"Nice." "Aren't you only supposed to do that right after you're married?" "You're, like, a year late." "Yeah, better safe than sorry, though, right?" "If I tripped on the way in, it'd probably bring bad luck." "Wait, is that why people do that?" "Yeah." " You should read less." " Thanks." "Excuse me." "Does this, like, go upstairs?" "Easy, easy, easy." "We don't have nearly enough stuff to fill this place." "Then we'll get more stuff." "This is going well." "Oh, yeah, it's going great." "Hannah, your room's the last one on the right." "Come on, Monty." "This is our new room." "I don't blame you." "So?" "Feels like I've gone from house arrest to solitary confinement." "Come on, look on the bright side." "It's a lot bigger than your old room." "Yeah." "Feels too big." "Yeah, well, that's 'cause you gotta picture your stuff thrown all over the place." "Look at that." "Smaller already." "I don't think Monty likes it." "Aw." "Well, he will." "Takes time." "You realize that we're locked into a 30-year mortgage, right?" "Yes, I am aware of the mortgage." "Just saying that if we wanted to wait till all our stuff's moved in before we start hanging things on the wall, we totally could." "I mean, there's plenty of time." "I just want it to feel like home as quickly as possible, especially for Hannah." "Mmm." "You know, it's not pictures and furniture that make a home, Mel." "It's the people living in it." "Besides, I know you're only hanging up this stuff to get out of actually carrying anything." "Get away from me." "I love you, Hannah." "This is the last of it." "This goes in the living room." "Oh, hey." "Twenty bucks, that thing ends up in the trash." "Okay, I hear you." "Hannah?" "What do you think?" "I think it would look better in the corner." "That's what I thought, but your dad thinks" "He's as far away from an interior designer as you get." "Help me push it back." "There we go." "Much better." "Whoa!" "Careful." "No." "Sounds like your distributor." "What's that?" "Distributor." "It's probably just a loose wire." "Easy fix." "Well, I do like easy." "Easy means cheap." "Ray Walsh." "Hey." "John Alexander." "Nice to meet you." "So, you're the new neighbor." "Yup." "You mind?" "Knock yourself out." "So, you're a locksmith?" "In this economy?" "That, and then some." "Why?" "You need something?" "No, just the realtor suggested we rekey all the locks, so..." "There's something about this neighborhood we should know about?" "No, no, no." "That's just common sense." "Never know who's running around with access to your place." "Say bye to Hannah, Rachel." "Bye, Hannah." "I'm gonna miss you." "You're gonna miss her?" "Good." "What's up, bro?" "Hannah!" "You have a good one!" "Miss you." "Bye!" "Bye." "We're gonna miss you." "We'll miss you so much" "Couldn't help yourself, huh?" "Sound of a bad engine's like my Batsignal, Mel." "Can't just ignore it." "How's he seem?" "Nice?" "Yeah, nice enough." "He's actually gonna rekey our locks for us." "Oh." "First moving casualty, huh?" "Loved that lamp." "Aw, that's a shame." "I know." "Hey, you got 20 bucks on you?" "Huh?" "Let's roll!" "It's better right here, I promise." "You can't put it in front of a vent." "It..." "There's..." "Look, there's space for ventilation to go" "It's right in front of it, though." "Okay, but we don't have to..." "Where are you, anyway?" "It's the only room I could find a wireless signal." "I guess it's gonna be the office." "Until it becomes a nursery." "Don't even joke about that." "I wasn't joking." "Wait, what?" "Are you sure you're not freaking out or anything?" "About us?" "No." "No, we'll be fine." "But it's not like you're gonna find a new boyfriend in suburbia" "Wait, wait." "Tommy, you're breaking up." "And plus..." "Shit." "First dinner in the new house, we gotta toast to that, right?" "Really, Mel?" "I'm fine with water." "No." "See, you can't toast with water." "It's bad luck." "This isn't, like..." "A test, is it?" "It's not a test." "It's a toast." "To us..." "To family..." "To home." "Who were you talking to upstairs?" "Tommy." "How's he doing?" "I guess he's