seven people, including my brother,

have been murdered in it.

Since then, I've owned the house.

You're all invited.

If any of you will spend the next 
twelve hours in this house,

I'll give you each $10,000 -

Her sense of humor is, shall we say, 
original.

So, no doubt a brave man.

42

But don't you think you can be 
much braver if you're paid for it?

43

And I happen to know that Lance

44

This is Ruth Bridgers.

You've no doubt read her column
in the newspapers.

48
00:02:57,289 --> 00:02:59,330
She says her reason 
for coming to the party

49
00:02:59,330 --> 00:03:01,590
is to write a feature article on ghosts.

50
00:03:02,278 --> 00:03:05,608
She's also desperate for money. 
Gambles.

to spend another night here.

I wonder why.

55
00:03:17,485 --> 00:03:19,095
He says "for money".

56
00:03:21,189 --> 00:03:23,998
This is Dr. David Trent, a psychiatrist.

He claims that my ghosts 
will help his work on hysteria.

This is Nora Manning.

I picked her from the thousands 
of people who work for me

62
00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:44,261

more than most.

We found parts of the bodies 
all over the house.

175
00:12:11,784 --> 00:12:13,281
In places you wouldn't think.

176
00:12:14,352 --> 00:12:16,780
A funny thing is, the heads have 
never been found.

177
00:12:17,395 --> 00:12:19,182
Hands and feet and things like that.

178
00:12:19,649 --> 00:12:21,107
But no heads.

179
00:12:21,738 --> 00:12:24,632
David: The wife, probably in a rage, 
threatened her husband with a knife

180
00:12:24,632 --> 00:12:27,477
and then, carried away by hysteria, 
took a swing at him,

181
00:12:27,477 --> 00:12:29,031
and simply went on from there.

182
00:12:29,031 --> 00:12:32,042
Lance: She certainly went on. How many 
people did she kill, Mr. Pritchard?

183
00:12:32,722 --> 00:12:34,043
Watson: Only two.

184
00:12:34,043 --> 00:12:36,415
Her husband and her sister. No one 
else was here.

185
00:12:36,416 --> 00:12:39,476
Lance: So there are two loose heads 
floating around here somewhere?

186
00:12:39,866 --> 00:12:41,706
Watson: You can hear them at night.

187
00:12:41,844 --> 00:12:44,644
They whisper to each other.
And then cry.

188
00:12:45,006 --> 00:12:46,525
( Lance laughs )

189
00:12:46,623 --> 00:12:49,752
Ruth: Since our host isn't here, 
would anyone care to mix me a drink?

190
00:12:50,405 --> 00:12:52,509
David: Certainly. What will you have?

191
00:12:52,512 --> 00:12:53,499
( door opens )

192
00:12:56,349 --> 00:12:57,132
Fredrick: Good evening.

193
00:12:57,132 --> 00:12:58,256
(door shuts)

194
00:12:58,616 --> 00:13:01,008
I'm your host, Fredrick Loren.

195
00:13:02,492 --> 00:13:05,514
Since we're all strangers to each other, 
let's get acquainted with a drink,

196
00:13:05,514 --> 00:13:06,514
shall we?

197
00:13:06,514 --> 00:13:10,961
Watson: Mr. Loren, I advise you to 
call this party off now.

198
00:13:11,146 --> 00:13:13,649
The ghosts are already moving 
and that's a bad sign.

199
00:13:13,942 --> 00:13:16,879
Fredrick: Let me apologize for my wife. 
She'll join us later.

200
00:13:16,890 --> 00:13:18,820
- What will you have?
- Ruth: Scotch and.

201
00:13:18,823 --> 00:13:20,931
- Doctor?
- David: I'll have the same.

202
00:13:20,966 --> 00:13:24,698
Fredrick: Now, before the party begins, 
let's go over the details.

203
00:13:24,698 --> 00:13:25,838
(pouring drinks)

204
00:13:25,838 --> 00:13:28,211
The caretakers will leave at midnight,

205
00:13:28,236 --> 00:13:31,143
locking us in here, 
until they come back in the morning.

206
00:13:31,682 --> 00:13:34,789
Once the door is locked, 
there's no way out.

207
00:13:35,357 --> 00:13:38,703
(Fredrick) The windows have bars
that a jail would be proud of.

208
00:13:39,446 --> 00:13:42,476
(Fredrick) And the only door 
to the outside locks like a vault.

209
00:13:42,816 --> 00:13:47,551
There's no electricity. No phone.
No one within miles.

210
00:13:48,468 --> 00:13:50,512
So, no way to call for help.

211
00:13:51,995 --> 00:13:53,358
Watson: Like a coffin.

212
00:13:53,358 --> 00:13:54,578
(stops pouring drink)

213
00:13:56,474 --> 00:13:58,248
Fredrick: So! If any of you 
decide not to stay for the party,

214
00:13:58,248 --> 00:13:59,248
(ice rattling)

215
00:13:59,248 --> 00:14:01,297
you must let me know before midnight.

216
00:14:01,708 --> 00:14:05,357
Of course, if you leave, I shan't be able 
to pay you anything.

217
00:14:06,110 --> 00:14:09,686
David: I'm interested in your reasons 
for this... "party".

218
00:14:10,707 --> 00:14:12,706
Aside from pleasant company.

219
00:14:14,407 --> 00:14:15,864
Fredrick: Ghosts, Doctor!

220
00:14:16,501 --> 00:14:19,011
I think everyone wonders 
what they would do

221
00:14:19,149 --> 00:14:20,864
if they saw a ghost.

222
00:14:23,410 --> 00:14:26,393
And now my wife has given us 
the opportunity to find out.


223
00:14:26,461 --> 00:14:27,626
David: Hm. Amusing.

224
00:14:27,642 --> 00:14:31,112
David: Ghosts, etcetera, being only 
creations of hysteria,

225
00:14:31,447 --> 00:14:33,689
your party should be a success!

226
00:14:34,275 --> 00:14:36,927
Fredrick: Pritchard here promises us 
genuine ghosts.

227
00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:40,834
Watson: Seven, now. Maybe more 
before morning.

228
00:14:41,998 --> 00:14:43,417
Fredrick: That's cheerful.

229
00:14:44,578 --> 00:14:47,000
Watson: Four men have been 
murdered in this house.

230
00:14:48,538 --> 00:14:49,525
And three women.

231
00:14:49,893 --> 00:14:52,361
David: You planned your party 
very well, Mr. Loren.

