Return To Hill House

Disclaimers: I don't own the story or the characters, the plot line belongs to me, everything else belongs to Shirley Jackson and Jan De Bont.

Warnings: With this Chapter it's going to show more than just a simple attraction to each other than in the movie, but a what if they had the chance to get together and fall in love, before the attack the following night. As we see her change from her old personality and into a different one. Then she was in the movie, as just meeting the quintet is changing her now.

So some of her feelings are going to get reduced here, from her shy self and into a more self confident individual now as the week continues. As the week continues now. But from here we see their relationship growing as things change directions as we see what things would have been like. And if the duo survived past the last fifteen minutes of the movie

So for this chapter we see their relationship as it's going to be their first full day and night together, which is when the soulmate activates. And they act like they known each other for years, before things start shifting directions the next day. And before he tells them the truth and they find her in the greenhouse which is the next chapter, before they see the truth for themselves.

But his memories are going to show the portions leading into their return to the house, before it starts getting out of hand. And as there's going to be a few added scares in the middle of the story, as the paranormal attacks start up again, as they get frequent visitors from her family and get ready for the return trip.

Chapter 7: Heart To Heart Talks Part II

And by calling her name gently as I walked into the room. "Eleanor, are you alright?" I asked and she looked at me for a minute before she vented. "I know you think I did it, but I didn't." she said and I started to answer her at that. "Look people are always..." I started to say and she stopped me at that. "No I'm not making any of this stuff up and I know you all think I'm crazy and I'm starting to lose it or doing this for attention."

"And I'm not." she said and I knew whatever her anger at her sister was it just got vented into that outburst as I answered her. "For what it's worth, I believe you're a very sensitive woman and I believe that others have taken advantage of you in the past." I said and she sighed. "Whatever Luke said to you when he was with me he's right. They've always been like that, at this rate, I have nothing left to go back to."

"Not till I met you." she said and I moved closer to her as I answered her as I took her hand gently. "Too soon to say this that soon, but though you never heard my voice over the phone last week, and Mary brought the files you needed to the house. I knew meeting was going to change both our lives now at the moment as a result. But frankly I couldn't be happier now that I did, just two days in and already I feel like you were it."

"You were who I was waiting for all my life." I told her and she nodded as I told her truth. "Your mother hid a camera behind your figurines, I just saw everything, but I need to hear more right now. You can stay with me after that this, but our relationship is growing by the minute, I'm exactly right for you now, but I have to know. Was this the other reason you mentioned last night when he asked you about it, at the moment."

"But we have information your parents friends need to land them in jail in case, just in case we have further information needed and you get hurt here. But were there further problems aside from what you told us last night and this morning." I asked and she nodded as she answered me, as I took her hand as she sighed and told me the truth, before my remark hit her and she quickly said it in shock then at the news.

"Mom hid a camera, and you just saw my fight with them?" she repeated and I nodded to her gently. "Yes, and Luke just saw everything as though he was in the room during the argument, but he's furious, as are Theo and me. You got us covering your back, but if this is what you meant when you told Todd this we understand. But is there more to the fight, we didn't see honey?" I asked and she nodded to me as she moved close to me.

"Yes, the fight was over the apartment, it didn't matter whether or not I agreed with the apartment being sold or not. They were doing it either way once the probate closed on the will, but getting in touch with Mary. That was the game changer, at this rate I don't doubt they waited till I grabbed everything that mother left me. And came up here, before they pulled the deed and gave it to the manager so he could sign the deed to it."

"Altogether, they're a couple of gold and grave diggers, I never treated people like this and she's too much like his family than my mother and me. And to be perfectly honest, I've reached not wanting to go back or just getting a room-mate to live with and keeping them out of my life now." she said and I nodded as I went to the next question. "Theo hears that, she would agree to that immediately, as with us here, she's your best friend."

"But now that we know why, I think it would be she buys out the contract on the apartment and becomes your room mate, or she has you move in with her. But either way, we just solved that problem, by you meeting us now at the moment. Regarding that right now, but we understand at the moment in that, honey. There's more to it than what you told us last night right?" I asked and she nodded sighing as she explained it to me.

