head hangs down as she shuffles out of the bathroom and into the dark, deserted hallway. She holds her balance by put her hand against the wall. Its as if...shes in a trance. She slowly edges down the hallway...her feet trying their best to work. Her feet slowly begin to adjust under her as she makes her way down the dark, long hallway. EXT. WITHERS MANSION- BACK LAWN- NIGHT Nora and Wes still sit around the bonfire. They are almost alone...besides a few groups standing and chatting near the mansion. Nora LAUGHS as Wes continues his story. WES (laughs) And so I just told them that I wasnt drunk...but they knew I was. It was...awkward to say the least. NORA (smirks) God, youre such a bad influence.

48.

WES What about your parents? Noras smile fades as she looks down and away from Wes. WES (CONTD) That was my crazy story about mine. I cant believe they didnt kill me. Let me hear about yours. NORA (looks to Wes) Uh...my parents...theyre not around. WES What do you mean? NORA (smirks) Dont pretend...youre awful at it. WES OK, you caught me. NORA I know what everyone thinks. I know what everyone says about me. They say that Im just this little too scared to believe that her parents are really dead. WES You dont believe they are, though? NORA (looks to Wes) I dont know what I believe. I mean, people look at me like Im crazy when I say that...that theyre alive. I know theyre dead..but..its like I dont want to know it. Its like I really just dont want to believe it. My mind doesnt want to go to that place. WES You cant pretend, either, Nora. Its life. You cant keep shoving your fears and worries into the same box or its gonna explode.

(CONTINUED)

CONTINUED: NORA (smirks slightly) Its easier to keep them all locked up together, though, Wes. WES What happened?

49.

Nora shifts on the log stump as she looks to the fire and back to him. NORA It was right after the start of freshmen year. They had to go up north to see my grandma. She was really sick and the doctors were afraid this was going to be her last year. They didnt want me to miss school. They said they were going to be up there for a few weeks, getting everything situated and figured out. (pause) The night they left, we got a call. They said that my parents car was found in a flooded ditch right off the highway...totally submerged in water. But, their bodies werent inside. They said that they probably went down stream; that they probably drowned. But, growing up I was always hoping and praying that theyd come walking back through the door. But...they never did. And to this day...sometimes...I still wait for it. Wess eyebrows rise as he looks to the fire and then back to Nora. WES (shocked) Damn...thats rough. NORA (giggles) Now youve seen inside the demented mind of high school reject, Nora Evetts. WES (smirks) Youre not a reject.

NORA (laughs) OK...outsider, whatever. I know my cliche. WES We all adjust to different stages of life differently. Thats just...your way of doing it; of adjusting. Dont let anyone tell you that youre wrong, though. You do what you gotta do. If that means drawing in your little notebook...then so be it. NORA (shocked) Howd you know about my notebook? WES Are you kidding? I see you in the hallway with that thing all the time. Ive always wanted to ask you what you were drawing, but... NORA (intrigued) But what? WES (smirks and looks down) I guess (pause) I found you intimidating. NORA (laughs) ME? Intimidating? WES Yeah. Im good at reading people. But...you...I cant figure out. Youre so...different. And I really (pause) I really like that, Nora. Nora looks down as she fights back the redness spreading across her cheeks. NORA (barely audible) You do?

(CONTINUED)

CONTINUED:

51.

WES Yes. (pause) Its hard to find. Its hard to find someone worth figuring out. And...youre worth it to me. Nora smiles as Wes BLUSHES and looks down and away from her. SNAP! Nora and Wes both look up. They are alone in the deserted back lawn. The others have already headed back inside without them. Nora and Wes scan the woods surrounding them as another twig SNAPS in the dark forest. NORA (nervous) What was that? WES (smirks) Deer, maybe... SNAP! Nora and Wes both look back at the woods surrounding them. Nora rubs her hands together nervously. NORA (smirks) Please dont be one of those idiot guys that goes to investigate a noise in the woods...please. WES (smirks) You kidding? Im not that brave. Nora laughs along with Wes as they look back to the bonfire. WES (CONTD) (laughs) If I go, youre coming with me. Nora and Wes continue to laugh as they watch the bonfire begin to slowly subside. INT.

LIAM (to Brigg) Give it an hour or two. Marnie rushes to Brigg and wraps her arms around him. MARNIE (shocked) Youre still drinking? BRIGG (smirks) Youre still talking? Marnie smacks Brigg in the head as he LAUGHS with Liam and Dean. LIAM (to Casey) Casey, you not find a new victim in the crowd? Casey glares at Liam. DEAN (to Liam) OH, she tried all right! CASEY Its not my fault Dean doesnt know a good girl when he sees one. LIAM (smirks) NO, he knows a slut when he sees one. Sure he wouldnt want to get any new diseases tonight.

