Hello?
What are you doing here alone?
I was waiting for you Mom.
Mommy?
Do you want to play with me?
I'm so sorry.
Shush, don't cry Mommy.
I'm not mad, but it is.
Who's Mad Helen?
It's here, we need to hide Mommy, it'll find us.
Who, who do we need to hide from?
It's too late.
No!
They look good.
Both of them.
Something seems off.
Doesn't it?
No.
This is all very natural.
Twins experience emotion to a greater degree than most.
Their own feelings as well as their mother's.
That's enough for today.
You can get up now.
I want to have an abortion.
Maternity is a stressful time for any mother.
With feelings of depression and anxiety.
Please, take some time and think about it.
John's gonna be a great dad.
They've been developing for 14 weeks, they have souls.
If you decide this is something you really want
then there's a great deal of paperwork
you're gonna have to complete.
Hey, it's okay.
I'll be there soon okay?
Barbara.
Barbara, I will talk to her, don't tell John okay?
I'm going to surprise him.
It's between us.
You're being selfish.
I don't know what to do.
Forget about the hospital.
Why?
It's a small town without secrets.
If John finds out you know what he'll do.
Do you want him to find out?
God no.
Rose I don't even know who my real parents are.
Do you know what it's like being born
basically in a dumpster and having people raise you
that aren't actually related to you?
This necklace is the only remnants
that I have of my real parents.
We'll figure it out, I promise.
Are you even listening to me?
What am I gonna tell John?
We'll tell him I have a doctor's appointment.
I keep having the nightmares again.
A mom and little girl?
Yeah and I don't know why.
Motherhood.
That's why.
Will you please help me fix this?
I will.
I promise.
Hey.
You miss me today?
I didn't get a call from you.
Oh, you know Rose, shopaholic, just buying everything.
Yeah no doubt about that.
I guess Stephen knew, hence why he asked me
to remind you about the meeting this afternoon.
Don't worry, I remembered, we're leaving now.
Love you.
Yes, according to some Lilith was both a myth
and a legend to our family.
She was the first woman created by God in heaven,
the wife of Adam.
I'm sorry to interrupt you Steve,
but wasn't the first woman created Eve,
and she was created out of the rib of Adam?
Actually according to Torah God created Adam
and Lilith from dust in the ground.
Exactly, they came from the soil
and they fought and they argued
and she lived with the devil.
It was intoxicating for her.
And Adam begged God to take her back and he did.
And after that he created Eve from Adam's rib.
Ensuring that she provided loyalty and trust.
God then punished Lilith
and sent her evil into the dark world forever.
Not only does she appear in the Old Testament,
but her name and story both appear
in the New Testament as well, the Bible.
Historians and theologists say that Cain
is the first mentioned son of her and Adam,
making her the mother of demons.
Actually the Eve of demons.
I'm sorry, but what does this have to do with us?
For centuries almost every culture
has spoke of Lilith's story in its beginning stages.
Adam hated her family,
but Adam and Eve's children began to live
with the devil and Lilith's children.
They were married, they had children known as crossbreeds.
These crossbreeds began to have children
and from there they gave birth to twins
and of the twins one of them symbolized goodness
and one of them symbolized malignancy.
Only one of them could be born alive.
The evil crossbreed was killed through abortion.
See, Lilith couldn't take care of her baby's souls.
Come on, sounds a bit crazy doesn't it?
I mean we are journalists.
We follow truth, seek evidence.
Says Mr. Atheist.
It's not about belief Amy.
I mean human beings are born
and then they grow up, reproduce and die.
And throughout this process they're creating stories
and then covering them up with their concept of God.
For instance your dog dies, you say fate took him.
You lose your job, it was fate.
You get cancer, fate.
People can't come up to solutions to these things
so they just create God and then deem him responsible.
Does that make any sense?
Yet these same people commit sin
and then say it's the devils game.
I mean you can't hide behind
an imaginary excuse for everything.
What I'm trying to say
is right and wrong are personal choices.
Can I continue?
Yeah.
I've been searching for this village for years
and as the story goes,
for centuries these crossbreeds lived there
and one night someone attacked this village
and massacred everybody.
And when the sun rose, only one group survived.
Although no one knows who those people were, no one.
So we're going to go investigate?
Yep.
Everything's set, Amy, John,
you guys are hitting the road in the morning.
Sounds good.
Good luck.
And bring me back the best damn story
that you can, you understand?
Steve I will do you one better
and I'll bring you back a crossbreed.
