- What police are calling a brutal slaying.
Several Lakewood citizens were murdered a few weeks ago
by a masked killer.
Including Lakewood High students and local law enforcement.
The masked killer was student, Kendrick Watson.
(foreboding music)
A cult calling themselves The Trepidation
has been accused of orchestrating the killings.
They seem to have been after Brittany Kent
and Jaylen Matthews.
The same victims of the Lakewood Massacre of 2023.
(foreboding music)
Breaking news.
Brittany Kent and Jaylen Matthews
once seen as victims are now suspects
in a string of recent killings.
Protestors are outside city hall demanding answers,
chanting that the so-called Lakewood survivors
were never victims at all,
but killers hiding in plain sight.
This accusation is fueling fears
that The Trepidation never truly died.
This would mean that both Brittany and Jaylen
were not only witnesses but masterminds
of the trepidation murders.
Police have yet to issue an arrest warrant,
but the investigation continues.
(pensive music)
Hilliard University hasn't been the same
since the killings two years ago.
Enrollment is down, security is everywhere.
And no one walks the campus alone after dark.
- Always forgetting something.

(phone ringing)
Hey, babe.
Yeah, I'm still here.
(sighs) You know me, always forgetting something.
- [Rob] You gotta stop staying late by yourself, El.
Especially working what you do.
- [Dr. Coat] It's fine, really.
Uh. (sighs)
It's just a folder, I mean.
(object clangs)
(suspenseful music)
- [Rob] What was that?
Ellen.
Babe, you there?
Hello?
(suspenseful music) (footsteps tapping)
You know it still freaks me out,
that was your campus, Ellen.
(phone beeps)
(Ellen scoffs)
- I know, it's just hard to believe,
it's been two years.
- [Rob] Two years.
And they never caught whoever started it.
Claim they never found the bodies.
- I mean, if Jaylen said he killed one,
we can't find a body, what do you think?
(sighs) But enough about that.
(sighs) You ready for our date?
- [Rob] I sure am.
I'm dressed and waiting for you to get home.
- I'm coming, I just need to. (light clicking)
(Ellen sighs)
(phone beeps)
(suspenseful music)
I'm gonna have to call you back.
- [Rob] Ellen, wait, what?
(phone beeps)
- Hello?
Is anybody there?

If you're a student, you need to.

- So, it's not looking too good for y'all.
- What do you mean?
- The only footage we have
are you guys leaving the crime scenes,
bloody with knives in your hand from Lakewood and Hilliard.
- But the world knows that it was Kendrick the first time,
and an entire cult the second time.
Including Alexis, Demetrius, and my God damn brother Jamal.
- And why the hell would we just randomly kill
our own friends and family?
- It's okay, it's okay, I know y'all are innocent.
The Governor's office wants this closed, fast.
But I'm not letting them lock you up
for something you didn't do.
I've been chasing this case since Hilliard.
And I believe you, every word.
I can help you, I just need you to trust me.
- Trust?
That's all we've been doing, Chris.
Running, hiding, trying to prove we're not psychos.
- And every time, somebody else dies.
- Jay, listen, the world saw the footage.
They don't care about the cult, they just want names.
- Then fucking give them Kendrick's, give them Demetrius'.
- They're dead, man!
The world doesn't remember the details,
just blood and faces.
They never even found any of their bodies!
You're still alive
so of course they'll gonna try to pin it on you.
Here's what I can do.
I'm gonna stall the press,
run interference with the higher ups,
and keep you two off the immediate watch lists.
I can't lie forever, and I can't fight the whole department.
But I can buy you time.
- You really think this is gonna end?
- Not unless we end it.
(objects scrape and clatter)
You're both free to go.
Officially, you both persons of interest.
Unofficially, I'm your friends.
And I'm gonna help you, 'cause that's what friends do,
they stay together.
(Jaylen sighs)
- Welcome to the Losers Club.
(Jaylen sighs)
(Brittany sighs)
- Thank you.
(pensive music)
(suspenseful music)
- (sighs) Thank the Lord they had a shortcut.
- Was not trying to deal with the press.
- Brittany, Jaylen!
Are you the real killers?
Did y'all fake the attack at Lakewood?
(reporter groans)
- Man, if you don't get the hell out my face!
- Jaylen, stop, you're making it worse!
- Worse? They already think we did it.
What, you want me to smile for the cameras too?
(Brittany sighs)
I had to kill my God damn brother behind this shit.
Had to cut off my parents.
I got nobody left but you.
So I'm not giving these people what they want.
- We can't lose it now!
Chris believes us, that's all anyone else has!
- Yeah, for now.
- (sighs) You don't get it?
I lost my job, I'm pregnant.
Every news lines has my name under Murder Suspect.
You're not the only one this ruined.
- (sighs) You could've left, disappeared, started over.
- And leave you?
