Ep 2
INT. EMMA'S BEDROOM - NIGHT
Emma tosses and turns in her bed, clearly disturbed by nightmares. The camera zooms in on her sweating face, capturing her fear. She suddenly wakes up with a gasp, sitting upright and breathing heavily. She glances around her dark room, illuminated only by the moonlight filtering through the window.
Emma
Just a dream… it was just a dream!
She looks at her bedside table where the old journal lies, the same one they found in the school. Hesitantly, she opens it. The pages are now filled with drawings of children playing, but one page stands out. It's blank, except for a single sentence written in red crayon: "Help us, Emma."
Emma
What do you want from me?
INT. SCHOOL HALLWAY - DAY
Lucas and Jason walk down the school hallway, heading towards their lockers. They talk about their weekend plans, trying to shake off the memory of the abandoned school.
Lucas
Maybe we should go to the arcade instead of ghost hunting next time.
Jason
Yeah, that sounds a lot safer.
As they approach their lockers, they notice a group of students gathered, whispering and pointing. Lucas opens his locker and freezes. Inside, drawn in red crayon, are the same cryptic symbols from the journal.
A chilling whisper fills the air, heard only by Lucas and Jason.
The boys exchange worried glances, realizing the haunting is far from over.
INT. EMMA'S LIVING ROOM - NIGHT
Emma, Lucas, and Jason sit in Emma's living room, the journal open on the coffee table. They discuss the recent events, trying to piece together what’s happening.
Lucas
It’s not over. The spirits are still trying to reach out to us.
Jason
But we did the ritual. We set them free, didn’t we?
Emma
Maybe we missed something. There’s got to be more to this.
Emma flips through the journal, searching for clues. She stops at a page with a drawing of the school, focusing on a hidden room in the basement.
Emma
Look, there's a room we didn’t see before. We need to go back.
EXT. ABANDONED SCHOOL - NIGHT
The trio stands outside the school once more, armed with flashlights and determination. The atmosphere is heavy with tension as they enter the building.
Jason
Let’s get this over with.
INT. SCHOOL BASEMENT - NIGHT
They carefully navigate through the dark basement, following the journal’s instructions. They find a hidden door behind a stack of old desks and manage to pry it open.
INT. SECRET ROOM - NIGHT
The room is small and filled with old toys and children's belongings, covered in dust. In the center of the room is a small, makeshift altar with candles and a large, worn book.
Emma approaches the altar, feeling a cold chill run down her spine. She opens the book, revealing more drawings and symbols.
Emma
It’s some kind of binding ritual. The spirits are trapped here because of this.
Suddenly, the room grows colder, and the ghostly children appear, their faces filled with sorrow.
Ghost Child
Free us... Help...
INT. SECRET ROOM - LATER
The trio works together to undo the binding ritual, following the instructions in the book. As they complete the final step, the ghostly children smile and slowly fade away, their whispers turning into soft, joyful laughter.
Lucas
We did it. For real this time.
Emma
Yeah, i think its over...
Jason
I hope this is over...