Alright, get out of here.
Are you okay?
Of course, why?
You just seem nervous nowadays.
I'm sorry, hold on.
Hello?
I already spoke to the guy.
Yes, right now?
He's gonna wait for us this evening.
Okay.
Okay see you soon, bye.
Honey, I'm sorry that was Rose, she's sick.
I need to go to the hospital.
I understand.
I'll see you later.
See ya.
What the hell is this place?
It's my everything.
Don't be afraid Amy, it'll be fine.
I won't harm you.
I'm a veterinarian and research scientist.
You're a scientist?
Is there a problem?
No, no there's no problem.
I'm sorry I just, I didn't realize
that veterinarians did abortions.
Will you shut the fuck up?
Fuck.
You see this?
See this here.
They did this to me and Lisa.
You wouldn't believe how they act
when they sense death approaching.
Rose I think maybe we should go.
Oh I'm sure, I'm sure John will be very happy
to be the father of... twins.
He knows what he's doing Amy, I promise.
Just relax.
It'll all be over soon.
I think we're good, we're good.
Oh no no.
No, no, it's okay, it's okay.
Amy, you better go back to sleep it's okay.
It's okay, it's okay.
It's okay just relax.
It's gonna be fine.
Just lay back.
That's good.
It's all gonna be over soon.
Breathe in.
Breathe, breathe deep.
Hey.
Amy's been acting weird for weeks.
She was in your hospital.
She was here today.
I need to know what's wrong with her.
- Let me check. - Thank you.
- You will be happy. - How so?
You are going to be a dad.
A dad, you're kidding me?
Congratulations they are twins.
Wait... didn't she tell you?
No.
She needs time,
you know, girls are a lot like that.
- Don't tell her yet. - Thanks Edward.
I owe you buddy.
I'm gonna be a dad!
Hey honey.
- Hey, how's it going? - Good.
So I'm packing now, did you need the brown pants and shirt?
No just my jeans and white cardigan
and there's chicken in the fridge.
Okay, I love...
John has this book too, how is it?
Haven't read it yet, but I'll let you know when I do.
Rose do you think God is forgiving?
Why wouldn't he be?
I don't know, I just hope that he forgives me.
God always forgives.
Hello?
Rose?
No, no it's okay, it's fine.
I love you Amy.
It's okay.
This will all be forgotten when we're done.
♪ Buy you a mocking bird ♪
Rose?
♪ Mocking bird don't sing ♪
Rose.
You're awake.
Rose I'm having the nightmares again
and they're getting worse.
You're gonna be okay,
a little bit of food will make you feel better.
It smells good.
Yes it does.
Good morning honey.
- Hi. - You ready?
- I'm outside. - Okay I'm coming.
Okay.
What's going on?
John's here.
- Hey, be careful okay? - I will.
- You okay? - Yeah I'm fine.
You look tired.
I was listening to Rose's stories all night.
How was your night?
Uneventful.
I did some more digging on Lilith and that creepy town.
Did you find anything interesting?
Nope, just a bunch of dumb stories.
By the way I called the hotel
and told them that we were doctors.
And married.
Well it seems nice, at least it's not terrifying.
Old fashioned tourists,
exactly how religions make their money.
Actually we're just beginning
to get used to this new situation.
I am so sorry.
Not important, we're open to new ideas.
No doubt.
I'm Paul, the priest in this town,
and this is my sister Maria.
- Welcome. - Hi, Amy.
And this is John.
Amy and John Tailor I presume, doctors?
News must travel fast here.
Oh my apologies, Maria's managing the town hotel
and there's not a soul in this town
she doesn't know everything about.
No worries.
This town is beautiful.
I mean to be honest we thought
it might be a little different.
Different as in terrible?
News does travel fast.
Anyhow Maria will provide you with directions to the town
and if there's anything you need please ask.
Unfortunately there's a sanitary issue
in the room you'd be staying in.
Paul's trying to fix it, but he's a far better priest
than he is a mechanic.
We'll provide you with a different place
to stay in the meantime.
I'm sure you'll be much happier since it's far from town.
You'll be able to make as much noise as you desire.
I really wish you had let us know about this before.
I really am sorry.
The issue was rather unexpected.
I'm sure that it's fine,
any place with a bed will be good.
The first white house on the left.
They'll be just fine.
Not bad.
Come on.
Now we're talking.
Halloween comes early and we get
the first tickets to the show.
What the hell is this?