After everything we survived?
No, I'm not doing that again.
We have to be smart and stick together.
- (sighs) Maybe you're right.
- Okay, I have to head back to Lakewood, but please be safe.
And keep your phone on you.
I love you.
- (sighs) I love you too.
(pensive music)
- Hey, Jaylen, one last question, one last question.
(reporter groans)
(body thuds)
(horn honks)
(door clicks)
(door creaking)
- You made it back safe.
I was starting to think the cops kept you.
- They wanted to, Chris talked them down.
- He's good people.
But I don't know how much longer he can keep that up though.
- (sighs) Yeah, just running out of people who believe us.
- Hey, I do, I always will.
- I just, I just want this over.
- Then we'll end it together, whatever it takes.
(person speaking indistinctly)
(foreboding music)
You all right?
- Yeah.
Just tired.
- Mm.
(footsteps tapping)
(door clicks and creaks)
- Feels so good to be back here.
- I can imagine, we've been quiet without you.
(door clicks)
- What's all this?
- Figured you deserved to come home
to something that put your mind at ease.
- You're too good for me.
- That's a lie, but I'll take it.
Actually, uh, there's something I wanted to do
before life gets crazy again.
- Keith, what did you.
- Brit, we've been through
more than anyone should have to go through.
You've seen things most people wouldn't survive.
And through it all, you've still got that same smile,
the same light, the same fight.
And I love that about you and I love you.
So if it's not too crazy, and if it's not too soon.
Will you marry me?
- [Brittany] Yes, Keith, of course, of course.
(dramatic music)
- I don't care what comes next.
This, us, it's the one thing that still makes sense.
- And we'll hold onto it.
This, this is our family now.
I lost my mother when I was young,
and I never knew my father.
No matter what happen, we'll always protect this family.
- We will.
(lips smack)
We will.
(gentle music) (crowd chattering)
(Jaylen sighs)
- Yo, yo, that's the dude who killed all those people.
- Stop, I believe he was the victim.
- Oh, you didn't read the article, huh?
He stabbed one of them like 20 times!
- Man, I would hate to be that guy!
All the victims were his friends.
- Man, all that stuff were crazy,
I hope one day this campus can go back to normal.
- Destiny, nothing here's the same after what happened.
- You sound like my mom right now.
- Well, maybe she's smart.
- Or maybe she watches too much TV.
- Eh, either way, I ain't worried.
That was years ago.
And ain't no mask dudes coming back now.
- Stop it, you just jinxed it!
- Man, I'm not going out like a loser,
and let somebody in a mask.
- Tyson, slow as hell.
- (scoffs) I'm fast!
- You got tired going to class earlier.
- Because it was hot!
- It was 72 degrees.
- Bro, you was sweating like somebody was chasing you.
- And I was glistening, there's a difference.
- Man, please.
- Man, whatever, bro.
All I'm sayin is,
if the killer really popped out right now, I'd be fine.
- No you wouldn't.
- Man, let's be honest here, the order of death?
First is Tyson, then me, then Destiny.
And Lex, she's living the longest for sure.
- Damn, why Destiny gotta die?
- Yeah, Luke, what the hell?
- Because the killer always go for the loud ones.
- [Destiny] Oh, shut up.
(group chattering) (pensive music)
- Hey, Malachi, come on. - Come on.
- [Malachi] My bad.
(footsteps tapping)
- This still feels weird in here.
- We really sitting in the same place
where three people died.
- Yeah, they could have at least redone the place.
Changed the lights or something.
- Man, who cares!
This fries slap the same whether somebody died here or not.
- Tyson, please don't say "died" while I'm eating.
(Tyson chuckles)
- Man, you eat slow as hell.
You good?
- Yeah, I'm good, just my stomach, man.
- Are you okay?
- I said I'm good, damn.
- Man, stop acting like a bitch.
- Bro, relax.
You know that Tyson play too much.
- Y'all saw that?
- Saw what?
- The light.
- It's a cheap restaurant, relax.
- You sure you good?
- Yeah, just the headache.
- You stressed.
End of the semester got everybody tripping.
- Yeah, you're right.
I'll be right back.

(Tyson chuckles)
- Uh, this locked door, bro. - What the hell?

(footsteps tapping)
Hey, Brit, what's wrong?
(Brittany sighs)
- It's happening again.
- Brit, we've been through this before.
You've been through it twice.
You are a fighter.
- I know, Keith.
The last time you almost died in my arms.
I still wake up hearing you trying to breathe that night.
- We're not fighting for just us no more.
- That's why I'm scared, this thing keeps coming back.
And it always finds us.
It shows up stronger, smarter, closer.
- I'm gonna protect this baby.
I don't care what I got to do.
I will not let him take my family from me.
- I feel like, I feel like it knows I'm pregnant.
