00:00:46¶¶
00:01:06¶¶
00:01:08¶¶
00:01:17¶¶
00:01:23And then, through the branches of the old trees, I see the house again.
00:01:29It sits there waiting for me, silent, malignant, a place of unspeakable horror.
00:01:40There is no one there now.
00:01:43On a mailbox beside the driveway, I can make out the name of the people who lived there once.
00:01:50Tierney.
00:01:52But the Tierneys must have all gone away a long time ago.
00:01:56And the house stands like a moldering tombstone to a world that died.
00:02:06There is an old-fashioned knocker on the door.
00:02:14An unseen hand always opens the door for me.
00:02:24I always go up the shadowy stairway as if I know exactly where to find the answer to what has
00:02:31drawn me here.
00:02:50It's behind a little unmarked door, and some unearthly power swings it open to receive me.
00:02:59I look up that narrow, dusty stairway, and for a moment that is so brief, so filled with terror that
00:03:08my mind cannot hold on to it, I know why I had to come to this place.
00:03:26Did I go up the stairs this time, Doctor?
00:03:29No, it was the same as before.
00:03:30You almost bring yourself to see the truth, and then you...
00:03:33But what truth?
00:03:35All I know is that death, in its most hideous form, waits for me at the top of those stairs.
00:03:40That's not all you know, Mrs. Justin.
00:03:43You hold the answer deep within your own mind.
00:03:46Consciously, you've forgotten it.
00:03:48That's the way the human mind works.
00:03:50Whenever something is too unpleasant, too shameful for us to entertain, we reject it.
00:03:55We erase it from our memory.
00:03:57But the imprint is always there.
00:04:00Nothing is ever really forgotten.
00:04:02But don't all of us do things we're ashamed of?
00:04:05We wouldn't be human if we hadn't.
00:04:08I'm quite human, Doctor.
00:04:10But there's nothing in my past that I couldn't tell my husband, or that I haven't told you.
00:04:16I have never seen that house, except in my dream.
00:04:21I can't connect it with any place or anyone I've ever known.
00:04:26You're an orphan?
00:04:28Yes.
00:04:29You've lived most of your life here in Switzerland?
00:04:32Yes.
00:04:33I was sent here as a child for my health.
00:04:36Incipient tuberculosis, from which you made a complete recovery.
00:04:40I'm strong as an ox now.
00:04:44Those two years in the sanitarium, it's not a very happy time, was it?
00:04:51I don't have a very clear recollection of them now.
00:04:55These nightmares resumed about six weeks ago.
00:04:58Yes.
00:04:59You've been married about the same length of time.
00:05:02You're in the wrong track there, Doctor.
00:05:04I told Philip everything.
00:05:06It made very dull telling, I assure you.
00:05:09And now he's taking you back to America?
00:05:12Yes.
00:05:13You're happy about this, of course.
00:05:15I couldn't be happier.
00:05:16I love Switzerland, but after all, America's my real home.
00:05:21Well, perhaps it's for the best.
00:05:26These dreams may have some associations for you here in Switzerland.
00:05:30If so, I think it's quite possible you may leave these behind too.
00:05:34At least we hope so.
00:05:36Well, that's certainly good news, Doctor.
00:05:40Dr. Farrell.
00:05:42Yes?
00:05:43You don't believe there's really any connection between my dreams and my marriage, do you?
00:05:48No, no. I merely noted the coincidence.
00:05:51But several times you suggested Philip come to see you. Why?
00:05:54I do that in most cases, Mrs. Justin.
00:05:57Sometimes the husband can be very helpful.
00:06:00Well, I know he always intended to come.
00:06:03But he had such a short time in Switzerland.
00:06:06And he loves to go up in the mountains alone.
00:06:10Mrs. Justin, your husband came to see me two weeks ago.
00:06:17Oh, yes, I believe...
00:06:20It slipped to my mind.
00:06:24Was it helpful, Doctor?
00:06:26I believe you've known your husband a very short time.
00:06:29Yes.
00:06:30We had what you call in America a whirlwind romance.
00:06:34Then whatever's causing these dreams occurred a long time before you met Philip Justin.
00:06:43Goodbye, Doctor.
00:06:45Goodbye, Mrs. Justin.
00:06:47And thank you for helping me.
00:07:04Goodbye, Mrs. Justin.
00:07:05Darling, I'm back.
00:07:06I've got everything.
00:07:07Tickets, passports, money, smallpox certificates.
00:07:13What about customs decorations?
00:07:15Don't give them to you on the plane.
00:07:16You'll have hours to fill them out.
00:07:18Don't be too excited.
00:07:19What did I do with the tickets?
00:07:21You got them right in your hand.
00:07:24I can see you're going to be very useful to have around.
00:07:26Oh, you have no idea.
00:07:32I'm glad we'll be flying at night.
00:07:34We can make all the way across the Atlantic.
00:07:37You don't have to wait that long.
00:07:40Used to be a gag I pulled at college.
00:07:42We would take a girl down to the airport, bus depot, station, and watch the train or plane pull out.
00:07:49Then we'd kiss the girl goodbye.
00:07:54Unless she wouldn't be going anywhere.
00:07:57But nobody would know that.
00:08:00All right, who was she?
00:08:02Oh, that was long ago.
00:08:04Come on, I told Dr. Farrell I confessed all to you.
00:08:07Now it's your turn.
00:08:09How was the session with Farrell?
00:08:11No change.
00:08:13Now he tells me the dreams are caused by something scandalous I did and then forgot.
00:08:21Well, aren't you worried, darling?
00:08:23I may have a perfectly dreadful past neither one of us knows about.
00:08:26I don't believe you ever went to a station to watch the train pull out.
00:08:31They're so smug.
00:08:32These Swiss boys know a few tricks, too.
00:08:35Uh-huh.
00:08:36The way all they ever did to you was Yoru.
00:08:39First time I kissed you, your nose got in the way.
00:08:47Oh, you're learning.
00:08:52Keep on teaching, Professor.
00:09:10Philip.
00:09:14What is it, do you have a dream?
00:09:16No, I wasn't sleeping.
