You know, after.

So will you help me with

something before you go?

How the hell did you expect to

get this thing in here yourself?

To be honest, I didn't.

I always thought

it'd be both of us.

Over here for now.

OK.

What's that?

Yacht anchor. Kill switch.

So, uh...

I understand if you

don't want to stay.

I accept that, but I

got to get started.

I'll stay for a little bit.

Excuse me.

Hello. My name is

Kaylie Ann Russell.

I'm 23 years old.

I'm with my brother,

Timothy Alan Russell.

Alan, of course, after his father.

He's...

He's 21 years old.

It's 4:
15pm on October 13th,

and we are at 2705 Hawthorne Way.

I'll begin by detailing my precautions

before I place and uncover the glass.

There are three cameras, each on

its own independent power circuit,

so if any anomalies occur, there

can be a lucid, objective record.

I have private land lines for today's

experiment, along with my cell phone.

And I will now ask my

brother for his phone,

so that I can control

all electronic devices.

I just got this, you know.

Thanks, Timbo.

This alarm is set to go

off every 45 minutes

to remind me to change the

tapes in the cameras.

This alarm is set to go off

hourly to remind us to eat.

And we're fully stocked on

water to prevent dehydration.

Now, as for the house itself...

each room is fitted with

its own thermostat,

from which data is collected by

software designed to track and record

temperature fluctuations

in hospitals.

Any temperature changes greater than

five degrees in either direction

will set off an alarm.

A third precaution

is also in place,

but I'll get into that

in a few more minutes.

So...

The purpose of today's experiment

is to prove that the object

behind me, the Lasser Glass,

is home to an observable,

predictable supernatural force.

There's no scientific equivalent

for the word "haunted,"

so we'll just say this object is

responsible for at least 45 deaths

in the four centuries of

its recorded existence...

Can I just stop you for a second?

Don't ever turn off a camera.

Sorry.

The origin of the Lasser

Glass is unknown,

so I can't provide a

complete history,

but the trail starts

in London in 1754.

Philip Lasser, the 17th

Earl of Leicester,

acquired the mirror and hung

it over his fireplace, and...

Another precaution.

Hi, sweetie. How are you?

Well, I'm checking in,

uh, as requested.

- You all right?

- Everything's fine.

I know this is silly to ask, but

could you try to call on the hour?

It's about seven past.

- Uh... Sure.

- I'll talk to you in 53 minutes.

And I love you.

I'm expecting regular calls

from my fiance, Michael Dumont.

I told him I'm nervous to be
