claire (o.s.):
Hello?
Grandmother:
tell me!
Claire (o.s.):
Grandma?
It's come.
Claire (o.s.): What?
Grandmother: it's come for me!
Claire (o.s.):
Grandma, what's going on?
Grandma?
Grandma...
Grandma, talk to me!
What's come?
Grandma?
[Dramatic music]
sheriff elkins: well, it's
pretty crazy this year.
Rain one minute, snow the next.
Temperatures dropping fast.
And we've had bands of snow
moving in
from the north all day.
Might be clear for you now,
but don't count on that
lasting much longer.
Are you north of the interstate?
Well, if you are,
you'd see plenty of snow by now.
Claire: yes. Sorry,
I must have missed the turnoff.
It's been about 20 years
since I've been out here.
Ry:
use the gps.
It's not working.
Sheriff elkins:
all right, well
double back to
mile marker 23
and make a right.
Ben: do we have
to listen to this sh*t?
Make a left.
Now that you turn around,
just stay on that
until you run out of road.
See it yet?
Bree:
there it is.
Yeah. Got it, sheriff.
We'll be right there.
Sheriff?
Ry:
hey! Really?
This sucks.
You'll survive
without a candy crush fix.
It's fortnite.
And it rules,
and I happen to kick ass at it.
At least you're
not getting your butt kicked
by a video game too
shut up!
All I'm saying is, if
you hadn't quit jujitsu
a couple of years back,
you would have
had your brown belt like me.
And you wouldn't be
getting picked on all the time.
I'm not.
I'm not getting picked on.
You're getting picked on?
Any time I'm not around.
Roderick sharp and his wannabe
posse play tag with ry's head.
Can we go to mackinac island?
Ryan, why am I just
hearing about this?
Did you report this
to the principal?
Oh yeah, telling the principals
gonna make things way better.
Claire: don't worry.
I can choke out
any guy that messes
with ry.
Somebody's got a wonder
woman complex.
I don't want you choking anyone
out.
Ryan, you can't just let
bullies push you around.
This kind of thing gets out of
control
if you don't deal with it.
Sheriff elkins:
ah!
Sheriff elkins.
Claire scott.
This is brianna and ryan.
Your kids?
Sheriff elkins:
how was the drive out?
Claire:
not bad.
What the hell?
Please tell me
this isn't the right place.
This house looks like it's
going to fall down.
Amazing.
[Claire speaking in background]
ry: what are those things?
Bree: seriously?
They're dream catchers, doofus.
Claire: but by the time
we got back on the road...
Claire: anyway,
ry: what's his problem?
Bree:
hey! Back off, jerk.
Sheriff elkins:
no, not at all.
Claire: I appreciate you
checking up on my grandmother
until we could get out here.
It's part of the job.
It was a little strange
getting a call
for a welfare check
all the way from california.
I guess she didn't know
who else to call.
911, Maybe?
She tends
to keep things in the family.
The emt said your grandmother's
suffering from slight dementia,
going on about a lot of crazy
stuff
and not making a lot of sense.
I don't recall her ever
making a whole lot of sense.
So what's a windigo?
Where is she?
She's just inside.
I can have a caseworker
come out.
No, I'm here now.
I'll take care of her.
You, uh, chippewa?
Ojibwe.
And we take care of our own.
It's claire, right?
Uh...
Give me a call
I mean
if you need anything.
Thank you.
Claire:
come on, guys.
Let's go inside.
Claire:
wow.
It's exactly the same.
You lived here?
Yeah.
Bree:
oh, cool
claire:
bree.
Okay.
Grandma?
Grandma?
Grandma?
Ry:
gross.
Grandma!
You guys check upstairs.
Bree:
yeah.
Claire:
grandma! Where are you?
Grandma?
Ry:
grandma! Well...
On this week's
episode of hoarders,
shut up.
Bree:
I'll check this door.
Ry:
okay, I'll go in here.
Bree:
grandma?
Ry:
grandma?
sh*t!
