Short filmTranscript
00:01:00Soon, my love.
00:01:21Soon, my love.
00:01:51This will be the last one.
00:02:00Now you can come back to me.
00:02:15William Coulthard!
00:02:18Put that down!
00:02:48Leave him!
00:03:19The condemned are about to walk the gate.
00:03:31Philip.
00:03:41Are you afraid, boy?
00:03:44Are you afraid, boy?
00:03:48Keep your mouth shut.
00:03:51The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want.
00:04:18Save your words, priest.
00:04:20I won't tell you again.
00:04:28You will come to fear, my lord.
00:04:32Show some bloody respect.
00:04:42Special day, this one, William.
00:04:46Very special.
00:04:49You should feel honoured.
00:04:52You ain't getting a robe.
00:04:55You're getting something new.
00:05:04Today, here at Bishop's Gate,
00:05:08we are honoured to be the first British facility to pioneer
00:05:13the latest in modern execution practices from across the Atlantic
00:05:19The electric chair.
00:05:23I expected more of a crowd.
00:05:25A man as famous as me.
00:05:27And that's why this is a private send-off.
00:05:31Now, William,
00:05:33you give my regards to the devil when you get where you're going.
00:05:41William Colcott.
00:05:43You have been found guilty of the murders of 28 women.
00:05:47Now, fuck all of you.
00:05:50You accept your fate in the same disgusting manner
00:05:53you subjected your victims to theirs.
00:05:55This world should be well rid of you.
00:05:57Electricity shall pass through your body until you are dead.
00:06:01If you have any last words,
00:06:03you shall hear them now.
00:06:17May God have mercy on your soul.
00:06:20God can't have my soul.
00:06:46And so ends the life of William Colcott.
00:07:46A successful first execution for the chair?
00:07:49I'd hardly call that successful, Governor.
00:07:52William Colcott is dead.
00:07:54Is the machine designed to make him suffer like that?
00:07:57Dropping from a rope does seem faster.
00:08:00William Colcott is dead.
00:08:02The machine did what the machine was supposed to do.
00:08:04And that is all.
00:08:16Come on.
00:08:47Lovely, Mr. Layton.
00:08:49If you could just hold still, we're nearly finished.
00:08:56Thank you.
00:09:02Lovely.
00:09:04Mr. Layton, you will have the pleasure of the rest of your life.
00:09:07Thank you.
00:09:10Lovely.
00:09:12Mr. Layton, you will have the photograph by the end of the week.
00:09:16And it goes without saying you have our deepest condolences.
00:09:20Thank you.
00:09:31What's next?
00:09:33Bishopgate Prison.
00:09:35A prisoner?
00:09:37A prisoner?
00:09:39Must have been a notorious one.
00:09:41Committed a post-mortem photograph.
00:09:44And after that, the most important evening of our lives.
00:09:48Right. You pack up.
00:09:50I'll deal with the undertakers.
00:09:54Gentlemen.
00:09:56Gentlemen, you may come in.
00:09:58Do keep up.
00:10:00Can't keep the dead waiting, eh?
00:10:03Remember.
00:10:05You never get a second chance.
00:10:08It's a first impression.
00:10:10No.
00:10:12Today is going to be a marvellous day, Alice.
00:10:24Ladbroke Photographers, we've expected.
00:10:28What's her name again?
00:10:30Ladbroke. Post-mortem photographer.
00:10:33And my associate, Emma Wicks.
00:10:36Oh.
00:10:38You're the corpse people.
00:10:55Shut the door.
00:11:01There's no place for a young lady.
00:11:04Especially when dressed like that.
00:11:07Miss Wicks here.
00:11:09I'm a photographer and lead device technician.
00:11:11And I'm more than capable, sir.
00:11:18Perfect timing for once, George.
00:11:22Show the corpse people to the morgue, will you?
00:11:25We're post-mortem photographers, not corpse people.
00:11:29Oh, so sorry.
00:11:31George.
00:11:33Search the corpse photographers and show them to the morgue, will you?
00:11:37Is it just dead people you take pictures of,
00:11:40or do you do living people as well?
00:11:42Well, we are essentially post-mortem photographers.
00:11:45We'd like to say that it is not smiles that we capture, but souls.
00:11:49Bit of a grim job.
00:11:51Look who's talking.
00:11:59Come on.
00:12:15Emma, do come along.
00:12:19Are they all murderers in here?
00:12:21Mostly.
00:12:23All sat for the chair for one thing or another.
00:12:25That's why they're still here.
00:12:27What's that?
00:12:28No, the electric chair.
00:12:30We've been chosen to test a new electric chair from America
00:12:34before they take it up the road to Pentonville.
00:12:37Execution by electrocution, eh?
00:12:39That's bold.
00:12:41It's quick.
00:12:42Too quick, if you ask me.
00:12:44Should make the bastards suffer.
00:12:47Surprised they chose us to test it.
00:12:50Governor was well chuffed about it, though.
00:12:53It used to be a bigger jail, but it was rotting the walls.
00:12:56They had to stop using most of the place, it got so bad.
00:12:59They said it wasn't good to breathe it in.
00:13:02A couple of the guards got consumption.
00:13:05Only 30 cells left, most of them empty.
00:13:08Just a few prisoners for us to worry about.
00:13:11What's this black muck?
00:13:14The bastard has rotten us all.
00:13:17Hmm.
00:13:19Who was this fellow?
00:13:21William Colcott.
00:13:23Killed a lot of people.
00:13:25I hate to say it, could have been nearly 28.
00:13:2828?
00:13:29Police said he was carving up some poor lass when they caught him.
00:13:32The worst part?
00:13:34His wife's rotten corpse was laid out in the middle of it all.
00:13:37She'd been dead some time.
00:13:39God knows what he was up to with her.
00:13:42Hmm, charming fellow.
00:13:44Set the camera up for me, would you?
00:13:46Very good.
00:13:55Thank you.
00:14:06The old man always take you along on these things?
00:14:10Er, he's my uncle.
00:14:14Can't say it's a place for a young lady.
00:14:17You've gone quite pale, are you all right?
00:14:21Yes, I just need to step outside for a moment.
00:14:24The camera's ready.
00:14:26Very good.
00:14:28Very good.
00:14:30Now, Mr Colcott,
00:14:33I want you to remain perfectly still.
00:14:41I have packed us up.
00:14:45You're all right.
00:14:47You're not yourself, are you?
00:14:49Yes, Uncle.
00:14:51I just need you to catch my breath.
00:14:53Well, I don't blame you.
00:14:56Awful place.
00:14:58Now, from morgue to mansion.
00:15:01Okay?
00:15:02Yes.