00:09:17I just remembered something awful.
00:09:19I forgot to have the initials and my luggage changed.
00:09:23Oh, it'll get through customs anyway.
00:09:25But they're all marked SW.
00:09:28Your family might think we're not married.
00:09:32I don't have any family, Sheila.
00:09:36You never told me that, Philip.
00:09:40So much I don't know about you.
00:09:43Does it matter?
00:09:44Not really.
00:09:46But I want to know everything you did before you met me.
00:09:49What you do, where you come from.
00:09:52How you got along without me all these years?
00:09:57All these years I've been looking for you.
00:10:01I'll try to get some sleep.
00:10:03All right.
00:10:08Philip.
00:10:09Yes?
00:10:10Why didn't you tell me you went to see Dr. Farrell?
00:10:15I did tell you.
00:10:16Don't you remember?
00:10:18No.
00:10:23I guess I didn't hear you.
00:10:50I guess I didn't hear you.
00:10:51No.
00:10:54No, it's the right road.
00:10:58It's creepy looking.
00:10:59I wish we'd stayed in New York.
00:11:02You need a quiet place where you can rest for a couple of weeks.
00:11:06You make me sound like an invalid.
00:11:08Well, you did have that dream again last night.
00:11:12Yes.
00:11:15Yes.
00:11:43Go back, Philip.
00:11:45Take me away.
00:11:46Yes.
00:11:47Sheila, what is it? What's wrong?
00:11:49It's the house.
00:11:51The one in my dreams.
00:11:53Nonsense. It can't be.
00:11:54You said you've never been in Florida before.
00:11:56How could you have seen it?
00:11:57I never saw it before, but that's the house.
00:12:01Oh, Philip, I'm frightened.
00:12:03It's an old empty house.
00:12:06Why are you afraid of a house?
00:12:09I don't know.
00:12:12Whatever's inside,
00:12:14it's horrible.
00:12:17I don't know what it is.
00:12:19There's nothing to be afraid of.
00:12:21An empty house can't hurt you.
00:12:23But it's the same house.
00:12:25You know that's impossible.
00:12:29Look, you dreamed of an old house.
00:12:31The first one you see reminds you of it.
00:12:33You simply made the transference in your mind.
00:12:36You've got to be sensible.
00:12:38You can't dream about a place you've never seen.
00:12:41It's exactly the same.
00:12:43Those trees,
00:12:45those trees,
00:12:46the door and the windows.
00:12:50That must be the attic.
00:12:52Every old house has an attic.
00:12:55Do we have to go in there?
00:12:57Yes.
00:12:59It'll be good for you.
00:13:02Once you realize there's nothing in there that can hurt you,
00:13:05the dream will go away.
00:13:08Aside, darling.
00:13:09I'll be with you every minute.
00:14:03What do you want here?
00:14:05I'm Jonah, the caretaker.
00:14:07And I'm Justin, the new residence.
00:14:10Oh, you've come to the wrong place.
00:14:12This house ain't never rented.
00:14:14It is now.
00:14:16Well, they would have told me about it.
00:14:18I've just told you we've rented the house.
00:14:20We're going to live here.
00:14:22Now you know.
00:14:24Lie down.
00:14:30Come on now.
00:14:40Philip.
00:14:41Don't be frightened, darling.
00:14:43I'll go out and get the bags.
00:14:45You wait right here?
00:15:01My husband took the house on short notice.
00:15:04I'm sure you'll be notified by mail in a day or two.
00:15:07There ain't been no mail here for the last 17 years.
00:15:13It's been empty that long?
00:15:15Mm-hmm.
00:15:16Must have been a lovely home once.
00:15:19What happened to the people who lived here?
00:15:22They went away.
00:15:23One by one they went away.
00:15:26Except me.
00:15:29Isn't it lonely for you?
00:15:32Lonely?
00:15:32No.
00:15:34It ain't lonely.
00:15:35I got my dog.
00:15:37You see, I'm waiting for them to come back.
00:15:40That's why I keep it like it was.
00:15:42For them.
00:15:44For whom?
00:15:47Well, the folks it belongs to.
00:15:49It's theirs.
00:15:50That's why I try to keep it looking nice.
00:15:56What was...
00:15:56What was...
00:15:59What's their name?
00:16:02We carry the bags upstairs and we decide which bedroom we're going to use.
00:16:17Philip, this is the house.
00:16:19I know every step before I take it.
00:16:23I go up there.
00:16:25Along the railing to the left there's a bedroom.
00:16:30The hideous wallpaper.
00:16:32Huge, awful looking flowers on it.
00:16:38You never mentioned going into a bedroom in your dream.
00:16:43No, I didn't.
00:16:46Maybe I see it as I go past.
00:16:54The door is closed.
00:16:58The door is closed.
00:17:19Sheila.
00:17:27I told you, Philip.
00:17:29I told you what it was like.
00:17:32Now, do you believe me?
00:17:34This is the house I dreamed about.
00:17:36But why?
00:17:37Why do you dream about it?
00:17:38What does it mean to you?
00:17:41It means I'm going to die here.
00:17:45Philip, take me away.
00:17:46I can't stay here.
00:17:47I can't.
00:17:48I'll go out of my mind.
00:17:50All right, darling.
00:17:53We'll go away.
00:18:26We'll go out and get next to you.
00:18:27And we'll walk you by now.
00:18:27We'll go out.
00:18:27Let's go.
00:18:36We'll be.
00:18:37We'll be.
00:18:38We'll be.
00:18:38We'll be.
00:18:39We'll be.
00:18:41We'll be.
00:18:41We'll be.
00:18:43We'll be.
00:18:44We'll be.
00:18:58We've got a spare can of gasoline.
00:19:01Isn't that?
00:19:03The tank's half full.
00:19:14We've got a spare can of gasoline.
00:19:28What's wrong?
00:19:31It's been wrecked.
00:19:32The wires have been pulled out.
00:19:34The distributor cap is missing.
00:19:36Jonah.
00:19:38Why?
00:19:39He tried to keep us from staying here.
00:19:41Why did he do it?
