*****************************************************
[EXT. � Schoolyard � Day]

Students are buzzing around heading to class.

[INT. � School/College corridor]

MADISON/DI thrashes through her locker piling books on top
of books.

She slams the locker shut and sprints down the near empty halls. Skidding through the classroom door and closing it behind her.

She falls back with a sigh of relief before looking up to see the class staring at her.

[PAN across class, inc. AISHA, TONY, JONES, SANDY, AMBERLISE & Ms. FRENCH]

MS FRENCH
Nice of you to join us Madison

Madison smiles apologetically. Slipping her glasses up her nose she shuffles to her seat.

MS FRENCH (cont�d)
I trust that everybody that is going on the History Tour has given in all of their details?

Jones raises his hand awkwardly

SANDY
Yo, Jones, this isn�t High School

[Laughter from classroom]

JONES
I.I was just wondering. Do we need jabs?

MS FRENCH
We�re going to Scotland Mr. Street! We do not need jabs.

Class laughs again as he sinks into his seat. He catches the eye of Madison who is staring sympathetically.

MS FRENCH
Seems we�re all organised then! I guess, since it�s the end of the semester we can do a bit of a refresher lesson!

AMBERLISE
Or we could just leave class early, know what I�m sayin�?

AISHA
I here ya girl!

Friendship hands slap/shake

MADISON
I. I think it would b-be helpful

The entire class turns to stare at Madison, she smiles awkwardly.

[CUT TO.]

[INT. MADISONS KITCHEN � DAY]

Madison enters. Her MOTHER is sat on the side.
Madison is mumbling to herself.

MADISON
Oh, Let�s do some more work, that�ll help

MOTHER
You do it again sweetie

She sits down and takes a bite of her Mother sandwich, this is not received well.

MADISON
I need to think before I speak

MOTHER
Oh, Honey. I�m surprise you�re going on this trip.

MADISON
Why wouldn�t I be?

MOTHER
Well, You know

MADISON
No. I really don�t do you want to enlighten me?

Mother can clearly see rage boiling up

MOTHER
It�s just. You were never really popular in High School and then you didn�t do that great in your freshman and sophomore years at College either.

Madison looks down at the floor.

MADISON
Thanks.

Her Mother can see the sadness, she rushes over flamboyantly and wraps her arms round her.

MOTHER
Oh, Maddy, You�ve just got to be less keen. You�re twenty-one and you�re still living at home.

The smile falls from Madison�s face as she moves away from her Mother and walks upstairs.

Mother is left standing looking awkward. She walks over to the cabinet and pours a drink.

[MIX TO.]

[INT. Airport lounge]

Tony is stood with three of his friends, laughing about a girl.

FRIEND#1
She�s so hot.

FRIEND#2
Yeah, I heard that her friend Amberlise, she like totally gets down on the first night.

TONY
No way

FRIEND#1
Way! Adam Blake said this one time when they were freshman he was making out with her at this party and she just went down on him!

TONY
No shit?!

FRIEND#1
No shit!

Aisha is sat across with Amberlise and two other girls. The two groups are in clear sight of eachother.

AMBERLISE
He�s search a prick

AISHA
Who? (mouthful of food)

AMBERLISE
Tony Fucking Street

AISHA
My Tony! (spluttering)

GIRLFRIEND#1
Thanks for the weather report Aisha!

AISHA
Girl you crazy
Aisha playfully slaps her on the arm

AISHA
Why you calling my man words?

AMBERLISE
He ain�t yo� man.

AISHA
Is too (licking fingers)

AMBERLISE
Girl I bet he don�t even know your name

GIRL#2
Have you ever spoken to him?

Aisha turns to girl#2

AISHA
I�ll show you. Watch this.

FRIEND#1
Incoming.

Aisha attempts to be flirtatious as she walks over to Tony and his friends.

AISHA
Hey Tony!

TONY
Hey Felicia.

Aisha does not look amused

AISHA
It�s Aisha!

TONY
Sorry (clutching a football) What?

AISHA
What?

TONY
What did you want?

AISHA
Oh. I was just coming to say, you wanna sit with my on the flight?

