you want on room service.

I'll see you tomorrow.

Thanks.

Yeah.

Come on... come on...

Ok, it's just coming up...

Ok there..

there it is, you see it?

Yes..

I see it.

There's someone there.

Ok, there's more..

just wait...

and there... there...

you see his outline?

It's hard to tell, it

could just be a shadow

Oh come on, there's someone there.

Maybe. It's really hard to tell

Tell me you believe this ok?

Believe what?

This is the man that killed Alice.

This is the same man that I saw on

the night that she was murdered.

What do you mean?

I think there's ghosts in my house.

David!...

I know this sounds crazy, believe me,

I know how f***ing crazy this sounds,

but I've seen things, I've heard things,

it's the only rational explanation

I don't think it is!

Yes it is!

Ok, ok, wait until you hear this.

In the 1930's they held

seances in my house,

the people said they saw a shadowy figure,

a shadowy figure

It's a coincidence, that's all.

The previous owner, right, the estate agent

told us it was an old lady that went senile,

but it wasn't.

They lied to us.

She was a young woman who tried to burn her

house down while her family was asleep.

Now her son died in the fire,

but she swore she didn't do it.

Like me with Alice.

She said it was the demon.

She said a man she couldn't see

tried to rape her.

She said he was a demon

who lived behind the walls.

The walls, Clare.

Stop for a moment.

Stop for one moment.

Will you just think about

what you're saying.

You think I'm having a

nervous breakdown don't you?

Well maybe I am.

No.

Well maybe...

You're just exhausted.

Ok?

Yeah.

Billy?

Sophie?

Billy can you hear me?

Dad why did you not come to see us today?

I'm sorry.

I wanted to, I just

wasn't feeling very well.

Can you come in and see us tomorrow?

Yeah.

Yeah, promise.

What have you had to eat?

We had burgers, chips,

icecream and coke for dinner.

Wow..

My tummy is big, look how fat I am Dad!

Billy is Sophie back in the room with you?

No she's still in the shower.

Billy I want you to move the laptop around,

ok?

Just move the laptop around so I can

see the rest of the room, go on.

Please?

Keep moving...

keep moving the laptop.

That's it. Good boy.

keep moving some more...

that's it...

just need to see the...

the room.

What is that?

Billy...

BILLY!

BILLY GET OUT OF THE ROOM!

BILLY!

How did you get here so fast?

Mr Williams?

I'm not sure if I can work here anymore.

I don't know what's going on.

And..

if it wasn't for Billy I think

I'd leave right now.

I understand.

Yeah you're right, you should go.

I can't guarantee your

safety anymore and...

it's not safe to be around us.
