00:46Where did you hear that?
00:47That's what you told Leslie.

09:11Hello?
09:12Hey, Beth.
09:13It's Mara.
09:14Don't hang up.
09:15Mom is really sick.
09:17I know.
09:20What?
09:21You...
09:22You knew?
09:24Oh my God, you're the one that should be taking care of her.
09:26I can't do this.
09:28Especially after she threw me away and made my childhood a living hell.
09:31What do you know about hell?
09:33You still don't understand anything.
09:36The doctors couldn't do anything?
09:38Let me ask you, Mara.
09:40Have you heard it yet?
09:42What?
09:42Leave now.
09:44Your mother has spent her life keeping it contained.
09:47Don't undo her work.
09:49Don't go into the attic.
09:51Why?
09:56What is happening?
10:03What?
10:04What?
10:05What is in the attic?
10:06Go home back to your daughter.
10:07Your mother has chosen her path.
10:09She will hold it off as long as she can.
10:12I'm sorry.
10:13Good luck.
10:17You're not a little girl.
10:19You're not a little girl.
10:19Okay.
10:21Tomorrow she's seeing the specialist.
10:23Then I'll spend every dime I have putting her in memory care.
10:27and I can go home to Elm.
10:45Mom!
10:54Mom, hey, are you sleepwalking?
10:57It's hungry.
10:59It's been so hungry for so long.
11:03Jesus, you look like death.
11:05No, no, no.
11:07You're burning up.
11:09Your hands are ice cold.
11:11Come on, let's get you back in the bed, okay?
11:14Mom, please.
11:16Let's go.
11:35You'll never catch me.
11:37Ah!
11:40You're gonna live far away,
11:41and you're never gonna come back.
11:43Can you hear me?
11:45You are to never come back to this house!
11:48No, I don't want to leave!
11:51No!
11:52No!
11:53I don't want to leave!
11:55Please!
11:55No!
12:12No!
12:14No!
12:16She's 56.
12:18I know. That's young for dementia.
12:22I miss you, Mom.
12:24Can you come home?
12:27Not yet, baby.
12:29Let me talk to Leslie, okay?
12:32Okay. Bye.
12:33Love you.
12:36It's a mess.
12:38I pulled all these strings
12:40to get her to see a specialist,
12:41and now I can't get her out of the house without hurting herself.
12:43And ambulances won't come out this far.
12:47Why is she fighting you?
12:49I don't know.
12:51I don't know. At first...
12:54At first, I thought it was all an act.
12:56To scare me away.
12:58I mean, she never wanted me back here.
13:02But now she's...
13:06Leslie, she's really weak.
13:09And there's things that...
13:12There's things that she couldn't have done.
13:15Am I crazy for thinking
13:17that there's something in this house?
13:21No.
13:22Being a caregiver is physically and mentally taxing.
13:27You have to take care of yourself, too.
13:30Yeah.
13:43There's something up there.
13:44There's something up there.
14:07Don't open it!
14:08Don't let it out!
14:12I'm here!
14:13Take me!
14:15I've always been by your side.
14:17Mom!
14:18What are you doing?
14:20Don't mind her.
14:21Mom, what is up there?
14:24I'm scared, Mom.
14:27I'm touching.
14:34Mom, watch out!
14:36Are you alright?
14:37Did you hurt your head?
14:39Oh, Marmar, my love.
14:41You shouldn't have come back.
14:42He knows you're here.
14:44It's growing stronger as I get weaker.
14:48Mom.
14:50Mom, what is it?
14:52You have to tell me what's in the attic.
14:54Tell me.
14:55Is this why you sent me away?
14:59Yeah, but Mom, I have spent my entire life thinking that you hated me.
15:02Because whatever this thing is, I deserve to know.
15:05Mom.
15:05I wanted to save you from never needing to know.
15:08Okay, okay, okay.
15:12Where did it come from?
15:14It's been here before the house.
15:16Before the family.
15:17It's been here before anything.
15:19Mom.
15:20Mom, why is it trying to kill you?
15:22Honey, you have it all backward.
15:23Mom.
15:24It's punishing me.
15:26Ever since.
15:28What are you saying?
15:29What are you saying?
15:30What are you saying?
15:32It's you that it wants.
15:35What?
15:39It's you that it wants.
15:41It's me.
15:44We're cursed.
