JOHN ...like a museum of the occult. John spots lockers. His eyes widen. Each locker labeled with initials. John touches the name plate of one H.E.W.. JOHN H.E.W. Henry Eric Winchester. This was my Dad’s locker. There’s a padlock on it. He grabs it and spins the lock. MARY Let me find something to pry it open -- CLICK! The padlock opens. Mary raises an eyebrow. JOHN We had a lock just like it on our shed. Combo is a family joke. John opens the locker. Inside he finds his father’s things. Glasses. A notebook. Clothes. A treasure trove. John can’t believe it. Monsters are real and his Dad knew about them? JOHN

And it turns out the truth was here. Right in front of me all along.
Mary clocks how much this means to John. A brief flash of feeling for the guy. But she presses on, searching the room until she discovers... a box just like she and Samuel found.
