"I feared the nights..." "Feared sleeping..." "Night after night..." "It got worse and worse." "Sometimes I was afraid to close my eyes..." "For that's when they came the nightmares!" "But new it's different..." "Now it feels as if the dreams become reality..." "As if!" "never wake up." "Are you okay?" "Are you quite sure you're not hurt?" "What, no..." "That's not my blood!" "Before you clean yourself the technicians will take some samples." "I though we could balk a bit, before they arrive." "Is that okay with you?" " Coffee?" " No thanks." "Okay Jenny, what actually happened in the house?" "I don't know..." "We just needed to get away..." "Actually I felt bad about leaving." "When we arrived on Friday everything was normal, but..." "It started on Saturday, during the party." "The WW?" "YES..." "Enough, let's change the tune!" "So you were five people in the house?" "YES..." "There was Cissi and Phillip ...and myself and Jakob." "Why is she dating such a flat tire?" "Watching paint dry is more fun." "That's only four people, who was the fifth?" "I believe her name was Stina..." "I'd never met her before." "She started a lame discussion   which completely killed the mood." "Life's too short for dead ends..." "In a relationship it's important to be free to experiment." "To?" "irt and see others." "You're talking about sex." "I don't agree with that." "You can't just jump into bed with anybody!" "It's different." "For me, sex and love belong together..." "I could never accept my boyfriend sleeping around." "Remember high school?" "Nobody was faithful..." "Everyone fucked everyone   but that was completely okay!" "Certainly not in our class." "And Rickard from the other class?" "He dated 2-3 girls at the same time." "Remember the prom where he danced with Susanne, made out with Helena,   and went home with Annicka, while he was engaged no Anette!" "Had he been my boyfriend, I'd have chopped off his dick." "Could we change the subject?" "Well, anyone want a cigarette?" " Sure, why not.." "Stupid cow, what dos she know about real life?" "Why were you provoked by Stina?" "She irritated me..." "I don't know, perhaps because Jakob found her interesting..." "And Jakob is your boyfriend?" ""O..." "Though I guess Cissi hoped for that no happen." "That's probably why she asked me along." "Well, Jakob is really nice, but it didn't work between us." "But weren't you dating?" "No, we never got that far..." "Perhaps I misunderstood the situation..." "Why would Cissi hook me up with Jakob   if her friend was that into him?" "Are you sure you don't want some coffee?" "Are you and Cissi related?" "Yes, we're cousins." "Philip, Stina and Jakob are her old classmate." "You said earlier that you didn't really want to he there..." "No, I didn't want no return..." "Return?" "What do you mean?" "I once lived there... in the house." "But as I understand it, the house belongs no Cissi's family... ." "Her mother, In he exact." "Yes, but about ten years ago we lived there... all year round." "But then Cissi's mom inherited it from her sister." "...And that's your mother?" "YES..." "After what happened with my mom and dad..." "I wasn't old enough to take over the house." "And what happened, Jenny?" "Is that you, dad?" "And that happened in the house, ten years ago?" "YES..." "No wonder you find the place traumatic." "Why did you even return?" "We've talked about it, my psychiatrist and I..." "In therapy..." "Perhaps it was a good idea to confront my demons..." "But he was a bit skeptic." "So you're in psychotherapy?" "Yes, but not so often anymore..." "It doesn't feel like it's helping." "But you chose to return anyway?" "I guess I felt forced..." "Partly because of the thing with Cissi - and Jakob." "But also, Cissi's mom wanted my decision about the house." "Cissi's family had only used the house in the summer." "The plan was for me no have the house when I'm old enough." "It's a decision I've delayed on purpose." "Had I taken it over, I'd probably have sold it immediately." "Let's return to the party." "The intention was to hook you up with Jakob?" "But it didn't turn out that way, you said." "No, other things distracted me." "I started feeling we weren't alone out there." "Do you have a boyfriend?" ""Oh, Why do you ask?" "No reason." "Just curious." " What was that?" " What?" "Hush, don't you hear?" "Did you see that?" "I think I saw someone!" "You're imagining." "It's six miles to the nearest neighbor." " Come back inside girls, we're missing you." " Well, I'm going inside." "We'll be right back." "What's the matter with her?" "She's acting real strange." "I KNOW, but she's been having a tough time." "Frankly, why did she have no come?" "I promised my mom, it's a family thing." "Surely she's not your responsibility just because she's your cousin?" "It was the condition for borrowing the house." "But what happened to her?" "For many years, her mom had a nervous condition." "No job, lots of pills." "It was complete hell." "Finally her dad got fed up." "He started an affair with another woman." "Her mom found out." "When he came home from work, she had a kitchen knife ready." "Fucking hell!" "54 shah wounds." "Totally insane." " Did Jenny see it?" " Vs, unfortunately." "Then what happened?" "Her mom was locked up at an asylum, where she still remains." "Jenny was placed in psychiatric care." "And has refused to see her mom since then." "What a terrifying story." "The situation makes sense now." "The patient unzipped his pants and slammed his dick on the table." "The doctor put on his glasses and examined it." "He then concluded:" "You don't seem at all impotent, Sir." "Really?" "But my girlfriend insists my dick is important!" "So it was exactly like in your dreams?" "I've had nightmares, sometimes even by day." "But I was