232
00:14:52,361 --> 00:14:54,154
Four of us are men. Three are women.

233
00:14:55,118 --> 00:14:56,401
A ghost for everybody.

234
00:14:57,808 --> 00:15:00,592
Fredrick: Pritchard, why don't you take 
us on a tour through the house?

235
00:15:00,592 --> 00:15:02,416
Let's see what happens?

236
00:15:12,224 --> 00:15:15,290
Watson: See that stain? Blood.

237
00:15:16,754 --> 00:15:19,129
Watson: A young girl was killed here.

238
00:15:19,999 --> 00:15:21,749
And whatever got her, wasn't human -

239
00:15:21,875 --> 00:15:24,356
- Don't stand there!
- Ruth: What do you mean? Where?

240
00:15:25,446 --> 00:15:28,286
(panicky music)

241
00:15:32,441 --> 00:15:35,041
(ominous music)

242
00:15:36,136 --> 00:15:37,381
Watson: It's too late. 
They've marked you.

243
00:15:38,035 --> 00:15:40,269
David: Ridiculous. The roof 
probably leaks.

244
00:15:40,512 --> 00:15:43,484
Ruth: That must be what it is. 
Who'd want to haunt me?

245
00:15:43,869 --> 00:15:46,205
Fredrick: I'd say any self-respecting 
male ghost.

246
00:15:46,643 --> 00:15:48,669
Watson: I hope it doesn't come back.

247
00:15:48,669 --> 00:15:50,967
David: Mr. Pritchard, you're the 
life of the party.

248
00:15:50,967 --> 00:15:52,471
Fredrick: He hasn't even started yet.

249
00:15:52,471 --> 00:15:55,855
Wasn't there a man who threw his wife 
into a wine vat or something?

250
00:15:56,215 --> 00:15:57,896
Watson: That was in the cellar.

251
00:15:57,966 --> 00:16:00,374
There's been a murder almost every 
place in this house.

252
00:16:00,374 --> 00:16:02,095
(door opens swiftly)

253
00:16:02,105 --> 00:16:05,705
(woeful music)

254
00:16:05,705 --> 00:16:09,415
(footsteps on stairs)

255
00:16:09,430 --> 00:16:15,380
(woeful music)

256
00:16:16,810 --> 00:16:21,413
Watson: All this belonged to a Mr. Norton, 
who didn't die here.

257
00:16:21,459 --> 00:16:24,682
He was electrocuted later.

258
00:16:25,971 --> 00:16:30,537
Watson: Mr. Norton did a good deal of 
experimenting with wines.

259
00:16:30,936 --> 00:16:33,880
But his wife didn't think 
it was any good.

260
00:16:34,628 --> 00:16:38,238
So he filled a vat with acid and 
threw her in.

261
00:16:38,541 --> 00:16:41,157
(Watson) She was supposed to stay down,

262
00:16:41,977 --> 00:16:44,017
but the bones came up.

263
00:16:45,217 --> 00:16:47,348
Watson: It's a funny thing.

264
00:16:47,639 --> 00:16:50,492
None of the murders here 
were just ordinary.

265
00:16:50,915 --> 00:16:53,971
Just shooting. Or stabbing.

266
00:16:55,495 --> 00:16:59,857
They've all been sort of wild. 
Violent, and different.

267
00:17:00,797 --> 00:17:01,567
(dramatic music)

268
00:17:01,567 --> 00:17:02,447
Lance: Look out!

269
00:17:02,447 --> 00:17:03,257
(woodwind music)

270
00:17:03,577 --> 00:17:05,887
Watson: Thank God she didn't fall in.

271
00:17:05,887 --> 00:17:08,346
Nora: You mean there's still acid
in there?

272
00:17:10,187 --> 00:17:13,777
(woodwind music)

273
00:17:26,089 --> 00:17:30,582
( violent bubbling )

274
00:17:30,980 --> 00:17:34,808
Watson: Destroys everything 
with hair and flesh.

275
00:17:35,429 --> 00:17:39,072
Just leaves the bones.

276
00:17:39,274 --> 00:17:40,874
(piano trill)

277
00:17:41,205 --> 00:17:43,345
(trumpeting)

278
00:17:44,681 --> 00:17:46,141
(quiet bubbling)

279
00:17:50,457 --> 00:17:53,538
Watson: My, it's dry and dusty 
down here.

280
00:17:54,515 --> 00:17:58,245
Fredrick: Well there's... a cure... 
for that...upstairs. Come on.

281
00:18:10,686 --> 00:18:11,946
(door shuts firmly)

282
00:18:11,948 --> 00:18:14,088
Lance: How'd you get invited 
to this party?

283
00:18:15,697 --> 00:18:16,697
(door quickly opens)

284
00:18:17,002 --> 00:18:18,002
(door quickly shuts)

285
00:18:18,307 --> 00:18:20,563
Lance: I mean, what'd he tell you?

286
00:18:24,070 --> 00:18:27,214
Nora: Mr. Loren said everybody 
would get $10,000.

287
00:18:27,773 --> 00:18:29,851
Lance: But he didn't say anything 
about being locked in.

288
00:18:30,104 --> 00:18:31,011
Nora: No.

289
00:18:31,713 --> 00:18:34,312
Lance: He just made the deal with me 
on the phone.

290
00:18:34,442 --> 00:18:36,483
But nothing about having to stay.

291
00:18:37,046 --> 00:18:39,017
Nora: Aren't you going to stay?

292
00:18:39,368 --> 00:18:41,626
Lance: If I don't, I lose $10,000.

293
00:18:44,139 --> 00:18:47,544
Nora: I'm going to stay, too. 
$10,000...

294
00:18:48,224 --> 00:18:50,694
Lance: Yes... Do you believe in 
ghosts?

295
00:18:52,169 --> 00:18:53,879
Nora: ( laughs) I don't know.

296
00:18:54,532 --> 00:18:57,171
Lance: Well, I agree with what 
that doc says.

297
00:18:57,171 --> 00:18:58,733
You can spook yourself.

298
00:18:58,733 --> 00:19:01,291
I've done it in planes. Seen things 
that weren't really there.

299
00:19:02,055 --> 00:19:03,876
Or, were they?
( laughing )

300
00:19:05,460 --> 00:19:07,595
Lance: What are you going to do 
with your $10,000?

301
00:19:07,595 --> 00:19:08,904
If we get it.