"Yes, and that's the part you're not going to like either, but I just figured it out now, that wasn't you banging on the walls last night. You edged the truth, because you didn't want to say it in front of them, but you did hear what the amount of noise was last night. And while you're checking out the house yourself, the next attack after Mary. And the wine bottle hits, as whatever happened last night has you unable to move your wrist much."

"Because I saw the bruises across your wrist this morning, what happened last night, if you covered your wrist this morning and tonight like this?" she asked and I sighed as I explained that to her, not surprised she caught that right now, but they didn't. "I was exploring the house and ran into Luke last night, before the noise from the rotating room. But it got my attention, I lost my balance and hit my arm against the spire as a result."

"But the noise you heard I was downstairs and then retraced my way back up there, before the noise got my attention and I went to investigate." I said and she nodded. "Uh huh, yeah that's what I thought, the fireplace you're with Theo. While the painting this afternoon, you were standing next to me, and if you had come to do that. I'd see or hear you up there, so that's not you, not you, but it's out of arm's reach for any of us."

"I'm alone for barely more then five minutes like I said, so if it's not us and it's not you. Then who is it, simple question, but it's a simple thing now, you never would hurt us, especially not me, I'm your future wife. Of us, I know you better then you know yourself now." she said and I pressed my forehead to hers then. "Like I know you better then you know yourself, especially when on automatic pilot at the moment honey, as such."

"You know how I see you, but we're in a haunted house, best to put your training to use." I told her and she nodded to me. "I'm everything to you, I don't care about the truth regarding this, if I was completely active I'd choose the very same time. And place for this, but our assailent just tried to send a sick message to us and frankly. That's not enough to scare me out of my own house right now." she said and I nodded softly to her.

"Like I said over the phone and last night, first the intrusions are playful then switch to cruel practical jokes, start getting dangerous and then turn homicidal. So far we had two of the four year, he's trying to scare us by injuries and cruel practical jokes right now. Whoever it might be, but the kids now, they're getting playful so I can look up their names and start on this mystery in the 'sounds of children' remark of the rumors."

"I was waiting for us to be alone, before I told you this, Dave, but remember when I said that they pulled another prank by leaving the window open this morning?" she asked and I nodded. "Well one of the girls managed to morph into the pillow and told me to look up their names last night. The story just took another turn, but if I can learn who they are thet helps, if they're possessing things here, that's one thing, but the investigation."

"It just started here, but that explains the noises, the wine bottle, the fireplace, the painting, the pot and Mary getting hurt, Craine, if he's haunting the house. Is trying to scare me out of here so I don't put him back in the doors for whatever reason." she said and I nodded. "I believe you honey, aside from the last piece, the rest of it was out of arm's reach, but that's going too far in my eyes." I said firmly at that news then gently.

"Tell me about it, whoever it is that's doing that, if Craine himself is haunting the house, he's trying to scare me out of here by cruel practical jokes. But not working and aside from Mary, we had only one injury here and repeated parlor tricks the last 24 hours. But if mom is filming this entire trip, then that maybe why she was up at the hospital. To get enough evidence to prove this is a possible murder/suicide rap, so with that in mind."

"You got that tape deck?" she asked and I nodded as I grabbed the camera and brought it back into the room and set it up so she could watch it herself. Turning it on, I saw the three of us gathering around the camera, to watch this as we were listening to them argue over it. "We didn't bring the equipment for a parapsychology study, though if mom ransacked the office when she did this in the way you did." she said and I nodded to that.

"The camera must be hidden in the bookcase right now because we got a clear view of the entire fight this way." Luke said in realization and a message wrote itself out. "We did, and Luke here's the rest of it, but this was so you can see this from her point of view. Before and after the fight, David, but that's in added tapes, so this one marks the fight, the next is when she found my necklace now."

"The phone call, and Andy simulated your voice to get her out of town, as she saw what the prize really was now. If they did this and finally here, finding my notes on haunted housing, and sleep deprivation. You have everything you need to have him sued right now, if they try kill to her by using my car to do it." Theo read out to us and we nodded as I smiled dangerously at that remark in relief.