00:19:42I don't know.
00:19:43For some reason, he changed his mind.
00:19:45Can't you repair it?
00:19:47I could probably fix the wires,
00:19:49but without the distributor cap, we're stuck here.
00:20:10Jonah.
00:20:11The name is on the mailbox.
00:20:15What?
00:20:16You asked me who used to live here.
00:20:19You can still see the name on the mailbox.
00:20:23Tierney.
00:20:26Why did they all leave?
00:20:28Why?
00:20:30Nobody knows why they ever did anything.
00:20:33It was all the same.
00:20:35The whole family.
00:20:36Folks around here used to call them the...
00:20:39the mad Tierneys.
00:20:40Didn't you know that?
00:20:42No.
00:20:44Then how come you know the name?
00:20:46You didn't see the name on the mailbox.
00:20:48I watched you come.
00:20:50I don't know how I knew.
00:20:52Maybe I've been here before.
00:20:55A long time ago.
00:20:57No.
00:20:59I would have remembered you.
00:21:01I've always been here.
00:21:03If you'd been here before, I would have remembered.
00:21:07It's all vaguely familiar.
00:21:10Like...
00:21:11Like something that happened when you were a small child.
00:21:15What do you remember?
00:21:18I'm not sure.
00:21:22I can see myself...
00:21:24as a little girl playing in the grass.
00:21:27There was a boy.
00:21:30He was older than I was.
00:21:32I think I was in love with him.
00:21:38I think he carved our initials...
00:21:41on the trunk of a tree.
00:21:43A big old palm tree.
00:21:48It's all so vague.
00:21:51I don't know where it came from.
00:21:54I know every tree on this plantation.
00:21:58I would have seen them initials.
00:22:04Maybe it was someplace just like this.
00:22:11I thought I heard your voice.
00:22:13Jonah came back.
00:22:15Oh?
00:22:15Well, he's gone again.
00:22:17I tried to keep him talking till you came down.
00:22:21Did you ask him why you disabled the car?
00:22:23I was afraid to.
00:22:25He acts so queer.
00:22:27He's been living here alone too long.
00:22:30I'm sorry there's no coffee.
00:22:32None of the stoves in here work.
00:22:34Oh, this is fine.
00:22:40Philip.
00:22:41Yes?
00:22:42Did you bring that gun with you?
00:22:45Yes, in my suitcase. Why?
00:22:47I don't know.
00:22:49That dog frightens me.
00:22:52So does Jonah.
00:22:57I just feel better knowing you have it.
00:23:18I got it.
00:23:19I stopped working for you.
00:23:31I want to see you.
00:23:31There ain't no doubt about that.
00:23:32I'm looking for you.
00:23:32I'm looking for a little while.
00:23:32God.
00:23:35I'm looking for him.
00:23:37I'm looking for you.
00:23:38I'm looking for you.
00:23:40My father.
00:23:44I'm looking for you.
00:23:54Philip, where are you?
00:24:28Philip, where are you?
00:24:37Philip!
00:24:58What's wrong? Where were you?
00:25:00Looking for you.
00:25:01I woke up and you were gone.
00:25:04I couldn't sleep. I took a walk.
00:25:06I tried to find you.
00:25:08And then that dog came after me. He's out there.
00:25:11Stay here.
00:25:13Jonah!
00:25:14I'm sorry.
00:25:20Get the Santa Malata here and tie him up.
00:25:23I had him locked up in the cello. Somebody must have let him out.
00:25:26If anybody had let him out, it was you.
00:25:28Now take him back and tie him up. If he gets loose again, I'll shoot him.
00:25:30Yes, sir. Come on, Jenkins.
00:25:33Come with Jonah.
00:25:41Everything's all right now. Don't worry.
00:25:46What ever made you go prowling around in the dark?
00:25:49There was someone looking in that window.
00:25:52A hideous, inhuman face.
00:25:54You weren't here. I was so frightened.
00:25:57It had to be Jonah.
00:25:59There's no one else around here for miles.
00:26:03For some reason, he's trying to scare us away from here.
00:26:07Why?
00:26:09He disabled our car to keep us here.
00:26:12I don't know.
00:26:14I'm going to find out right now.
00:26:16Philip.
00:26:17Don't worry.
00:26:19Just lock the door.
00:26:21You'll be safe here.
00:26:23I'll be back in five minutes.
00:26:26All right.
00:26:29Take your gun.
00:26:30I can handle it.
00:26:32I can handle it.
00:27:03I can't do it.
00:27:03There's a distriplet, in Philo.
00:27:54I don't know.
00:28:25Let's go.
00:28:30Let's go.
00:29:15We have coffee this morning.
00:29:18Here we go.
00:29:20Drink this, huh?
00:29:25Slept badly?
00:29:29Dream again.
00:29:31I wasn't dreaming.
00:29:33I found the door to the attic.
00:29:35I told you.
00:29:36All these old houses have attics.
00:29:38I recognized it the instant I saw it.
00:29:41It was just like in my dream.
00:29:43Was it?
00:29:47I don't remember.
00:29:48But you must remember.
00:29:50Don't you see? Once you understand what it all means,
00:29:53you'll never have the dreams again.
00:29:55Is that why you brought me to this house, Philip?
00:29:58Darling, I brought you here for rest and to get over the dreams.
00:30:02But why to this house?
00:30:04How did you know where it was?
00:30:06I didn't even know.
00:30:08How did you find it?
00:30:10It's only the same house in your imagination.
00:30:14You're lying!
00:30:18Why are you doing this to me?
00:30:22Why?
00:30:25Finish your breakfast.
00:30:26I'll be downstairs.
00:30:48Distributor's guards.
00:31:20I think that the door came in.
00:31:21I knew that.
00:31:21I knew it was $1,000.
00:31:23There were lard.
00:31:24I knew I could do it.
00:31:24I knew it.
00:31:24I knew it.
00:31:25It was a while.
00:31:26Oh, my God.
00:32:13S.W. Sheila Wayne.
00:32:52Good morning.
00:32:55My name is Snell.
