The Purgation Page #2

Synopsis: Ever since she was a little girl, Iris has wanted to be a filmmaker. For the last five years though, she's been trapped working in reality television, directing episodes for a series that's barely able to compete with Ghost Hunters. Iris sees her big chance to prove herself when gets sent on assignment to her hometown of Black Falls, a small town harboring an abandoned insane asylum that has a dark history of excessive shock therapy. Filming inside the asylum brings back childhood memories for Iris, memories of sneaking into the asylum with her friends to shoot homemade horror movies. Little does Iris know, her life is about to imitate her art.

Guys, can we get out of here?

It's getting really cold.

- But we haven't checked out

the rest of the ass-i-lum.

- I'm not cold.

(sneezes)

- Ugh, this place

is covered in mold.

I'm probably going to get sick

just by breathing down here.

- We still have one

more scene down here

before we can shoot

the scene in the woods.

- I've got those

lines memorized.

- Derrick, where are you going?

Derrick?

- This is bad.

- I don't remember

seeing that door

when we first came in here.

- We are so observant.

- She's right, I don't

remember seeing it either.

Where did it come from?

- It's really dark down here,

I bet we just missed it.

- Let's just go back

up and get help.

I have a bad feeling about this.

- And leave Derrick down here?

- Well, there's something

obviously wrong with him,

like more than usual.

- I'm going after him.

- No, we have to stick together.

What if you get lost too?

- We'll be fine, just stay here.

- And do what?

Pray?

You better not leave me here.

Come on, come on.

- Derrick.

Hey Derrick.

Where are you?

Come out, come out,

wherever you are.

Marco.

No Polo, okay.

(ominous music)

(thudding)

- Come help me.

(creaking)

- [Derrick] Marlene?

(footsteps)

(ominous music)

(slamming)

Hey!

Guys, let me out!

(groaning)

- Derrick?

Iris?

(ominous music)

(ghostly voices)

(slamming)

Derrick?

Iris?

(screams)

- Doesn't it feel

like we've been

walking down this

hallway forever?

- Yeah, maybe we

should turn back.

- Just a little further,

I think I see the end.

- Iris?

- I think I see him!

Derrick!

Hey, Derrick!

Why is he just standing there?

Come on Caden, why

are you stopping?

Caden?

(ominous music)

(screams)

(moaning)

(ominous music)

(groaning)

- [Iris] Marlene!

Marlene! Where are you?

- Iris?

- [Iris] Can you see me?

- Iris...

(coughing)

Derrick?

- What is that?

- Where were you?

- We have to get out

of here, where's Iris?

- I'm here.

(growling)

(screaming)

- Run!

(car engine)

- I said six o'clock.

(running)

- What?

- Where's the staircase?

Did we take a wrong turn?

- No, I remember this is

the way that we came in.

It should be right here.

- Guys look.

- I don't remember

seeing that door.

- Me neither.

Maybe it's a way out.

- Let's link hands so

we don't get separated.

- Our father, who art in Heaven,

hallowed be thy name.

Thy kingdom come,

thy will be done.

- I wish Caden were here.

- You know he's

imaginary, right?

- Yeah, but I feel

better when he's with me.

- Guess that's kind of

like how I believe in God.

- You think God's imaginary?

- Maybe, I mean,

at least you can see Caden.

I pray every day to God,

but I never hear him or see him.