It's just paint.
Yeah, but who would do such a thing?
Horror buffs, reality TV crew,
bunch of money grubbers if you ask me.
You know I bet that hotel room is spotless.
This is just a sick prank.
Very fucking funny.
They're all twins.
And they're all twins.
I'm gonna go take a look around.
There's gotta be something more interesting
around this place somewhere.
I'll come with you.
No babe, just get some rest, you look tired.
I'm fine.
It was a long drive, I know you're sleepy,
just take a nap.
Okay, bye.
Be safe.
Hello?
♪ Hush little baby don't say a word ♪
♪ Papa's gonna buy you a mocking bird ♪
Hello?
Who's there?
You are not gonna believe what I saw in the woods.
I think I'll take a shower.
Are you bleeding?
Yeah, four days a month.
Bleeding during pregnancy is common
especially during the first trimester
and usually no cause for alarm.
Who's there?
Hello?
I said who's there?
John, Amy?
- Hey John. - Hey.
I called out, but you didn't answer.
I made some dinner, why don't you two join us?
Why thank you.
Do you want to come in?
- Where's Amy? - She's in the shower.
We'll wait for you.
Hey honey, that was Maria, we're going to dinner.
This is delicious, what is this?
A town specialty for our very special guests.
Well, thank you so much for dinner,
this chicken is amazing.
So how are you liking the town so far?
Oh it's nice, especially the pagan symbols.
Perfect backstory for a horror narrative.
Pagan symbols?
Oh that must be the religious vandals.
Vandals?
Since stories of the town began circulating
tourists have been swarming in
and well after midnight some have occasionally indulged
in secret religious meetings.
A few satanic groups in particular
who twists the facts about Lilith and devil stories.
I took a walk in the woods today.
It's very nice.
May I see?
Of course.
Look at this.
Are those child bones?
Where did you find these?
Don't freak out, they say made in China right on them.
You must believe this is the first I've heard of this.
Must be the pranksters, you know how kids are.
There's always gonna be people
who want to exploit religions and beliefs Paul.
John listen, belief is a natural feeling
almost everyone has.
All of us must believe in something.
I beg to differ Paul, no offense.
Belief varies person to person.
Some people call it God,
some people call it Buddha,
some people call it Jehovah,
but the one uniting factor that we all share is belief.
And what are yours?
What about me?
Is the story about Lilith true?
The legend of Lilith
has been around this community forever.
These stories have been told a long time,
however...
...we believe in God.
If your town loves God so much
why are you guys trying to make money
on the Lilith and devil stories?
The devil believes in God too you know.
In the holy book it says that the devil hates God.
What holy book?
No book tells a story of hate, you're wrong.
The devil doesn't hate God.
He hates human beings.
But Lilith was human and the devil loved her.
Who said the devil loved Lilith?
Are you a crossbreed Paul?
Excuse me?
Are you a crossbreed?
What the two of you are saying
is preposterous, you know that.
Absolutely preposterous.
Can you hand that back please?
Thank you.
This is a waste of time.
There's nothing here.
Just a fake legend for this town to make money off of.
If they made the story up
why aren't they actually talking about it?
I don't know, mystery?
I mean Paul didn't deny the story,
but he didn't accept it either.
He just avoided all of my questions.
John, I don't think it's that simple.
I actually think there's a different story here.
Forget it, tomorrow I'm gonna ask some questions,
take some pictures and then we can get the fuck out of here
'cause I am done with this shit.
Maria, is that you?
Maria?
John.
John there's someone in this house.
What?
There's someone in the house.
Are you sure?
Wait here, wait here.
Fuck.
Amy, come here.
What the hell happened?
I have no idea.
There's no one even here.
Show yourself you motherfucker!
Stay here.
Don't leave me by myself.
Nothing.
Jesus Christ John.
Sorry.
What is that?
A recorder.
Tomorrow, I'm gonna have words with that priest.
What an asshole.
What does this have anything to do with the priest?
He's the one playing the god damn captain here.
All of this, this is his doing.
William Johnson,
seventh of October, 1987, it's after midnight.
The dark controls everything.
Lilith's babies are here.
I've tried to stop them, but I failed.
God knows I did what I could.
The girl was born into this night.
She is the key.
She will open the gates of hell.
She's coming, it's too late for us all.
Turn that shit off.
- Tomorrow. - What?
October seventh is tomorrow.
Don't you understand?
This is all the priest's game.
What if it's not some game John?
