Thir13en Ghosts Page #5

Synopsis: Arthur and his two children, Kathy and Bobby, inherit his Uncle Cyrus's estate: a glass house that serves as a prison to 12 ghosts. When the family, accompanied by Bobby's Nanny and an attorney, enter the house they find themselves trapped inside an evil machine "designed by the devil and powered by the dead" to open the Eye of Hell. Aided by Dennis, a ghost hunter, and his rival Kalina, a ghost rights activist out to set the ghosts free, the group must do what they can to get out of the house alive.

If I`m the thirteenth....

You son of a b*tch!

Damn you! You`re nothing, Arthur!

Do you hear? You Ioser!

I`ve dedicated my entire Iife to this.

Every waking moment, for years.

Have you ever shown

that kind of dedication? Have you?

The worId has no time

for IittIe peopIe Iike you.

It needs peopIe

who are wiIIing to do anything!

Anything for greatness.

You don`t have a choice this time, Arthur.

You wiII make that Ieap.

The machine requires

a ghost to be created...

...out of an act of pure Iove.

That`s why I chose you, nephew.

You and your pathetic famiIy.

Make it stop, Dad!

CongratuIations,

Get on your feet.

Come on!