302
00:19:09,219 --> 00:19:10,843
Nora: What do you mean 
"if we get it?"

303
00:19:10,843 --> 00:19:13,057
Won't he pay us if we stay?

304
00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:15,615
Lance: Sure he will. $10,000 
is no more to him,

305
00:19:15,829 --> 00:19:17,328
than a nickel is to us.

306
00:19:17,741 --> 00:19:20,018
Nora: We were in an 
automobile accident.

307
00:19:20,371 --> 00:19:23,243
Now I'm the only one in the family 
who can make any money.

308
00:19:24,274 --> 00:19:26,663
Lance: Boy, I've never seen 
so many doors.

309
00:19:29,625 --> 00:19:30,995
(door clicks open)

310
00:19:33,588 --> 00:19:34,807
Closet...

(door clicks open)

316
00:20:03,448 --> 00:20:05,322
Nora: Does it go anywhere?

317
00:20:05,764 --> 00:20:07,187

I must have - I must have 
bumped my head.

David: The only way you could bump

- is to run head-on into the wall.

David: You didn't do that, did you?

338

Let's get a bandage on that.

Fredrick: Nora, you said something 
about a ghost.

346
00:22:45,856 --> 00:22:47,504
Nora: There was something.

347
00:22:47,558 --> 00:22:49,256
Fredrick: What did it look like?

348
00:22:49,828 --> 00:22:53,653
Nora: It was wearing a black thing 
that went all the way to the floor.

349
00:22:53,937 --> 00:22:56,523
David: Weren't you a little frightened 
at the time?

350
00:22:56,918 --> 00:22:58,254
Nora: Well, yes.

351
00:22:58,983 --> 00:23:01,751
David: That, Mr. Loren, is hysteria.

352
00:23:02,407 --> 00:23:05,655
Fredrick: Well, then, Doctor, how do you 
explain what happened to Lance?

353
00:23:05,655 --> 00:23:08,061
Was that hysteria, too?

354
00:23:10,228 --> 00:23:12,728
David: You'd better get that checked in 
a day or so.

355
00:23:12,728 --> 00:23:14,249
Lance: Thanks, Doc.

356

Mr. Loren.

Fredrick: You really believe in your pet 
ghosts, don't you Pritchard?

360
00:23:34,394 --> 00:23:36,832
Watson: Before the night's over, you 
will, too.

361
00:23:37,133 --> 00:23:39,070
Fredrick: Would you like a drink, 
Lance?

Lance: No thanks.

Ruth: Mr. Loren, are you really going to 
pay anyone who stays all night?

364

Fredrick: Certainly. $10,000.

Ruth: Will there be much red-tape 
or delay?

366
00:23:58,602 --> 00:23:59,926
Fredrick: In a hurry, dear?

367
00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:02,711
Ruth: Frankly, yes.
(muttering) Or 'frantically'.

Lance: Someone or some thing 
was in here when I came in.

371
00:24:32,087 --> 00:24:33,110
But where?

372
00:24:34,810 --> 00:24:36,904
If the door was locked, 
how did it get out?

373
00:24:37,910 --> 00:24:40,183
What you saw might have 
been a ghost, Nora,

374
00:24:40,183 --> 00:24:42,324
but what was in here with me
was no ghost.

375
00:24:42,580 --> 00:24:44,692
Nora: I don't know. I was so scared.

376
00:24:50,578 --> 00:24:52,381

00:24:54,202 --> 00:24:57,169

Lance: Does that sound different to you?
- Nora: Yes!

Lance: 12 feet.

00:25:25,201 --> 00:25:27,004
Lance: 3... 6.

383
00:25:28,259 --> 00:25:30,096
Lance: I'm going to knock on the 
other wall.

384
00:25:30,096 --> 00:25:32,479
When you hear me, you knock 
on this wall.

385
00:25:35,268 --> 00:25:36,490
( knocking with echoes )

386
00:25:37,072 --> 00:25:38,968

Nora: Oh Lance! I saw it again!

393
00:26:13,536 --> 00:26:15,523
Lance: Where'd it come from?

394
00:26:15,705 --> 00:26:17,659
Nora: From in here!

395
00:26:22,826 --> 00:26:25,687
Lance: Well if it'd ran out of here - 
I'd have seen it.

396
00:26:25,990 --> 00:26:29,276
Nora: Lance, it doesn't run, 
it just floats!

397
00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:32,098
Lance: But why didn't I see it?

398
00:26:33,569 --> 00:26:35,486
Nora: You don't believe me!

399
00:26:35,699 --> 00:26:37,816

400
00:26:57,150 --> 00:26:59,136
Annabelle: I'm Annabelle Loren.

(eerie music)

402
00:27:02,507 --> 00:27:03,955
You must be Miss Manning.

403
00:27:04,578 --> 00:27:08,516
I realize this is a very unusual 
and, I'm afraid, very dull party.

404
00:27:08,827 --> 00:27:10,627
Wouldn't you like to freshen up?

405
00:27:22,146 --> 00:27:23,634
Annabelle: This is your room.

406
00:27:23,964 --> 00:27:25,386
Depressing, isn't it?

407
00:27:26,661 --> 00:27:29,397
Nora: I doubt if 
I'll spend much time here.

408
00:27:29,397 --> 00:27:33,902
Annabelle: It's going to rain. Perfect 
atmosphere for my husbands party.

409
00:27:36,864 --> 00:27:38,320
Why did you come here?

410
00:27:39,011 --> 00:27:40,931
Nora: He said he'd give me $10,000.

411
00:27:41,774 --> 00:27:43,519
Annabelle: Why did he pick you?

412
00:27:43,753 --> 00:27:47,679
Nora: I don't know. My supervisor just 
said I'd been invited.

413
00:27:51,708 --> 00:27:54,039
Annabelle: How long have you
known my husband?

414
00:27:54,308 --> 00:27:56,401
Nora: I just met him tonight.

415
00:27:56,946 --> 00:28:00,013
Annabelle: So... why you?

416
00:28:04,968 --> 00:28:07,452
What were you doing 
wandering around by yourself?

417
00:28:07,911 --> 00:28:14,588
Nora: I was in the cellar with Lance - 
Mr. Schroeder - I just left, that's all.

418
00:28:15,988 --> 00:28:17,529
Annabelle: Don't do it again.

419
00:28:18,486 --> 00:28:21,246
(Annabelle) Don't go anywhere in this 
house by yourself.

