Synopsis: While at a slumber party, twelve-year-old Olivia is blamed for the horrific and mysterious death of her friend, after singing a song (created by a reclusive mastermind, Milo White) that summons a demonic figure known as 'The Crooked Man'. Returning to her hometown six years later, a string of unusual deaths lead Olivia (Angelique Rivera) to believe that she's still being haunted by whatever she saw that fateful night. Once you sing the rhyme, everyone in the house is cursed to die by his hands.

Olivia pushed her

down the stairs.

What about the intruder

Olivia said she saw?

We searched the property.

We questioned all the neighbors

on the block.

No one saw anyone.

You know, your sister was

supposed to be there that night.

Could've been her picture

in that file.

Do yourself a favor, son.

Stay away from Olivia Shaw.

Table four says they've been

waiting five minutes for coffee.

I'm on it, I'm on it.

Can you do me a favor

and refill number four?

Okay, what can I get for...

I just need five minutes.

I don't think so.

I came to warn you.

I think the crooked man is back.

I saw a picture

of Steven's body.

Whatever happened to him,

it looked just Jill.

Violet says I'm not supposed

to listen to you.

Charlotte...

She says you're dangerous

and unstable.

She's just trying

to protect herself.

Charlotte, do you really think

I killed Jill?

Eastborough police

are investigating

the tragic death

of grace Hutchinson.

Our investigators say it

initially looked like suicide.

They are not ready

to make that claim just yet.

Family and friends of Hutchinson

say there is no way

this career woman and mother

would take her own life.

Investigators say

the tragic death

of Hutchinson's

teenage daughter...

Olive, you're right.

Everyone who was there

that night is dying.

Where did you get that?

I just found it.

It's targeting us, isn't it?

We need to let everyone know.

Toss your bike in the back.

I'll drive.

We need to talk.

I'm working.

Violet, Jill's mother

died last night.

Let me guess.

The boogeyman did it?

Kind of a coincidence,

don't you think?

All of this happening

just as I get back into town?

You're not actually

listening to this, are you?

Steven's body...

It looked like just like

what happened to Jill.

Look at it!

What did happen to Jill, olive?

You don't remember that night?

What I remember was

a stupid, childish game,

and my best friend

being found dead.

Look, you don't think I get it.

If I'm the girl who killed Jill,

then none of this

was your fault.

But if I'm right,

and the crooked man is back...

What, Olivia?

What do you suggest we do?

Go into hiding because you think

something you did six years ago

has come back to kill us?

Come on, you don't really

believe this, do you?

Tell me, have you seen

or experienced

anything strange lately?

Does this conversation qualify?

This is not a joke, Violet!

No, I haven't.

But if you're right,

and if your little homecoming

has somehow brought

this thing back,

then there's really

only one answer, isn't there?

Leave.

I have to get back to work.

Just do me one favor, okay?

- Please stay out of the dark.

- Olive, let's go.