fine." "You know, I think a little distance will be good for both of you." "And I think that you're wrong." "And I think you better-- What's Becky up to this summer?" "Maybe after you've settled in, she can come visit for a few days." "Look, we know how hard this is." "If there was another way, we would-- There was another way." "I could have stayed with any of my friends." "For the whole year?" "Yes." "It's my senior year, Mel." "You really think we're ready to trust you again?" "John." "You're right." "I'm sorry." "Whatever." "Leave that, I'll take it to work." "I love you, Hannah." "Monty, it's okay." "Easy, Monty." "I think you should go a little easier on Hannah." "Easier on her?" "She's a teenager, John." "Yeah, she's a teenager who threw a party that almost destroyed our old house, who got arrested for underage drinking." "Oh, right." "Because you never drank or went to parties as a teenager." "Never got arrested." "Oh." "What are you doing?" "I think you know what I'm doing." "Um, I'm not really feeling this shirt." "What?" "This is my lucky shirt." "Stop." "Nice try, Dad." "Monty?" "What are you doing out there?" "Dad!" "What's the code?" "1-0-6-1-8!" "Are you all right?" "Monty was outside." "So I opened the door." "I don't know how he got there." "That's probably the alarm company." "I'll get it." "You guys go back to bed." "Who ate all the Chinese food?" "I thought you said you guys were gonna leave me some." "Oh, don't look at me." "Have you seen my keys?" "Little nervous for your first day at the library, huh?" "Books are books." "Ooh, have you seen my keys?" "Yes." "Spare's by the front door." "Great." "Thank you." "Bye." "Hey, don't forget, Ray's coming over for the locks." "You're not the only one that drinks milk, you know." "It's fine." "We're family." "Have you seen Monty?" "Nope." "He'll show up." "He's probably just getting acquainted with the neighborhood." "Hey, come with me for a second." "What?" "Did you get me a new car?" "Not exactly." "What is all this stuff?" "Previous owners walked away from their mortgage, so we had to buy the place as is." "I guess this is what they meant by "as is."" "Okay." "But what does this have to do with me?" "Well, since you're grounded for the next two months," "I thought I would give you something to do." "Tell you what, so it's not all bad." "You can keep anything in here you think is valuable." "Aw." "Gee, thanks." "Gotta go." "Hey, think fast." "Shit." "That's the new neighbor." " Let's go say hi." " She's staring." " Let's get out of here." " Go, go." "Go." "So that just happened." "Ms. Alexander?" "I didn't mean to scare you." "No, no, you didn't." "I just..." "I completely forgot you were coming over." "Well, you got a lot on your plate." "Tell you what, don't mind me." "I'll be out of your hair in just a bit." "Any juicy neighborhood gossip we should know about, Ray?" "You know, I couldn't tell you if there was." "Of course, I work all day, and my wife is pretty shy when it comes to socializing." "You know, I did wanna mention these locks." "Cheap and ineffective." "Somebody who knows what they're doing could break into your place in less than a minute." "You really should consider upgrading to the new ones." "This whole rekeying..." "It really only serves for homeowners to feel like they're doing something." "How much are new locks?" "What's the price for your family safety, Ms. Alexander?" "Couple of hundred bucks." "If you're aiming for quality." "Well..." "We'll look into that." "But we do have the alarm system." "Oh, yeah." "I saw that." "It's a good one, too." "At least it was 12 years ago." "Hey, Mel, have you seen Monty anywhere?" "Who's Monty?" "Is that your boyfriend?" "He's my cat." "What are you doing with my camera?" "I saw this on the table and I could not resist." "What's your name?" "Hannah." "Don't you wanna know mine?" "Not really." "Can you not..." "Whoa!" "Oh, oh!" "What are you doing?" "Well, I'm thinking about getting me one of these." "You know, when your mom and I were younger, these things were, like, heavy." "Do you remember that?" "No." "Well, I am a little