TONY
No.

AISHA
Oh.

Aisha starts laughing embarrassingly.
She playfully slaps at his arms.

AISHA
Oh. You thought I was for real! Pffrt Yeah right! No. I was just coming over to �

TONY
To what?

AISHA
To�err�to ask if what language they speak in Scotland!

Everyone laughs. Tony catches a giggling Madison in the corner of his eye and smiles at her. She shyly buries herself in her book.

Aisha slivers back to her seat hiding her face behind her hand.

AMBERLISE
Well, Girl you showed us fo� sure!

AISHA
Shut up!

[CUT TO.]

[INT. PLANE � NIGHT]

JONES
Stop it Jerk Off!

TONY
Make me freak!

JONES
Give me my headphones back!

TONY
Make me!

JONES
Oh, that�s mature!

TONY
Whatever pee-wee

JONES
When we get back, I am so telling Mom

Tony looks at his BROTHER angrily

TONY
Fine. Geez, you�re always whining.

JONES
Am not!

TONY
Are too!

Continue as we move across the plane to �

AISHA
Oooooooh I�m gonna boot!

Amberlise pays little attention

AMBERLISE
That�s nice. Don�t boot on mine unless you want one up your butt.

Aisha grabs a sick bag

Continue as we move across the plane to �

Madison, sitting quietly reading a book.

MS FRENCH
What are you reading?

MADISON
Oh, just a book a-about Banshees

MS FRENCH
Banshees?

MADISON
Yeah, it�s this Scottish myth, that when you hear this old woman calling to you, is when you know you�re gonna die.

MS FRENCH
I know what a Banshee is Madison, I just didn�t think that fantasy was your sort of thing

MADISON
What does that mean?

MS FRENCH
You always seemed more � to the fact � straight up.

Madison arches an eyebrow then continues with her book.

[MIX TO.]

Plane flying through sky at night

[MIX TO.]

[EXT. NIGHT � SCOTLAND � HOUSE]

AMBERLISE
You�re kidding

Everyone looks up at the large, crumbling castle-type building.

AMBERLIES
Nah uh I am not staying up in there!

JONES
You scared?

AMBERLISE
Oh Stand in fertiliser shit breath!

AISHA
Hmm I�m with her. I am not staying no creepy ass castle getting some headless night coming in my room at night.

FRIEND#1
What If I came into your room instead?

AISHA
Okay! I am SO not staying here!

MS FRENCH
Well Ladies, it�s a small town.

AMBERLISE
So?!

MADISON
So you can either stay here or

Madison points to a small broken down motel

MADISON (CONT�D)
There.

The girls look at the motel before rushing into the castle.

[MIX TO.]

[INT. HOUSE � NIGHT]

Madison, Jones, Tony, Aisha, Amberlise and around a dozen other students are sat on the floor of a dark, fire lit room.

The Host/Mythology/History teacher, SCOTT MCQUEEN, is telling the tale of the Banshee, over dramatically at the front of the room.

He paces with a �Tales Of the crypt� pace, big gestures with his hands as he paces the fireplace.

SCOTT
She�d come by your window at night, howling like the most vicious wind, you�d know you were to die before you even saw

Scan room of fearful faces

SCOTT
That�s of course if you were lucky enough to see her coming.

SANDY
What do you mean?

SCOTT
Ahh, well you see, she�s not like these fictional creatures from your shows like the X Files and Barbie the Vampire Killer or whatever. She doesn�t need an invite or a motive.

AMBERLISE
Pffrt, yeah right. It�s one of those Urban Legends and we all know how good that film was

Laughter.

AISHA
Yeah, man you�re story�s whack!

She pauses and looks nervous

AISHA (CONT�D)
Its whack right?

SCOTT
It�s a myth or maybe a Legend I never quite remember. But either way she doesn�t care, she�ll kill you, I wouldn�t beg she�d just go for the slow kill.

JONES (awkward)
So, hypothetically speaking, this Banshee lady tries to kill you, How would you kill her?

Scott walks over to Jones quietly and leans into his ear as if to whisper.

