The quiet 181 00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:50,440 Speaker 5: was interrupted to me by the threshing of a body 182 00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:53,480 Speaker 5: and water, and the screams of my Ruth. The child 183 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:57,000 Speaker 5: had fallen into the water up river from me. I 184 00:13:57,120 --> 00:13:59,440 Speaker 5: was able, without much effort to wade in and fish 185 00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:05,920 Speaker 5: him out, carrying him to shore. He was quite unharmed physically, 186 00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:10,200 Speaker 5: but I could see that he had the fear of 187 00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:15,640 Speaker 5: death in him. Suddenly he was in his eyes wide 188 00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:19,320 Speaker 5: with a horrifying revelation that his safety was not promised 189 00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:22,720 Speaker 5: him in this world. Even if at that young age 190 00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 5: he could not articulate it. I recognized it, and so 191 00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:32,840 Speaker 5: he carried it forward with him, And whenever business took 192 00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:36,720 Speaker 5: him by the river, he shuddered at the memory and 193 00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:39,720 Speaker 5: kept out of its waters until well into his adulthood. 194 00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:43,720 Speaker 5: I did not forget the look of fear in his 195 00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:51,480 Speaker 5: eyes that morning. He gave me that look again recently, 196 00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:57,320 Speaker 5: except that it was not the river he feared. He 197 00:14:57,440 --> 00:15:03,920 Speaker 5: feared me, Demeris. Even in the midst of my holy 198 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:06,760 Speaker 5: war these last few weeks, I felt the sting of 199 00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:12,320 Speaker 5: his fear something deep inside me, beneath even my love 200 00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:18,720 Speaker 5: of God the Father, and me recoiled at it. I 201 00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:21,440 Speaker 5: did not listen to that heart of hearts. Instead, I 202 00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:26,800 Speaker 5: drove on until every route had been pulled, until Sepia 203 00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:32,000 Speaker 5: Havoc lay dead and her infernal husband was driven from 204 00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:39,480 Speaker 5: this town. But at what cost to merce? I under 205 00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:44,760 Speaker 5: estimated Jury Havoc. He was no simple monster doing evil 206 00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:48,040 Speaker 5: for the sake of evil. He was no ancient of Satan. 207 00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:52,760 Speaker 5: He was not a monster, just a very powerful creature 208 00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:56,920 Speaker 5: with his own interests in mind. And I know now 209 00:15:57,720 --> 00:16:01,520 Speaker 5: that there is nothing more dangerous than a rich man 210 00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:08,840 Speaker 5: who believes that he is right. Vampire or not. I 211 00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:14,720 Speaker 5: will not kill you. You have done no wrong. I 212 00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:17,600 Speaker 5: simply ask that you do not create more misery with 213 00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:22,800 Speaker 5: whatever second life you have coming. If you are reborn 214 00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:28,440 Speaker 5: with any decency left in you, abstain from the baser instincts. 215 00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:33,760 Speaker 5: I wish you well as for me, as for you. 216 00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:38,000 Speaker 5: I used to feel the Spirit speak to me in 217 00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:41,880 Speaker 5: the tree and fields. I felt him move in the 218 00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:45,280 Speaker 5: beams of our great church, in the sunlight that would 219 00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:48,680 Speaker 5: stream in through the windows, sitting in the pulpit that 220 00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:52,720 Speaker 5: I would preach my sermons from inbuing me with his power, 221 00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:58,120 Speaker 5: his love. I heard him speaking from deep within me, 222 00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:05,760 Speaker 5: guiding my each, my heart, my hands. But he no 223 00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:12,399 Speaker 5: longer speaks. He left me when we exhumed the first body. 224 00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:17,480 Speaker 5: What followed was all my own machination. 225 00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:22,080 Speaker 3: Wait where are you going? 226 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:27,360 Speaker 5: You will need to leave this place, cut ties. Your 227 00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:31,320 Speaker 5: children aren't good hands with God fearing people. You must 228 00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:34,320 Speaker 5: not endanger them with the semi sickness that is to follow. 229 00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:40,440 Speaker 5: The only way for our bloodline to continue is without us. 230 00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:45,760 Speaker 5: I am cursed and have cursed you in turn. We 231 00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:49,520 Speaker 5: mustn't continue to visit our sins on our children. 