INT. BASEMENT STONE WALLS COBWEBS HAVE TAKEN OVER.  STRANGELY
               CLOSE TO THE CENTER OF THE ROOM IS AN OLD HEATER.  

               Light dimly lights the steps to the basement.  At the top of
               the steps the door opens spilling light onto the steps.  The
               shadow of a figure is cast down the steps.

               Nikki 23, walks down the steps.  In her arms is a laundry
               basket with dirty laundry and a package of light bulbs.  

               Nikki sits down her laundry. 

                                                                CUT TO:



               ACROSS THE ROOM A SHADOW MOVES FROM THE WALL AND ACROSS THE
               FLOOR

                                                                CUT TO:

               NIKKI UNSCREWS A LIGHT BULB

                                                                CUT TO:

               THE SHADOW MOVES BEHIND NIKKI AS SHE UNSCREWS THE LIGHT BULB

                                                                CUT TO:

               NICKI BENDS DOWN AND SITS THE OLD BULB DOWN AND RETRIEVES THE
               NEW BULB.  THE SHADOW HAS BEGUN TO FORM INTO A FIGURE BEHIND
               HER.

                                                                CUT TO:



               CLOSE UP ON NIKKI SCREWING IN THE BULB

                                                                CUT TO:



               THE FIGURE HAS FORMED INTO A HORRIFYING IMAGE OF A DECAYED
               AND MENICING LOOKING FIGURE.  

                                                                CUT TO:



               CLOSE UP NIKKI FUMBLES THE BULB

                                                                CUT TO:



               THE FIGURE HAS COMPLETELY FORMED AND REACHES A DECAYED HAND
               TOWARD NIKKI.

                                                                CUT TO:



               THE BULB FLASHES ON AS IT IS SEATED IN THE SOCKET.

                                                                CUT TO:



               WIDER ANGLE THE LIGHTS CAUSE THE SHADOW TO DISSAPPEAR.  NIKKI
               PICKS UP HER LAUNDRY AND TURNS TO WHERE THE FIGURE STOOD ONLY
               MOMENTS AGO.
