Julie!

Julie!

(suspenseful music)

(door creaking)

Here she comes.

(suspenseful music)

(Julie hitting floor)

(suspenseful music)

(Julie screaming)

(Sisters howling)

(girls laughing)

This gook is the best.

Did you see that?

Right on her neck.

- Remember that Peter Lorre film

where the hand got it.

(Carol screaming)

- Cut that out!

You should take that

thing down there

and see if you can

hit her in the face.

(stone crunching)

- All right, what

are you gonna do?

- I'll be right here when

you chase her back this way.

- Cool.

(suspenseful music)

(stone crunching)

(frenzied music)

(Julie panting heavily)

(haunted moaning)

(girls screaming)

- Wow, that was

fantastic, we sure

couldn't have planned

that one better.

- Yeah, you sure scared her.

- Now we got her

going so she'll start

seeing things on her own.

(motorcycle revving)

- Hey where's Julie?

- Why are you asking me?

- Why do you think?

- I guess she's still in there.

- In where?

- It wasn't my idea, okay?

- In where, huh?

- Well, they're initiating her.

- Damn it, Leslie,

now, where are they?

- They're in the mausoleum.

Look, we really didn't

think she was gonna do it!

- Listen, so you mean

she's out in the

cemetery somewhere?

- No.

She's inside the mausoleum.

- What?

- I told Carol the whole

thing was really stupid,

but she had to go in

there and terrorize her.

- Damn her.

Stupid.

- It was some sort

of broken window

they were gonna

sneak in through.

Watch out.

- Listen, come on.

- What do you mean come on?

- Well you're gonna

show me where it is.

- No!

No way, I'm not

going in that place.

If you wanna go, you go, Hugo.

- Thanks a lot.

Those guys are in a

lot of trouble now.

(motorcycle revving)

- [Man On Tape] Doing

some hereditary studies,

we found that members

of the same family

often possess similar

psychic powers,

even children raised

apart from the parents

may be capable of

psychic abilities.

When I asked about

Raymar's daughter, he

almost violently,

refused to discuss her.

His reaction was

strange, strong,

almost protective in a way.

The children can often

have psychic abilities

and not realize what they are.

It may be worth testing

the daughter at some time.

Considering the

strength of his powers,

it would be interesting

to follow up on.

- [Julie] Our Father,

who art in Heaven,

hallowed be they name.

Thy kingdom come,

thy will be done,

on earth as it is in heaven.

And give us this

day, our daily bread,

forgive us our trespasses

as we forgive those

who trespass against us.

Lead us not into temptation, but

deliver us from evil.

For thine is the kingdom,

the power and the ...

- Hey Carol, here's her stuff.

Wouldn't it be really funny

if we were to plant

the stuff around.

- Hey, it looks

like a new arrival.

- Hey, what are you doing?

- Wait a second.

I just wanna take a look.

Well, what's the matter?

- All this stuff reminds

me of when my uncle died.

Funerals are weird.

- Mm, this one

sure smells fresh.

- Don't do that!

- Do you prefer your

corpses fresh or rotted?

Karl Raymarseivich.

Raymar?

Wow.

- Who's he?

- You haven't heard

about this weirdo?

He could move things

with his mind.

You know, tele, tele-something.

Anyway, they found a whole bunch

of dead girls in his apartment.

Real bizarre guy.

- He could really move

things with his mind?

- [Carol] Of course not.

My dad said he was a fake.

- Why's that cracked?

- I don't know.

Maybe he wants out!

(Kitty screaming)

(Carol laughing)

Hey, guess what. I still have

half a joint in my pocket.

- You wanna smoke it right here?

- Well sure, why not?

Who's gonna bust us?

This is definitely better

than that last smoke.

- Uh-Uh.

- Why do you always

chew on that toothbrush?

- I don't know, I guess I

just like the way it tastes.

- Oh well, let's get

back to business.

Hey sicko, want a hit?

(Carol laughing)

Come on.

(ominous music)

(furniture rattling)

(suspenseful music)

(furniture crashing)

(wood cracking)

It's Julie!

Come on, let's spread out.

- Spread out?

- Yeah, I'll go this

way and you go that way.

- But Carol --

(furniture rattling)

(suspenseful music)

(ominous music)

(loud crashing)

(electric whirring)

(Julie screaming)

(furniture crashing)

(Julie screaming)

(motorcycle engine driving by)

(frenzied music)

(Julie crying)

- [Julie] Let me out!

Please!

(Julie sobbing)

(ominous music)

- Hey Kitty.

Kitty?

Kitty?

Kitty?

(dramatic music)

Kitty?

(both screaming)

Why did you do that?

Take that stupid thing off.

- [Kitty] Sorry.

- Did you see what she

did to that chapel?

She tore it up!

She must've gone crazy.

- Oh, let's get out of here.

- Okay.

(metal banging)

(motorcycle engine running)

(motorcycle revving)

(ominous music)

- [Kitty] Girl, let's

book out of this place.

(electric whirring)

(suspenseful music)

(electrical whirring)

- [Julie] (crying) No, no.

- [Steve] Julie!

- [Man On Tape]

Whatever Raymar's powers

or capabilities

were, the temptation

for him to use them wrongly

seemed to have been great.

You could sense an evil

presence about him.

His special abilities

and powers made me

very afraid of what

the man was capable of

in this life, or even in death.

(suspenseful music)

(clock ticking)

- Mausoleum.

The mausoleum.

Show me the mausoleum.

(suspenseful music)

(girls panting)

(girls screaming)

(frenzied music)

- [Carol] Let's get out of here.

(loud banging)

(electrical whirring)

(door slamming)

Let's try to get

out the front door!

(dramatic music)

(electric whirring)

(girls screaming)

Somebody! Somebody!

(girls screaming)

(glass shattering)

- Carol!

Carol, I'm so scared.

How are we gonna get out?

- I don't know.

(electrical whirring)

- There's gotta be

another way out of here.

- [Carol] Maybe we can find

something to break a window.

- [Kitty] What about

one of those chairs

from that funeral down the hall?

- [Carol] Good idea!

(girls screaming)

(stone crashing)

(loud exploding)

(girls crying)

(Olivia screaming)

(suspenseful music)

(electrical whirring)

(suspenseful music)

(girls screaming)

(glass shattering)

(suspenseful music)

(electric whirring)

- Olivia, what happened?

- [Olivia] I'm going back

there, back to the mausoleum.

- [Allan] Why?

- [Olivia] I've got to stop him.

- [Allan] Who?

- [Olivia] My father, Allan.

There are things

you don't understand

and there's no time to explain.

- [Allan] Olivia.

- [Olivia] Don't try to stop me.

- [Allan] Do you realize

how crazy this sounds?

Olivia.

Olivia, you can't

keep on with this.

- I have to, Allan.

(suspenseful music)

(door sticking)

(girls coughing)

(suspenseful whirring)

(electrical whirring)

- [Carol] Oh no, Kitty, no.

- [Kitty] Get away.
