Speaker 1: Rhonda, Hallelujah, the.

7
00:00:42,240 --> 00:00:50,479
Speaker 5: Eleventh of October sixteen fifty six, kringa hysteria. This is

8
00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:55,880
Speaker 5: Father Ivan, my elder father Josef refuses to write another entreaty.

9
00:00:56,960 --> 00:01:00,400
Speaker 5: He has seen the church is in action, and so

10
00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:03,520
Speaker 5: it is left to me to appeal to the Holy

11
00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:09,039
Speaker 5: Council and to beg once more for our lives. The

12
00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:13,600
Speaker 5: village is ravaged with the blood fever. Entire families have

13
00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:19,280
Speaker 5: been consumed and perer the Cardinal's instructions. The bodies have

14
00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:20,880
Speaker 5: been burned as soon.

15
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:24,400
Speaker 2: As they succumb. It has come in waves.

16
00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:28,480
Speaker 5: There are nights when you can see the bonfires far

17
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:34,040
Speaker 5: up into the hills, smell the flesh burning, the stars

18
00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:38,240
Speaker 5: in the sky blotted out by the smoke. But it

19
00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:42,920
Speaker 5: is the quiet night that bring me true dread. We

20
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:47,319
Speaker 5: had one such night earlier this week. No one reported dead,

21
00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:51,760
Speaker 5: no bonfires lighting up the night. I stood on the

22
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:55,240
Speaker 5: steps of the church and looked out over the town,

23
00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:59,680
Speaker 5: and it was not hard to imagine that I was

24
00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:04,240
Speaker 5: the light, best living man in hysteria. We are a

25
00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:07,640
Speaker 5: small ship in a great storm, and I fear the

26
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:13,560
Speaker 5: next wave will extinguish us. If you do not hear

27
00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:18,840
Speaker 5: from me again, assume that I too, am smoke in

28
00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:52,840
Speaker 5: the night sky.

29
00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:58,160
Speaker 2: M h m hmm.

30
00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:13,440
Speaker 1: Come on. I have nightmares all my life. I've had them,

31
00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:15,960
Speaker 1: so it really never had anything to do with this

32
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:19,960
Speaker 1: particular day. That is to say, if I look back

33
00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:24,880
Speaker 1: on this particular day and you ask, hey, Grin, would

34
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:27,519
Speaker 1: anything have tipped you off about how badly this day

35
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:30,320
Speaker 1: was going to go off the rails, say a premonition

36
00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:33,680
Speaker 1: in the form of a dream, I'd say, yeah, no, dummy,

37
00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:37,880
Speaker 1: that's stupid. Dreams are our way of sifting through our

38
00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 1: impressions of the day and making sense of them, fitting

39
00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:45,400
Speaker 1: them in a neat little narrative. They don't tell you

40
00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:47,080
Speaker 1: ahead of time that the world is getting ready to

41
00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:52,680
Speaker 1: burn down. My name is Korean ABIs. I own a bar.

42
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,880
Speaker 1: It's a family bar that my dad owned, and his

43
00:03:56,960 --> 00:04:00,760
Speaker 1: dad before him. I'm not sure that's important to the story.

44
00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:05,320
Speaker 1: But I spend most of my time there, so hey,

45
00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:12,000
Speaker 1: how was the treatment not fully covered? But the hospital

46
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:16,080
Speaker 1: is in network, so you're you're telling me that the

47
00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:18,919
Speaker 1: specialist was not in network. Uh huh, well, what the

48
00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:24,719
Speaker 1: hell does that mean for us? Yes, I'll hold morning

Speaker 1: Pop Insurance. Yeah, on hold, I'll call him later. No, No,

54
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:54,720
Speaker 6: insurance people myself.

55
00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:58,520
Speaker 1: No, you always get pissed off and lose it on them.

56
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:02,520
Speaker 1: Look exhausted rough night.

57
00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:06,000
Speaker 2: I haven't slept through a night in months.

58

Speaker 6: Did it lapse?

62
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:25,640
Speaker 1: Yes, second year in a row. I've forgotten. I'm an idiot.

63
00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:31,000
Speaker 6: Listen, kiddo. When I was in charge, we almost lost

64
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:44,400
Speaker 6: the damn business. You're in good company, Oh.

65
00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:52,719
Speaker 1: Jesus Pop, I'm okay, you sure?

66
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:54,000
Speaker 7: Yeah?

Speaker 1: You too. You stay out of trouble.

84
00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:38,479
Speaker 7: Shit.

85
00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:44,760
Speaker 1: Our house has been in the family for one hundred years.