Not some twisted reality show?
Of course.
I should've figured it out before.
- They know who we are. - What?
They know we're journalists.
That's why they're messing with us.
To show us what they're capable of.
- What? - They want us to believe.
They want us to write their own sick horror story
so they can turn it over for a profit.
Religious tourism.
But what if it's true John?
Stop that bullshit, you sound crazy.
I sound crazy?
I believe, I believe in heaven, I believe in hell,
I believe in the devil and I believe in God
and there's something else going on here
and God can save us.
Whoa, calm down.
I'm going to bed.
Hungry?
Yes, very.
I guess that's what relaxing does to you.
I take it you're full?
No, not yet.
As expected when you're expecting.
What?
Nothing, I was just being silly.
Okay, well, we've got a lot to do so let's go.
Alrighty.
Hey, let's talk Paul, you and me.
You're a fucking asshole you know that?
I know exactly what you're up to.
Good morning Mr. Tailor.
Don't think for a second that I don't.
So you back off.
Excuse me, I don't know what you're talking about.
Of course you don't.
You know what just stay out of our way
and we won't have any problems okay?
And don't worry I'll write all about your beautiful town
and your stupid religious tourism.
John stop, be nice.
Hopefully what I just said to you is crystal clear.
I mean it.
You should do a better job
at controlling your husband's anger.
Paul, be truthful with me, what happened last night?
Were you in our apartment?
Of course I wasn't in your apartment last night Amy.
I've told you before there are vandals in this town.
Maybe they tried to vandalize it,
but they wouldn't dare enter.
Amy you look troubled.
Is God forgiving?
Of course God is forgiving.
Consider it this way,
if you're a mother and you had a son or a daughter
and they did something wrong
would you be willing to forgive them?
I would do whatever it takes.
Why do we confess our sins?
To be forgiven.
As human it's our nature
to carry a burden on our shoulders.
We appear strong when we are weak.
Let me take a weight off your shoulders.
The priest is such a prick.
You've got to be fucking kidding me, Lilith?
Aren't you happy to be here?
What are you doing here?
Yeah I just don't feel very well, personal issues.
Give it time John.
Who knows you may eventually start to like this town.
I doubt that will happen.
Maybe I can convince you.
Bless me father for I have sinned.
I had an abortion.
And I'm sorry, I know that I shouldn't have,
but I wasn't ready, I couldn't handle it.
We are born weak Amy.
All of us are in need of help.
Sin and desire are like the air we breathe.
Everyone needs to feel that life has a purpose
and each of us a destiny.
The devil is a cheater.
You can never guess how he may cheat you.
Sometimes you don't even know that you are serving him.
My God I'm sorry.
Will you please forgive me for all my sins?
I'm sorry.
Through our Father mercy of God
I absolve you of your sins in the name of the Father
and of the sun and of the holy spirit.
Thank you Paul I feel much better.
Take care.
The person you have called
cannot be reached at the moment, please try again...
Where has he gone this time?
The person you have called
cannot be reached at the moment, please try again.
Where has he gone now?
Devil baby.
Lilith's baby's are here.
I've tried to stop them, but I failed.
This is not as expected.
It's too late for us all.
God knows I did what I could.
The girl was born into this night.
She is the key, she will open the gates of hell.
She's coming, it's too late for us all.
William, the voice.
Time is running out, I must stop them, I must.
I'm a bit lost, can you help me?
Leave, you must leave this town?
Please I need your help.
William what happened that night?
What's the true story?
The devil was born that night.
It should not have happened.
Oh no.
No!
No.
No, no.
No.
No, no.
They think the crossbreed is coming.
This is not as expected.
What's the story behind the crossbreed?
In the world before it is as we know it
Lilith and Adam's family were at war.
Destruction, blood, pain.
They both wanted to dominate the world,
but then came to an agreement, they made a deal.
The war would end.
And no one would ever mention crossbreed again.
This agreement stayed in place for centuries.
Yeah, the very thought of a crossbreed faded.
People discovered joy.
They started to live like normal people,
but then the devil broke the agreement.
Only a crossbreed woman can birth twins,
it's a sign of God.
And only one of the babies will be strong enough to survive,
but nobody knows which one.
The devil cheated everyone.
Lilith possessed Adam's family and killed them all.
The devil brainwashed the women,
made them kill their babies.
He had them have abortions?
Abortion's a wicked thing.
The devil would have his revenge.
The devil's baby will be born tonight, here.