(glass shatters)

(reporters chattering) (camera clicking)
- Governor Pierce, Governor Pierce,
can you confirm the number of students killed?
- Is Hilliard University still under lockdown?
- Is this connected to the previous cycle of killings?
(reporters chattering) (camera clicking)
- Everyone, please, I will answer what I can.
First, I would like to say
that my heart goes out to the families
of the four young students whose lives were taken
in such a brutal way last night.
What happened was a tragedy beyond words
and my entire state is grieving with them.
We have activated a full scale investigation
with both state police and federal assistance.
We are working with Hilliard University
to ensure students are safe, protected,
and will be increased patrols on and around campus
and residence halls.
- Governor, is it true that the suspect was wearing
the same mask from the past Trepidation cult killings?
- At this time, we're not confirming any details
about the suspect's appearance.
I am asking the public to avoid speculation
and allow law enforcement to do their job.
Panic will not help anybody.
- Do you believe this is a copycat killer?
- Or the start of something bigger?
- We are treating this as an isolated incident
until we have evidence otherwise.
That is all I can say right now.
- Governor, survivors from decades ago are saying
that the killings were part of a prophecy.
Do you believe that any of that is true?
(Pierce laughs)
- No, this administration does not operate on superstition.
Only facts.
- Can you guarantee the safety
of Hilliard's students tonight?
- We will do everything in our power.
But I can ensure that Jaylen and Brittany
will have my direct assistance in this crisis.
- Governor, are you scared?
- Guys, we should all be cautious right now.
But thank you all and have a nice day.

(package rustling)
(door clicks)
Uh, who are you?
- Um, my, my name is Malachi Johnson.
Um, my friends (indistinct) were killed yesterday.
And (stammers) I came to you because-
- And you came to me because I've been through this before
and you think I can help you.
- [Malachi] (stammers) No.
- But no, but no, I can't do shit, okay?
So my advice to you is to leave this campus,
and to never come back.
(Jaylen sighs)
Bye.
(door thuds)
- No.
I came here because I saw you.
- What?
- (stammers) I don't know what the hell happen this morning.
But I woke up with the crazy headache, I,
I saw things, felt things, heard things.
- Things like what?
- I saw you.
Brittany.
My dead friends, your dead friends, the killer.
- Hey, this better be no fucking joke.
- It's not!
I also heard the words, hand, harbinger, and chosen.
(suspenseful music)
(Jaylen sighs)
What, where are you going?
- Look, bro, you come up to my door
speaking that hoodoo shit thing,
saying you have visions and stuff, man,
Go somewhere else with that BS.
- I'm telling the truth!
Please, just listen, I saw you, I saw the killer.
I saw Brittany, I saw everything. I don't know what it means
but I know I was not supposed to see that.
- Look, man, you don't want no part of this.
You think this visions shit is cute?
You think this some spiritual nightmare movie, it's not.
Once this start, it never ends,
and you can never wanna like them.
- Then help me.
- (scoffs) Help you.
I cannot even help myself.
- (stammers) Then why did I see you?
Look, I swear on my mind.
I see all my friends died, I have no one left.
I see, I hear voices that aren't from this world.
I've seen a bloody human eye, a human eye!
So, if you think I'm doing this to annoy you,
or because I want your attention, you got the wrong guy.
- (sighs) Look, bro.
You need to leave campus, for real.
Go home, go anywhere else, do something,
but all I know is, you got to get the hell out of here.
- Leave?
I can't leave.
I don't know what any of this means.
And you think this is all happening again,
the best option is to leave?
(suspenseful music) (footsteps tapping)
Look, I saw you for a reason.
I think those words mean something.
Hand.
Harbinger.
Chosen.
(footsteps tapping)
Please.
Please, help me.
(Jaylen sighs)
- Look, I.
(mysterious music)
(foreboding music)
What the hell is that?
(foreboding music)
(footsteps tapping)
(zombies growling)
(footsteps tapping)
- They getting closer.
- Just shut up and run!
(footsteps tapping)
(foreboding music)
(footsteps tapping) (zombies growling)
(both panting)
(footsteps tapping)
Come here, let's go.
(footsteps tapping)
(ominous music)
(foreboding music)
- Tyson.
- You know him?
- Yeah, he's, he's one of my friends that died last night.
(stammers) He shouldn't be here!
- That's mean.
(ominous music)
They're all dead.

(sirens blaring)
(car engine revving)
(thunder rumbles)
(ominous music)
- Why us?
Why is it coming for us?
(Jaylen sighs)
- Look, man,
this thing that happened with me and Brit for what,
three years now?
(Jaylen speaks indistinctly)
Your friends got killed.
The fricking bridge last night,
we had dead students chased us around the fricking campus.
This, this is way different than last time.
(Jaylen speaks indistinctly)
- Feels like we're in some, some sci-fi.
The dead, the visions, my friends. (sighs)
It feels like something is inside of me.
