What kind of a thing is it? (taglines)
Agor Singh
[edit]- A little knowledge of the occult is dangerous. Unless it's used for good, disaster will follow its wake. That is Cosmic Law!
Dr. Lynne Harper
[edit]- My study of the mind has convinced me how little we know of its powers.
Curt Ingston
[edit]- When a person questions her own sanity, it's a good sign she's not far from normal.
Margaret Ingston
[edit]- How many of us are sane? You wouldn't know, but I shall soon.
- Blood... the whole house reeks of it. The air is charged with death and hatred and something that's unclean!
Constable Cap Beggs
[edit]- Skeletons don't bleed.
- Well, dog my cats!
Dialogue
[edit]- Dick Baldwin: [discussing the murders] It all seemed to start with that skeleton of Agor Singh's.
- Const. Cap Beggs: You know, that's good enough for me. I'm gonna arrest that Hindu if I never see the back of my neck.
- Dick Baldwin: How is that the blood didn't dematerialize with the rest?
- Agor Singh: There are certain details in the process that we are not allowed to explain to the uninitiated.
- Milly Carson: [reacting to Laurie's stopping the car by the side of a deserted road] What's this for - as if I didn't know?
- Laurie: How is it dames always know what's on a guy's mind before he knows himself?
- Sarah Judd: [trapped in burning room] Unlock that door you fool! Do you want to die?
- Margaret Ingston: Yes! You and Kurt don't deserve to live, and I don't want to!
