The Purgation Page #3

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.

Ew, are those boogers

Marlene?

- [Eddie] Shh, it's

gonna be okay kid.

We're gonna get you home.

(solemn music)

- Listen.

Yeah, the barn, I know.

It wasn't a haunted barn,

it apparently just

needed a new roof.

No, they were there,

yes they were there,

the so-called sufferers

of demonic possession.

They suffered concussions

from the fallen roof.

No, Iris, yeah we're on our

way to Black Falls right now,

Iris finally set us

up with an asylum.

Yes, I know...

Apparently there

was this nurse there

that just went crazy and

slaughtered everybody there

and burnt the place down.

It should be good, I know.

Lennie?

You're cutting, Lennie

you're cutting out.

- Okay.

- I'm listening, Lennie, I'm

trying to find reception.

All right.

(footsteps)

- What are you

taking pictures of?

- Just the river.

- That's a nice camera,

can I take a look?

- Actually, no.

Excuse me, this is my car.

- You from around here?

- Not anymore.

- What's not anymore mean?

- I used to live a

couple miles from here.

- Not much of anything a

couple miles from here.

- I'm sorry, what did you

say your name was again?

- Elvis.

(grunts)

(coughing)

You crazy b*tch.

Just to let you know,

I work at the gas

station down the road.

Come on by if you

ever want a fill up.

- Sorry about that, Lennie

was talking my ear off.

He seems pretty excited that

we're going to

Black Falls though.

(ominous music)

You okay?

- Yeah, let's go.

We should check in at the hotel.

- Excited to be going home?

- Excited to be going

into the heart of nowhere?

- I don't like

other people getting

all up in my business, you know?

- Don't worry, from

what I remember,

everyone was really nice.

- Sure, from what you remember.

Definitely a lot of

nothing out here.

- We will get that

shower curtain

replaced for you right away.

- And the air conditioner

is way too loud.

- It's too loud?

- Hey Iris, there's coffee.

- Yes.

- Sir, I would offer

to move you to

another room, however,

all of the air

conditioning units

are the same in

all of the rooms.

- No elevator, great.

You want me to take