00:32:56I own this house, and I'd appreciate an explanation of what you're doing here.
00:33:00My husband rented it.
00:33:02Then in that case, I'd like to speak with your husband, if I may.
00:33:04He should be back any moment. He's gone for a walk.
00:33:07Is something wrong, Mr. Snell?
00:33:10You said your husband rented the house, Mrs., uh...
00:33:13Mrs. Justin. Yes, that's right. He rented it.
00:33:17From whom?
00:33:19I'm not sure. From a realtor, I suppose.
00:33:23This house is not in the hands of a realtor, and no one has approached me to rent it.
00:33:27And I wouldn't be interested in any case.
00:33:29I believe my caretaker informed you of that last night.
00:33:32Well, yes, he did. I'm sure my husband can explain satisfactorily when he comes back.
00:33:38Mrs. Justin, I don't want to appear to be unpleasant, but I'm not interested in explanations.
00:33:44You and your husband will have to leave this house immediately.
00:33:47Yes. I'm terribly sorry.
00:33:50You see, Mrs. Justin, the house has been closed up for a good many years.
00:33:54It's not even fit to live in. It's not safe.
00:33:57As a matter of fact, the electricity's been turned off.
00:34:00So if you fell through the floor or stumbled on the stairs, I'd be liable.
00:34:03I'm sure you understand.
00:34:06Of course. As a matter of fact, we started to leave last night, but...
00:34:10but the car... our car wouldn't start.
00:34:14Well, I'm not very much of a mechanic, but what seems to be the trouble?
00:34:16My husband said the distributor had been stolen.
00:34:21Stolen? By whom?
00:34:23There's no one around here for miles except Jonah, my caretaker.
00:34:27And I can assure you he wouldn't do anything to delay your departure.
00:34:31On the contrary. He did his best to frighten us away.
00:34:35Oh?
00:34:37Well, all I can suggest is that you get in the car and drive with me to the nearest garage
00:34:42and have a mechanic sent back.
00:34:45I can't go until my husband comes.
00:34:48Mrs. Justin, the idea is for both of you to leave.
00:34:52Suppose we refuse to leave.
00:34:55What are you gonna do about it?
00:34:57Philip, good Lord, I had no idea. Your wife said that it ain't...
00:35:01I asked you how you intend to make us leave.
00:35:03Why on earth would you want to stand at an old place like...
00:35:06You could run us off, huh?
00:35:13With an axe.
00:35:21I simply said that the house was dangerous.
00:35:24Naturally, if you want to stay here under these conditions,
00:35:27you're perfectly welcome.
00:35:32Well, I'm not being a very good host.
00:35:37It's been many years, Philip.
00:35:39We've lost touch with you.
00:35:42Where have you been?
00:35:43In Europe.
00:35:45Oh.
00:35:47Switzerland.
00:35:49Philip and I were married recently.
00:35:51In Lausanne.
00:35:52I hope I'm not interrupting our honeymoon if I stay a few days.
00:35:56Now that I'm here, I thought I'd look the old place over...
00:35:59and see if there's anything that could be done with it.
00:36:01You don't mind, do you, Philip?
00:36:04It's yours.
00:36:06Isn't it?
00:36:15I'm afraid most of that went over my head.
00:36:18Philip never mentioned that he knew you.
00:36:21More that you owned the house.
00:36:22What did he say?
00:36:25Nothing, really.
00:36:27He must have given you some explanation for bringing you back here.
00:36:31Back here?
00:36:33Then I have been here before.
00:36:36I...
00:36:37I don't know.
00:36:39But you said back here.
00:36:41That's what you meant.
00:36:43You know I've been here before, don't you?
00:36:46Don't you?
00:36:47This is a place you could never forget.
00:36:49You do remember being here, don't you, Mrs. Tierney?
00:36:51I'm not sure.
00:36:55Why did you call me Mrs. Tierney?
00:36:58Did I?
00:37:00I meant Mrs. Justin, of course.
00:37:05SW and PT.
00:37:09Philip Tierney.
00:37:10That's his name, isn't it?
00:37:13Look at me, Mr. Snell.
00:37:14I want to know.
00:37:15It's true, isn't it?
00:37:17Yes.
00:37:18Philip is the last of the Tierneys.
00:37:21The last of the Mad Tierneys.
00:37:23That's what they're called, isn't it?
00:37:27And those initials on that old tree.
00:37:31SW.
00:37:32Sheila Wayne.
00:37:33Those are my initials, aren't they?
00:37:36He carved them when I was just a little girl.
00:37:39Don't you remember any of it?
00:37:43It's all so vague.
00:37:45It all comes back to me in little bits and pieces.
00:37:48I try to fit them together and they fade away.
00:37:53I was ill in the sanitarium in Switzerland for a long time.
00:38:00My memory always seems to start in the sanitarium.
00:38:05Before that, it's like a thick mist.
00:38:10What does it all mean?
00:38:13These are questions for your husband to answer Mrs. Tierney, not me.
00:38:17I wish I could help you, but I can't.
00:38:19It would have been better if you had never left Switzerland.
00:38:23You should never have come to this house.
00:38:27There's something evil here.
00:38:30It's bad for Philip.
00:38:34He wasn't like this in Switzerland.
00:38:38What is there about this house that makes him...
00:38:43...like his?
00:38:44Possibly only Philip knows.
00:38:47I urge you for your own safety to leave this house at once.
00:38:52Take my car if you like, but get away from here.
00:38:54Now.
00:39:01Let's go, Philip.
00:39:03You'll be moving.
00:39:03I think I've got to.
00:39:03Come on.
00:39:06Come on.
00:39:08Come on.
00:39:09Come on.
00:39:20Come on.
00:39:24Come on.
00:39:30Come on.
00:39:37Tell me the truth, Philip.
00:39:39Why did you bring me to this house?
00:39:42For your own good.
00:39:48You knew I'd been here before.
00:39:51Yes.
00:39:53I knew.
00:39:55We lived here as children.
00:39:57I remembered that last night after we'd been here a little while.
00:40:01It was all so hazy I couldn't quite make out the face.
