I mean, really, let's face it.

This is a wonderful building.

Have you ever seen

such elegance?

Anyway, I guess she decided

to pack it in and stay here.

- Alone?

- Well, that I don't know.

All I know is she must

have been a little crazy.

My father remembers her.

He saw her in the movies

when he was a kid.

In the end, she was kind of

like, um... like Gloria Swanson.

In Sunset Boulevard.

Well, if this is her, got to

give her credit. Not bad.

They say at a certain point

she quit the movies all together,

because she didn't want

people to see her getting old.

Her last picture never even

came out!

I guess she

paid off the producers

not to put it on the market.

At any rate, by the time

she retired, she was already...

retirement age.

She couldn't possibly

still be alive.

LINDA:
And if she were?

[SIGHS]

Aah!

JANE:
No! My baby.

What are you talking about,

dear?

Jane, calm down, honey.

- What happened?

- I...I don't know.

I don't know.

It's like something pulled me

down in there.

Are you okay now? Come on

downstairs and we'll lie down.

I don't know what happened,

but I am not crazy!

Uh, the tide's going out.

I think we'd all better

get back to the boat.

Yes, good idea. I think I've had

enough of this island.

- GARY:
Hey, they're leaving.

- LESLIE:
Great!

I think I have enough

for my book.

I don't feel like hanging

around here anymore.

- Let's just go.

- Okay.

I'll go get the hot plate,

unless they made off with it.

Now what do we do?

I told you to tip him!

Jane isn't well, we have

to get back to Boston.

Daddy, I'm all right.

Don't worry.

But I want to get off

the island right now!

Sir, I just don't think

that's feasible right now.

Why don't we all go back

in the house and wait?

When my father finds out

we're not back yet,

he'll take care of everything.

I certainly hope so.

You know, this is all your fault,

you trusted that idiot.

Nice lady, huh?

Don't envy you having to work

with her for the next 6 months.

TOMMY:
She told me she lived

here for years and years.

But I met her yesterday

in a park.

JANE:
What did she look like?

TOMMY:
Pretty old

and dressed in black.

Look, there she is,

the woman in black.

- [GARY WHISTLING]

- [FOOTSTEPS]

- Oops!

- Who are you?

Uh... Hi, my name is Gary.

I'm a photographer and I came to

the island with a friend of mine

to shoot some pictures of

that crazy witch's light.