older." "Do me a favor and tell Mr. Alexander not to worry about any sort of payment just yet." "You all can owe me." "Welcome to the neighborhood." "Oh, shit." "Look, I'm telling you, it could've been one of the movers." "But it not like it's the first time that I've showered since I've been here." "I mean, I would have seen it before." "Then it was your dad, or Melanie." "I mean, who else could it be?" "I don't know." "That's sort of the point." "Something's happening in this house." "What?" "Only two more months." "Only." "All right." "Oh!" "Are your parents home?" "No." "Oh, I see." "Uh, let me guess." "This isn't your brother." "That's disgusting." "I should go." "See ya." "Bye." "Oh, here." "I'm Rosemary Fletcher." "I live a couple of doors down." "Uh, Hannah." "Hi." "So, are you gonna go to Springville next year?" "Yeah." "I'll be a senior." "Oh, a new school your senior year?" "Same thing happened to me." "Your parents aren't in the military, are they?" "No." "No." "My dad was offered a job at the airport." "That's why we moved." "He was out of work for a while." "Well, don't worry about the new school." "A week or two, and it'll be just as unbearable as the old one." "Well, I won't keep you." "Um..." "Please give my best to your parents." "Yeah, I will." "It was nice meeting you." "You, too." "Bye." "Excuse me?" "Hi." "You here to help?" "No." "Well, you might as well get it over with." "I have a question." "It's not, like, gross, is it?" "No." "Okay." "Uh, well, then go ahead and ask." " My friends want..." " Hurry." "Ask her." "They wanna know what it's like living here." "What do you mean?" "You know how every neighborhood has that one creepy house?" "Yeah." "Well..." "You're living in it." "So, is it true?" "Did people really die here?" "They were just trying to get a rise out of you." "See how you'd react." "That's it." "React to what?" "One of the kids in the neighborhood spooked Hannah." "Really?" "How?" "They told me that the family that lived here was murdered in the house." "They said that?" "Yeah." "And I told her that information like that had to be disclosed to potential buyers, and the realtor never mentioned anything, so there's..." "Oh, my God..." "Look, it happened years ago, okay?" "You're kidding, right?" "This isn't funny, Dad." "I'm not trying to be funny." "Unbelievable." "Look, not telling you guys was wrong." "I admit that, okay?" "But it's because I didn't want you to get those stupid thoughts stuck in your heads." "This is a great house, in a great neighborhood that we actually could afford." "And I just..." "I wanted what was best for both of you." "So, what happened?" "I don't know." "I don't know." "Really, I don't." "Look, it happened over 10 years ago." "Two families have lived here since then." "You know, over in Europe, they live in houses that are hundreds of years old, right?" "I'm sure some pretty bad stuff went down in those too." "You don't see people running around" "Well, what about the family that lived here right before us?" "They said that they just disappeared." "Hey, we were nearly at that point not so long ago, remember?" "It happens." "People lose their jobs and walk away from their mortgages all the time." "Hannah?" "Let her go, John." "Can you blame her?" "She just found out her dad is kind of an asshole." "Yeah, well, she's a teenager." "I'm pretty sure she already thought that." "Detectives have just released the names of a family killed in a murder-suicide earlier this week." "Police found the mutilated bodies of Elizabeth Howe and her daughter, Rebecca, in their Springville home." "Elizabeth was found stabbed to death in her daughter's bedroom." "Downstairs, 17-year-old Rebecca had been butchered just feet from the front door." "The suspect, husband and father, Robert Howe, was found hanging in the attic." "Baffled neighbors claim they had never heard Robert and Elizabeth fight, and that the family seemed normal." "Rebecca was a senior at Springville High School and was aspiring to be a photographer." "Monty?" "Monty?" "Monty, come on." "Monty?" "Monty, come