Foster Lambert: I'm scared, Mom.
Renai Lambert: Scared of what?
Foster Lambert: Dalton. Can I change rooms?
Renai Lambert: Why would you want to change rooms?
Foster Lambert: I don't like when he walks around at night.
Lorraine Lambert: I came today because last night I had a dream about this place. I was in this house, but it was late at night. I was afraid. I went into your bedroom, but you were both asleep. I knew I was asleep in the dream, but I could feel that someone was awake in the house. I went into Dalton's room. There was something in there with him. It was standing there in the
corner. I asked it "Who are you?" and it said it was a visitor. I said "What do you want?". It said Dalton. I can still hear that voice.
Lorraine Lambert: The reason I knew to call Elise in this situation, the reason I know her so well, is because I called her myself once, years ago, to help you.
Josh Lambert: What are you talking about, Mom?
Elise Reiner: It's no accident that your son is a gifted traveler. The ability was handed down to him.
Lorraine
Lambert: By his father.
Renai Lambert: I'm scared. I'm so scared and...
Josh Lambert: I'm scared. He's my son, too.
Renai Lambert: You don't understand. I'm scared for Dalton. I'm scared of this house. There's something wrong with this place. I'm not imagining it. I can feel it. It's... it's like a sickness. Ever since we've moved in, everything's just gone
wrong.
Josh Lambert: You think our house is haunted?
Renai Lambert: I don't think it. I know it. Things move around in here by themselves. I walk into the kitchen at night to get a drink, I can feel eyes on me.
Josh Lambert: [to Dalton] You may be a superhero, buddy, but you're not invincible.
Josh Lambert: Who is she?
Elise Reiner: A parasite. She befriended your astral body and lured you into the Further just as Dalton has been.
Elise Reiner: Close your eyes, Josh. Take a deep breath and relax. With each breath, let the life around you fade into the background. Just listen to the ticking of the metronome. Focus on the spot in the center of your forehead. The universe is deathless. It is deathless because having no finite self, it stays infinite. A sound man, by not advancing himself, stays the further
ahead of himself.
Elise Reiner: The Further is a world far beyond our own, yet it's all around us. A place without time as we know it. It's a dark realm filled with the tortured souls of the dead. A place not meant for the living. That's where Dalton is. And the problem is that with his astral body gone, he's just left us with a physical body, an empty vessel. And there are entities that know this
because they can smell it. That's why they've gathered around him.
Renai Lambert: Are these the things that I've been seeing?
[Elise nods]
Elise Reiner: They're all trying to get inside his physical body simply because they... they crave life; the chance to live again. But there are other entities who are malevolent and have a more insidious
agenda. And then there's this...
[Elise shows a drawing of Lipstick-Face Demon]
Elise Reiner: A demon who seeks Dalton's body for one reason - to cause pain to others.
Specs: You must be Josh.
Josh Lambert: Yeah. Hi.
Specs: That wasn't psychic. Elise already told me your name so...
Renai Lambert: Where is Elise?
Specs: She sent us ahead to do some preliminary tests.
Tucker: [eating a hot pocket] Helps weed out the nut jobs.
Elise Reiner: Have you ever heard of astral projection?
Renai Lambert: Yes. It's out of body experience or something?
Elise Reiner: I like to call them travelers. You see, these are people with the ability to leave their physical body and to travel to different places in astral form. Now, Dalton; he is a very accomplished astral
projector. He's been doing it in his sleep for a long time. He has been since he was very young. And he's unafraid because he thinks they're dreams. And it's that very lack of fear that has led him to travel too far. And to become lost.
