B: G, is this yours?

B: this creepy ass book I found in the garage

G: Sounds more like M’s to be honest.

B: Oh right, is she upstairs?

G: yrh I think so, don’t worry ill give it her

(g walks upstairs with book and finds M in her room unpacking a box with music playing really loudly)

G: Oi turn that racket off

M: dude you love this song!

G: I know, is this yours?

M: No, but I want it so it is now

G: okay then enjoy your creepy book

M: I will don’t worry

G: (laughs) im off out for a bit, do you need anything?

M: no I’m good

G: ok ill be back in like 2 hoursish

(M waves G as she leaves the room. She opens the book and gets a paper cut that drips blood onto the page, she puts the finger she cut into her mouth to stop it from bleeding, she puts the book on the floor and walks over to the bath room. Camera stays focused on book where you see the blood disappearing into the pages)

-int- ( M is in the bathroom and washes the blood of her hand, the room starts to go blury for her, she falls to the floor and starts convulsing as she gets possessed. The camera acts like a mirror and you see M’s hand reach for the sink, as she stands she looks different and smiles at the camera.)

-off camera- B: M! come help me with these other boxes

(M walks out of the bathroom and towards the living room where you see B struggling with the boxes. CU of door in focus with living room out of focus, M closes the door)

B: hey, you okay? Whats wrong, wait what are you doing? M seriously this isn’t funny stop please wait! – silence –

(Throughout this line, the camera will back away from the door and will show shots of other parts in the house ending with a floor shot of the book open in M’s room. You see her running back into the room covered in blood and picks up the book smiling then stares directly into the camera. Camera shakes and then goes to black)

(M is sitting on the sofa holding the book and staring into nothingness when you hear the door unlock, she looks towards the living room door)

G: I’m back! But I’m having a bath, cause I can since this is our new house. –pauses- Hello?! Anyone here?

(walks past living room and goes into bath room and starts running bath)

G: seriously have you all died while I’ve been out?

(walks into living room)

G: M? Why are you sitting in the dark? – waits for M’s response?- The fuck is wrong with you? Where’s B?

(M slowly starts to stand and smiles sadistically) 

(Cuts to clips of M dragging B’s unconscious body across the back garden, B starts to regain consciousness)

B: -faintly- M please stop.

(M grabs B by the neck and holds her up against the fence and strangles her. Cu of B’s eyes until they close. M throws B over the fence)

(Cuts back to living room with M and G)

M: there was a slight incident, I don’t think B’s going to be back anytime soon.

G: what is wrong with you?

M: Me? Nothing’s wrong with me. I am enlightened towards everything now.

G: I don’t understand.

M: why would you? You are nothing at all. That’s why.

G: The fuck? You need help you psyco.

M:You need more help than I do

(pulls out knife from behind her back)

G: why are you doing this?

M: Don’t worry because you’re my favourite I’ll give you a head start , I’ll count to three.

G: M seriously

M: 1

G: what the fuck?

M: 2

G: (Starts backing out of the room) Your sick!

M: (smiles) 3

G: ( runs toward the bathroom and tries to close the door)

M: (pushes door open and G backs up towards the bath)

G: Can’t we talk about this?

M: There’s nothing to talk about this is it

( Shows G holding a deodorant can behind her back, M starts walking towards her and G attempts to spray her in the eyes with the spray. M ducks out of the way and grabs G by the throat and pushes her into the bath holding her under the water, G struggles and manages to break free of M for a second until she regains her grip and then smashes her head on the sink, you see the blood spilling out into the water)

( M walks back towards the living room and picks up the book again, the shot focuses on her hand and then moves to her face where there is blood coming out of her eyes. She screams and falls to the floor. --- A hand reaches down and picks up the book. She has the same symbol that’s on the fron t of the book on her hand. Cuts to black.