- I know, man.
I've been feeling that feeling way too long.
- But, Jaylen, I don't, I don't understand.
What does it want?
(suspenseful music)
(Jaylen sighs)
- Well, um, it's just been after me and Brittany,
but now, now you're in the mix.
And we keep surviving for some odd reasons,
so I don't know what the hell is going on,
but I think it wants us part of whatever is happening.
- But why everybody else, it's like,
they're just in the way.
They die, come back alive, and they're after us.
It's like we're the target.
- Not the target, the point.
Everything you been through, it's like,
this was pushing us toward something.
- [Milachi] So what do we do, run?
- No, we don't run, running did nothing last time.
This killer is getting stronger.
Everything getting stronger, the killer, the dead,
all of it.
We gotta figure out what connects us.
- But you been through this twice.
But that was just regular kills from a cult.
This time is different.
The dead coming back alive, visions.
- Something chose us.
Or cursed us.
Or whatever it is, this is a force, I've never seen before.
We got chased by Goddamn dead people.
You're seeing visions.
Whatever it is, this is definitely not like last time.
This, this shit is crazy.
- We need help.
We need Brittany.
- (sighs) Definitely.
(foreboding music)
(phone ringing)
- Hello.
- Britt, you home?
- Yeah, what happened, are you okay?
- Look, I, I know this sound crazy,
but it came after us again.
This time with dead students,
dead students from across campus.
- Jaylen, slow down, what do you mean dead students?
And who is us?
- I'll explain it all when you get here.
But you gotta meet us at the campus, please.
Something is happening and it is way worse than last time.
- Brit, what you talking about?
You ain't going nowhere.
- Jay, I cannot just leave, I don't know what this is.
- (sighs) I know.
I know, but I would not call you if it was not for real.
This thing is coming for all of us.
You included.
- Brittany, hang up that phone.
- Keith, stop.
- No, you're pregnant.
You ain't getting dragged back into this.
You hear me?
You're not.
- Keith, I need to hear what he is saying.
- Brittany, you're not leaving this house.
You're not risking your life for this, not again.
(Brittany groans)
(water sloshes) (suspenseful music)
You stay here, you hear me?
You stay here with me.
You're not going nowhere.
(suspenseful music)
(light clicking) (person speaking indistinctly)
(Brittany gasps)
- Jaylen, I'mma call you back.
(phone beeps)
- Stay here.
You stay here.
You belong to us.
You belong to the prophecy.
You carry the next one.
You do not leave.
You do not fight.
You obey.
Brittany.
Baby, are you all right?
You good?
Talk to me.
You carry our future.
You will never escape.
(Brittany breathing heavily)
You belong to death.
You are the chosen.
(Brittany screams)
(Brittany panting)
Brit, talk to me.
You good?
You all right?
(Brittany panting)
Brittany.
What's wrong?
(drawer clatters)
(keys jingle)

(Brittany panting)
Brittany, Brittany, what's going on?
Where are you going?
(car engine revving)
Wait.
(car engine revving)
(pensive music)
(Malachi sighs)
- Is she coming?
(Jaylen sighs)
Jaylen, is Brittany coming?
(Jaylen sighs)
- Hopefully.
- Uh, can I, can I use your bathroom?
- Yeah, it's in my room to the left.
- All right.
(door clatters)
(dramatic music)
(Jaylen sighing)
(knuckles rapping)
(Jaylen sighs)
- I'm coming, Brittany.

(Jaylen gasps)
(Jaylen breathing heavily)
(foreboding music)
What the hell?
(door clicks)
(Jaylen breathing heavily)
- Yow, you, you good?
(door clatters)
Jaylen. - Yeah.
- [Malachi] You not good.
(Jaylen breathing heavily)
What's up?
- I just had a vision.
(Jaylen breathing heavily)
It attacked me.
- It?
- I felt everything.
And right there.
Right here. (sighs)
It, it said, (sighs)
"Let the hand rise."
Ring and blood.
- (stammers) It's talking to you.
- (sighs) It's claiming me.
- What the hell is going on?
(knuckles rapping)
(ominous music)
Is that her?
(ominous music increases)
(door clicks)
(gentle music)
(Jaylen chuckles softly)
(Brittany sighs)
- Who the hell are you?
- Uh.
(Malachi scoffs)
(door clatters)
- Officer, do you have any idea
how government protocol works?
- We got another attack.
- What?
- It happened on campus again.
Students reported screaming, running.
I found blood on the bridge.
(Pierce sighs)
- All right, slow down, calm down.
Now, start from the top.
- Sir, it was Jaylen Matthews who called it in.
He said, him and another student were chased.
He said it was the dead students who chased him.
The ones who died at the restaurant and some others.
And with multiple students going missing,
which we haven't reported due to your orders,
I think they are the dead students.
