(Sighs) Another grand old hotel, another slew of ghost stories. Clara, are you sure this is worth the drive? My back's killing me.
(Skeptical) Right. Drowning ghosts and fiery poltergeists. Let's see if we can even get our equipment to work in this place.
(Shaken) I… I didn't see anything. But I felt… something. A cold spot. Right in front of the car. Did you see anything you can describe?

(Screaming) She's gone! She vanished!

(Creaky voice) You shouldn't be here, son. This place is bad news, bad luck.
(Reminiscing) I used to live here, a long time ago. My family built this house.
(Sighs) Death. Always death. Seems like the land always wanted to reclaim it. Children disappearing, illness, accidents. It was never a happy place. Now the house sits empty. Be careful. This place is not always the most friendly.