here." "Monty?" "Monty?" "Dad!" "Dad!" "I'm coming!" "Dad!" "Hold on!" "I got you, I got you" "There's someone up there." "What are you talking about?" "There is someone up there." "John." "I'll go check it out." "Dad!" "No, please don't go!" "It's okay." "It's okay." "Just calm down." "John!" "John?" "Dad." "Did you see anybody?" "Dad?" "There's nobody up there." "But I saw someone." "You saw what?" "I don't know." "I could hear someone breathing behind me." "Jesus." "Honey, don't you think this is a little-- A little what?" "I don't know." "Don't you think it's a little convenient that she's doing all this right after she finds out what happened here?" "That's why I didn't wanna say anything." "Can I help you inside with those?" "Oh, thanks, Hannah." "That'd be great." "Your house is laid out just like ours." "The wonders of tract housing." "Did you know the family that was killed in our house?" "Such a pretty girl, wasn't she?" "How well did you know them?" "Oh." "Not at all, really." "The dad seemed a bit strange, but you would never think that he was capable of something so terrible." "The wife stayed at home." "We'd wave, she'd wave." "They kept to themselves, and so did we." "Which is why it took her school to discover what happened after the girl was absent for a number of days." "Taught us around here a hard lesson." "You never really know who your neighbors are." "What about the family that disappeared?" "The ones that lived there right before us." "They were, like, eight months behind on their loan." "The Kelly woman down the street heard it was a year and a half." "So, you know." "Then I guess..." "You never heard if they experienced anything..." "Like it's haunted?" "Every kid in the neighborhood thinks that." "I have never heard anyone over 12 seriously talk about it, including anyone who lived there." "Oh." "Okay." "It's tough, moving." "Fucks with your head." "You know, I think it's pretty cool." "Then you can live here." "Yeah." "But over in Europe, the houses are old and have plenty of creepy history but people still live in it." "No, don't." "Don't even say that." "All right." "Well, is now a bad time to ask if you got my message?" "What message?" "I left you a message on your camera." "You did?" "It's not here." "No, it's your camera?" "Like that's a big surprise." "No, seriously." "Uh, I should go." "Hey, your camera will turn up." "It always does." "Okay." "Okay." "Everything all right?" "Uh..." "It's not great." "Know what I think?" "I think you need to get out of this house." "Yeah." "No kidding." "I mean, more, like, for the afternoon." "I just want you to know that you can talk to me about things." "Yeah, but what's the point?" "Neither of you believe me." "About what?" "The house?" "Yes." "Stuff disappears or moves." "Doors close and open, and those weird noises..." "What weird noises?" "Like creaking and..." "Whistling." "So you've heard it too." "That doesn't mean the house is haunted." "Hannah" "No, no, but something's going on and it feels wrong." "You don't feel it?" "I think there's an explanation for everything." "Oh, you sound just like Dad." "Hello?" "False alarm?" "Anything missing?" "No." "But that doesn't mean Ray wasn't in here." "Come on, Mel, you heard what the security company said, they probably just need to adjust the sensitivity of the alarm" "I don't trust him." "He basically said he could break into our house to my face." "Was that before or after he tried to sell you on the new locks?" "Well, it worked." "I want new locks and not from him." "Well, it's a little more expensive than just rekeying, you know." "We just got hit with a ton of bills, maybe in a couple of months" "No!" "Now." "What's the price of your family's safety, John?" "Jesus, Ray." "Is my work not good enough for you, Mr. Alexander?" "My wife and daughter are just a little bit uncomfortable." "Because of something I did?" "I don't know, Ray." "What did you do?" "Are you accusing me of something?" "'Cause that would not be a good idea." "Is that a threat?" "No." "That's a warning." "Take care, now." "Yeah, you too." "Asshole." "Huh." "How'd that