Susan's in the house, John.

- Pulse?

- Nothing.

John, stop it. Don't. Let go.

No, you cannot tell me that that's Susan!

That is not Susan. I just left Susan.

She's in the house.

And she's changing.

She's all wet and she's changing.

You cannot tell me that that is Susan.

One, two...

She's in the house, John.

- Nancy.

- She's in the house!

Come on, I'll show you.

...you got anything?

No pulse. Continue CPR.

Susan, I want you to come out of here.

Do you hear me?

I want you... Susan?

Susan.

Why are you hiding from me? Susan?

I know you're here.

Susan!

Susan, where are you?

- Susan.

- Nancy.

Why are you hiding from me?

- Come out here at once!

- Nancy, for God's sake!

- Susan, where are you?

- Nancy, will you stop this?

- She's not in here!

- I know she's here.

- I saw her!

- Will you stop it?

Don't you understand?

Why won't you let me be with her?

- She's not here, darling.

- I want to be with her.

She's not in here anymore.

- She's gone.

- Leave me alone!

You don't care where she is.

I'm going up to her room to wait for her.

Susan!

What happened?

It's Susan. She wants to show us she's here.

This is her favorite blouse.

We got it for her birthday last year.

Remember, John?

I think it's the colors.

I was thinking, this year maybe I'd...

get her a cashmere sweater.

She needs sweaters.

You have to try to grasp what's happened.

- What you say has happened.

- No, Nancy.

You're fantasizing. None of this is real.

- You must come to terms with that.

- You're fantasizing.

What I saw in this house

with my own eyes, now, that is real.

What you saw is fantasy.

Fantasy is Susan drowned.

Is what you believe more certain

and more real than what I believe?

Who's to say?

You?

She wouldn't even go to the funeral.

I don't know what to do.

Nancy needs psychiatric help.

I don't know how to handle it.

She won't see a doctor.

She won't even leave the house.

I'm worried sick about her.

I thought maybe you'd...

have a suggestion.

There's always the possibility

that she doesn't need any help.

I don't follow you.

Well, what if she really did see something?

Not Susan, perhaps, but something.

What do you mean?

If you'll go along with me,

I'd like to try something.

It could be very helpful to you, to me...

and to Nancy.

What have you got in mind, Elliot?

The scientific investigation of the house

for psychic phenomenon.

I've got a trained team

and all the equipment.

We've investigated houses

a lot less qualified than yours.

What would be the point, Elliot?

Well, the chances are

we'd come up with nothing.

If we do, that might make it a lot easier

for you to reason with Nancy...

given the support of our study.

Possibly, but I doubt it.

And on the other hand...

if we do turn up something...

I mean, if there is some indication,

no matter how ephemeral...

that Nancy was right...

then we might be saving her sanity.

I'll tell you something, Elliot.

After everything that's happened...

I don't know what the hell to believe.

Over here.

Bring it right over here.

There's more stuff in my car.

Okay, good. Yeah.

Joyce's job is to make sure

that all the input...

coming into the main computer

gets properly recorded.

She can also punch up

any of these images...

or any computer data that I might need

onto the monitors over here.

Just watch those cables

as you're coming out.

See, this is where I'll be.

Now, that is an ultrasonic sensor...

which will register sound frequencies

undetectable to the human ear.

This image is from a thermal camera.

Dave, could you turn the camera

this way, please?

You see?

What it's doing is translating

temperature fluctuations...

into a color-coded visual pattern.

Elliot, would you check

the ultrasonic graph?

- Something funny is happening.

- Oh, yeah.

Thanks, Dave.

Could you punch up the video from the attic

onto the big monitor?

You see?

I see the problem here. We just have

far too much activity on this graph.

So...

what we want eventually is a straight line

for the room tone.

The variable is much too active.

Just roll off some of the highs, please.

- Is this all right?

- Very gradually.

Okay. Now, some of the lows.

- Got it.

- All right. Just keep doing that tracking...

Over here. Put it up higher.

There we go. Hold it right there.

We've got the entire hall to cover.

What's happening?

You never believed in this house, John.

Joyce, give me the attic down here, please.

- Stand by.

- What is it? What's happening?

I'm hearing something. I can't make it out.

Try to move in closer.

Put it on the speakers.

Turn it up all the way.

Wow!

- I'm going up there, Elliot.

- No, let it happen.

Mother?

Mother. I need you.

Please, Mother.

Come with me. We'll be together.

Susan.

Come with me, Mother.

What is it? What's it doing to her?

There's activity in the basement.

Something's happening at the well.

Oh, my God. It's using Susan.

The well. The force from the well.

It killed Susan

and now it's using her to get Nancy.

I'm not gonna let that happen.

Look, John, don't.

Listen, we've got to save Susan, too.

- We can release her. I think there's a way.

- You're crazy, Elliot.

No, listen to me. You've got to believe me.

Just follow them to the well.

Don't try to stop them.

Just follow them.

Susan.

Hold her, John. Don't let her get any closer.

- John, that's Susan. Let me go.

- We've got to bring out the source.

We got to force it out. I've got to confront it.

Susan!

- Darling, you can't.

- No, it's Susan.

Come out.

- Why won't you let me go to her?

- You're insane!

Oh, God. Elliot.

Elliot!

Susan, get out! Save yourself!

Susan.

Turn around. We've got to get out of here.

- Where's Dr. West?

- Get out! Everybody get out of the house!

Help!

Come on!