00:15:03Yes, lots of preparation to do.
00:15:05Come on.
00:15:10Is there a life after death?
00:15:16Is there an invisible world that surrounds us?
00:15:23These days, those questions are mainly being asked
00:15:27by intrepid explorers like yourselves,
00:15:30the members of the paranormal society.
00:15:34Science...
00:15:36Science has given us some clues that you may be right.
00:15:40I mean, you think of William Herschel, for instance,
00:15:43who discovered in the ordinary spectrum of light
00:15:47that there were invisible wavelengths.
00:15:50He found the infrared.
00:15:53The following year, the Germans found the ultraviolet.
00:15:56There are hints there.
00:15:58But has science given you the tools
00:16:02for your continuing examinations?
00:16:05The answer is no.
00:16:08Until now.
00:16:11Gentlemen...
00:16:15I give you the Atmosizer.
00:16:24Using cutting-edge science,
00:16:26we will demonstrate how our device will not only call upon spirits
00:16:31from the invisible ether,
00:16:33but attract them to the very machine itself.
00:16:36You see, I hypothesize
00:16:39that spirits are a form of energy,
00:16:41much like light itself,
00:16:43but they are confined to a very narrow wavelength.
00:16:47Now, the science shows that energy is attracted to energy,
00:16:50so when we pass electrical energy through this machine
00:16:55and temporarily store it,
00:16:57we create a magnetic field,
00:16:59and that, in turn, electrifies the atmosphere,
00:17:03thinning the veins that separate the wavelength,
00:17:09thus enabling the spirits to move.
00:17:15In other words, gentlemen,
00:17:17this machine can bring the spirits to you.
00:17:23We've just seen a man with a planchette and a board with letters on it.
00:17:28He claims it can be used to communicate with spirits as well.
00:17:31I must say, it looks a lot simpler.
00:17:37What was it called?
00:17:39A Ouija board, with the greatest respect, gentlemen.
00:17:43That is a board game for children, sir.
00:17:47This is cutting-edge science.
00:17:52This will make possible the greatest discoveries of modern science.
00:18:00That's quite a claim.
00:18:06If I wished to communicate with a spirit, how would I do it?
00:18:12Oh, well, let us show you, sir.
00:18:15First of all, we use the atmosizer to electrify the atmosphere.
00:18:21Then, we use this very special recording device.
00:18:27It is our version of a wax cylinder recorder.
00:18:31It can pick up very high frequencies.
00:18:34In short, it hears things our ears can't.
00:18:37You ask the spirit your question,
00:18:39replies are recorded and played back almost immediately.
00:18:43We call it electrical voice phenomenon.
00:18:47We call it electrical voice phenomenon, or EVP.
00:18:52Understand, gentlemen, what we are offering you here.
00:18:56You will be able to verify that there is a life after death.
00:19:01We are giving you a means of attracting the spirits
00:19:05and communicating to them consistently, verifiably.
00:19:12And it turns this society into, with due respect,
00:19:17something more than the accumulation of whispers, stories,
00:19:24into the very forefront of modern science.
00:19:30What led you to the theory that spirits are attracted to electricity?
00:19:35Ah, well, I noticed that static electricity
00:19:42is documented in several investigations
00:19:46where there may have been a spirit present.
00:19:49And were these your investigations?
00:19:51Oh, no, no, no, no. Not mine at all, no.
00:19:55Oh, God.
00:19:58Wait, wait a minute, sir.
00:20:00This machine is grounded in science.
00:20:03We're on the verge of a field test,
00:20:06and all we need is the right opportunity.
00:20:10Is this what you do for a living?
00:20:12We own Ladbroke Photography.
00:20:15It pays the bills and enables us to fulfill our true vocation
00:20:19as scientists and inventors.
00:20:24Back to the drawing board, eh?
00:20:27Good effort, Olsen.
00:20:29Perhaps a little more testing before you call on us again.
00:20:43I tried to tell you.
00:20:48Pack the damn thing up.
00:20:50It just needs a few tweaks. We can try again.
00:20:53Emma, you never get a second chance at a first impression.
00:21:00I think I'm going to get a drink.
00:21:04And maybe more than one.
00:21:16What's in the bag there?
00:21:18Fathering the potatoes.
00:21:21Broken dreams, sir. Just broken dreams.
00:21:25Spit it out, then. It's not something strange, is it?
00:21:29Sir, I'm a photographer,
00:21:31and in the bag there are parts for a camera that does not work.
00:21:35Ah. Good.
00:21:37I thought you might be one of the ghost men.
00:21:40Ghost men?
00:21:42Strange folk they are, but they spend good money.
00:21:46Whilst now we have some of the best spirits in the city.
00:21:50Good, good. Very good.
00:21:53Best thing there.
00:22:14What was it you called that thing?
00:22:18Oh.
00:22:20Your companion is inside.
00:22:23Yeah, yeah. Machine. What did you call it?
00:22:26The Atmosizer.
00:22:28Terrible name. I'll have to change it.
00:22:31If you ever get it working, that is.
00:22:33It does work. It was just a little fault.
00:22:35I'm still trying to decide what you are.
00:22:38Sorry?
00:22:40You're either a genius who just doesn't quite realize the full potential of your idea,
00:22:45or you're a con man trying to peddle your sham inventions around for profit and fame.
00:22:51My niece and I are not con men.
00:22:54We are scientists trying to prove the greatest truth of all,
00:22:58that there is a life after death.
00:23:00Hold on. You get that thing working,
00:23:03you get proof of it actually being useful,
00:23:05you can come see us again.
00:23:07Until then, you can quit your day job.
00:23:16Uncle.
00:23:26Leave the thing alone.
00:23:29Before it burns the house down.
00:23:36I'm not going to do it.
00:23:39I'm not going to do it.
00:23:41I'm not going to do it.
00:23:43I'm not going to do it.
00:23:49Emma.
00:23:53I can no longer let you waste your life the way I have wasted mine.
00:23:58You haven't wasted anything.
00:24:00This is our life's work.
00:24:02Yes. A waste of time.
00:24:04A waste of life.
00:24:06A waste of the little inheritance that we have.
00:24:11Now I know that when you were little I promised you that
00:24:15if we worked hard together
00:24:18and followed in the footsteps of the giants like Newton,
00:24:23perhaps one day our names would be up there on the pantheon of greatness.
00:24:31But the future has arrived.
00:24:34And I see Westinghouse,
00:24:37Edison, Tesla.
00:24:42And I know in my heart of hearts
00:24:45there will never be a Ladbroke.
00:24:48And as long as I hold you back, there won't be a Wicks either.
00:24:53There will be.
00:24:56I've nearly removed all the burnt parts from the machine, if you want to take a look.