- Officer, we have gone over this before.
Jaylen is traumatized.
He's imagining things.
He exaggerates.
And the media loves when he speaks.
I chose not to make the news public
because I'm tired of the press
being outside this office every second of the day.
- I know it sounds insane.
But Governor, respectfully, I literally saw the aftermath.
It looked like a riot.
There was blood everywhere.
We found no suspect.
- Jaylen needs help.
Therapy, maybe relocation.
We can arrange witness protection again.
- First of all, you just offer them help publicly.
Sir, this not paranoia, this not trauma.
Something real is happening out there.
Can you really sit here and say you don't believe him,
when a fucking cult was attacking this campus
not even two years ago?
- Christopher.
The boy brings chaos everywhere he goes.
Whenever his name appears, bodies show up.
There is a pattern.
Witness protection would be the best thing for him.
- You trying to get him out the state?
- I'm trying to keep things under control.
And don't even get me started on that insane woman Brittany.
- Sir, people are dying.
If we do not act fast
the whole campus is going to fall apart.
This is something new, something darker.
And it's not gonna stop.
(foreboding music)
(Chris sighs)
- Officer, there's no zombies, no demons.
None of this makes believe stuff the kid told you.
- Sir.
You can hide reports.
Silence the press.
Call it trauma.
Call it panic.
But something is out there right now, and it is coming.
- His voice changed.
He was talking to me and then it wasn't him anymore.
- The distortion, the, the voices,
it's everything I been hearing.
- (sighs) His face changed.
His voice turned dark.
It was like something else was speaking through him.
(stammers) He said, "You belong to us,
you carry the future, you are the chosen."
- He talked to me too.
- Wait, you saw something too?
- Yeah, um, right before you came, I had a vision.
And I opened the door, and he stabbed me.
I felt the pain, the knife, everything.
And then the whiteboard, written in blood said,
"Let the hand rise."
- Wait.
Those three words, hand, harbinger, chosen.
- Wait, so what does that mean for us?
- You heard the word chosen.
You pregnant with something he want.
- So what?
I'm supposed to be this chosen thing.
For what?
Something that has already ruined my life.
- No.
No, no, no, no.
You the one it needs.
That's why this time is different.
I mean, the cult was going after us before.
They're using dead victims to chase us.
Using visions to mess with our mind.
But I know it sound crazy,
but this gonna be connected to your baby somehow.
You are the chosen.
- Well, if she's the chosen, that makes you the hand.
You said he wanted you to rise.
Like it felt like it was claiming you.
I think he you to kill with them.
It wants you to bring death.
So, if Jaylen is the hand, and I'm the chosen,
then that makes you.
- The harbinger.
I keep seeing the future, death, warnings.
It's like I'm being dragged into something.
- So that's us.
Hand.
Harbinger.
Chosen.
- So if this prophecy is real,
then it means something is coming.
Something bigger than we ever seen before.
- What-what you doing?
(Jaylen sighs)
- Getting us the help we need.
(phone ringing)
- [Chris] It's Jaylen.
(phone ringing)
Hello.
- Chris, look, we need you, man, like right now.
(phone clatters)
(suspenseful music)
- Where y'all at?
- Chris, it's me.
- Brittany, you-you good?
- Hell no, I ain't good, the fuck.
I got evil shit whispering in my house,
my man's voice turned into the killer,
and dead college students running around campus.
Get over here now.
- She sounds passionate.
- And tell your lil' Governor friend
he can bring his ass too
since he love being in everybody business anyway.
- All right, lock the doors, I'm coming.
(phone beeping) - Did she said to bring my-
- You said you wanted to help.
- Did you really tell the Governor to bring his ass?
- If he wants to live, he better.
- You're gonna regret it.

(Maureen sighs)
- You two, you guys have haunted me since the fall of 2023.
- That's when all this started.
You know us?
- The survivors, I feared this day would come.
From the moment I saw you, I knew in the depths of my being,
it was only a matter of time before we'd meet.
I didn't want it to be true.
I tried to ignore it,
but only one thing has a grip on your soul,
it's the prophecy.
It wiped my entire family out.
It came back almost three years ago.
It's not finished yet.
You two are entangled.
Once you're touched you'll never be able
to rid yourself out of this curse.
It is coming for you, chosen, hand.
It just needs the final piece.
The third.
- Um, (stammers) Are you okay, ma'am?
(foreboding music)
- There you are.
- What the hell do you mean "there you are?"
- He's marked, just like the last one.
This time, it's different.
He's a bloodline Harbinger.
- (stammers) I don't, I don't know what that means.
- You see before others do.
You feel the cycle waking up.
Your mind is louder than the world around you.
- We know what he is but we don't know what it means.
We don't know what any of this means.
- It means the curse speaks through him first.
It uses him as a warning and a punishment.
- I don't want this, I can't- - No.
You were born for this.
