Characters-
Katherine (final girl)
- Jason (Murderer/ victim)
- Tyler (victim)
- Jacob (victim)
Katherine, an extremely fanatic horror fan
and Goth, collects oddities and strange items from the Victorian era to add to
her growing collection. She is also into abandoned or spooky areas, and with
her 3 friends Jason, Tyler and Jacob she visits an abandoned hospital to help
fill her horror hunger. Whilst there, she locates a small gothic pendant/
necklace that she keeps to add to her collection. The pendant is small and
silver with Lovecraftian patterns adorning the surface. She shows it around to
all of her friends and they then leave. However, when the 4 part ways to return
home, Katherine realises she’s being followed by a cloaked man with a deformed
white face. She manages to escape home and the cloaked man doesn’t return. She
adds the pendant to her collection and drifts off to sleep.
During the same night, Jason is walking home
and gets attacked by the same man with a scalpel. The man then performs surgery
on Jason. When discovered Jason is a heaving mass of lumps and dead flesh, and
completely brain dead. Katherine and gang mourn Jason for the day, and
Katherine believes strongly it was the cloaked man. Jacob and Tyler don’t
believe her, until they are then attacked again by the cloaked man. Everyone
escapes him but Jacob is wounded. The notice the killer wears a plague doctor
mask from the 1400s. They then attempt to look up the killer and realise he was
connected with the hospital, which was abandoned after a string of failed
surgeries and mysterious murders. They continue to look him up and notice that
find out that in every piece of evidence the plague doctor there always seems
to be a mention of two things; a great plague and the pendant.
They make the connection that the killer
stalks and kills those who’ve touched the pendant. Suddenly Jacob starts to
throw up and when he lifts his head it is covered in blotches. They start to
burst, and when he falls to his knees in weakness the doctor is standing behind
him. Tyler and Katherine watch in horror as the doctor performs surgery on
Jacob and cuts out a strange writhing black thing from his stomach.
They both run away but Tyler gets caught in
the last second. Katherine, the only survivor left, runs to her house and picks
up her collection. She takes the pendant and tries to board up her house. The
plague doctor breaks his way in and Katherine tries to avoid him whilst also
trying to capture or kill him. In the end he pins her to the wall and attempts
to stab her. In the last second she rips off his mask, showing a hideous zombie
like creature. Without saying a word the doctor then slits his own throat.
After breathing a sigh of relief, she notices his medicine bag and looks
through it. In a small doctors journal found within, she suddenly realises that
he was trying to administer a cure for the dark plague that was passed around
by the pendant, and that his gas mask was the only thing that he believed would
protect him from the infection (hence why he killed himself, he didn’t want to
die of infection). Katherine suddenly puts her hands to her face and realises
it’s covered in blotches. She then dies of the infection.
Police come the next day and forensics takes
the pendant. It ends with a news report of a growing plague.
