London After Midnight

Miss Smithson, the New Maid:
Honest, Sir James... they're dead people from the grave! Vampires is what they are!

Sir.James Hamlin:
Professor Burke is to be our house-guest, Williams. Have rooms prepared for him.

Professor Edward C. Burke:
It's unnerving, Mr. Hibbs! The new maid swears to your Uncle that she saw living dead people in the Balfour house!

Sir.James Hamlin:
Burke, I've called you in again because I believe these strange people leasing Balfour's house link up with his death.

Professor Edward C. Burke:
We found his note... and his own pistol beside him! That's suicide, isn't it?

Sir.James Hamlin:
Then what can it all mean? Mysterious people! Lights! Weird noises! And come... see this!

Professor Edward C. Burke:
Lucille, I am going to reveal to you that your father did not die by suicide!

Lucille Balfour:
You can't mean that someone killed my father!

Professor Edward C. Burke:
am going to ask you to put yourself in my hands... to do whatever I say... no matter how trying it may be.

Professor Edward C. Burke:
I want you to promise to keep this a secret... from everyone.

Lucille Balfour:
Mr. Burke, you make me feel that I should trust you... that you are my friend.

Arthur Hibbs:
What was he saying to you?

Lucille Balfour:
I can't tell you! Please don't ask me!

Arthur Hibbs:
I don't trust him! Why wouldn't he let Uncle send for the police last night?

Arthur Hibbs:
And now he is getting you under his spell!

Lucille Balfour:
Oh, Arthur... he says that someone killed my father!

Professor Edward C. Burke:
Watch my eye and think... think hard. You were in this room that night, remember?

Professor Edward C. Burke:
Someone was after your nephew! Or maybe... me!

Luna, Bat Girl:
Remember... Lucille... you... are... doing... this... for... your... father.

Luna, Bat Girl:
Aw, stop kicking! We got more for doing this than we'd earn in a month at the theatre!

Miss Smithson, the New Maid:
I - locked her in there -

Miss Smithson, the New Maid:
Oh, sir... it was 'orrible! Miss Lucille was bidding me good-night, - --

Miss Smithson, the New Maid:
- and then, sir I screamed, and frightened 'im! And out of the window 'e flew!

Professor Edward C. Burke:
Smithson, have you been drinking?

Miss Smithson, the New Maid:
Oh, no, sir! If I 'ave... I 'opes I chokes on the next one!

Sir.James Hamlin:
Burke... look! It is Roger Balfour!

Sir.James Hamlin:
Come, Burke! We're helpless before such creatures as these!

Arthur Hibbs:
For one who doesn't believe in vampires, you've taken a sudden interest in them!

Professor Edward C. Burke:
Perhaps it's for the same reason that you did, Mr. Hibbs!

Professor Edward C. Burke:
Be brave, my dear. Follow my instructions tonight.

Professor Edward C. Burke:
Young man, I'll take one of your cigars... and have a little talk with you.

Professor Edward C. Burke:
I've suspected you for a long time, Hibbs.

Arthur Hibbs:
Yes? And I've suspected you!

Professor Edward C. Burke:
Someone was after your nephew! Or maybe... me!

Professor Edward C. Burke:
I want to know where you've been all night, Williams!

Williams, Balfour's Butler:
I was in bed. The shot awakened me. I put this on and rushed up, sir.

Lucille Balfour:
I'm terribly frightened, Sir James! A voice keeps calling to me from the garden!

Lucille Balfour:
It sounded exactly like my father calling... 'Lucy, Lucy'!

Professor Edward C. Burke:
Now, don't worry, Miss Lucille. If it really is anything... we'll take care of it.
