"Shh, don't scream." Jamie reminded in Lisa's ear, and his back was soaked with sweat in just this moment.
He kept covering Lisa's mouth and half-dragged her away from the bed. Lisa was so frightened that she forgot about the legend of Mary Xiao, and wanting to scream was just a reflex. Now he nodded quickly after being reminded by Jamie.
After making sure she was awake, Jamie let go of the hand covering her.
Jamie and Lisa moved to the other side of the bed. He reached out and groped on the bedside table. The switch of the bedside lamp clicked and the dim light illuminated a small area of the room. The two of them stared at the puppet lying beside the bed in horror. Rain was still dripping from the puppet. The sheet it was lying on was already soaked by the rain. They didn't know how long it had been lying beside Lisa's bed. .
Lisa felt a tingling sensation in her scalp when she thought about this puppet staring at her while she was sleeping.
The two of them got out of bed slowly, breathing heavily, not daring to blink for fear of a sudden attack.
Lisa's voice already had a crying tone: "What should I do?"
What happened before them proved that there was indeed something wrong with this puppet. Jamie had obviously thrown it away and they had checked the doors and windows before going to bed, but it still appeared here. It didn't give up on killing her. If she just screamed, the scene in her dream would become reality.
Jamie's voice was relatively stable. While he was wary of the puppet, he helped Lisa up and said, "Let's go!" This house could no longer stay, and now they had no choice but to ask for help from their neighbors.
It was still raining heavily outside at this time, but they didn't even dare to get their coats. Lisa looked back while running, and saw the puppet lying there quietly, motionless. When the two of them exited the room and ran towards the stairs, the puppet suddenly twisted its neck with a "click" and stared directly at the direction where the two left, which was so weird that it made people shudder.
In the dark house, the two stumbled downstairs. The heavy curtains were tightly drawn, leaving only a crack for the light of the street lamp to squeeze in. The familiar home suddenly became frightening. The darkness tightened around Lisa's neck, making her throat tighten and the air she sucked in seemed to turn into a blade and pierce her lungs.
Relying on their familiarity with the terrain, the two stumbled to the gate. Jamie turned the safety switch, and Lisa kept looking back, but the darkness in front of her made her unable to see anything clearly.
It was obviously a rainy day in summer, when the air was the hottest, but the coolness all over her body made Lisa shiver. She stood behind her husband with frightened eyes, staring unblinkingly at the possible danger even though she couldn't see anything clearly. For just a few seconds, the beating of her heart seemed to hit her eardrums, giving her the illusion of tinnitus.
The door was suddenly opened, and the cold rain was blown in by the wind. When Lisa was pulled out by Jamie, another bolt of lightning flashed across the sky, and she saw the terrifying puppet sitting on the stairs watching them!
Lisa opened her eyes wide, covered her mouth and let out a silent scream of fear.
Jamie also saw it. He took his wife's hand and ran away into the heavy rain. The closest to their home was Winnie's house next door. At this time, even if Winnie is just a young girl, she feels safer than their family. When human beings encounter life-threatening danger, it is instinctive to seek help from their fellow humans, so they run to the next door.
The road was slippery, and Lisa fell down in Winnie's yard, with mud and water soaking half of her body.
Lisa got up immediately after falling, and the fear in her heart made her let out a whimper.
Winnie was awakened by a rapid knock on the door. She walked out of the bedroom and turned on the light in the living room. The whole room lit up in an instant. She walked to the door and looked out through peepholes. The sensor light outside the door was on, and the warm light shone on the embarrassed Eisen couple.
Winnie immediately opened the door and saw Lisa in her pajamas, covered in mud and water. She looked very embarrassed and looked like she had fallen in the garden.
"What's wrong?" Winnie asked.
Lisa gasped rapidly, and she didn't know whether it was tears or rain that kept flowing down her face: "Winnie! That puppet! It's that puppet!"
She couldn't explain it at this time, but she knew Winnie knew what she was referring to. She choked with sobs: "Please, can you let us in?"
Winnie understood and gave up her position: "Come in quickly."
The two entered the door and Winnie closed the door.
Winnie's house was very bright, and the bright lights temporarily dispelled their inner fears. Lisa swore that she would replace this bright lamp when this was over.
After the two told Winnie what had just happened, Winnie naturally didn't mind letting them stay at home for one night.
Even though she has experienced horror games, Winnie is not cold enough to drive people into a haunted house. Moreover, she and Lisa have been getting along very happily these days. They are friends after all, and it is impossible for them to ignore her. If Mary Xiao's soul wasn't here, she would have solved it quietly.
