  • Harry Mason: Wait a second; I’m just a tourist. I came here on vacation. I just got here. I don’t know what happened. I’d like to find out for myself. Have you seen a little girl? Just turned seven last month-Short black hair. My daughter.
  • Cybil Bennet: Sorry. The only person I’ve seen in this town is you.
  • Harry Mason: Where is everybody?
  • Cybil Bennet: I’d tell you if I knew, believe me. But from what I can tell, something bizarre is going on. That’s all I know.
  • Harry Mason: Hmmm.
  • Cybil Bennet: What’s your name?

  • Cybil Bennet: Have you got a gun?
  • Harry Mason: Err, no.
  • Cybil Bennet: Take this, and hope you don’t have to use it. Now listen to me. Before you pull the trigger, know who your shooting. And don’t do it unless you have to. And don’t go blasting me by mistake. Got It?
  • Harry Mason: Yeah, Thanks
  • Cybil Bennet: You’ll do best to stay nearby. I’ll be back as quick as I can.

Something’s gone seriously wrong. Did you see those monsters? Have you ever seen such aberrations? Ever even heard of such things? You and I both know creatures like that don’t exist.
  • Harry Mason: Yeah. Have you seen a little girl anywhere? I’m looking for my daughter. She’s only seven, short black hair.

  • Harry Mason: What’s this.
  • Cybil Bennet: Harry!
  • Harry Mason: Cybil!
  • Cybil Bennet: I’m glad your OK. I shouldn’t have left you. Things are worse than I thought.Its nuts.
  • Harry Mason: What are you doing here, I thought you left town!
  • Cybil Bennet: I saw you go in here, so I followed you. I couldn’t get out. All the roads out of town are blocked. Cars have completely stopped running. And the phones and radios are still out too.
  • Harry Mason: What about my daughter, did you see her!
  • Cybil Bennet: I did see a girl.
  • Harry Mason: Was it Cheryl!?
  • Cybil Bennet: I only caught a glimpse of her through the fog. I went after her,but she vanished. I don’t know about you daughter, but….
  • Harry Mason: And you just let her go!!! Where was it!
  • Cybil Bennet: On Bachman road, she was heading towards the lake. Now don’t get excited. It wasn’t like she ran off exactly. There was no place for her to go. The road has been obliterated.
  • Harry Mason: What, so then Cheryl…
  • Cybil Bennet: It was like she was walking on thin air……….What about you?
  • Harry Mason: Yeah, I met this bizarre woman. Her name is Dahlia Gillespie. Do you know her?
  • Cybil Bennet: Dahlia Gillespie? No. And?
  • Harry Mason: She said something about the town being devoured by darkness. Gibberish like that. Any idea what it means?
  • Cybil Bennet: Darkness devouring the town? Must be on drugs. They sell em to the tourists. The force still can’t figure out whose behind it. No leads have panned out,and the investigation is stalled.
  • Harry Mason: What could drug trafficking have to do with all this?
  • Cybil Bennet: Hmmm. I really don’t know. But maybe that’s the darkness she was talking about. That’s all I can think of.
  • Harry Mason: Hmmm.
  • Cybil Bennet: What’s this?
  • Harry Mason: Just discovered it. Maybe there’s something back there.
  • Cybil Bennet: Lets have a look.
  • Harry Mason: Wait! We don’t know what’s back there. I better check it out first.
  • Cybil Bennet: I’m a cop, I should go.
  • Harry Mason: No! I’m going!
  • Cybil Bennet: All right. I’ll cover you from here. But if anything looks fishy, get back here on the double.
  • Harry Mason: Oh… Cybil?
  • Cybil Bennet: Yes?
  • Harry Mason: Do you know anything about, well, some other world? It’s like a bad dream.
  • Cybil Bennet: What are you talking about?
  • Harry Mason: I’m not quite sure. I try to make sense o it, but my mind goes blank. Everything’s dark there, and I hear sirens in the distance. I met this nurse, Lisa. It’s like I was there, but not really, its all a blur, like some kind of hallucination, you know?
  • Cybil Bennet: I have no idea what your talking about Harry.
  • Harry Mason: Oh, I was just wondering, never mind.
  • Cybil Bennet: Harry, Your tired.
  • Harry Mason: Yeah Maybe.
  • Harry Mason: What’s this? Some kind of altar? I’ve never seen anything like this before. Maybe this is the other church.
  • Harry Mason: Huh! What the…
  • Cybil Bennet: Harry? Are you OK? Harry… Harry.