15:46Every mother in this family has to give their daughter this thing.
15:51Mom.
15:52But I refused.
15:54I hate you.
15:57It is taking all of my energy to keep it from you.
16:02If you open that attic.
16:20I can't wait without sleep.
16:50I need to know what this thing is.
16:54I need to know what's in the attic.
17:01Hug her?
17:03There might actually be something in this house making my mom sick.
17:11Well, there has to be some reasonable explanation.
17:16Like, Beth mentioned taking her to the hospital.
17:19Do you know anything about that?
17:20Like, is there any actual diagnosis?
17:24Diagnosis?
17:24No.
17:25But the records, they should, uh, give me some.
17:28Please.
17:32She's been poked and prodded.
17:35A lot.
17:36But...
17:37These don't make any sense.
17:39That's exactly what the doctor said, too.
17:41It's almost like something is eating away at her from the inside.
17:48I think I need to get her to the ER.
17:50Now.
17:52Come on, Mom.
17:54We're going to the emergency room, okay?
17:55I'm having you admitted somewhere.
17:57No.
17:58No doctors.
18:00They can't stop it.
18:03Look at me.
18:04Hey.
18:04We are doing this.
18:07Come on.
18:08Oh, no.
18:09Mom.
18:13I can't!
18:14We're two tied together!
18:17I can't be away from it!
18:20Mom, let me go!
18:37No matter how hard I try, something won't let her leave the house.
18:43Hey, listen, um, do me a favor.
18:46Keep your keys on you.
18:47If you need any help at all, just hit the alarm button.
18:50Fair enough.
18:55Whatever's hurting my mom, I need answers.
18:58She left my room attached to all these years.
19:01I'll start there.
19:07Oh, my God, I remember this.
19:13Wait, did I draw these?
19:22Five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten.
19:27Ready or not, here I come!
19:38Here's one for you.
19:42Will you stay with me until I fall asleep?
19:45I'm scared to be alone.
19:51Mommy found out about my friend.
19:53She's really mad.
19:54She says I can't play with her anymore.
19:57My friend is sad.
19:59My friend says it's okay.
20:01My friend says we'll play again when I'm bigger.
20:05My friend says it can wait forever.
20:16I'm coming in.
20:25I'm coming in.
20:32Whatever you...
20:35You are the reason.
20:39What is this?
20:42What did you draw?
20:46I grew up without my mother.
20:48You have to go.
20:52You are what drove us apart.
21:02No!
21:03Don't let it out!
21:11Where are you?
21:15What's my old drunk doing in here?
21:43Mara, if you were reading this, if you have found it, it means I'm too weak to protect you anymore.
21:48Our family is cursed, Mara.
21:51And as part of the curse, each mother has to sacrifice her daughter.
21:55Every generation. Your grandmother, her mother, you.
22:00Those who refuse to give the creature what it wants, pay the price themselves by wasting away.
22:06Mom.
22:08I tried to outsmart it.
22:10When it started to come for you, I hid you.
22:12I even found a spell to block your memories.
22:15And I searched desperately for a spell to break the curse.
22:19So that you could come back.
22:38And I had to have a spell today.
22:46Did you forget me?
22:52I'm so sorry.
22:53Oh my god.
22:54I remember.
22:57The only thing I do.
23:01Can you tell me?
23:03A story.
23:04Oh my god.
23:08No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!
23:16What's that?
23:17No problem, no more.
23:18Oh, my hair.
23:20Can you hear me?
23:25Get out of my head!
23:36No, no, no, no, no, no.
23:58I thought I'd be dead before you read that.
24:01Before you'd need to know.
24:03Before you opened the attic.
24:05The seal is breaking now, Mara.
24:09Protections are failing because you opened the attic.
24:12I didn't know.
24:14It was always going to come to this.
24:17I just wanted to give you as many years as I could.
24:22I'm so sorry.
24:25I'm sorry.
24:27It's over now.
24:29You were protecting me.
24:32This whole time,
24:34I thought that you didn't love me.
24:38Oh, my darling daughter,
24:40I love you more than my own life.
24:45What is happening?
24:48You let it out!
24:59Oh, my God!
25:02Oh, my God!
25:07Oh, my God!
25:08Oh, my God!
25:09Oh, my God!
25:16I'm the oldest daughter.
25:18I watched her mother waste away trying to protect me.
