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

0:44

10 miles off the coast of Whitby, out of view of the shore, we've lost power.

0:51

Is anybody there? The captain and his crewmate are missing, can't work out where,

1:00

the lifeboat's still attached at the back of the boat.

1:05

We're a group of five, none of us have any experience with driving boats.

1:12

Anyone at all? I've never seen waves like this.

1:22

Oh god it's there again!

1:26

Oh god, no!

1:41

Mayday, Mayday, Mayday.

1:43

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

1:48

10 miles off the coast of Whitby, out of view of the shore, we've lost power.

1:55

Is anybody there? The captain and his crewmate are missing, can't work out where,

2:04

the lifeboat's still attached at the back of the boat.

2:09

We're a group of five... wait...

2:12

I've already made this call. Amy, get the others to join us, something weird is going on up here.

2:26

Oh god, it's there again! Oh god, no!

2:45

Mayday, Mayday, Mayday.

2:47

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,

2:56

We're in darkness. There's no power.

3:04

What's happening? I'm repeating the same call over and over. Amy, where are the others?

3:14

They're still down below?

3:21

We need to get them up here and work out what... I've never seen waves like this.

3:30

Oh god, it's there again! Oh god, no!

3:49

Mayday, Mayday, Mayday.

3:51

Coastguard, are you receiving? It's 10:47pm,

3:55

we're out in a storm about 10 miles off the coast of Whitby, out of view of the shore...

4:00

I can't do this. Amy, call them all up here.

4:07

It's the summoning. It lives here.

4:14

They need to stop, something's gone wrong.

4:17

What do you mean 'they're not there'?

4:22

Where have they gone?

4:28

I've never seen waves like this. Oh god, it's there again!

4:38

Oh god, no!

4:53

Mayday, Mayday, Mayday.

4:55

Coastguard, are you receiving? It's 10:47...

4:59

It's hopeless. I'm reborn into this moment again and again, our lives are no longer our own.

5:11

Amy? Amy, where are you?

5:15

She's gone. I'm alone.

5:20

Somebody please respond!

5:24

We didn't know what we were doing, we didn't know the powers that we were toying with,

5:30

it was just a bit of fun! Find the coordinates, draw the symbols, recite the summoning spell.

5:36

None of us actually believe in that stuff!

5:41

It's here. It's time.

5:57

Mayday Join us... down below... in darkness... lives... power... I'm reborn.

6:06