420
00:28:22,464 --> 00:28:25,381
Now fix your face and I'll come by 
for you in a few minutes.

421
00:28:25,666 --> 00:28:27,730
Nora: But I -
- Annabelle: You're in danger.

422
00:28:28,574 --> 00:28:29,796
We all are.

423
00:28:30,452 --> 00:28:31,396
Nora: But who?

424
00:28:32,484 --> 00:28:35,119
Annabelle: I hope, for your sake, 
you never find out.

425
00:28:50,437 --> 00:28:52,694
Annabelle: I'm Annabelle Loren. 
Were you looking for something?

426
00:28:52,694 --> 00:28:54,077
Lance: Not exactly.

427
00:28:54,077 --> 00:28:55,082
Annabelle: Are you the doctor?

428
00:28:55,082 --> 00:28:57,573
Lance: No. I'm Lance Schroeder.
- Annabelle: The pilot.

429
00:28:57,573 --> 00:28:58,785
You've hurt yourself.

430
00:28:58,785 --> 00:29:01,064
Lance: Oh, it's just 
a bump on the head.

431
00:29:01,064 --> 00:29:03,787
Which is my room?

432
00:29:03,787 --> 00:29:05,317
Annabelle: I believe this is it.

433
00:29:06,885 --> 00:29:08,085
Lance: Thank you, Mrs. Loren.

434
00:29:09,416 --> 00:29:12,026
Annabelle: Annabelle, Lance.

435
00:29:22,598 --> 00:29:24,470
Annabelle: You were with the young girl 
in the cellar.

436
00:29:24,470 --> 00:29:26,191
Why was she so upset?

437
00:29:26,191 --> 00:29:27,308
Lance: Was she?

438
00:29:27,308 --> 00:29:30,471
Annabelle: And you don't look like 
the type to go around bumping his head.

439
00:29:30,471 --> 00:29:32,131
What really happened, Lance?

440
00:29:32,131 --> 00:29:36,021
Lance: Nora thought she saw a ghost, 
but I didn't see anything.

441
00:29:36,021 --> 00:29:37,960
Annabelle: She was just 
frightened, then?

442
00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:40,480
Lance: And mad at me, I think. 
I kidded her about it.

443
00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:44,841
Annabelle: I wouldn't joke about anything 
else that happens here tonight.

444
00:29:44,841 --> 00:29:47,120
Lance: Now, don't tell me you're taking 
all of this seriously?

445
00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:48,900
Annabelle: Aren't you?

446
00:29:48,900 --> 00:29:51,970
Lance: Well, I'd like to find out 
what hit me.

447
00:29:51,970 --> 00:29:53,278
Annabelle: Lance...

448
00:29:56,388 --> 00:29:58,648
If I need help, may I count on you?

449
00:29:59,898 --> 00:30:01,959
Lance: Yes, sure. I guess so.

450
00:30:03,369 --> 00:30:05,649
Look - what's going on here, anyway?

451
00:30:05,649 --> 00:30:07,829
What's with this party business?

452
00:30:07,829 --> 00:30:09,794
Annabelle: This is no party, 
he's planning something.

453
00:30:09,794 --> 00:30:11,518
Lance: Your husband?

454
00:30:11,518 --> 00:30:13,435
Annabelle: I wish I knew what it was.

455
00:30:13,435 --> 00:30:16,303
Lance: It must be pretty big, 
if he's going to lay out $50,000.

456
00:30:16,303 --> 00:30:18,220
Annabelle: Money doesn't mean anything.

457
00:30:18,220 --> 00:30:21,842
He has a reason for getting us all 
up here to this dreadful old house.

458
00:30:22,092 --> 00:30:24,501
Lance: Well, what for? He doesn't 
even know us.

459
00:30:25,331 --> 00:30:27,189
Annabelle: Maybe that's exactly 
why you're here?

460
00:30:27,969 --> 00:30:30,740
Lance (scoffs): What can he get away with?

461
00:30:30,740 --> 00:30:34,341
Annabelle: Oh, he thinks that big money 
like his can get away with anything.

462
00:30:34,341 --> 00:30:36,281
You know, of course, that 
I'm his fourth wife.

463
00:30:37,461 --> 00:30:39,340
The first simply disappeared...

464
00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:41,080
The other two died.

465
00:30:42,030 --> 00:30:44,740
Lance, I don't want to join them.

466
00:30:47,300 --> 00:30:48,803
Lance: You mean, he, uh -

467
00:30:48,803 --> 00:30:51,170
Annabelle: Oh, his doctors said 
they died of heart attacks.

468
00:30:51,900 --> 00:30:55,302
Two girls, in their twenties.

469
00:30:56,382 --> 00:30:58,122
Lance: Well, what can he do?

470
00:30:58,582 --> 00:31:00,688
Annabelle: My husband is sometimes 
insane with jealousy.

471
00:31:00,688 --> 00:31:03,880
Nothing matters to him then. 
Please be careful.

472
00:31:04,430 --> 00:31:06,519
Lance: Would he hurt you?

473
00:31:08,479 --> 00:31:11,090
Annabelle: He would kill me 
if he could.

474
00:31:16,350 --> 00:31:18,660
(door shuts)

475
00:31:19,300 --> 00:31:21,610
(spooky music)

476
00:31:32,570 --> 00:31:34,350
Fredrick: Annabelle, you're missing 
all the fun.

477
00:31:34,350 --> 00:31:35,280
(door shuts firmly)

478
00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:37,970
Nora Manning was almost killed 
by a falling chandelier.

479
00:31:37,970 --> 00:31:39,740
The pilot bashed his head in.

480
00:31:39,740 --> 00:31:41,462
Annabelle: Is he badly hurt?

481
00:31:41,462 --> 00:31:44,890
Fredrick: The saturnine psychiatrist 
bandaged him up.

482
00:31:44,890 --> 00:31:47,191
Don't you want to go 
and console him?

483
00:31:47,191 --> 00:31:51,502
As you do, most men, 
in your fashion.

484
00:31:51,502 --> 00:31:53,491
Annabelle: You're so clever, Fredrick.

485
00:31:53,491 --> 00:31:56,211
Fredrick: I lie awake nights, 
wondering why I married you.

486
00:31:56,211 --> 00:31:58,279
It was rather a mistake.

487
00:31:58,279 --> 00:32:00,093
Annabelle: You didn't marry me, dear.
I married you.

488
00:32:00,093 --> 00:32:03,131
Unpleasant, but no mistake.

