In the name of the
Father, and of the Son,
and of the Holy Ghost,
I command you out.
In the name of Jesus,
out of this young child.
You are no longer welcome here.
I... in the name of God,
the almighty creator...
I cast you out!
You have four messages.
It's Sarah, wondering when
I can see that first draft.
I left you several messages.
Look, I told everyone here that
you are the next Stephen King.
I'm counting on you
not to let me down, okay?
In good faith, all right?
So, so call me.
Hey, babe. It's me. I
hope the writing's going well.
I'll see you tonight
No good.
All right, I love you.
Jessie, this isn't
a joke anymore. Call me.
Sweetheart?
So, how'd the writing go?
I brushed my teeth
five times today.
So, you're still blocked.
I don't know.
It's more than that.
My editor,
she left another message.
She thinks I'm a fraud.
What the hell does she know?
Baby, could you pour us
a glass of wine?
Did you really like
my last book?
Jessie, you know that I did.
I told you that
the night we met.
What if you were
just trying to get laid?
Yeah, I was. But I really
did like it, honestly.
It was genuinely scary.
What are you doing?
What if I told you I could get
rid of your blockage for good?
"Blockage"?
What?
Just hear me out.
You and me, alone, one week,
your Aunt Jean's cabin.
A vacation?
Damn right, a vacation.
We both could use one.
Brian, I can't leave. I've spent
all the advance money.
It's just not a good time.
What is one more week
going to hurt?
Look, we'll go.
We'll have a romantic getaway.
You'll clear your head,
come back, bang it out.
Oh, baby, this is really sweet
But, I don't know, I mean,
my aunt died in that cabin.
Two years ago.
Jessie, she left you that cabin.
It's yours.
I don't know. I barely knew her.
And to be honest, I...
I don't like it there.
Well,
get over it.
Brian, just let me finish this.
And then we can go on vacation.
We'll go on a real vacation.
I don't expect you
to understand.
I'm just in this funk.
my head won't be clear.
Okay.
Thank you.
- I'm going to burn those flowers.
- Please don't.
- Yeah.
- No. I love them.
You don't want...
They didn't work.
No, I do want them.
Hello.
Hi, George.
Who's this?
This is Jessie, Aunt Jean's
niece. She left the cabin to me.
Are you still there?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm here.
Well, how are you, young lady?
I'm good.
You were the caretaker
at the cabin, right?
Uhh, sure, yeah, still am.
Good. I was wondering,
is it still available?
Well, old Aunt Jean
left it to you, didn't she?
Of course it's available.
Great, good to hear.
Are you thinking of
coming up here soon?
Yeah, yeah, I am.
We could have gone up there
a million times
alone.
I just feel like
Well, who's going to inspire me?
Huh?
I could use
some inspiration too, you know?
You want to
hear something strange?
No.
So, I spent a lot
of time there as a kid.
Mm-hmm.
And yet,
I don't remember anything.
Something about the thoughts of
that cabin really creeps me out.
I'm kind of nervous to go back.
You just have a big imagination.
And I hope going up there
will reignite it,
you know, alone in
You know what, that's good.
Yeah, that's it.
Maybe it was the cabin.
You weren't just inspired
by the cabin. You were...
You were influenced
by the cabin.
And that's why you became
a horror writer.
Shut up.
This is good, like,
interview material, you know?
Like, when they ask you why
now you've got
this whole back-story
of what happened to you, yeah.
That would make me a fraud.
And now you're
going back out there
to see if
anything strange happens
so you can write the sequel.
It's not a sequel.
Just seems to me,
the two of us spending
a week up there together,
humping our brains out
would be just as therapeutic.
I love you.
I know.
Want the rest?
I'm not hungry.
Writer's block
kills your appetite
for both sex and food, huh?
Look, when George gets here,
please be nice.
He's a little odd.
But he's a good guy.
Wait. Who is he again?
He works at the cemetery.
But he's also the caretaker
And, as far as I know,
he was friends with my aunt.
But why did she
leave you the cabin?
You didn't really know her.
You ever find out?
No. No. She didn't have
anyone else, I guess.
And how'd she die again?
It was an accident, I think.
I don't really know the details.
She fell down off a ladder.
You see the danger of
being out there all alone?
You could slip in the shower,
hit your head.
And no one would ever know.
I'll be careful.
And I'll leave a phone
by the shower.
What? What is it?
What the hell
are they looking at?
Do I have something on my face?
It's a small town.
They all know my aunt died.
You were nine.
Well, they're just wondering
small towns.
Look, I just don't understand
why I'm dropping you off here
instead of up at the cabin.
Because George said
it's difficult to find
and it's easier to meet us here.
That must be George.
Hi, George.
Well, look at you,
all grown up now, ain't you?
