The Haunting in Connecticut 2: Ghosts of Georgia Page #3

Woman's voice:

Heidi.

- ( pounding )

- ( barks )

All right,

watch out, boy.

( barking )

What the hell?

Daddy?

( voices whispering )

( echoes )

help us... Help us.

Andy:

Heidi.

Heidi!

( squeaking )

( squeaking,

male voice humming )

( gasps )

Man's voice:

Help us.

( screams )

- ( screams )

- no. Damn it. Hey.

I thought I told you

to sit tight.

- ( sobbing )

- what are you hollering

about over here?

Come on.

Let's get you home.

Hey, babe.

Figure out what

this thing is yet?

Yeah.

It's a trap.

You see, you bait

that chamber there.

The animals, they get in

and they can't get back out.

They get weak and starve.

Easy pickings.

Hmm.

Then you get 'em

back out through here.

A back door.

There's got to be

a better way to hunt.

- That's just cruel.

- No, it's smart.

If you're

a taxidermist.

I already found

three more of them

in the woods.

Figure they made good money

for someone back in...

Well, whenever the hell

they still used locks

like these.

Well, smash 'em all up

so chief doesn't get

stuck in them again.

Or heidi,

for that matter.

( thunder rumbling )

I love you, lisa.

Don't be afraid.

Let them in.

- Let them in.

- ( gasps )

( thunder crashing )

( faint squeaking )

( gasps )

Oh.

Hey.

What's going on, huh?

Oh, god.

( grunts )

I have a bike.

Do you?

Oh, it's pretty.

It's purpley.

( giggles )

What do you mean?

Really?

People are coming?

What kind of people?

Who are you

talking to now?

Mr. Gordy.

That right?

Ask him where

there's more money.

I can't.

He's gone.

Next time, then.

He said there's

people coming.

Who?

( rustling )

I swear, heidi,

we should take you

and mr. Gordy on the road.

Who's there?

Stay behind me.

I got an ax.

Hello?

What the hell

is this place?

( gasps )

- Do you see her, too?

- Yeah.

Mama kay?

- Whoa, whoa.

- ( heidi gasps )

It's okay.

My name is prentiss.

This is my grandmother

mama kay.

- This your property?

- That you're trespassing on?

Yes.

We were told

we could come back here.

Bullshit.

By who?

Woman

in the trailer.

Said she's your sister.

Sold us this.

Sister-in-law.

What is that?

Shoofly.

Prentiss?

Now help me

sit on down.

I want to visit

with the little one.

Come on, little one.

It'll be all right,

young man.

Andy:

All right, you gonna tell me

why you came all the way

Out here just to buy

some ratty old quilt?

Prentiss:
Long time ago,

when this quilt was hung

out here in these woods,

It meant it was safe

to approach.

Safe for who?

Mama kay's ancestors,

for one.

Mine, too.

Do you even know

where you're living

at, mister...?

Andy.

Our pastor said

we might get visitors.

Something about

the underground railroad.

This was one

of the stations.

Mama kay's always wanted

to visit this place.

Guy saved a lot of lives,

I reckon.

And he deserved better

than what happened to him.

You don't need eyes

to see, little one.

But you already

know that.

What do you mean?

You asked your father

if he saw me.

That makes you

some kind of special.

My mama says I'm not

supposed to talk about that.

But you

have to be careful

With a gift

like that.

'cause sometimes

The devil looks

a gentleman.

Andy:

You're telling me...

All that took place

on my property?

Yes, sir.

Right here.

Guess your pastor

left that part out.

Yeah.

( laughing )

Family meeting.

Whoa, whoa.

Not you, kiddo.

You stay outside

for a minute, all right?

Okay, daddy.

Sit down, joyce.

Heidi:

That man told daddy what

happened here, didn't he?

Why can't I know?

Lisa:

It's just not a story

for little girls, sweetie.

I'm a big girl.

You always say that.

You remember

pastor wells talking

about the stationmaster?

( bell ringing )

Well, back when he

owned all this land,

He was what's called

a taxidermist.

He also did something that

he didn't tell anybody.

He would help

hide people

That were

in trouble.

People like mama kay's

great aunt nell

And her fianc levi.

Prentiss:

See, nell and levi

had fallen in love

And had dreams

of getting married once

they were safe and free.

How the hell did people

even find their way out here?

There were guides

called conductors

Who helped them.

And these quilts,

They were a code from

the stationmaster telling

them where'd he meet them.

- Look here.

You see this tree?

- Yeah.

There it is down there.

The meeting place.

The stationmaster

would come get them

And take them

to a hiding place,

Somewhere

on this property,

Until it was safe

to move on.

Well, some of

the other landowners,

They found out

what the stationmaster

had been doing

And, well, they didn't

like it very much.

So they did some

very unkind things to him.

( groaning )

They hurt him

just for helping people?

Well, they didn't see it

that way, sweetie.

What happened to nell?

She make it up north?

Nell and levi

never arrived.

No one knows

what happened to them.

Heidi:

I told you something bad

happened here.

Lisa:

No, it was

a long time ago.

All of that evil

is over and done with now.

It's still here, mama.

I can feel it.

It's in the woods.

It's coming for me.

No, it's not.

Heidi, it's all

in your head.

- It's not real.

- But mr. Gordy said--

There is

no mr. Gordy.

Heidi, listen to me.

You have to fight this.

You have to put it

out of your head or--

I'll be like you?

Dry off.

If you loved me,

you'd believe me.

It's because I love you

that I can't, baby.

I don't hear you

getting out of that tub.

Heidi wyrick,

don't make me

come back in there.

Heidi, what is

taking so long?

Heidi?

( voices whispering )

Oh, my god!

Oh, my god!

Oh, god!

Okay, okay, okay, okay.

Come on, baby.

Cough it up.

( coughing )

Honey!

( screaming )

Lisa.

Heidi.

Andy.

What happened?

She was convulsing

and unconscious.

And vomiting sawdust

and insects?

- Andy.

- Are you on any medication,

mrs. Wyrick?

You didn't see what I saw.

I saw her.

- You weren't there.

- Heidi.

Do you remember

any of this?

Yeah, baby.

I didn't dry off

like I was supposed to.

And mama pulled me out

of the tub real hard.

I'm sorry,

that's not what happened.

They've been through

enough for tonight.

Come on.

Just tell me exactly what

we're supposed to do here.

If you want my advice,

I suggest you consult

with a psychiatrist.

Or a priest.

Thanks.

- Andy.

- Let's let heidi

rest up a sec.

It's hard when people

don't believe you,

Isn't it?

Really, lisa?

We're possessed

by the devil now?

Good lord, people.

It's a blessing,

not an exorcism.

Please.

Hi.

Pastor:

Lord, we pray this night

For the soul

of an innocent child,

And the banishment

of evil from this land.

I want you to pray

with me now.

Can you do that?

In the name

of the father,

I ask for the cleansing

of fear and sickness

From the mind and

the soul of this child.

I ask that

you fill heidi

With the warmth

of your love into

her heart.

And that you call

upon your angels
