curiosity killed the kitt.

did you really call the police?

there is no death.

i told the others. they didn't believe me. you're all doomed.

i just can't take no pleasure in killing.

i don't really believe in motives.

there's just some things you gotta do. don't mean you have to like it.

if i concentrate hard enough, i can move things.

you must renounce this power. you must give it up.

there is something horrible happening in my house.

do you remember the thing you said on our wedding night?

you're going to die up there.

i've been afraid of storms ever since i was a little kid.

they're opening that place again?

at least i'm not afraid of ghosts.

my bed was shaking. i can't get to sleep.

you listen to me, you little bitch.

you sick fucks. you've seen one too many movies.

come on! it's gonna be a fun trip!

oh, that gun's no good.

you're such a sucker for it.

i've never sensed anything like it.

they die better that way.

you still haven't told me your name.

i was the killer!

somebody's there!

what are you doing out in this mess?

that's the last goddamn hitchhiker i ever pick up.

if i have any more fun today, i don't think i'm gonna be able to take it!

i don't think any of you have any idea of just how nasty what you did really was.

the devil exists. god exists. and for us, as people, our very destiny hinges upon which one we elect to follow.

you're doomed! you're all doomed!

what's your favorite scary movie?

shut your mouth!

hold me. please hold me.

you damn fool! you ruined the door!

i was at the slaughterhouse.

a second body was found in a ditch near the perimeter of the cemetery.

there's no need to do that.

what's that stench?

you're not even going to reprimand them? no punishment?

please help me!

you can't just let them kill me!

you never paid any attention!

i'll do anything!

sin never dies.

oh, that's blood all right.

you have a lot of spirits in here, but there is one i'm most worried about because it is so hateful.

are you alone in the house?

what an excellent day for an exorcism.

it knows what scares you. it has from the very beginning. don't give it any help, it knows too much already.

the power of christ compels you.

there's someone in this fucking room!

next time i catch anybody over there, i'm gonna have to run them in.

they're all gonna laugh at you!

we keep everything locked in here. feel free to look around.

hear that?

i'm the devil. now kindly undo these straps.

is there someone inside you?

don't go anywhere.

talk louder, i can't hear you!

you already cut me too deep! i think i'm dying here!

you fuckin' hit me with the phone, dick!

oh my god, i thought you were dead.

we all go a little mad sometimes.

this is the moment where the supposedly dead killer comes back to life for one last scare.

don't call me that!

you wanna get us killed!

come on, there's something you're not telling me.

you'll never come back again.

wanna see my trick shot? it's even better.

his body was never recovered from the lake after he drowned.

help me tie this around my waist.

you've never done this before.

when you hear it, you're gonna think we're insane.

it did that to your face?

everything you see in here is either haunted, cursed, or has been used in some kind of ritualistic practice.

DIALOGUE PROMPTS

go! i'll be fine! just go!

it's too late for me!

we'll find another way to do this!

you'd better get out of here!

i'll come back for you. i promise.

one of us has to survive this.

i'm not leaving you here!

no, no, no! not like this!

leave me here. it's all right.

go! live another day!

i'll carry you! get up!

there has to be another way!

i'm the only one that can do this.

do me a favor, will you? tell [name] i love them.

i'll only slow you down.

this isn't funny. wake up. please.

it's no use. i have to stay here.

listen to me! this is your last chance!

i always loved you.

get up! please get up!

i'll find another way!

i love you! please! don't go!

i can't lose you!

this is it, then.

i'll hold them off!

it was supposed to be me.

i'm going back for it!

keep running! i'll catch up!

if you stay, you'll die. do you understand?

no! i'm not leaving you here!

i'm not letting you die!

please wake up. please.

❝ ... my friends were kidnapped, and murdered. it was this old slaughterhouse. s'where i woke up. there were bones, everywhere. not just animal bones, but... ❞ he trails off, wringing his hands. ❝ it's like... it's like they'd been doing this for a long time? this whole fucked up family, that makes people disappear. ❞ he slides her the newspaper under his hands — the front page contained another article that read "LAST SEEN: NEWT, TEXAS". another picture of some missing girl. just like maria. just like countless others.

hopefully he forgives the way your eyes light up as he explains, dark gaze quickly flitting down to look at the newspaper. another in a long line of mysterious disappearances, it says. newt? texas is kinda dry for newts, you think, but maybe it's named after a person. "cops never do shit, they're all fuckin' pussies." bit of personal venom laced in there, but you stand by it. "either that or they're complacent."

probably complacent. you know they usually are, with their piggy thumbs on the pulse of any horrors in their jurisdiction. sometimes they're the ones who do it, like in wisconsin. you crack your knuckles, running your tongue over your teeth. "so, murderous, maybe cannibal, butcher family out in the sticks -- cops're useless, they're established, yadda yadda --" you nod. "sounds fun," you remark with no lack of sarcasm.