get..." "Here we go." "You're upstairs." "I just wanna be the first to go on record that I love you, Hannah Alexander." "Please don't show this to any of my friends." "Okay?" "Thanks." "Bye." "Who's Monty?" "Is that your boyfriend?" "He's my cat." "What are you doing with my camera?" "Well, I saw this on the table and I could not resist." "This is where they eat." "This is where they sleep." "This is where she sleeps." "Ray!" "So, the house is still listed for sale by the bank." "Cops are on their way to check it out now." "What does that mean?" "It means that they were squatters." "What did they say about the video?" "They're gonna go over it, see if they can prove it was him." "This guy was in our house, John." "While we slept." "I know." "You were right." "I'm sorry, honey." "Things were actually happening, and I just didn't listen." "I just wanted it to work." "I want it to work." "Look, I'm just glad that we stopped it before it escalated into anything worse." "Are you sure it's over?" "Absolutely." "We won't see Ray anymore." "Trust me." "We should go." "We will, darling." "I just gotta do something first." "Hey." "Sorry, didn't mean to scare you." "That's okay." "You know, your mom used to sleep-punch me." "What?" "Sleep-punch?" "Yeah." "Anytime I'd try and wake her up, or startled her somehow, she'd start flailing her arms around and smack me right in the face." "Funniest thing is, she wouldn't even wake up." "She packed quite a punch." "Here." "I thought I still had two months left." "Eh." "Time off for good behavior." "Hey." "I love you, kiddo." "I love you, too." "Hey, Han." "Last-minute change." "We're going to the club with my dad, and it's formal." "No jeans." "Great." "Yeah." "These'll do the job." "Fun." "Oh, shit." "I'm sorry." "Oh, my God I'm sorry, I'm sorry." "Don't make this-- What are you doing here?" "Wait." "Where did you park?" "Uh, down the street." "And don't worry, I'll even sneak out the back." "Okay." "She looks happy, at least." " If she only knew, right?" " Yeah." "I felt bad throwing it away." "Hmm." "Look, she kinda looks like you." "No, she doesn't." "Who is that?" "Who?" "Him." "Hannah, I'm home!" "Oh, shit." "Mmm..." "What should I do?" "He'd freak out if he knew you were here." "Yeah, uh..." "It's cool." "I'll hide." "The closet." "No, no, Tommy." "Are you crazy?" "No." "Yeah, it's fine." "You can't hide in my closet." "Come on." "They won't see me, I swear." "I'm sorry, you have to go." "All right." "I'll come back tomorrow." "Mmm-hmm." "Hopefully my car can take the drive." "I'll stall him while you sneak out." "Hey, Dad, do you see how clean the garage is?" "Let's take a look." "Do you want a sweater or something?" "No." "So, we're actually doing this, huh?" "You guys look nice." "Thank you." "You'll be okay?" "She'll be fine." "Plenty of leftovers in the fridge." "And I plan on faking food poisoning around 9:00, so we won't be home too late." "Call if you need anything." "I'll be fine." "You guys have fun." "Okay." "Bye." "No Tommy." "Bye." "You hit him with them shoes." " Ain't I right, this time?" " You're silly." "You think I'm silly 'cause I said about the stick?" "All I was trying was to make you say," ""No, it wasn't no stick." "It was my shoes."" " 'Cause I know what it was." " You lie all the time." "All the time." "How come I got those shoes then?" "Where did you get them?" "I just walked right into the apartment, right into your room, and took 'em." "Just more lies, 'cause I burned those shoes." "I put them down the incinerator and burned them." "Nobody's got them." "You better give me those shoes." "They're mine." "Give them back to me." "You'd better give them back to me, Leroy!" "I'm keeping them shoes!" "Congratulations." "You're back to being grounded again." "Dad, no." "I can't stay here any longer." "Hey, this is our house now, Hannah." "Get used to it." "Dad, please!" "If you would just listen to..." "Huh." "David." "Leave it!" "Wait!" "Wait!" "Wait." "Oh, it's in here somewhere." "Shit!" "Where is it, where is it, where is it?" "Got it." ""Forever together." "Lost love."" ""The