The Old Dark House Page #5

Synopsis: Seeking shelter from a pounding rainstorm in a remote region of Wales, several travellers are admitted to a gloomy, foreboding mansion belonging to the extremely strange Femm family. Trying to make the best of it, the guests must deal with their sepulchral host, Horace Femm and his obsessive, malevolent sister Rebecca. Things get worse as the brutish manservant Morgan gets drunk, runs amuck and releases the long pent-up brother Saul, a psychotic pyromaniac who gleefully tries to destroy the residence by setting it on fire.

Oh, no. All right

Wait a minute.

Here, start this.

Oh, I love you so much. Just what I want.

Please. Please do not touch me.

Good! What is it?

Listen, I do not re-lock. Do not let me lock again.

I'm not crazy. I swear to God I'm not crazy.

And why would that shut him up?

I have fear. I know things about them. Years ago, killed his sister Rachel.

But I do not think counting! I promised I would never tell.

And they have remained here all this time for that?

And Morgan ... I assure you, it's the devil. Morgan hits me.

Do not leave me! Stay with me!

It's okay. Sit here and wait. Be right back.

The door is locked! Ms.. Femm must've closed.

It's locked, right? Yes.

That's better. Now, you can not stop me.

Listen, we have to go help the rest with Morgan.

Is there another way in?

No. There is no way ...

But there must be a back entrance to the house.

Freeze!

I want to tell a story.

Who's there? Nobody.

Friends of yours?

I tell you no one.

Do invite her out?

You ... You. Going to tell me something.

Yes, it is.

Do not ... I did not tell that story?

Yes. Shall we sit?

Yes, please.

Who is in that closet?

No one. Tell me what I was going to say.

Are you interested in the fire?

Of course ... of course yes. Yes, quite.

I have done a study on the fire.

Really? This seems very interesting.

Fire know things that no one else in the world knows.

And not me going to say? I would like to know.

Why's he going to say? You. Would not tell me who is inside that closet.

Yes I would say. Besides, you know, it would be unfair to arouse my curiosity ...

And at the end ... not tell me anything.

Want me to tell you all about fire, right?

Yes, I'm looking forward.

All right. First of all, I learned that llamas are like razors.

They are cool, man. Sharp and cold as snow, and hot as ice.

Oh. Certainly that's very ... very interesting.

So, really they are like razors, right? Well, continue.

Tell me what else has discovered.

Oh, lots of things. Dude, sit down.

So I thought I could fool me, right?

I thought I could leave me sitting here and not notice.

But as you can see, I am also ready. That's why we understand each other.

So he quickly realized that he wanted to kill.

We understand each other very well, eh, my friend?

Yes, yes, of course. From the start, for some reason ...

... You ... you. Pleased me and I ... I thought you liked me.

Please me? Dude, I do. Did you know that my name is Saul?

Saul, friend. And Saul loved David.

Yes, of course.

But Saul was afraid of David because the Lord was with him but had departed from Saul.

And sooner or later it had to happen that the spirit of evil from taking over Saul.

And he prophesied in the midst of the temple. And David played the harp with his hands.

And Saul had a spear in his hands.

And Saul threw the spear.

And he said, & quot; atravesar her to David and stab you in the wall & quot ;.

And David left his sight twice. Twice friend ...

And ... the third ... the third time ... be careful.

Hey. I am your friend. I'm on your side. It would be foolish to miss. If I lose ...

Look! Is Morgan! He's come for you.! Morgan!

Freeze! Do not move!

Philip! Philip!

Oh, leave! Do not see it? There's Penderel!

Let me go with him. Come on let me. Go, let me pass.

Oh, you're a pig. But I'm not afraid. I go with him. Do you hear me?

Oh, how can?

Listen, I'm single, you hear me? I want to go with Penderel. It hurt.

Oh, how I can make you understand me? He was hurt.

I have to help him and the other man, Saul.

The two are injured.

Are you all right, Margaret? Yes, I'm fine, dear.

Gladys.

It's okay. Come on. Are you feeling better?

Yes, I'm not so bad.

What happened to them? It was Morgan. The hit.

Come on.

I'm all right. Where is Penderel? I have to heal.

Better not go there.

Come with me.

-Est Alive! 'What?

I tell them that is alive! He's alive!

Good Morning.

Good Morning.

Good morning, Mr. Waverton.

Good Morning.

The floods have come down considerably.

Thank the heavens for that.

I think they will now be possible to go by ambulance.

You mean we can go now?

Yes, sure we can go now. Come with me, dear.

-ud. are going to stay here with Gladys, right? Yes. Do not delay.

No, we'll go as fast as we can.

Goodbye. Goodbye.

Bye Bye. Nice to have met you.

So I'm dead and I have gone to heaven.

No, it's morning and we have just left behind hell.

-De Day? Yes. The rays of dawn.

Do not tell me you had to something with the first rays of dawn?

On second thought, there was something.

Perkins. Will you marry me?