You're the one who can stop this!
- Born for what?
- To lead the Hand and the Chosen, to end the cycle.
- How do you know all this?
- I'm cursed with knowledge, with the truth.
I survived but it won't get out my head.
It's going to torture me until I die.
- How do we stop it?
How do we end it?
(foreboding music)
(foreboding music continues)
- What the hell?
- Only a bloodline harbinger can end The Trepidation.
Only someone tied to the first blood.
Only someone it fears and needs,
having a harbinger that's from the bloodline
is extremely rare.
You.
You are the last of them.
- What?
No, you must be confused.
I don't remember any of my family talking about this.
- Because they're dead, they failed to end it.
Who knows the last time one
of your bloodline was a Harbinger.
But the cycle is awake now
and The Trepidation has already sensed you too.
You can end it!
- So, all the dead people that chased us last night.
What's up with them?
Is there anyway to save them?
- I'm afraid not, dear.
Everyone who was ever been killed by The Trepidation,
and the vessel deems them worthy, is apart of the dead army.
They can't be saved because their souls are free.
All they are, are mindless creatures puppeteered by it.
The more they kill,
the more powerful and conscious they get.
Which results to the host getting more powerful.
The only way to free them is by killing their leader.
- Um, could you explain to us,
whatever this prophecy is that you are referring to?
- Three roles.
Three anchors.
Three pieces of the cycle.
All which are doomed once they are marked.
But now, now we have a chance!
(pages rustling)
(hand taps)
The Harbinger.
The one who sees death before it comes.
The messenger nobody hears until it's too late.
The start of the cycle or the end.
It, it wants your eye to continue the curse.
You can see the future on how to stop it,
that's why they need it.
They want it for themselves.
(pages rustling)
(hand taps)
The Hand.
The killer made from the living.
It marked you years ago.
Broke you down.
Took everything from you
to turn you into the monster the world sees you as today.
It wants you to kill with them.
Wants you to embrace death itself.
(pages rustling)
And last, the Chosen, the vessel.
The embodiment of evil.
The one who ends the cycle or births the next one.
- No, hell no.
- It's rare to have a chosen who is with child.
Most cycles don't allow it.
The Chosen is usually taken before a child can ever come.
But you, you made it this far.
This means the darkness isn't just after you anymore.
It's after whatever's growing inside of you.
Your baby is cursed with you.
Doomed from conception.
And the reason you are seeing things, such terrible things,
is because it wants to break you.
It wants to break your mind
so it's easier to break your spirit.
So the essence transfer can be successful.
- What's the essence transfer?
- The essence transfer is what happens
when The Trepidation chooses a new body, a new host.
It's how the cycle survives.
How it stays alive through the centuries.
When the current host starts to weaken
or when a stronger vessel appears, that's when it begins.
It uses it's cursed blade to impale the curse
into the Chosen.
- So what happens if we don't stop it?
- Then the cycle resets.
The baby becomes the next vessel.
This world will be painted red with blood.
And the curse continues.
The Trepidation at its core is not a cult, it's not human,
it's a force not of this world.
And it is determined to produce fear and feed on death.
And it will, if you don't stop this.

- She just died right in front of us.
And it was right behind her watching her die.
- What the hell do we do now?
(Malachi panting)
(Jaylen sighs)
- We were never supposed to save her.
- What?
- (sighs) That's why it let us get all the way there.
Why it didn't show up until the end.
Why it didn't touch her until she said too much.
It wanted us to watch her die.
It wanted us to hear everything.
- But, but why?
Why would he do this?
- (sighs) To break us.
- So all that, her telling us the prophecy, her dying,
all that's part of the plan?
- (sighs) It wanted us to show
how hopeless odd this BS really is.
How deep this curse goes.
It wanted us to feel like we already lost.
- Jaylen, stop, I can't-
- Brit, it's not gonna stop.
It never will.
(Jaylen sighs)
(Brittany sighs)
(pages rustling)
(Jaylen sighs)
The world dying?
- [Malachi] What does it say, Jaylen?
- If the Transfer completes without refusal,
the dead will no longer sleep.
The boundary between life and death will thin.
The living will grow fewer.
The remembered will grow restless.
This definitely not announce itself with fire or sky fall.
It will arrive quietly.
One body at a time, one night at a time.
One time at a time,
until the world forgets what it means to be whole.

Life got turned upside down.
- Yeah, he reminds me of me when I was started.
Young, scared, and confused.
- Yeah, me too.
(phone dings)
(Brittany gasps and sighs)
- Brit, what?
What is it?
Pierce, dead?
- Yes, we just saw him.
How did that thing get to him so fast?
No, no, we can't lose it, not now.
Tomorrow's coming.
- Maybe for you, there's a tomorrow.
But, but I think it's the end for me.
I, I think I want it to end.
- No, we have to believe there's a way out.
