Hey you
It's ok
I'm not gonna hurt you.
Easy, boy
That's it
Hey, boy
I'm not gonna hurt you.
It's ok, calm down.
Somebody!
Jesus Christ
Somebody help!
Hey! My horse!
I need to see the records for a patient named Anna Morgan.
Are you a relative?
Um, no
I'm sorry sir. We're a mental health facility.
Our records are private.
Oh, she's been dead 24 years. I don't think she'll mind.
I'm sorry. It's impossible.
Look
I've seen 'em before. I've been up there.
Nice try. The record-rooms are downstairs, guy.
You win
Jerk-off
You in here, Anna?
Morgan Horse Farm
Hello?
Excuse me Mr. Morgan
I was wondering if you'd have a moment to speak with me.
My name is Rachel Keller. I'm a writer with the Seattle P.I.
You wanna know about the horses.
I didn't mean to...it's just I wasn't able to find a number to reach you.
Every now and then a writer comes along
heard about what happened
What's left to write about though?
I don't know.
I was hoping you had just a few minutes
Well, work never ends around here really,
but I guess I got a few.
So, what is it you're writing, Miss?
Bout horses in general or that horses go strange?
I read you had to put so many down.
Loads put themselves down.
They drowned.
How did they get out?
Just broke through the fences, and ran to the shore.
So they went crazy?
It will seem so, yes.
Or maybe they just sensed things before they jumped.
So where are your horses now?
I don't breed anymore.
I guess you wouldn't.
Not after what happened.
That must have been hard.
On both of you.
You and your wife.
I'm sorry, Miss. What's your name again?
Rachel
Well, Rachel. You wanna tell me what's really on your mind?
Do you know what this is?
I think it's a message
from your wife.
Anna is on this tape. She's right there, in that room.
You can see the lighthouse, the horses
Where did you get that?
Shelter Mountain Inn
Is that the only one?
I made a copy.
I got a whole lot of work to do today.
Other acres out there.
A minute I think I'm done with one thing,
another thing needs fixing.
You don't wanna see this tape? You're not even curious?
Curious?
No. I don't think so.
Mr. Morgan
I can't help you.
Where is your daughter?
Maybe she could help... I don't have a daughter.
Excuse me?
What is it with reporters?
You take one person's tragedy, and force the world to experience it.
You spread it like sickness.
Mr. Morgan
Tell me, Miss! What is it you think you know?
Then leave it alone.

Aidan?
It's your mom!
Hi Mom.
Honey.
The house you drew for me,
where did you see it?
Did you see it in your head? Is that why you drew it?
In my head?
Aidan, why did you draw that house?
She told me to.
Who?
Who told you to?
The little girl.
She talks to you?
No
She shows me things.
Did she show you the horses?
She doesn't like it in the barn.
The horses keep her up at night.
So she still lives there?
No
She lives in a dark place now.
You're getting a little old to be ..... out there, Cal!
Your body has about outlived its warranty, you know.
........
Let's see you catch one better.
Yeah
Good afternoon, I'm Dr. Grasnik
I...think he was before me.
Darby? Darby is always here.
Aren't you, Darby?
He's my son's boy.
Come over on the ferry, did you?
Yes. Um,
Have you lived here long?
Born and raised. Only Doctor on the island.
Then you know the Morgans, and their daughter?
Do you know their daughter?
What's this about?
Look, I'm sorry. I don't know how to say this, but I'm seeing things in
my head, images, and so is my son.
My son, that's why I'm here.
And somehow, I don't know how, but
it's because of that girl.
Haven't heard anybody say that in a long time.
They wanted a child more than anything.
Poor Anna
They tried hard for years. But sometimes it's just not meant to be.
Then one winter they went away.
When they came back, it was with Samara.
'Adopted' they said. Never did say from where.
Said the mother had died of complications.
But they had their baby, they had their horses,
everything was fine.
Till Anna started coming to see me.
Said she was suffering visions.
seeing things
horrible things
like they've been burned inside her
And it only happened around Samara,
that the girl put them there.
Were you Samara's doctor, too?
Was there anything wrong with her?
You mean medically?
I mean whatever you mean.
When Darby there was born
we knew something wasn't right with him,
but we loved him anyway.
Takes work, you know
Some people have limits.
So what happened to her?
I referred them to Eola Psychiatric on the mainland.
I assume she's still there.
You don't know?
How can you not know?
We've been through
a lot of hard years out here.
mean winters
small hauls, no fish
And that was long before the horses.
See, when you live on an island, and you catch a cold,
it's everybody's cold.
No offense, ma'am, but what the hell does that mean?
It means, ever since that girl's been gone,
things have been better.
1978
Man, you really going back in time here.
Yeah, the lady at the reception said it should still be here.
Should be?
You say you were the patient's father, right?
Yep! Richard Morgan, that's me.
What is your secret?
Diet and exercise, man
No shit!
It's all it takes.
You know, I'm not an idiot.
You try and walk out of here with my file,
and I'll be your new, like white on your eyes.
You understand? Yeah, man...I just wanna watch it.
I'm responsible for every file-tape in here.
I have a system.
And I don't want anyone disarranging it.
