To the entity
oppressing the owner of this ring,
I summon thee.
Paint yourself.
Reveal yourself on this canvas.
To the oppressive entity that has taken
control of my wife.
Reveal yourself!
I command thee.
Paint yourself!
No!
Janice, Lucy.
You've got to stop leaving your dishes out.
Stop following me.
Lucy, what are you doing?
Lucy.
Go play with your brother.
Argh!
Adam, Janice wants to borrow the car tonight,
and I said she could.
I never understand
why you collect these dusty old magazines.
It's just... I...
That's research for the business, please.
The bindings are very delicate.
So, Janice wants to borrow the car tonight?
Janice doesn't like me.
Yes, she does.
She's just hormonal.
You know,
back when she was your age,
we'd build these huge forts in the basement.
Drove Mom and Dad nuts.
I made you something.
Oh, wow. That is amazing.
- Are you Evelyn Elster? - Yes.
I'm here representing the Franco estate.
Actually, we've been meaning
to speak with you about your role.
What?
I'm sorry. Weren't you notified?
You've been named the executor of your cousin's estate.
We weren't exactly close.
She's much younger than me.
She married up.
So they were rich?
Filthy.
Her husband
Clive, was old money.
The Franco family.
She didn't even write to me.
You understand?
Not to mention the way she died.
It's just...
absolutely bizarre.
The circumstances. That house.
So you'd get paid by the estate?
Yes. Well, the salary
is ten thousand plus a percentage.
Ten thousand dollars?
Jesus, Ev.
Or we just wait and the estate goes through probate--
No, that could take over a year.
Adam, I... I don't want to go there by myself.
I could come.
We could bring the kids--
Janice has softball camp.
We can cancel softball camp for one year.
She's gonna be really pleased--
This is the opportunity of a lifetime!
You're being selfish.
We've got the appraisers coming next week,
so we've got to catalog everything before Sunday.
Okay, Nelson,
you take the lower level.
Your dad and I will do this floor.
Tag, you're it!
- No running in the house. - She's annoying.
You've decided not to participate,
why don't you go outside and supervise your sister?
Mom, that's not fair.
Fine.
She'll come around.
Wow.
Hey, Mom.
I found something weird.
Paint looks fresh.
Wow. That's...
exotic.
What's going on?
Honey, what do you think?
Eh... What do you mean?
I mean, I don't want
Lucy seeing this sort of thing.
It's salacious.
Sweetheart, will you move this up to the attic for now?
Mahogany.
Not tonight.
Lucy!
Lucy! Get over here!
Girls. Girls!
Janice, stop it. Stop it.
What's going on?
Look what she did to my hair.
- Lucy! - I didn't do it!
Yes, you did. I know it was you.
Okay, Janice. Stop. Both of you.
Apologize to your sister.
Lucy, apologize right now!
But I didn't do it.
She's lying.
It'll grow back.
Hello?
Oh, it's for you.
Are we running low on anything?
Everything.
Don't forget the eggs!
Lucy?
Mommy?
Mommy, come and get me!
Who's... Who's down there?
I can understand that you're upset.
This has nothing to do with you, Evelyn.
They're just-- They're just pictures.
You have two daughters in this house.
- What if they-- - That's why they were hidden!
- I found them. - Then you were looking for them
I was not looking for that.
You know when I think
about all the sacrifices that I have made every day
to protect you.
- To protect them. - From what?
So you wouldn't notice the ship was going under.
Going under?
I lost half my clients last quarter.
Retailers aren't buying local anymore.
The business is hollowed out. They're moving overseas.
I had to drain our savings account
to pay for Nelson's college.
I need some air.
Evelyn?
Adam?
Hmm?
Something happened today.
When I was playing with Lucy.
I saw a...
- What? - I don't know.
Something strange.
It's these paintings,
they're just...
all so creepy.
I don't know what you're talking about.
Forget it.
Lucy.
What's going on? What?
There was someone in here.
- Janice, honey-- - Where?
- Who's in here? - Honey.
Him.
He was right behind me.
I could smell his breath.
All right. Maybe it was just a nightmare.
No, he was right there.
Look, look, look what he did to my hair.
All right, well,
we're going to get rid of this, then.
What the hell?
Nelson, could you give me a hand with this?
Yeah.
Just right here, yeah.
Do something with that.
There.
Now, let's all go to bed.
Hey, did you--
Who's there?
Make me one of the Painted.
Ow.
Where were you last night?
I couldn't sleep.
You know, you don't have
to lie anymore about the magazines.
For God's sake, it wasn't the magazines.
Let's get some work done.
Janice, eat your dinner.
Adam, it's okay.
Your mother and I work very hard
to put this food on the table.
Adam, stop. You're upsetting her.
We can talk about this later.
Why don't we talk about it now?
You can tell them.
The furniture business is failing.
We're saving what we can with this opportunity, but...
after this, money is going to be tight for a while.
- Mommy? - Yes, sweetie?
Do you still love Daddy?
Lucy, why would you ask me that?
Sometimes Mommy and Daddy have disagreements,
but that doesn't mean...
It's just grown-up problems.
You don't have to worry about that.
Okay?
Lucy?
Mommy, come and get me.
Stop!
Nelson! Nelson!
One, two...
Nelson?
What's going on?
You okay?
Where's Mom?
Come on.
What do you want?
Evelyn?
Down here!
We need to get out of here.
Now!
I should have done this weeks ago.
Ev.
Needs to be cleaned.
Would you like to dance? Sure.
You're good.
Hey Lucy.
I just wanted to say
I'm sorry
for blaming you and
everything.
Hey, do you want to do something fun?
