00:01:03 In the early '30s,
00:01:04 Adolf Hitler and his inner circle
00:01:09 believing that the black arts were key
00:01:13 Nazi agents travelled the globe
00:01:14 in search of ancient Nordic relics
00:01:18 They believed if they harnessed
00:01:21 nothing could stop the march
00:01:25 The symbols inscribed in these stones
00:01:31 ...to immortality.
00:02:35 ''Dear Mr. Wollner,
00:02:37 I write you on behalf
00:02:41 researching Germany's heritage
00:02:47 We chose your family
00:02:53 We ask you to consider
00:02:58 as he conducts work in your region.
00:03:01 He requires only a private room
00:03:03 and modest accommodations
00:03:06 A gratuity will be provided
00:03:11 Find enclosed an advance
00:03:14 $150.
00:03:18 I think we should discuss.
00:03:23 $150, Mama.
00:04:13 Liese!
00:04:42 Who's there?
00:05:07 Liese, we will clear the table now.
00:05:26 Annaliese.
00:05:28 Yes.
00:05:30 She goes to school where she must.
00:05:31 All of us practice.
00:05:33 And for in town when we go to sell.
00:05:37 Naturally.
00:05:39 Forgive me.
00:05:40 I'm old-fashioned now.
00:05:42 At any rate, l needn't bother.
00:05:44 The whole world will speak German
00:05:47 We were told you were a historian.
00:05:51 Yes.
00:05:54 Did you know...
00:05:56 our Viking ancestors
00:05:57 discovered this land?
00:06:00 Columbus was, of course, a fraud.
00:06:03 Finlandic parties
00:06:06 300 years before the Spanish arrived.
00:06:09 They were repelled by Indians,
00:06:10 but they left their rune stones behind.
00:06:14 Like the ancient stone you dug up
00:06:19 How did you know that?
00:06:24 What became of the stone?
00:06:26 We used it in the foundation
00:06:28 It's in the root cellar.
00:06:30 We faced it inward. You can still see it.
00:06:34 How forward-thinking of you.
00:06:37 We should have asked more questions.
00:06:40 We can ask in the morning.
00:06:44 I mean, weeks ago.
00:07:45 Show me the stone.
00:08:09 They were here.
00:08:13 The Nordic gods.
00:08:14 Our ancestors.
00:08:18 Don't cry.
00:08:20 Bring her here to me.
00:08:22 They tell me you're in school.
00:08:25 You like to study, then.
00:08:27 Find things.
00:08:29 Challenge your mind.
00:08:30 Study this.
00:09:07 Look at your birdie now.
00:09:12 See? She's winking at you.
00:09:17 And with practice,
00:09:19 I will be able to make
00:09:25 That's all I can do for now.
00:09:29 But I have my books.
00:09:31 I have time.
00:09:33 I have this stone.
00:09:43 Those who came before rule the blood.
00:09:49 And when you rule the blood,
00:09:55 You love your family, yes?
00:09:58 You'd do anything for them.
00:10:01 Don't want them to end up
00:10:09 You'll be a good little helper.
00:10:15 Your part will hurt
00:10:30 Airways are clear.
00:10:32 - Can you hear me?
00:10:35 Sir, can you hear me?
00:10:36 Look at me, sir.
00:10:37 - Put the gun down.
00:10:39 Sir, can you hear me?
00:10:41 Can you hear me, sir?
00:10:42 Don't go to sleep.
00:10:45 - Calm down.
00:10:46 Put your gun on the ground.
00:10:47 Put your gun on the ground, ma'am.
00:10:49 Coronary!
00:10:50 Here, look at me, ma'am.
00:10:52 Put your gun on the ground.
00:10:54 - Larry, open that compress.
00:10:57 Larry! Come on, get it open!
00:11:00 Larry, put pressure on that.
00:11:03 Put your gun on the ground!
00:11:05 Sir, look at me.
00:11:07 We're losing him.
00:11:09 Look here, ma'am.
00:11:11 Nobody will hurt you. Look at me.
00:11:12 Larry, we lost him.