patient is well on his way to having a severe case" ""of extreme agoraphobia." ""He tends towards violent reactions." ""The patient also suffers from occasional homicidal ideations."" "David's the boy in the window." "She had a brother." "So, you think the Howes had a son, but no one knew because..." "Because he had a fear of open spaces." "He never left the house." "They were gonna commit him, but he..." "Okay... "He reacts violently to new stimuli."" "See?" "He didn't want that." "He killed his family." "They wanted to take him away from his home, this house..." "And that's what set him off." "Honey, we're gonna call this hospital and find out what they know." "Okay?" "It's doubtful they'll tell us anything." "But if they do, we'll call the police." "All right?" "We're gonna take a look at this, sweetie." "Where's that phone number?" "I'm gonna call the hospital." "Daddy!" "He's here!" "Dad!" "Who's here?" "Melanie!" "Melanie, he's here!" "Who?" "Who?" "He's here!" "He's downstairs!" "Oh, my God!" "John!" "Who?" "David!" "There's someone here!" "Call the police!" "Go!" "Dad!" "No!" "Dad!" "I'll call the police." "You hit the panic button!" "Police!" "Sir?" "Are you all right?" "Sir, can you hear me?" "Yeah." "Just hang on." "Is there anybody in here?" "Come out where I can see you." "With your hands up!" "Lock him down." "Detective Pascal would like to see you upstairs." "Yeah." "Ugh." "This T-Shirt, does it look familiar?" "Yeah." "Oh..." "Well, looks like, uh, this guy has been living in your attic for quite a long time." "You'd be surprised how often it actually happens." "Don't worry." "It's over." "So, there's a motel not too far from here if you guys wanna" "Yes." "Absolutely." "Let's get him prepped." "Put a line in." "Yeah." "Hey, this is Tommy." "Leave a message." "BP dropping." "Blood pressure's dropping." "We're losing him." "We'll be downstairs." "Hannah?" "Han?" "John?" "John?" "John, where's Hannah?" "What do you mean?" "She's not downstairs with you?" "She was in her room." "I thought she came downstairs, but she's not here." "Hannah!" "Hannah?" "Hannah?" "Sweetie, where are you?" "Hannah, can you hear me?" "Come on, Hannah, answer your phone." "She's not outside." "It's going straight to voicemail." "Oh, Jesus Christ." "It's coming from over there." "I hear it." "It sounds like it's coming from over here." " Hannah?" " Hannah?" "Hannah?" "Hannah, can you hear us?" "Hannah?" "Hannah, are you in there?" "Dad!" "Dad!" "Hannah!" "Hannah!" "Dad!" "Hannah!" "Can you hear me?" "Mel!" "No!" "Hannah!" "Hannah!" "Hannah, talk to me!" "Help!" " She's here!" " I hear her." "She's here." "I can hear her!" "Dad!" "Hannah!" "John!" "Dad!" "Oh, my God!" "Go get Hannah!" " Mel!" " Hannah!" "Hannah!" "Mel!" "Mel!" "Hannah!" "Mel!" "I'm over here!" "Hannah!" "Help me!" "Hold on!" "I'm gonna get you out of there!" "I promise!" "I promise!" "Mel, please!" "Get me out of here!" "All right." "I want you to stand back, okay?" "No, I can't!" "I can't!" "Help!" "Mel!" "I'm coming!" "I promise, I'm gonna get you!" "Break through this wall and get you out of here!" "I'm gonna get you out!" "Help me get through!" "Han, I just need you to calm down, okay?" "Hannah!" "John!" "Dad!" "I found her!" "I can't get her out!" "Mel, he's coming!" "Can you make it up to the attic?" "Yes!" "Do it now!" "Hannah?" "Dad!" "Hannah!" "Where are you?" "Hannah!" "Hannah!" " Melanie!" " Hannah!" "I'm here!" "Just keep going!" "Get to the attic, okay?" "Your dad's gonna meet you there." "How do I get to the attic?" "Hannah." "Hannah!" "Hannah!" "Hannah, I can see you!" "I can see you, Hannah!" "Melanie!" "Melanie." "You're gonna be all right." "Melanie!" "No!" "Mel!" "No..." "Hannah!" "Dad!" "Hannah, follow my pounding!" "Follow the sound!" "He's coming!" "No!" "Hannah!" "Come on!" "Move!" "Come on." "I got you, I got you!" "Come on!" "I got you." "I'm gonna get you out of here." "Go downstairs." "Dad!" "The door's shut!" "Get out of the way!" "Okay, go!" "Get down there!" "Go!" "Move!" "Run!" "Go!" "Dad!" "Dad!" "No!" "Daddy!" "No!" "No!" "No!" "No!" "No!" "No!" "No!" "No!"
