Summary

Synopsis

Two girls peer-pressured into exploring an old abandoned building, find out that the rumours are true. With one of the girls missing, her best friend does everything she can to find out her whereabouts. But when her friend turns up on her door-step three months later, she knows that something isn't right.

Beginning:

 

The scene opens with an establishing shot showing two girls (A) and (B) stood outside an old house. They had been dared to go explore the house by their friends but they were reluctant. It flashes back to when the girls were being pressured into going and then the film goes back to the present day. One of the girls(A)is scared and the other(B)tells her to not be such a 'scaredy cat' as it can't be that bad. It then shows them walking up to the house and entering it.

 

 Middle:

 

It is pitch blank inside the old abandoned building. One of the girls(B)tries the light switch; the lights turn on but start to flicker. Wandering through the house, they find a lot of old antiques and jars containing strange things. Girl (B) picks up one of the jars and examines it (A) feels something touch her back and jumps knocking the jar out of (B)'s hand. They have a short argument using shot-reverse-shot about how she's being silly. (B) feels a presence too and she realises that they shouldn't be in here, they both head for the door.

 

 Ending:

 

When they reach the door, they find out that it's locked. They start rushing about to find an exit, but all of the windows are boarded up and they can't find another door leading outside. The lights shut off and things start flying everywhere. (B) turns on the flashlight on her phone. They both try breaking down the door. The flashlight illuminates (A)'s face when suddenly, she is dragged away. The flashlight turns off and a scream is heard in the distance. The title screen then appears.