"I was right, she was at the hospital, just to gather equipment to create enough evidence in case the Websters try to frame me for attempted suicide. And you for attempted murder if the scares from here go in the direction I said last night. But anyone doesn't get enough rest the victim is going to have their system crash if they're up all night." she said and I nodded as I thought it over in why this was a different version to what I saw.

"What the hell, this is not the one I viewed earlier?" I said and she covered her eyes as she explained that to me. "Like the Neverending Story, you're watching me in this argument with her and Lou, and not realizing it. That mom had a secondary camera watching you from the bookshelf right now. You view this in the library, if we were starting your experimental model?" she asked and I nodded to her as I watched it.

"Terrific, the kids had a secondary camera pointed directly at us from the piano, and the piano is next to the fireplace, as we were watching this." I said in response, as a box appeared on the table and I opened it to find ten tapes. Each one carrying titles, as I saw one with 'Office conversation' another with the title of 'Conversation with Malcolm' 'First Meetings' 'Dinner conversation' 'In the library' 'The Legend of Hugh Craine'.

And 9 others with the labels of 'Conversation with Luke' 'The Trio's conversation' 'First Night Analysis' 'Exploring the House' 'Attack in The Bedroom' 'Kitchen Meeting' 'Gentle Hauntings' 'Conversations and speculations' 'Attack from the Fireplace'. And finally, 'Discovery Of The Painting And Fights' and we nodded. "That's seventeen chapters and we reached the latest, as mom is taping this." she said and I nodded in agreement.

"Yep Todd's remark just hit the table, we ever make a movie out of this trip, we can use this, as we take out the added conversations for the movie. And put them into the novelization I'm creating after completing my research. But you know what I'm doing and you don't care about it at the moment. You love this stuff as much as I do, honey, but we ever come back here, you're next in command." I said and she nodded smiling to that.

Putting it on pause, she looked at me then. "Alright never mind the evasiveness, our soulmate bonds act as though we've been together for two months to six. But you're a wolf at heart and I'm your imprint, so to you, it's come near me at all. And you're going to beat the crap out of the person that does it right now." she said and I smiled and nodded as I hugged her then and she rested her head against my shoulder at that.

"Now I'm telling you we can't afford to keep you here any longer, you already owe two months worth of back rent." I heard from Jane and I looked at him. "Didn't you say that you paid 4 months ahead, before you died, Rebecca?" Theo asked and a message wrote itself out. "Yes Theo, I did, but that's why she didn't have to pay, it was already paid in advance, all of it." She read out and I nodded to that.

"It's mine, and you're not taking it away." I heard from my soulmate and I heard her sister's next remark. "Read the will Neill, it states in plain language, 'The executor shall have the right to dispose of any and all personal property as he shall see fit.'." she said and I saw Eleanor grabbing the dishes off the table. "He is not even real family." she said and her sister snapped at her at that remark then.

"Yeah well maybe not, but clearly, Mother thought Lou would much better equipped to deal with these unpleasant details then you." she said and that did it. "Unpleasant details?, What I have been dealing with for the past 11 years? I cooked, I cleaned, I mopped up her urine, and you call that an unpleasant detail." she screamed at her, hearing that he put it on pause and we nodded firmly.

As she put it on pause at the exact same time at that. "She crossed a line by saying that, unpleasent details is a seriously insensitive way here of having to keep it together. In regarding mom's declining health at the moment, but she doesn't understand. And while she left to have a party, I'm left to deal with's mom's health and I know she's dying at the moment." she said and I nodded to the news as I heard my voice answer that.

"Two years sick, she's been holding it in so long, that's what caused that right now, don't worry baby, it's going to be alright. You can stay with me once we end the trip up here now, but he's never coming near you again." I said, sighing to that remark as he turned it back on as we heard two remarks at once. "Too late, I'm taking you up on that, we're engaged right now." she said and I hid a smile to that.