00:11:13 Just put the gun down.
00:11:14 Put it down.
00:11:17 Look at me, ma'am.
00:11:20 They're cooking meth
00:11:27 Is everyone okay?
00:12:15 Is that tank turned off?
00:12:18 I know who you are.
00:12:20 Somebody out in the yard?
00:12:22 I heard somebody.
00:12:24 You bring the boys over?
00:12:26 The boys are at home with Barb.
00:12:28 What are you doing?
00:12:29 Just trying to help, Dad.
00:12:30 If you want to help, rake the yard.
00:12:32 It looks like shit.
00:12:33 Just finished a 15-hour shift, Dad.
00:12:35 Don't worry.
00:12:37 Your brother will do it. Is he with you?
00:12:39 Dad? He's been gone two years.
00:12:42 He's back from Iraq. I saw him.
00:12:46 It ain't easy.
00:12:48 I know, Dad.
00:12:51 What do you know?
00:12:54 Your brother had to go
00:12:56 You weren't in Iraq, were you?
00:12:58 He comes home a hero.
00:13:00 You take him fishing
00:13:02 his family never sees him again.
00:13:04 Why didn't you save your brother?
00:13:10 - I'll make your dinner.
00:13:12 you put up a stone for him
00:13:13 - I did tell you, Dad.
00:13:18 I should have been there for that.
00:13:21 We all should have
00:13:23 What the hell do you think
00:13:25 I’m hanging around here for, you?
00:13:26 You don't tell your father shit.
00:13:30 I took you to the ceremony myself.
00:14:05 - Yeah.
00:14:06 Uncle Evan, you forgot.
00:14:09 It’s almost dark out.
00:14:10 - You promised.
00:14:13 Hey.
00:14:14 So you think I forgot?
00:14:16 Well, I’m on my way.
00:14:30 Trick or treat!
00:14:32 Thank you!
00:15:08 Guys, come on.
00:15:11 Didn't plan on it, Barb.
00:15:13 You know how I feel about it.
00:15:15 I just thought the boys
00:15:17 But he's not there. He's missing.
00:15:19 Why do you keep trying to bury him?
00:15:22 It just seemed like it was time
00:15:24 It’s not yours to make.
00:15:30 I’m sorry.
00:15:35 Don't make these boys give up hope.
00:15:37 It’s all they have.
00:15:39 It’s cruel, okay?
00:15:42 We're all just living on hope and faith.
00:15:44 If I could go back there
00:15:47 I would in a minute.
00:15:50 I need you to know that.
00:15:51 I know.
00:15:57 Good night.
00:16:04 ...and Jefferson County
00:16:06 with temperatures
00:16:08 The wet weather should
00:16:10 despite cloudy conditions.
00:16:12 West Virginians may be in store
00:16:14 the first lunar eclipse of the year.
00:16:17 So step outside tomorrow night
00:16:19 and head down
00:16:21 which will be holding a public star party
00:16:23 on the grounds
00:16:43 Evan, wake up.
00:16:44 Evan.
00:16:46 Evan, wake up.
00:16:47 Evan.
00:16:48 Evan, wake up.
00:16:49 Evan, wake up!
00:16:54 Evan!
00:16:56 Help me!
00:16:57 Vic, where are you?
00:16:59 Evan!
00:17:00 He comes home a hero.
00:17:02 You take him fishing up near Town Creek,
00:17:04 his family never sees him again.
00:17:06 Why didn't you save your brother?
00:17:08 Evan, help me!
00:17:10 Vic!
00:17:11 Victor, I can't find you!
00:17:13 Help me, Evan!
00:17:17 Evan!
00:17:23 Evan, wake up.
00:17:25 Wake up.
00:17:26 Evan, wake up.
00:17:28 It’s me. Wake up.
00:17:29 Evan, wake up.
00:17:31 It’s me, Victor.
00:17:35 It’s me. It’s me.
00:17:41 Who?
00:17:48 I need your help tonight.
00:17:49 I need your help. No questions.
00:17:53 Load the boat on the truck
00:17:54 and bring enough gear
00:17:55 Bring the guns
00:17:57 - Why?
