Mayday, Mayday, Mayday.
Coastguard, are you receiving? It's 10:47pm, we're out in a storm about

(00:44):
10 miles off the coast of Whitby, out of view of the shore, we've lost power.
Is anybody there?
The captain and his crewmate are missing, can't work out where,
the lifeboat's still attached at the back of the boat.

(01:05):
We're a group of five, none of us have any experience with driving boats.
Anyone at all?
I've never seen waves like this.
Oh god it's there again!

(01:26):
Oh god, no!
Mayday, Mayday, Mayday.
Coastguard, are you receiving? It's 10:47pm, we're out in a storm about

(01:48):
10 miles off the coast of Whitby, out of view of the shore, we've lost power.
Is anybody there?
The captain and his crewmate are missing, can't work out where,
the lifeboat's still attached at the back of the boat.

(02:09):
We're a group of five... wait...
I've already made this call.
Amy, get the others to join us, something weird is going on up here.
Oh god, it's there again!

(02:30):
Oh god, no!
Mayday, Mayday, Mayday.
Coastguard, are you receiving?
It's 10:47pm, we're out in a storm about 10 miles off the coast of Whitby, out of view of the shore,

(02:56):
We're in darkness. There's no power.
What's happening?
I'm repeating the same call over and over. Amy, where are the others?
They're still down below?

(03:21):
We need to get them up here and work out what...
I've never seen waves like this.
Oh god, it's there again!
Oh god, no!

(03:49):
Mayday, Mayday, Mayday.
Coastguard, are you receiving? It's 10:47pm,
we're out in a storm about 10 miles off the coast of Whitby, out of view of the shore...
I can't do this.
Amy, call them all up here.
It's the summoning.

(04:10):
It lives here.
They need to stop, something's gone wrong.
What do you mean 'they're not there'?
Where have they gone?
I've never seen waves like this.

(04:34):
Oh god, it's there again!
Oh god, no!
Mayday, Mayday, Mayday.

(04:55):
Coastguard, are you receiving? It's 10:47...
It's hopeless.
I'm reborn into this moment again and again, our lives are no longer our own.
Amy? Amy, where are you?

(05:15):
She's gone.
I'm alone.
Somebody please respond!
We didn't know what we were doing, we didn't know the powers that we were toying with,
it was just a bit of fun!
Find the coordinates, draw the symbols, recite the summoning spell.

(05:36):
None of us actually believe in that stuff!
It's here.
It's time.

(05:57):
Mayday
Join us... down below... in darkness... lives... power... I'm reborn.
Mayday
Join us... down below... in darkness... lives... power... I'm reborn.

(06:27):