Found her.
Grandma.
[Chuckling]
ry:
what was she doing up there?
I don't know, ry.
It's her house.
How old is she anyway?
I'm not sure.
I remember my grandmother
used to call her grandmother.
So, you do the math.
Is this mom?
When she was your age.
Oh, my god. You were hot.
Yeah.
Do you have any of you
when you were young, grandma?
I don't even remember
ever being young.
My son,
my daughter.
Anyone in your
family still alive?
Ry.
Just the...
Three of you.
Must be cool to live forever.
Grandmother:
to live forever means watching
everyone that you ever loved die
no one should be cursed
to live so long.
Do you have pictures of your mom
and dad?
No.
No.
Why don't you two
bring in the bags?
So we're staying?
Ry:
hey! Get off me.
Stop! Come on, bree.
Cut it out!
Claire:
guys! Cut it out!
When we said
magical christmas in michigan,
this isn't what I expected.
The bedrooms are, like,
all messed up.
Where are we gonna
sleep?
Right here.
I got dibs on the couch.
I'll wrestle you for it!
Ry:
come on, bree. Stop!
Bree: tap out.
Ry: bree, cut it out!
Claire:
grandma?
Grandma!
Grandma?
Not again.
Claire:
grandma!
She's not upstairs.
Okay.
Check out front.
Grandma!
Grandma?
You know,
if she had a cell phone
and we had service,
and I don't know
this was the 21st century
we could just
find my iphone her.
Hey!
Come on.
You going in?
Yeah.
You're not scared, are you?
No.
Grandma?
[Snarling]
[gasping]
ry:
help!
God. I hate this place.
[Taunting monster
noises]
what is that thing?
I don't know,
some kind of scarecrow
or something?
About what I'd expect around
here.
Bree:
how could she be alone out here?
Freaky.
Ry: I don't think
she could have made it this far.
Bree:
grandma?
Ry:
she can barely walk.
Grandma!
Oh, my god.
Should have worn better boots.
These are my docs.
They're worth like
150 bucks.
Not anymore.
Do you not see them?
Shut up.
This is so stupid.
There's no way she
could have walk this far.
I mean, she walks like...
[Zombie groaning]
you know,
she's probably in the house
hiding in one of the rooms,
just...
Waiting to jump out at me
again.
You know, we should
really just tell mom that she...
Shh.
You're disturbing the spirits.
This is amazing.
What are you doing out here,
grandma?
Finding a safe place to die.
A safe place to die?
Isn't that an oxymoron?
How come every time you have
a vocabulary, it's only
when you're being mean?
That's a dream catcher
right, grandma?
Grandmother:
mhm.
Goodwill passes through it.
Evil is caught in the web.
Must be a lot of evil
around here.
You need so many of them.
But there's like 100 of them
hanging on the house already.
Grandmother:
the greatest of all evil
windigo.
You ask.
When the evil is too great
for a man to judge.
Windigo is called upon.
It eats the flesh of evil
and becomes the evil.
Sometimes the dreamcatcher,
can...
Bind, and keep it away.
But sometimes the dreamcatcher
fails.
It lives to k*ll.
And it won't die...
Until the one that it's
summoned to punish...
Dies with it.
Right.
Can we go home now?
Yeah.
Come on grandma,
let's go home.
[Door opens]
[door closes]
where was she?
Checking out burial plots.
Grandma.
Nakoma, you can't
just go wandering off like that.
I wasn't wandering.
I want to go to my room.
Yeah, come on.
Mom, she hit me in the
head with a stick.
Did you deserve it?
She's crazy.
Why can't we just
put her in a rest home?
Because
we don't do that.
So we just go chasing after her
every time she wanders off.
What if it were me, ryan?
Would you put me in a home
with strangers
to wash me and dress me,
telling me when to sleep and eat
and just ignore me?
No, mom, I wouldn't-
neither would i!
Are you okay, mom?
Claire:
yeah.