The end of civilization as we know it is upon us.
How, when is this supposed to happen?
When a crossbreed woman breeds
with a crossbreed man the devil is born.
Lilith and the devil's baby are the same blood.
A crossbreed will sacrifice herself tonight.
The ritual is upon us.
Now leave tonight before midnight.
Why?
Hey, where've you been?
I saw William in the forest.
Who's William?
There's an abandoned place
and I found out everything.
Amy please listen to yourself.
No you don't understand it's not just a story John.
Everything is real.
The devil's trying to create it's own family.
It'll kill Adam's crossbreeds and give life to its own.
The devil's going to be reborn into this world.
Not you too.
It's a story Amy, it's the town people's game.
William told me everything.
Did it ever occur to you
that William is part of this game, huh?
He could be working for the priest for all we know.
Listen to me.
What are you doing?
We both grew up in an orphanage Amy.
It was hard on both of us.
And I know I haven't been a very good boyfriend,
but I promise you I'm gonna be a good husband
and a good father.
I'm gonna take care of you and your baby.
John what baby?
I spoke to the doctor,
I know you're expecting and confused,
but I just want you to know it's gonna be okay
'cause I'm here with you now.
John don't make this more difficult than it needs to be.
I know you're in a very sensitive place right now
but you just gotta believe me.
It's gonna be fine.
- Just stop. - What?
Please.
John I had an abortion.
What?
I'm sorry I couldn't deal with the idea
of having babies at this point
and having twins, I couldn't deal with it.
What did you do?
- I'm sorry... - Don't touch me!
Just get away from me.
Shut up!
Come here bitch.
John!
No please.
Okay, okay.
I told her leave now.
Okay we'll leave right now.
We'll never come back, I promise.
- It's too late. - Don't.
The devil's had many bastard children.
I couldn't stop him, but tonight it's different.
Everyone will die tonight.
You?
You killed those people?
Why?
Why do you think?
I'm Adam's crossbreed, someone had to do the deed.
Why me?
Because you're to deliver the devil's baby.
I can feel it, it's his trick, his plan.
The devil wants to see his babies.
No!
Honey, honey, are you okay?
- I'm fine. - Are you alright?
- I'm fine. - Are you sure?
I'm fine.
- I'm fine. - Oh my god.
The devil was born that night.
It should not have happened.
- This is my sister Maria. - Welcome.
Hi, Amy.
- It's very nice, may I see? - Of course.
I'm the devil.
I'm the crossbreed.
We need the crossbreed Amy.
I aborted them.
You think we'd leave it to luck?
We took Adam's crossbreed and left the second one.
Take it away for us this evening.
See you soon, bye.
You're gonna take Adam's baby and leave the crossbreed.
You're lying.
The devil's inside you Amy.
Can you feel it now?
Who are you?
I'm a crossbreed.
Oh I'm so sorry.
You're important.
John is more important than you.
What are you talking about John?
That night you were not the only child born Amy.
A miracle happened.
Lilith's family gave birth to another... a boy.
This agreement stayed in place for centuries.
Yeah the very thought of a crossbreed faded.
You're sick, you're all sick.
It's time for the devil Amy.
You can stop this malignancy, you don't need to do this.
Malignancy?
We are not evil creatures Amy.
It's your God!
You've read its books.
God says that hell burns, but in Satan's bible
there's a different meaning.
A truth, heaven is the place that burns.
He knew the devil would fight back.
That's why your God punished the human race.
No!
The devil's inside you Amy.
Can you feel it now?
God no!
John!
Honey, no.
Oh my god.
Oh Amy come on.
Hey are you okay?
Yeah I'm fine.
And how's the baby?
The baby's fine.
The crossbreed is fine.
Yeah Rose?
We took Adam's baby.
The crossbreed's alive.
That is great news, thank you.
John has this book too, how is it?
I haven't read it yet, but I'll let you know when I do.
I got that book I was telling you about.
- Can I read it? - Of course.
What are these photographs?
These are just some useless photographs.
Would you mind getting me another coffee please?
- Of course. - Awesome, thanks babe.
Maria we're coming tomorrow, is everything set?
Everything is ready.
Good.
The devil wins again.
Stay away, if you hurt her I'll curse you once again.
Am I clear?
Who was in our house last night Paul?
It was William, he was trying to scare Amy.
He wanted her to leave town.
- Does he know anything? - Oh he tried to find out.
We need to get rid of him.
It's all your fault!
John no!
