Script

       Wide shot of the field with the caption “February 1941”. War sirens can be heard as Georgia and Robin run across it, the camera panning. They look panicked and breathless. They reach the shelter and climb down, into the bunker. After a few moments, their screams are heard. Inside the bunker their blood is splattered across the walls.
TITLES, CUT TO PRESENT DAY
Lewis: It was in the War sometime, an air raid apparently. A brother and sister fled to this exact shelter, to supposed sanctuary. Waiting inside was a much darker fate.
Julia: frightened
       But that was years ago, right? There’s nothing here now, is there?
Lewis: Who knows?
Robert: catching on to Julia’s discomfort
       I heard that the killer tore them apart, limb by limb, before leaving them to rot in the beds we’re in now…
Julia: crossly
       Why did you even drag us here? That’s disgusting. PAUSE. What do you think, Darcey? PAUSE. Darcey?
Lewis: pulls blanket where Darcey is supposed to be lying, her dead body falls out
Julia: screams as screen fades to black
