Haunted Echoes Page #4

She's one crazy old witch.

What do you mean?

You'll see.

[Knocking]

Miss Gitchell. You got company.

MRS. GITCHELL:

Who the hell is it?

Ralph, is that you?

Where the hell ya been, Ralph?

I've been cooking all day.

It's isn't Ralph, Mrs. Gitchell, uh,

it's Guy Dykstra.

I live in the house you used to own.

Well. Come over here so I can get

a better look at you, huh?

Who are they?

Oh, uh, that's my wife, Laura,

and her sister, Claire.

Uh, Laura lives at the house with me.

Do you like spaghetti?

My baby, he don't like spaghetti.

But I make him eat it anyway.

'Cause it's real good for you.

Well, yeah, it is. Spaghetti is

a vital part of a balanced diet.

Yeah, um...

But, uh, look, I was wondering, um,

we've been having some strange

things go on at the house.

For instance, the computer

and printer and TV

will go on for no reason,

and, and, and there's, uh,

we found writing on the wall.

Writing.

That's right.

Well, those Mexicans... they spray

crap every now and again.

I don't like those Mexicans.

There's more and more of them

all the time.

Yeah, well, I don't think this has

anything to do with Mexicans.

You never,

back when it was your house,

you never noticed

anything strange going on?

They killed those Kennedy boys,

both of them.

Good thing, I say.

Chasing all those girls around.

That's when you ruin everything,

when you chase the girls around.

My baby, he knows that for sure.

Your baby?

MRS. GITCHELL:
I got two.

Only one's alive.

I promised myself no one

would ever take him away.

They'd have to go through me first.

GUY:
Hm.

And, and the other one,

what about him?

Or, or was it a him?

What the hell you talking about?

Your baby, Mrs. Gitchell.

He was just two weeks old.

Just two weeks.

And he ups and dies.

It was the year that, that...

Yes?

Ralph?

Where the hell

have you been all day?

I've been cooking all day!

She got ya, huh?

Yeah, she got me the same way

one or two times, man.

Thanks for the warning.

CLAIRE:
Laura, you remember

Stephanie Watkins, don't you?

Remember that girl I used to live with

right before I met Jason?

Well, she used to be friends

with a psychic--

Forget it.

No, no. Get the number.

-Anything's more productive than this.

-MALE:
Excuse me.

Now, I have specifically asked Claire

not to tell me anything about you,

and you haven't, have you, Claire?

I haven't. No.

Now there's a wonder.

JAY:
There's no place here

for that kind of attitude.

Now, if you won't take this seriously,

you can just leave now.

Or I will.

LAURA:
There won't be any more

disruptions to the proceedings,

will there, Jason?

CLAIRE AND JASON: No.

JASON:
There, there won't be.

JAY:
Now, this is not a sance,

it's a reading.

I'm not going to be writing

anything down.

I just use this

to help me concentrate.

Understood?

Just answer yes or no.

-GUY:
Yes.

-LAURA:
Yes.

JAY:
Now, I'm gonna ask you

a few questions

and whenever I ask one,

I want you to answer yes or no.

Yes.

JAY:
I'm not trying to lead you

in any way.

This just helps me to stay focused.

Understood?

Yes.

JAY:
There's a girl.

She's a very young girl,

I can't quite tell her age.

But her name begins with a C.

No. Make that a K.

Does this mean anything to you?

Yes.

JAY:
This girl,

she says she's your daughter.

She says she loved you both

very much,

but she was taken away from you

very suddenly.

CLAIRE:
[Gasps]

JAY:
Does this mean

anything to you?

She was murdered.

JAY:
Just yes or no, please.

Yes.

She says something about singing.

She says she sings for you both

all the time.

Because she knows you feel bad

about the way she left,

and she wants you to feel better.

Does this make any sense to you?

LAURA:
Yes.

She says she knows

this has been very hard on you both.

She knows you blame each other

for what happened.

And it makes her very sad.

She hears you fighting all the time,

and she wants you to stop

and realize that she's always

with you...

...everywhere you go.

Is this understood?

Yes.

Now, this house where you're living...

She says it's no accident

that you're here.

She led you here

for a very special reason.

Is this understood?

LAURA:
Yes.

JAY:
There is a man.

His name is...

I can't see it.

This man is the reason

she's no longer with you.

She's been trying to tell you

about this man for the longest time.

And this is not the man

the police were blaming.

The true man...

Can't make it out.

His name is...

...priest.

Is he a priest?

But this is the man

who took her from you.

He's taken others before,

and he will take others again,

unless you stop him.

Is this understood?

Yes.

JAY:
She says you have to do

whatever is necessary to stop him,

even if you have to take the life

of this man yourselves.

You must do it.

There are children all around him,

and he's planning to do to others

what he did to her.

-What is his name?

-JAY:
Can you please be quiet?

Now... She's gone.

GUY:
No.

You're just like Stephanie said

you were.

Didn't you hear me tell you before

we started not to say one word?

JASON:
She said she was sorry.

Well, it's too late for that,

isn't it?

This young girl had a very

important message for her parents,

and you went and...

[Groans]

GUY:
What is it?

Oh, my God!

GUY:
Sergeant MacDonald?

Oh, look at this.

Oh, boy, it's good to see you.

Uh, are we interrupting?

No, no, have a seat.

Oh, good.

I'm just writin' up

a freakin' arrest report.

Yeah.

What'd you do to your face?

GUY:
Oh, l, uh, cut myself shaving.

Well, that's some nick.

GUY:
Yeah.

How are you two holdin' up?

-Oh, we're good.

-Well...

Not a day goes by

that I don't think about you.

-Well, that's nice to hear.

-No, I'm serious.

I got in a prayer request at church,

whole congregation's praying for you.

LAURA:
Thank you.

My wife asked after you.

Kimberly touched a lot of people.

Yes, she did.

She really did, yeah.

So, you still in the same place?

No, we moved.

MACDONALD:

That's good, that's good.

Must have been tough

living in that house.

It was very tough.

A house or...?

Uh, yes, it's a house, it's, it's real

nice, we like it just fine now.

Uh, but...

the last few weeks we've, uh,

we've really started to have

some serious doubts about the case.

Doubts?

Uh, yeah, we're just not convinced

Dennis Law was guilty anymore.

MACDONALD:
Well--

I know it sounds strange, but he--

We just want to speak

to you about it.

Let me ease your minds

about that right now.

There's not a question in my mind

that he was guilty, not a one.

I'm not talking

about just the hard evidence,

the hair, the fiber, the rest.

I'm talking about a gut feeling.

When you do this work

as long as I have,

you get a sense of these things.

Well, that's what you told us

at the time.

MACDONALD:
What?

Well, for instance, the hair

you found on Kimberly's body,

it matched Dennis Law,

that's what you told us, right?

But if he's the one

that found the body,