00:40:07The boy who carved our initials on the tree.
00:40:11I was in love with you then.
00:40:14That must be why I fell in love with you so quickly in Switzerland.
00:40:20I told Dr. Farrell we had a whirlwind romance.
00:40:24It wasn't really.
00:40:28I've been in love with you for years and years.
00:40:33I love you, Sheila.
00:40:40Do you?
00:40:41I love you very, very much.
00:40:46Why did you bring me to this place?
00:40:49To this horrible, evil house?
00:40:51So you would get over the nightmares.
00:40:53They were destroying you, Sheila.
00:40:54In no time they'd have you back in the sanitarium.
00:40:57Sanitarium?
00:40:59I was sent there because of my lungs.
00:41:03Wasn't I, Philip?
00:41:04No, darling.
00:41:06You were trying to tell me that I was sent away to Switzerland because I was insane.
00:41:13Sheila, you'd had a nervous breakdown.
00:41:16A nervous breakdown?
00:41:17I was seven years old.
00:41:18A child of seven doesn't have a nervous breakdown.
00:41:21I was insane, wasn't I?
00:41:24Sheila, there's nothing wrong with you now except those nightmares.
00:41:26I brought you here to regain your health.
00:41:28There's only one way to cure you.
00:41:30No, Philip.
00:41:32You must go up in that attic.
00:41:33I can't.
00:41:34I can't.
00:41:36There's something waiting for me up there.
00:41:38If I climb those stairs, I'll die.
00:41:40I know that.
00:41:41Darling, it's all in your imagination.
00:41:43I'll be with you every step of the way.
00:41:45Please, you must do this.
00:41:47Don't ask me to do that, Philip.
00:41:49I can't.
00:41:50I won't.
00:42:17I'll be with you every step.
00:42:35Matthew Tierney.
00:42:43Died November 4th, 1938.
00:42:521939, born to Matthew and Bliss Tierney, son, Lawrence, died November 4th, 1939, born
00:43:04a daughter, Lydia, died January 18th, 1920, born a son, Samuel, died November 4th,
00:43:221939, born to Samuel and Anne Tierney, son, Philip, Philip, the last of the mad Tierney's.
00:43:39Oh, Jonah, I was just looking at the family Bible.
00:43:46It belonged to my husband's grandfather, didn't it?
00:43:51Did you know him?
00:43:52I knowed him.
00:43:53I knowed him all.
00:43:58Matthew Tierney had two sons and a daughter.
00:44:02They's all dead now.
00:44:05I can see that.
00:44:07Jonah, it says that Matthew and his sons, Lawrence and Samuel, all died on the same day.
00:44:15November 4th, 1939, at midnight.
00:44:21What happened, Jonah?
00:44:23Was there an accident, all of them dying at once?
00:44:27The strain died out, all except him.
00:44:32Philip, but what caused it?
00:44:36He, he's seen death coming for him.
00:44:41Well, he was 84 and, and it was his time.
00:44:45Matthew was, Matthew died of old age, but, but, Lawrence and, and Philip's father, they were both young men.
00:44:55He's seen what he had to do.
00:44:57The curse of the Tierney's was on him, and he could see it.
00:45:01He brought him into this world and, and he took him out again before he died.
00:45:08You mean, the old man, his two sons?
00:45:15He, he, he watched for it all the time they was growing up.
00:45:19He looked for it to show up, and, and it did, like in all the Tierneys.
00:45:24They, they was tainted.
00:45:26He knowed he had to wipe it out before, before he was taken.
00:45:31There was only one way.
00:45:35Blood.
00:45:36There was blood all over everything.
00:45:40The, the, the place run with the blood of the mad Tierneys.
00:45:46I, I took the axe out myself and buried it.
00:45:52Horrible.
00:45:54He done what he had to do.
00:45:57Then he laid down and died his self.
00:45:59But he missed one.
00:46:03Philip.
00:46:04Yeah.
00:46:05He was away, up north.
00:46:09That's what saved him.
00:46:10And he's the last.
00:46:13He's come back because he knows he's got it too.
00:46:17He's mocked, like all the others.
00:46:23I don't believe it.
00:46:26I don't believe it.
00:46:31I don't believe it.
00:46:32Go away, miss.
00:46:33Go away before it's too late.
00:46:35Ain't nothing you can do for him.
00:46:38I seen it in him just the same as in all the others.
00:46:43Yeah.
00:46:43No.
00:46:55Watch out! Watch out!
00:47:04Are you all right, Doc?
00:47:21I've, uh, I've taken care of it.
00:47:23I won't put up with carelessness.
00:47:25You know that.
00:47:26I know, I know.
00:47:27Mrs. Tierney might have been killed.
00:47:29Now look, you've been around here for a long time.
00:47:31And if you want to keep your home, you see that nothing goes wrong from now on.
00:47:35Do you understand?
00:47:45Philip.
00:47:46Philip.
00:47:47Get away from me.
00:47:48You're gonna listen to me for once.
00:47:50I don't know what you're up to or why you ever came back here, but I can tell you this.
00:47:53You're only gonna make matters worse for yourself.
00:47:56And maybe that's the way you like it.
00:47:58And tell me, why do you insist on pulling your wife down with you?
00:48:02How much more do you think she can stand?
00:48:03You've nearly driven her out of her mind now.
00:48:05Or is that what you're trying to do, Philip?
00:48:07What do you think I'm trying to do?
00:48:09Take her away from here at once if you've got any sense left.
00:48:12Why are you so concerned about Sheila?
00:48:14Because if she stays in this house another night, she'll be a raving maniac.
00:48:18I'll drive her to town myself.
00:48:20Sheila stays here with me.
00:48:22Why?
00:48:22Well, because she has nightmares, Mark. Didn't she tell you that?
00:48:25She was going to a psychiatrist in Switzerland to find out what caused them.
00:48:28The doctor couldn't help her, but I can. I know exactly what to do.
00:48:33And when she's better, everything's gonna be all right again.
00:48:36For her, for me, and for all the Tierneys, dead or alive.
00:48:43You'd hate that, wouldn't you, Mark?