489
00:32:03,131 --> 00:32:05,005
Fredrick: Hurry up!

490
00:32:05,005 --> 00:32:07,731
Annabelle: Fredrick, for the last time, 
I'm not going to your party.

491
00:32:07,731 --> 00:32:10,770
Fredrick: And, for the last time, 
it's not my party -

492
00:32:10,770 --> 00:32:12,850
- but yours.

493
00:32:12,850 --> 00:32:14,540
And you are going.

494
00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:17,421
Annabelle: I am not.

495
00:32:17,421 --> 00:32:19,461
Fredrick: Are you ready? 
- Annabelle: ... no ...

496
00:32:20,511 --> 00:32:23,951
Fredrick (forceful): Are you ready, dear?
- Annabelle: ... Yes, damn you!

497
00:32:24,911 --> 00:32:27,361
Fredrick: Would you adore me as much, 
if I were poor?

498
00:32:27,361 --> 00:32:31,360
(laughs) Or do you want to be 
as a lovely widow?

499
00:32:33,060 --> 00:32:35,912
It's almost time to lock up the house.

500
00:32:35,912 --> 00:32:38,270
And then your party will really begin.

501
00:32:39,290 --> 00:32:41,212
I wonder how it will end.

502
00:32:48,247 --> 00:32:48,997
(door shuts)

503
00:32:56,912 --> 00:32:58,539
( knocking )

504
00:33:00,289 --> 00:33:02,053
Fredrick: It's close to midnight, Lance.

505
00:33:03,401 --> 00:33:05,521
Lance: Ok. I'll be down in a minute.

506
00:33:09,658 --> 00:33:12,420
( knocks )

507
00:33:12,420 --> 00:33:13,209
(Nora) Who is it?

508
00:33:13,209 --> 00:33:15,629
Fredrick: Your host, my dear.

509
00:33:15,629 --> 00:33:18,199
Fredrick: It's almost midnight, Nora.

510
00:33:18,199 --> 00:33:20,621
We're all going to get together 
down in the living room.

511
00:33:20,621 --> 00:33:32,622
Nora: All right, Mr. Loren.
I'll be right down.

512
00:33:32,622 --> 00:33:36,699
( recoils in disgust )

513
00:33:36,699 --> 00:34:22,572
( gasping )

514
00:34:22,572 --> 00:34:23,311
Jonas: Come with us.

515
00:34:23,311 --> 00:34:25,240
Come with us, before he kills you!

516
00:34:25,240 --> 00:34:38,099
( screams )

517
00:34:38,099 --> 00:34:46,223
Lance: Where's Nora? Miss Manning?

518
00:34:46,223 --> 00:34:48,212
Nora: I don't want to stay here!

519
00:34:48,212 --> 00:34:51,328
Fredrick: Nora, what happened?

520
00:34:51,328 --> 00:35:00,381
( creaking )

521
00:35:00,381 --> 00:35:03,410
Fredrick: That's Jonas Slydes and his wife.

522
00:35:03,410 --> 00:35:06,110
They've been caretakers here for years.

523
00:35:06,110 --> 00:35:08,000
She's blind, you know.

524
00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:12,970
Nora: I'm not going to stay here!

525
00:35:12,970 --> 00:35:17,009
Fredrick: Doctor, it looks like we have 
a real case of hysteria on our hands.

526
00:35:17,009 --> 00:35:20,431
David: I think she's just a little upset, 
not hysterical.

527
00:35:20,431 --> 00:35:27,090
( door opening )

528
00:35:27,090 --> 00:35:31,671
Annabelle: Good evening.

529
00:35:31,671 --> 00:35:34,230
Fredrick: Hello, my dear.

530
00:35:34,230 --> 00:35:38,199
This is my wife.
These are our guests...

531
00:35:38,199 --> 00:35:39,661
(Fredrick) Ruth Bridgers,

532
00:35:39,661 --> 00:35:41,010
(Fredrick) Doctor Trent,

533
00:35:41,010 --> 00:35:42,650
(Fredrick) You know Watson Pritchard, 
of course,

534
00:35:42,650 --> 00:35:43,572
(Fredrick) Nora Manning,

535
00:35:43,572 --> 00:35:53,079
(Fredrick) and this is Lance Schroeder.

536
00:35:53,079 --> 00:35:55,255
Nora (whispering): Get me out of here!

537
00:35:55,255 --> 00:35:56,450
Lance (whispering): What about the $10,000?

538
00:35:56,450 --> 00:35:58,812
Nora (whispering): I don't care! 
He wants to kill me!

539
00:35:58,812 --> 00:36:00,520
Lance (whispering): Who wants to kill you?

540
00:36:00,520 --> 00:36:03,308
Nora (whispering): Mister Loren.

541
00:36:03,308 --> 00:36:05,158
Fredrick: May I have your attention, please?

542
00:36:05,158 --> 00:36:06,609
Fredrick: I think you all remember

543
00:36:06,609 --> 00:36:09,669
(Fredrick) the bargain we made about 
staying all night?

544
00:36:09,669 --> 00:36:11,991
Fredrick: $10,000 a piece.

545
00:36:11,991 --> 00:36:17,999
If any of you don't survive, $50,000 
will be divided amongst the rest of you.

546
00:36:17,999 --> 00:36:24,022
Fredrick: If I should die...

547
00:36:24,022 --> 00:36:26,311
Fredrick: ...you will be paid 
by my estate.

548
00:36:26,311 --> 00:36:28,860
Fredrick: When the door is locked 
from the outside by the caretakers,

549
00:36:28,860 --> 00:36:31,849
we'll all be forced to stay in this house 
until morning.

550
00:36:31,849 --> 00:36:35,781
If any of you decide not to stay, 
you must leave with the caretakers now.

551
00:36:35,781 --> 00:36:39,190
Fredrick: You won't have a chance 
to change your minds later.

552
00:36:39,190 --> 00:36:41,309
Because there'll be no way to get out.

553
00:36:41,309 --> 00:36:42,858
- Nora: I don't want to stay!
- Lance: Wait!

554
00:36:42,858 --> 00:36:50,028
( wind whistles, chandelier clatters )

555
00:36:50,028 --> 00:37:07,399
( loud bang )

556
00:37:07,399 --> 00:37:09,540
Fredrick: It isn't midnight, yet! 
Who told them they could leave?

557
00:37:09,540 --> 00:37:10,950
Watson: They never leave before midnight.

