The night was thick and inky, and a lamp hung alone from the ceiling, and in the dim and dim light, the worn floor and wallpaper seemed to have festered, giving a suffocating smell to the air.

Quiet, unusually quiet, so quiet that even the air froze.

Suddenly, the dim light flickered, the light flickered on and off, and something seemed to be in the shadows, creeping into the corner.

Squeak –

The door opened without warning without warning, and it was particularly harsh in this unusually quiet room.

Bang - bang - bang -

There was the sound of smashing things into the room through the open door.

The lights flickered faster, the light changed rapidly from bright to bright, and there seemed to be a faint shadow reflected on the wall.

Squeak –

When the door rang again, the door seemed to be rusted, and the sound was like a fingernail scraping against a rusty iron plate, making people feel unstoppable tooth soreness.

Bang Dang –

There was a loud bang, and the door slammed shut.

The door was closed tightly, as if it could never be opened again.

Tom – Tom –

There was no figure in the flickering lights, but there was a strange sound of footsteps.

The footsteps grew closer and closer in the flickering lights, more and more resemblance, and finally became a distinctly audible gurgling sound.

Gurgle - Gurgle -

The flickering lights suddenly went out, and the room went completely dark, like an abyss, and nothing could be seen again.

Crackle –

Electric sparks flashed on the ceiling, and the lights suddenly brightened.

A shadow, a humanoid shadow, appeared on the wall, I don't know if the shadow itself is like this, or the relationship between the broken wallpaper on the wall, the shadow looks strange, some places are recessed, some places are protruding, so that it is difficult to tell whether the body is a person or not!

Boom-boom-boom-

The sound sounded like grinding teeth in sleep.

This sound makes people's teeth sore, makes people chill, and makes people unconsciously get goosebumps.

It's like putting a person on a washboard and rubbing it back and forth until all the bones are crumpled to pieces.

The sound of rapid breathing suddenly sounded from the corner of the wall, and a little girl with short blond hair squatted in the corner of the wall, covering her mouth hard, as if she had been hiding here for a long time, and now she finally couldn't hold back the fear in her heart, and she was so frightened that she kept panting loudly......

The shadow turned silently in the light and turned into a corner facing the little girl.

"Ahh

A cry of fear finally rang out, breaking the silence in the room for good.

A camera exits from the room along the slide, and James Win, sitting behind the camera, exclaims, "Alright, this scene is over!"

But by inertia, the little girl's screams continued.

"Lily!" a female voice with a French accent said, "It's okay, Lily!"

Vanessa Paradis walked over to the little girl and pulled her up, "Lily, this shot is done. ”

"Oh. Lily Depp first nodded indifferently, and then laughed, "Mom, this filming is really fun." ”

Matthew also walked over and said with a smile, "You like games like this?"

Lily Depp pointed to the flickering light bulb and said, "Godfather, don't you think it's funny?"

Without waiting for Matthew to answer, Vanessa Paradis said, "What are you thinking about this scary scene?" Lily, what are you thinking?"

Lily Depp pouted, stopped talking, quietly moved her steps, moved slightly away from Vanessa Paradis, and stood beside Matthew.

"I'm thirsty. She muttered.

"Let's go. Matthew led her out of the room, "I'll take you to drink water." ”

The house used for the filming was his former residence in the northern suburbs of Burbank, so he was naturally very familiar with it, and he brought a glass of water to Lily Depp from the water dispenser in the living room and brought it to the little girl.

Lily Depp took a sip and said with a sweet smile, "Thank you, Godfather." She took another sip and asked, "Godfather, am I okay?"

"Very good. Matthew nodded approvingly.

Today is the day when the filming of "Latent" starts, Lily Depp is going to participate in the filming, and it just so happens that the crew of "Fast and Furious 5" has no scenes for him, so he came here to take a look.

Lily Depp raised her little face and asked, "Really?"

Matthew changed his tone very seriously, "Of course it's true. ”

To be honest, he didn't expect Lily Depp to perform so well.

"Matthew!" Vanessa Paradis's voice rang out, "You're Lily's godfather!"

Hearing these faintly disgruntled words, Matthew turned his head to see that Vanessa Paradis had already walked over, and he hurriedly said, "Yes, Lily is so good, I'm proud of her." ”

Vanessa Paradis came across from him, sighed, and asked, "What are you thinking with Depp?"

Matthew scratched his head a little, not understanding what this meant, and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Lily isn't even ten years old!" Vanessa Paradis looked around, saw that no one was paying attention, and said in a low voice, "Is it appropriate for you to hold her up for this kind of scene?"

Matthew was rarely asked, and he didn't feel anything before, recalling the scene that James Wing had just shot, and realizing that he and Depp had finally overlooked something.