Seeing that both of them were wet, and Lisa was pregnant, Winnie led her back to the room and asked her to change out of the wet clothes stained with muddy water. Fortunately, Winnie's nightgown is looser and Lisa can wear it too. Jamie could only wipe it with a dry towel.
"I only have one bed at home. Lisa can sleep in the room with me." Winnie poured Lisa a glass of warm milk.
Lisa was calm now as she held the cup.
Jamie nodded gratefully: "Thank you, we will go to church early tomorrow morning." As ordinary people, the only person they can turn to is the church priest.
It was still early before dawn. They had just experienced a horrific supernatural event, and they were so nervous that they couldn't sleep at all. Jamie took a blanket and lay down on the sofa in the living room in a daze.
To prevent that thing from suddenly appearing in the house again, no one would notice it, so the lights in the living room and room were left on. Lisa forced herself to fall asleep with Winnie's comfort. Although her sleep was uneasy, luckily she didn't have that horrible nightmare again.
The next day, Winnie got up and walked around the house, and sure enough she found no trace of the puppet. Breakfast was still porridge cooked in advance, and the three of them headed to the church together after breakfast.
It was also Winnie's first time to visit the church in the small town. She originally wanted to wait outside for them to look around by herself, but Lisa was so nervous that she went in with the young couple.
Father Perez of the church received them. After listening to Mr. and Mrs. Essen tell what happened, including the horrific nursery rhymes from their birthplace, Father Perez said in embarrassment: "Now, if you want to exorcise demons, you must get the approval of the Holy See." It’s because of evil spirits that people with exorcism qualifications are sent to exorcise the demons.”
There was once a priest who caused the death of an exorcist during an exorcism, which caused a big fuss. Later, the Holy See strictly restricted priests from exorcising demons on their own without approval.
"What should we do?" Lisa did not expect this to be the case. They placed all their hopes on the priest.
"Don't worry." Father Perez smiled at them reassuringly, then took out a piece of paper and wrote a number on it and handed it to Jamie and said, "Perhaps you have heard of the Warrens? They are also recognized by the Holy See. There are exorcists who are very experienced in exorcism, you can contact them.”
Even though Perez is a priest, he has never experienced an exorcism in his career, or even experienced any supernatural events. Although he knew that there were supernatural phenomena, he was unable to help the Eisen family and could only recommend professionals to them.
Jamie took the note and looked at each other. Lisa thought of the talk show she had seen on TV. At that time, she also thought that the Warrens were just writers of novels, and those exorcism experiences were all fabricated. Story, I didn’t expect that they were exorcists recognized by the Holy See.
With Father Perez's recommendation, they felt a lot more at ease, and after saying thank you, the three of them walked out of the church.
As soon as they left the church, Jamie borrowed Winnie's cell phone to contact the Warrens. They came out last night in a hurry and didn't bring anything with them. They just took a taxi.
Winnie stood by and waited. Although the Warrens in the real world were probably liars, in the movie world they did have the real deal. They were in The Conjuring and Annabelle...and more! Winnie suddenly realized a question, are there Mr. and Mrs. Warren in "Dead Silence"?
Winnie took a deep breath and felt bad all over. She couldn't accept that there were other horror movies in the world besides "Dead Silence". Yesterday, she thought that as long as Mary Xiao was solved, the world would be normal, but now she suddenly realized that it was not that simple. If she remembered correctly, there were seven movies in the Conjuring series! Won’t all the horror movies that appeared in the previous life and are not available in this world become reality? !
This bad guess made Winnie's face darken, and she cursed the main god in her heart. She had spent 100,000 points, but she didn't expect that there would be pitfalls after leaving the infinite game!
"Winnie? What's wrong with you?" Lisa asked.
"It's okay." Winnie calmed down and shook her head with a smile: "I'm just a little worried. I originally thought I could ask a priest to take action."
Lisa thought that Winnie was worried that the Warrens could not solve Mary Shaw's curse. In fact, she was also a little worried, but she still said: "It doesn't matter. As long as it is proven that evil spirits are indeed causing trouble, you can apply to the Holy See for the intervention of a professional exorcist." ”
Winnie nodded.
This is just a world of horror movies, so it’s normal that you can’t find other horror movies.
Compared to the worse situation, Winnie could only console herself so much. Moreover, the United States is not a small country, so it is impossible for her to encounter all incidents, right?
She couldn't be that unlucky.