00:25:00No, no, no, Emma.
00:25:02No.
00:25:05It's time to put aside this foolish dream.
00:25:18It's not foolish.
00:25:20It's not foolish.
00:25:34You awake in there, Shorty?
00:25:42What are you doing down there?
00:25:45Please, just kill me now.
00:25:50Don't let him take me.
00:25:54Patience, boy.
00:25:57This time tomorrow you'll be dead.
00:26:00That shiny new chair is all ready for you.
00:26:20No, no, no.
00:26:50No.
00:27:20No.
00:27:51Maybe the main coil overheater...
00:27:53Emma, just...
00:27:55Just concentrate on what you're doing, please.
00:27:58Right now we need to focus on what we can do well.
00:28:03And find some way of paying off some of these bills.
00:28:10Uncle?
00:28:11Emma!
00:28:13Uncle, look at this.
00:28:17Ah.
00:28:19Ah, sir.
00:28:20Double exposure. Just print it up again.
00:28:28I can hear your anger.
00:28:34Your mother used to look at me exactly that way when she was mad at me.
00:28:37I do apologize.
00:28:39I was wrong. I beg your pardon.
00:28:43She was like you. She was tenacious.
00:28:46Never gave up.
00:28:48Even when the cause was hopeless.
00:28:51Am I much like her?
00:28:52Oh, yes, in every way.
00:28:54From the moment she was born...
00:28:58...we just knew there was something special about her.
00:29:03From the moment you were born...
00:29:06...we saw exactly the same thing.
00:29:13Ah.
00:29:15It's probably a fault of the camera, by the way.
00:29:18Better clean it up and...
00:29:21...go to the governor and see if we can get...
00:29:24...at least a penny or two for the job we did yesterday.
00:29:27No. Uncle, look at this.
00:29:36It can't be the camera. I've checked it.
00:29:38There's no dust or fungus on the lens.
00:29:42Is there anything like this on any of the other pictures?
00:29:48No.
00:29:55My God.
00:30:00My God, this is it. Pack up. Pack everything.
00:30:03We need everything. Everything up. Everything.
00:30:05For what?
00:30:07A field test.
00:30:09A field test.
00:30:11We're going to have an opportunity to show that we are right.
00:30:17This is it?
00:30:19Okay.
00:30:21I removed most of the scorched bit...
00:30:23...but I still don't know why it bleeds like that.
00:30:25Well, I think I do.
00:30:27The machine.
00:30:29The machine needs something to store more energy with.
00:30:33It is actually producing more power...
00:30:35...than it can handle at the moment.
00:30:37I think if we use bigger coils, it may help.
00:30:40Now, first of all, I'll go to the governor...
00:30:42...and I will explain to him.
00:30:44Governor, we need to retake the photographs...
00:30:46...which, in a way, is, of course, true.
00:30:48Do you think they've seen anything?
00:30:50No, I don't think they have.
00:30:52This is probably what they call a passive manifestation.
00:30:55Nobody would notice anything...
00:30:56...unless they were actually looking for it.
00:30:58But you, you realize what you've done?
00:31:01You may have caught a glimpse...
00:31:04...into an unknown world...
00:31:06...and you discovered that world.
00:31:08You discovered it!
00:31:12Right! Shirts!
00:31:14Clean shirts, yes.
00:31:15Now, I've got a clean shirt.
00:31:16Where's my collar?
00:31:17Dammit, where's the collar?
00:31:22Jody!
00:31:23Jody!
00:31:26You better be dead in there, or Bogota...
00:31:32We're all gonna die here!
00:31:34Get back in your bunk, twins!
00:31:37Another one's dead, then.
00:31:39It's getting worse, sir.
00:31:41They're just offing themselves in painful ways.
00:31:45There's a real bad feeling about the place.
00:31:48Like there's something else.
00:31:50Every man down there is sentenced to death.
00:31:52Men on the edge sometimes take matters into their own hands.
00:31:55Less work for us, less expense for the state.
00:32:00So, that leaves us with just three prisoners.
00:32:04Good.
00:32:05Have John contact the medical school to come and pick up the body.
00:32:08And not in the state that body is in, sir.
00:32:11It's already rotten.
00:32:15I shall hear no more talk of this superstitious nonsense.
00:32:18Dispose of the body in the furnace, then we'll be done with it.
00:32:23Hey, Governor.
00:32:24Sir, I don't wish to speak out of turn...
00:32:28For the love of all that holy man, speak!
00:32:31Philip and myself would feel a lot better if we could get Father Matthews here.
00:32:36Just to bless the place or something.
00:32:41Have John sent for him, then.
00:32:59Come.
00:33:19If you could just take a look.
00:33:21I can do a blessing.
00:33:24If it will calm the prisoners and my two guards here, please do, Father.
00:33:31Shame us, Father.
00:33:34There's evil down here.
00:33:48Though I walk in the midst of trouble, you preserve my life.
00:33:52You stretch out your hand...
00:34:02Against the wrath of my enemies.
00:34:07And your right hand delivers me.
00:34:15Quick! Get him upstairs!
00:34:21Quick!
00:34:36You must let us take you to hospital, Father.
00:34:41No.
00:34:43I just need to rest a moment.
00:34:47Father, what is it that's down there? What did you see?
00:34:56Evil.
00:35:02I beg your pardon, sir.
00:35:04I've been speaking with George and Phil these last few days, and, well...
00:35:08You see the wife? She used a medium a few months back.
00:35:12Bit of an odd-seller. Well-respected, mind.
00:35:15What is your point, John?
00:35:17Well, he's an expert in this sort of thing.
00:35:20I hope you don't mind, but the wife spoke to him about it all, and, well...
00:35:24He wants to take a look around.
00:35:26Today.
00:35:28This is turning into a bloody circus.
00:35:33At noon, sir.
00:35:46Excuse me. Mr. Abbotton, is it?
00:35:48I am, indeed.
00:35:50I'm John Chapman. My wife spoke with you.
00:35:52Yes, of course.
00:35:54John?
00:35:56Mr. Abbotton.
00:35:57Welcome to Bishopgate. I'm Erwin Forsyth, the governor here.
00:36:00So, tell me about the problem.
00:36:02I'm not sure about all this.
00:36:04Let's talk about what it is exactly.
00:36:06Well, it's a bit of a mystery.
00:36:08It's a bit of a mystery.
00:36:10It's a bit of a mystery.
00:36:12I'm not sure about all this.
00:36:13Let's talk about what it is exactly you can do for us.
00:36:16Ah, governor! Governor! Just the man I wanted to see.
00:36:19You're the photographers.
00:36:20John, remember, this is a jail, a secure one.