00:17:58 No one's to know I’m back
00:18:01 - Barbara and the boys-
00:18:03 I said no one.
00:18:04 Now hurry.
00:18:06 Wait. No. Let me check you out.
00:18:08 - Go.
00:18:09 Go.
00:18:10 They know I've gone by now.
00:18:11 Who? Vic, who knows you're gone?
00:18:13 Go.
00:18:18 Just hurry.
00:19:26 Evan, what's up, buddy?
00:19:27 I need you to come over right now
00:19:30 Sure.
00:19:31 For how long?
00:19:43 Let's go.
00:19:50 Head to Town Creek.
00:19:54 Are we going after somebody?
00:19:59 To shoot?
00:20:13 You want out of this,
00:20:15 you tell me now
00:20:18 You do this with me,
00:20:20 You'll never be the same.
00:20:23 It wouldn't be right
00:20:26 It’s your call.
00:20:35 Let's go.
00:21:47 I haven't been here
00:21:49 since I came back
00:21:51 This where you ended up?
00:21:53 That night, you see anything?
00:21:55 I didn't know if you were
00:21:57 I did call it out.
00:21:58 Doesn't matter.
00:22:00 No. I want you to know I tried.
00:22:02 We got an hour or two
00:22:05 We searched every inch of ground
00:22:08 Well, you missed me.
00:22:37 Okay. Keep it quiet. There's a dog.
00:23:23 The father is leaving.
00:23:27 Are you ready to do this?
00:23:30 You didn't say anything
00:23:32 You want to worry about a family,
00:23:34 worry about ours.
00:23:36 You got to give me some kind of reason.
00:23:44 I’m the reason.
00:24:18 You okay?
00:24:19 All right, I’m going in.
00:24:21 The minute they see me,
00:24:23 I want you to cover the back porch.
00:24:25 Okay? You got it?
00:24:27 All right. Come on.
00:26:17 Where is he?
00:26:53 Evan, shoot!
00:27:15 - Vic!
00:27:18 Watch her.
00:27:20 There's a girl upstairs.
00:27:21 Liese, run!
00:27:22 Run, Liese!
00:27:24 Liese, run!
00:28:27 It’s okay. Don't be scared.
00:28:30 Just hide.
00:28:32 I’ll go calm him down.
00:28:52 Where is he?
00:28:53 Fuck! Vic, put the gun down!
00:28:54 Where is he?
00:28:59 Out front!
00:29:02 Run, Liese! Run!
00:29:09 Do it!
00:29:11 Get her inside.
00:29:13 Where is he?
00:29:22 - Karl!
00:29:23 If you're going to kill him, then kill him.
00:29:25 Try to be quiet now.
00:29:27 Go to hell.
00:30:53 Why did you come here?
00:30:56 We're all going to pay for this now.
00:31:01 You saw everything,
00:31:03 Don't you touch her.
00:31:05 Shut her up!
00:31:10 Every time you stood at this sink
00:31:11 and looked out
00:31:13 you knew, and you did nothing!
00:31:17 - Nothing!
00:31:18 Why would these people
00:31:20 Dinner time, Liese.
00:31:24 He'll wonder why no one comes.
00:31:30 Where is he?
00:31:32 Jesus! Vic! Stop it!
00:31:35 This is my family.
00:31:37 My brother.
00:31:39 You have no idea
00:31:43 Tonight we'll see him weeping, too.
00:31:47 Tie them up.
00:31:49 What's in the container?
00:31:50 Just tie them up!
00:31:51 Stop ordering me around
00:31:54 These people took
00:31:57 My life.
00:32:03 You want to get sympathetic, Evan?
00:32:04 Don't shoot someone in the stomach.
00:32:06 It hurts like hell,
00:32:09 Go tie them up.
00:33:02 What is in that black container?
00:33:08 Look, I’m not here to hurt you.
00:33:11 I’ll figure this out.
00:33:47 This is his doing.
00:33:53 Time doesn't touch us.
00:33:59 You're lying.
