The Crooked Man Page #4

It lives in the dark.

Just make sure you're always

in the light, no matter what!

You're wasting your time.

No one's seen her in years.

I'll be right back.

Who is it?

Olivia Shaw.

Alice isn't here.

Do you know when she'll be back?

She doesn't want to see you.

That's not what I asked.

- I think you should go.

- Please!

It's really important

that I speak to your daughter.

Go away!

That didn't work.

Wait. So the babysitter's

the last one?

Assuming we even know

how to find her.

Actually, that's an easy one.

Mother?

Trust me.

It's for your protection.

This is taking way too long.

Come on.

Excuse us, excuse me, sorry.

Sorry. Gotta get through.

Please, please,

our friend is in danger.

- Go on in.

- Thank you.

You're good.

Ladies and gentlemen,

please welcome to the stage

Mia Johanssen.

There she is!

Good evening, Eastborough.

Thanks for coming out tonight.

It's good to be back

in my hometown.

What is it?

The darkness. It's here.

Um, um...

Excuse me.

- Whoa!

- We have to get back there.

- You got a pass?

- She's a friend of ours.

Get lost.

Go away!

It's all in your head.

It's all in your head.

Hello! Come on!

Anyone in there?!

Excuse me.

You two can't take a hint.

- Something's wrong.

- Mia?

She's just taking a break.

We think she might be

in trouble.

You're not getting in there.

You do it then. Please!

Fine. You two wait here.

No, no.

No! No! No!

Mia!

Mia! Everything okay?

Mia!

Mia?

Are you here?

Jesus!

I can't comment on whether

it was a suicide or not

'cause I haven't seen

the autopsy.

You know how long it took my dad

to get off the case?

- What are you doing?

- Look at this.

"Classmates of the two

missing teens

mentioned that the two

had recently displayed

a fascination for an Internet

meme known as the crooked man.

There's gotta be

at least 50 stories here:

Suicides, homicides,

disappearances.

"Crooked man uncovered?"

The original site

was taken down.

But according to this,

a lot of people

had recited that rhyme.

Uh-huh.

I thought maybe there might be

some information

on how to stop this thing.

Unfortunately there's no contact

information listed or anything.

- I have an idea. Come on.

- Where are we going?

- The crooked man?

- You've heard of it?

Internet meme that kills people?

So can you find whoever put up

that website or not?

All you have to do is put the

domain into a who is search,

and you should get

what you need.

Got a P.O. Box in Leveritt.

No name?

Looks like whoever did this

wanted their privacy.

But that should be pretty easy

for you to trace, right?

I thought you said

this was going to be hard.

We're cyber forensics.
