"Dad, I need to know." "It was a freak thing." "One of the umbilical cords got twisted around his throat." "My Cord?" "So, my brother died?" "Is that why Mom killed herself?" "Your mother was clinically depressed." "Period." "The hard truth is that some people come into this world less equipped for life than others." "Like my brother?" "He was never your brother, Case."

"How did you know that?" "I used to have a twin brother as well." "I can sense it sometimes in others." "Certain kind of manner." "I just recently found out about my brother." "And that's sort of what led me here today." "My mother's name was Janet Beldon." "She passed away a few years ago, but I found this in her things." "Did you know my mother?" "No, I'm..."

"She's crazy." "She probably has Old Timer's!" "No." "No, she knew something." "Come on, get real." "What if she does?" "She doesn't!" "Okay, so, you had some weird dreams." "And then this thing happens with your eye, and then you found out you would have had a brother." "Believe me, that alone is enough to send me into therapy." "But that's all we're talking about here." "Just some weird coincidences." "Yes." "No, what about the Newtons' baby dying?" "What about the Newtons' baby?" "And what Matty said?" "He said "Jumby," Romy." "The nickname that my parents used for my brother." "You're the superstitious one here." "You tell me there's not something really going on." "Because you know there is." "I'm not crazy, Romy." "But ever since Matty freaked out that night, I..." "I've been seeing things." "What kinds of things?" "Do you believe in ghosts?" "You know I do."

"CASEY:" "I do." "(SIGHS)" "Did it mean anything to you?" "It was the hospital where my mom died." "Beyond that door, that's where she hung herself."

"I'm sorry, I was just so startled." "Your mother never told me you were a twin." "But when I saw your eyes today, I knew." "The boy in that reflection, that was your great uncle." "My twin brother, Barto." "He died in 1944, when we were together in Auschwitz." "We were taken to see the doctor in charge." "A man who was obsessed with twins." "He was very handsome." "Very polite." "We thought we'd been rescued." "The Nazis believed that twins could unravel the mysteries of genetics." "They conducted experiments on us." "Horrible experiments that blurred the line between science and occult." "One of their obsessions was eye color." "By trial and error, they attempted to fabricate blue eyes from brown." "The injections were painful." "Some caused blindness." "Some caused death." "Two days later, he came back, except..." "It wasn't really Barto." "A doorway had been opened." "Something else was inhabiting his body." "Something else?" "Have you ever heard of a dybbuk?" "Mmm-mmm." "It is the soul of a dead person that has been barred from entering heaven." "So it endlessly wanders the borderlands between the worlds, trying to find a new body." "Some people are doorways." "Yes." "Especially twins." "Because what is a twin but another kind of mirror?" "And mirrors have always been doorways to the other world." "What happened to your brother?" "From the moment he came back, I knew it wasn't Barto." "A dybbuk had crossed over and taken his place." "It had used his body to enter our world." "I killed it" "It's been trying to find its way back ever since." "Casey." "The dybbuk's blood is on our hands now." "This thing, this entity, it tried to take hold of your unborn twin!" "And when it couldn't have him, it turned its gaze to the other child." "Me." "(SIGHS)" "It's been circling you ever since you were born, Casey." "CASEY:" "Why now?" "Why didn't this start happening before?" "It takes time for it to make its way from the other side." "It enters our world in stages." "Always it inhabits the helpless creatures first, from insect to animal, slowly making its way up the ladder of life forms." "But a twin is what it most desires." "How do I stop it?" "Your mother asked the same question." "I told her about the Sefer ha-marot, the Book of Mirrors, which includes the rites of exorcisms." "There is a rabbi who may be able to help you." "Joseph Sendak." "Find him." "Please exercise care when handling the manuscript." "Thank you." "RICK:" "I guess most of you know me." "Each day is a struggle, you know?" "(RICK SIGHS)" "I keep trying to do that searching thing." "Make a moral inventory of myself." "Be fearless." "Well, that's all we can ask." "Thank you for sharing, Rick." "All right, it looks like we're about finished for the day." "We'll pick up where we left off next week." "If I'm not mistaken, Henry's up to bat on donut duty." "Go easy on us, will you, Henry?" "Throw in a few low-fat muffins." "Excuse me, are you Rabbi Sendak?" "Yes." "Can you read this?" "Well, the right hand text is Hebrew, so I can." "It's from the Kabbalah." "Jewish mysticism." "How did you come by this?" "Look." "I know that this is gonna sound crazy, believe me." "But I need an exorcism performed." "I'm being haunted by something." "I've..." "A dyb..." "A dyb..." "A dybbuk." "Yes." "A dybbuk." "Yes." "Well, as for dybbuks, there really is no such thing, Miss Beldon." "At least, not outside the realms of folklore." "You have to understand, back in the Middle Ages, things like spirits and demons were really just a catchall for conditions people weren't capable of properly diagnosing." "Mental illness, as we know it, didn't exist back then." "I'm not mentally ill, okay?" "What's happening to me is real." "Even assuming it is, what you're asking is beyond my expertise." "I've never performed an exorcism before," "I wouldn't even know where to begin." "Well, you could read the book." "It would tell you what to do." "And then what?" "For a religious ceremony to be effective, the person asking for help has to actually believe in the spiritual aid they're calling upon." "And I'm guessing you don't believe." "Look." "(SIGHS)" "Maybe I could do a little research." "I could make some calls." "Okay." "What about your book?" "Can you translate it for me?" "(SIGHS)" "Listen." "My life depends on this." "So please." "Please help me." "SOFI:" "Take this." "It is the hand of Miriam." "It may offer some protection." "Stay away from mirrors." "If you have any in your home you must destroy them." "Burn the pieces of broken mirror and then bury what remains." "Bells, wind chimes, these are signs that the spirit is near." "(CHIMING)" "You must be vigilant, Casey." "It will seek to isolate you." "To weaken your resolve." "Can it be killed?" "It's already dead." "The best you can hope for is to drive it back again." "There's no use in trying to understand it, Casey."