Why don't you two go upstairs
and clean up
some rooms for yourselves?
None of the lights work.
You can't even see up there.
I'll go into town
later and buy some bulbs
here.
But don't drop it.
Oh!
Now I know why grandma hit
you with the stick.
How old do you suppose
all this stuff is?
Who cares? Let's just get
it out of here.
Hey! Check this out.
What is it?
Some christmas lights.
Hmmm.
Want to decorate?
Not really.
You know, it's still
not christmas without a tree.
Ry:
what?
Take your pick.
Perfect.
This'll do.
Definitely you.
Bree:
it's so beautiful out here.
Ry:
are you kidding me?
Bree:
no. Look at it!
Ry:
this is terrible.
Bree:
okay.
Ry:
how are we going to get home?
There's still no gps.
We're lost, aren't we?
Do you plan on gps-ing
your whole way through life?
We'll figure it out.
So how long do you think we're
gonna have to stay out here?
A while. I hope.
Did you really like living here?
Sure.
And look on the bright side.
New school, new start
for you.
Yeah. It'll be the same.
Just a whole
new set of jerk-offs.
To give me crap for no reason
at all.
Sometimes I wish dad was
still around.
Well, you know,
I can teach you a few moves.
You can give them crap.
Still nothing to do around here.
We're cutting down our own
christmas tree.
That's not cool enough for you.
You know, they sell them
in parking lots
already
cut down and everything, right?
Why do you always have to act
like that?
Like what?
Like you pretend
you hate everything.
Because maybe I do.
Don't you want to learn
about your heritage and stuff?
I'm half indian.
What's the big deal?
No, you're half native american.
Ojibway.
I mean, you can learn
a few things from grandma.
Imagine how much she's seen in
her life, how much she knows.
Bree.
How much could she know?
She gets lost in her own
backyard.
Granted it is one big ass
backyard.
Yeah, but you don't gotta be
mean about it,
you know.
Whatever.
What's that smell?
Bree:
over there.
Ry:
what is that?
I don't know.
What is all this stuff?
I don't know.
Bree:
that's not good.
What is this stuff?
Tuck: none of your
business is what it is.
Kevin:
what are you doing in here?
Ry:
nothing! Just-
just what?
You alone?
Ry:
I'll go. I'll just go!
Tuck: no, you won't.
Kevin give me that rope!
Yo, ben!
We got a problem.
[Panicked breathing]
m*therf*cker!
I know you.
I know this son of a bitch.
Kid ain't even from around here.
Then nobody'll miss him,
right? Right?
That's right.
People wander off into the woods
all the time
around here. Get eaten by
coyotes and sh*t!
I got a better idea.
Ben:
get over here!
Come on!
Tuck:
come on! Follow him!
[Yelling]
[laughter]
go! Go!
Keep crying! No one's
gonna save you.
You want to see
what we're doing, huh?
Ben: what is it?!
Ry: please, no!
Tuck:
over the well!
Kevin:
let's sh**t him first!
Not if we want it to look like
an accident.
How is it going to look
like an accident?
But he's got his f*cking
boot on his face, genius.
He's not even going
to have a face after the rats
get at him down there.
Ben:
just throw him in there.
Tuck:
I got the well
I'm gonna show you
something!
[Laughter]
you're going in there!
[Laughter]
[yelling]
bree: run! Go!
sh*t.
Ben:
I know where you live.
I know where you both
f*cking live!
Tuck:
we'll find you!
I'll watch the door!
911 Operator:
911, what's your emergency?
We just got att*cked by a bunch
of hillbilly drug addicts.
They're going to
throw me in a well.
911 Operator:
and what's your location?
Ry: no, I don't
know where we were!
There was a barn,
and then there's three guys.
They put a rope around my neck,
and you
didn't get any last names?
They weren't
introducing themselves.
They were trying to m*rder me.
One of them I saw before, the
day we got here, in your car.
Sheriff elkins:
ben.
You had a run
in with ben halstead.
Where was this at?
