Script

This is our original script for our opening which may or may not be changed.

*As the distribution credits are shown, a conversation between two people can be heard. No background music just their voices. One is a man sounding worried and upset and the other is a doctor trying to assure him.*

Man/Dad: Doctor...I need to know what's wrong with her.

Doctor: Ma'am I'm really sorry but we have no idea-

Man/Dad: (sounding more frantic) I want to help her! I need to help her! She needs help! She's...she's. Her drawings. She has these drawings. Her-

Doctor: (trying to comfort the man) Don't worry about it sir, just rest.

*Opening starts with a girl waking up from her bed, panting heavily. Her bedroom wall is covered in distressing drawings of creatures of sorts. There are 3 knocks on the door causing her to jerk her head. As she looks towards the alarm clock she sees that it is very late, 2am. Warily she gets up and peeks through the window to see the driveway and no one is there. As she is up, she decides to go downstairs and get a glass of water. Whilst doing this, she hears the 3 knocks again. They're louder this time. In fright, she grabs a knife from the kitchen and prepares herself to peer through the peep hole. The 3 knocks sound again, louder and more violent. Just a split second after the 3rd knock, she looks through expecting something/someone terrifying to be there but is greeted by an empty driveway and a seemingly calm night. Feeling more frightened than ever, she runs upstairs and hides in her closet from where she phones her dad. He picks up after a few rings.*

Dad: (voice through the phone) What's the matter? Why are you calling at this ti-

Girl: (breathing heavily and speaking in a rushed manner but in a whisper) Dad, I need you to come home right now. I think someone's trying to get in. I don't know. Please just come, I-

*Suddenly her head turns towards the closet door and she hears faint scratching. Her dad can be heard yelling through the phone, asking her questions. Then faintly but clearly the 3 knocks sound on the closet door. The title "After Dark" appears.*