Jones jumps, with the rest of the class as Scott yells

SCOTT
You have to go deaf if you don�t want to hear her!

He steps back to the front of the class and begins to talk in a hypnotically calm voice.

SCOTT
She was defeated once, a young woman in the 1920�s, named Marigold Brubaker, she stabbed herself in the ear until they bled like a shot child! Bittersweet really.

Scott continues to talk in the background as Tony leans into Madison.

TONY
This guys friggin� insane

Madison smiles awkwardly

MADISON
You�re telling me, before the lecture started he was talking to that

Madison indicates the deer head on the wall. The two laugh at eachother.

SCOTT
Rumour has it, she still haunts this village to this very day. So I guess you�re in for a lucky night, you may even spot her if you stay up late enough and look into the hills.

He waits for a reaction, to no avail.

SCOTT
Right, well, Class dismissed.

The class begins to gather up their stuff and head for the door as a crash of thunder echoes through the grounds. The lights go out. Screaming all around which is broken to silence by a howling. Followed by more screaming.

AISHA
Y�all I am not stayin� in Land Crazy for this shit!

AMBERLISE
Girl gets to steppin� I ain�t waiting around to let no crazy ass bitch stab up my be-hind!

The two girls scatter towards the door and fling it open to see a bedraggled woman standing in a black cape. They scream at the top of their lungs as she enters the room.

She steps into the firelight and pulls her hood down, It�s CHANTELLE a local student who works at the pub.

CHANTELLE
Alright! Jesus, I don�t look that bad.

She steps to the mirror

CHANTELLE
Fuck me sideways! How did I get shagged like this?

She turns to Scott

CHANTELLE (CONT�D)
Scott, Daniel says the something with switch has gone and that�s bad for the something with a wire and water?

SCOTT
Right, we really need to get you some lessons on speaking�people

She snorts and salutes him

CHANTELLE
Beam me up Scotty!

Minimal reaction except a small snigger from Jones who shuts up when Sandy nudges him.

CHANTELLE (to self)
Right, British humour

She walks across to the front of the students.

CHANTELLE
Right, come on, I�ll show you where you can stay until the power is fixed

AISHA
Nah ah, I told, I ain�t stayin here

CHANTELLE
Right

Chantelle slips her hands in her pockets and rocks back and forward on her hells

CHANTELLE
Piss off into the rain then

Aisha looks at her blankly

CHANTELLE
Well go on, If you ain�t comin� to stay with us because of some Scottish bollocks you�ve been told about that screaming Banjo

Jones raises his hand like a child

JONES
It�s actually�its Banshee

CHANTELLE
Right, well, I don�t care and I�m tired so those of you who care to join me, join me. The rest of you piss off!

The group looks around at eachother with �she�s crazy� all over their faces. After a moment they shuffle out behind her.

[FADE.]

[VIEW SUNRISE]

[EXT. DAY]

Madison is absent-mindedly walking along a small path. Nervous.

She peers over her shoulder often, with the feeling she is being pursued.

And to the floor she falls as she crashes into DANIEL.

DANIEL
Sorry

He smiles, helping her gather up her stuff.

MADISON
No�It, It was my fault, I�m sorry

DANIEL
Don�t worry about it
(Beat)
You�re not from around her are ya?

She shakes her head

MADISON
Neither are you?

DANIEL
Nah, I�m from down in London. I�m here for some Uni. trip about Myths & Legends, crap like that.

MADISON
Me too
(Pause)
I�m also here for a MAL trip

DANIEL
Who�s Mal?

MADISON
Myths and Legends

Daniel laughs

DANIEL
Right. Daniel by the way

Shakes her hand

MADISON
Madison or Dee.

DANIEL
Well, Dee, It was nice bumping into you, we�ll have to do it again sometime.

He smiles and begins to walk off.

MADISON
Daniel!

He turns to her, leaning against a wall.

MADISON
Where�s the
(Checks map)
Queen�s Legs?

Daniel gestures her other and links her arm.

DANIEL
Shall we?

[INT. PUB � NIGHT]

Tony, Jones, Sandy and three other male students are drinking in the pub.