00:34:07 I’ve been 17 longer
00:34:19 What's in that container?
00:34:31 What you got today, Mr. Wollner?
00:34:32 Five crates.
00:34:33 Yeah, we can do that.
00:34:36 Cash or trade?
00:34:38 Trade.
00:34:42 I don't know how you keep it running,
00:34:50 What's she, about 1929?
00:34:55 1930, maybe?
00:35:39 Evan! Evan!
00:35:41 You got no reason to look in there.
00:35:45 I thought you were the reason.
00:35:48 Don't.
00:36:28 It’s okay. I’m not with them.
00:36:30 I’m getting you out of here.
00:36:33 My name is Evan Marsh.
00:36:35 Look, man, they...
00:36:38 they jumped me in the woods
00:36:41 I think I saw your wife and kids
00:36:43 It’s okay. I got you now.
00:36:45 Just do it.
00:36:46 Look, I can't do it with my hands.
00:36:48 - Be right back.
00:36:50 Hurry.
00:36:54 Hurry.
00:37:12 Take him down the river to Paw Paw.
00:37:13 Call an ambulance from there.
00:37:15 We can take him with us
00:37:16 - We're going now.
00:37:18 We ain't gonna leave him
00:37:20 We could do this.
00:37:22 You inside, me in the yard.
00:37:23 He doesn't need to be
00:37:24 That man's got family somewhere.
00:37:26 All those times you asked me
00:37:27 what it was like-
00:37:28 Don't throw that goddamn war at me.
00:37:30 I said I was gonna enlist.
00:37:32 And I had to stay here
00:37:34 and have him tell me
00:37:36 I signed up because I thought
00:37:39 And I couldn't?
00:37:40 You here are killing
00:37:43 Oh, yeah, big fucking war hero.
00:37:47 You ever stop to think
00:37:51 That's all I ever think about!
00:37:52 That's why I’m here!
00:37:54 Now we're gonna cut
00:37:56 take him in the house
00:37:57 and take care of this!
00:38:00 Then take you back to your boys.
00:38:06 Don't forget about your boys, Vic.
00:39:41 Someone's coming!
00:39:53 Hurry. We got to hurry.
00:39:55 - He's coming.
00:40:22 Put him inside.
00:41:18 Get up!
00:41:21 Where the hell is he?
00:41:23 Where is he?
00:41:27 What have you done to my son?
00:41:30 Where's the rest of my family?
00:41:31 Where the hell is he?
00:41:35 You don't know what you've done.
00:41:36 You must go!
00:41:37 Go now, while there's still time!
00:42:01 Your bullets won't hurt him!
00:42:03 Run!
00:42:06 He can't come into the house!
00:42:11 He's out!
00:42:55 Where the hell is it?
00:42:57 He can't come in!
00:43:02 I’m going to keep him tied-
00:43:43 He can't come into the house.
00:43:44 He's barred.
00:43:45 What do you mean, barred?
00:43:46 He can't come in.
00:43:48 The painting on the doors
00:44:22 What is that out there?
00:44:23 Wirth- Richard Wirth.
00:45:26 The door! Get the door!
00:45:36 What the hell are you doing?
00:45:38 The window.
00:45:40 He can come in through the window.
00:45:43 Come on.
00:45:46 This rune is the only reason
00:46:03 Come on!
00:46:08 - You got it?
00:46:13 Fuck!
00:46:19 He can be controlled.
00:46:22 Somewhat.
00:46:24 We know some things.
00:46:27 Maybe enough.
00:46:55 The Nazis sent him.
00:46:58 It was 1936.
00:47:00 We thought Wirth was a scholar,
00:47:04 but he was here
00:47:06 Rune stones.
00:47:08 Blood rituals.
00:47:10 We didn't know.
00:47:12 And then the war started,
00:47:16 So we imprisoned him.
00:47:17 Liese did.
00:47:19 She put runes around the yard.
00:47:21 The symbols on the fences
00:47:22 keep him on the farm
00:47:24 She was only 12 at the time.
00:47:26 Five years passed.