- A way out of what, Brit?
A way out of what?
Is it, is it the dead army chasing us?
Is it the, the world treating us like monsters.
Or is it the fricking thing
that keeps coming back and killing everybody around us.
- We have to find a way to end this, to save ourselves.
- Save ourselves? Where was all this saving the world
when they blamed us for Kendrick, for Alexis, for,
for Demetrius, for Jamal.
Where was all this saving when the whole world looked at us
like we chose to live while everyone else died.
- Jaylen, please stop.
Don't do this to yourself again.
- Do what, Brit, do what?
(stammers) I'm tired.
I'm tired of the world looking at me, re-recording,
whispering, waiting for me to snap.
And that's what it wants too.
- Stop, you're scaring me.
- You don't think I know that?
I watched everybody fall around me, everybody.
You think that I'm not terrified
that one day I will wake up
and become exactly what they say I am.
- Jaylen, look at me.
You're not evil.
You're not some monster.
You're a survivor.
You've been through this twice, and you still here with me.
- Brit, you don't know what it's like
to carry all that blood on your name.
- But I do, because I'm carrying it too.
I lost my job, I lost my friends.
I cannot walk in a grocery store without people looking
at my stomach like I already ruined the world.
So yes, I get it.
(Jaylen sighs)
- Brit, I'm just so, so tired.
I'm so tired of.
It feels like everybody wants me to die.
- Stop, you're not alone.
I'm right here.
- I'm scared, Brit.
- Me too.
But I choose you.
Every day I choose you, even now, especially now.

- But you died, Chris saw it!
- He saw what I wanted him to see.
Visions are my favorite trick.
Show a cop a corpse, show a city a tragedy,
and no one ever asks what's real.
- It was you, all this time, you started all of this?
- Oh, Brittany, I started this cycle.
But the curse?
It started long before either of us was even born.
This blade was forged long before the first cycle.
From a place between life, death.
But when the very first was cursed with the power,
they were able to make a deal, a promise.
- What?
What deal?
- That every few generations,
a Harbinger would be born into the original bloodline.
Someone who could end the curse forever.
- So you part of Malachi's family?
- No.
He's the threat.
The one person the curse fears.
The prophecy calls him the end.
All I need is his eye.
And Brittany.
- Don't, don't come near me.
(suspenseful music)
- See, your mother and I was happy right before she left me.
She knew what I was becoming.
She knew the curse chose me as the next Trepidation,
and she ran before it consumed me fully.
- You're lying.
You're lying, you're lying.
- No.
Hell no.
This is not real.
What about Kendrick?
What about Demetrius?
What about Alicia?
What about Jamal?
They killed so many so I know you're lying.
- They wasn't chosen, they wasn't special,
nor were they important.
Four wounded children.
Four empty sacrifices.
None of them meant anything to the curse.
They were never part of the cycle.
- Then why let them die?
Why make me kill my brother?
- Because I needed you hollow.
I needed Brittany afraid.
And I needed the two of you blaming yourselves.
Their suffering wasn't pointless, Jaylen.
It was useful.
They thought their pain had meaning, it didn't.
- No, this ain't real.
This is just another vision, another trick.
- There's no trick, boy.
It all led up to this moment.
And the end is now.
The current host has full freedom to pick the next Chosen.
And when I saw her as an infant, I knew.
I knew my daughter, my baby girl,
was the one meant to be the next.
But now.
Now, you will birth the cycle's future.
- What?
You want my child?
- A transfer from my bloodline, your womb.
A child tied to both the Chosen and the current vessel.
My grandchild will be the strongest Trepidation
this world has ever seen.
(Jaylen grunts)
- Jaylen.
(Jaylen groans) (Brit screams)
(flesh squelches) (Jaylen groans)
(body thuds) (Jaylen groans)
I'm supposed to stop you.
- You won't.
When I rip your eye out and make it my own,
your failure is imminent.
(thunder rumbles)
(foreboding music)
(Brittany groans)
- Brittany.
(Brittany groaning)
(Pierce grunts)
(Brittany groaning)
(Brittany panting)
- Get off me.
Please, get off.
(Brit grunts)
- The transfer begins when the vessel stops resisting.
(Brit groans)
- (groans) Brittany. (groans)
(Jaylen grunting)
(Jaylen groans and pants)
(knife clinks)
(both grunting)
(mask clatters)
(Jaylen panting)
(foreboding music)
(Milachi groaning)
- [Pierce] Let the Harbinger witness
the birth of the new age.
- Jaylen.
Malachi.
Somebody, please.
- [Pierce] Hush now, daughter.
This is destiny.
(Jaylen groans)
(knife clatters)
(Jaylen groaning)
- Brittany.
(Jaylen groaning)
(knife clinks)
(flesh squelches)
(Jaylen panting and grunting)
(flesh squelches) (man groans)
(flesh squelching) (Jaylen grunting)
(Jaylen panting)
- Do you see now, boy?
