[ eerie instrumental music ]

VOICEOVER:The year is at

the great estate of Collinwood.

And this night,

a new horror hides in the forest surrounding the house.

As the full moon signals an evil transformation,

a child has disappeared

and one woman knows who and what may be tracking him

as he runs from anyone who tries to find him.

Jamison,

don't hide from me.

Jamison.

[ leaves rustling ]

Jamison.

Is that you?

[ growling ]

[ screaming ]

[ dramatic instrumental music ]

[ eerie instrumental music ]

No! Listen, no!

[ screaming ]

EDWARD: My God!

Don't go after him!

We must get her to the house

and phone the police.

No, no!

You're gonna be alright.

Have you seen that creature before.

BARNABAS: Good God no!

Are you sure?

We must get her to the house before it gets back.

BETH: Jamison, Jamison?

EDWARD: Jamison's at the school, Beth.

No, no, he's not.

He's here, he's in the woods!

I'll look for him,

you take her back to the house.

You'll be k*lled!

BARNABAS: My cane.

Help me!

It went but first we need a g*n.

I will find him.

Help me Barnabas

and then we'll look for Jamison

but we must hurry.

[ growling ]

Mother?

Jamison, darling!

JAMISON: Oh, Mother!

I've been thinking of you all evening.

Did you know that?

Is that why you came here?

Oh, darling.

Mother, I've run away from school.

Please don't make me go back, please?

LAURA: All right.

And please go to Father

and try to make up to him, please?

Make up?

JAMISON: Yes, please do it, please?

Jamison, your father will never make up with me.

He might, honest he might.

Well, whenever he's mad at Nora or me,

he always forgets.

Well, he won't forget with me.

That means that I'm gonna have to go back to that school.

He'll never let me stay with you.

He won't even let me stay at Collinwood.

But if I go away,

you could come with me.

I must go Jamison, soon.

Come with me.

I would never be far away from you then.

You wouldn't?

LAURA: No, we would be together, always.

Well, if I were to go with you,

would I be able to come back sometimes

and see people?

You mean see Quentin?

Quentin won't be here much longer dear,

he's going to leave Collinwood soon.

How do you know that?

I know.

It hurts me when you speak of him, dear.

You know how terrible he's been to me.

I thought you hated him?

JAMISON: I don't know how I feel about anybody anymore.

Even me?

Jamison, darling, you do love me,

I know that.

I wouldn't ask you to go away

if I didn't know that you loved me.

Oh, Jamison it will be so marvelous.

There's a whole other world.

Not like this.

Beautiful.

Even time is different.

It couldn't be.

Time is the same everywhere.

Only the hours change but that's all.

Where I will take you there is no time.

Am I frightening you darling? I didn't mean to.

All I meant,

all I meant was,

well, people there pay no attention to time.

A minute, an hour or a year,

it's all the same.

It must be very far away.

Never heard of any place like that.

It's a place where the sun,

the warm sun is always shining.

You'll love it there Jamison.

Truly you will.

It's a place with special people.

Does this place have a name?

Of course, darling, all places do.

Well, what is it?

Not till you tell me if you'll come.

It's my secret place.

After all, I don't want you to run back and tell your father.

Well, would you leave if I were to say no?

Would you leave without me?

I must.

JAMISON: When?

I can't stay much longer.

I don't want you to go.

Then come with me.

Nora will, I'm positive of that.

It'd be just the three of us.

Just as it was when you were little, darling, only better.

Do you remember how happy we were?

Oh darling, I cry every night when I think of--

you and Nora in that dreadful school.

Your father won't be able to stop us this time

because we'll play a little trick.

We won't let him know when we're leaving.

You'll never have to return to that school.

When are we going?

Why, tonight.

Yes, tonight.

Say yes, darling.

I want to be with you.

LAURA: Darling.

JAMISON: Yes, I'll go!

Jamison, dear, you'll learn so much so quickly.

It will be well worth what we must go through.

For we shall be together, always.

BARNABAS: Beth insists she doesn't need a doctor.

Barnabas, that, that, animal,

if it is an animal,

he was wearing clothes.

I couldn't have imagined it, could I?

And when he ran away.

He ran like a man.

These will not k*ll him.

EDWARD: What do you mean? What do you possibly mean?

They will not.

Of course they will, nonsense.

I'll look, you stay here.

I don't understand, we're wasting time.

My son is out there somewhere.

Has it ever occurred to you

that if he's run away from the school

he might be with his mother?

Why yes, of course, why didn't I think of that?

She's been trying to get at him since she came back.

Trask has told me that.

Here, you take this g*n and go out.

No.

Go on, I insist.

I don't share your confidence in that cane.

I'll meet you here later.

BARNABAS:Should I have asked him for silver b*ll*ts?

He would have thought me mad

but I'm not.

For the first time since I came to this century

I know why I am here.

A werewolf at Collinwood.

He must be connected somehow to Chris Jennings.

This must be how Chris's curse started.

But where are the clues?

I must find them.

Put them in the mausoleum.

Tomorrow I may know one answer to this riddle.

[ eerie instrumental music ]

Nora.

Nora.

Wherever you are,

come to me.

Come to me.

[ knocking at door ]

EDWARD: Laura!

You come here to k*ll me?

Is he here?

Who?

Is Jamison here?

Jamison?

