-(announcer) There's a house in Beverly Hills
famous amongst criminals for being easy to break into.
Tonight, two amateur burglars have this home in their sights.
BlackBoxTV Presents: The Girl in the Basement.
[electro house music playing, leaves rustling]
-All right. I'll go around back.
-You sure this is the right place?
-Yeah, this is the right place. What are you, scared?
-No, I just--
-Look, my guy says this place is an easy score, okay?
These people are loaded, but their security system is ***.
All right? -Okay.
-All right. Masks down.
Let's go.
-Congratulations on another amazing year.
-Six years in a row.
-I'm so proud of you.
-We've done all right for ourselves. Haven't we?
I'll go get some more.
[insects chirping]
[dog barking in distance]
-What the-- [gasps]
[woman whimpering, burglar grunts]
-Come on, tape her up, let's go. -[whimpering loudly]
-Shut up. Hey, wake up.
-[grunts softly]
-Look at me.
A safe. Do you have a safe in this place?
-No. There's-- credit card... checkbook in the office.
-What the *** are we gonna do with a check?
-Hey, keep tapin'.
-Quiet!
-(faint voice) Help me.
-Shh, hey, stop. Did you hear something?
-What?
[woman whimpering]
-I'm gonna go downstairs.
Stay up here and watch them.
[swift sound]
[door creaks]
[faint weeping]
Hey! Hey, come out of there!
-[delicate voice]: It's been so long since anyone came to see me.
[dramatic music cue]
***.
Come on.
Little girl, I got your parents upstairs. Don't make me hurt them.
-Those aren't my parents.
[echoing rumble]
[deep ethereal music plays]
-***!
-(girl) Please don't leave.
[ominous screech]
Come to me.
[gun chamber clicks]
[woman gasping]
[demonic echo]: Don't be afraid.
As long as they keep coming to me,
I won't have to come for you.
-(announcer) There is no such thing as an easy score.
It is an illusion,
and in this particular story, a trap laid by a demon
who feeds on greed.