25:23I didn't know.
25:24But I didn't have any daughters.
25:26So then I watched it go after Ginny, and then you.
25:30It started with our great-great-grandmother.
25:34It was the winter over a century ago.
25:36Her children were starving.
25:39She prayed.
25:40She cursed.
25:41She begged.
25:43Then something from the land answered.
25:54This chest appeared.
25:57It had something old.
26:00It offered prosperity.
26:03Food.
26:04Healthy land.
26:06And in return,
26:08I wanted the daughters.
26:10Six mothers gave their daughters.
26:13Little girls locked in the attic.
26:17We pretended that they ran away.
26:19Five mothers fought back,
26:22sent their daughters away,
26:24became experts at magic and curses
26:27to find answers.
26:29But without the sacrifice,
26:32this is what happens.
26:34Your mother fought harder than anyone.
26:3925 years.
26:41She held it back,
26:44keeping it trapped in the attic.
26:48Until I opened it.
26:51Right now,
26:53it still wants you as a sacrifice, Mar.
26:57But the moment Ginny dies,
26:59the curse passes a generation.
27:04What are you saying?
27:07It won't want you anymore.
27:10It will crave the sacrifice
27:12of a mother's daughter.
27:15It will want me.
27:16Al.
27:19No.
27:20Not my daughter.
27:26Come on, pick up, pick up.
27:28With the attic open,
27:29it can travel.
27:33Lucy, pick up.
27:37Hey, what's up?
27:39Where?
27:39Where's Elle?
27:40Elle's upstairs playing in her room
27:42with an imaginary friend.
27:43Okay, okay.
27:43I need to see her right now.
27:45Okay, I'm going.
27:49Mommy, mommy, look at this.
27:51Seven little angels
27:53floating on a clock.
27:55Seven little devils
27:56rising from the ground.
27:58Where did you learn
27:59that song, sweetie?
28:00From her.
28:09Let me get Elle out of there right now.
28:11Why did you make my friend leave?
28:12What the hell was that thing?
28:17It came back.
28:21Bring her to a church
28:23and light seven candles.
28:26It won't last long,
28:27but it's a small protection.
28:29Okay, okay, just do it.
28:31Do it, okay?
28:31Okay, yeah, we're going.
28:33Come on.
28:34Look at me, okay?
28:35Go with Leslie.
28:36Do everything she says.
28:37Why?
28:38I was having fun.
28:39I love you, okay?
28:41I love you so much.
28:44Oh, my baby.
28:46What if we give this thing
28:47what it wants?
28:48Okay, if it wants me,
28:49let it have me.
28:54If you sacrifice me to this thing,
28:55maybe it'll skip over Elle.
28:57Let it have me.
28:58Your mother has sacrificed
28:59so much to protect you.
29:04I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
29:08Okay, but I don't want protection, okay?
29:09I want my baby to be safe.
29:21Sending you away
29:22was the hardest thing
29:23I ever had to do.
29:25Mara, I can't do it again.
29:29Mama, listen to me, okay?
29:31Listen to me.
29:31Oh, I have to sacrifice myself.
29:33Wait, there might be another way,
29:35but you have to go back up
29:37into the attic.
29:54Do you really think this will vanish?
29:56It's worth a try.
29:58The Scandinavians who first settled here
30:00used this book
30:01to ward off evil spirits.
30:05Perhaps they woke this thing.
30:08But Mara, are you sure?
30:10Please don't do this.
30:12It's too dangerous.
30:15Chris, I tried to save you
30:17and I failed you.
30:22Dad, you didn't fail me.
30:25Okay.
30:26You gave me 25 beautiful ears.
30:30And I have Elle.
30:37I won't let it take her.
30:40I have to try.
30:55I know you're here.
30:57I know you're here.
31:00I know you're here.
31:08Let's finish this.
31:19Once upon a time,
31:21there was a mother.
31:24Once upon a time,
31:27there was a mother
31:30who traveled to a strange place
31:32for a daughter to be married
31:35even though
31:36it wasn't what the daughter wanted
31:43then the mother and daughter were separated
31:46from their group and lost
31:48in the wilderness
31:53starving and desperate
31:55the mother ended her daughter's suffering
32:05when the daughter died
32:07her mother wrapped her in the only thing she had
32:10a silk
32:12meant for a dowry
32:14the mother was unable to move on alone