00:36:23Who sent for you?
00:36:24Nobody, sir, but it is about the photographs.
00:36:27Well, I'm dealing with more pressing matters.
00:36:29I know you.
00:36:31You're the inventors.
00:36:33Inventors?
00:36:34No, Mr. Abbotton, they're just photographers, and rude ones at that.
00:36:38Sir, I beg you, look at the photographs.
00:36:43What am I looking at here?
00:36:45Badly taken photographs of a dead prisoner.
00:36:47At first we thought it was fungus on the lens, sir, but it is not.
00:36:51It is something quite different.
00:36:54Now, I beg you, sir, allow us to re-photograph the subject.
00:36:58No, that just won't be possible.
00:37:00Let me see those.
00:37:06You took these when?
00:37:08A couple of days ago.
00:37:10Something happened.
00:37:12You've seen something.
00:37:13I don't know what you're talking about, girl.
00:37:16Governor, we would formally like to offer our services as paranormal investigators.
00:37:24A second ago you were photographers, now you're paranormal investigators?
00:37:28The world's gone mad.
00:37:29Whatever your services are, they are not required.
00:37:32Now, good day.
00:37:33Nobody leaves.
00:37:34What?
00:37:35It is imperative that nobody leaves until I am done.
00:37:37Now, you just wait one moment.
00:37:38Does that matter?
00:37:39Has anybody else come or gone since the disturbance started?
00:37:43Well, we've been home to our wives and back.
00:37:46Just you all and Father Matthews and you here.
00:37:48Well, where is this Father Matthews?
00:37:50He's...
00:37:52He's in my office.
00:37:54He was attacked by something.
00:37:57He's resting.
00:37:58I must speak with him.
00:38:03Nobody leaves?
00:38:05I suppose I better search you then.
00:38:08Search us?
00:38:09Can you not take the word of an English gentleman?
00:38:13Father Matthews, this is...
00:38:14I know who he is.
00:38:23This was the work of one of Satan's demons.
00:38:27None of your little parlor tricks will work.
00:38:30Only the word of the Lord.
00:38:32Doesn't appear to have worked out too well for you so far.
00:38:37Have you been scratched anywhere?
00:38:40Show me your arms.
00:38:43I would think even someone like you would know how to properly address a man of the cloth.
00:38:48Father, please.
00:38:50Show me your arms so I can see if your God abandoned you
00:38:53and allowed you to be attacked by a demonic spirit.
00:39:03I see no signs of a demon, Father.
00:39:07You will see.
00:39:10Go down there and you'll see.
00:39:12Okay, Father.
00:39:13Better get to with my parlor tricks.
00:39:16Governor, I want the jail locked down.
00:39:18Locked down?
00:39:19Yes.
00:39:20Nobody leaves, nobody enters.
00:39:21Should be quite straightforward for a prison.
00:39:24Welcome to the White Hall Detention Education Center.
00:39:27I'm Terry Uhlman.
00:39:29What brings you here tonight?
00:39:31I'm a look-out from a former exile.
00:39:33I was only here as a refresher,
00:39:34and decided I needed a place to first catch my study.
00:39:37It's been a while since studying.
00:39:40Are you a fortune teller?
00:39:44No, I'm a fortune teller.
00:39:45Here.
00:39:46Are you a fortune teller?
00:39:47A fortune teller says when he is about to kill me
00:39:49or is about to sense a horrible foe about to surely happen.
00:39:52Is this the exact area?
00:39:56Yes.
00:40:00I want prints of any photographs you take.
00:40:04The last man executed here, who was he?
00:40:08The prisoner's name was William Colcott.
00:40:12Quiet, you!
00:40:16You knew the prisoner?
00:40:20No.
00:40:24Not really.
00:40:28Was he God-fearing? He struck a man of God, is that a clue?
00:40:32You assume too much, Frederick.
00:40:36You, guard, take me to the execution room.
00:40:40Nothing will give me greater pleasure.
00:40:50Uncle?
00:40:54I need... I need to not be in here.
00:41:10Are you all right, Ems?
00:41:14Yes. I'm sorry, Uncle. I just had to get out.
00:41:18The air, it's...
00:41:22heavy down here.
00:41:26It is. It's a miserable place.
00:41:30Well, get your breath back. We won't be here long.
00:41:34And we will never find a better place to test the old atomizer.
00:41:38So, this Colcott,
00:41:42how did he face his execution?
00:41:46I don't know. I've never seen anything like it.
00:41:50If I didn't know better, I'd have thought he wanted to die.
00:41:54He didn't die quickly.
00:41:58He screamed.
00:42:02He burned.
00:42:06How long was he kept in jail before he was executed?
00:42:10Only a week. Judge wanted it done quick. Well, quicker than usual.
00:42:14They bumped up the list as a priority. Why?
00:42:18Papers, probably. Ever since the Ripper, the press are desperate for another maniac.
00:42:22Killed the man, killed the press.
00:42:26Was he buried on consecrated ground?
00:42:30Well, usually we sell the prisoners' corpses to the medical school up the road, straight after they drop.
00:42:34William was a bit cooked, so we chucked them in the jail furnace.
00:42:38May as well finish cooking him, the governor said.
00:42:42Have the governor meet me outside cell 13.
00:42:46And I shall need a table.
00:42:50I require your assistance.
00:42:58What do you want us to do? Just to wait.
00:43:02One table. Had to borrow it from the governor's office. He wasn't happy.
00:43:06No, he was not.
00:43:10I need all of you to create a circle.
00:43:14What is this, an exorcism?
00:43:18No, no. An exorcism is a religious practice. That's not what I do.
00:43:22I merely require everyone's presence to communicate.
00:43:26You're here to get rid of this thing, not converse with it.
00:43:30Spirits want people. People with personalities, insecurities, fears.
00:43:34I must get to know them before I can do anything else.
00:43:38You. You're no exception.
00:44:08Yes.
00:44:16If there are any spirits who wish to make contact,
00:44:22please use me as a vessel.
00:44:28What holds you here, spirit?
00:44:32Knock twice.
00:44:36Like this.
00:44:40If your name is William Colcott.
00:44:52William Colcott.
00:44:56Murderer of innocent people.
00:45:00If it is you who lingers here,
00:45:04stop cowering in the shadows and show yourself.
00:45:08I need all of your energy.
00:45:12Do not break the circle.
00:45:16This may work well for the superstitious, but not here.
00:45:20Whatever it is you do, Aberton, just do it.
00:45:24Philip?
00:45:28Mr. Aberton,
00:45:32there is another way of generating a psychically receptive atmosphere.
00:45:38Ah. Your machine.
00:45:42And does it work now?