"Hey your sister didn't write the will." I heard a male voice say, followed by an added add on from her sister then at that. "That's Lou there, he may look harmless, but don't trust his behavior honey." she told me and I nodded to her. "You pal, ever come near her and I'm going to kill you, you just screwed yourselves over. As that will is a fake you bonehead, her mother's a psychiatrist." I said to him, smirking at him then sternly.

"We all know what you done, but we're trying to help." she said and I echoed the remark my love said as I said it with her. "Do not help me." I said forcefully to that remark in unison with my fiancee. "Mom, don't worry, I'll take care of this." I told Rebecca and and then I saw a little 8 year old boy knock a figurine off the tv set. Before her sister grabbed it and put it back as she said sternly, but gently to him at that.

"Oh Richie, just go sit on the couch." she told him and I heard the man say it then. "Oh lovely, wait till Beth and Rick see this, once they realize you're their god daughter, the Websters are screwed and especially once they see this right now." I said and she nodded firmly. "To them they thought they were helping me, but all they really were doing was leaving me homeless right now, as I have no where to go right now."

"Or I didn't, until you came into my life." she said and I nodded to her. "Anyway once probate closes, we can put this apartment on the market, and we all might be able to make a few bucks." he said and Luke nodded as he grabbed our notes from the night before as he circled the original remark. "Take advantage of the admission and you just blew every dime you had." Theo said in response to that remark.

As her sister finished that. "Also we know how much you love mom's car so we're giving it to you." she said and I looked at her in shock as Theo said it for all of us. "You're taking her house and giving her a 20 year old car." she said in disgust as I heard my wife repeat that in shocked disgust. "You're taking my home and giving me a 20 year old car." She said in shocked disbelief and I crossed my arms at that remark.

As I heard a flippant tone of dismissal in his voice. "Oh absolutely, we'll deduct the value from the proceeds of the apartment." he said and I heard her say it forcefully as I repeated that. "Who are you, do you understand that she has no where to go." I echoed as her voice joined with mine. "Who are you, do you understand that I have no where to go." she said and I watched her sister rest her hand on his shoulder.

"We've been talking, Lou and I are very busy, and we could use someone to help us wity the cleaning and the cooking, looking after Richie." she said nodding her head to him as I saw him banging on the wall with a four pronged cane. "Eleanor help me, I gotta pee." he sneered and Luke said it with a growl. "That did it finally for me, there was no way in hell I'm moving in with them, not with that little brat."

"Searching for a nice apartment, meant it would take time or 2) that I had someone to let me stay with them, until I had the money to buy out the deed on my apartment." she told me and I nodded as I heard Luke's growl to the kid. "Why you little brat, you better stay clear of me or so help me, you're getting the spanking of a lifetime. I see why she hates her nephew this much." he said and I nodded in agreement.

And to that, I couldn't believe what her sister was like with her family and I nodded as the kid's father snapped at him. "Richie not now!" he said as I saw her come to a decision. "Get out of my home." she said and he stood up. "Well suit yourself, we'll let the courts handle it." he said and and I looked at the pink ball. "Mom, you said your friend was a judge?" I asked her and another message wrote out at that.

"Yeah it's Peter Walters, Judge Walters, he's the high judge in Concord, the Berkshires, he hears this and he can over rule this, but he activates the probate on the second will. And he's screwed David, but judge over rules lawyer any day of the week, I've also got a friend who's a prosecutor." Theo read out and we nodded to the news we turned back to the tape as she repeated it in a warning tone.

"Get out of my home." she repeated and her sister quickly pulled her son of to her father, as I heard the final remark. "Come live with us Nell, you have no idea how hard it is out there." she said and Eleanor said it in finality. "No Jane, you have no idea how hard it was in here, watching your mother fade away after losing one parent and you're an orphan, so no." she said coldly and her sister left at that.

"If Andy wanted us to hate him, or her, he just got his wish, right now, because wait till Todd and Mary see this tape deck right now." Theo said as Luke checked the camera and pulled out a hollowed full size videotape as we saw it and then looked at the miniature ones and I nodded. "Nice touch mom, you got the evidence needed to call it off, but something happens this week, and we can show these tapes to your friends."