Music is playing loudly as the place is packed tight.

Chantelle is working behind the bar getting rather frustrated with the demands being thrown at her.

OLD MAN
Alright Princess! Give us a snog!

CHANTELLE
I�d rather give myself a hernia

OLD MAN#2
Playin� hard to get

CHANTELLE
I hardly think so mate, I�m playing �You wish�

OLD MAN
She�s a feisty one

Both men laugh

CHANTELLE
Yes I am! Hey fella�s

She leans over giving them a clear view of her cleavage

CHANTELLE (seductively)
You want a lager on the �ouse?�

They look at eachother smiling

She pours a beer into a mug and hurls it over them.

CHANTELLE
Go On clear off you filthy bastards!

Madison and Daniel quietly approach the bar.

MADISON
So it�s true British people really are hospitable

DANIEL
Telle�s an alright bird, just a bit colourful innit
MADISON
Bird?

DANIEL
Err�Chick?

Madison rolls her eyes

MADISON
So it�s not just American Men.

Chantelle joins in.

CHANTELLE
No Love, it doesn�t matter where you go in the world, they�re all pricks.

DANIEL
I object

MADISON
Well, of course you get the exception

Daniel and Madison smile at eachother as Chantelle looks on in disgust.

CHANTELLE
Shame they�ve not been discovered yet.

Daniel opens his mouth to talk again but is cut off by the grand entrance of Aisha and Amberlise.

AISHA / AMBERLISE
We�re here you can have fun now!

Everyone stops dead.

AMBERLISE
Please, y�all know I�m the life of he party Heeeeeeey!

STUDENT
More the bike of every village

Laughter. Amberlise� face drops before a sarcastic smile.

AISHA (to Amberlise)
Who is that prime British beef talking to Mad-ison?

AMBERLISE
Whoa Baby got back!

Amberlise glides over to them leaving Aisha standing awkwardly waving at people from the doorway.

She slips in between Daniel and Madison. Madison�s face drops at being pushed to the back again.

AMBERLISE
(holding out her hand to be kissed)
Charmed I�m sure

Daniel looks at her like she�s mad and shakes her hand. She looks disgusted.

DANIEL
Hi Charmedaumsure

AMBERLISE (False laughter)
Oh, you English! It�s Amberlise

DANIEL
Right. Well, nice to meet you.

He turns back to Madison. Amberlise jumps straight back between them.

AMBERLISE
I Love the English accent!

DANIEL
Really? Maybe you should go there then

AMBERLISE
I am there

Madison giggles as Chantelle roars with laughter. Amberlise shoots Madison down with a look, which Chantelle picks up on.

CHANTELLE
Amberlisecharmedtomeetyou or whatever the hell weird Yankee name you�ve got�Scotland isn�t in England.

AMBERLISE
Yes it is.
(Looks to Aisha for reassurance. Aisha shakes her head)
I knew that, I was just testing Madison here.

DANIEL
Why would you need to test her?

AMBERLISE
She�s not like the rest of us you see, gotta keep her up to the beat. I mean, she�s only just realised the 80�s are over.

Madison looks down at herself and the floor

MADISON
I�I just remembered I�m�tired. It was nice meeting you.

She rushes out avoiding eye contact with Amberlise who�s grinning.

DANIEL
Dee wait!

He follows leaving Amberlise rejected.

She turns to the bar to see a grinning Chantelle who continues working when she�s caught by her.

AMBERLISE
Give me a martini.

Chantelle pours the drink then knocks it over Amberlise� suede jacket.

CHANTELLE
Parkinson�s?

[CUT TO.]

[EXT � PUB NIGHT]

Madison is quick pacing down the road.

Daniel runs out after her.

DANIEL
Oi!

She stops and turns

MADISON
What?

As he catches up with her she continues to walk with him at her side.

DANIEL
Why are you leaving?

MADISON
Why?

DANIEL
It�s early, it just seemed a bit odd.

MADISON
Yeah, well that�s me.

DANIEL
What�s that girls problem?

MADISON
She�s a bitch.

DANIEL
So tell her.

MADISON
Yeah right.