00:48:46You've always hated the Tierneys.
00:48:49You're insane.
00:48:51You're really out of your mind.
00:49:06You're really out of your mind.
00:49:08Who is it?
00:49:09Who is it?
00:49:10Who is it?
00:49:10I brought you some dinner.
00:49:28You must eat something.
00:49:29I can't.
00:49:30Where is my...
00:49:32Where is he?
00:49:33He went away about an hour ago, as soon as it was dark.
00:49:36You should eat something.
00:49:44He tried to kill me.
00:49:48I can't.
00:49:49It could have been an accident.
00:49:50I told you how old and rotten the house was.
00:49:53The chandelier probably just broke away.
00:49:56No, he was up there.
00:49:58If Jonah hadn't shouted at...
00:50:01Why?
00:50:02He said he loved me.
00:50:04I'm sure he does.
00:50:06But at other times, he's not responsible for what he does.
00:50:09You see, in a way, you're a threat to him.
00:50:14Phillip is the last of the Tierneys, unless you have a child.
00:50:18And in his own tortured mind, he knows that this must never happen.
00:50:23Let me explain.
00:50:26With each generation, the wild strain and the tyrannies becomes not less, but more pronounced.
00:50:32Do you understand?
00:50:34Why did he marry me?
00:50:36Why doesn't he leave me?
00:50:38He loves you.
00:50:40You're his one hold on sanity, and at the same time, the one thing that's driving him to do what
00:50:46his grandfather did.
00:50:49I know.
00:50:52Jonah told me.
00:50:55I didn't want to believe it.
00:50:57I'm afraid it's true.
00:50:58You see, Sheila...
00:51:01Phillip is my cousin.
00:51:04Yes.
00:51:06My mother was Lydia Tierney.
00:51:07She died in childbirth in 1925.
00:51:10I grew up here with Phillip until he went up north to school.
00:51:13When the old man...
00:51:16Why didn't he...
00:51:17You mean, why didn't grandfather kill me too?
00:51:21Oh, I don't know.
00:51:22I suppose it's because I really wasn't like a tyranny.
00:51:26I was a snill.
00:51:28When I was growing up...
00:51:31I didn't understand it at the time.
00:51:33Grandfather Tierney was very hard on me.
00:51:35Almost cruel.
00:51:37He must have decided...
00:51:39I had escaped the curse of his line.
00:51:43He knew he was mad.
00:51:44I think he did.
00:51:45It came in spells.
00:51:47He used to lock himself away in his room for days at a time.
00:51:53What will become of Phillip?
00:51:55I don't know.
00:51:58I'm more concerned with what will become of you.
00:52:02You must leave here as soon as it's daylight.
00:52:05I take you away tonight.
00:52:06But my car has been disabled too.
00:52:09Couldn't we walk?
00:52:11No.
00:52:12It's 15 miles and along those winding roads we probably lose our way or wind up in the marshes.
00:52:18But that's better than staying here.
00:52:19No.
00:52:21He's outside somewhere watching the house.
00:52:24You'll be safer here.
00:52:26Besides, Jono and I are going to take turns standing watch outside your door.
00:52:31You may not get much sleep.
00:52:34But I can promise you nothing will happen to you.
00:52:41Are you sure you don't want something to eat?
00:52:46Good night.
00:52:49Good night.
00:53:24Hello?
00:53:29Hello.
00:53:53Who is it?
00:53:54Sheila, it's Mark.
00:53:57Are you all right?
00:53:58Yes.
00:54:18Don't come any farther.
00:54:20There's an expert over there.
00:54:21I heard him scream.
00:54:23Yes, he was.
00:54:25He fell over the railing up there.
00:54:28He must have been dead before.
00:54:29Before you hit the bottom.
00:54:31Poor Jono.
00:54:33You said the house was dangerous.
00:54:38What happened?
00:54:39The railing gave way?
00:54:41No.
00:54:42It didn't.
00:54:43What was he doing prowling around in the dark?
00:54:46That's his job.
00:54:48He's the caretaker.
00:54:54Here.
00:54:56Put this on.
00:54:58You think we ought to move him?
00:55:00It's your house.
00:55:02I hate to leave him lying there.
00:55:05I suppose we'll have to call the police.
00:55:07Why?
00:55:08It was an accident.
00:55:10Wasn't it?
00:55:11That's not for us to say.
00:55:14How are you going to get in touch with him?
00:55:15I understand your car broke down.
00:55:17I thought you might fix it.
00:55:19I can try.
00:55:21Who's going to drive?
00:55:23She can't.
00:55:24I guess.
00:55:25I was merely suggesting that she might like to drive into town with me.
00:55:30This has been an awful shock for her.
00:55:35I'll go.
00:56:00What?
00:56:01What?
00:56:05What?
00:56:05I'm going to pass with me.
00:56:09Have you ever seen the escape?
00:56:09Have you ever seen that?
00:56:09All this?
00:56:12I have
00:56:13ever seen the escape.
00:56:13I've never seen the escape.
00:56:13I was never seen the escape.
00:56:13I did that.
00:56:13All this?
00:56:22I did it.
00:56:22I was trying to get him up.
00:56:23Then you hid it.
00:56:26How long before the police will get here?
00:56:29It won't be tonight.
00:56:31He won't go to the police.
00:56:33He'll just keep on going.
00:56:34There's nothing else he can do.
00:56:37It's better that it's happened this way, my dear.
00:56:40You'll forget in time.
00:57:17Let's go.
00:57:24Let's go.
00:58:11Mark, what is it?
00:58:13I don't know.
00:58:15I'll go down and see.
00:58:16You wait here.
00:58:22Mark, what is it?
00:58:42Where is Sheila?
00:58:45What are you doing back here?
00:58:47I took a wrong turn.
00:58:48I must have gotten lost.
00:58:50Where is Jonah?
00:58:51I don't know.
00:58:52I heard a noise, came down 10 till I got a Ricky.
00:58:54his body's gone.
00:58:56That's strange.
00:58:58Yes, isn't it?
00:58:59But that man gets up and walks away.
00:59:02Maybe he wasn't dead.