"I was talking to Rick and Beth this morning, but they need the final confirmation now, Rick is getting Benson up here before they call it and head home." she said and a gentle mesage wrote itself out at that to her. "I know baby, and your father made contact with the duo just after Dave and the duo found the camera and the tape deck." she read out and I nodded as she looked at me smiling as she answered her then.

"You want me to show this to Uncle Jack and the Dudleys tonight, before they leave just to confirm things. If you left the insurance money to pay damages and medical bills for Dave and me?" she asked and I heard a gentle but firm tone in the next one. "Yeah sweetheart I do, but just a reminder, they lose it out of fear and either you. Or your friends, or both of you, get hurt and volunteer status gets cancelled."

"And it's ten times what the volunteer status is to cancel a lawsuit, as you told them repeatedly what this was. And they're spooked to the point of going into self destruction here, but 5% of it is to tell your life story to the entire planet. That you're the grand daughter of the original owner of Hill House. Just choose your look alikes and alter the last 10 minutes." she read out and we nodded to that.

"We're turning this into a cross between, if this keeps up and he goes from cruel practical jokes and directly to homicidal next. That we're showing the results of what the car accident in the fact of the damn gate could result in. And the reason for how ended up working from home ever since, but whatever this is, it's going in the line you taught me here." she said and I nodded to that remark as we exchanged looks at her remark then.

Thinking it over as I thought over that and then it hit me. "Alternate ending in the movie that gets added to the book, and it's in memory of your mother. Caroline, Andy and his friends, so she's helping us create the movie by adding on to the storyline. Rebecca gave her life to free the last group and we got the next, but why would that be needed. Now, is the question here, and with it, why is your grandmother sending us messages now."

"The movie gets the alternate ending as you survived what is coming and with you, Luke, if this keeps up, but who is Craine for real. Why are the kids always hanging around us, what are the secrets buried in the walls of this house and most importantly. What's the meaning of that message on the painting if this house belongs to Fred exactly. And as this continues now, but I got the money that can take care of the surgery if you get hit."

"And damages, medical bills, I can get you a new car as that one was destroyed here and so on." I said and she nodded as I heard a gentle tune coming from somewhere and we exchanged looks, before she smiled. "That's what I was singing to myself, as I was coming up here, just adding it to when I found my necklace that definitely helps." she said and looked down to see Andy and Sarah sitting there in front of us at that softly.

And then smiled as she looked at Sarah gently. "I get the idea you two and Sarah, are you a pianist, or a musician by any chance." she said and she jumped once to answer her. "You got the tune right, that's what I was humming to myself on my way up here yesterday, but I got to know, why choose the second the six of us were together. To reveal yourselves exactly to us?" she asked and a gentle mesage wrote itself out.

"The guys, Jenny, Kathy, Sarah and I needed you to understand now in why we came out, but 4 boys, 3 girls, you're junior psychiatrist, Dave is a full. And Father is like the dream stalker on the movie, but if you were 10 years younger. And you just got out of training, who do you have baby?" I read out as a green star appeared next to the message and I covered my eyes at that as I read it out firmly.

"She's just like Langenkamp when she played the girl, and Benson, and the Dudleys, Walters?" I asked and the tone went firm as he explained it then. "Jack is the one cop, David, the Dudleys are like her parents once they get the truth. But if you altered the storyline slightly, Louis is the dead beat dad. That every psychiatrist that treated her, before your double came into the picture, claimed it to be."

"She did it because of her father, long story short here, Sarah, Robby Billy and I are taking it slow for the next few days, regarding your search. But once your ability goes to full power you have to really take it slow, Eleanor. Just trust me, the deeper you dig and the more traumatizing it's going to get. So just take it slow and easy now, okay baby." he said and she nodded as she looked at me.

"Issues in my family are difficult to contend with at times, but the secrets are buried in the walls now at the moment. But if Uncle Jack is anything like Saxon, and I'm just repeating Depp's remark here. But we have reason to believe there is something really strange going on inside this house, or town." she said and I heard a bemused tone come into an adult voice as Rob rolled in at that remark as he answered her at that statement.

