The Haunting1999

Eleanor "Nell" Vance:
This house, who built it? Who lived here?

Dr. David Marrow:
Well actually that makes a very good bedtime story. Once upon a time, there was a king who built a castle. His name was Hugh Crain. 130 years ago, towns like Concord and Manchester were the centre of American industry, that's where Crain made a fortune on the backs of workers in his textile mills. Now this man could have anything he wanted, but what he wanted was another thing. It was a house filled with the laughter of children.

Eleanor "Nell" Vance:
That's why there are all the carvings.

Dr. David Marrow:
He married the most beautiful girl in town, called Renee, and he built her this house, at least some of it.

Theo:
God, it sounds like a fairytale or something.

Dr. David Marrow:
Well that's where the fairytale ends. Hugh and Renee never had children. They all died at birth. And a few years later, Renee passed away and Crain became a total recluse. But, he kept on building. Building room upon room as if he was building for the familiy he would never have. No one had seen Crain for years. But the townspeople said they could hear sounds coming from the old house. Sounds of children.