00:59:04That's ridiculous.
00:59:05His neck was broken.
00:59:06You saw him.
00:59:07I didn't examine him.
00:59:09You did.
00:59:10Well, don't you think we ought to go look for the body?
00:59:14No.
00:59:15I think you should do what you started out to do.
00:59:18Go for the police.
00:59:19I'd only get lost again.
00:59:20I don't know the roads around here.
00:59:21Somebody's got to go.
00:59:22How about you?
00:59:23Why, I can't.
00:59:24My car's broken down.
00:59:26I'll fix it.
00:59:27Besides, I'd want to leave Sheely here alone.
00:59:30She won't be alone, Mark.
00:59:32I'll be with her.
00:59:35You wait here a minute.
00:59:37I'll be right back.
00:59:53Are you listening?
00:59:54Yes.
00:59:54He's hitting Jonah's body, probably in the cellar.
00:59:56We've got to get word of the police.
00:59:58He won't go, and he won't let me take you with me.
01:00:00Well, couldn't wait.
01:00:01No, he won't give us that much time.
01:00:03Have you still got his gun?
01:00:04Yes.
01:00:04All right, now listen carefully.
01:00:06There's a farmhouse about five miles from here.
01:00:08I can go there and get back in about 20 minutes.
01:00:10He'll expect me to be gone for hours.
01:00:13Now, when I leave this room, you lock the door.
01:00:16Use the gun if you have to.
01:00:17If you'd only wait till morning.
01:00:19No, this is what he wants us to do.
01:00:20If we stay in this house tonight, he'll finish his horrible job.
01:00:24Our only chance is to act faster than he does.
01:00:27Do you think you can do it?
01:00:28I'll try.
01:00:29Go ahead.
01:00:30You guard the fire escape with a gun,
01:00:31and I think you can hold him off until I get back.
01:00:34Good luck.
01:01:06Good luck.
01:01:07Sheila, unlock the door.
01:01:09I have to talk to you.
01:01:16I only want to help you, darling.
01:01:18Everything will be all right.
01:01:20I love you, Sheila.
01:01:24I'm going to take you away.
01:01:26You've got to trust me.
01:01:59Hogan...
01:02:00Ha ha!
01:02:02Ha ha!
01:02:05Ha ha!
01:02:06H Anita!
01:02:11Ah, I love you.
01:02:12Uh, yeah.
01:02:18Golden McGiques
01:02:19Justice Decker
01:02:19Ologan
01:02:29All things come to an end.
01:02:34Pull the trigger, Sheila.
01:02:36And it'll be the end of the Tierneys.
01:02:38Don't make me do it, Philip.
01:02:40I don't want to.
01:02:42Pull the trigger, Sheila.
01:02:44You can go downstairs and write the final entry in the family Bible.
01:02:46Philip Tierney died here and now, the last of the Mad Tierneys.
01:02:52I can't.
01:02:56Do whatever you want to, Philip.
01:02:58I don't care.
01:03:01I'm your enemy.
01:03:02If that's what your mind tells you, then go ahead and do it.
01:03:12You could have killed me.
01:03:15Why didn't you?
01:03:16I don't know.
01:03:20Yes, I do know.
01:03:22Because I love you.
01:03:24So many years ago, long before you carved our initials on that tree.
01:03:30I can't remember any further back.
01:03:33I loved you.
01:03:35When we met in Switzerland, I didn't know it, but it was the same love.
01:03:40That's why I married you, Philip.
01:03:42That's why I could never hurt you.
01:03:47I don't want to hurt you, either.
01:03:50But you feel you must.
01:03:51Is that it, Philip?
01:03:53Let me help you.
01:03:56Don't look away.
01:03:59I want to help you.
01:04:02Everything's going to be all right now.
01:04:05Let me help you.
01:04:07Tell me how.
01:04:10Will you do anything I ask?
01:04:12Anything?
01:04:13Anything.
01:04:14What do you want me to do?
01:04:16Come with me.
01:04:17Right now.
01:04:19All right.
01:04:20Here.
01:04:21Take this.
01:04:25Please, I want you to have it.
01:04:46You're not in there.
01:04:48Sheila.
01:04:48You must.
01:04:49I can.
01:04:50I can't.
01:04:50I can't.
01:04:50You must.
01:04:51There's no other way.
01:04:52Now, listen to me.
01:04:54There's nothing out there to be afraid of.
01:04:56It's just an attic, full of dust and cobwebs.
01:05:00When you were a little girl, it was your favorite place to play in rainy days.
01:05:03You remember.
01:05:06This trunk full of old clothes.
01:05:09You used to dress up in it.
01:05:11Remember, darling?
01:05:12No.
01:05:12It'll all come back to you. Believe me.
01:05:14It will. It'll all come back to you.
01:05:18Everything.
01:05:18Don't open the door!
01:05:19I can't even look. If you want to kill me, kill me here, but not torture me.
01:05:25Sheila!
01:06:06family snacks.
01:06:14No!
01:06:18The egg!
01:06:19The blood!
01:06:21The blood of me!
01:06:24It's everywhere!
01:06:26It's blood!
01:06:31You're all dead.
01:06:34You're all dead.
01:06:54It wasn't a dream.
01:06:57It really happened, and I saw it.
01:07:05That's why you brought me back here, wasn't it, Philip?
01:07:08Yes, dear.
01:07:12I tried to run away.
01:07:15But I couldn't.
01:07:16It was buried inside my mind.
01:07:20I didn't remember.
01:07:22I couldn't remember.
01:07:23I would have been insane.
01:07:30I was insane in that sanitarium, wasn't I?
01:07:35No.
01:07:37You saw the kind of horror no child should see.
01:07:41Your mind locked it away.
01:07:44So you'd never see it again.
01:07:47You knew it was there.
01:07:51And you had to dig it out.
01:07:55I searched for years.
01:07:58I found you in Lausanne.
01:08:01But the secret was hidden in your subconscious.
01:08:05Only you and the person who used the axe knew what really happened up here.
01:08:09I had to dig it out.
01:08:11You caused the dreams to start.