00:47:28 But by then,
00:47:32 Just tell me how to kill him.
00:47:34 Take your brother and leave now.
00:47:36 If you can make it outside
00:47:40 We'll take you with us.
00:47:42 No. We have to stay.
00:47:45 We let him into our lives.
00:47:47 We can't leave here.
00:48:38 Evan!
00:49:55 No.
00:51:56 Where's my father? Where's Karl?
00:51:58 They're dead.
00:51:59 They're lucky.
00:52:01 They're free now.
00:52:04 She's having trouble breathing.
00:52:05 Does she take any medicine
00:52:07 - Do you have any aspirin?
00:52:15 - What the fuck are you doing?
00:52:16 - That woman needs help now.
00:52:45 Run!
00:53:06 Here, chew these. It'll help.
00:53:21 He's killed the generator.
00:53:23 Guns.
00:53:28 - How do I kill him?
00:53:29 - I'm trying to save our lives.
00:53:31 Either way, we all die.
00:53:34 You're not the only one who's suffered.
00:53:45 He started with me.
00:54:07 I was 12 when he came to our farm.
00:54:09 That's when he first fed on me.
00:54:11 When my brother saw
00:54:13 he tried to kill Wirth,
00:54:17 He was already too strong.
00:54:20 All he could do was take my place.
00:54:23 He gave his own blood for a while.
00:54:26 Wirth, he almost killed us,
00:54:28 but he needed our help,
00:54:29 so he froze us in time like this.
00:54:31 I think it was the fifth year.
00:54:34 A vagrant who came here
00:54:37 We'd put him up in the trailer.
00:54:39 First victim?
00:54:40 We were also victims.
00:54:46 Over the years, I've stolen
00:54:48 Everything I’ve learned,
00:54:54 At first, my father thought
00:54:58 But I’ve seen what he can do.
00:55:00 At first, he raised small things.
00:55:02 My bird, the pigs, dogs.
00:55:05 He'd kill them
00:55:07 But he needed blood for the ritual.
00:55:09 Human blood.
00:55:11 Blood of the living.
00:55:13 What happened to the poor fucks
00:55:17 What happened to them?
00:55:19 A few have died, yes.
00:55:22 But to save how many?
00:55:24 You've seen what he can do.
00:55:25 Can you imagine if he got out?
00:55:27 We had him contained
00:55:31 The next time he kills,
00:55:35 He's barred from the house. We'll just
00:55:37 We'll starve well before he will.
00:55:46 He's going back to his pit. Let's go.
00:55:48 Wait. He's going back to the stone.
00:55:50 It gives him more strength.
00:56:40 You said you contained him. How?
00:56:42 The runes. Like the windows.
00:56:45 We painted barring runes
00:56:47 Okay, now, what are the runes?
00:56:49 Ancient Nordic alphabet.
00:56:51 He believes he's descended
00:56:53 We gave him blood,
00:56:58 Once it ends, no one
00:57:01 - How does it end?
00:57:04 are a few drawings in this book.
00:57:06 But I do know this
00:57:08 This. This drawing right here.
00:57:10 - This is what he's after.
00:57:13 A third eye.
00:57:15 The members of Hitler's
00:57:17 thought you could
00:57:20 It's released during a lunar eclipse,
00:57:22 making you all powerful.
00:57:24 I don't know what it will be exactly,
00:57:26 but I do know he needs blood,
00:57:30 Just not his own.
00:57:32 Once his third eye is released,
00:57:36 Nothing will be able to contain him,
00:57:37 not even the runes.
00:57:39 How do you stop him
00:57:41 There has to be a way.
00:57:42 The bones.
00:57:50 The bones.
00:57:56 Maybe.
00:58:02 But someone
00:58:20 He brought his ancestors'
00:58:22 and made them into a kind of armor.
00:58:24 He wore it at rituals until I stole it.
00:58:26 Yeah, I’ve seen it.
00:58:28 In those bones
00:58:30 He can't trace or hunt against them.
00:58:32 And after I put it on?
00:58:34 You need to break the link
00:58:36 If you can keep him
00:58:38 maybe you can stop him
00:58:40 Just get him in the front yard.
