The Sound Page #2

---

sound that's below

the threshold of human

hearing, can't really be heard,

but it can be felt.

There are researchers,

people like me,

believe that this

type of tactile sound

is what causes ghost

sightings, which are really

just hallucinations.

How would that be?

Well, the sound

causes vibrations.

Vibrations that cause

subtle eye movement,

movement in the

matter around you.

If this type of sound

is strong enough,

it can bend metal,

it could crush a car.

Here's a different

school of thought.

People that think the sound

is caused by the spirits.

That the frequency opens

up some sort of portal

to the other side,

which is, of course,

completely ridiculous.

So you don't believe

that ghosts are real?

I've spent my entire

career proving they're not.

Why would this place

have that kind of sound?

This station,

because it's under

other functioning stations

serves as a sort of vessel

for this tactile sound.

So how would you

prove that these waves

of what these people

are seeing down here?

I've been looking over

the map of the tunnels

and there's an area,

it's at the farthest end

of the station, I think the

waves, I think they should be

the strongest there.

The location of that

room's where all three

tunnels converge.

I think they'll be so

potent we may be able

to record the hallucinations.

I'm game if you are.

Hey, I let you sleep for awhile.

Thought you could use it.

Yeah.

You sure you're up for this?

Yes I'm sure.

You sure?

You could be home in a warm bed.

No, I'm an insomniac.

- Let's do this.

- Alright.

So what are we looking for here?

Zep, here.

It's at the end of the station.

That room there.

Alright, I see it.

And then what?

Then we hope to

record infrasonic waves

to prove to the paranormally

curious, once again,

that there is no

such thing as ghosts

and that this thing they

call the ghost station

is really just a

rat infested pit

with some interesting graffiti.

Then I suppose people won't

come down here no more, right?

Sure, unless i

can't prove it's fake.

But that's not a

possibility, is it?

So what are you?

A believer or non?

I really haven't

given it much thought.

So annoying.

I get perfect Internet

from the upper bay,

but down here, my

phone signal drops out.

What are you doing?

I'm documenting my activity.

I like to put pictures

with my stories.

And what does graffiti

have to do with your story?

This isn't just any graffiti.

This is the infamous

lady in red.

And how do you know that?

I saw some photos online.

Some photos?

No, there's no photos.

And how would you

know that, detective?

I thought you weren't

interested in ghost stories.

What happened?

That just looks

like a light fell.

Oh, old fingers.

The light's still

out in the back.

Oh, I'm working on it.

I'm sure there's

no rush to fix them.

Since no one's supposed

to be down here.

I'll get on it.

Come on, let's go.

Take me to the

lower bay station.

Guess you don't need the map.

Who are you?

It doesn't matter who I am.

All right?

The only thing that

matters is that you and me

want the same thing.

Ok?

What do you want?

And why did you lie to me?

Why did you act like

you didn't know anything

about this place?

Look, there's only one

thing I'm interested in.

And that one thing

is for you to prove

that there's no

ghosts down here.

Simple.

What if I can't?

And why couldn't you?

I mean, that is what you do,

is it not?

Unless you changed your mind and

you believe in ghosts.

Do you?

No.

I don't believe in ghosts.

Ok.

Then you can do this.

- Why do you care so much?

- It's none of your business.

I just need you

to prove this, ok?

And I don't need any

pictures of that graffiti

or videos leaking out.

Oh my god.

You're the one.

It was you.

That sent me the

photos, you that

contacted me, it was

you that messaged me.

How do you even know?

It wasn't that hard

to find out.

Now.

I understand.

It must have been scary

for an eight year old.

I mean, they never did

close that case, did they?

And that is why you ended up

in the institution.

Look, just follow the plan,

and you'll walk away from this.

Why are you doing this?

You know why I'm doing this,

I want you to do what

you came here to do.

Debunk.

You tell all those

people that it's those

sound waves and all that

crap that you write about.

Move.

Come on.

I don't want to hurt you.

But I will.

So just stick with the

plan, and we'll both

walk away from here.

Ok?

Get up.

Move.

What?

This is it.

How do you know?

I can feel it.

So what now?

You read the sound, right?

Right, well, fortunately,

one of us has to stay out

here to measure waves while

the other goes inside.

What's going on?

I don't know, there must

be some kind of accident.

You ready?

Yeah, I'm ready.

Detective, get out of there.

Huh?

Detective.

Come on, let me go.

Please.

Come on.

Detective, detective.

Detective, get out of there.

Get out of there.

Help me.

Jesus, kel, I've

been worried sick.

There's something

going on down here.

I need help.

All right, all right.

Just try and stay calm, ok?

Can you get out?

I don't know.

I need you.

I'm coming for you,

ok, just hang on.

I want you to focus on

finding a way out, ok?

Kel?

Kel?

Damn.

Which way do I go?

On foot, are you crazy?

You're like four miles out.

Just humor me.

See those buildings?

Head for them.

Claudette Irving.

Ophelia larue.

Colin Jones.

They're not real.

- 911 emergency.

- My fiance is

in the lower bay train station.

I think she's stuck.

- Is she locked in, sir?

- I don't know.

- Is your fiance's name

Kelly Johansson?

-Yes, yes, it is.

-Apparently she called in

a false lead earlier.

Sir, need I remind you

that misleading an officer

of the law is a crime?

What?

- Hello--

- f***.

- Sir, are you there?

- F***.

Who's there?

Are you afraid, Kelly?

You don't need to be.

We are here to help each other.

Mythology moths

represent a spirit not

at rest, a lost soul.

Kelly!

Kel!

Kelly!

Kelly!

Oh, thank god.

Are you okay?

I'm supposed to help her.

I'm supposed to help them all.

I think that's why

i was brought here.

Help who?

The spirits.

Kell, honey, you're

not thinking straight.

Just wait 'til i

get there, okay?

I'm close.

I'm inside the tunnels.

It has to be done.

I'm running out of time.

Is it somehow

connected to Emily?

Kell?

Yeah, I'm here.

I don't know.

Maybe.

I think so.

I didn't realize

what day it is.

I'm sorry.

Do you think I'm

imagining this?

I'll be there soon.

Just wait 'til I get there.

Just tell me how to find you.

There's an exit sign.

It's lit up.

I saw it when I came down here.

Find that door.

Okay.

I'll meet you there.

Somebody there?

Emily?

Is that you?

Cam?

Ethan, she's down here.

Who's down there?

Emily.

I have to do it now.

Kell, please.

No, look, there's a room.

She led me there.

She led you there how?

I followed her.