Your bloodline ends the curse, (thunder rumbles)
which is why I cannot let you live long enough to try.
Now stay still so I can carve that eye out of your skull.
(Malachi groaning)
- [Maureen] It uses it's cursed blade
to impale the curse into the Chosen.
(Milachi grunts)
(mask clatters)
(body thuds)
(suspenseful music)
- Jaylen, it's the knife, that's how you stop him!
(Jaylen panting)
You ain't touching her.
You ain't touching that baby.
You wanna end this curse?
You wanna get my eye?
Come take it.
- (scoffs) Fine.
(foreboding music)
(thunder rumbles)
(bones crackle)
(foreboding music) (choir vocalizing)
(flesh squelching) (Jaylen groaning)
Stay still my hand.
I need you for what comes next.
- (groans) Please. (grunts)
Please. - Shh.
Don't fight it.
Some mothers give life but you will birth death.
(thunder rumbles)
(Malachi groaning)
(foreboding music intensifies)
(Malachi screams)
(ominous music)
(woman groaning) (water splashing)
(ominous music)
(woman panting)
(woman groaning)
(woman panting)
- [The Trepidation] Join me. (speaks indistinctly)
End your suffering.
End your pain.
Become their fear. (speaks indistinctly)
(ominous music)
(woman screaming)
(suspenseful music)
Your blood will carry me through centuries.
- Stop it.
Stop it, Jaylen!
Seal the curse.
(thunder rumbles)
(Jaylen grunting)
- No.
No.
(thunder rumbles)
(Brittany groaning)
- Long live The Trepidation!
(knife clinks)
- [Jaylen] I'm scared, Brit.
- Me too.
But I choose you.
Every day I choose you.
Even now, especially now.
(dramatic music)
(dramatic music continues)
(ominous music)
(Jaylen panting)
- Nah.
Not her.
Not tonight.
- You're nothing but my puppet!
You're my hand because I made you the hand!
- Then watch me choose who I swing for.
(flesh squelches) (Pierce groans)
(Malachi groans)
(dramatic music)
(Brittany groans)
(flesh squelches) (Pierce groans)
(zombies groaning)
(flesh squelches)
(zombies groaning)
(footsteps tapping)
(flesh squelches)
(dramatic music)
(footsteps tapping)
(flesh squelching) (Jaylen grunting)
(Pierce groaning)
(Pierce panting)
(Jaylen panting)
- You can't stop.
- (sighs) You took so much from us.
My sister, my friends, my peace.
Every time I tried to move on, I heard you in the dark.
Every breath I took, you tried to take from me.
But you ain't taking my family, not her, not this child.
Not tonight.
- The child must.
- You don't get to decide my baby's future.
You don't get to curse another generation.
You don't get to own anymore.
My whole life, I always thought something was wrong with me.
But it was you, you cursed me.
So I'm ending this.
For me, for my child, for everyone.
(Pierce panting)
- No.
(Brittany panting)
- Goodbye, Father.
- No, no, no. (groans)
(Piece wheezing)
(flesh squelches) (Piece groans)
(dramatic music)
(Brittany groans and sobs)
(dramatic music)
(wind whooshing) (leaves rustling)
(dramatic music continues)
(sighs) We made it.
- (sighs) Yeah.
We really did.
But I thought when you win, it feel like peace.
I ain't at, I ain't at piece, I don't feel like a winner, I,
I'm just here.
- Yeah, me too.
Every time I close my eyes, I still see them.
I see all of them.
People I loved, people I failed.
People I couldn't save no matter
how loud they scream for help.
- [Jaylen] Yeah, this curse took years from me,
years from us.
Took pieces of me I ain't, I ain't ever get back.
Had me believing that, that I was the monster.
- Had me think the world would be better without me in it.
But I'm still here, bleeding, breathing, terrified,
but here.
And maybe that's the real victory.
- [Jaylen] Yeah, you're right, it's, it's not the fight,
it's not the last swing,
not the moment that evil finally went quiet.
It's this, standing in the wreckage
and still choosing to live anyway.
- Because I know one day now,
I never survived all this to quit on myself.
Or on the people still with me.
Not after everything we lost.
Not after everything we buried, I'm not the chosen anymore.
I'm not what that thing tried to turn me into.
I'm just Brittany.
- [Jaylen] I'm not, I'm not the hand anymore,
I'm just Jaylen, just a kid trying to figure out
how to breathe again, how to love again.
How to wake up tomorrow with,
without expecting the dark to be waiting.
- And maybe that's enough.
- Yeah.
(sighs) Surviving is enough.
(water sloshing)
- You know, I dreamed something last night.
But it wasn't bad, it was good.
It's us, Chris, Keith, and your daughter.
- The Lord is so, so good.