DANIEL
You�re not in School Dee, why are you letting her get away with that.

MADISON
Because it�s how the story goes, the shy girl meets the guy and the popular girl steals him away.

DANIEL
Would I be that guy?

MADISON
Possibly.

Madison continues to walk Daniel follows shortly after. He grabs her by the arm and spins her round.

DANIEL
Well, I�m not �that guy� that girl, she�s just another factory made former cheerleader with fake hair, why would I be interested in that?

MADISON
Why wouldn�t you be?

DANIEL
She�s not you.

Madison blushes

MADISON
I really should be going, I am actually kinda tired.

DANIEL
I understand that�s cool. I�ll give you a call sometime?

MADISON
Whatever, you�ve got my number.

He holds her by each arm and stares her in the face.

DANIEL
I �WILL� call you.

He walks off backwards, watching her the entire time as she walks slowly down the road.

[CUT TO.]

[EXT � STUDENT HOUSE � NIGHT]

Madison is about to put her key into the door as she hears a shuffling.

She looks around her but sees nothing.

A crash follows from the side of the house.

Madison slowly creeps round, looking carefully around her.

MADISON
Who. Who�s there?

She sees a small cat jump out from behind the bin. Making her practically jump out of her skin. She smiles a sigh of relief and turns round.

MADISON
Aaaaaaaaaaaah.

SCOTT
You shouldn�t wonder around dark alleys alone at night.

MADISON
You ever think that you shouldn�t sneak up on people who are wondering around dark alleys at night?

SCOTT
This is my property young lady. I�m just checking the grounds.

MADISON
For what?

SCOTT
That would be telling wouldn�t it.

Scott looks around then begins to walk off a few seconds before Madison follows looking rather disturbed.

[CUT TO.]

[INT. STUDENT HOUSE � NIGHT]

Madison and Scott are sat in the common room.

Scott is drinking whisky whilst listening and humming to Vivaldi four seasons.

Madison is reading a book called �Highland Cries�

MADISON
You a big classical music fan Mr. McQueen?

SCOTT
Love it, Kiri is wonderful. Great for the ears.

Madison smiles at his enthusiasm.

SCOTT
Do you read a lot of books?

MADISON
Not really, I got this one today, since you started talking about the Banshee last night. It�s really interesting.

SCOTT
Of course the book never tells it like it is.

MADISON
It doesn�t?
(Humouring him)
How is it then?

SCOTT
Oh, I�ve no doubt you�ll find out as much as you like about the story during you stay here. Good person to ask is a local woman named Mary.

MADISON
Why?

SCOTT
Just, go into the bakery one-day. But you may want to study sign language first. She�s death, has been for years.

MADISON
Let me guess, she encountered this Banshee

SCOTT
Something like that

MADISON
You really do believe in all of it don�t you

SCOTT
It�s not a case of believing, it�s a case of knowing

MADISON
So you�ve seen this Banshee creature?

SCOTT
Never with my own eyes. On that note, they�re heavy and I�m off to bed, Good night, and sleep�with earplugs in.

He smiles at her and laughs wickedly

SCOTT
Earplugs, classic
(Said to himself as he walks upstairs humming)

Madison sits still thinking. She glares at the book cover looking deep in though.

[CUT TO.]

[EXT. PUB NIGHT]

Amberlise stumbles out drunkenly. She begins to wonder off towards the student house falling over a few times.

She pulls a cigarette from her purse and is about to light it as she hears a howling.

AMBERLISE
Hello?

She glares around before screaming. Tony, Sandy and others stumble past her drunk and shouting.

TONY
Don�t pee your pants Amber.

AMBERLISE
Eat shit.

The group continues to walk off until out of sight.

Amberlise� lighter isn�t working. She shakes it. Before dropping her cigarette on the floor.

AMBERLISE
Shit.

She crouches down and picks it up, staying squatted to light her cigarette she hears a faint howling in the background.

AMBERLISE
Tony stop being an asshole for 5 seconds.

[SWITCH TO.]

Madison is sat up in bed, lights off, but very awake. She moves to the window as she hears a light howling in the background.