"I got no argument with that baby, but again you need to take it slow, but you remember what I was like when you were Thompson's age, on the movie. And I was trying to figure out why my friends on the force found you shacking up. And with three other teenagers in the middle of the night and especially. If one of them was a minor delinquent like the kid who was framed for murder here."

"You're stil reactivating and this leads in the direction it's going in, your friends keep this up and someone's going to get hurt. So take it slow until you can see our souls, and Jack is going to say the same thing here at the moment. Rick and Beth were relieved to see me and your mother, but time changes things. And they're starting to remember now." he said and we nodded as she said it at that.

"I take it if you were around right now, you'd kill Lou for touching me at all like that when, like mom, you were connected to Rick, through Uncle Jared right?" she asked and the tone firmed up as he answered her. "You're right, I would, but as the family executor, once I get Peter involved and he's screwed, but your uncle is a judge. And judge over rules lawyer any day of the week, as such right now."

"Just keep this as your little secret, until the duration us up right now guys, you two and Theodora, Luke, Todd and Mary. Even Malcolm knows that your mother and I are hanging around and the sextet got used to us being like this. They can't see us, but they can still talk to us like this, though you can see us. As we reveal we heard the entire conversation to the Websters as a result."

"And that resulted in cutting them out of the will as a result, the amount in this house is more then millions, bilions or even trillions you two. You're standing on an incalcuble amount in here in gold, silver, jewels and so on. But the prize is the house, the family fortune and you knew my family. Honey, I was descended from a british lord almost as rich as Craine himself back then, as a result."

"Though we kept to mid middle class, your mother and I bought the apartment and paid six months ahead on the rent which explains the books. And the other things we got for you, but of you, you turned into what we wanted at the time. But you were the one we doted upon and quite honestly, we couldn't have picked a better match for you, baby." he said and I hid a smile at his remark then.

"As, with the fact the Dudleys called the chief up here tonight before they went home that helps right now. As they know, that I'm their god daughter as a result, but this is enough to over rule things, I got the notes saying it's a fake." she said and I nodded to that. "I take this to Malcolm and he sees this in our security camera room, Malcolm was her mother's boss." I said and they nodded to the news gently at that.

"Yes that's what the added tape was for, so you can show these to Malcolm, but camera and your back up camera. Well they were meant so you can show these to my friends and I understand why you would say that son. Luke, but to repeat that remark Jane gave in reverse now, but clearly, I thought you, David. But you would be much better equipped to deal with these unpleasant details."

"And these truths, then Louis would be, you understand my daughter and to me he's not even real family, however you're real family to me. And my favorite son in law, but if I was still alive what would you do, do if I got diagnosed?" she asked and I smiled. "I'd offer to let you live with us and we'd take care of you until the end mom." I echoed and another one wrote out, the tone doting and proud as she said it.

"And that is why you're my favorite son David, kind, courageous, caring, true, you're everything I want for her. You understand the admissions in the will, but they don't and they're chewing up her side of the Inheritence faster than they can blink right now. Just wait till the results come back from my banker, and Jack and my lawyer are telling you the legal details, before this goes to court."

"The idiot boy is a chronic drunk and is as sadistic as you can get in the courtroom and its going to be my pleasure to bring him down. And off the mountain and high horse once you and my daughter reveal the truth of the first will to him and Jane." I read out and she smiled at that information. "So you're the legal executor, oh I can't wait to see the look on his face when you tell him."

"That the shift in rights and parental approved marital heir happens to be you." he said smiling and she grinned sternly. "I'm the rightful heir and you're the family executor of the assets, the paper she has is the fake. I got the real one and the added post notes that say it is a fake, well this is simple enough. I can take it to the Dudleys as they pull Benson and Walters into it now." she said and I nodded smiling to that remark.

"Well if I'm the chosen marital heir, I don't have to worry now, because our relationship is already forming here and if this is the start of our lives together, I'm being who she needs me to be now. She said the necklace belonged to her mother, but it looks like it's 130 years old." I said and he nodded as he answered me gently at that as he checked the first three tapes then and grabbed the next one.