232 00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:53,600 Speaker 1: But I don't know what to do. I can't, I 233 00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:55,960 Speaker 1: can't just I don't know. 234 00:17:56,200 --> 00:18:01,080 Speaker 5: Father Josiah, you will find your way forward. Go with God. 235 00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:03,240 Speaker 1: Where are you going? 236 00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:09,840 Speaker 5: I'm going to make my peace with God. Farewell, child, 237 00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:15,040 Speaker 5: This world is yours now to grapple with. As Jacob 238 00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:21,040 Speaker 5: grappled with the angel, may'd give you its blessing. 239 00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:34,280 Speaker 3: He was found by a parishioner the following day, hanging 240 00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:38,080 Speaker 3: from a beam above the pulpit. It took for a 241 00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:41,639 Speaker 3: man to get him down. He was buried in a 242 00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:47,359 Speaker 3: pauper's grave. There was no one to mourn him, and 243 00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:49,359 Speaker 3: I believe you know the aftermath. 244 00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:51,679 Speaker 1: My diary found. 245 00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:59,200 Speaker 3: The only page is missing those which exonerated poor father Josiah. 246 00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:03,120 Speaker 3: The town was named injury Havoc's honor after he left 247 00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:09,280 Speaker 3: a large bequest to the church, our name forever synonymous 248 00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:15,720 Speaker 3: with violence, semmetary. Havoc went on to continue the business, 249 00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:19,679 Speaker 3: the business of slowly gathering power. 250 00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:39,000 Speaker 1: What is it? Yeah? 251 00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:45,240 Speaker 3: What there will be more? How do you feel like 252 00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:49,760 Speaker 3: I've got the flu coming on? Any hallucinations? Said an 253 00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:50,960 Speaker 3: anger panic. 254 00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:52,440 Speaker 1: I know I'm dying. 255 00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:59,639 Speaker 3: Yes, I can't pretend that it'll be pleasant. But you've 256 00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:02,160 Speaker 3: got something that I didn't when I was infected. 257 00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:08,960 Speaker 1: What's that? Morphine? Lots and lots of morphine. What did 258 00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:14,239 Speaker 1: you do after you were left alone? I didn't know 259 00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:14,879 Speaker 1: what would happen. 260 00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:18,760 Speaker 3: I just knew that when I was taken by the 261 00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:21,840 Speaker 3: madness of the blood fever, I didn't want to be 262 00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:27,000 Speaker 3: among people, and so I went deep into the forest 263 00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:30,200 Speaker 3: on the western end of town. I walked for as 264 00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:34,520 Speaker 3: long as I could, until finally the exhaustion and the 265 00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:36,320 Speaker 3: symptoms of my owness overtook me. 266 00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:42,760 Speaker 1: I thought that I would freeze to death. First, the 267 00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:46,840 Speaker 1: nights were so cold, but the fever took that bear 268 00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:51,000 Speaker 1: from me. My bones shook and. 269 00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:55,399 Speaker 3: My teeth chipped from shivering. But such a heat poured 270 00:20:55,440 --> 00:21:01,520 Speaker 3: forth from me, and when the hallucinations started. Cannot begin 271 00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:04,520 Speaker 3: to express how the shadows of the forest terrified me, 272 00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:18,800 Speaker 3: and the weakness, the madness, and then the quiet. You 273 00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:22,040 Speaker 3: will know soon enough, the thrill that comes with walking 274 00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:29,399 Speaker 3: into your new life, the terror, the abject loneliness. 275 00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:33,200 Speaker 1: The thirst. But you will have a guide. 276 00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:37,760 Speaker 3: You're not alone as I was. I knew that I 277 00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:43,199 Speaker 3: must not interact with the living, not yet, not until 278 00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:47,159 Speaker 3: I found the way to control my thirst. I didn't 279 00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:50,640 Speaker 3: know how to hunt, but I knew that I could 280 00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:56,800 Speaker 3: go down to the river and with patience find fresh 281 00:21:56,880 --> 00:21:58,520 Speaker 3: blood in the fish that resided there. 