  • Harry Mason: I’m here now. I was worried too. I’m real happy to see you. Lisa, Can you tell me how to get to the lake?
  • Lisa Garland: The Lake? You take Bachman road.
  • Harry Mason: The roads blocked.
  • Lisa Garland: Well that’s the only way out there.
  • Harry Mason: Are you sure? There’s got to be another way.
  • Lisa Garland: Wait! I just remembered something!
  • Harry Mason: What?
  • Lisa Garland: There’s a Waterworks over by my old elementary school. It’s been abandoned for years. There’s an underground tunnel used for inspections or something. I remember hearing it runs all the way to the lake.
  • Harry Mason: Really? Do you think I can get to the lake from there?
  • Lisa Garland: I’ve never been down there myself, so I’m not positive. Besides, it’s all fenced off to keep people out.
  • Harry Mason: If there’s a chance, I’ve got to try.
  • Lisa Garland: Harry! Don’t go! I don’t want to be alone. It’s so scary I can’t stand it.
  • Harry Mason: How about coming with me? This may not be the safest place in the world either.I can’t promise anything, but I’ll do my best to protect you.
  • Lisa Garland: No. Somehow I feel like I’m not supposed to leave this place. Oh Harry, I’m so scared! I’m Cold!

Harry, Cybil, Dahlia in Boat

  • Cybil Bennet: Harry!
  • Harry Mason: Cybil? How did you get here?!
  • Cybil Bennet: I followed the sewer. Were you the one who cut the fence?
  • Harry Mason: Yeah. I’m glad you made it. I was worried about you.
  • Cybil Bennet: You were worried? Where did you disappear to! Never mind. I want to know what’s going on. What’s with this town?
  • Harry Mason: This may sound really off the wall, but listen to me. You’ve got to believe me. I’ve not gone crazy, and I’m not fooling around. At first I thought I was losing my mind. But now I know I’m not. It’s not me. This whole town. It’s being invaded by the other world. World of someone’s nightmarish delusions come to life. Little by little the invasion is spreading. Trying to swallow up everything in darkness. I think I’m finally beginning to understand what that lady was talking about.
  • Cybil Bennet: Harry. Hold on a minute. I don’t get it.
  • Harry Mason: Look, I don’t understand it all myself. I guess I can’t explain it.
  • Cybil Bennet: Harry, this whole thing has been a major blow to you. You need to rest.
  • Harry Mason: Cybil, I…
  • Dahlia Gillespie: The demon is awakening, spreading those wings!
  • Harry Mason: Dahlia Gillespie…
  • Dahlia Gillespie: Was it not as I said? I see it all now-Yes everything. And with the sacrifice, the demon will swallow up the land. I knew this day would come. And the task is almost finished. There are only two left. To seal this town to the abyss, the mark of Samael. When it’s completed, all is lost. Even in daytime, darkness will cover the sun. The dead will walk and martyrs will burn in the fires of hell. Everyone will die!
  • Harry Mason: So what am I supposed to do; I’ve got to find Cheryl!
  • Dahlia Gillespie: Stop the demon! The demon that is taking that child’s form! You must stop it before your daughter becomes a sacrifice. Before it is too late! Stop it! STOP IT!
  • Harry Mason: What do I do?
  • Dahlia Gillespie: Go to the lighthouse on the lake. And to the center of the amusement park. You are the only hope.
  • Cybil Bennet: Look Harry, I really don’t know what’s going on, but if there’s a chance we can save your daughter, I’m in. I’ll check out the amusement park. You go to the lighthouse.
  • Harry Mason: Cybil… Thanks
  • Dahlia Gillespie: You will need to use it.
  • Harry Mason: Use what?
  • Dahlia Gillespie: The Flauros! Only with that can you stop it.
  • Harry Mason: What about Cybil?

Cybil Saved

  • Harry Mason: Cybil, wake up! Snap out of it. Cybil!
  • Cybil Bennet: Harry, what happened?
  • Harry Mason: Don’t talk; I’ll take care of you.
  • Cybil Bennet: Harry? Why did they take your daughter? Why her?
  • Harry Mason: I don’t know myself, but you know, Cheryl isn’t my biological daughter. I actually haven’t told her yet. She probably knows anyway though. We found her abandoned by the side of the highway. Nobody knew where she came from, and we didn’t have any kids of our own. And my wife was sick and it didn’t look like she was getting any better. So we took Cheryl in.
  • Cybil Bennet: So in that case…
  • Harry Mason: There might be some connection between Cheryl and this town.
  • Cybil Bennet: So what do you do now?
  • Harry Mason: Cheryl is my daughter. I’ll save her no matter what.