In the woods
somewhere at an old barn.
Like about-to-fall-down old.
And you att*cked him with
an axe?
I didn't att*ck them.
They had a g*n, and they were
going to sh**t my brother.
Look, ben's got his problems.
He gets into some trouble.
But I've never known him
to be violent.
Ry:
oh yeah? How about this.
Look, I don't know
what happened to you kids-
you been writing this
down or is
that just for effect?
Ry.
Sheriff elkins:
look, I'm just trying to
get at the truth here, son.
Ry:
and they pay you for that?
I'm going to go out on a limb
here.
You tell me how close I am to
the truth.
I think the two of you went out
looking for a little party
and big ben ripped you off.
Sold you some baking powder
or something.
And now you want me to bust him
for something
that you didn't get?
How am I doing?
Not very well, in my opinion.
They just told you
what happened.
Now, what are you going to do
about it?
Look, with all due respect,
you're not from around here
and I've seen plenty of kids-
enough.
You can go now.
Sheriff, my kids don't do that
stuff.
Are you sure?
Claire:
yes, I am.
So are you going to
check it out?
[Chuckling]
you know, there got to be 50
abandoned barns in this county
ready to fall down.
Half of them they got meth labs
in them.
By the time I got out there,
they would have just moved
it anyway.
So that's a no.
Alright.
I'll find ben.
I'll talk to him.
I'll see if I can figure out
what happened, okay?
Let me know what you find out.
Grandmother:
white man's law
is only good
for taking away the bodies
after they've been k*lled.
I can see the logic.
You didn't hear that.
Bree, they know where we live.
It'll be okay.
Claire: bree! Come help
me with dinner.
What do you want for dinner?
How about some chicken?
Bree:
no, let's save that.
How about just,
like, soup and salad?
Keep it simple.
Claire: yeah,
we should use up these grains.
We've got these canned soups.
Chicken noodle or tomato basil?
Let's do tomato basil.
Hey, mom said dinner.
Do you even know
how to use that thing?
How come you're always so much
better at this stuff than me?
I just am.
Look,
I know you're still freaked out
about what happened,
but you don't need to worry.
I won't let
anything bad happen to you.
I don't need you
to take care of me.
Okay.
I should be taking care of you.
You're my sister.
We take care of each other, ry.
I better get this back to where
it belongs before mom finds out
or meth heads will be the
least of our worries.
[Low-pitched growling]
for the wounds. Sit.
Jeez, grandma. It stings.
Just to help you sleep.
It tastes like crap.
Remedies for such
things are seldom pleasant.
Finish all of it.
[Quiet laughter]
[muffled breathing]
I know where you live.
[Ry screams]
[knocks on door]
I knocked.
It's okay.
Grandma,
look at my face.
How?
You make jokes.
Maybe now you believe.
Can it get rid of those guys?
It can.
It can take away your enemies.
And your fears
and everything else.
If you're not careful.
It's a very dangerous thing,
very difficult to control,
but you can control it?
What the wendigo does
cannot be taken back.
Please, grandma, I need it.
They'll k*ll me!
Grandma.
Grandmother: tonight,
when the others are asleep,
bring it to me.
Grandmother: the
medicine will allow the
windigo to see
what you see.
Know what you know.
You will ask it to
find the evil.
The ones who would do you harm.
And the eyes of the windigo.
Will be your eyes.
What must be done
must be done
as it has always been done.
You must give it form
of the forest
and of you.
You give it purpose.
But its will is its
own.
[Pained grunts]
you must speak to it,
in ojibwe.
Ask of it what you wish.
[Speaking in ojibwe]
[speaking in ojibwe
together]
[speaking in ojibwe]
[ojibwe continues]
grandmother:
and when you're done
you must send the windigo back.
You must never say its
name again.
You promise me.
Say it!
I promise, grandma.
Ry:
I promise.
[Snarling]
[ry yelling]
bree:
up!
You okay?
Yeah. Hmm.
[Groans]
ry: it feels like
it's about to explode.