"I'm sorry. Matthew thought of the problem, "I'm so sorry, my godfather, it's too easy to think things are. ”

Vanessa Paradis is just a little dissatisfied, but she is not the kind of unreasonable woman, but she is relatively very tolerant, otherwise she would not have been in a relationship with Johnny Depp for so long.

She shook her head, "Forget it, I'll be with Lily the whole time." ”

Matthew nodded slightly, "Vanessa, I promise, there won't be a next time." ”

Sure enough, he is not suitable for raising children, and he is really an unqualified godfather.

"What are you talking about?" Lily Depp looked at her godfather and then at her mother, scratching her head and said, "I don't understand!"

"It's fine. Vanessa Paradis smiled.

Matthew chatted with Lily Depp and Vanessa Paradis for a while, and when he saw James Winchong waving here, he hurriedly walked over.

"There are parts of the house that need to be properly repaired. James Wing asked, "It could ruin the original renovation." ”

Since the crew was allowed to shoot here, Matthew thought about these problems and said directly, "No problem, you just look at it, don't break the main frame of the house." ”

James Wing hurriedly said, "No, just change the decoration." ”

Matthew chatted with him a few words, looked at the footage he had just shot, and had to say that James Wing was indeed a good hand at creating a terrifying atmosphere.

Horror atmospheres often don't require exaggerated exclamations or scattered plasma, and it is often better to listen to thunder in silence.

The crew filmed in the room for half a morning, Matthew just watched from the sidelines, and did not interfere with James Win's work at all, and through a morning of shooting, he also found out that maybe Lily Depp is still worse than the McKenzie Foy who impressed him, but it is much better than when he auditioned.

What's more, Lily Depp is not at all afraid of the terrifying atmosphere created by James Win, but is full of interest.

Maybe Lily Depp can develop on the road to the queen of horror movies in the future like the "screaming queen" Jamie Lee Curtis?

This thought flashed through his mind, and Matthew knew very well that if he did, Vanessa Paradis, who loved her daughter, might try her best to find him.

Soon, the crew moved to shoot outside, because all the windows of the house were set up with black curtains on the outside, the inside of the house looked very dark, but the outside of the house was sunny.

But in this bright sunshine, Matthew saw a middle-aged man with a pale face and a gloomy expression.

"You're Mr. Horner?"

The middle-aged man took the initiative to find Matthew, "The owner of this house?"

Matthew glanced at him, especially his abnormally white face, nodded and said, "I'm Matthew Horner." ”

The middle-aged man looked rather serious, "I'm Brad Tesla, an exorcist. ”

"Oh......" Matthew said casually, "hello." ”

This one has a surname worth bragging about, a master exorcist?

Master Tesla said with a reminder and warning, "There was a homicide in this house of yours!"

Matthew nodded casually, "It was more than ten years ago." ”

"The deceased was a young woman. Master Tesla's pale face and gloomy expression are very masterly, "Because he was killed, the murderer did not get the punishment he deserved, and the victim's soul could not enter heaven, so he could only wander back and forth here." ”

He suddenly pointed to the ivy that had withered due to negligent management, "Look over there, the plant has been affected by the resentment of the victim, and life is withering. ”

Matthew didn't answer, clearly sensing that the god of flickering was paying attention to him.

Master Tesla added, "After years of accumulation, the victim is about to transform into a resentful spirit, and if it is not dealt with in time, it will affect the owner of the house!"

"You mean it will affect me?" asked Matthew.

"Yes, I'm pretty sure of that. Master Tesla put on a surprising pose, "Mr. Horner, you already have the curse aura of a resentful spirit on you, and if you delay it for a while, you will inevitably have an attack." ”

Matthew was speechless for an instant, it was nonsense to say this to a person like himself who grew up under the red flag.

How could a person who didn't even believe in the gods and Buddhas of the heavens believe in this.

Seeing Matthew's silence, Master Tesla thought that his words had an effect, he had mixed with Hollywood in Los Angeles for many years, and had dealt with many stars, the more uneducated the star, the more effective some words were.

"Mr. Horner, please pay attention!" Master Tesla said extremely seriously, "As an exorcist, I have the obligation to remind you, and I also have the obligation to help you get rid of the poison of the evil spirits!"

This is said to be righteous and awe-inspiring, and the public is selfless.

Matthew thought for a moment and asked, "Is it dangerous not to deal with it?"

When he was young, Master Tesla went to Port City to learn the scriptures, and said, "At least it will affect the future of his career, and at worst it will endanger his life!" He reminded again, "Mr. Horner, please let me help you! This is the duty of an exorcist." ”

Matthew looked at him, "Obligation?"
