SCENE 1
Alex, Lucy and Fran have just moved into their new house for university.
While unpacking things they have a conversation about their new house.
Alex
[Putting down boxes] I’m so glad we have finally moved out of that
horrible dorm.
Lucy
[Whilst passing a box to Alex] I know. We are going to have so much
more freedom now.
Fran
Also much more peace and quiet and no loud students.
Alex
Speak for yourself!
*everyone laughs*
Lucy
[Observing the room] There’s a weird feeling in here, don’t you think?
Fran
You’re only saying that because it’s an old house. It’s not like it’s
haunted or anything!

3. Alex
Yeah Lucy, it’s just weird because we’ve never been here before but
we’ll settle in soon, you’ll see.
Lucy
[Unconvinced] I guess…
The girls continue unpacking to settle into their new home. Lucy moves
towards the window with boxes to put some items away. As she looks up
through the window, she can see a figure of a mysterious man on the
other side of the road staring into the house. She is speechless but carries
on looking back at him, fearful. The other girls continue unpacking.
Someone knocks on the door startling Lucy and forcing her to look away
from the window and away from the man. By the time she looks back
through the window, he is gone.
As Lucy walks towards the door, she walks past the window. Unknown to
her, the mysterious man is right against the window watching Lucy as
she walks away. She gets to the door, meeting Alex and Fran there. They
open the door to find Rosie, a next-door neighbour. Lucy runs out and
starts looking around for the man.
Rosie
Aww, hi! I’m Rosie, I live next door. I just wanted to welcome you to the
house.
Fran
I’m Fran, this is Lucy and Alex. We just moved here today.
Lucy
[Looking around] Where is he?
Alex
[Confused] Who?
Lucy
That man. He right over there [points in the direction of the man]. I saw
him. He was looking right at me!

4. Fran
Lucy, there’s no one there. What are you going on about?
Lucy
[Confused] B-but I saw him!
Fran and Alex look at each other with confused expressions because of
what Lucy is saying. Rosie walks over to Lucy and puts her hand on her
shoulder. Lucy jumps.
Rosie
Are you okay?
Lucy turns around to look at Rosie but sees the mysterious figure over
Rosie’s shoulder. She screams. The screen goes to black.