I had the craziest dream
last night.
Yeah?
You better get downstairs, fast.
What is that?
It's, uh...
It's for christmas.
I was going to put a red nose
and a santa hat on it.
Ho, ho, ho!
Seriously?
Get rid of it.
It nearly scared me to death.
What were you thinking?
Claire: here's some more
chicken. Anybody want some?
Bree:
yes, please.
So what are you thinking about
for christmas dinner?
Claire: I'm not sure.
What sounds good to you?
[Conversation fades out]
[uneasy music]
bree:
what do you think, ry?
Huh?
Claire:
turkey or ham?
Ry:
um...
Turkey.
[Growling]
[growling]
[growling]
[growling intensifies]
kevin:
how long you think we got?
Ben:
just hurry up!
I want everything gone
in case the sheriff comes
snooping around.
Kevin:
I think they called him.
Ben:
more than likely.
Ben:
f*ck!
Kevin:
I got it!
Ben: make sure all those cold
medicine boxes are out of there.
They can trace them!
Kevin:
alright, yeah.
[Heavy movement]
ben:
what the hell?
Who's out there?
You don't want to f*ck with me!
Tuck, this ain't funny!
[Rushing noises]
[growling]
[low-pitched snarling]
[roaring]
[screaming]
ben?
Ben:
help!
Kevin, help! Get me out of here!
Kevin!
You assh*le! Get me out of
here!
Hurry!
There's something down here!
Kevin:
hang on!
[Ben whimpering]
there's something f*cking big in
here!
Ben:
get me out of here!
Kevin:
grab the rope!
Come on, keep climbing, man.
[Grunting]
kevin:
keep climbing!
There you go! Almost there.
Yeah.
[Ben screaming]
[ben whimpering]
[screaming]
[roaring]
kevin:
f*ck me.
[Grunting]
tuck: you see, like,
a raccoon or something?
Kevin:
f*cking raccoon, man.
Something big!
Tuck:
what, like a bear?
Kevin:
not a g*dd*mn bear, either.
Ben:
well, what then?
One of those...
I don't know. Something
like one of those things
my grandpa used to tell me about
tuck:
your crazy old indian grandpa?
Yeah, so?
So you're not 12 anymore.
Get over it.
There ain't no f*cking monsters
or evil spirits out here.
Well, he ain't down there now.
Tuck:
did you go by his house?
I called him, like,
ten times, man.
No answer.
Tuck: after you took off
squealing like a little bitch!
He probably climbed out of the
well himself.
He's going be pissed for you
leaving him in there.
Screw off, man.
Tuck:
oh, sh*t!
Kevin:
oh, f*ck, man!
Yo. We've got to get the
f*ck out of here, man. Come on!
Tuck:
f*ck!
Grandmother:
the greatest of all, evil
windigo.
It can take away your enemies
and your fears!
And everything else.
If you're not careful.
Bree:
ry!
What are you doing?
Where were you?
Mom would freak out if she knew
you're running in the woods.
Let's just tell her
that you were in the barn, okay?
Yeah. Okay.
Ry: where is she?
Claire: who?
Grandma!
Grandma!
Where were you guys?
Over in the barn.
Grandma.
[Knocking on door]
ry:
grandma, answer me!
It's real, isn't it?
It's not just a dream!
[Knocking on door]
ry: grandma!
Grandma!
[Knocking on door]
grandma!
Bree: I swear, mom,
I don't know.
Claire: anything at all!
Something we don't know.
Maybe a girl?
Bree: no, I swear, I have
no idea what's happening.
You okay?
Can you please just tell me
what's going on?
We can get help, if-
I'm not taking anything!
Then what is it, baby?
I'm not your baby.
I'm tired.
I'm just tired.
Tuck (o.s.):
Aw, the baby done fall!
Over the well!
Ben:
you're going in there!
[Car horn]
[car horn]
[car horn]
grandmother:
ask of it what you wish.
I was doing mine anyway.
