Thriller Script

Reading out of the letter at the start whilst the typewriter is going on:

'Nocton Hall was home to 1300 U.S staff and 35 Casualties from World War 2 it however sadly burnt down in 1841.

11 lives were lost within the burning rubble of the hall.

It was rumoured that Cpt. Thomas Johnson luckily escaped the fire, having to leave his only child, Benjamin Johnson.

The body was never found...

To this day locals report music being played from the building, even though the remains of the building has been abandoned for 178 years.

Sincerely,

William T. Turner"

 

 Then as Jake turns the music off we considered whether or not he should say anything, we then realised that without any dialogue it would help build the tension in the opening scene.