00:45:46Does it work, sir? It will give you everything that you require and more.
00:45:50I may be able to work with it.
00:45:54Set up your device in the morgue. And wait for me there.
00:46:02Come on. Come on.
00:46:06Now, which way is the morgue?
00:46:10Now, double-check those coils.
00:46:14And make sure we've got some really heavy-gauge wire, number six.
00:46:24This is it, uncle.
00:46:28Yes. Shh, shh, shh.
00:46:32Don't want this Aberton fellow to think we're just a pair of amateurs.
00:46:36But we are.
00:46:44I will now switch the machine on.
00:46:48We will now
00:46:52allow the exerciser
00:46:56to charge the air for a while.
00:47:00Assuming it works,
00:47:04if I tell you to switch that thing off,
00:47:08you do it. No questions.
00:47:12Is that understood? You're the expert.
00:47:16Sometimes the traditional ways
00:47:20are still the best ways.
00:47:36What is that?
00:47:40Threads from a sacred cloth.
00:47:44A way we can see the spirit as it enters to join us.
00:47:48Voodoo.
00:47:52Voodoo.
00:47:56I come to the table with state-of-the-art, cutting-edge science.
00:48:00And you bring
00:48:04wah-wah, mumbo-jumbo, and a dangling bit of string.
00:48:08Call it what you will, but at least my methods have a proven track record.
00:48:12Unlike your machine. My machine is... Gentlemen!
00:48:16Are we here to make contact, or are we here to argue?
00:48:24The machine is working.
00:48:28It's recording. Please, be my guest.
00:48:32I shall observe.
00:48:46If there is anyone there
00:48:50who would like to make contact,
00:48:54please make yourself known.
00:49:02What do you want?
00:49:10What is your name?
00:49:16Are you William Colcott?
00:49:20Switch off that thing. Now.
00:49:24Can you play that back? Yes.
00:49:28It's recording.
00:49:32Please, be my guest.
00:49:36I shall observe.
00:49:40If there is anyone there
00:49:44who would like to make contact,
00:49:48please make yourself known.
00:49:58What do you want?
00:50:04What is your name?
00:50:08Are you William Colcott?
00:50:12Switch that thing off. Now.
00:50:16It works. It works!
00:50:20It works!
00:50:28Thank you.
00:50:32Thank you.
00:50:38It's over? Not at all.
00:50:42I need all you have on this William Colcott.
00:50:46So it is him, then.
00:50:50We should be up there.
00:50:54This is my lifetime's work,
00:50:58and this sanctimonious witch doctor
00:51:02is probably taking credit for it.
00:51:06The machine worked.
00:51:10It actually worked. Right?
00:51:14You will have your due credit. Don't worry.
00:51:18I'm not worrying. I'm going up there.
00:51:22Guard the fort. I shall be long.
00:51:28What is it exactly that you need?
00:51:32Any of his personal belongings?
00:51:36A piece of jewellery? A book of matches?
00:51:40Anything he may have.
00:51:44John, get in here!
00:51:48Sir.
00:51:52John, get in here!
00:51:56Sir, bring me William Colcott's personals.
00:52:00Yes, sir.
00:52:04Right. Logan.
00:52:08Yes.
00:52:12It's true.
00:52:16It's true.
00:52:20It's true.
00:52:50Looks like a wedding ring.
00:52:54That's exactly what it is.
00:52:58You did not mention my machine. Does it matter?
00:53:02Well, of course it matters. As far as they're concerned,
00:53:06we're contributing nothing to this industry.
00:53:10We're just doing our job.
00:53:14We're just doing our job.
00:53:18We're just doing our job.
00:53:22We're just doing our job.
00:53:26Sir, we're contributing nothing to this investigation.
00:53:30This is not an investigation, Frederick.
00:53:34If you are here for fame and grandeur, then please stay upstairs.
00:53:38Sir, it is not about fame and grandeur.
00:53:42Then what is it about?
00:53:46It is about credit where credit is due, sir.
00:53:50I shall give you credit where I believe it is due.
00:53:56I don't want to leave at the point,
00:54:00but I hope it is now properly made.
00:54:08Something is very wrong here.
00:54:26What is it?
00:54:56Elmo, what the hell are you doing?
00:55:02Do not move.
00:55:12You cannot take her.
00:55:16I see you now.
00:55:20I know what you are.
00:55:26I know what you are.
00:55:38Never.
00:55:56Never.
00:56:16There is no room, B.
00:56:20Why not? You seem to be everywhere else.
00:56:24Well, anyway.
00:56:28How do you feel?
00:56:32I feel hollow.
00:56:36Get in the bed.
00:56:40I will stay here the night
00:56:44as I used to when you were a little one. Do you remember?
00:56:48I think I'm just going to rest for a while.
00:56:52I used to talk to you about your mama, didn't I?
00:56:56You know,
00:57:00I'm sure that she is looking down on you now
00:57:04and thinking, what a marvelous
00:57:08woman my Emma is.
00:57:12I certainly think that.
00:57:16I think you're wonderful.
00:57:20Did I ever actually tell...
00:57:24tell you
00:57:28that I can't do anything without you?
00:57:50You need to rest, Frederick.
00:58:14I do not believe that I shall ever again
00:58:18rest easily after what happened in there.
00:58:22What was that?
00:58:26We were introduced to William James Colcote.
00:58:30Colcote
00:58:34possessed Emma?
00:58:38No. He's nowhere near strong enough to do that.
00:58:42Certainly not to someone like your niece.
00:58:46She's special. Yes, she is.
00:58:50And her safety is my first concern.
00:58:54Oh.
00:58:58Look, there has to be a rational explanation for what happened.
00:59:02Frederick, science cannot explain everything.
00:59:06Perhaps you need to open your mind beyond your limited
00:59:10encounters with the afterlife. Do you know, sir, that
00:59:14your condescension
00:59:18generally annoys me. But in this particular case
00:59:22I rejoice at it. Why?
00:59:26Because anyone who can condescend like that must have a plan.
00:59:30No plan.
00:59:34I thought not. Not yet.
00:59:38But, Frederick, you must leave your machine switched off.
00:59:42For now, at least.
00:59:46Can't risk drawing him out until we're organized.
00:59:50Very well.
01:00:12Frederick.
01:00:42Frederick.
01:01:12Frederick.
01:01:16Frederick.
01:01:20Frederick.
01:01:24Frederick.
01:01:28Mrs. Shepard?
01:01:32My husband didn't come home last night.
01:01:36Where is he? Sleeping or vying over in there again?
01:01:40Hold on.
01:01:44Who in the name of God is ringing that bell?
01:01:48It's George's wife, sir. Well, get rid of her!