558
00:37:10,950 --> 00:37:13,751
Fredrick: They've gone, now.

559
00:37:13,751 --> 00:37:16,459
Fredrick: I was going to ask you 
whether you wanted to stay or not,

560
00:37:16,459 --> 00:37:19,360
but it seems the caretakers 
have made the decision for you.

561
00:37:19,360 --> 00:37:22,150
Fredrick: We're all locked in, now.

562
00:37:22,150 --> 00:37:23,600
Nora: But I don't want to stay!

563
00:37:23,600 --> 00:37:26,699
Fredrick: I'm sorry, my dear.
But it's too late, now.

564
00:37:26,699 --> 00:37:30,629
Annabelle: Darling, haven't you had enough 
of this silly game?

565
00:37:30,629 --> 00:37:34,029
Get some cars up here for these people, 
and let them go home.

566
00:37:34,029 --> 00:37:37,798
Annabelle: But pay them, first.

567
00:37:37,798 --> 00:37:42,758
Fredrick: This is your party, remember?

568
00:37:42,758 --> 00:37:46,420
Fredrick: In spite of my wife's faith 
in my ability to do the impossible,

569
00:37:46,420 --> 00:37:50,839
we will all have to stay in this house 
until eight o'clock in the morning.

570
00:37:50,839 --> 00:37:54,181
Fredrick: But, we have some party favors 
for you...

571
00:37:54,181 --> 00:38:00,830
In these little coffins.

572
00:38:00,830 --> 00:38:03,359
(Fredrick) This is my wife's idea.

573
00:38:03,359 --> 00:38:05,798
(Fredrick) I must say, I think it's rather 
dangerous.

574
00:38:05,798 --> 00:38:08,279
Fredrick: I suppose you all know 
how to use one of these things.

575
00:38:08,279 --> 00:38:10,059
Fredrick: In case you don't,

576
00:38:10,059 --> 00:38:12,940
you just press down on this lever
with your thumb...

577
00:38:12,940 --> 00:38:14,857
And then pull the trigger.

578
00:38:14,857 --> 00:38:18,800
( bang )

579
00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:22,899
Fredrick: You see? They're loaded.

580
00:38:22,899 --> 00:38:24,312
Watson: These are no good 
against the dead -

581
00:38:24,312 --> 00:38:28,039
- only the living.

582
00:38:28,039 --> 00:38:31,401
Fredrick: Doctor?

583
00:38:31,401 --> 00:38:35,858
Fredrick: Lance?

584
00:38:35,858 --> 00:38:39,110
Fredrick: Nora?

585
00:38:39,110 --> 00:38:44,721
Lance: Go ahead. Take it.

586
00:38:44,721 --> 00:38:51,099
Fredrick: Miss Bridgers?

587
00:38:51,099 --> 00:38:52,686
Fredrick: And here's yours, dear.

588
00:38:52,686 --> 00:38:53,960
Annabelle: I don't need it.

589
00:38:53,960 --> 00:38:55,811
Fredrick: It was your idea.

590
00:38:55,811 --> 00:39:02,481
Who knows, you may want to use it 
on me before this night is over.

591
00:39:02,481 --> 00:39:04,269
Watson: Throw these guns away.
They won't do you any good.

592
00:39:04,269 --> 00:39:08,638
David: I agree with Pritchard, 
although not for the same reason.

593
00:39:14,601 --> 00:39:17,751
Annabelle: Dr. Trent, don't you approve 
of our little party favors?

594
00:39:17,751 --> 00:39:19,140
David: Suppose Nora had a gun,

595
00:39:19,140 --> 00:39:21,480
when she mistook the blind woman 
for a ghost?

596
00:39:23,411 --> 00:39:26,091
Ruth: I don't think anyone else 
is going to walk around in total darkness.

597
00:39:26,091 --> 00:39:28,341
Annabelle: Oh I'm sure we're not going to 
go running around the house

598
00:39:28,341 --> 00:39:30,682
shooting each other, aren't you?

599
00:39:30,682 --> 00:39:39,623
David: Who knows? Fear makes people 
do amazing things.

600
00:39:39,623 --> 00:39:41,472
Nora: Mister Pritchard...

601
00:39:41,472 --> 00:39:46,000
Nora: You said your sister-in-law killed 
a man and a woman here and cut them up?

602
00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:50,081
You said they found hands and feet, but 
they never found any heads?!

603
00:39:50,081 --> 00:39:52,501
Would you like to see one of those heads?!

604
00:39:52,501 --> 00:39:54,920
Nora: Would you all like to see 
one of those heads?!

605
00:39:54,920 --> 00:40:05,798
Just follow me!

606
00:40:05,798 --> 00:40:24,840
Annabelle: Darling, I really don't 
need this.

607
00:40:24,840 --> 00:40:41,281
Nora: Just, go look in my 
suitcase. Go look!

608
00:40:41,281 --> 00:40:43,002
Nora: But it was in there!

609
00:40:43,002 --> 00:40:44,390
(Nora) A woman's head!

610
00:40:44,390 --> 00:40:47,281
David: Nora, I think you're 
a little upset.

611
00:40:47,281 --> 00:40:48,901
Would you care for a sedative?

612
00:40:48,901 --> 00:40:50,081
Nora: Get out!

613
00:40:50,081 --> 00:40:51,442
Get out, all of you!

614
00:40:51,442 --> 00:40:53,940
All of you, get out of here 
and leave me alone!

615
00:40:53,940 --> 00:40:56,460
Just get out of here!

616
00:40:56,460 --> 00:41:00,740
( crying )

617
00:41:00,740 --> 00:41:03,050
Fredrick: Do you think it's all right 
to leave her by herself, Doctor?

618
00:41:03,050 --> 00:41:05,060
David: I wish she'd taken the sedative.

619
00:41:05,060 --> 00:41:07,000
Ruth: What do you suppose 
she thought she saw?

620
00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:08,840
Watson: They're closing in on her.

621
00:41:08,840 --> 00:41:10,421
Lance: Look, Doc, I think somebody 
ought to stay with her.

622
00:41:10,421 --> 00:41:12,498
Watson: There could be a million people 
around her -

623
00:41:12,498 --> 00:41:17,391
- if they wanted her, they'd get her.

624
00:41:17,391 --> 00:41:18,472
Annabelle: What if he's right?

625
00:41:18,472 --> 00:41:20,540
Fredrick: He's too drunk to know 
what he's talking about.

