 “Is that a girl?”

EXT. BUILDING THE BOYS WALK TOWARDS THE BUILDING

The girl is sitting on the second step of the building. Her long dark hair is messed and she is staring down at her hands. A flickering glow surrounds her as she appears to be whispering something. As the boys approach, she becomes silent, scowling she looks up. The boys stop in their tracks. Terrified, Jake drops his flashlight. The two boys turn and run towards the darkness. Suddenly a bright light shines in their face, stopping them in their tracks. The girl blocks the way, holding the flashlight.

                                                                           Bree
 “You dropped something.”



The boys turn and begin to run when they hear a mans voice over a walkie talkie.

ENDING NARRATIVE AND SLIDES

 (V.O)

Bennett College eventually closed it’s doors in the fall of 1976. The dean of the college, Dr. Jane Shore, claimed that due to financial reasons the school couldn’t compete with other ivy league schools.

 In June of 1977, Bennett College was in the headlines again when NY state police filed charges against former professor, Nancy Augusta. Citing that while teaching history at the elaborate all girl school, Professor Augusta mentally and physically tortured several students leading to the eventual deaths of 38 girls in the 15 years she was employed at the school.

 In August of 1977, the story took another turn as Professor Augusta committed suicide while in her cell at the Millbrook NY police barracks. In the following years there have been 9 unexplained and sudden deaths in the same cell that her body was found.
