The mind is like a labyrinth...

Where anyone can be lost.

ATROCIOUS:

Quiet, quiet, quiet!

Quiet, quiet.

WARNING FEDERAL:

DEPARTMENT OF POLICE

Our friend David kindly

lent us his camera.

- How long do the batteries run?

- For 3 to 4 hours.

Well, jeez!

Caramba!

Give me that.

I don't want my dad

to take it again.

Hello, I'm Cristian.

This is my sister July

and this is my friend David.

As you know,

we investigate urban legends.

But this time, we decided...

We had no choice.

Our parents forced us

to spend the holy week...

in a house

we have in Sitges.

This is the photo of the house.

It's been abandoned for 10 years.

It will be very boring

As we can not do

The story of Girl Curve...

I've been investigating an interesting

legend in Sitges El Garraf.

This legend says

that on October 2, 1940...

a girl in red dress got

lost in the woods El Garraf.

And the legend says that if you get

lost in Garraf woods at night...

the girl appears and

shows you the way out.

Go home, man.

- What is the name of the girl.

- Her name is Melinda.

When does the story

get scary?

This guy is an idiot.

Now we can not use it.

- No.

- Wow...

You think it's normal?

No? It is not normal?

This was the last time.

Is that clear?

- Are you sure?

- July!

DAY 1

Daddy is taking.

Robin?

All right there, buddy?

Let's hear

good music.

- Cristian, lower it.

- Okay.

Tasty, no?

Already I can smell the sea.

You are worthless.

And you're an idiot.

Only three curves.

- There it is.

- Finally.

Thank God, were here!

We arrived, Robin, arrived.

Come on.

I'll take it.

It is hard to open the door.

What do you think?

It has a fireplace.

Now I remember.

Yes, this is the kitchen.

The medieval era.

- You like it?

- Not bad.

I will climb.

Caramba!

And that?

- Photo by God-knows-who.

- This is your real grandfather.

- Come on.

- Suba.

This is kind of gloomy.

Watch your head.

Here is where we slept.

- See this?

- This design is horrible.

Your girl.

Joseph, let's see

much you've grown.

Come here.

Stay here.

He is taller than I was

at 6 years old.

That's what I said.

What?

It's scary.

This is also our own?

I do not know.

My turn?

- The sandwiches.

- Cristian, do not put there.

Sorry. Careful,

I'm going through.

Thank you.

Dad?

- Say.

- Where are my old toys?

The toys are...

in the basement.

- It's the left door in the kitchen?

- Yes, that is.

- July.

- Yes, wait.

And who has the key?

Carlos.

Who is that?

A friend of mine.

He packed the whole house.

- Okay, Cristian tomorrow.

- Do not get it.

Cristian, take the dog outside.

I bet her boyfriend elf

would love this house.

No, but seriously.

Bring David's camera tomorrow.

- Why?

- To shoot the gate.

Bring it.

- Right?

- Yes

I did not bring my blue bag?

I think it's there.

Good night, mum.

31 MARCH 2010

DAY 2

You talking to me?

Because I am the only one here.

You're dead.

It's dead, Tarantino.

Look at the girl

looking in the mirror!

- Got the camera?

- Yes

Let's start shooting.

What is this?

I feel dizzy.

July! July!

- Where are you going?

- Here on the side.

- Do not get lost.

- Stay calm.

Wait.

It will break it.

This is a maze.

- Pretty cool, huh?

- Incredible.

Hey! Where are you going?

Do not follow me. Go there.

- Good luck.

- Thank you.

This should be scary at night.

My goodness!

What a mess.

Please...

My goodness! How is this.

I bet she's lost.

July!

July! How do I find it?

July, where are you?

Not here either.

Dammit!

Cristian! Cristian!

Drugs. Cristian!

You idiot!

Come! Cristian!

Dammit! Dammit!

How did I get this bamboo?

This skyscraper.

Drugs. Does not

to come by.

How this drug scratch!

- This is tricky.

- Cristian...

Damn, girl.

- What are you doing?

- Are you lost, right?

What a mess.

Let's do something.

Let us together.

- Come on.

- In front of you.

Drug branches.

- Who is it?

- How boring. It's Mom.

Yes, mother?

We're not lost.

Send her off.

We are filming

and we are not lost, right?

We're going. Goodbye.

- Come on.

- What a pain in the ass!

- Check this out.

- What?

- It looks like a kiosk.

- It's a dome.

A kiosk with a dome.

It has an altar as well.

You could marry her boyfriend there.

July, do you accept elf

as your lawful husband?

Yes, I agree.

Elf,

accepted July as his wife?

"Yes, I accept. "

You can kiss her leg...

and live happily ever after.

Father, the maze is huge.

His mother knew him well

as a child.

Did not know that.

I do not want to stay

walking around.

I'll shoot?

Trees and flowers?

I said I do not want you there.

Right. Calm down. If you want

to we shot the home...

- We shoot.

- They can shoot at home. Right?

Robin!

Look, look.

Come on, boy.

Take it away.

Go.

Cristian, cutting firewood.

- Cut.

- I'll cut.

- Very well.

- What about now?

Wake up, sleepyhead.

I'm exhausted.

It has nothing to do here.

A car is coming.

It must be the friend of Dad.

Look at the big car!

Hey, kids!

Hi, how are you?

You must be a friend of my father.

- Do not you remember me?

- No.

I remember.

Are you Cristian?

And you are July.

See, camera and all.

- Are your parents home?

- Yes, they are both.

Good

Come on, Santiago.

Show these kids

what we know.

Take it.

Check this out.

Look, look.

Take it!

Return.

Cristian, see if we know how to play.

Hugo Sanchez!

My God!

Drugs. Hurt.

- Do it again.

- You can not.

- Substitution.

- Look.

We want to ask you something.

Know the legend of the girl

has been lost here?

The story of Melinda?

Everyone knows.

This same.

- You know, right?

- No.

- Of course they know.

- Tell us. Please.

Your father must have told you.

No. Please give us details.

July, one question.

- Go sit there?

- Yes

Should I talk to him

or look for you?

Do not worry,

we're professionals.

Film it.

Is it a scar of war.

I was fixing

the roof and got hurt.

Look here, Charles.

Right.

Yes, now is good.

Hello, Carlos.

First, thanks for your time.

Tell us a little about

the legend of the girl.

The story of the girl, right?

And very old.

Passed from father to son.

My father told me.

She was named Melinda.

They say it's the spirit

a girl.

A girl who was lost

or fell into a well.

His body has never appeared.

They also say that the devil is

deceiving us, finally...

if you get lost alone at night

she appears and shows the path.

But you never saw?

No. This story

has many versions.

Some say they never

guided back to it.

They also say that it was

search for the mother and she got lost.

And when you hear

the murmurs...

it is behind you.

People who saw it...

say they never

forget the sound.

So she is evil?

I thought it was good,

because it shows us the path.

Like I said, there are many

versions of this story.

I do not think that is a spirit.

I do not believe in ghosts.

Just know that my father made me swear

that never enter the woods... Garraf

and I fulfill my promise.
