MOVING UP behind the kids, we find ourselves at the gatesof... EXT. A CREEPY OLD HOUSE - NIGHT ADULT EDWARD (V.O.) Now, it’s common knowledge that mosttowns of a certain size have a witch, if only to eat misbehaving children andthe occasional puppy who wanders intoher yard. Witches use those bones to cast spells and curses that make theland infertile.
13.
We PULL BACK, and BACK, revealing more of the Gothicallycreepy house: its broken windows, strangling vines, andeerie gargoyles half-buried in the dirt. Even bats are afraid to fly over it.
In the moonlight, the house is especially sinister. Who knows what is lurking in the shadows?
ADULT EDWARD (V.O.)(cont’d) Yet of the all the witches in Alabama, there was one who was the most feared.
For she had one glass eye, which wassaid to contain mystical powers.
We finally come to the kids, staring in through the gate.

EDWARD:
That’s bull-s-h-i-t, that is. She’s not even a real witch.
