" He creates a kind of barrier." " He?" "It." "Williamson." "What did he discover?" "She just..." "She just disappeared from there." "From that thing."

" (Steel) 'Don't tell her.'" "We are all in danger." "Because of him?" " The man on the stair?" " Yes." "That's why you must leave." "You must pack a case and leave now." "The other picture, the big one with Ruth in it." "Could I have it, please?" "We haven't finished with it yet." "Oh." "See... she's..." "Well, I suppose she's the best friend I've ever had."

"Thanks." ""H Williamson Esquire."" "Just exactly what did he discover?" "(Steel) Tricks!" "Tricks." "Tricks, tricks with film, tricks with cameras." "We've been looking for proof." "For evidence of some great photographic discovery." "Mr Williamson, photographer, was no more than a clever conjuror." "Light patterns, multiple images, mirrors." "That was the extent of his talent." "Excuse me." "To someone like Ruth, it was talent enough." "A few cheap tricks to impress the ladies." "At least he bothered to impress them." "He simply used photography, slides." "Nothing spectacular." "He combined them." "He combined pictures of people with pictures of places, but more important, he combined pictures taken at different times." "They never learn, do they?" "About the dangers of mixing the old and the new?" "No." "(Projector hums)" "Excuse me." "(Steel) Combining the old and the new... that was his first trick." " And his last." " Oh, no." "Go sit on the sofa." "Come on." "It's so primitive I don't know why he bothered." "I suppose Ruth was curled up on a cushion... so he felt he had to put on a parade for her." "A kaleidoscope!" "A toy invented in 1817." "There's no way he could have known that he was manufacturing an instrument of such power." "A mirrored prism." "A photograph taken from the multiple image slide." "Now, that... goes in here... like that." "The field of vision is fairly small but it's enough." "Oh, goodness, you are clever." "No wonder Ruth was impressed." "The shorter the focal length of the lens, the more numerous the images." " Is there a film in that camera?" " No." " Take the picture out." " It's safe..." "Take the picture out." "You can never be sure." "It was an accident." "He brought it here... by accident." "And he didn't just bring it here, he invited it here, dragged it here."

"But then he decided to take his apparatus apart." "In here was a force... that had adopted not just one human shape but many." "Trapped and held by their own reflections." "There are 17 mirrors in this house." "Now we know where he's hiding." "We've got him." " No." " What do you mean, "no"?" "No." "Containing him is not enough." "Well, it'll have to do for the time being." "Until we think of a way of sending him back." "Ruth and Williamson were killed by him, he imprisoned them in a photograph and burned them alive."