282 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:01,360 Speaker 1: And so. 283 00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:07,359 Speaker 3: For a time I lived as a hermit. I was 284 00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:10,520 Speaker 3: always thirsty and had a source of blood that. 285 00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:11,479 Speaker 1: Wouldn't draw notice. 286 00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:17,240 Speaker 3: And when I felt strong enough had enough control over 287 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:21,160 Speaker 3: my thirst, I slowly made my way back into town 288 00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:25,840 Speaker 3: under the cover of night, wrapped in a cloak stolen 289 00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:29,280 Speaker 3: from a clothes line, The hood pulled far over my head. 290 00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:35,359 Speaker 3: Noah had told me of his cash of currency, so 291 00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:39,320 Speaker 3: as the town slept, I crept back into the church 292 00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:45,320 Speaker 3: for the first time since I had turned. I was 293 00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:48,520 Speaker 3: worried that perhaps God would strike me down if I 294 00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:52,320 Speaker 3: crossed the threshold, and a part of me very much 295 00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:55,800 Speaker 3: hoped that he would, That I would face his wrath 296 00:22:55,880 --> 00:23:02,680 Speaker 3: and be ended on the spot. Yes, the Lord had 297 00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:03,840 Speaker 3: no further interest in me. 298 00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:08,080 Speaker 1: I felt like a ghost. 299 00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:13,880 Speaker 3: Haunting this place my family had built, which I'd spent 300 00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:17,600 Speaker 3: so much time watching rise from the bedrock, under whose 301 00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:23,560 Speaker 3: eaves my children had run and played. But it wasn't mine. 302 00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:30,440 Speaker 3: If it ever happened, I reached the spot Noah I 303 00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:37,040 Speaker 3: had described, and with filthy fingers, pried at the loose floorboard, 304 00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:41,840 Speaker 3: finally pulling it free to find the package wrapped in 305 00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:48,520 Speaker 3: burl up, my sweet husband's parting gift. The promise of 306 00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:54,000 Speaker 3: a future, if only I could make one. 307 00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:55,560 Speaker 6: I clutched to it. 308 00:23:57,119 --> 00:23:58,400 Speaker 1: As I rose to leave. 309 00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:05,040 Speaker 3: The silhouette in the darkness, A slight frame standing in 310 00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:09,720 Speaker 3: the open door to the outside, and she saw me. 311 00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:15,160 Speaker 1: Is that missus Spaulding? Who's there? 312 00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:22,760 Speaker 3: Mary Spalding, a neighbor. Our children had played together since birth? 313 00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:25,480 Speaker 8: Who are you? 314 00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:30,800 Speaker 3: It is no one a passerby interested in the recent bloodshed? 315 00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:35,520 Speaker 8: Then begone. Enough misery has befallen this place. Allow the 316 00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:36,720 Speaker 8: dead to sleep in peace. 317 00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:40,120 Speaker 1: What happened here? Nothing good? 318 00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:43,320 Speaker 8: A madman committed the most heinous of crimes? 319 00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:45,720 Speaker 1: Was it the rich man on the hill? 320 00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:49,520 Speaker 8: He was the one to stop the madness, but not 321 00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:52,640 Speaker 8: before his poor sick wife was murdered. 322 00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:56,760 Speaker 1: Who then was the madman? 323 00:24:58,080 --> 00:25:03,679 Speaker 8: It was the Reverend Josiah Abbys. He used the cloak 324 00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:07,320 Speaker 8: of our faith is a costume. He murdered, enraged, he 325 00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:10,440 Speaker 8: brought fear to our town. He murdered his own son. 326 00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:11,840 Speaker 1: Can you believe in? 327 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:17,160 Speaker 8: Poor de Maris ned herself somewhere, you know not where. 328 00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:20,720 Speaker 8: We only have her diary. She followed him to Havock's door. 329 00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:24,640 Speaker 8: But then her story ends. The following pages were torn out. 330 00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:28,640 Speaker 8: She must be dead, where else. 331 00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:31,479 Speaker 1: Would she be? And what of her children? 332 00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:34,480 Speaker 8: I expect that they will take up residence in the 333 00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:38,400 Speaker 8: abbess house. They have at least sane relatives to care 334 00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:44,280 Speaker 8: for them. The poor children, orphan carrying an infamous name, 335 00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:47,280 Speaker 8: What will become of them? 336 00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:52,879 Speaker 3: I made a decision then that regretfully, would curse my 337 00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:59,119 Speaker 3: progeny for generations to come. Mary Spalding was a stupid woman, 338 00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:04,639 Speaker 3: but one who the others listened to. I did not 339 00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:05,480 Speaker 3: correct her. 340 00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:10,000 Speaker 8: At any rate. It is not proper for you to 341 00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:13,719 Speaker 8: be here.