01:08:15You took me to Dr. Farrell.
01:08:17And then when nothing else worked,
01:08:20you brought me here.
01:08:26You want to know what happened that night, Philip?
01:08:28I remember now.
01:08:34We lived in a little house.
01:08:37By a stream.
01:08:39My father and I.
01:08:42He was the caretaker.
01:08:45You were one of the family.
01:08:47I remember.
01:08:51They used to let me play up here.
01:08:53On rainy days.
01:08:57It rained that day.
01:09:01I forgot my doll.
01:09:04And.
01:09:05I woke up late at night.
01:09:07And crept back in the house to get it.
01:09:10I came up here.
01:09:14And then I heard someone coming up the stairs.
01:09:17I hid under this bed.
01:09:21And then I saw them.
01:09:25Your father.
01:09:27And your uncle Lawrence.
01:09:32And then he killed them.
01:09:34Who did? Who was it?
01:09:35With the axe.
01:09:38The blood spurred clear across the room.
01:09:41It was all over me.
01:09:45It was all over me.
01:09:48Was it my grandfather?
01:09:50You must have seen who did it.
01:09:51Was it my grandfather?
01:09:56No.
01:09:58It was Jonah.
01:10:05That's the only way it could have happened.
01:10:08Why?
01:10:11They didn't tell me much about it.
01:10:14Jonah married my aunt Lydia.
01:10:16Lydia.
01:10:17She was Mark's mother.
01:10:19Yes.
01:10:22Jonah was Mark's father.
01:10:26They tell me Lydia was a headstrong girl.
01:10:30Rebellious.
01:10:32My grandfather never had much time for anyone but his sons.
01:10:37Lydia in order to get attention through herself at the caretaker.
01:10:41A stable hand named Jonah Snell.
01:10:45When my grandfather found out what happened he made them get married to give the child a name.
01:10:51Lydia died giving birth to Mark.
01:10:55My grandfather brought them into the house.
01:10:58He raised Mark.
01:11:00Beyond that he wouldn't have anything to do with him.
01:11:04Jonah must have brooded and plotted for years.
01:11:07He knew he couldn't have the family name and fortune for himself.
01:11:11But he thought he could get them for his son.
01:11:13He must have been insane.
01:11:15He wasn't then, he was later.
01:11:18He also knew that when my grandfather died, the estate would pass to Lawrence and then to Samuel, my father.
01:11:24After that to the next oldest relative.
01:11:27Mark is three years older than I am.
01:11:30The night my grandfather died, Jonah saw his chance.
01:11:35I don't know how he lured them up here or why he chose this attic.
01:11:39But he slaughtered them.
01:11:41He put the axe in a dead man's hand.
01:11:45So Mark inherited everything.
01:11:47The plantation, the money, the estate.
01:11:52That's when I stopped using the name of tyranny.
01:11:56I swore that I'd never use that name again.
01:12:01Until people could stop whispering it behind closed doors.
01:12:10Listen.
01:12:13Mark.
01:12:14What did you do with the gun?
01:12:16I don't know.
01:12:18I lost it.
01:12:20Get over there.
01:12:28I lost it.
01:12:28Were you successful, Philip?
01:12:32Yes, I'm sure that it did.
01:12:34Now the question is, what are we gonna do about it?
01:12:37The truth has to come out, Mark.
01:12:39Grandfather's name has been stained for 17 years.
01:12:43You're gonna clean it up.
01:12:44They're both dead.
01:12:45What difference does it make?
01:12:47None to you.
01:12:48You're a snell.
01:12:49No.
01:12:50Yes, you never let us forget it, did you?
01:12:52We were poor white trash and we dared link our name with the tyrannies.
01:12:56The pure aristocratic tyrannies.
01:12:58If you look under the surface, you'll find unfair as common as the rest of us.
01:13:03Have you forgotten Lydia?
01:13:05She liked to play in the stables with a hardship.
01:13:08She was your mother, Mark.
01:13:11Now look.
01:13:13I'm willing to believe you were too young to know what Jonah was going to do.
01:13:17If you renounce all claims to the estate and go away, we'll call it even.
01:13:20Very generous of you.
01:13:22Always the fine tyranny gesture.
01:13:25I hate your nobility.
01:13:29It isn't that, Mark.
01:13:31It's just that I'm tired of hatred and revenge.
01:13:35I want only what's mine.
01:13:37But if you refuse, I'll fight you in every court in the land and I'll win.
01:13:43Yes, I knew what he was going to do when he went there that night, but I didn't try to
01:13:46stop it.
01:13:47I wanted it just like he did.
01:13:49Well, he got it for me and I'm going to keep it.
01:13:51If you want to fight, well, let's have it now.
01:14:11Let's go.
01:14:13Let's go.
01:14:19Let's go.
01:14:25Let's go.
01:14:43Let's go.
01:14:44Let's go.
01:14:44Don't shoot!
01:14:46It's not.
01:15:12Come on, now.
01:15:27Philip, where are we going?
01:15:30Anywhere.
01:15:31It's got to take a little time to clean things up here.
01:15:34We can go to Lausanne if you wanted to.
01:15:37They sent me there, didn't they?
01:15:40Yes.
01:15:42Even that madman Jonah couldn't bring himself to murder a child.
01:15:46He knew that your mind had blocked out what it had seen.
01:15:50So he set up a trust fund for you, set you away.
01:15:54Forgot about you.
01:15:57Philip, why did Mark throw Jonah over the railing?
01:16:01Well, the old man must have brooded a long time over what he'd done.
01:16:05He wanted to stop any more killings, I'm sure.
01:16:09He even warned you about the chandelier.
01:16:12Mark was afraid he was going to confess, so he killed him.
01:16:16Come on.
01:16:20We left the old house, silent and foreboding, a place of horror and death.
01:16:28It was truly haunted.
01:16:31No one would ever live there again.
01:16:34It was a house of madness.
01:16:40No one would ever live there again.
01:16:47No one would ever live there, sir.
01:16:48But you'll be dead.
01:16:49You'll be dead.
01:16:49No one would ever live there.
