**Inferno's Call**

Title: **Inferno's Call**

**Prologue:**

Darkness cloaks the sleepy town of Hallows End, casting long shadows over its streets and homes. Whispers of the supernatural have long echoed through the corners of this seemingly serene place, but it isn’t until now that the true horrors will unveil themselves.

**Act 1: The Calling**

**Scene 1:**

Overhead shot of a dilapidated mansion on the outskirts of town. The camera slowly zooms into the second floor where a group of friends have gathered. There’s SARAH, the skeptical one; MIKE, the jock; LISA, the shy bookworm; MATT, the joker; and EMILY, the goth, who’s been obsessed with the occult ever since her older brother disappeared without a trace the year before.

**Sarah:** (puffing on a cigarette) "Okay, Emily, what’s with the cryptic texts? And why drag us to this creepy dump?"

**Emily:** (lighting candles in a ritualistic circle) "Call me crazy, but I think I’ve found a way to contact... them."

**Mike:** (popping a beer can) "Them? Who’re we talking about here? Aliens?"

**Emily:** "No... something worse. Demons. Specifically, a group called the I.M.P. They’re rumored to be merciless and can be summoned under the right conditions."

**Lisa:** (nervously) "Are you sure this is a good idea?"

**Matt:** (half joking) "Hey, as long as they don’t have WiFi problems in Hell, I’m in."

They commence the ritual, not fully understanding the consequences of their actions. Each recites a line from the dark tome Emily has procured. As they finish, the air chills, and shadows seem to writhe on the walls. Visibly shaken, they back away from the circle.

**Emily:** (whispering) "It is done."

**Act 2: The Summoning**

**Scene 2:**

Back in Hell, BLITZO, MOXXIE, MILLIE, and LOONA are lounging at their infamous office when they receive an unexpected summons.

**Blitzo:** (eyes gleaming) "Well, well, seems like we’ve got ourselves some curious mortals. Let’s give them the grand tour of Hell."

**Loona:** (rolling her eyes) "Or we can just scare their souls out of their bodies and get back to what matters."

**Millie:** (grinning) "I like the sound of that."

**Moxxie:** "Let's just be careful. We don’t want to get caught by any higher-ups. We've had enough warnings."

**Blitzo:** (smirking) "Relax, Mox. We'll be in and out, quick and clean. Let's make ‘em regret ever calling for us."

Their transition to the mortal realm is violent and sudden. The friends watch in horror as a portal appears in the center of the room, spewing hellish flames and a sulfurous stench. Through the fire and smoke, Blitzo strides forward, flanked by Moxxie, Millie, and Loona.

**Blitzo:** "Heya, meat sacks. You rang?"

**Act 3: The Unfolding Horror**

**Scene 3:**

The friends try to flee, but the mansion seems to twist and reshape itself under the demons' power, trapping them inside. Blitzo and his crew take turns stalking, toying, and terrorizing each group member.

**Emily:** (hiding, clutching her tome) "This isn’t how it was supposed to happen!"

**Blitzo:** (from the shadows) "What did you expect? A friendly chat with Hell’s finest? We aren’t exactly known for our hospitality."

As the night progresses, each friend faces gruesome fates. Blood and gore splatter the mansion's once-charming walls as Blitzo and Millie embark on a gore-filled killing spree. Moxxie's sadistic side emerges as he traps Mike in a twisted, inescapable scenario, relishing his screams. Meanwhile, Loona prowls, her wolfish eyes catching the terrified gaze of Sarah before snapping her neck in a swift motion.

**Mike:** (desperate, bleeding) "Why are you doing this?"

**Moxxie:** (tilting his head, a chilling smile on his face) "Because it's fun. And because we can."

Broken, bloodied, and betrayed by her own curiosity, Emily attempts a final stand. She uses the tome to try and reverse the summoning. The incantation seems to have an effect, and the demons roar in anger as they begin to be drawn back to Hell.

**Blitzo:** "You think you’ve won? Enjoy your victory while you can, kid. We’ll be back. And next time, you won’t be so lucky."

With one last scream, the demons are pulled back, leaving a shattered Emily amidst the corpses of her friends.

**Act 4: The Aftermath**

**Scene 4:**

Emily stands alone in the ruined mansion, drenched in her friends' blood, the tome clutched in her trembling hands. She stumbles out just as dawn breaks, knowing she'll spend the rest of her life haunted by what she unleashed.

**Voiceover (Emily):** "Some doors should never be opened. Some knowledge is too dark to uncover. And some screams... will echo forever."

As she collapses on the mansion steps, the screen fades to black. But just as the credits begin to roll, the faint sound of Blitzo's mocking laughter lingers in the background, a chilling promise of their inevitable return.