"Alright lets check the rest of this." Theo said to me and I nodded as, not noticing there was a secondary camera hidden in the picture frame, or the hole in there, I quickly realized it. "I didn't notice that mom, or dad, had drilled a hole into the wall, but that's where the frigerator, or rather the freezer was standing. Against that wall with the fridge, against the other next to the one leading outside." she said as I heard my voice say it.

"Someone drilled and cut a hole into the wall of the kichen wall there, it's got a perfect angle to look into Rebecca's bedroom." I said and they nodded as I watched her walk into her mother's room then as I saw the medical equipment around the room now. "My bedroom was across the hall from her's so whenever she needed me for something she had her cane." she told me and I nodded as she watched Luke gently.

"That must be the cane she mentioned, brass handle, and there's a walker next to it." Luke said and I nodded in agreement to his thoughts as I saw the grief come into her eyes, before I saw the necklace. And she picked it up, before seeing the inscription on the wall and nodded. "That was mom's way of thinking, we had a place for everything and everything had it's place in our apartment, but she left me her necklace."

"Before she passed, as she got me ready to start my future, but I meant it, I was in between jobs at the time. And my next one was the latest phone call here, as I got started on my research finally now." she said and I nodded to her gently at the news then. "No joke, if this was why she vented that to us last night, she's still in mourning right now at the moment here, she needs us now at the moment."

"Alright last tape now." Theo said and I activated it as I saw her put the necklace on then, before the phone went off. And she picked it up. "Hello." she said, before her eyes narrowed in shock. "Yeah this is Eleanor..., where?" she asked and grabbed up the paper and opened it as I saw my ad and I nodded in shock. "I never called you honey, someone impersonated my voice to get you to check the paper that day."

"Though if they did, it was so you could get to work on your own experiment, as you joined forces with me." I told her and she nodded. "Then again, I think this was to get me out of town for a couple weeks as they took advantage of the admissions. When in the will, as it gets all over the state that current Heiress, Rebecca March-Craine Vance. Will was recently probated and Hill House legends get revealed to the new heiress."

"As the truths in the walls get revealed to the heiress, her fiancé Dr. David James Marrow and their friends." she said as we heard it. "That wasn't me that called her that day, the first time I spoke to her was here at the house yesterday. So I'd say someone impersonated me to get her out of town, just to prevent another injury if he's that abusive when he's drunk." I said and they nodded to me at the news.

"Research subjects, $900 a week..." she said softly, her tone going hopeful. "It's about then, that my idea to give me another month in the apartment. As a result, so I was doing this to save my partment, but at the time. Just, so I could find a new one now came to the fore." she said and I nodded as I heard my voice say it. "Mom how much was the rent exactly?" I asked and she explained it to me, before she could though.

Eleanor turned to me to explain this with a bemused smile on her face at that. "I feel like we're doing a repeater of Beetlejuice here at the moment, repeated hauntings and the ghosts are possesing things just to scare us out of the house here. But so far it's not working, but this guy's a lunatic." she said and I chuckled and nodded. "Trust me I understand why, but that's why I'm not leaving you alone anymore at the moment."

"Whoever our mysterious adult ghost is, he's likely across between Beetlejuice and Fred Krueger, though that's true and he attacks everytime we leave you alone. Well then enough of the separating already, he's not getting a second chance to try it now at the moment." I said and she nodded as Rebecca answered my question. "The apartment was owned by me, but $500 a month, and utilities came to another $300."

"So to her, that's why she was doing this, not just a desire to be a volunteer, but so she could keep our apartment by being a volunteer now. But you just hit the nail on the head son, Rob impersonated you to get her out of the house. As we set the trap and they walked right into it, we're waiting for him to make that mistake, but probate ends on All Saints Day." Theo read out and we nodded to that.

Watching the tape, I watched her think it over. "Where's this house exactly?" she asked and I heard a voice answer her. "It's in Concord and the Berkshires." he said and she nodded as she said it then and smiled. "What's the thesis exactly, because if you're choosing this, I did my own research paper in college. And my own disrotation focused on fear and performance and sleep deprivation."