EDWARD: Is he here Laura?

You do have difficulty with Jamison and Nora, don't you?

One of them always seems to be slipping away from you.

My God, Laura,

there is a monster loose in the woods.

Beth was attacked by a hideous, horrible wolflike thing.

My God, Edward,

why are you standing there?

Why don't you get out there and look for him?

How could you possible come here and threaten me?

If anything has happened to Jamison.

I thought that possibly he was here.

LAURA: Well, go on out there!

If you're lying, Laura,

LAURA: Edward.

You've done it so often

and so convincingly.

Nora.

Nora.

Hear my voice.

Please, Nora.

Hear Mother's voice.

Darling, darling, tonight Jamison

and I are going away.

Come with us.

Come with us, darling.

I will protect you.

Come to me now.

[ wolf howling ]

BARNABAS: You shouldn't still be up Beth.

Is there any news?

Did you see that animal?

Curious.

I thought the first one you'd worry about would be Jamison.

Oh, I'm sorry.

I'm so upset.

Well, I've come back for Quentin.

The more people we have searching

the better our chances are.

Is he here?

No.

Where is he?

I don't know.

I'll look for him upstairs.

No! He's not there.

How do you know that?

He's, he's out in Collinsport.

Oh?

BETH: Don't you believe me?

Yes, I suppose I do.

There's no reason why I shouldn't, is there?

No, there isn't.

It's incredible, he's just disappeared.

If he's taken Jamison,

BARNABAS: Well, I'll go out and keep searching.

Are you sure he's not with his mother?

Yes.

Give me the police please.

No!

EDWARD: What do you mean, no?

BARNABAS: She's in shock, I think.

Oh, I don't know why I said that.

EDWARD: Hello? This is Edward Collins.

When he comes back,

tell Quentin that I want to see him.

I'll be at the cottage.

I'll be there for about an hour.

It's vital that he come there if he can.

If not I'll be at the old house until dawn.

Tell him that he and I must settle Laura tonight,

do you understand?

Thank you very much.

They'll find him.

They'll hunt him down.

God, if he's harmed Jamison!

Nora.

Nora!

Why don't you hear me?

Nora.

Nora.

Mother?

LAURA: Darling, what's the matter?

I don't know.

Don't you feel well?

I've got, I've got a terrible temperature.

Do I?

Perhaps.

JAMISON: I don't wanna be sick.

We won't go away if I'm sick.

Yes, we will.

But not tonight.

I want to go away tonight.

Darling, nothing is going to stop us.

I'll get worse on the trip.

No dear, it will all be over before then.

Do you know what's making me sick?

Yes, dear.

That's why I'm not very worried.

Why don't you do something about it?

I will, I will.

You must go back to bed now dear,

get some sleep.

- I can't. - LAURA: When Nora comes.

Darling, it will be much easier for you than you realize.

I'm afraid.

If I come and sit with you.

Will that help?

Will you be there all the time?

All the time.

[ bat squeaking ]

JAMISON: Will Nora have to get sick like this too?

LAURA: For a little while.

JAMISON: I don't understand why we have to get so sick.

LAURA: Darling, sometimes being sick will open

a whole new life.

You won't remember this,

you'll be so happy dear.

What are you doing here?

[ ominous instrumental music ]

I have come for Jamison.

LAURA: May I have that please?

BARNABAS: I will trade you this for the boy.

Give it to me.

Egyptian, isn't it?

Exceedingly rare piece.

Originally used, if I'm not mistaken,

in the worship of the god Ra.

I care nothing about it's history.

BARNABAS: I don't believe that.

Well, now that you have it,

where is Jamison?

He's not here.

BARNABAS: I saw you take him into that room.

Yes, Laura, I was watching from the window.

Well, if you now he's here

why don't you run back to Collinwood and tell them that?

I prefer to take him with me.

LAURA: What right have you?

I want him to stay alive.

Do you think I'd do him any harm?

BARNABAS: I know you would.

How dare you talk to me like that.

Because I know what you are.

I am Jamison's mother.

And you are nothing but some incredibly distant relative.

Yes, how distant, how distant indeed?

Someone should answer that question.

You can not divert me by attacking me.

LAURA: A simple question is an attack?

Please, talk about yourself.

You would do anything to avoid me getting into that room.

That's right, you won't get my son.

BARNABAS: You've no right to call yourself his mother.

Now, for the last time,

give me the boy.

Don't move, I'm warning you.

I have my tricks,

just as you have yours,

whatever they are.

Now, are you convinced that you can not take my son?

JAMISON: Mama.

Darling.

BARNABAS: Jamison.

Don't come near him.

Quentin, you've come to say good bye.

He's delirious.

LAURA: Just stay away from him!

JAMISON: Don't worry about Quentin.

He's not gonna hurt you,

he told me.

Jamison.

JAMISON: My head!

Oh darling.

Darling, you'll be alright, you won't remember any of this,

I promise you that.

You must go back to bed now dear.

He needs to go to a doctor.

LAURA: How dare you tell me what to do.

You're not in charge of me or my son.

I'm putting myself in charge.

LAURA: Don't touch him!

And no more of your tricks!

Remember, you have got no mind!

Stop! Stop it this minute!

He doesn't want to go with you!

Jamison, no!

You'll pay for this.

Before this night is over,

I will see to it that you pay.