Amusement Park, Nowhere

  • Harry Mason: I figured you’d show. Hold it right there! I don’t know who you are or what you’re trying to do. Just one thing. Let Cheryl go, that’s all I ask.
  • Alessa Gillespie: AHH!
  • Harry Mason: Where’s Cheryl, Give me back my daughter!
  • Dahlia Gillespie: We meet at last, Alessa!
  • Harry Mason: Dahlia Gillespie. Where’s Cheryl, where is she!
  • Dahlia Gillespie: Alessa, this is the end of your little game.
  • Alessa Gillespie: Mama!
  • Harry Mason: Could she mean?
  • Dahlia Gillespie: You’ve been a ghastly little pest, haven’t you Alessa? I was careless thinking you couldn’t escape from our spell. But mommy didn’t realize how much you’d grown. That’s why I couldn’t catch you by myself. And what a pity, Yes? Now your half Indebted to this MAN for his help.
  • Harry Mason: Hey, what are you talking about!
  • Dahlia Gillespie: Alessa, my dear little girl… I have one thing left I need for you to do for me.

Lisa’s Mutation

  • Lisa Garland: Harry.
  • Harry Mason: Lisa, what happened? Where’s Alessa and Dahlia?
  • Lisa Garland: Harry, listen, something you said before has been bothering me. I just can’t get it out of my head.
  • Harry Mason: What is it Lisa?
  • Lisa Garland: So I went to look in the basement. Even though I was as scared as hell. Like you said there were these creepy rooms, but nothing really unusual down there. But while I was down there, I got this weird feeling. Like I’ve been there before. Like something happened there but I can’t quite remember it. What was it? Harry! Help me… I’m so scared, I can’t take this.
  • Harry Mason: It’s only a temporary thing. You’re in shock from when you were knocked out. Don’t fret about it, you’ll remember in a while.
  • Lisa Garland: No! You don’t understand!
  • Harry Mason: Wait! Where do you think your going!
  • Lisa Garland: Harry…
  • Harry Mason: Lisa? What’s the matter with you!
  • Lisa Garland: I get it now. Why I’m still alive even though everyone else is dead. I’m not the only one who’s still walking around. I’m the same as them! I just hadn’t noticed it before.
  • Harry Mason: Lisa.
  • Lisa Garland: Stay by me Harry please! I’m so scared! Help me! Save me from them Harry. Please… Harry…
  • Harry Mason: Lisa…

Meeting Around Alessa’s Bed

  • Dahlia Gillespie: Everything is going according to plan, sheltered in the womb.
  • Doctor: But it’s not done yet. Half the soul is lost. That is why the seed lies dormant.
  • Doctor 2: And what soul remains captured in that husk. Is buried deep down in the subconscious
  • Michael Kaufmann: Are you trying to say it wont work? That wasn’t our agreement!
  • Dahlia Gillespie: No, No these are just stalling tactics. If we lend a hand we will be able to get power. Never fear the promise shall not be broken.
  • Doctor: But the power we can draw now will be very weak. Almost nothing. Unless we get the other half of the soul.
  • Dahlia Gillespie: We’ll use a magical spell. Sealing the child’s pain is sure to come.
  • K.Gordon: But that will take time.

Dahlia and Alessa Struggle

  • Dahlia Gillespie: Come, Come along!
  • Alessa Gillespie: No. No I don’t want to.
  • Dahlia Gillespie: Do what mommy tells you now. I just want you to lend me a teeny bit of your power, that’s all.
  • Alessa Gillespie: No! I don’t want to do it.
  • Dahlia Gillespie: It would make everyone happy, and it’s for your own good.
  • Alessa Gillespie: No, but mommy I just want to be with you. Just the two of us, please understand.
  • Dahlia Gillespie: I see. Maybe mommy has been wrong.
  • Alessa Gillespie: Mommy?
  • Dahlia Gillespie: Why didn’t I see this before? There’s no reason to wait. Herein lies the mother’s womb, containing the power to create life. I could have done it all myself!
  • Alessa Gillespie: Mommy?

Good Ending


  • Dahlia Gillespie: I was shocked to learn that the Talisman of Metratron was being used/ In spite of the lost soul returning at last, If we waited any longer, all would have been for naught. It’s all because of that man. We must be thankful to him. Even though Alessa has been stopped, his little girl has to go, what a pity Ahahahahaha!
  • Cybil Bennet: Freeze!
  • Cybil Bennet: What in the devils name!
  • Harry Mason: Dahlia!

  • Dahlia Gillespie: Don’t you see! She’s right there!
  • Harry Mason: That’s absurd!

  • Harry Mason: Why? Why are you doing this?
  • Dahlia Gillespie: It’s been a long seven years. For the seven years since that terrible day. Alessa has been kept alive suffering a fate worse than death.

  • Dahlia Gillespie: Your role is over. We don’t need you anymore. What do you think you can accomplish by coming here?
  • Michael Kaufmann: My, aren’t we getting cocky? Bet you can’t see this and keep your cool.
  • Dahlia Gillespie: Aglaophotis?! I thought I got rid of that!
  • Michael Kaufmann: All I had to do was plant is somewhere for you to find. And you? Well ? it kept you busy. Hah! You’re easy! And there’s more where this came from.