sure someone was there." "Someone who watched my every move." "And none of the others saw or heard this uninvited visitor?" ""O..." "Thanks." "If we look further back..." "How was your relationship with your parents before this happened?" "I loved my dad..." "And my dad loved me..." "More than anything." "...And your mother?" "You're filthy." "Come here." "She was never there for me..." "It was always dad." "He cooked cleaned house and went to work." "For long periods it was just him and me..." "Mom was frequently away at the psychiatric ward." "And when she was home, she usually remained in bed." "So you mainly grew up with your dad?" "Yes, more or less." "It was probably no normal childhood." "Because of my mom, I couldn't bring anyone home." "It would've been too embarrassing..." "Yes, she was diagnosed with a major depression, it says." "Yes, the depression started after she gave birth." "They should've started treating her a bit sooner." "A postpartum depression which started when you were horn?" "YES..." "Did you know she was that sick?" "I knew she never talked with anyone and the bathroom cabinet was full of medicine with her name on it." "Did your parents argue a lot?" "Yes, at the end they did." "But dad tried to shield me from it." "Sometimes it felt as if mom was jealous of dad and me." "As if we weren't allowed to he happy if she wasn't." "She was terrible when that mood caught her." "We'd find out later just hm terrible it could get." "Did you hate your mother?" "I don't know..." "Probably not, she was my mom." "But I didn't love her." "And your mother is still locked up, for the tenth year?" "YES..." "And who told you that?" "They bold me when they put her away, everyone said it!" "Then I have no inform you that your mother was released two years ago." "What!" "Are you joking?" "See for yourself, it says so right here." "Released..." "But where does she live?" "It doesn't say, but we can find out through the Citizens Registry." "I knew it!" "Then it was her inside the house!" " Good Lord, why are you up?" " I needed a cigarette." "I just can't be bothered going outside to smoke." " No, please don't go outside!" " what do you mean?" "Was that you trying to open the bathroom door?" "No, it wasn't me." "You seem upset?" "I just had a strange feeling." "Ifs not easy being back, huh?" "No." "It was probably a bad idea." "Is it the house itself, or the memory?" "Wasn't this the kitchen where..." "Yes, but it locks completely different now." "Frankly, I don't remember the house." "I've mentally blocked it out." " Have you seen your old room?" " No, I'd rather not." " That makes sense." " It's actually not so bad..." "I can hardly find my way around here anymore." " Should we clean up outside?" "No, tomorrow, I'm too tired now." "Hey, by the way, how'd it go with Jakob?" "Nothing happened." "He's sweet and kind, but   he seems more into your friend Stina." "Stina?" "No, that I can't imagine." "If you're interested you have to make an effort." "I know for sure that he thinks you're really nice." "Well, we'll see tomorrow." "It's about time you let yourself off the hook and start enjoying life." "YES..." "No, I'm tired, I'll go upstairs to lie down." "Sweet dreams, then." "See you tomorrow." "Coming?" "They could've left the light on!" "Don't wake up everybody!" "Who left that hag there?" "Those are my things!" "Strange..." "Wait a moment." "Want something no drink?" " Let's split a beer." " Okay." "What was that?" "Where?" "Outside the window... like someone walking..." "Probably just a bird." "A bird in the dead of night?" "Go have and look!" "I can't see anything." "Don't you think it's warm here?" "What was that!" "?" " Wait here." " I'm not going anywhere!" "What's wrong?" "Now the light doesn't work." "Can you close the door?" "But then I can't see anything." "But it gets so cold." "Okay." "Em" "Philip?" "It's not funny anymore!" "Shop hiding, it's not funny anymore!" "Hi, it's Cissi, leave a message if you..." "Fucking shit!" "TYPICAL!" "What the hell?" "What is happening!" "?" "Hello, anyone there?" "What the hell is happening!" "?" "I hate you, mommy!" "Stow!" "She's inside, I think it's my mom!" "Drop the knife!" "Knife... what knife?" "And your mother, what's her role in all this?" "I..." "I don't know." "And your cousin and her friends, Cissi, Stina, Jakob and Philip?" "You mean that you..." "The problem with your story, Jenny   is that they aren't dead..." "What?" "But I saw them die!" "I don't know what you saw, but all four are sitting outside." "They are alive and well." "They are a bit confused, wondering what happened." "We'll be finished in a moment." "It was your friends who called us..." "You were running madly around the yard in those clothes,   holding a big knife." "They tried no reach you, but you were like in a trance." "Reach me?" "But they were all missing until I found them!" "All witness accounts, except yours, add up   all the way until last night after the party." "Last night?" "But I was alone in the house yesterday!" "Yesterday was Saturday, and that's when you had the party." "So let me try to sum up..." "You are five kids, partying in an isolated house." "Drinking way boo much booze." "Next morning your friends find you,   running around in bloody clothes, swinging a big knife." "Thankfully, nobody's been hurt or died." "Only one question remains before we can go home..." "The blood, Jenny, where does the blood come from?" "...Now it feels as if the dreams are becoming reality." "...Your mother was released two years ago." "...then it was her inside the house!" "...Did you hate your mother?" "Mara:" "According co Nordic mythology, a supernatural, female creature   who haunts you at night and is the cause of all bad dreams." "Hence the word:" "Nightmare."