I'd never
disarrange
Long as we understand each other.
Ok, now I'm mad!
Does it say who's the last person watched it?
Yeah
It was you.
Come on! Come on!
Who you need to call, is not responding, or is outside your area.
You piece of shit.
Come on, Rachel
Hello?

This is SM 0015, Samara Morgan
hour 14
good, very good
So what is it that's keeping you awake?
You must sleep some time?
You dream about something?
Samara?
Let's talk about the pictures?
How did you make them?
Samara?
How did you make these pictures?
I don't
make them.
I see them.
Then
they just
are.
Samara?
I need you to start telling me the truth, okay?
Can I see my mummy?
No, Samara. Not until we understand what's wrong with you.
I love my mummy.
Yes, you do.
But you don't want to hurt her anymore, now do you?
You don't want to hurt anyone?
But I do. And I'm sorry.
It won't stop.
Well, that's why you're here.
So that I can help you to make it stop.
He's going to meet me here.
Who?
Daddy
They just wanna help you.
Not daddy
Your daddy loves you.
Daddy loves the horses.
He want me to go away.
No, he doesn't.
But he doesn't know.
He doesn't know what?
Samara?
She's never gonna whisper in the videocamera again!
What did you do to her?!
She was your daughter!
You killed Samara, didn't you?! You killed her, and when your wife...
My wife was not supposed to have a child!
Mr. Morgan?!
What are you doing?
Whispers. You can hear them all the time, at night,
in your sleep,
even the damn horses
Mr. Morgan, come out of there!
Those twitches
Oh, Christ
These things she'll show you.
She's still showing them.
This will never stop.
Your coming here proves that.
Where is she? Please
I have to stop her, if I don't, my son will die!
Oh yes, he will.
She never sleeps.
Wait. No.
Rachel!
It's ok. It's ok.
You're ok
You ok?
Oh, Jesus
She doesn't like the barn.
The horses keep her up at night.
She doesn't like the barn.
What?
The horses keep her awake.
Samara
He kept her here.
Her mother was going crazy.
Morgan blamed the child.
So he kept her here.
Alone
Not alone
Rachel
There's something under here.
It looks like it's etched into the wood.
or burned
I've seen this tree before.
Yeah, it was on the tape.
No
I've been there.
Shelter Mountain
The sun came through the leaves, lit them up like it was on fire.
right at sunset
right when I watched the tape.
That was a week ago.
Back to where we started from.
Something led us here, the tree, the drawing, the wall
It doesn't matter,
we're too late.
You have to help him.
What are you talking about?
Aidan
It's up to you now, just use the time you have, and figure something out.
We're gonna figure this out together, right now!
It's too late, Noah...! Stop it, okay? There's a reason that we're here!
What?!
I don't know, okay? There's something in this room...I mean, it's in this phone,
in this television
Come on! Kill us now, why don't you!?
Noah
look
Jesus
How far down you think it goes?
I can't see anything.
No, we should drop something.
You think she's down there? Shhhhh!
RACHEL!!!
RACHEL?!
I'm here!
I'm alright!
I think
Can I gonna go find something to get you out?!
Hurry!
Noah?
NOAH!!!
NOOO!
Isn't it beautiful here, Samara?
so peaceful
I know things will get better.
All I ever wanted was you.
She was still alive.
It's okay now.
it's ok
Rachel!!!
We got a sunset!
The sun is set, time sunset, do you hear me?
It's time sunset!
Rachel?!
Rachel, are you there?!
I'm here.
They're gonna bury her next week.
It's over.
Are you okay?
She wanted that child more than anything in the world.
How could she have done that?
She just wanted to be heard.
Sometimes children
yell, or cry, or draw pictures.
I'm gonna go home.
I can't imagine what it's like down a well, all alone like that.
How long can you survive?
7 days
You could survive for 7 days.
Just call me sometime.
Unless you're in your movie.
Call me tomorrow.
and the day after that
Rachel?
What time is it?
It's either really late, or really early, depending on how you look at it.
Don't you have to be at work?
Not today
What happened to the girl?
Samara?
Is that her name? Mhmm.
Is she still in the dark place?
No
We set her free.
You helped her?
Yeah
Why did you do that?
What's wrong, honey?
You weren't supposed to help her.
It's okay now.
She's not gonna hurt you.
She's
Don't you understand, Rachel?
She never sleeps.
Pick up the phone, Noah.
Come on, pick up.
Come on, Noah! Pick up the goddamn phone!
Come on!
Go to your room! Now!
What do you want? What do you want!?
What do you want from me!?
Why not me?
What did I do they didn't?
She just wanted to be heard.
He want me to go away.
My wife was not supposed to have a child!
All I ever wanted was you.
Don't you understand, Rachel?
But he doesn't know.
She never sleeps.
You take one person's tragedy, and force the world to experience it.
You spread it like sickness.
You don't wanna hurt anyone?
But I do.
And I'm sorry.
It won't stop.
I made a copy.
Push it in.
Push
It's going to keep going, isn't it?
She'll never stop.
Don't worry, sweetie.
You're gonna be okay.
But what about the person we show it to?
What happens to them?