86
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:48,040
Speaker 1: The family has been in this town a lot longer

87
00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:53,360
Speaker 1: than that. Beautiful Havoc, New Hampshire population three eight hundred

88
00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:56,400
Speaker 1: and eighty six, located in the foothills of the White

89
00:06:56,480 --> 00:07:00,640
Speaker 1: Mountains and once a prosperous farming town before becoming a

90
00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:05,000
Speaker 1: prosperous mill town. Before all that went away. We survive

91
00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:08,040
Speaker 1: now in various and sundry ways, not the least of

92
00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:11,600
Speaker 1: which is tourism. During the fall. The countryside around here

93
00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:15,720
Speaker 1: is littered with apple orchards, pumpkin patches, all matter of

94
00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:20,080
Speaker 1: picturesque colonial barns and gristmills that pop when the leaves turn.

95
00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:27,680
Speaker 1: But more than that, it's the vampires, well not real vampires. See,

96
00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:31,320
Speaker 1: we have a sort of history of religious zealots in

97
00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:33,960
Speaker 1: this town. For instance, brother can here.

98
00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:38,560
Speaker 3: Who go abroad to the kings of the whole world.

99
00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:41,800

Speaker 1: Indeed, Miss abbys How's business.

102
00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:46,600
Speaker 9: There's no end to the work of salvation, ma'am.

103
00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:51,080
Speaker 1: Don't I know it? Have a good one, yes, ma'am.

104
00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:54,720
Speaker 7: Demonic spirits performing signs who go abroad to the kings

105
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:55,840
Speaker 7: of the whole world.

106
00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:59,920
Speaker 1: To susions of the classic Fire and Brimstone school of preaching,

107
00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:04,720
Speaker 1: more than their share have called Havoc home one in

108
00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:08,240
Speaker 1: particular kind of bloody swath through the heart of the town.

109
00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:11,880
Speaker 1: See Salem's got their witch trials, while we have.

110
00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:16,520
Speaker 10: The Abbesstown vampire panic of eighteen seventeen.

111

112

Speaker 1: their only tour guide, and a huge fan of my family.

113
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:31,520
Speaker 10: Over the course of a bloody fortnight, Josiah Abbess, the

114
00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:35,160
Speaker 10: mad Preacher, led a mob of religious zealots to dig

115
00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:38,320
Speaker 10: up numerous bodies of plague victims that they claim to

116
00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:43,400
Speaker 10: be vampires, desecrating their corpses and scandalizing the community until

117
00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:49,280
Speaker 10: that fateful night that he went too far. Hello Sarabeth Ah,

136
00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:49,280

Speaker 1: knows your business and your father's and his father's all

138
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:57,319
Speaker 1: the way back, so you get painted with the same brush,

139
00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:00,640
Speaker 1: especially if those ancestors of yours up in to be

140
00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:04,800
Speaker 1: insane and led the charge on the most macabre event

141
00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:08,960
Speaker 1: in your town's history. Once held in such high esteem

142
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:13,280
Speaker 1: that our fair city was literally named Abbystown, the Abbes's

143
00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:16,440
Speaker 1: bloodline was forever laid low by the actions of the

144
00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:22,320
Speaker 1: good Reverend Josiah Abbess. The town's name Pavoc now unronically.

145
00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:28,439
Speaker 7: So the man says, I founded this town.

146
00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:29,800
Speaker 1: I know this one, Jimbo.

147
00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:33,120
Speaker 7: Just wait, he says, built her up, made sure she

148
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:36,960
Speaker 7: was good and stable, set up the local constabulary, you know.

149
00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:39,240
Speaker 7: But do they call me the town founder?

150
00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:39,800
Speaker 3: No?

151
00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:44,079

Speaker 11: Jimo, I swear to God.

155
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:53,920
Speaker 1: Well no, no, I've been slammed, first with Dad's insurance

156
00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:56,800
Speaker 1: and then the inventory. Who reads their paper?

Speaker 1: Isn't that at least interesting to you?

181
00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:20,959
Speaker 11: As I don't know the last of a bloodline cursed

182
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:22,400
Speaker 11: by his great great great great.

183

00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:42,400
Speaker 1: That's insane.

190
00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:43,880
Speaker 3: You are hopeless.

191
00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:47,120
Speaker 1: What do you expect me to say, Sylvie? We're understaffed.

192
00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:49,480
Speaker 1: I've got to renew the liquor license today or we'll

193
00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:51,560
Speaker 1: lose it. I spend half the morning on the line

194
00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:54,480
Speaker 1: with Dad's insurance because for some reason, they're not covering

195
00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:56,079
Speaker 1: his most recent round of testing.

