Humans have
conducted research on the paranormal as long as they’ve known of spirits. It is
currently the early 1900s and an exorcist by the name of Emmanuel enters an abandoned
hospital to search not only for spirits, but for a supposed door to Heaven or
hell. He walks through the facility while strongly gripping his cross. The
hospital feels way more different than it did before when Emmanuel was walking
through it with the owner. Something or someone is watching him from the
corners of darkness to see what he does. Noises and voices echo throughout the
building. Some make Emmanuel follow them while others make him go in another
direction.
A bright light
down in the basement gets him to walk down and he finds that the entire floor
has been burned, which is strange because the hospital never suffered a fire.
He finds charred corpses stuck in metal restraints that are uncomfortable to
say the least. Some have spikes that dig through their skin, some in terrible
positions while others are roasted above a fire. Loud screams of agony echo
throughout the realm and never seem to stop. Emmanuel tries to find a way out,
but is stopped by the sight of two demonic creatures who are approaching him.
Fearing for his soul, he runs the other way and the creatures give chase. The
crawl all over the ceiling while lunging at him to try to slow him down. Once
they get the opportunity, they attack him, but the cross he’s carrying shields
him from their blows. He manages to escape the basement and once he looks back,
he sees that the basement is no longer charred so he catches his breath for the
moment.
Emmanuel isn’t out
of the woods, however, as the demons appear to be invisible, but the marks they
make on the walls can still be seen. He stops himself from cursing before
running again, this time running upstairs hoping that this will lead to Heaven.
With each passing flight of stairs, that possibility seems less and less likely
especially with the demons constantly bugging him with their attacks and
taunts. Once he gets to the roof, he finds that the scenery hasn’t changed in
the slightest and the demons catch up to him. With nowhere else to go, he
blesses himself and readies himself for a fight. Since the demons are invisible,
he can only get a few lucky hits in while the demons try to push him off the roof
since they can’t physically harm him. He gets pushed further and further to the
edge until he’s hanging by the edge. The demons don’t allow him to climb up and
keep stomping on the shield protecting him to make the force of it make him fall.
Suddenly, the sky brightens and the demons are seemingly taken out, but Emmanuel
is still losing his grip.
He finally falls an
invisible hand tries to catch him and he falls down several stories. Everything
in his body hurts now with multiple bruises, cuts, and broken bones. Thinking he’s
going to die, he manages to hold his cross to his chest and says a little prayer.
A light envelops him which allows him to get up and walk without much pain. The
same light begins to guide him, but it guides him away from the closest town. Emmanuel
begins to doubt the light and this is when a person driving a car comes by to help
him and he is driven off to a hospital. It is discovered that Emmanuel’s legs are
broken and he shouldn’t have been able to walk much less survive the fall. He’s
confined to a wheelchair now, but he still manages to get around to places. Places
where he preaches the dangers of forcing the paranormal aspects of the world to
interact with you. He is even more faithful now than ever before since he feels
protected by the light, but every now and then, he sees dark figures with glowing
red eyes in the corner of his eyes.