626
00:41:20,540 --> 00:41:22,481
Annabelle: I wonder...

627
00:41:22,481 --> 00:41:28,668
Annabelle: I'll join you in a minute.

628
00:41:28,668 --> 00:41:33,130
Lance: Do you think it would do any good 
if you went in and talked to her?

629
00:41:33,130 --> 00:41:37,033
Ruth: Do you think there really was a 
head in her suitcase?

630
00:41:37,033 --> 00:41:38,322
Lance: I don't know...

631
00:41:38,322 --> 00:41:40,942
Ruth: A thing like that would put me 
right over the edge.

632
00:41:40,942 --> 00:41:45,319
Lance: Would you, sort of, stay up here? 
In case she needs help?

633
00:41:45,319 --> 00:41:48,131
Ruth: All right. I'll be in my room.

634
00:41:48,131 --> 00:42:01,579
Lance: Thanks.

635
00:42:01,579 --> 00:42:04,901
David: Are you sure there are only seven 
people in this house?

636
00:42:04,901 --> 00:42:07,802
Fredrick: Positive... 
Except for the ghosts.

637
00:42:07,802 --> 00:42:09,960
David: I don't believe in ghosts.

638
00:42:09,960 --> 00:42:12,421
Nor in frightening women.

639
00:42:12,421 --> 00:42:15,791
In Nora's case, it's gone far enough.
Perhaps, too far.

640
00:42:15,791 --> 00:42:18,686
Fredrick: What do you suggest 
we do about it, doctor?

641
00:42:18,686 --> 00:42:20,612
David (stern): Don't frighten her 
any more.

but I went by and nobody saw me.

680
00:46:31,520 --> 00:46:33,969
Lance: Mrs. Loren is dead.

681
00:46:33,969 --> 00:46:40,071
Nora: But how?

682
00:46:40,071 --> 00:46:42,516
Lance: Loren said she committed suicide.

683
00:46:42,516 --> 00:46:44,153
(Lance) But I think somebody killed her.

684
00:46:44,153 --> 00:46:50,052
Nora: Him?

685
00:46:50,052 --> 00:46:58,537
( door locking )

686
00:46:58,537 --> 00:47:22,952
( knocking at door )

687
00:47:22,952 --> 00:47:25,552
David: I'm sure you've come to the same 
conclusion I have.

688
00:47:25,552 --> 00:47:27,061
Lance: Yeah, I think so.

689
00:47:27,061 --> 00:47:30,091
David: Let's all have a meeting to 
discuss what to do.

690
00:47:30,091 --> 00:47:31,282
The living room?

691
00:47:31,282 --> 00:47:47,331
Lance: Ok. In a minute.

692
00:47:47,331 --> 00:47:49,172
Lance: I've got to go downstairs.

693
00:47:49,172 --> 00:47:52,540
Now, you lock yourself in here and 
don't let anybody know you're here.

694
00:47:52,540 --> 00:47:54,552
If he thinks you're dead, 
he won't come here.

695
00:47:54,552 --> 00:47:57,471
I'll get back as soon as I can.

696
00:47:57,471 --> 00:48:02,862
You'll be all right.

697
00:48:02,862 --> 00:48:57,889
Lance: If you have to, you use it.

698
00:48:57,889 --> 00:49:01,062
Fredrick: So beautiful.

699
00:49:01,062 --> 00:49:03,990
So greedy.

700
00:49:03,990 --> 00:49:11,140
(Fredrick) So cold.

701
00:49:11,140 --> 00:49:12,251
Fredrick: What are you doing in here?

702
00:49:12,251 --> 00:49:13,929
Watson: Wait! Don't! Wait!

703
00:49:13,929 --> 00:49:16,761
Fredrick: What do you mean, 
coming in here?

704
00:49:16,761 --> 00:49:18,699
Watson: I didn't want them to 
take her away.

705
00:49:18,699 --> 00:49:19,529
Fredrick: You're drunk!

706
00:49:19,529 --> 00:49:21,039
Watson: They will if you don't watch her!


707
00:49:21,039 --> 00:49:22,221
Fredrick: All right, 
out with it, Pritchard -

708
00:49:22,221 --> 00:49:23,341
- why did you come into this room?

709
00:49:23,341 --> 00:49:24,400
Watson: I'm the only one who understands!

710
00:49:24,400 --> 00:49:25,329
Fredrick: Understands what?

711
00:49:25,329 --> 00:49:28,659
Watson: Your wife isn't there any more.

712
00:49:28,659 --> 00:49:30,571
She's already joined them!

713
00:49:30,571 --> 00:49:33,411
Fredrick: I've had enough of your 
spook talk.

714
00:49:33,411 --> 00:50:10,802
Get out, you sot, and don't come back 
into this room again!

715
00:50:10,802 --> 00:50:14,310
Watson: Where's whats-her-name?
Nora?

716
00:50:14,310 --> 00:50:18,525
David: I didn't disturb her, 
since I didn't think this concerns her.

717
00:50:18,525 --> 00:50:21,000
Fredrick: You're right.

718
00:50:21,000 --> 00:50:26,151
David: Mr. Loren, isn't there some way 
we can get out of this house now?

719
00:50:26,151 --> 00:50:28,733
Watson: No... none at all.

720
00:50:28,733 --> 00:50:30,461
Lance: We could try breaking out.

721
00:50:30,461 --> 00:50:33,839
(Watson) The only door to the outside 
is made of steel.

722
00:50:33,839 --> 00:50:37,574
Watson: The bars of the windows 
are set in solid stone.

723
00:50:37,574 --> 00:50:41,662
We gotta stay.

724
00:50:41,662 --> 00:50:46,542
David: I'm not afraid of your ghosts, 
Pritchard.

725
00:50:46,542 --> 00:50:49,819
David: But I am afraid.

726
00:50:49,819 --> 00:50:51,151
David: When we came here a few hours ago,

727
00:50:51,151 --> 00:50:54,712
the only thing we had in common 
was the $10,000 we'd get.

728
00:50:54,712 --> 00:50:57,630
David: Now, however, we share 
something else -

729
00:50:57,630 --> 00:51:00,381
- the death of Mrs. Loren.

730
00:51:00,381 --> 00:51:06,981
David: So far, tonight, one of us was 
almost killed by a falling chandelier.

731
00:51:06,981 --> 00:51:09,892
David: One of us was mysteriously slugged.

