Script Exert

The horror film Pen Pals is now being written! Here's a script exert! Enjoy!!

A pale white smoke is pulled from the mouths of Cailin and Zoey in their sleep. Cut to blackness.

Cailin is standing in front of a mirror. Camera over her shoulder.

Cailin: Time to start the day!

No sound leaves her mouth.

Cailin: Silent scream

Zoey is standing in front of a mirror. Camera over her shoulder.

Zoey: Good morning world!

No sound leaves her mouth.

Zoey: Silent scream

Zoey turns on computer. Types up a message. Prints it. A white fog leaves the computer as it prints. Shows it to mom. It says:

Zoey: My voice is gone.

Janine: Zoey you probably just have a sore throat. It will be fine.

Zoey: Writes. It’s really gone. Totally gone. Forever.

Janine: Just try and say something. You’re fine!

Zoey: Hi Mom.

Silence

Janine: I’ll call the doctor.

Cailin attempts to type something on the computer. And nothing appears. She grabs a pencil, and she writes a message to her parents.

Cailin: I can’t speak. I can’t even type on the computer.

Ben: The doctors on his way.

Cailin: How did you know?

Ben: Zoey’s parents called. The same thing happened to her.
