People where dying left and right. Maxwell, Sara, Mr Adamson. These murders didn't seem connected like the murders 15 years ago. This killer wants everyone dead.

James had locked himself in his room, not a good idea.

Vincent and Mr Appleton had gone to the sitting room to try and contact police with the phone. But the line was dead.

Mrs Greyson and Sally carried Maxwell's body to the freezer. Mr Greyson and Miss Pinkerton carried Mr Adamson's body to the freezer. Ms Sylvester and Jack-Earl took Sara's body to the freezer.

Sally had went to prepare dinner, not that anyone was hungry. Jack-Earl went to see James. James made it clear he was not coming out until the morning, and no-one should disturb him until then. Jack-Earl gave James a revolver for protection and James locked the door once Jack-Earl had left.

A storm was approaching. The lights began to flicker and then finally went out.

There was a scream, followed by another scream. The lights still did not turn on. Jack-Earl made his way to the kitchen where he knew Sally would be. Sally was in the kitchen barely conscious. She said someone had hit her with a blunt object. She knew it was a woman, because on her fall, she pulled the woman's hair and the woman yelped out a scream.

A gunshot goes off, and then another. A window then is smashed.

The lights finally flicker back on. Vincent runs in. He urged Sally and Jack-Earl to follow him.

Sally and Jack-Earl are faced with a gruesome discovery. Mr and Mrs Greyson had been shot, and were lying dead in a pool of blood.

The remaining guests gather in the dining room.

Vincent, Ms Sylvester, Mr Appleton and Miss Pinkerton. James was still sequestered away from the others. Jack-Earl admits he gaves James a gun. Vincent and Mr Appleton then agree to go and confront James. Jack-Earl was to go with them too. The girls were to bring the bodies of Mr and Mrs Greyson to the freezer.

Vincent, Mr Appleton and Jack-Earl open James' door and see him holding a gun to his head.

Jack-Earl pressured James to put down the gun. James admitting to killing Mr and Mrs Greyson, because they had killed Maxwell. James shared that he and Maxwell were lovers, Mr and Mrs Greyson weren't happy at all when the discovered the relationship and killed Maxwell. James then fired the bullet. Instantly killing himself.

Mr Appleton and Vincent carried James' body to the freezer. Sally was clearly upset. She blamed Jack-Earl for giving James the gun.

They concluded that Mr and Mrs Greyson must have been the killers, but when they do, the lights go off again. Someone is stabbed. The lights go on.

Mr Appleton had been stabbed in the back and was lying on the floor.

This is when Sally and Jack-Earl realised, that either Miss Pinkerton or Ms Sylvester was the killer.