Claire:
hey, sleepyhead.
You hungry?
Starved.
Where's grandma?
She's still in her room.
She's all dry, quirky.
She's set in her ways
what she does
and the stories she tells.
She's
just always been like that.
We just love and accept her.
She doesn't eat pizza, right?
It's all yours.
Grandmother:
and the eyes of the windigo.
Will be your eyes.
I'm hungry.
You just ate
like five pounds of pizza.
[Heavy breathing]
[growling]
[spitting]
drake!
I thought I told you
to stay inside.
All right, suit yourself.
[Screaming]
tuck:
let me go!
[Tuck screaming]
tuck:
oh no!
[Tuck screaming]
[screaming in agony]
[ry snarling]
hey, if you're gonna be out
here, mom said-
mom!
Hey.
Hey! Hey.
Oh, my god.
Dr. Deanna: when we
get his bloodwork back
it'll show any toxins, dr*gs-
he doesn't...
Do any.
He's 17 years old,
and there have been
some pretty nasty
hallucinogens
floating around lately.
Let me get the tox report back.
We'll know what we're dealing
with.
I'll have a nurse
finish up with you.
Mom. Ry doesn't do dr*gs.
I'm not sure if that's
comforting or not.
Grandmother:
it's a very dangerous thing,
very difficult to control.
Ry:
but you can control it.
Grandmother:
what the windigo does.
Cannot be taken back.
Hey.
Hey.
Ry:
where's mom?
She went to the store.
You know what we should do?
We should get mom a
christmas tree.
How?
Like out there?
Yeah.
Ry, the last thing we should be
doing is going back out there.
Do you remember the last time
we tried to get mom a christmas
tree?
Bree, it's fine.
Nothing's going to happen.
You know how much mom wants
christmas.
We can surprise her.
Okay.
Yeah, fine...
But!
I'm taking this.
Don't worry so much.
I got this.
Perfect.
Sure that's going to
fit through the door?
I'll make it fit.
[Aggressive grunting]
whoo!
Yeah.
Now, this is michigan christmas.
You like the snow?
Yeah. It's nice.
Don't you think
you should be worried about mom?
What do you mean?
Well, she's really stressed out
about grandma.
What about grandma?
She locked herself in her room
and won't come out.
And we have to go back to cali
in a week and it's not like
we have a spare room.
I'll stay.
You'll stay, what?
Stay with grandma.
Take care of her.
Ry, you hate it here.
You should stay with us.
You said you like it here.
I do.
But I'm not you.
I'm not me either.
I love it here.
That's good. Yeah.
Oh, grandma loves this cd.
Totally.
She made me go get it for her.
Yes, I remember.
We should put it on.
She would love to hear it.
Bree: I wonder if that's like
the now-seventeens
and now-sixteens.
[Claire and bree talking
in background]
okay, power!
[Music starts]
[knocking]
grandma, it's me.
I bet you're hungry.
Grandmother: I'll bet
that you are hungry, also.
I'm always hungry, no matter
how much I eat.
Its hunger is never ending.
You must not give in to it.
It takes and it takes
until there's nothing left.
I can control it.
You cannot.
If you're so afraid of it,
then why did you help me
bring it back?
There's a debt
I have not paid.
There was a winter
that was far worse
than any winter
that had ever come before
the ground frozen.
We couldn't even bury
the bodies.
Many starved to death.
My father,
ate of the dead.
The windigo
was called
upon to punish my father.
He knew that for what he had
done,
I too would be punished.
He gave me a
dreamcatcher to protect me
but he could not stop the curse.
I am cursed
to live
until the windigo
comes to take me.
No, grandma, I won't let it.
You must renounce. Now!
Send it back before it's
too late.
But I'm not finished yet.
It wants to protect me.
I feel it. I can guide it.
No!
It seduces you and uses you.
It will consume you.
I've put you in danger.
I've used your pain
and it was wrong.
No.
Grandma, it was right.
All my life I've been the weak
one, the scared one,
the one everyone
has to look out for.