196
00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:58,200
Speaker 11: Oh honey, I'm sorry.

00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:26,840
Speaker 1: Right, Okay, Mama's got Aaron's to run. Okay, hold down

205
00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:27,360
Speaker 1: the fort?

206
00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:30,280
Speaker 7: Well, do you didn't let me finish my joke?

207
00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:32,560
Speaker 1: Screw your joke quick.

208
00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:35,960
Speaker 7: So the guy says, I founded the town, But do

209
00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:39,400
Speaker 7: they call me the town founder? No? No, I built

210
00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:42,120
Speaker 7: the g I built the church brick by brick, preached

211
00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:44,360
Speaker 7: the gospel there every Sunday. But do they call me

212
00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:46,040
Speaker 7: the town preacher? No?

213
00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:46,120
Speaker 2: No.

214
00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:49,400
Speaker 7: I planted the very first apple tree in town?

215
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:55,160
Speaker 11: But did they call me, ibis that no?

216
00:13:57,280 --> 00:13:57,960
Speaker 7: So you've heard it?

217
00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:01,120
Speaker 1: Then, coffee's on the house, jims, Sylvie. I'll be back

218
00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:04,240
Speaker 1: in a couple hours. Don't let my bar burn down, gotcha, hun?

219
00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:14,480
Speaker 1: That right? There was the entirety of my day to

220
00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:21,200
Speaker 1: day life. Dad, Aaron's labar and a cycle. Days become weeks,

221
00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:27,320
Speaker 1: become months, become years, and you know what, it was? Fine, dependable, quiet.

222
00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:32,280
Speaker 1: Maybe I got bored from time to time. Maybe I

223
00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:37,600
Speaker 1: sometimes remember the dreams of my youth. Maybe being caretaker

224
00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:41,360
Speaker 1: to Dad and the ragtag group of eccentric drunks that

225
00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:46,840
Speaker 1: made Dotti's hideaway home occasionally bore on me. I'd become

226
00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:54,600
Speaker 1: accustomed to the steadiness of things, comforted, lulled. And this

227
00:14:54,640 --> 00:15:00,680
Speaker 1: is the moment it all ended, the hell When the

228
00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:04,760
Speaker 1: forest Green two thousand Toyota Corolla came barreling through the

229
00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:09,120
Speaker 1: intersection and onto Maine, slamming into a garbage can. I

230
00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:14,320
Speaker 1: froze when its driver steered directly toward me. All I

231
00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:18,160
Speaker 1: could do was let out a quiet sigh of resignation.

232
00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:31,360
Speaker 8: Hey you're right.

233
00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:36,400
Speaker 1: Uh oh shit? You are you bleeding?

234
00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:40,840
Speaker 2: Uh? Sorry not? I think that's.

235
00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:42,760
Speaker 1: You write your suit?

236
00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:46,600
Speaker 12: Oh suits me, it's actually a bit all quite shabby.

237
00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:48,480
Speaker 12: I was thinking donating it to charity.

238
00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:52,200
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, what what's happening?

239
00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:54,760
Speaker 12: What looks like the man that was driving that car

240
00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:59,040
Speaker 12: tried to mow you down and he missed, luckily decided

241
00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:00,640
Speaker 12: to hit the courthouse instead.

242
00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:02,440
Speaker 2: Looks like he's murdered the front axle.

243
00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:03,840
Speaker 1: Is he okay?

244
00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:09,360
Speaker 2: Oh yes, he's Oh actually he's he's bleeding, leaving quite

245
00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:09,640
Speaker 2: a lot.

246
00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:13,200
Speaker 7: Oh shit, get back everyone, he's gone axe.

247
00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:18,800
Speaker 1: Oh my god. The driver was covered in blood from

248
00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:23,600
Speaker 1: head to toe and in his hands an old axe.

249
00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:26,080
Speaker 1: I don't know what I was expecting from him, but

250
00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:30,960
Speaker 1: it wasn't for him to start swinging. The first couple

251
00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:34,840
Speaker 1: of onlookers managed to duck his swings, but poor old

252
00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:39,240
Speaker 1: mister Shelton took the blade to the shoulder and collapsed.

253
00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:45,440
Speaker 2: Maybe you should get out the past. The blood to

254
00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:45,920
Speaker 2: the Master.

255
00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:47,880
Speaker 8: That's the blood of the Master.

256
00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:51,560
Speaker 10: That's the blood of the Master, the Master.

257
00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:52,560
Speaker 1: The plot.

258
00:16:56,760 --> 00:17:03,160
Speaker 13: Jesus, Jesus Christ, call nine one one, but I don't

259
00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:09,679
Speaker 13: have my radio. It's okay, j Jesus, I ain't never

260
00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:10,800
Speaker 13: shot any one, Corin.

