Awaken the Shadowman Page #2

Synopsis: Estranged for years since a devastating and horrible tragedy back in 1964, siblings Adam and Jake reunite once again when unexpectedly, the former receives an emergency phone call from his brother informing him that their widowed mother Evette has been inexplicably missing for days. Without delay, Adam troubled by the alarming news, returns to his hometown with his wife Beth and baby Emma, only to be awkwardly welcomed with open arms by the pervading members of the local cult-like bereavement group called "Gateways" and their rather cryptic guru leader Lawrence. Undoubtedly, there is more than meets the eye, moreover, as the two brothers search for answers in the secretive neighbourhood, at the same time, the dark presence of a grim and haunting spectre seems to be strongly attracted by infant Emma's innocence. Is there a chance of eluding the malignant otherworldly visitor?

I'm sorry.

You know, maybe the four of us

could go on a trip sometime.

Some place exotic?

Yeah, maybe.

- I love your necklace.

- Really? Thank you.

You know, I can't ever decide

if it's too much.

No, it's beautiful.

Yeah, I bet this would

look good on you.

Here, try it on.

Oh.

All right.

Honestly,

it looks better on you.

Really?

Yeah, you should keep it.

What?

No, I couldn't.

Keep it.

I have one just like it.

Hi, glenda.

Hi. Hello.

She looks even more

beautiful today.

You're the most beautiful

girl in the world, Emma.

Hello, darling.

Glenda, we brought

the fliers here for you.

How many can I have?

Oh, there's like

a dozen in there,

but we can always get you more.

I just wish we knew

where she was.

I'm s...

I can't imagine why

she would leave us,

and we... we do everything

together after my son died,

and...

You could come to gateways,

too, you know?

And pass these out.

Or just sit in.

We'll do that for sure, thanks.

What do you know about tom?

Mom's ex-boyfriend?

We talked to him.

He doesn't know anything.

Jake and I will go talk to him.

Thanks.

- It's a nice ride.

- -Oh, you like it?

I feel like it's

a little ostentatious.

Like, too flashy or something?

I don't know.

Must have been pricy, no?

Yeah, well, I've worked hard

to get to this place.

Sacrificed a lot.

I'm afraid to see what

your new house looks like.

I could get you into my work.

We're looking for good people.

I don't even have

a college degree.

Eh, you're my brother.

It's fine.

Unless you'd prefer breaking

your back outside everyday.

Hey, it's an honest living.

You just don't want

to work for me, right?

Look, let's not get into this

right now, all right?

Let's just focus

on finding mom, please.

Christy?

Christy?

Tom! Tom!

What are you doing here?

- Uh, we're just looking for tom.

- What for?

We need to talk to him

about our mother.

Yeah, who's that?

Evette Morris?

Oh, yeah.

I liked her.

She was real pretty.

Well, thank you.

Jake Morris.

And you must be the other one.

The one who left.

Adam, right?

First man risen from dust.

What are you doing here, boys?

Just wanted to talk to you

about our mom.

Me and evette used to spend

a lot of time together.

Who do you think Johnny law

came calling up first

when she turned up missing?

Yeah, sure. Makes sense.

Of course they did.

Well, uh, sorry

to have bothered you.

No, no. We wanted to talk

to you in person,

- see if maybe you...

- Maybe what?

What are you looking for?

We're just trying

to find our mother.

She's been missing for days.

We're just worried.

I told you, I haven't

talked to her.

Why did you guys stop dating?