"So I'd gladly volunteer for this, when's the meet and greet?" she asked and the voice explained that as I smiled at her eagerness to get involved. "In ten days, we are meeting at the house." he said and she nodded. "Alright, what's your assistant's name exactly?" she asked and he explained that to her. "Mary Lambretta, and our office number is (617) 523-4255." he said and she nodded as she said it then.

"Alright thank you and see you soon, Doctor." she said and hung up as she went back into her mother's room, and pulled something out as I saw the title of the folder. Seeing the name on it, she smiled. "Experiment, second chance to put my own model to use finally, mom if this was your idea, I owe you big right now. But those two, if this was a test, are getting their's once I speak to Malcolm."

"Though how Malcolm is going to take this is anyone's guess or who his subordinate is now, though if said subordinate is the man who just called me. Then all the better right now, there's more then meets the eye, but that will has words that were stopped being used by the mid 30's. So if this was a test, I'm going to pass it for you, but time to start over, I need to save the apartment."

"Our home, and I won't fail you mom, I promise." she said and we ended it at that. "For the moment, I'm looking at this becoming like a starter, first scares of the Goosebumps genre category and they start getting more destructive. As time goes on and until they hit A Nightmare on Elm Street though that's true. And we got a serious problem, but think about it, you're a full psychiatrist, I'm intern with experience."

"In the paranormal and pattern nightmares, we got a bunch of kids haunting the house, my parents are contacting you, through me and so on. You see what I'm saying here right now?" she asked and I nodded firmly. "Yeah and you're trying to get to bottom of this, I'm the only who can help you out with this. But it's just making sure we survive the night, us and the duo, once it really gets started." I said and she took my hand at that.

"So far the last 24 hours have shifted from playful intrusions to turning into cruel practical jokes, and as we all know, practical jokes cause damage and hurt feelings. But our mysterious poltergeist is trying the second just to scare us out of the house. But what happened earlier and last night is still up for debate here right now. Though at the moment it's not working right now, but the meaning of the message, not sure yet."

"Welcome home." she said and I nodded and moved closer to her. "You'll never see it again, Mr. Dudley's taken care of it, come on, there's something I want you to see." I said and she nodded as I lead her to the greenhouse then, looking around I saw her eyes widen as she said it smiling. "Wow, this is beautiful." she said and I chuckled, knowing I got it right in her case, anything I could to make her happy, she was my everything.

"Thought you'd like it." I said and then saw a bizarre image of a statue bathing in the fountain and nodded to it. "Well I wonder what happened to him." I added and she turned to look at it and chuckled. "Yeah." she said as we got a better look at the flowers and she nodded. "Oh violets, somebody must have died here." she said and I nodded. 'The records said Renee killed herself, but violets in the green house now.'

'Could she have done it in here?' I thought to myself as she confided in me then gently as she told me the truth. "Since mom got sick, the surgery bypass, I had to set aside my dreams, but all my life I wanted an adventure. And I thought it would never happen to me, adventures were for soldiers, women, for the bull fighters. The phone call opened up a chance to live one and here I am, I have painting sending messages to me."

"Strange noises in the night and all it cost me was five dollars worth of gas, but even better now, it gave me back everything I lost since I dropped out of college now. A life, friends and most importantly a chance at having family finally now. I have it all back now and it won't be long before whatever this mystery is, reveals why I never finished school." she said as she moved to the stairs, hearing that I got the idea now.

My new soulmate, wanted a chance to live her life, but this mystery was turning into a siren song now at that remark firmly, as I moved closer to her at that. This was either some sick joke or we had someone, and possibly a maniac. And who was playing dangerous games with her and ones that could put her in the hospital if it continued. 'David, the chance at getting her training continued, it could get dangerous.'

'If need be, you're going to have to pull the plug, if she gets hit by one too many.' I heard and hid a nod as I said it to her gently at that. "Do you really think someone is playing with you Eleanor?" I asked, as I moved to the first step then. "Doesn't matter, I can be a victim or I cam be a volunteer, I'm going to be a volunteer, yeah." she said as she went further up, before Dudley's remark on it came forward.
