# Summary

William, home alone, answers his ringing phone. The woman on the other end was his aunt Shelly Laskey. He informs shelly that his friend Anthony is coming over around the same time she is coming over to his house. Shelly thinks it will be nice to have Anthony over and tells William that she will be over in five minutes.

William hangs up the phone and Recieved another call promptly after. This time it is from his friend Anthony. Anthony tells William that he is excited to watch the horror movie Scream with him tonight. William asks if he brought Pepsi and Anthony tells him that he forgot, but has coconut milk as a substitute and suggests making homemade frappuccinos and says he will be there in approximately 3 minutes. William hangs up and sees his Annabelle doll laying beside the back door. Suspicious, he picks her up and sets her in his room on a rocking chair. William recieves another call, but this time, it is from Shelly again. Shelly informs him that the traffic was keeping her and she might be a bit late. After William hangs up the phone, he hears a distant scream and opens the kitchen window to try and understand where it came from. He doesn't see anything and a second scream promptly follows the silence. He perceived the scream to be coming from a different direction, so he checks the front yard. Again, he doesn't see anything. He concludes that the screams must be coming from the neighbors and closes the door. A knock is heard soon after. He opens the door and sees his aunt Shelly. They talk for a good 5 minutes. After that, William is getting coconut milk for himself, because he discovered that he already had coconut milk. Shelly questions what it is. He says that it is "Milk" and does not specify what type of milk it was. The third and final scream is heard shortly after. Shelly questions what it was and William told her that it was the neighbors acting up. He checks the front door anyway out of general curiosity. He still sees nobody outside. William thought it was strange and Shelly agreed. Shelly proceeded to drink the coconut milk and began being possessed. Shelly was flung on the floor and swept into the garage by a force of evil.

William, frightened, runs into the garage in an attempt to help Shelly. Shelly is being flung into various shelves and walls. Shelly discovers a Ouija board and takes it. William tells her not to touch it, because it is evil. Shelly does not abide and she begins to use the Ouija board. William goes to slap Shelly and she releases a demon roar and flings William to the garage door, pinning him to it. Her irises turned a solid white and started speaking in a demonic voice. She told him to never interrupt her Ouija board session. Shortly after, her eyes turned back to normal and so did her voice. Shelly proceeds to summon an entity named Rachel Carr. William manages to unpin himself from the garage door. William proceeds to take a steak knife and tells himself that she has gone mad and that he will have to kill her. A possessed Shelly tells him that she heard him the entire time and that it would be more entertaining to chase him. She tells him that they will play hide and seek, he'll go hide and she'll come look for him. William is unwilling, but Shelly proceeds to count to thirty anyway. William hides in a dark nook with one source of light, which was a vent that led outside. William puts a crate in front of the opening so she would not see him. After Shelly is done counting, she has trouble finding him. William looks out of the vent and sees his grandmother, Jennie, whom he calls "Nama". William pleaded for help, but was interrupted by the sound of a disc falling behind him. He looks and sees his Annabelle doll. He looks at it and Shelly moves the crate, finding him. She grabs his leg and pulls him from the opening. She pulls out a knife and before she could stab him, he punches her and she flies backward. William uses this time to run out of the garage and open the front door, but to no avail. The front door was wedged, so he opted for the back door. William carefully closes the door and starts to cry. When he opens his eyes, he discovers Anthony's corpse in front of him. He was bound to a chair and gutted. William watched in horror as his guts fell victim to gravity and hung from his abdomen. William is beyond terrified and grief stricken.

He hears Shelly once more. She threatens William that she will "get him like how she got Anthony." William bolts for the side door that leads into the garage. In the garage, he grabs his steak knife and his Annabelle doll. He carefully walks out the same door and closes it. He checks the kitchen window and sees Shelly trying to find him. He ducks under the window and sees his grandmother's car driving up from a distance. He looks at the window again and Shelly quickly turns around and grabs his arm with the knife, breaking the window in the process. William hits Shelly with the doll and she flies backward. William drops the knife and bolts back to the backyard and then to the sideyard on the other side of the house. He sees his grandmother's car pulling up closer. Shelly jumps out of the window beside him and throws him to the ground. William quickly jumps up and tries to run away, but Shelly quickly catches up and stabs him in his shoulder.

William falls on the ground and Shelly starts to choke him. William, with the last bit of strength he has, kicks Shelly and sends her flying backwards. William hears his grandmother and his uncle Ryan get out of the car. He tries to scream "Nama", but to no avail. Shelly had damaged his vocal cords. That was the last he would ever see of them. Ryan notices that something is off in the house. William is thrown to the ground and gives up. Shelly stabs him again and again. His grandmother Jennie is getting very concerned, so she calls him. She hears him dying and the phone hangs up after. Ryan tells her to drive down to the Farnsworths and to call the police. Jennie walks out the front door and screams upon witnessing William's gutted corpse hanging from a tree.
