[the group is huddled in the conservatory, Nell, Theo, and Markway are asleep as Luke enters and takes a drink from a liquor bottle, when the door suddenly slams shut by itself... waking everyone up!]

Dr. John Markway:
[to Luke] Why aren't you upstairs?

Luke Sanderson:
I needed a drink.

[suddenly there are sounds of wind blowing and then distant yet distinct footsteps are heard]

Dr. John Markway:
Grace!

Luke Sanderson:
Wait a minute! It's nowhere near the nursery... it's down here,

Theodora:
Seems we've been on this kick before.

Eleanor Lance:
Next vacation I must really go somewhere else!

[the pounding becomes louder and closer]

Eleanor Lance:
[thinking; voice-over] It knows my name, this time it knows my name!

Dr. John Markway:
I have to go out there.

Eleanor Lance:
[shouting] No, No! It hasn't hurt me. Why should it hurt her?

Dr. John Markway:
She might try to do something about it!

[the pounding stops]

Eleanor Lance:
Is it over, Theo? Is it?

Theodora:
No, I'm still cold. It's going to start everything all over again!

[the pounding resumes violently and loudly against the closed door]

Eleanor Lance:
[screaming] It can't get in! It can't get in! Don't let it get in!

[the pounding stops and the door knob jiggles]

Eleanor Lance:
[whimpering] God, it knows I'm here!

[the door begins to buckle and bend in on itself, Luke in his horror drops his bottle]

Luke Sanderson:
Doc... I'll let you have the house cheap!

[the bulging door returns to normal, the wind is heard blowing again. Soon the pounding footsteps resume and head upstairs]

Eleanor Lance:
[thinking to herself; voice-over] Go on and on and come back again until it finds me! On and on and on until it finds me!
