                    THE BLOOD SLAUGHTERING DEAD DUDE
                      By Danny Hollingsworth ©2003


OUTLINE
Four teens decide to go out for a night of spooks and try and raise the 
dead. But hell did they choose the worse place to do it! On the burial 
ground where one of the town's most notorious serial killers was 
buried! 



EXT: Evening, then into INT: inside of cabin 
A boy is excitedly rushing down the road he's wearing casual scruffy 
clothes and is carrying a rucksack; he seems eager yet anxious to get 
to his destination. He finally turns up at an old run down cabin with a 
small damp grassy area around it. He jumps over the battered wooden 
fence and walks up to the outside window, knocks and shouts "Hey It's 
Me". He then proceeds around the side to the door where he goes to 
knock again, as he knocks the door opens slowly and in front of him is 
a pitch black room. "Guys???" the boy says in a confused manner. He 
slowly takes a few steps whilst starting to breathe heavy gets inside 
and then WHAM!!! The lights go on to reveal his friends in hysterics 
over the prank they had just pulled.

Matt: Shit you guys!! You scared the hell outta me!
James: Matt your such a pussy, we were only playin wiv ya.
Lucy: Did Ya bring the book?
Matt: Of course.
Sarah: Good. This is gonna be sooo cool.
Lucy: I know! It better be worth it cos it was so much hassle bein 
allowed to stay here the night. My mum was askin loadsa questions.
Matt: I just told my parents I was stayin at James's house.
James: Ye I told mine I was stayin at yours.
Sarah: I said I was stayin at Lucy's.
Lucy: man your parents are stupid!

(All start laughing.)

James: Hey dude can I take a look at the book.
Matt: Yeah sure!

Matt passes the book over to James, the two girl's crowd around. The 
book is entitled 'How to contact the dead' it has a very dark old cover 
and is very dusty, there is a book mark sticking out of the top of the 
book,  James delicately opens the book to the marked page. The page 
reads:

BRING THE DEAD TO LIFE

WARNING: USE ONLY IN EXTREME CIRCUMSTANCES

This spell is to be used to bring the dead back to life, although in 
certain circumstances this spell may be useful it is very dangerous and 
is very hard to direct and control. Please use wisely.

James: Does this stuff work?
Matt: I dunno
Lucy: It won't its just ancient bullshit.
James: Well were in the right place to find out!
Lucy: What do you mean?
James: Didn't you know, this place was an old graveyard. Apparently 
they buried that old serial killer here, you know, what his name is.
Lucy: Steven Cartwright?
James: Yea! The one that killed took teens into his house and 
slaughtered them one by one he supposedly kept the bodies to feed on.
Sarah: How did he die?
James: The police say he committed suicide but according to an old tale 
he was banished to hell. In his suicide note he vowed to come back and 
continue where he left off.
Sarah: Guys I don't think we should be doin this!
Matt: Shut up, James is only screwin wiv you.
Lucy: Ye Sarah just calm down.   
James: come on let's get this thing over and done with.

Matt, Lucy and Sarah walk to the middle of the room and sit down whilst 
James lights a candle and turns the lights off, he then joins the other 
3 and places the candle in the middle of them. He takes the book, opens 
the page and recites the words

Nothing happens….

They all look at each other confused and a bit let down.

Lucy: Lets try holding hands and sayin it together.
Matt: Might as well give it a try.

They all place their hands together and recite the words. Slowly and 
soft at first but soon it gets louder and louder.

Nothing appears to have happened.

EXT: the grass area outside the cabin
The soil blows away to reveal a coffin plate. It reads: STEVEN 
CARTWRIGHT. Then suddenly an old decrepit hand bursts through the soil. 

INT:cabin
Sarah: What a waste of time.
Matt: oh well we tried.
Lucy: I suppose it was a laugh.
James: Come on guys you didn't actually expect it to work.
Sarah: I better go, there's no point of wasting time here.
Lucy: oh please stay.
Sarah: nah I'm goin home.

Sarah gets up, goes through the door and slams it behind her. 

A loud banging noise is heard from outside.

Matt: shhhhhhhh what's that.
James: ill go check it out 

James gets up and slowly walks over to the door, slowly turns the knob 
as the banging continues and opens the door he looks out. The banging 
stops. He turns back and says.

James: There's nothing there.
Lucy: I hope Sarah is ok.
Matt: She's fine, it was probably just the wind will you guys stop 
worrying. And will someone turn on the lights I can barely see a thing.

James flicks the light switch on. Right in the center of the room is 
Sarah's body blood-soaked and torn to pieces. 

Lucy screams and the boys remain in shock.

James: oh my god what happened.
Matt: Let's get outa here.

James goes to open the door.

James: IT'S LOCKED!
Matt: ill try the windows
Sarah: (tearful) there's no point, the glass is too thick to break. 

INT: back of cabin

Blood- soaked hands pick up an axe and in the 1st person perspective 
goes over to the door and watches the 3 teens arguing. 

INT: cabin
James: we need to protect ourselves somehow!
Matt: there might be something in the back I will go check.
Lucy: Be Careful!
Matt: Don't worry, ill be right back.

Matt walks into the back room. He looks around for any thing of use. 
Behind him is the shadow of an axe. As he turns around the axe comes 
down on him. He falls to the ground and the axe keeps coming down 
slashing away at him.

Screams are heard from the other room.

Lucy: oh my god!
James: we gotta go help him

The screaming stops.

James slowly walks past the body of Sarah. The body grabs James and 
brings him to the ground. James rips out the body's tongue and the body 
dies……again.

Lucy shocked and scared backs off towards the door Matt went through. A 
hand reaches round the side of the door and holds Lucy on the door. 
Then another hand bursts through the door and her chest spraying blood 
everywhere. The hand retracts and Lucy falls to her knees. Then a tall 
dark figure appears from behind the door now holding a bloody axe. The 
figure cuts the head off of Lucy. The figure is masked and decrepit.

James gets up and runs to the door to get out he tries to get it open 
as the figure keeps getting nearer and nearer. The figure pulls his axe 
above his head and brings it down. He misses James but knocks the lock 
off. The door opens and James runs out with the figure following 
closely behind. The figure is slashing away at James just missing him 
barely each time. With his final attempt the figure misses James and 
hits a metal fence, the axe flies out of his hand onto the floor. James 
dives for the axe, turns around and chops off the figures arm. The 
figure screeches and slowly bleeds and burns at the same time. He then 
drops to the ground next to James. James breathes a sigh of relief, 
everything is calm there is nothing to fear. 

Suddenly the armless body jumps up and bites James.
