DREW finds a mysterious book

DREW

Yooo what is this [laughing][tinkering around with the book]

CARRIE

(disgusted)

What kind of book is that? It looks disgusting. 

LYLA

(looking around suspiciously)

Why’d you guys move here, this house gives me the creeps 

CARRIE

I don’t know, mom picked the first house she could buy, she wanted to move as far away as possible from dad.

DREW and CARRIE look through the book, flipping over pages, and start insulting it. LYLA is disturbed by their insults and is concerned

DREW

Dad’s a dork - YOO guys check it out!

CARRIE

What’s up [showing interest at the book]

DREW goes to explore “something else”

LYLA and CARRIE hears a strange sound, they are now horrified with worry

DREW jumpscares them, jokingly attacking the camera

Camera glitches, the recording stops

Cut to:

Both LYLA and CARRIE, now furious, turn to DREW, scolding him angrily for scaring them.

LYLA

(surprised)

OH GOD!

CARRIE

(angry)

What the hell Drew! You almost gave me a Goddamn heart attack.

A mysterious furniture falls and they are all startled

Out of nowhere, the light turns off, nothing can be seen, Drew makes a weird sound.

Lights turns back on, DREW is now on the ground as he struggles in pain

The lights turn off again, nothing can be seen, DREW is now making weird sounds.

Light turns back on to see DREW standing in the middle of the room frozen like a statue.

OUT OF NOWHERE, Drew attacks CARRIE, the camera starts glitching

LYLA

(petrified)

DREW WHAT ARE YOU DOING!?! STOP!

Cut to:

DREW’s camera lights up, showing the full atmosphere. LYLA is screaming for help as she sees CARRIE’S dreadful body 

LYLA (CONT’D) 

(tears on her eyes, as if she is food for predator)

HELP!! PLEASE SOMEBODY!

LYLA spots a red light from DREW’s camera, thinking its her camera, she crawls towards it

In pain, she gets pulled behind by an anonymous figure, she screams in horror

DREW’s camera glitches and the scene ends with a title card

Title card: THE CURSE OF THE TOMBS

Reflection:

The script and screenplay took a long time to do, my team didn't enjoy it very much and it was the last task we got done. I think my group was just unmotivated to do it and we didn't really enjoy it.