Why did you do it? 348 00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:37,359 Speaker 3: Because the truth would have sent my children searching for me, 349 00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:39,919 Speaker 3: and there was not to be any good in that. 350 00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:41,400 Speaker 1: And what could I do? 351 00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:47,640 Speaker 3: A bloodthirsty bean thought dead? You see how people responded 352 00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:52,360 Speaker 3: the unknown. Now imagine years ago, before there was modern medicine, 353 00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:59,600 Speaker 3: modern science, nothing but paranoia and superstition. It was better 354 00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:02,160 Speaker 3: to mark with the shame of zelotry than the mark 355 00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:02,960 Speaker 3: of superstition. 356 00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:08,480 Speaker 1: What did you do instead? I went and tried to 357 00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:09,080 Speaker 1: make a life. 358 00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:13,679 Speaker 3: I learned how to care for the ill, thinking that 359 00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:17,720 Speaker 3: it would soothe my soul to do good. I stayed 360 00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:20,000 Speaker 3: in Boston so I was to remain close enough to 361 00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:21,640 Speaker 3: watch over my children as they grew. 362 00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:25,360 Speaker 1: I watched my youngest board a. 363 00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:32,480 Speaker 3: Merchant ship then disappear forever, and my oldest as he 364 00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:35,960 Speaker 3: stayed on in a town that cursed his name, and 365 00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:41,040 Speaker 3: I watched him struggle and fight and somehow grow and 366 00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:46,800 Speaker 3: raise a child himself. That I was bitter, so bitter, 367 00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:50,359 Speaker 3: And as the years passed, I began to study the 368 00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:55,639 Speaker 3: man who had taken everything to study his business, to 369 00:27:55,720 --> 00:28:00,240 Speaker 3: learn its reach, its scope. When he ope and a 370 00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:03,520 Speaker 3: new office in Boston to manage maritime business in the Northeast, 371 00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:07,639 Speaker 3: I decided that it was time to strike the first blow. 372 00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:12,880 Speaker 3: At night, I broke in, stole any information I could 373 00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:17,040 Speaker 3: about the inner workings of his company, and then I 374 00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:22,199 Speaker 3: burned it down. They used the information gleaned for the 375 00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:26,080 Speaker 3: next strike, sabotaging his ships in small ways so that 376 00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:29,920 Speaker 3: a mass would crack midway through a journey. Burning the 377 00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:34,080 Speaker 3: factory down here and there. I knew these small things 378 00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:38,000 Speaker 3: wouldn't topple an empire. But in time I was able 379 00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:42,120 Speaker 3: to gather my own resources, pay agents to do damage 380 00:28:42,160 --> 00:28:46,920 Speaker 3: for me, hiring bloodites to storm his factories, stealing patented 381 00:28:46,960 --> 00:28:49,800 Speaker 3: inventions and giving them for free. It would be competitors 382 00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:52,600 Speaker 3: in the twentieth century. It was as easy as sewing 383 00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:55,600 Speaker 3: to sent among these employees. You know, in many of 384 00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:57,800 Speaker 3: his factories, all you'd need to do is point out 385 00:28:57,800 --> 00:29:02,440 Speaker 3: their poor working conditions. Workers would take it from there later. Still, 386 00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:07,440 Speaker 3: now it's hackers, ransomware. Why the hell didn't you just 387 00:29:07,600 --> 00:29:08,080 Speaker 3: kill him? 388 00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:13,600 Speaker 1: We've already died, darling. I wanted to take from him 389 00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:14,960 Speaker 1: everything else. 390 00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:18,800 Speaker 3: Of course, you can only hide yourself away in chaos 391 00:29:18,840 --> 00:29:22,720 Speaker 3: for so long. I knew he'd figure me out eventually, 392 00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:27,760 Speaker 3: and so he came here to see what I would do. 393 00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:36,800 Speaker 1: And what did you do?
