The Unnamable Page #3

No.

They're just trying to scare us.

It's working.

Come on. Get in here.

Oh, hey. I got a flashlight here somewhere.

Looks like it's our turn to scare them.

I don't think Tanya's pleased

I left her like that.

Don't worry. Bruce'll take care of her.

Come on.

I suggest we find a parallel parking spot.

Attic.

I don't think so.

This room looks pretty good.

- It's super.

- That's the spirit.

Hey, speaking of spirits, I got another bottle.

Oh.

They gotta be around here somewhere.

Is the Homecoming Queen

always a Kappa Alpha girl?

- Usually. Why?

- Since you're president of...

Ouch!

- I'm sorry.

- Not you.

Some animal must have dragged it in.

An animal that big, I don't need.

- What about me?

- That depends on how big you are.

Come on.

Stop it. You're drunk.

Stop it!

Oh, damn.

- What do you think you're doing?

- I just thought...

You call that thinking? You may be

the big jock captain of the rowing team...

No, that's not it.

Maybe I have a boyfriend.

I'm sorry.

She always hated me being off

with the team. We have to travel a lot.

So we broke up. Do you have a boyfriend?

Well, there is someone

I like very much, but...

Wendy!

Sh*t.

- What got into her?

- Probably your stupid friend.

Stop. You can't leave us here.

We gotta get out of here.

A head. Oh, my God, help me.

It was a human head.

It's all right, we're getting out of here.

Wait here.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God, John?

- Is he all right?

- Stay back.

- What happened?

- Something's gonna kill us all!

Wendy? Wendy? What was it?

I don't know, but something is going

to kill us, so we gotta get out of here!

Wendy?

Just like a woman to faint.

Take care of her, Howard.

Uh... Miss?

Miss?

Erm... You OK?

Hello?

Carter, you want to give me a hand?

Interesting.

Very interesting.

Hi, I'm Howard Damon from...

Don't scream. It's OK. You're safe.

He's correct. We won't harm you.

I'm Randolph Carter.

- Yes, I know you.

- And this is Howard Damon.

- And you are?

- Tanya Heller.

Of course.

- We gotta get out of here!

- Why?

Something's here. A creature.

It killed John Babcock.

- A creature?

- I'm not lying.

I swear it.

- Joel had this masquerade well planned.

- Something's up there. I swear.

- We believe you. What did it look like?

- I don't know.

- Unnamable perhaps, hmm?

- Cut it out.

I didn't see it. I just ran. It...

- It what?

- What happened, exactly?

There was a scream. That's when

we found John. He was lying there.

His throat had been ripped out.

That's why we ran...

- Hold it. You're positive he was dead?

- I saw him there.

Fraternity boys are known

to pull pranks on new students.

- But he was dead. Bruce...

- His friend?

- Yes.

- Aha. The plot gets thinner.

- John and Bruce were playing tricks.

- They couldn't have.

OK, all right. Just come sit down.

Take it easy.

Maybe Babcock was accidentally killed

or someone we know is doing people in.

- Not Joel.

- If he actually went mad, or thinks he did...

Do you think it could have

been planned to scare us?

It is possible.

-Wendy, my God, she's still up there.

- Wendy Barnes?

Those bastards. I've got to get...

No. I don't rule out the possibility

of there being something else behind this.

We can't leave her up there with them.

I suggest we ponder this a bit longer

before running off.

- Are you coming?

- No.

But keep an eye on her.

And be careful.

Get in there!

No!

Down there.

He was here.

- That bastard.

- Where did you last see Wendy?

It was somewhere around here.

How did you happen to be here?

Uh, someone we know.

Carter and I came here last night.

- You weren't following us, were you?

- No.

Wendy thinks you follow her.

Yeah, well, she's paranoid.

I think she's afraid of men,

despite her facade.

- Maybe.

- I'm not like that.

Afraid of men?

No, paranoid.

I didn't think so.

- Thank you.

- You're welcome.

Bruce?

Bruce?

- Poor Wendy doesn't even know it's a joke.

- This way.

- Joel?

- Wendy?

You are very brave.

Yeah, well, not usually.

I figured Joel might be the one scaring

everybody to get back at Carter and me.

Joel, it's me, Howard!

- Wendy!

- Wendy!

The Necronomicon.

Abdul Alhazred, the mad Arab.

I hope this doesn't sound stupid,

but what do guys see in Wendy?

I think most guys

just see her as a good time.

It's her big tits, isn't it?

I...guess.

Damn them.

What's wrong with the rest of us girls?

Why do all the big girls

always get all the attention?

Howard?

Oh, my God. It's Joel.

It wasn't him.

It wasn't him.

- Oh, my God.

- You mean...

- Tanya?

- Howard?

- Tanya?

- Please get it open.

I can't.

- OK.

- Howard.

Stay calm. Uh...

- Meet me in the hallway.

- Hurry!

Tanya!

I'm coming closer. Talk louder!

Sh*t.

Uh... It's all right. If we just walk in the

same direction, we'll eventually meet, OK?

Tanya?

All right, Tanya, stay where you are.

I'm going to go get Carter.

And we'll come back and get you out, OK?

Tanya?

- Carter, Joel's dead.

- That's to be expected.

Don't you understand?

Joel is dead. There are others.

I know. Look, Howard,

it wasn't just an old tale.

- No sh*t. Well, what was it?

- I don't know yet.

- I have to have more time.

- But Tanya and Wendy are up there.

Get them out.

- Hurry, Howard!

- That's Wendy!

Wendy, hold on!

'How such an abomination

could have been born.

'How my wife suffered as it ate through

her body to reach the light

'and then fled from that light

as an animal from fire.

'l have searched the ancient books of magic,

but have found only a feeble spell

'to trap the evil within these wooden walls.'

My God.

'But the day will come

when this spell is not enough

'and the dying wood

of this house will rot away.

'Thus have I planted trees

around the house

'and hope I will discover the ancient secrets

of the tree spirits to help me.

'But l, Joshua Winthrop, am an old man,

and trees grow very slowly.'

You!

- You're doing this! You killed him!

- Stop it, no.

- You killed him! You're sick!

- I don't know what's going on.

- We gotta get out.

- You come any closer, I'll kill you!

I'm going. I'm going.

Wendy, look, I came down here

to get you out. Honest.

You can't stay down here. It's not safe.

Argh! Why?

You disgusting pervert!

- How could you?

- No!

No!

It hurts.

Howard? Oh, Howard, please.

Of course.

Trees.

Tree spirits.

Genius.

But now...will it work?

If you need it, the lantern's in the library.

Hmm.

Well thought out.

Hmm. I like that one.

Woah!

Carter, we've got to get...

Carter? Carter!

Tanya.

Tanya. Tanya!

Tanya!

Carter!

Hey!

Tanya!

Tanya.

Tanya. Ah. Sorry I left you all alone.

- It's John.

- Yeah, I see. Come on.

I'm sorry I lost you. I should have

come back right away. I'm sorry.

It's OK.

All right, come on. Let's get out of here.

Tanya, come on.

It goes up!

Get some of those boards.

Boards, boards, big boards!

Howard, in here.

Look, it might come up through here.
