Deliver Us from Evil Page #4

we started seeing

and hearing things.

What kind of things?

(SPEAKING ITALIAN)

Things moving and sounds,

mostly at night,

coming from the basement.

Come. This way.

(SPEAKING ITALIAN)

Mama says, it's like the

whole house is possessed.

"Possessed"?

(SPEAKING ITALIAN)

Gordon called it. She's a whackjob.

(SNAPS FINGERS)

(SPEAKING ITALIAN)

She knows you don't believe,

but it's okay.

She says,

"Let me show you."

Do you ever change

a light bulb around here?

SALVATORE:
No matter how

many times we get new,

they burn out in a few hours.

We get holy Candles from priest,

but here, they no burn.

The candles won't burn?

No. We all try light them.

Many times.

(SERAFINA SPEAKING ITALIAN)

This Jesus,

he came down off

the wall and broke.

(CAT MEOWING)

Jesus.

What the hell is wrong with it?

It's a cat. That's

what's wrong with it.

(CAT YOWLING)

(SERAFINA SPEAKING ITALIAN)

What are they saying?

They think

that down there

is where the evil comes from.

(SIGHING)

Excuse me.

All right.

Take the kid. Wait upstairs.

We are gonna go down and

check out the basement.

(STAMMERING)

The bulb, it burn out.

No light down there.

(DOOR CREAKING)

After you.

BUTLER:

(SOUNDS STOP)

(GASPS) You missed your calling.

You should have been a plumber.

(LAUGHING)

(FAINT CLATTERING SOUND)

There. Look at that.

(LOUD CLICKING)

You wanna read him his rights

or shoot him while he's down?

(SIGHING)

You know, it stinks down here.

I'm gonna go get some air.

MAN:
Watch your step.

MAN 2:
Do me a favor.

Get these lights on.

So these two painters you hired,

did they ever say

anything strange to you?

Tell you do anything?

No. They...

Barely speak.

Is one of them, no?

You tell me. This is his ID.

His name was David Griggs. Si.

Did you ever meet him or the other

painter before you hired them?

BOTH:
No.

As far as we can tell,

the other painter

was the last person

to see Griggs alive.

So, did you ever get

a good look at him?

(SPEAKING ITALIAN)

No.

Wore a hood.

A hood?

Dark.

Part of jacket.

F12. This is it.

(INDISTINCT TALKING)

RALPH:
Sh*t.

Griggs and Jane Crenna,

the lady from the zoo.

BUTLER:
Sarch.

RALPH:

body in the basement.

Jimmy, the wife-beater.

There.

That's the guy

we're looking for.

Sanno.
