CROSSFADE WITH A WHITE LIGHT INT.HOUSE/LIVING ROOM - NIGHT CROSSFADE: WIDE: SHOT OF THE HOUSE SLOWLY SHIFT FOCUS TO THE WINDOW, REVEALING THE COUPLE INSIDE. MEDIUM CLOSE UP: OF THE COUPLE FROM OUTSIDE - FRAME WELL A woman, mid 40s is crying whilst sat down on the dining table, cuddling a photo of a teenage girl, she’s being comforted by her husband about the same age, wearing a smart shirt and trousers, hugging her and telling her it’s all going to be OK. MEDIUM SHOT OF: THE COUPLE, THEN SHIFT TO SHOT REVERSE SHITS. The girl stops singing, as she finished the song. REACTION SHOT ON IAN, MEDIUM IAN It’s going to be ok, Father Anderson, said he’s done this before. The girl starts singing again, but this time her voice morphs from her normal voice to a deep and evil voice, the voice so deep it sends tingles up your spine.

          facing the crucifix to Mary.

                    I win *Laughter* I win.                                
                                                                           
          Reaction shot on the priest looking scared and confused          
                                                                           
          Mary makes a loud Screeching sound, sort of like getting         
          possessed/getting a fit, pulling her body up as hard as she      
          can, she holds this for a few seconds then she drops onto        
          the bed seeming like the Evil Spirit has left.                   
                                                                           
          The Priest takes a closer look at  her face back to normal,      
                                                                           
          he brushes her hair to the side. His face looked ecstatic as     
          he sees that ’s back to normal                                   
                                                                           
          The door slowly opens.

          The Priest shifts his attention to Jenna,                        
                                                                           
          To his terror, He sees what’s become of Jenna,                   
                                                                           
          Her face Pales as rice, blood Marks her face and clothes,        
          she holds a long bloody chef’s knife.

          From Mary’s POV, Blurred and disorientated, a figure slowly      
          approaches the Priest, a swift movement of the figure            
          slitting the priest’s neck.                                      
                                                                           
          Then we hear a brief scream/shriek and a body falling down.

          The Priest lies Dead on the Bed his neck slit end to end.        
                                                                           
          Jenna stands over the Priests’ lifeless body. Blood both on      
          the knife and around her mouth