261
00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:14,880
Speaker 7: I need to stop his bleeding.

262
00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:20,960
Speaker 1: God, he's covered with where where is it all coming from?

263
00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:25,840
Speaker 12: Uh maybe you shouldn't touch him, No nonsense.

264
00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:31,000
Speaker 7: I got to keep him alive. Hey, hey, buddy, it's

265
00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:37,840
Speaker 7: all right. Uh, calm down and let me God damn animal,

266
00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:40,720
Speaker 7: they put me Jesus sit still?

267
00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:45,400
Speaker 8: They all right?

268
00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:48,320
Speaker 2: I mean you get a pretty scraped up hm.

269
00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:59,080
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, I'm okay, sore, little little shell shocked.

270
00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:01,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, well and good company. I'm sorry.

271
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:05,439
Speaker 1: What's your name, Oh Krinn, I'm Krinn.

272
00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:08,440
Speaker 2: Well, nice to meet you, Chrinn.

273
00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:13,040
Speaker 12: Under the circumstances, yeah shit.

274
00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:18,600
Speaker 1: Well, thank you for pushing me out of the way.

275
00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:19,520
Speaker 1: You saved my life.

276
00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:22,639
Speaker 2: I don't mention it.

277
00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:29,520
Speaker 12: It's just lucky.

278
00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:26,879
Speaker 2: All right.

279
00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:28,400
Speaker 8: Jimbo got an ambulance.

280
00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:35,120
Speaker 7: What. Wow, that's a lot of blood. What the hell happened?

281
00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:37,240
Speaker 7: Crazy son of a bitch?

282
00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:37,840
Speaker 2: Bit me?

283
00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:41,440
Speaker 7: What's up? At Dotty's? And I heard the car burned

284
00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:45,720
Speaker 7: by slam it to the courthouse. The guy came out

285
00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:47,840
Speaker 7: swinging people, scattering.

286
00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:51,920
Speaker 1: It was a blur after that. The Havoc police hadn't

287
00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:56,119
Speaker 1: had anything resembling homicide in a decade, and they'd never

288
00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:59,679
Speaker 1: seen anything like this man dressed in chinos and a

289
00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:03,800
Speaker 1: pole low shirt, covered in blood and slamming into the

290
00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:09,639
Speaker 1: courthouse steps. Mister Shelton didn't make it. He was dead

291
00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:15,879
Speaker 1: before he hit the ground. His poor wife, his poor kids,

292
00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:21,639
Speaker 1: and his grandkids. I got questioned by Jimbo before they

293
00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:23,600
Speaker 1: sent him off to the hospital to get his hand

294
00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:26,840
Speaker 1: checked out by Jay Campbell, the first on the scene

295
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:29,480
Speaker 1: and then the second on the scene, all the way up,

296
00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:35,200
Speaker 1: repeat questions, disbelief. They weren't accustomed to this sort of thing.

297
00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:38,920
Speaker 1: I was four officers deep before anybody saw my scrapes

298
00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:42,840
Speaker 1: and thought to have someone look at them. It was

299
00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:59,560
Speaker 1: sunset before they let me go. You know how waking

300
00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:03,680
Speaker 1: up from a dream, a familiar place can look suddenly

301
00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:11,239
Speaker 1: completely alien. Well, Main Street, Havoc, New Hampshire may as

302
00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:13,800
Speaker 1: well have been the surface of the moon to me

303
00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:17,960
Speaker 1: that night, with the mobs of concerned citizens crowding the

304
00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:21,520
Speaker 1: streets and the flickering blue lights bouncing off the walls

305
00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:25,800
Speaker 1: of the buildings. I didn't know where to go and

306
00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:27,520
Speaker 1: what to do until.

307
00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:33,399
Speaker 9: Couren Karen, Oh my god, sweet. They wouldn't tell me

308
00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:36,480
Speaker 9: what happened. I thought i'd lost you. There's so much chaos.

309
00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:38,560
Speaker 9: Are you Are you okay? Your dad called, he is

310
00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:39,440
Speaker 9: worried sick.

311
00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:44,760
Speaker 1: Oh shit, yeah, I think I dropped my phone when

312
00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:47,479
Speaker 1: I hit the pavement. They didn't get you a doctor.

313
00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:51,040
Speaker 1: Oh no, I'm fine. I'm fine, Sylvie. Just let's just

314
00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:53,359
Speaker 1: go to Dotty's and let me have a drink and

315
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:57,400
Speaker 1: call my father of course. Honey, okay, come on.

316
00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:02,760
