The Haunting in Connecticut Page #4
lt's all right.
-Are you sure you're feeling up to this?
-Well, put it this way, l'm....
l'm exactly the right state of being...
...to traffic with ghosts.
What is that?
Magnets. lron magnets.
lron defends from evil.
So it's no accident
that prisons have iron bars...
...to not merely contain the body,
but the evil that may lurk within it.
-What are you looking for?
-Where he died.
Sometimes when death is violent
or filled with anger...
...or fear or any strong emotion...
...it's as if the spirit doesn't pass on.
That's why we cover mirrors,
light candles, open the shades...
...so that they may find their way out.
So a house with a trapped soul
is not so much haunted...
...as it is possessed.
What's down there?
Matt's bedroom.
lt's where they used to....
Keep the children upstairs.
Yeah.
He's here.
Do you see him, Matt?
l don't see anything.
That's because you're strong, you're
healthy. You shouldn't see anything.
So this is where you're trapped.
Don't worry.
Whatever you may have done,
we're not here to punish you...
...only to free you.
Like a bird...
...caught in a room.
There must be another way.
Perhaps the other side of that wall.
l have to get his remains
out of the house.
Stop it!
lt stopped.
Will Matt be all right now?
Yeah.
The house is quiet and at peace.
But l should warn you that sometimes
for a day or so after...
...strange events, much like aftershocks
from an earthquake.
But don't be alarmed...
...it will pass,
within a day or two at the most.
-Okay.
-All right.
Thank you.
lt's okay.
l wish l could say
it was my pleasure, but....
You gonna be okay to drive?
We're all in God's hands.
It's only five more sleeps
till parents' day.
I can't wait.
I got a lot to show you, Dad.
You'll see
how I shoot the bow and arrow...
...and how far I can swim
and they're having a father-son race.
It's gonna be great.
I bet you and me,
we beat all the others...
...unless you're too old
and broke down.
Okay, well, I better go. Bye, Dad.
All right,
whatever was here is gone now.
Now, we've all had
some really bad nights.
Stay here.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my-- Oh, my--
Oh, my God.
What have you done to yourself?
All right, l'm gonna follow them. When
l get back, we're getting out of here.
Sir?
They'll be after you now.
Get out.
Somebody help me!
Please! Somebody help me!
Where's Matt?
He's at the hospital.
The doctors are gonna
take care of him, okay?
Hi. We're not home right now,
Thanks.
l made a terrible mistake.
Aickman didn't remove their eyelids
to make the dead see...
...but to make them unseen.
So all those missing bodies...
...all those poor souls in torment,
they're still there. They're in the house.
But the boy wasn't evil.
He was trying to free them.
And I removed him.
Now all that's left is their rage.
You must get out now.
Get out now.
l'm sorry.
lt's okay. You're here now.
That's all that matters.
He's sedated and comfortable.
We ran his panels.
l'm afraid it's not good news.
His cell count is worse than before.
The treatment has, frankly,
had no effect.
How long do you think he has?
With these numbers,
l don't know what's keeping him alive.
He could go tonight.
There's really no way of saying for sure.
Then can we see him?
Of course.
To fight.
One bright day
In the middle of the night
Two dead boys got up to fight
He couldn't have gotten far.
-One bright day in the middle--
-Hi, this is Dr. Brooks.
Get me security right away, please.
Two dead boys got up to fight
One bright day
In the middle of the night
Two dead boys got up to fight
Matt?
Matt?
Matt.
Come over. Come here.
We're gonna play
hide-and-seek now, okay?
Okay, go.
-We have to get out of here. Come on.
-What's going on?
We have to go. We have to--
Matt. Matt, no.
Matt, no. No.
-Get out.
-Matt.
Get out.
Matt. No. Matt.
Get out. Whatever you do,
do not let them put out the fire.
-What about you?
-l'm already dead.
-Matt, come out. Matt.
-Matt.
We'll find him.
Mom. Dad.
Where's Matt?
-He's inside.
-l don't understand.
-l thought you said it was over.
-Matt's trying to end it.
-l gotta get in.
-Ma'am.
No, you gotta let me in there.
l have to get my son.
-Fire.
-Please let me go. Please.
To unbind the spirits.
What are we waiting for? Come on!
Matt!
Oh, my God.
Okay.
All right.
l'm here. l'm here.
The Lord is my shepherd.
l shall not want.
He maketh me
to lie down in green pastures.
He leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul.
He leadeth me
in the path of righteousness.
He helped my son.
We're here. We're here. We're here.
Matt.
Be careful.
Come on, wake up.
Wake up.
He's gonna be okay.
He's gonna be okay.
No. Hold on.
Wake up.
Come on, Matty.
Come on, Matty, breathe.
l love you.
Wake up, Matt.
I just love you so much.
Come on, Matty, wake up.
Please, come on, honey.
Come on.
You'll be all right.
Hey.
He's okay.
I don't really care
if anybody believes me or not.
I know what happened.
Doctors and nurses know
and my family knows.
And my son is alive...
...and well.
That's all that matters.
They say that God works
in mysterious ways.
They just don't always tell you
how mysterious those ways can be.
Consider yourself warned.