Well, I'm not weak now.
I'm not scared anymore.
You will be.
[Bree and claire talking in
background]
claire:

Bree:

Ry, check this out,
mom used to listen to music
on these things.
[Chuckling]

Okay.
So I have a playlist for later,
and this!
And this.
[Windigo growling]

kevin:
I ain't calling no f*cking cops!
I don't know how the sheriff
found them.
The m*therf*cker was up
in the tree!
No, like in the tree.
I'm serious. Hanging there.
[Growling]
kevin: nah, tuck
wouldn't have called them!
Said it was a mountain lion
or some sh*t.
Yeah, no sh*t.
I know mountain lions do that,
but this was
something else, man.
Grandpa told me
there was sh*t in these woods
not to f*ck with.
I know what I saw!
It was one of them things.
[Loud snarling]

claire: grandma,
you came out of your room.
We were starting to worry.
What?
Claire:
ry, what are you doing?!
They're annoying.
What's going on?
I don't know.
I got a call from some hunters
a few days ago.
Said they found something
interesting out near
where you said you had a run
in with those kids.
They weren't kids.
Bree: yeah. That's the guy.
He was the one in charge.
Sheriff elkins: yeah, went and
talked to his known associates.
Found this young man in his
backyard
and, uh, in the woodpile
actually.
Bree: he was
the one who said to tie ry up.
Sheriff elkins:
hmm.
And uh, and him.
And he was the one with the g*n.
Sheriff elkins:
found him by his pickup
and under his trailer.
What do you mean, found them?
There they are.
Still look familiar?
Claire:
sheriff, please.
[Windigo growling]
sheriff elkins: you don't
look all that surprised.
Hey, bad things happen
to bad people.
Are you on something right
now, son?
Some scumbags got k*lled, and?
And these weren't accidental
deaths.
Somebody butchered them.
Ry: and?
Claire: ryan!
Sheriff, what are you saying?
Sheriff elkins: these two admit
they had a run in
with the victims, and a
few days later, they're dead.
Ry: oh, they're the victims.
Claire: ry!
They b*at me, try to k*ll us and
throw us in a f*cking hole
and you say you'll
check it out.
Something happens to them,
and they're the victims.
Son,
I warned you about your tone.
No, I'm warning you.
Leave us alone.
We have nothing to do with this.
Nothing!
Claire:
ry, bree, go upstairs now!
Sheriff elkins:
we're not done here.
Claire:
yes, we are.
Sheriff elkins:
your son could be a suspect
in a triple homicide.
Claire:
is he?
Are you suggesting this boy
butchered three grown men
upstairs, now!
Leave us alone.
Claire:
sheriff.
We're done here.
Bree:
what's the matter with you?
I'm not gonna let him push
me around.
He's just doing his job!
He shouldn't have messed
with me.
He's dead.
Ry, stop it.
Don't say stuff like that.
[Radio chatter]

[windigo snarling]

Bree:

[Grunting]
[elkins screaming]
[biting away aflesh]
don't make me do this, ry.
I love you!
It's coming!
You have to let me go.
Bree:
not until you calm down.
Ry:
this thing will k*ll you!
What is coming for me,
ry?
What the hell is going on
in here?
Bree, let him go!
It's coming.
I can't stop it.
I thought I could-
I'm sorry.
Claire: she used to
tell us the same story
when I was growing
up. Scare all us kids.
Right, grandma?
If someone
was bad, the windigo-
not bad, evil.
And bree. I'm surprised
at you.
Getting wrapped up in
all this stuff.
I thought you were smarter
than this.
We're not evil.
Not even bad.
Why would it come after us?
It can't be controlled.
It feels what he feels
and distorts his emotions.
It's watching right now.
Waiting.
Waiting for what?
Ry: I don't know.
Claire: that's enough, ry!
Ry.
Please!
Just tell me
what's wrong with you.
Now it will be coming for
you too.
Ry!