01:01:52Begging your pardon, sir, what am I supposed to say to her? She's quite angry.
01:01:56I don't care! Just get rid of her!
01:02:00John Chapman, open this door. I know he's in there.
01:02:04Look, I can't let you in, Marie. We've, uh... We've had a fire.
01:02:08A fire? You expect me to believe that?
01:02:12Where's the smoke? Now, either you open this door
01:02:16or when I leave here, I shall go straight to your wife and tell her all about young Beatrice
01:02:20down the Crown and Sceptre. Oh, I'm sure she'll be very interested.
01:02:24All right, all right. Just hold on.
01:02:40All right, listen. There's something strange going on in here.
01:02:44Right now, George is down in the cells with the Governor and some other people.
01:02:48Now, I'll get him to you when I can. Right, but until then,
01:02:52I need you to hide in the storeroom.
01:02:56Look, if the Governor sees you, it's my job, Marie.
01:03:12Go on. Right, now, please, just wait here
01:03:16till I come and get you, all right?
01:03:22All right.
01:03:38Uncle?
01:03:46Oh!
01:03:50Oh, how did you sleep? Not good.
01:03:54Oh, I wonder why.
01:04:06You all right there?
01:04:10I didn't mean to scare you.
01:04:14You see much of what goes on
01:04:18outside your door?
01:04:22My pain, not mine. Not my business.
01:04:26I'm not a guard. You don't have to fear me.
01:04:30My name is Lucian Abbotton. And you're?
01:04:34Patrick O'Callaghan.
01:04:38Cigarette?
01:04:42Thanks. You see a man named
01:04:46William Colcott passed through here.
01:04:56Dirt man he was.
01:05:00You'd be best off closing the doors and leaving this place.
01:05:04I think that's exactly what he wants us to do.
01:05:08Well?
01:05:12Did you get rid of him last night?
01:05:16Last night? Yes, sir.
01:05:20The flashing light, the sound crackling
01:05:24all night. Is it all done now?
01:05:32Step away from that prisoner!
01:05:36Mr. Abbotton, you have had all night. So is this thing gone?
01:05:40No. You're a fraud, Abbotton.
01:05:44George, have Philip open the doors and take Father Matthews to hospital.
01:05:48I won't spend a minute longer locked in my own jail. With pleasure.
01:05:52So, let's see if I can put this in terms you might understand.
01:05:56These things, especially the nasty ones,
01:06:00they can attach themselves to you, to your very person.
01:06:04As a spirit, it is bound to this place, but
01:06:08it can use you as a way out. Bollocks!
01:06:12He's trying to scare us. He's after
01:06:16more money, that's all. I couldn't possibly scare you any more than you already are.
01:06:20How dare you? Gentlemen, gentlemen, gentlemen.
01:06:24Whether or not we believe Mr. Abbotton, we cannot allow
01:06:28whatever this is to escape these walls. You cannot want
01:06:32to take it home to your wife and your family.
01:06:36I ask you to just stay the course. Here,
01:06:40at least with me, it is confined to these corridors. So you'll have us
01:06:44rot here with these bastards? We stay here until I get rid
01:06:48of it. And I shall.
01:06:52You have until the end of the day.
01:07:02You're going to die.
01:07:06Down here.
01:07:10Like all of us.
01:07:14What's your name?
01:07:18Rufus.
01:07:22I know that given your current situation,
01:07:26you're not going to die.
01:07:30Given your current situation, you may not care about
01:07:34anyone or anything.
01:07:38But I do. I don't even know you
01:07:42and I'm down here keeping your soul safe from an eternal
01:07:46entanglement with evil. Oh, thank God, eh?
01:07:50You should. Thank him, beg him and just about anything
01:07:54else and I'm successful.
01:08:00You'll die. Like us.
01:08:04Not like you. If you're in a place like
01:08:08this, you're going somewhere bad
01:08:12when your number is called.
01:08:16Until then, your soul is in my hands.
01:08:20Better hope I don't drop it.
01:08:24Big man, eh? Big man with big
01:08:28words, ain't ya?
01:08:32With a locked door between us.
01:08:36Oh yeah, big man, eh?
01:08:52You know, it might help if we knew what we were looking for.
01:08:56Abbotton,
01:09:00this dark mystery nonsense may go down well
01:09:04with wealthy housewives, but if we are to work together, you must...
01:09:08Is that what we're doing? Working together?
01:09:12Well, aren't we? You're here because you have to be.
01:09:16We're not lackeys you can just use when you need to. We're investigators like you.
01:09:20You are not like me.
01:09:24Paranormal investigators search for what they believe to be
01:09:28out there. I know what is out there.
01:09:32You shouldn't be searching for it.
01:09:36This
01:09:40was used to communicate. Communicate? With what?
01:09:44That is a question.
01:09:48I would dismiss that
01:09:52man as a complete fraud.
01:09:56Except for one thing.
01:10:00He stole something in our photograph.
01:10:04Oi! What you think you're doing?
01:10:08I need to ask this man some questions. Good luck.
01:10:12Crim's here doesn't know what day of the week it is.
01:10:16What's this all about then? I ain't done nothing.
01:10:20Mr. Crim's, isn't it? The man who occupied
01:10:24the cell opposite. You ever speak to him?
01:10:28Once or twice.
01:10:32It's him, isn't it?
01:10:36He's back. Why do you say that?
01:10:40If I tell you
01:10:44anything, you'll come for me.
01:10:48What is it you know, Crim's?
01:10:52Whilst you're still alive,
01:10:56there's always time to redeem your soul.
01:11:00You weren't always the man they locked away in here.
01:11:08I had a wife once.
01:11:12Violet her name was.
01:11:16Violet.
01:11:20Lovely name.
01:11:24You can be with her again, Crim's.
01:11:32Noises
01:11:36came from her cell that night.
01:11:40Vicious, horrible noises.
01:11:44He whispered things on them.
01:11:48Words I never heard before.
01:11:52Words I never want to hear again.
01:11:56I know no more. I swear. I know no more. I swear.
01:12:00Thank you, Mr. Crim's.
01:12:04Smart arse. You know more than you're letting on.
01:12:08I can see it in your eyes.
01:12:12Unfortunately, I don't know enough.
01:12:16But yet.
01:12:20And how many revolutions were there?
01:12:24Um...
01:12:28Eight? Ten? Well, maybe twelve.
01:12:32Okay, so we need to attach a rev counter.
01:12:36And something for measuring the gauss field as well.
01:12:40As well as atmospheric pressure, temperature, humidity.
01:12:44No. We know the machine is powerful enough.
01:12:48We need to establish a maximum and a minimum on the machine.