Ashley wraps her arms around Dean and kisses him violently on the cheek. She then quickly turns him towards her. Deans eyes widen at her sudden offer. Casey and Marnie watch in disgust as Liam and Brigg watch...smiling. Ashley digs her tongue into Deans mouth as he slowly pulls away. DEAN (disgusted) Whoa...Ash..calm down. ASHLEY (barely audible) Dean...come on...Dean. DEAN (worried) God, youre drunk. Dean stands and wraps his arm around her. He leads her towards the doorway, her feet dragging underneath her. LIAM (takes another shot) The most action Ill ever witness tonight. BRIGG Awe, Casey is still open for business, Im sure. CASEY (angry) Fuck you, Brigg!

Casey turns and dashes out of the kitchen. Marnie SMIRKS as she sits at the bar beside Brigg. INT. WITHERS MANSION- PARLOR- NIGHT Rodney stands awkwardly in the corner, slowly trying to find the rhythm of the song BOOMING from the radio...but obviously failing. He scans the large parlor full of his peers...but not talking to anyone. CASEY (O.S.) Dancing alone? Rodneys eyes widen as he spins around to see Casey standing behind him. Rodney SMIRKS nervously. RODNEY No, just...observing. CASEY (smirks) So is that a no? RODNEY (confused) What? CASEY If a pretty girl asks you to dance...you usually say yes. RODNEY (nervous) OH...Im sorry...I...I wasnt aware that...that YOU wanted to dance. CASEY How can I make the message a bit more clear? Casey runs her finger along his arm and up to his shoulder.

He turns to see Brigg walking from the door and towards him. He takes a drag and exhales as Brigg heads his way. BRIGG (confused) What are you doing out here? Wheres Casey? LIAM (checks his watch) Dancing with that Rodney guy. Im sure shes getting to know him quite well right about now. Brigg sits next to Liam on the steps. Liam continues to smoke.

Shes not going to do all the work. LIAM And then what--get shot down? Its easy for you, man. Its just...not easy for me. Im not outspoken and...not brutally blunt like you. BRIGG Its not about being blunt...its about being honest. Be honest with her. Who knows...maybe she feels the same. Like you said, Casey is Casey. BUT, shes also a girl and they are all the same...deep, deep down. I mean deep, deep, really deep down Im sure Casey wants a boyfriend. BUT deep deep deep deep, DEEP DEEP down...I mean really deep. Liam and Brigg share a laugh as Liam nods. Brigg pats Liam on the back as he stands and heads back towards the front door. BRIGG (CONTD) You coming? LIAM (takes a drag) One sec...

Liams eyebrows widen as he steps a bit closer towards the woods only a few feet ahead. SILENCE. LIAM Fuck this... Liam turns...AND SCREAMS AS HE BUMPS INTO A FAKE HANGING SKELETON. LIAM (CONTD) AHH!

LIAM (CONTD) Fucking Halloween... Liam SIGHS as he turns...TO BUMP INTO THE FIGURE WITH THE JACK-O-LANTERN MASK. THE FIGURE RAISES THEIR KNIFE AND SLASHES AT LIAM. LIAM AHH!

Ashley continues to move back and forth on top of Dean...as he slowly opens his eyes. He watches her...her head still back, staring at the ceiling. DEAN (breathing heavy) Babe? Wh-what are you doing? Ashley? Ashleys head flings forward and she stares down at Dean. Her eyes close as she claws into Deans chest. Dean watches her...confused and somewhat scared. DEAN (CONTD) Ash? Ash, calm down. Easy... Ashley leans down again as she digs her tongue into Deans mouth. ASHLEY THEN FLINGS BACK UP AND HER HEAD TURNS VIOLENTLY AROUND, HER HEAD DOING A 180.

His eyes scan the woods and the country landscape around the house. WES (unconvinced) Maybe... Wes turns and walks towards the front porch of the mansion. Nora follows by his side, a bit nervous and scared. WES (CONTD) I told you. NORA (confused) What? WES If I went to investigate a noise, youd come with me. NORA (smirks) Im that idiot, too, I guess.

Nora pushes past Marnie and pushes the front door open. Marnie SIGHS in anger as she eyes Wes. He is staring straight at her. MARNIE (to Wes, annoyed) What are you looking at? WES A bad friend is what Im looking at. MARNIE (angry) Wes...you are the last person to be talking. Playing games with her like you do with every other girl. Its pathetic. WES (annoyed) Just because I turned you down doesnt have anything to do with your stupid little teen angst you got going, now does it? MARNIE (snaps back) You didnt turn me down, Wes. WES OH, I did and that kills you. It kills you that I like Nora. Thats why you settled for Brigg. Dont try to get in my business just because you cant be apart of it.

Ever since your parents...disappeared. I guess me and Marnie have just (pause) clicked more. NORA Im happy you two have gotten closer. Because, honestly...I dont really consider Marnie a friend anymore. At least shell still have you. Ill tell Rodney youre looking for him if I see him.

