INT.

HENLEY TRAIN STATION - NIGHT

The train station stands in silence under the dim glow of flickering overhead lights. A thick
fog rolls in shrouding the platforms. The only sound is the distant wising of the wind.
INT. HENLEY TRAIN STATION - TICKET BOOTH - NIGHT

CLAIRE
(early 30s, anxious) sits alone in the ticket booth, checking her watch nervously. The station
is empty except for her. She hears faint footsteps echoing through the station but sees no one.
CLAIRE
(whispering to herself)
Where is everyone?
Suddenly, the ticket booth window SLAMS shut. Claire jumps back in terror.

INT. HENLEY TRAIN STATION - PLATFORM – NIGHT

Claire cautiously exits the booth and steps onto the platform. She hears eerie whispers and
sees ghostly apparitions flicker in and out of existence. Panic sets in as she realizes she's not
alone.
CLAIRE
(voice trembling)
Who's there?

INT. HENLEY TRAIN STATION - UNDERGROUND TUNNEL – NIGHT

Claire, now in full panic, enters a dimly lit underground tunnel. The whispering voices grow
louder, and the walls seem to close in around her. She turns to run back but finds herself face-
to-face with a terrifying being.
(SPIRIT)
(whispers, chilling)
You shouldn't have come here.

Claire stumbles back onto the platform, desperately searching for an escape. The spirits
surround her, closing in. Just as they reach out to grab her, the platform begins to SHAKE
violently.

The train station building CRUMBLES to the ground as a massive TRAIN, covered in eerie,
glowing symbols, bursts through the fog. The spirits dissipate in fear.

resembling ghosts, stare blankly ahead. She finds an empty seat, and the train starts moving.

As Claire moves deeper into the train, she encounters strange passengers: a CONDUCTOR
with hollow eyes and a TICKET COLLECTOR who never blinks.

(slowly)
Next stop, your destination.
Claire's fear intensifies as she realizes the train is headed to a place beyond her imagination.

INT. HENLEY TRAIN - ABANDONED STATION - NIGHT

The train screeches to a halt at an abandoned station. Claire disembarks and the station is
covered in thick vines and darkness. The spirits from earlier surround her again, guiding her
towards a cryptic door.
SPIRIT
(whispers, guiding)
Open the door to your fate.

INT. HENLEY TRAIN - UNDERGROUND CHAMBER – NIGHT

Claire, trembling, opens the cryptic door. Inside, she discovers an ANCIENT RITUAL being
performed by the spirits. The ritual involves a terrifying, otherworldly ENTITY that begins to
manifest.
CLAIRE
(voice trembling)
What have you done?
The entity, now partially formed, turns towards Claire with malevolent intent.

Claire's face reflects sheer terror as the train speeds towards an uncertain, otherworldly
destination.
FADE OUT

(in a sinister, echoing voice)

You are here to become one with me.
Claire, trembling but resolute, resists the entity's pull.
CLAIRE
(fighting back fear)
I won't become a part of your nightmare!

INT. HENLEY TRAIN - SHOWDOWN - NIGHT

A climactic battle ensues as Claire confronts the entity. She uses her sheer
determination and wit to fight back, uncovering ancient symbols that can weaken the
entity.

Claire, still shaken, returns to the ticket booth. She glances at her watch, realizing that
time in this otherworldly ordeal has been different.
CLAIRE
(realizing)
Was it all a dream?
As she ponders this, the TICKET COLLECTOR, now normal, approaches.
TICKET COLLECTOR
(smiles warmly)
You're the first to return from the Henley Horror Express. Welcome back.
Claire exits the booth, a mix of relief and uncertainty on her face, as she leaves the
enigmatic Henley train station behind.
FADE OUT