01:12:52Well, we can tweak, restart,
01:12:56and try again with Mr. Abbotton's permission.
01:13:00Ah, Abbotton, yes. I expect he's trembling in his boots that we're going to take his business away.
01:13:04However, I suppose you're right.
01:13:08We should proceed with proper scientific caution.
01:13:12Oh, damn that. Let's have a go, anyway.
01:13:16Just kidding.
01:13:34No.
01:13:38No.
01:13:42No.
01:13:46No.
01:13:50No.
01:13:54No.
01:13:58No.
01:14:02I told you I'm not big.
01:14:32No.
01:14:36No.
01:14:40No.
01:14:44No.
01:14:48No.
01:14:52No.
01:14:56No.
01:15:00Step away from the door.
01:15:04Whatever you may see
01:15:08in any of these cells,
01:15:12you are not to enter them. Understand.
01:15:16Tell the others the same.
01:15:30Cup of tea, sir?
01:15:34Make it bloody strong.
01:15:39Cup of tea, sir?
01:15:43Make it bloody strong.
01:16:08Jones.
01:16:31Jones.
01:16:38Jones.
01:17:09I'm speaking directly to you, William Colquhoun.
01:17:17Guide my herd, William.
01:17:21Guide my herd, William.
01:17:38Show yourself, William.
01:17:43Show yourself.
01:17:57I see you.
01:18:01Come forward.
01:18:05Use my hand.
01:18:10Use my hand, William.
01:18:14Tell me.
01:18:17Tell me what it is you want.
01:18:22William.
01:18:26Tell me, William.
01:18:30Tell me what it is you want.
01:18:35William.
01:18:37Tell me, William.
01:18:40Tell me what it is you want.
01:18:44Jones.
01:19:00Get up.
01:19:03Jones.
01:19:06Jones, get up.
01:19:11Jones.
01:19:18Jones.
01:19:40Jones.
01:20:11Jones.
01:20:15Jones.
01:20:19Jones.
01:20:23Miss Atherton.
01:20:25Miss Atherton, can you hear me?
01:20:27What?
01:20:28There's a flask in my kitchen.
01:20:31Atherton.
01:20:32My dear chap.
01:20:35He's strong.
01:20:37What?
01:20:38He's strong.
01:20:54Marie.
01:20:58George.
01:20:59What the bloody hell are you doing here?
01:21:02The governor will go square if he sees you.
01:21:06I don't know why I'm here.
01:21:07He'll let you in.
01:21:10Marie.
01:21:13The devil sends his regards, George.
01:21:18Marie.
01:21:22Marie.
01:21:26Marie.
01:21:30Marie.
01:21:34Marie.
01:21:39Marie.
01:21:43Marie.
01:21:47Marie.
01:21:51Marie.
01:21:56Marie.
01:22:00Marie.
01:22:26Marie.
01:22:30Marie.
01:22:34Marie.
01:22:38Marie.
01:22:42Marie.
01:22:46Father, please.
01:22:50You need to rest.
01:22:54You cannot leave God's work to those heathens any longer.
01:23:00Jones, be in charge up here.
01:23:02Yes, sir.
01:23:16How are you feeling?
01:23:18Better.
01:23:19Thank you.
01:23:22Where's Frederick?
01:23:23He's gone to make you some tea to settle your nerves.
01:23:27I'm guessing he has a tea-making machine.
01:23:30He was working on one once, but the tea was horrid.
01:23:35Now he carries a flask.
01:23:37Still horrid, though.
01:23:41All this.
01:23:43The machines.
01:23:44The inventions.
01:23:47What are you looking for?
01:23:53When we found you in the execution room, there was something by your side.
01:24:00Protecting you.
01:24:03I couldn't see it, but I felt it.
01:24:09A strong, positive presence.
01:24:14That presence, I believe, is the reason you're still alive.
01:24:19And I also believe you know what it was.
01:24:25To see, you just need to look in the right places, Emma.
01:24:32You don't need machines.
01:24:44Sometimes you need the darkness to show you the light.
01:24:49Something my mother used to say, apparently.
01:24:54Wise lady.
01:24:59Emma, please, go and check on your uncle.
01:25:45What the devil?
01:25:50What are you doing, man?
01:25:55Uncle?
01:25:59What are you doing, man?
01:26:02Uncle?
01:26:19Father.
01:26:22Father.
01:26:24Father.
01:26:27Father, don't move.
01:26:58Your heathen ways have only made things worse.
01:27:03Do work with me, Father.
01:27:06Never.
01:27:28Uncle, are you all right?
01:27:31That thing is not human.
01:27:33It's jealous.
01:27:36Do you know her?
01:27:38She's the wife of one of my guards.
01:27:39How the hell did this machine get in here?
01:27:43Do not speak that foul tongue in my presence, William.
01:27:51Release her, William.
01:27:54Release her!
01:27:58Do not speak that foul tongue in my presence, William.
01:28:02Release her, William.
01:28:05Release her!
01:28:27Release her.
01:28:57No, no, no.
01:29:15By God, trust in the hell, Satan, and all evil spirits.
01:29:28No.
01:29:42I smell fear in you.
01:29:48Man of God.
01:29:58No.
01:30:17Gabbler, wait.
01:30:27Wait.
01:30:58Wait.
01:31:07William, you can't.
01:31:10You need me instead.
01:31:13You can't bring your beloved back without a body of your own.
01:31:18You cannot have her.
01:31:24No.
01:31:31Are you all right?
01:31:34Yes.
01:31:35I thought I'd lost you.
01:31:38I'm okay.
01:31:54Lucy, old chap.
01:31:59You won't do, you know, to isolate yourself at this time.
01:32:05Where is everyone?
01:32:08Huh?
01:32:11They're drinking my horrible tea.
01:32:14For so...
01:32:16For so many days.
01:32:19For so...
01:32:22For so many days.
01:32:24I should have destroyed the machine.
01:32:26I should have... I should have smashed it.
01:32:29I should have torn the notes out.
01:32:36Lucian, I...
01:32:39I had no idea that the invisible world...
01:32:44could be possessed of such evil.
01:32:47You all need to leave this place.
01:32:49We cannot leave this place.
01:32:51You told us that.
01:32:52People are dead because of what I told them to do.
01:32:56No, you cannot blame yourself, sir.
01:32:58It was my machine.
01:33:03All the blame lies at my door, Frederick.
01:33:10I have never faced it.
01:33:14A pure, unrelenting evil like...
01:33:19like this.
01:33:21This, William,
01:33:24is knelt at the altar of an ancient darkness.
01:33:30He made a deal whilst he was still alive.
01:33:35And he intends to honor it.
01:33:37William Colquitt is dead.
01:33:39They executed him.