They said it was a murder suicide,
but they were newlyweds.
Just doesn't add up.
I think that her husband, Clive,
was trying to summon something
the night they died.
Maybe, it's crazy.
What?
There's something I have to do.
Yeah, cover that hole.
I think this place needs more room.
Yeah.
I'm gonna get some more boxes from upstairs, okay?
Okay.
Hello. What are you doing today?
Hmm, I don't know. What about you?
Hmm.
Would you like to play?
Sure.
Wait!
Lucy!
Don't touch that!
It was just there, in the basement.
I don't know how it got there.
It's okay.
I'll take care of this.
- We're closed today. - No, wait.
I need to know about The Painted.
They called them,
The Painted. Spirits summoned through art.
This book is one of the few surviving manuals.
Why did they do it?
Most spirits continue in death
as they did in life.
These paintings gave them a home
but it also gave malevolent entities a way in.
By the early twenties,
the ritual was permanently retired.
We keep them here for safety.
But the painting that I saw was fresh.
Do you think Clive was--
That's not for me to say.
The Franco family
kept many secrets.
But I do know this.
By the turn of the century, they were among
the foremost practitioners of spirit painting.
They believed, if you became one of the Painted,
then you could never truly die.
Oh, my God.
That's not going to do any good.
She'll keep coming back
no matter where we go
or what we do.
We have to figure out where she came from.
There's something you need to see.
You sure that's the same woman?
Pretty sure.
Her name was Cassandra DuBray.
She's not a relative.
But she knew Iver.
Clive's great, great grandfather.
From Clive to your cousin.
To us.
After Cassandra died,
you get a lot of murders,
suicides, disappearances.
What about the fire?
Right.
The original house burned down in 1907,
killing Iver and his wife.
The house that we were in was built
on the original foundation three years later.
There's only one way to stop this.
I know the ritual,
but we need something else.
Her closest possession.
When I was in the basement, I thought I saw something.
Another room.
I think that's where she keeps it.
That could be the original cellar.
We have to go back,
tonight.
If anything happens,
you call Steve right away.
We'll be back soon.
It's going to be okay.
The paintings.
She may try and use them against us.
Then we burn them.
Oh...
Make me one of the Painted.
Evelyn!
Adam!
Grab a hold of my arm.
Come on.
I saw her.
Cassandra DuBray.
- Ev? - Mm?
There's something that I have to tell you.
What?
We really should get going.
Nelson?
What are you doing?
Nelson?
No!
Nelson?
Open this door!
I saw her.
I saw everything.
It's a curse. And it runs in the family.
And it started with Iver Franco.
He was the most gifted spiritualist of his time.
Famous for his ability to summon paintings
of the dead.
Then one day, he met Cassandra DuBray.
A cosmopolitan heiress.
That night,
they made a lover's promise
to run away together and marry in secret.
But it wasn't meant to be.
At the age of 29,
Cassandra unexpectedly
became terminally ill.
Make me one of the Painted.
So he prepared a bewitched painting.
A place where their spirits could live
and love forever.
After her death,
he would conduct the ritual
binding her spirit to the painting he designed.
Then he would take
his own life and join her.
Cassandra DuBray.
I summon thee!
But when it came time for him
to prove his undying love to her,
to join her as one of the Painted,
He did not.
He abandoned Cassandra.
Doomed her to spend
eternity alone.
So she cursed Iver.
And all of his descendants.
Then she became a demon,
a succubus.
She possesses the men to kill the women.
Right down the line.
She wanted to get inside of me.
What do you mean?
There's something that I need to tell you.
He took her!
- He took her to the basement! - What?
Honey, what are you talking about?
Nelson took Lucy to the basement!
And he locked the door,
There's something wrong with him!
- Nelson! - I'll get the key!
Nelson!
Get her out of here!
Let's go!
Give me the chair! Hand me the chair!
Go, go, go, go!
Adam!
We have to start the ritual.
All right, girls. Listen, listen.
Go to Officer Steve's house and stay put.
What about Nelson?
Do not come back to this house tonight
under any circumstances.
Do you understand?
We're not going to need that.
Jesus.
We need to barricade this door!
One more thing.
As soon as we lift the curse,
we have to unbind her soul from the painting.
What? How?
We burn it!
Okay.
Together.
Iver Franco, we summon thee!
Paint yourself on this canvas!
Reveal yourself!
Join your beloved.
- This isn't working. - Just, again.
Iver Franco, we summon thee!
We have to go back.
Iver Franco, we summon thee.
Paint yourself on this canvas.
- Reveal yourself. - Reveal yourself!
We command you.
No, no, no.
This isn't working. This is supposed to work.
Are you certain?
Yes, look at the painting. Look at her arm.
It's supposed to end like this. It has to.
We're supposed to bring them back together.
Iver made a vow.
But he was too cowardly
to make the sacrifice in life.
Now, in death...
"In order for a spirit to precipitate
it must be a willing participant.
The ritual is, in effect,
a petition
which the entity can refuse."
He's not coming.
He won't come.
She needs a sacrifice.
The vow that Iver broke,
needs to be fulfilled.
Yes, but how?
There's something I need to tell you.
When we were...
at the house that night.
I went to the attic.
And she came to me.
We were together.
I'm so sorry.
She tried to take my daughter's life.
And now she has my son.
This ends tonight.
I'm sorry.
What have you done?
It's all there, ready for you now.
It had to be me.
A willing participant.
Please don't hate me.
No, no, no. Adam.
Adam.
No, no, no. Adam.
Adam!
Adam.
Adam Elster.
I summon you.
Nelson?
Cassandra?
No!
Hey.
What happened?