"Everything that has been happening is real." "It's some kind of ghost or demon or something." "And it tried to take over my brother, and that's why my mother went crazy."

"I think that we were always just trying to pretend like it was, but it's not." "I like that." "That's good." "That's what I need to see." "CASEY:" "Why did you change your mind?" "You know, I can't say that I truly believe in what's afflicting you, but I think you believe." "And if you're convinced an exorcism is what you need, then who am I to turn you away?" "If you'd seen what I saw last night, you wouldn't have any problem believing." "So, why are we meeting here?" "Because we need backup." "I may be a man of God, but I'm not a miracle worker." "Good to see you, Joe." "This is Casey." "Hey, nice to meet you." "Mark." "Hey, Mark." "And this is Arthur Wyndham." "He is an Episcopal priest and a very, very dear friend of mine." "So you've done exorcisms?" "No, I studied the phenomenon, I did my dissertation on it back in college." "Just wait a second." "I'm not looking for a Christian exorcism here." "Fair enough." "But there are certain elements to these kind of rites that are pretty common to virtually all religions, and it's these elements that I'm familiar with." "You gotta understand, this thing that's after you, if it exists, it predates religion." "It probably predates mankind." "It's not as if there's one kind of demon that is vulnerable to Jewish prayer, or another that's allergic to Christian or Muslim." "It doesn't actually work that way." "So the words in that book, they can't help me." "No, no, no." "On the contrary, I think that it can, but not in a way that you might think." "Now you, you may not believe, but your mother and your grandmother did." "And it's because of their belief that these words give us the best shot at driving this thing out." "I've translated what's in the book, so I'll be leading the invocation and Arthur and a few others will be assisting us." "Yeah." "Yeah, but before we get started, there's a few formalities that we have to get out of the way." "Can I see your IDs, please?" "I gotta verify that you're of legal age to consent to this." "All right." "You kidding?" "No." "No?" "Not kidding." "These are the forms, actually." "I don't know if they're legally binding, but we're in murky waters here, just in case something does go wrong." "Thank you." "Thank you." "Great." "So when do we do this?" "Tomorrow night." "Sabbath." "At your Synagogue?" "Oh, no, no, no." "Given how unorthodox this all is, I think we'll find another venue." "Yeah, yeah. ls there somewhere that is particularly negative to you?" "Somewhere that you may have incurred a lot of pain?" "Hell of a place to get religious, Sendak." "Cheery, isn't it?" "This is Rick Hesse, he's an EMT." "I thought it would be a good idea to have him here, just in case." "RICK:" "Nice to meet you." "As for the other volunteers, they've all been through some kind of hardship and they're willing to help." "Now, typically, a Jewish exorcism rite involves 10 people." "Why 10?" "10 fingers, 10 commandments." "10 is also the number of the Sephiroth, which are the known attributes of God." "The idea is that these 10 form a protective circle around the afflicted person." "Yeah, once we get going, Casey will stand in the middle of the circle," "Sendak will read the original text in Hebrew, and the rest of you will follow me in English, call and response format." "Now the heart of the ceremony is Psalm 91." "Yoshev B'seter, the Psalm of Protection." "At the beginning and the end of the invocation, I'll sound the shofar, which is an animal horn used in religious ceremonies." "In this case, the sound is intended to shock the spirit hiding within the victim." "Once the spirit is more compliant, then we can start drawing it out." "That's when the rest of us are the most vulnerable." "It wants Casey, but it will take any port in the storm." "And remember, no matter what happens, once we've begun, the exorcism must be finished." "Any questions?" "Yeah, why are they bringing in a gurney?" "The gurney is for Casey's protection as well as ours." "Sometimes people thrash out, just a precaution." "That's all." "All right then." "Let's get started." "Are you sure you wanna go through with this?" "I just want this to be over." "My name is Arthur Wyndham, and this is the video record of the attempted exorcism of Casey Beldon." "We have the permission of the ecclesiastical authority who are praying for us." "Everyone participating tonight is here of their own free will, including Casey." "Agreed?" "Yes." "Just for the camera." "Yes, this is what I want." "Now, if..." "And this is a big if." "But assuming a spirit actually manifests itself on your person, it may take the shape of a kind of bulge beneath the flesh." "Now try not to be alarmed by this." "Even though we're dealing with a spiritual phenomenon, the entity still needs to be housed in some degree of physical mass." "So if your body produces a reaction like that, it means what we're doing is working." "I understand." "All right." "Okay, so we're gonna place this block in your mouth, so you don't bite on your tongue." "Let's just get on with this." "Okay." "(HORN SOUNDING)" "The circle is now made whole and sacred."
