Dr. Julian Karswell:
Ha ha, snakes and ladders. An English game, you wouldn't know it. You see, if you land at the foot of the ladder you climb all the way to the top. But if you land on the head of the snake, you slide all the way down again. Funny thing, I always preferred sliding down the snakes to climbing up the ladders. You're a doctor of psychology, you ought to know the answer to that. Dr. John Holden:
Maybe you're a good loser. Dr. Julian Karswell:

Snakes and Ladders. An English game.
You wouldn't know it.
00:00:05.836 --> 00:00:09.204
You see, if you land at the foot
of the ladder, you climb up to the top.
00:00:09.274 --> 00:00:11.719
But if you land on the head of a snake,
you slide all the way down again.
00:00:11.743 --> 00:00:13.743
Funny thing.
00:00:13.812 --> 00:00:17.084
I always preferred sliding down
the snakes to climbing up the ladders.
00:00:17.095 --> 00:00:20.428
You're a doctor of psychology.
You ought to know the answer to that.
00:00:20.452 --> 00:00:22.785
Maybe you're a good loser.
00:00:22.856 --> 00:00:26.223
I'm not, you know. Not a bit.
00:00:29.396 --> 00:00:32.126
Just how much do you know
about this book that you're after?
00:00:32.199 --> 00:00:35.727
Not very much. Only that Professor
Harrington referred to it in his notes.
00:00:35.804 --> 00:00:38.083
A remarkable work. The few men
that really understood it...
00:00:38.907 --> 00:00:41.057
learned many strange
and terrifying secrets.
00:00:41.644 --> 00:00:44.977
Only a few?
Is it that hard to understand?
00:00:45.997 --> 00:00:47.516
I spent my life
trying to decipher it.
00:00:47.584 --> 00:00:49.896
The ancient sorcerers
who wrote it knew their information...
00:00:49.092 --> 00:00:53.001
was far too valuable to entrust
to any known language.
00:00:53.001 --> 00:00:55.389
I didn't realize
what I was asking for.
00:00:56.961 --> 00:00:59.157
You don't believe in witchcraft?
00:00:59.231 --> 00:01:01.529
Do you?
00:01:01.006 --> 00:01:05.001
Do I believe in witchcraft?
What kind of witchcraft?
00:01:05.739 --> 00:01:08.999
The legendary witch that rides
on the imaginary broom?
00:01:08.001 --> 00:01:10.744
The hex that tortures
the thoughts of the victim?
00:01:10.812 --> 00:01:13.508
The pin stuck in the image
that wastes away the mind and body?
00:01:13.581 --> 00:01:15.392
Also imaginary.
00:01:15.416 --> 00:01:18.477
But where does imagination end
and reality begin?
00:01:18.554 --> 00:01:20.465
What is this twilight...
00:01:20.489 --> 00:01:24.221
this half-world of the mind that
you profess to know so much about?