01:33:40What good is any deal now?
01:33:42Alive or dead,
01:33:45it's no difference to these things.
01:33:51My dear fellow, what has he done to you?
01:33:54Emma, get him up. We've got to get him up.
01:33:56No!
01:33:58I shall remain here and draw him out.
01:34:02When I do, he will all leave.
01:34:05And leave you here to die?
01:34:06Please, Frederick.
01:34:08I don't have the strength to fight you on this.
01:34:11Either we leave together or we stay together.
01:34:13There has to be another way.
01:34:14There isn't.
01:34:16I'll be ready to leave.
01:34:18I won't be able to hold him for too long.
01:34:21You must, Frederick.
01:34:24Please.
01:34:25Wait a minute, wait a minute.
01:34:27Our machine gave the creature power.
01:34:30Now, what if it was possible to reverse the process?
01:34:34Drain the atmosphere
01:34:36instead of charging it.
01:34:38It would make it weaker.
01:34:40Yes.
01:34:41We could do this. We can do this.
01:34:44Now, Lucian, listen to me.
01:34:46There is another way.
01:34:48The three of us, the old and the new,
01:34:51working together.
01:34:53And I think that you still have enough power in you
01:34:56to finish the job.
01:35:06Let's destroy the bastard.
01:35:11Now we have to draw him in.
01:35:14But how?
01:35:16The usual approach is to draw the spirit out somehow.
01:35:20Lure it into a sense of strength and security.
01:35:24Then attach or bind it to an item.
01:35:28Something symbolic from their life.
01:35:31We could use the ring to draw him in.
01:35:33No, Emma.
01:35:35I have tried.
01:35:38The ring holds too much energy from William's life.
01:35:42It's a source of power for him.
01:35:45I need something deeply negative.
01:35:48Would you say the key that locked him away was negative enough?
01:35:52The key. That's it.
01:35:55And all we do
01:35:57is find a way of bringing him close.
01:36:01The atmosizer
01:36:03electrified the air.
01:36:06But we can't do this inadvertently feeding him.
01:36:10To weaken him, we reverse the process,
01:36:12but then we run into a problem.
01:36:15We need somewhere to send the charge,
01:36:17to store it, something big.
01:36:19So we're going to bypass the electric chair
01:36:22and connect the cable directly to the atmosizer
01:36:26and then run it back
01:36:28straight into the capacitor of the generator.
01:36:32Problem solved.
01:36:37Prepare your machine.
01:36:39I think we have a plan.
01:36:48We may have found a way to entrap Corcott.
01:36:51But, Governor, we need your help.
01:36:55What is it exactly that you need?
01:37:07Be with me, Mother.
01:37:10All clear.
01:37:19We're ready.
01:37:23William Corcott.
01:37:25A present from well above the land.
01:37:28You failed in life,
01:37:30and now you fail in death.
01:37:33You're weak, Corcott.
01:37:35Two weeks ago to me, Governor Bishop came to check in.
01:37:39The man who watched you die.
01:37:41Preying on the innocent.
01:37:44Nothing but a loathsome coward.
01:37:47You have failed.
01:37:49That's it. I'm not reading anymore.
01:37:51Just go back downstairs and finish this thing.
01:38:04Now, Frederick!
01:38:13I bind you, William Corcott.
01:38:20I bind you to this key in death.
01:38:25I think we have a plan.
01:38:27We may have found a way to entrap Corcott.
01:38:30This key in death.
01:38:33As it bound you in life.
01:38:40I can feel your weakness.
01:38:43Your fear.
01:38:46You fail, William.
01:38:56William!
01:39:00William!
01:39:05Your soul belongs to me!
01:39:31Dad!
01:39:39Dad!
01:39:43Dad, no!
01:39:47No!
01:39:50No!
01:39:58Father, the seed!
01:40:03Lucian!
01:40:13Lucian, did it work?
01:40:20Of course it worked.
01:40:25We did it.
01:40:29We bloody did it.
01:40:36Well done.
01:40:50Governor.
01:40:53May I ask you please to open the door?
01:40:57So that we can all go home.
01:41:19Dad.
01:41:49No, that won't do at all.
01:41:57What if we took photographs for the police?
01:42:00Photographs? For the police?
01:42:03Photograph the scene of a crime.
01:42:05It would certainly be more accurate than a sketch.
01:42:08However, that is preposterous.
01:42:11That would never catch on.
01:42:14No, no, I still think what we have to do first of all
01:42:17is write a true account of what happened at the prison.
01:42:23We need to reach out to Lucian.
01:42:27I am not in.
01:42:34Um, Uncle?
01:42:37Oh.
01:42:39Mr. Abbotton.
01:42:41Welcome.
01:42:43But say his name and he appears.
01:42:45I hope you don't mind my coming over uninvited.
01:42:49I thought it only right that I paid you half
01:42:53of my fee from Bishop's Gate.
01:43:00Why?
01:43:02I don't know.
01:43:05Why?
01:43:07Dear fellow, you...
01:43:09You don't need to do this. This is far too generous.
01:43:13I do not know what to say, sir, other than thank you.
01:43:17There are rumours of what happened
01:43:20spreading around town like wildfire.
01:43:23They're calling you to the Great Ghost Hunters of London.
01:43:28The local paper said it was a prison riot.
01:43:31The local paper said it was a prison riot.
01:43:34They even interviewed the governor.
01:43:36Of course. No right-thinking man in the prison system
01:43:40would have wanted the truth printed in the papers.
01:43:43Least of all the man about to retire from a distinguished career.
01:43:49Cover-ups are unfortunately common in this profession.
01:43:54So, what next for the Great Ghost Hunters of London?
01:43:59Well, I think for the time being,
01:44:01we're going to resume our career as post-mortem photographers.
01:44:06We have acquired a new affection for the dead who stay dead.
01:44:11Ha!
01:44:13Well, I wouldn't get too comfortable.
01:44:17My associate is very interested in speaking with you.
01:44:22Again.
01:44:25You both cause quite a stir in the right circles.
01:44:32Oh, I almost forgot.
01:44:35This is for you, Emma.
01:44:38I thought it might be of some use to you.

01:44:45by Luthien Aberton.
01:44:48Good Lord, I must dash about to take my train.
01:44:52I just wanted to deliver the money personally and...
01:44:57and say thank you.
01:45:00Thank you, Aberton.
01:45:03Both of you.
01:45:06Thank you.
01:45:09Ah, Mr Aberton, before you go,
01:45:12what happened to the key?
01:45:18It's exactly where it needs to be.
01:45:22Locked away...
01:45:26in the darkness...
01:45:32where no man should ever go looking.
01:45:52Soon, my love.
