with the sounds of children.
He took them from his mills
and he brought them here,
but he wouldn't let them go.
And I found the skulls,
just like Carolyn did.
- Calm down, now.
- And he had a second wife.
But he couldn't hide
his secret.
You can never hide
a secret.
Carolyn found out
what he'd done.
And now he wants me.
Who ? Who wants you ?
And why ?
- She's delusional.
- But what is happening to her ?
She's in a fugue state.
Let's get her to the sofa.
- Wanted to... fill the house
with children, but...
- Get a blanket.
- Come on.
- he-he turned into a monster.
- It's okay, sweetheart. It's okay.
- No.
Carolyn showed me in the photograph
where she hid 'em.
And they're all
locked together in there.
- He won't let them go.
- Eleanor, listen to me.
Listen to me. Listen to me.
It's not true.
He's still here.
Hugh Crain
is still in the house.
- No.
- Yeah.
I mean, what if she's right ?
What if she's right ?
What are you sayin', Theo ?
It doesn't do any good to talk about--
- Stop. Stop ! Stop !
- What if she's right ?
Now, listen to me,
all of you.
Let me explain
what's happening.
You're participating in a study
on group fear and hysteria.
What ? That's why you brought us here ?
That's what this is all about ?
You brought us here to scare us ?
Is that it ?
Yes.
You're just waiting for her to have a total
nervous breakdown before you said anything ?
- No !
- What is your problem ?
I gave you the clues. You created
the story as you were meant to.
- But it's over. I'm pulling the plug.
- Oh, that--
- None of this is real.
- No, it is real.
- Eleanor, it's not real.
- No !
- You have to look at
- It's not real !
And then I saw-- I saw his wife,
hanging in the greenhouse !
- I know I saw it !
- I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry
I brought you here, all of you.
The Dudleys will be here in the morning,
and then we can all go home at once.
- No ! I can't believe
you're not gonna look.
- Okay, that's enough.
- I'm taking her upstairs.
I think you've done enough.
- I'll help you.
Because it was a controlled experiment.
A controlled experiment ?
You can't do that !
- I told you,
it wasn't meant to be like this.
- Oh, come on.
You don't care about us.
You don't care about insomnia.
You just wanted to scare the hell out of
us so we'd fit into your little test...
- or model or whatever bullshit
you need to understand this !
- Oh, please ! Okay !
- You can't do it !
- Now, listen ! You listen.
I am trying to help people. My field
of study is the science of fear.
I try to understand why people
act the way they act, why
they feel the way they feel--
You don't feel.
Where are you going ?
I'm gonna find out
what Eleanor was talking about.
What am I doing ?
Good night.
Be right back.
I'll get you some tea.
Oh, God, it's looking for me.
Who was holding my hand ?
No.
No !
No !
I will not let you
hurt a child !
Luke !
David !
Dr Marrow !
Luke !
Eleanor!
No !
That's not me !
No !
No !
Who are you ?
Oh, no !
Why do you want me ?
Who am I ?
Who am I ?
Why do you want me ?
Why ?
Oh, God !
Who am I ?
What are you trying to tell me ?
Welcome home, Eleanor.
Oh, no ! No !
It's not true.
No !
- Eleanor?
- What ?
Eleanor, don't be afraid.
You can understand me ?
The doors, Eleanor.
Only the doors can hold him.
Oh, no !
He's coming!
What ?
What's wrong ?
What do you want from me ?
Help us, Eleanor.
Help us.
What ? What are you
trying to tell me ?
What ? What do you
want from me ?
What do you
want me to do ?
Nell ?
- Nell !
- I'm gonna help you.
I'm gonna help.
Eleanor.
- I wanna help you.
- Eleanor.
Don't move.
Don't move.
Oh, Nell.
Just stay there.
- Hold on, Eleanor.
- Watch out! The cable!
Look out!
It's not gonna hold your weight there !
Don't move, now. Don't move.
Oh, my God.
No !
Oh, sh*t.
Eleanor, look at me.
I need you to climb over
and step back on the platform.
Come on. I want you
to come down with me.
Climb over and step on the platform.
Can you do that ?
I can't.
The children, they need me.
I have to join them.
Please.
Please, trust me.
Climb off the rail
onto the platform.
- Come on. Come on.
- Just do it, Nell.
Please ?
No ! No !
Hold on !
Here.
- Here.
- Thank you.
Thank you.
Hurry.
- Come on.
- No. He won't let them go.
Even now,
he won't let them go.
- Come on. Come on. We have to go.
- No, he won't--
- I won't leave you. I won't leave you.
- Okay.
She doesn't look good.
Hey, I think I'm gonna take her
to see a doctor, right now.
to see a real doctor.
We'll take her to the hospital
in the morning. The gate's still locked.
We have to wait
until the Dudleys arrive.
What ? That's
real compassionate.
Yeah, let's wait
until the morning,
and then maybe tonight you'll have
a chance to scribble a few more...
- "Welcome home, Eleanor"s on the wall.
- I didn't write that, okay ?
That wouldn't be ethical, would it ?
Will you guys just shut up ?
Come on !
Somebody's gonna have to stay with
her tonight. We can't leave her alone.
All right,
I'll take the first watch.
Okay.
The, uh, environment is
proving entirely successful...
in promoting
shared hysteria reactions.
The group is manifesting--
manifesting classic
pathologies of trauma and--
when Mary got hurt,
and definitely
when Eleanor was--
Jesus, I need to
get them out of here.
What happened ?
What happened ?
It's nothin'.
It's not real.
It's Nell !
Nell !
Nell ! Nell !
- Dr Marrow! Dr Marrow!
- What's going on ?
I can't get the door !
Stay away !
- Nell!
- Eleanor!
- Eleanor !
- We're here !
Eleanor!
- Push !
- Come on !
Oh, my God !
Nell ! Quick !
Come on !
We gotta get her
out of here.
Oh, God !
Hurry up !
- Get out of the way!
- That's it.
That's it. Come on ! Hit it!
- Come on !
- Come on, Nell ! Come on !
Get up !
Come on ! Pick her up !
We gotta go ! Move !
Move!
Let's go !
Come on ! I'm not staying in this
freak house another second ! Come on !
Get it open ! Come on !
- I can't get up there !
- Come on !
Hurry up !
Come on !
Oh, God !
Dr Marrow.
How did you know the house wanted me ?
What do you mean ?
Why did you call and tell me
to look for your ad ?
Ad ? But--
I didn't call you.
You told me
to look in the paper.
Eleanor, the first time I spoke to you
was here at the house.
- God !
- What do we do ?
Nell, I need your car.
Move !
Get out of the way !
Luke !
- Luke, are you okay ?
- Get out ! Get out !
- Open the door !
Eleanor!
Luke!
- Eleanor!
- Come on ! You gotta get out !
- Please, come back!
- Push the door!
