What happened?
They're dying.
Someone's going to kill us.
ls my son there?
Aurora, is Simon with you?
ls Simon here?
Aurora, can you hear me?
Let's get her.
Aurora, stay in the middle
of the room.
l'll count from ten.
Ten...
Nine...
Eight...
l was in the house, but...
everything was different.
The beds, the toys, the decor,
everything was much older.
The light from the lighthouse
came through the windows.
You didn't see Simon?
lt was too dark,
l'm sorry.
l couldn't recognize anyone.
But the children were there.
You saw the children.
ls that right?
That's right.
And what is a ghost, Carlos?
There's something here,
and we all saw it.
When something terrible happens,
sometimes it leaves a trace,
a wound that acts
as a knot between two time lines.
lt's like an echo
repeated over and over,
waiting to be heard.
Like a scar...
Oh, l'm sorry.
Like a scar or a pinch
that begs for a caress
to relieve it.
Laura...
we who are close to death,
we are more receptive
to these messages.
You mean my son
could see those children
because...
That's enough.
Please take yourthings and leave.
We can't let them go like this.
Laura, this is a farce,
a sideshow trick.
l can't believe this. Why?
Forwhat reason?
They're right...
-They don't want money.
-Not yet.
What should l do?
What should l do?
The police haven't found
a single clue
as to whether he's
dead or alive.
What do l do,
just sit and wait?
Can it hurt to listen?
-Laura, stop!
-No, you stop!
Pilar...
How many similar cases
have you had in this damned village?
Get another distraction,
l didn't invite you here.
What should l do?
My dear,
you are a good mother.
Your pain gives you strength,
it will guide you.
But only you know
to find your son.
l don't know what to do.
You hear, but don't listen.
Seeing is not believing.
lt's the otherway around.
Believe,
and you will see.
What are you doing?
We can't stay here any longer.
We should go,
at least for a while.
The children are here.
Aurora saw them. l can't leave.
You heard the voices.
That Enrique could have faked it all.
Can't you see it could be a set-up?
That's Pilar's theory,
a set-up?
-Her rational theory?
-She's protecting us.
From what?
Things like this evening.
People entering our home
and f***ing up our lives.
-They just want to help.
-Help?
Didn't you hearthem?
Did they mention finding Simon?
They just want to contact the dead.
lf Simon's alive,
l can't see how they can help us.
lf he's not,
they won't recover him.
l don't want to keep
taking this sh*t.
Please, let's leave this house.
You can't ask me to give up.
Neitheryou nor Pilar.
We can survive this. Many couples
lose a child and pull through.
l want to be with Simon,
don't you understand?
lf you want to go, l can't stop you.
l just want to know
where he is!
Where are you?
l'm not afraid.
You want to play?
Are you playing with me?
Benigna?
Please, don't let it be Simon.
-There are five, right?
-Yes.
All my friends.
Martin, Rita, Alicia,
Guillermo, Victor.
Benigna killed them.
That's why she went to the shed,
to recovertheir bodies.
l've thought it out.
Their game killed Tomas
and now they're playing
with Simon and me.
Simon's in danger
and l don't know how to play.
l don't know how to play.
Laura, you're making it up.
l saw it myself.
And this afternoon?
Who laid out the clues?
Simon made it all up.
Who?
Tell me! Who?
l've packed.
l don't want us to stay here.
l can't leave yet.
l won't live here,
and you're not staying alone.
l can't just leave,
there are too many memories.
l have to say goodbye.
Two days.
Alone.
Please, l need this.
Please.
Please bless
what you have given us.
Thank you for letting us
gather once again
and be together.
What else do you want?
What more must l do?
What?
l have no time,
l have no time.
You want to keep playing?
ls that it?
Let's make a deal.
l'll play a while,
then you tell me where Simon is.
OK?
One, two, three,
knock on the wall!
One, two, three,
knock on the wall.
Wait, wait!
No.
l won't hurt you.
l just want to find Simon...
Why are you crying?
Oh, my darling!
Are you OK?
You're freezing.
Don't be afraid,
l'll get you out.
Stay and play with us.
We can't stay to play.
Listen to me, Simon.
lmagine it's just you
and me here. OK?
to this house.
Remember?
Think only about that, OK?
Think only about that,
think about Daddy,
think about next Christmas,
and all the things we'll do together.
So many things, darling!
Close your eyes, tight,
shut them really tight
and think about what you'll be
when you grow up.
What would you like to be, darling?
Think about the schools you'll go to,
the friends you'll make.
And just believe for a moment
that Tomas and the other children
aren't real.
This is a fantasy, my darling,
like a nightmare.
Do it for me, Simon.
When you open your eyes,
make them go away.
Close your eyes, darling,
and keep on playing with me.
Keep on playing, darling, OK?
-What is it?
-Tomas'little house.
l found you.
This isn't fair.
l found you...
l want Simon back!
Mummy, can l wake up?
Of course you can, darling.
Mummy...
Now l just have to make a wish.
l wish you'll stay
and look after all of us.
lt's Laura!
She's grown old,
like Wendy in the story.
lt's Laura.
Come, don't be afraid.
The house. The beach.
The lost children.
Once upon a time
there was a house nearthe beach
where the lost children lived...
and of the orphans
Martin, Rita,
Guillermo, Alicia, Victor
and Tomas