00:59:16 Hey, Wirth, your books!
00:59:28 Come on, you fuck!
01:00:08 Run!
01:00:37 - Shoot him!
01:00:39 Not Wirth.
01:00:47 Do it, or I'll do it!
01:01:06 Now you're like us.
01:02:06 It’s begun.
01:02:57 Luke?
01:03:13 I need you to help me.
01:03:21 Can you do that?
01:03:25 I need you to put me somewhere...
01:03:29 where I can't hurt you.
01:03:37 Just do it.
01:03:48 My family, my children.
01:03:51 My family, they're gonna come
01:03:54 They will, won't they?
01:04:04 Evan, open the door!
01:04:16 That's mine.
01:04:18 I'm gonna kill you.
01:04:20 No.
01:04:21 You're going to feed me.
01:04:27 I've known men like you all my life.
01:04:30 Tiny men with your tiny ambitions.
01:04:33 Kill the enemy.
01:04:37 You all end up the same-
01:04:40 making death with your own hands
01:07:51 Evan, get the bones!
01:08:38 You said Wirth can't drink
01:08:40 Yes.
01:08:41 Give me your scarf.
01:08:44 After dark, we'd prepare
01:08:47 make the incision,
01:08:49 then I'd ring the bell.
01:08:51 My father would put on the bone tunic,
01:08:53 open the cellar, and let him out.
01:08:55 Who made the incisions?
01:08:58 They had to be done
01:09:01 You did it.
01:09:08 You're gonna have to do
01:09:13 Please, no. I can't.
01:09:15 Yes, you can.
01:09:20 We do this.
01:09:22 We poison him with the blood
01:09:29 Come on. Let's go.
01:09:32 Don't go.
01:09:36 Love you.
01:10:19 You ever wonder
01:10:27 The only one after all these years.
01:10:32 Very simple.
01:10:34 I let you.
01:10:37 I could feel your hatred.
01:10:39 I knew you'd come back.
01:10:46 Tonight, we'll make this possible.
01:10:49 You released me from the family.
01:11:16 Blood is blood, right?
01:11:20 Do it.
01:11:26 Finish it.
01:11:37 Now ring the bell.
01:11:39 It’s not finished.
01:11:47 It will protect you.
01:11:49 Otherwise he'd bleed you dry in no time.
01:11:52 Go.
01:11:55 Go.
01:13:57 Wirth!
01:14:07 Your reward for helping me-
01:14:10 you get to see your brother die.
01:14:12 I’m waiting for you, Wirth!
01:14:23 Evan.
01:14:25 Evan.
01:14:45 Evan! Evan!
01:16:36 You poisoned me!
01:16:48 This is our time.
01:16:51 Should have happened long ago.
01:16:55 When Mr. Wirth come in now.
01:17:39 Wirth!
01:17:53 Wirth!
01:19:11 Liese!
01:19:32 Liese!
01:19:46 Liese?
01:20:27 Himmler sent eight others like Wirth
01:20:31 to other families, other farms
01:20:35 where ancient rune stones
01:20:50 I was expecting this.
01:20:56 All those years,
01:20:58 all at once, like an avalanche.
01:21:03 Well, what can I do?
01:21:06 Stay with me until it's over.
01:21:22 Don't hate us.
01:22:23 Okay, here are more buns.
01:22:26 Here's the mustard.
01:22:28 Mustard?
01:22:40 Hey, baby.
01:22:41 You okay?
01:22:43 Yeah.
01:22:46 I’ll be right there.
01:22:55 Himmler sent eight others like Wirth
01:22:59 to other families, other farms
01:23:02 where ancient rune stones
01:24:10 In the early '30s,
01:24:11 Adolf Hitler and his inner circle
01:24:16 believing that the black arts were key
01:24:21 Nazi agents travelled the globe in search
01:24:23 of ancient Nordic relics
01:24:27 They believed if they harnessed
01:24:31 nothing could stop the march
01:24:35 The symbols inscribed in these stones
01:24:37 were said to describe the path