RODNEY STEPS BACK AS...BRIGG BURSTS OUT THROUGH THE DOOR. RODNEY (scared) SHIT! BRIGG (shocked) Whoa! Whoa! Rodney tries to catch his breath along with Brigg. Brigg then begins to laugh. BRIGG (CONTD) That face...priceless, Rodney. RODNEY (catching is breath) What are you doing? BRIGG OH, I was... Marnie steps out from behind Brigg and into the hallway. She wipes tears from her eyes and tries to hide her face. MARNIE (interrupts to Rodney) We were just leaving... Marnie stomps down the hallway as Brigg looks to Rodney and shrugs. BRIGG (annoyed) Always something with these chicks, am I right?

I always have and I always will...but you have got to start opening up yourself to me. I feel like you just...shut down with me. Marnie nods as Brigg wipes her tears away. BRIGG (CONTD) OK? Marnie SMIRKS as she SNIFFS. MARNIE (giggling) You remember when we...we stole your dads car and drove upstate and...fooled around in the backseat and got caught by the cops? BRIGG (laughs) Yes...and so does my father. MARNIE As crazy and as messed up as that night was...Ill never forget that. I felt so...connected with you and so lost in you.

Marnie drops her phone as she SIGHS. MARNIE (annoyed) Fucking perfect. Marnie then turns and searches the back of the van for clothing. She grabs a wrinkled long sleeve flannel shirt and slips it on. She buttons it as she eyes Briggs phone beside her. She finishes buttoning the large flannel and looks at the window out looking the woods. She sees Brigg nowhere...the coast is clear. Marnie grabs Briggs phone and begins to snoop. MARNIE (to Briggs phone) Lets see what youve been up to... INT.

Nora hangs in the air as she looks up to see the figure cutting the string of lights with their knife. NORA NO! NO! PLEASE!

Marnie SIGHS as she pulls her underwear on and wraps herself up in the blanket. BEHIND HER, A SHADOWY FIGURE PASSES BY THE WINDOW. Marnie doesnt notice as she looks around the back of the messy van.

Silence then falls through the mansion...Marnies screams grow mute...Nora slowly takes her hands off of her ears. NORA (crying) Marnie...Oh God... Nora CRIES as she slowly grabs the bar and pulls herself up. She looks at the door cautiously. Nora then slowly inches towards it. Nora walks to the door and peeks down through the small door window. She sees the werewolf nowhere in sight... SHE THEN SEES MARNIES MUTILATED BODY ON THE GROUND IN PIECES RIGHT OUTSIDE THE DOOR. Nora covers her mouth as she backs away. Nora rushes to the sink and VOMITS into it. Nora continues to vomit as she CRIES and SOBS. Nora then slowly sits up. She turns on the water and sips from the faucet. She spits the water into the sink as she turns the faucet off. Nora slowly stands up straight and grabs a towel. She wipes her mouth as she slowly turns and looks back at the bloody doggy door. Nora then listens...she hears a faint noise from outside the mansion..POLICE SIRENS.

Nora sinks down the door and onto the floor as she CRIES. She looks at Rodneys hanging body and the mess surrounding her. Nora slowly stands up as she looks around the foyer. She eyes Deans body on the floor beside the stairs. She walks towards his body. She walks around it...BEHIND HER, ASHLEY IS SEEN STANDING IN THE DOORWAY OF THE PARLOR IN THE SHADOWS. CREEEK. Noras eyes widen as she slowly turns to see Ashleys figure standing in the doorway. Tears stream down as Nora stares back at Nora...the SILENCE surrounding them. Demon Ashley breathes heavy and chokes as blood gushes down her throat. Nora slowly turns and begins to back away. NORA Ashley... Ashley stands still...watching Nora closely. NORA Its me...its Nora...please. ASHLEY THEN CHARGES AT NORA AS SHE SHRIEKS DEMONICALLY. NORA BACKS AWAY AS ASHLEY CHARGES HER. ASHLEY SLAMS NORA AGAINST THE RAILING OF THE STAIRS BEHIND HER.

She slides open on of the glass shower doors and looks inside. She glances back at the door to see the wolfs claws tearing at the door...a small hole begins to form as the wolf bites and tears at the door. Nora climbs into the bathtub and slides one of the glass doors shut behind her. INT. WITHERS MANSION- BATHROOM SHOWER- NIGHT Nora sinks down onto the floor of the bathtub as she holds both doors shut, shivering and scared. Nora listens as the WOLF CLAWS AND TEARS AT THE WOOD OF THE BATHROOM DOOR. Nora closes her eyes...and opens them...SILENCE. Nora listens. The tearing of the wood...it stopped. Nora slowly looks at the glass of the shower door. The glass has a rippled design, so she cant see clearly into the bathroom. Nora listens...and waits as she holds both doors shut.