[SWITCH TO.]

Amberlise is stood smoking, she begins to walk at a great pace. She jumps as a car skids past her, petrol dripping from the exhaust.

It plashes through a puddle getting her wet.

AMBERLISE
THANK YOU!! Prick.

The howling is getting louder

AMBERLISE
Argh, British are idiots they can�t even turn off their own car alarms�and I�m talking to myself.

[SWITCH TO.]

Madison stares out into the hills as she sees an illuminated figure dashing down at great speed, so fast it looks like a speeding car.

[SWITCH TO.]

Amberlise is stood as the howling gets louder and closer.

[SWITCH TO.]
Madison throws her jacket on and runs out of the house

[SWITCH TO.]

Amberlise is looking towards the light heading to her at great speed.

[SWITCH TO.]

Daniel, Aisha and Chantelle start walking out of the pub. Chantelle locks up.

DANIEL
You want us to walk you back to the house?

AISHA
Hell yeah! I am not walkin� round no strange haunted town alone. What�s that noise?

CHANTELLE
Why does nobody round here ever turn off their alarms?

[SWITCH TO.]

Madison sprinting up the stone road.

[SWITCH TO.]

Daniel, Chantelle and Aisha walking round the corner.

AISHA
Is that Madison running at Amber? I told you she was crazy.
(beat)
AMBER! Hey!

Amberlise looks over at them then looks back at the light coming at her, getting faster.

DANIEL
What�s she looking at?

The group and Madison freeze in their tracks as the light flashes past Amberlise and vanishes.

Amberlise is stood for a half second, covered in blood, gutted and cut up she drops to the ground, her cigarette lands in the petrol and up in flames she goes.

Madison spins to the floor covering her mouth to not throw up.

Aisha screams and turns into Daniel�s arms. Chantelle goes wide eyes and into shock as they stare at the flames.

[MIX TO.]

[EXT. DAY]

Police cars and students gather at the site.

Madison is sat on a bench opposite the chaos. She looks out at Aisha crying on Tony�s shoulder.

She pulls her book out and stares at the cover before staring at the bakery and the old woman watching from the window.

[INT. BAKERY � DAY]

Madison enters the bakery and poorly acts as though she�s looking at bread. Clearly she is spying the shop worker.

The woman spots her as she needs her dough, Madison sharply looks to the floor before grabbing a loaf and taking it to the counter.

The woman weighs the bread and wraps it in paper before bagging it and handing it to Madison who�s looking around the shop anxiously.

LADY
Sixty pence

Madison doesn�t react

LADY
Miss!

Madison looks up alerted

LADY
That�ll be sixty pence

MADISON
What?
(Realises)
Right, sorry

Madison roots through her purse whilst looking around.

MADISON
There was an old.

She�s cut off before she can finish

LADY
Miss, with no disrespect, you�re clearly not from these parts but this thing, it ain�t uncommon so don�t be going and asking folk what they know.

MADISON
Know, it�s just�

LADY
I know what it was just, you just though you�d ask strange old lady Evelyn if she knew anything about the accident last night, well she don�t.

MADISON
But I�

LADY
(Angry)
End of discussion

MADISON
I�m sorry. It� just that I heard�

LADY
End
(Serious beat)
Of discussion.

Madison looks at her unease as she pounds her fists into the uncooked bread.

LADY
Now, if you don�t mind. I�ve got work to do.

MADISON
Right, I�ll be leaving�again, I�m sorry.

As Madison leaves the Woman calls after her, ignored.

LADY
You tell them tourist friends of yours to keep the noise down at the evening!
(Takes a breath of discomfort)
Damn kids.

[CUT TO.]

[EXT � BAKERY � DAY]

Madison steps outside and takes in a deep breath as she flicks her attention over to the press.

Through the mass her eyes clock onto the old woman, who immediately turns to leave As Madison attempts to follow.

Madison is caught in the crowd of press as she attempts to weave through the sea of arms and bodies to get to the old woman.

By the time Madison gets to the other side of the mass, the woman is nowhere to be seen.

She scans the horizon before sighing disappointment.