732
00:51:09,892 --> 00:51:14,380
(David) One of us has been driven to 
the brink of absolute hysteria.

733
00:51:14,380 --> 00:51:17,549
(David) And one of us is dead.

734
00:51:17,549 --> 00:51:21,811
David: Were these accidents?
Suicide?

735
00:51:21,811 --> 00:51:23,852
David: And we must stay here 
for six more hours!

736
00:51:23,852 --> 00:51:31,132
Watson: Six hours? Six of us...
Time enough.

737
00:51:31,132 --> 00:51:32,951
David: Who'll be next?

738
00:51:32,951 --> 00:51:35,461
(David) How will it happen?

739
00:51:35,461 --> 00:51:38,200
Fredrick: Let me as you a question, 
Doctor.

740
00:51:38,200 --> 00:51:41,064
Fredrick: You were the first one 
to see my wife there.

741
00:51:41,064 --> 00:51:44,121
(Fredrick) Did you also see anything that 
she could've climbed up on,

742
00:51:44,121 --> 00:51:45,451
(Fredrick) and then jumped?

743
00:51:45,451 --> 00:51:47,201
David: No.

744
00:51:47,201 --> 00:51:49,389
Fredrick: Did any of you?

745
00:51:49,389 --> 00:51:54,239
Fredrick: There was nothing.

746
00:51:54,239 --> 00:51:57,622
How, then, did she get up there, so high?

747
00:51:57,622 --> 00:51:59,891
David: Exactly, Mr. Loren. How?

748
00:51:59,891 --> 00:52:01,511
She couldn't have pulled herself up there.

749
00:52:01,511 --> 00:52:04,400
She couldn't have dropped 
from the ceiling.

750
00:52:04,400 --> 00:52:06,192
Do you think your wife killed herself?

751
00:52:06,192 --> 00:52:10,680
Fredrick: No. She was murdered.

752
00:52:10,680 --> 00:52:16,881
By one of you.

753
00:52:16,881 --> 00:52:21,000
David: Or, you, Mr. Loren.

754
00:52:21,000 --> 00:52:24,060
David: To deliberately kill someone, 
you must have a reason.

755
00:52:24,060 --> 00:52:26,250
Lance: We were all strangers to your wife.

756
00:52:26,250 --> 00:52:30,019
(Lance) Only you had a motive for murder.

757
00:52:30,019 --> 00:52:33,762
Fredrick: What husband hasn't, at some 
time, wanted to kill his wife?

758
00:52:33,762 --> 00:52:35,710
What husband hasn't had a thousand 
opportunities

759
00:52:35,710 --> 00:52:37,030
to do it in such a way

760
00:52:37,030 --> 00:52:39,019
that he'd never be suspected?

761
00:52:39,019 --> 00:52:43,001
I'm not such a fool to hang my wife from 
the ceiling by a rope.

762
00:52:43,001 --> 00:52:44,820
David: The fact remains that you, 
or one of us,

763
00:52:44,820 --> 00:52:46,791
murdered Mrs. Loren.

764
00:52:46,791 --> 00:52:48,771
And that's a matter for the police.

765
00:52:48,771 --> 00:52:50,621
Lance: So how do we get the police.

766
00:52:50,621 --> 00:52:53,949
David: That's my point.
We can't until morning.

767
00:52:53,949 --> 00:52:56,431
David: What began as a silly party, 
given by an eccentric,

768
00:52:56,431 --> 00:52:58,919
has now involved us all in murder.

769
00:52:58,919 --> 00:53:00,870
Lance: For once, Pritchard may be right.

770
00:53:00,870 --> 00:53:03,461
If another murder's in the works, 
let's stop it now.

771
00:53:03,461 --> 00:53:05,300
Ruth: Another murder?

772
00:53:05,300 --> 00:53:11,751
Lance: Why not. 
Maybe one of us saw too much.

773
00:53:11,751 --> 00:53:15,089
David: Why should, a millionaire want to 
give each of us $10,000

774
00:53:15,089 --> 00:53:16,149
to spend one night in a gloomy old house?

775
00:53:16,149 --> 00:53:20,191
To see some ghosts? To have a party?

776
00:53:20,191 --> 00:53:21,199
David: No!

777
00:53:21,199 --> 00:53:22,841
Fredrick: Have you finished trying me, 
Doctor?

778
00:53:22,841 --> 00:53:24,812
And is the verdict "guilty of murder"?

779
00:53:24,812 --> 00:53:26,451
Lance: This isn't getting us anywhere.

780
00:53:26,451 --> 00:53:29,000
Somebody killed Mrs. Loren, 
we know that.

781
00:53:29,000 --> 00:53:30,913
One of us is guilty, 
and the rest of us are innocent.

782
00:53:30,913 --> 00:53:33,581
Lance: Now, what we have to do 
for the next six hours

783
00:53:33,581 --> 00:53:37,152
is protect ourselves.
From each other.

784
00:53:37,152 --> 00:53:40,070
Ruth: You really think -
Lance: I don't think anything.

785
00:53:40,070 --> 00:53:42,011
I just know that I'm going to my room.

786
00:53:42,011 --> 00:53:45,991
And if anybody comes in, I'll shoot him.
Or her.

787
00:53:45,991 --> 00:53:48,411
David: And if we all stay in our rooms, 
we'll be safe.

788
00:53:48,411 --> 00:53:51,622
Because the innocent will have 
no reason to leave his room.

789
00:53:51,622 --> 00:53:54,482
And the guilty will admit his guilt 
if he or she does.

790
00:53:54,482 --> 00:53:56,073
Lance: And we all have guns.

791
00:53:56,073 --> 00:53:58,299
Fredrick: We're all agreed?

792
00:53:58,299 --> 00:54:03,651
Ruth: I wish this night were over.

793
00:54:03,651 --> 00:54:09,241
Watson: Rooms. Guns. I tell you, 
it doesn't make any difference.

794
00:54:09,241 --> 00:54:42,841
They aren't through with us yet.

795
00:54:42,841 --> 00:54:51,700

Who would suspect 
that we planned it that way?

895
01:05:39,161 --> 01:05:40,502
That we drove her to it?

897
01:05:42,123 --> 01:05:43,853
David: Just a ghost-party gag.

898
01:05:43,853 --> 01:05:46,061
We'll claim it was a dummy, 
since I'm the only one that touched you.

Annabelle: And the caretakers?

what they were really doing.

She's not stupid, you know.
