Nightlight Page #3

Synopsis: For years, the Covington forest has been shrouded in mystery, with a dark past as a final destination for troubled youths. Undeterred by the news of a classmate who recently took his life in those woods, five teens journey into the forest for an evening of flashlight games and ghost stories. But their plans go awry when the friends awaken a demonic presence, an unseen evil that will seize upon their deepest fears-and plunge them into a nightmare of absolute terror.

And there's nothing

you can do...

as you jump...

Nothing...

except think of the impact.

Turn off your flashlights

as much as you can.

Light attracts them.

Don't write your

name in the forest.

It's a request to die.

And whatever you do...

never enter the church.

That is where they wait.

I'm a Greek statue, I'm a Greek

statue, I'm a Greek statue.

I'm a Greek statue, I'm a Greek

statue, I'm a Greek statue.

I'm a Greek statue,

I'm a Greek statue.

I'm a Greek statue.

I'm a Greek statue.

I'm a Greek statue,

I'm a Greek statue...

What's it going to be?

Um... Dare.

Dare... Nice.

I dare you...

Mm hm.

To text me a naked picture.

Oh yeah.

That's not funny.

No it's not

supposed to be funny.

No, my neighbor

sent a naked picture

to her own Gmail account...

Bam! Charged with distributing

child pornography.

So, you're not going to

send me the picture?

Truth.

When was...

Mm hm?

The first time you ever

touched yourself

in the swimsuit area,

in an inappropriate fashion?

And Robin here wants

all the disgusting details.

No.

Christmas vacation...

I was watching Rudolph the

Red-Nosed Reindeer on cable.

Aw!

The Clay-mation?

Yeah.

Oh sh*t.

Oh, I guess I...

feel a little bit

better. I...

The Grinch and I had a thing.

This is why Katy Perry's b*obs

can't be on Sesame Street.

- You nervous?

- No.

You nervous yet?

No.

Are you nervous?

No.

Are you nervous yet?

Nervous.

We went pretty far.

Nervous.

- I don't feel good.

- Like how?

Like sick...

to my stomach...

I just haven't eaten

all day, I guess. So...

Well, I mean, anorexia

is unhealthy, Robin.

No no it's not that.

I just...

I don't know

maybe somebody

can feel my forehead.

You're fine.

Seriously.

I just, I think this is stupid.

Covington is full of wild

animals and cliffs,

And I have to get

to work early tomorrow.

This sounds lame, but...

the first time

is always the best.

Really?

Yeah it's so scary.

Cool.

OK. So,

we blindfold you.

And everybody's

hiding. OK?

And you count

to 100. Slowly...

OK? Like one one thousand,

two one thousand, three...

All right. Now,

when you get to 100,

you take off the blindfold,

and then you try and find us.

But what if I can't find you?

Well... Just

scream "Nightlight."

I love slutty chicks.

And I will not apologize

for that.

No one's asking you to, buddy.

Something about tramp

stamps and tongue rings.

Like, I'm always going to talk

sh*t about girls who have them.

But the truth is,

it's instant Viagra.

Plus, I was watching Real

Housewives before coming here.

That show always makes me

horny for some reason.

Hey Ben, you know...

I want a Nightlight.

I...

I just, I wanted to
